Chapter 105 The Su Family

When Wang Shu heard these words, his mind buzzed. He should have expected that anyone who could afford a luxury car like a Rolls-Royce would surely be rich or noble. And he had already learned that Xiao Su’s true identity was that of a wealthy young lady. Had Xiao Su gone out without her family’s permission? Wang Shu couldn’t help but wonder. However, since she had been taken away by her father, there was no danger. He could finally catch his breath and rest. Under the confused gaze of the front desk lady, Wang Shu turned and returned to his room. "She was taken by her dad, I don't know her home, she won't blame me, right?" Wang Shu consoled himself. "Definitely not, she's a young lady from a rich family, she'll be enjoying herself back home. If that's the case, then it should be fine for me to go back to Hangcheng alone tomorrow, right!" With that thought, Wang Shu booked a plane ticket for himself and then slept soundly, with a clear conscience. ... In the capital, within a manor, Xiao Su also opened her hazy eyes. "Holy crap, how did I get home?" Xiao Su looked at the familiar surroundings and was stunned. Suddenly, she remembered that at noon, she had just opened the door at the hotel and seen two figures before losing consciousness. "It must be Dad's doing, hmph, but how did he know where I was?" Xiao Su muttered to herself. "You're staying at our family's hotel, you tell me how I found you?" Su Tong pushed open the door and said to his silly daughter. "What, the hotel I was staying at is also ours?" Xiao Su was taken aback, looking at her cheap old man with a dumbfounded expression. "You came to the capital and didn't even come home to see me, don't you think your old dad is more important than that Wang Shu fellow?" Su Tong looked at his obedient daughter, whom he had raised, with disappointment. He never expected that his darling daughter would be tricked away by that brat. "Dad, what are you thinking, I'm just Wang Shu's assistant, he's my boss!" Xiao Su pouted and defended herself. "Assistant? Why don't you come back and be my assistant?" Su Tong was even more infuriated upon hearing his daughter’s words. His family owned a vast hotel business, and he was the CEO of a multi-billion dollar hotel chain. Yet, his daughter was running off to be an assistant to some unknown, obscure celebrity. If the shareholders found out, he would be laughed to death at future meetings. "Dad, you're being unreasonable. If I don't go out and gain some experience, how can I take over your vast business empire in the future?" Xiao Su had a sudden inspiration and said to her old father. "Fine, say whatever you want. Anyway, you're not going out and messing around anymore. It's too dangerous outside!" Su Tong knew he couldn't argue with this mischievous girl, so he directly issued an order of confinement. "Dad, aren't you treating me like your canary in a cage? If I can't even overcome the dangers and hardships outside, how can I manage your business empire in the future?" Xiao Su, upon hearing that her dad was going to confine her, quickly grabbed his clothes and questioned him. "Who said you're going to manage my business empire? I'll find a son-in-law and marry you off, and this business empire will be your dowry!" Su Tong said to his lovely daughter with gritted teeth. He had actually considered this. Because he had doted on his daughter too much since she was little, he never expected her to inherit his business. To secure his current position, one needed to go through too much and face even more hardships. He didn't want his daughter to become like him. He just wanted his daughter to live a healthy and happy life. "Alright, dinner is ready. Get dressed and come down to eat!" Seeing his daughter fall silent, Su Tong finished speaking and left the room. ... "Sorry! The number you have dialed is temporarily unavailable!" "Sorry! The number you have dialed is temporarily unavailable!" "..." "Wang Shu, why aren't you answering my calls? Hurry up and save your little assistant!" After dinner, Xiao Su sat on her bed, constantly calling Wang Shu. But most of the time, the calls went unanswered, which made Xiao Su want to cry. Had her dad really decided to marry her off this time? But she hadn't even graduated yet! "Wang Shu, hurry and find me, or I'll become a married woman!" Xiao Su sent a WeChat message to Wang Shu. To her surprise, Wang Shu replied immediately. "Wouldn't that be more exciting?" Looking at the message from Wang Shu, Xiao Su was puzzled for a moment, but then a look of joy spread across her face. Wang Shu had finally received her plea for help. "Boss, please save your little assistant, I'm confined!" Xiao Su quickly dialed Wang Shu's number, begging him with a wronged tone. "If