My Clever Wife Is Sweet

Su Xi starred at the television as the news and interview of Lin Jua was being broad casted as the main news of the day.

She had expected this but never ever that Lin Jua will play the woman card. In some of the other ways, in front of the world, she might be the third party but in reality, Lin Jua is the one who is coming in between Gu Yan and her.

"Mom, I think you should take any action this time. Please." Ye Shing can't see his mother suffering like this anymore. In fact, no child will be able to see their parents being targeted so badly by the world. 

"Yes, mum. You need to do something. This bimbo is going out of her limits! She needs to be taught one lesson by us." Ye Nian almost shouted in anger. Seeing that Lin Jua was almost insulting their whole family was enough for her blood to boil.

But Su Xi kept her mouth shut. She9 just listened to whatever her children said but this does not mean she will react in a high manner. This time, the dirt is not only coming on her but also on her business. It might affect the shares and also, she just took over the head position yesterday. Many of the people in the board meeting do not trust her. 

She has to win them over also and thus is not at all possible like this when Lin Jua is saying and accusing them directly. 

"Hmm. Ye Shing, bring my phone from the study. It's on the study table or either on the couch. Go." The instant he heard this, Ye Shing ran back to the study and brought her phone down. 

Su Xi stared at her for some time and then called a certain person. "Secretary Wan…"

"Madam, you did not even care about your own health and escaped the office yesterday. Are, you okay now?" She heard his concerned voice but Su Xi understood that if something would have happened to her, everything might come on him.

"Hmm, I'm fine now. Thank you for asking. Help me leak the things we discovered last time." Su Xi just passed an order. Although she did not receive any confirmation from the other side, somewhere Su Xi felt this was not right. Why is Secretary Wan not responding!?!

"Madam, sorry for my interference, I would suggest you please talk with Gu family once before taking a decision. This will not only affect the Lin family but also the Gu family." Hearing his suggestion, Su Xi raised her eyebrow. 

She agreed that if Gu Family helped him once again then Lin's family will recover from this and she will again lose.

This time, Su Xi understood that before taking any action, she needs to take Gu Yan in her confidence otherwise all her matters will be in waste.

"Wait for my confirmation then." Saying this, Su Xi hanged up. She turned around and saw her children staring at her with their blank face. 

"Sorry, I can't tell you much for now but soon the result will be out in front of you. Keep faith in me for this." Su Xi patted both of their head and in return, Ye Shing and Ye Nian smiled.

Ye Nian hugged her mother and then spoke, "Mom, whatever you do. We are with you." Now that their family is going through a tough time, somewhere she knows that this will be over and soon their happy days will return.

"Hmm, I will be in my room for a few hours. If you need anything call me. After Ye Shan's class ends, we will go somewhere. It has been so long that our family went out." Saying this, Su Xi went straight to her room and locked the door behind her.

Now the task begins, to convince Gu Yan to help her in this. Well, after what happened in the morning, will he help her? She does not know at all. But all can she do is take the risk and go for it 

Sitting on her bed and after fighting with so many thoughts, she decided to call him and ask him directly if he is in favor of what she is going to do.

Although there is a high chance that he will rebel against each thing but what is the problem of taking the risk.

Building up the courage, she finally tapped on his contact, a few rings, she heard his husky voice on other hand.

"G-Gu Yan…." Just hearing his deep voice made her black for a good few seconds.

'How will he react? Will he be angry at him for dragging him just like this?' They are not the husband's wife for now in his eyes. Maybe he does not care about her well being and her image.

But she can know this only when he speaks through his mouth and tell her that yeah, he is not concerned about her well being and image.

"Su Xi? Are you still there? Hello!?!" Gu Yan's continuous questions brought her out from the daze and then, she spoke again, "I'm here. You must have seen the news, right?"

There was a long silence. It looked like he was sleeping at the moment and she woke him. This might be possible because sleeping on the couch last night was not really comfortable for him. At this moment, Su Xi's eyes turned gentle. She must be a strong woman for others, but she also has that gentle side of her which warms up only for her loved ones.

"Hmm. I have seen what Lin Jua said." Was all that he spoke. Neither he rejected what she said was wrong nor he stood by her side. Su Xi was in dilemma now. 'Should I ask him or not?' This was really confusing for her now!

"Gu Yan, tell me a few things. Do you love Lin Jua? I want an honest answer. Leave all business aside and also the fact that we are competitors in the business world. Please tell me the answer to this!" Su Xi finally took the risk of asking this question. If he loves her, which had a slight low chance, then she is sure that in her next question, she will receive a positive answer no matter what.

"Why do you want to know?"

"Gu Yan, I request you to tell me the truth. Please!" Su Xi almost begged him this time. She can't help but bite her nails in the tension of what he will say. His words from some time are enough to hurt her heart.

"No! I don't love her even a percent. Now that you got your answer, shall I hang up?" Gu Yan aksed straightforwardly but unknown to him, his only one reply made Su Xi sigh in relief as she now laid back on the bed and looked at the ceiling.

"I have another question from you. After that you can hang up, I won't stop you then." Su Xi said while saying her next question, "If I disturb your girlfriend a little bit. I mean by Lin Jua, will you go and help her this time the way you did last time? Will you try to save your engagement again?"

The proof Su Xi has is enough for her to bring down the image of not only Lin Jua but the whole Lin family this time. Not only that, Mrs. Lin's strong family from abroad won't be able to help them when this gets revealed.

"That depends on what you are up to. If the thing you are going to do is really something big and out of my control then maybe I will not step inside. But remember Su Xi, don't drag my family in this otherwise I won't think twice before harming you, which is the last thing I'm interested in." Gu Yan revealed his real motive and Su Xi was satisfied.

Now that he had told her the real reason, why will she step back? Of course, the proof is enough for them to sympathize with Gu family and say sorry to her as they insulted her so badly! 'Now I'm sure Gu Yan, you will be proud of me!' Hearing this reply, Su Xi hanged up on her own in enjoyment.

This can be considered as the permission she got from Gu Yan from doing whatever she wants and he will indirectly support her, just the cost that it shouldn't come to his family.

But on the other side, Gu Yan stared at the phone he held in his hands. His eyes were half opened as his hair messy. Although he got up early and prepared himself, he went back to sleep because of many emotions. This was the only way to stop overthinking as it might eat him up.

But after receiving a call from Su Xi, he does not know what she wants. Just seeing Lin Jua's interview, he felt mixed emotions. Su Xi held wrong intentions and this was not wrong, but saying it in front of media is somewhat invading privacy.

Wasn't this just the matter between two families? Why involving the press in it? But then how can he forget that the whole Lin family is hungry for fame and sympathy?

The only thing that took his interest was to see what Su Xi is going to do? What she has?!? If only he can leave Lin Jua somehow it will be super good and for this, any method is worth it!

She was so damn irritating and who the hell even put a full foundation on their face and a half bottle of perfume on their body!!?

'She is damn sure crazy!' All he wished was to stay away from her now. From the very start, he knew Lin Family's intention towards him, and this was the perfect time to leave them if Su Xi's proof is powerful enough.

The door opened and Shi Yu walked inside with his laptop. "Good that you are awake. Interested in knowing news?"
