Chapter 241: Chapter 241: Connection With Boss Su Chapter 241: Chapter 241: Connection With Boss Su A small group of tenants—stern-faced and suspicious—approached her room that evening. They knocked, their expressions hard. One man, a tall, broad-shouldered tenant named Gao Ming, spoke first. “Is it true? Are you connected to Boss Su?” Su Yun tilted her head, a coy smile playing on her lips. “I never said that directly,” she replied, her voice soft and mysterious. “But… people do talk.” Her nonchalant response only fueled their imagination. They exchanged glances, reading into her every word. By the next day, the rumor had taken on a life of its own. Tenants who had once ignored Su Yun now stopped her in the halls, offering polite smiles and nods. A group of them approached her in the communal courtyard. “Miss Su Yun,” one woman said, her voice dripping with respect, “please convey our gratitude to Boss Su. We know how hard it must be for you… carrying such a burden.” Su Yun’s eyes widened, but she quickly composed herself. “I… I’ll do my best,” she replied, letting her voice tremble slightly as if the weight of her supposed responsibility was immense. Young, ambitious men took particular notice. By the third day, they started visiting her room, bringing gifts—everything from small tokens like flowers to more valuable items like rare food rations and even jewelry. A shy, dark-haired man named Li Chen handed her a delicate bracelet. “I hope you’ll accept this,” he murmured. “It’s a token of… my respect. Please, tell Boss Su that we’re all grateful for what she does.” Su Yun accepted each gift with a gracious smile, her confidence swelling. She walked through the base with an air of quiet arrogance, head held high, her eyes glittering with self-satisfaction. She began to plan her next move. If Boss Su confronted her, she would simply say, “I must have been mistaken. Maybe I confused you with someone else.” It was the perfect defense—plausible enough to escape punishment. Su Jiyai learned about the spreading rumors late in the evening. Sitting in her office, she glanced at the surveillance screens, watching Su Yun parade through the base with an arrogant strut, her arms loaded with gifts. Tenants greeted her with smiles of reverence, their eyes wide with misplaced admiration. Jiyai’s face twisted into a cold smile. Enough was enough. She reached for the control panel and activated the base-wide intercom system. With a flick of her finger, she engaged the auto-translate function to ensure everyone understood her message. The speakers crackled to life. “This is Boss Su,” Jiyai’s calm, authoritative voice echoed through the base. “I want to make something crystal clear. I have no relationship—personal or professional—with anyone named Su Yun. If anyone dares to use my name for personal gain, they will be immediately expelled from the base.” The entire base fell silent. Tenants froze, their eyes wide with shock as they processed the announcement. In the communal courtyard, Su Yun’s face went pale. The bracelet she had just accepted slipped from her fingers, clattering to the ground. Panic flared in her eyes. She opened her mouth to protest, but no words came out. Suddenly, murmurs of anger spread through the crowd like wildfire. “Did she trick us?” one woman hissed, her face twisted in disbelief. “She used Boss Su’s name?” another man growled, fists clenched. Gao Ming, the broad-shouldered tenant, stepped forward, his voice hard with rage. “We trusted you! You took our gifts, our respect… all for a lie?” Su Yun backed away, her smile faltering. “I… I didn’t mean to—” “Give back what you took!” Li Chen demanded, his shy demeanor replaced by cold fury. “I… I can’t,” Su Yun stammered, clutching the gifts tighter to her chest. “They were… freely given!” The crowd’s anger intensified. “You shameless snake!” one woman spat, lunging forward. Before Su Yun could react, the mob descended on her. Hands grabbed at her, yanking at the jewelry, tearing away the food rations she had hoarded. “No! Stop! Please!” Su Yun shrieked, her voice high-pitched and desperate. Tears streamed down her face, but the crowd was relentless. She fell to the ground, curled in a ball, shielding herself as blows rained down—slaps, kicks, furious shoves. “Liar!” “Thief!” Each word was punctuated with a strike, a kick, a pull of her hair. Su Yun’s carefully constructed facade crumbled. Her cries for mercy grew louder, her pitiful wails echoing through the courtyard. Suddenly, the speakers crackled again. “Enough,” Jiyai’s voice cut through the chaos. The tenants froze, stepping back, breathing heavily. Su Yun lay on the ground, bruised and disheveled, tears streaking her face. Seeing her chance, she scrambled to her knees, clutching at the air as if reaching for an invisible lifeline. “Boss Su! Please!” she sobbed, her voice trembling with a mix of desperation and manipulation. “You must understand! I thought… I thought we were friends! That’s why I said those things! I never meant any harm…” Jiyai’s voice remained cold and impassive. “Friends? I don’t know you.” Su Yun’s face contorted with anguish, but Jiyai continued, addressing the crowd. “If you wish to settle your grievances with Su Yun, do it outside the base. Violence within these walls will not be tolerated.” The tenants exchanged glances, their anger still simmering. Without another word, two men grabbed Su Yun by the arms, dragging her toward the base’s exit. “No! Please!” she screamed, her eyes wide with terror. “I didn’t mean it! You don’t understand!” The crowd followed, their fury unabated, leaving the courtyard empty save for the scattered remnants of Su Yun’s ill-gotten gifts. Su Jiyai watched from the security feed, her expression unreadable. She had suffered too much under Su Yun’s hand. Many times Su Yun had the chance to save Su Jiyai but she chose to mock her or even push her to the abyss. Thinking of the days she had spent in Su Family, Su Jiyai’s heart turned cold. Forgive Su’s family? Dream on. They made her life hell. It was her geneoursity for not trying to find them and take revenge. But if they dare to bully her again she will teach them a good lesson.
