Su Wan's hand, which was holding the pen, suddenly clenched into a fist. She took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down. Then, she looked up at Xiao Mei and spoke in a soft voice, "What do you mean by not having enough money to pay for the endorsement fee? Didn't the Pei family just send over the second and third payments?"
"Yes, the money has been remitted, but the finance department said...said..." Xiaomei suddenly became hesitant and her eyes began to dart back and forth.
Su Wanwan frowned impatiently, "What are you saying? Speak quickly!"
Xiao Mei clenched her fists and turned back, saying, "They said that the chairman invested those two sums of money in a new project, so now the company has no more money."
New project?
Su Wanwan's whole body suddenly froze. Why hadn't she heard about any new project? Didn't the company only have one project now?
Grandfather.
Su Wanwan suddenly seemed to realize something, her heart inexplicably panicked, her hand trembling as she picked up the phone and dialed the chairman's office internal line. After a long time, no one answered, so she hung up and called the secretary's office again. Secretary Su immediately picked up the phone, and she hastily asked, "Is Grandfather in his office?"
"Manager Su, the chairman didn't come to the company today, he..."
Su Wanwan hadn't waited for Secretary Su to finish speaking before she directly hung up the phone, then stood up, grabbed her bag and walked towards the door.
Xiao Mei was startled and couldn't help but ask: "Wanwan jie, where are you going?"
Su Wanwan didn't stop walking as she spoke, "Cancel all my appointments for this afternoon, I need to go back to the old mansion."
-
Su Wan drove the car and almost flew back to Su's house.
Mrs. Li was overjoyed to see her return, "Miss, how did you come back? You didn't even tell me you were coming back, I could have made your favorite dish for you."
Su Wanwan didn't have the heart to chat with Li Ma, and directly got to the point, "Where's Grandpa?"
"The old man is upstairs."
Su Wanwan lifted her foot and directly rushed upstairs. She first went to the study, but there was no one in the study, so she turned to the bedroom. When she reached the door of the bedroom, Su Wanwan closed her eyes, slightly suppressing the anger and excitement in her heart, before raising her hand to knock on the door.
Footsteps came from behind the door soon afterwards, and then the door opened.
Su Wanwan saw the person standing behind the door and a hint of puzzlement flashed in her eyes, "Doctor, you... how are you here?"
The doctor in a white coat smiled warmly at her and replied softly, "Old man is not feeling well today, I came to take a look."
"Grandpa is okay, right?"
"It's nothing serious, don't worry about it, just pay attention to your emotions and try not to fluctuate too much."
Two people were talking when a weak voice came from inside, "Is that Wanwan? Come in."
The doctor nodded and said, "Come in."
Su Wan nodded slightly and walked in slowly. Su Zhenhua was leaning against the headboard, his face pale and lacking energy.
Su Wanwan walked to the bedside, sat down, held his hands with both of hers and softly asked: "Grandfather, where are you uncomfortable?"
"When people get old, they easily feel uncomfortable here and there, but it's nothing serious."
Su Zhenhua casually replied with a sentence, then looked at Su Wanwan and said: "Shouldn't you be in the company at this time? Why did you come back?"