I save you, is there any benefit?" Wang Shu asked with interest. "As long as you can get me out, I, Su Yao, will serve you like a horse for the rest of my life!" Xiao Su said very seriously. "Okay, I've recorded this call. Don't go back on your word! Send me your current location via WeChat, and I'll be there right away!" Wang Shu said with a smile. "You recorded the call? Boss, you're too cunning!" Xiao Su couldn't help but pout, feeling like she had just escaped one trap only to fall into another. But it was still better than being confined in this manor like a canary, only to be married off to someone she didn't like. Wang Shu received the location from his little assistant and then went downstairs to hail a taxi and head to the destination. After more than an hour's journey, Wang Shu arrived near the location Xiao Su had sent him. However, as soon as he got out of the car, he realized that this place was completely different from what he had imagined. It was an incredibly vast manor. The surrounding walls were towering, topped with electric fences, and several security guards were stationed at the gate. Most outrageously, Wang Shu, standing outside the wall, was still several kilometers away in a straight line from Xiao Su’s location. "Damn it, rich people live too extravagantly!" Wang Shu couldn't help but complain. Although the security of the entire Su family manor was extremely stringent, it was not impossible for Wang Shu to get in. After all, he now possessed a Grandmaster-level martial arts heritage. While it wasn't as legendary as depicted in movies and novels, scaling a wall several meters high was still easy. To avoid detection, Wang Shu deliberately took a detour to a more secluded spot and then climbed over the wall, entering the manor grounds. To be sure, when Wang Shu entered the manor, he was once again amazed. Because this manor was like a small world in itself, with gardens, lakes, rockeries, parks, and amusement facilities. The buildings were all European-style, scattered in an orderly fashion throughout the manor. "Which building are you in? I'm inside!" Wang Shu messaged Xiao Su again. "You're inside? Really?" Su Yao was somewhat surprised upon seeing Wang Shu's message. Because she understood how strict the management of her family's manor was, it was hard for even a mosquito to fly in. How did Wang Shu, a sickly fellow, manage to get in? "Stop the nonsense, tell me your location quickly, or I'm leaving!" Wang Shu urged, still worried about being discovered later. "I'm in the tallest building in the southeast corner. I'm waiting for you downstairs!" Xiao Su replied excitedly. Then, she excitedly opened her room door and prepared to go downstairs. "Where are you going so late at night?" As soon as she stepped out of her room, her father's voice reached her ears. "I'm suffocating inside, I'm going down for a walk!" Fearing her father might suspect something, Su Yao went downstairs without even looking back. "Boss! Where are you?" "Boss, did you really get in?" "Hmph! I knew it was a lie, how could you possibly get in so easily! You big liar, Boss is such a big liar!" After going downstairs, Su Yao searched everywhere but couldn't find Wang Shu. Her mood instantly fell. She should have known Wang Shu wouldn't come looking for her, nor would he be able to climb over the wall to save her. Upstairs, Su Tong stood by the window, watching his silly daughter downstairs, and couldn't help but shake his head. What a joke, how could his manor be so easily scaled by an outsider? To prevent his daughter from escaping tonight, he had specifically increased the number of security patrols, raised the electric fence, and installed hundreds of surveillance cameras. As soon as any suspicious living being was detected, it would automatically trigger an alarm. He would know even if a mosquito flew in. Su Yao, disheartened, prepared to turn back, but just as she was about to turn, a hand covered her mouth and dragged her into a dark corner. "Who are you calling a big liar? I'm leaving myself then!" In the darkness, the person behind Su Yao said softly. "Boss, is that you?" Su Yao, who was initially very nervous, felt a surge of joy. She recognized Wang Shu's voice. "Who else would it be if not me?" Wang Shu released Xiao Su and said helplessly. "Wow, it's really you, how did you get in?" Xiao Su asked Wang Shu curiously. Because she believed that her family's manor security measures were basically world-class. It was impossible for an ordinary person to get in undetected! "I have my ways. The key is, how do you get out now?" Wang Shu looked at Su Yao in front of him and asked helplessly. With his strength, he could come and go freely in this manor. But Xiao Su couldn't. She was just an ordinary person.
