Reborn through an arranged marriage, I awakened the Shennong farming system.

Su Bai got into the car and left the Su family without looking back; he didn't want to stay there for even a second longer.

Su Yangxia put her umbrella away in the entryway. As soon as she entered the dining room, Su Shengrong asked, "Are you leaving?"

Su Yangxia said in frustration, "They're gone. No matter how I explain, it's no use!"

"Hmph! That unfilial son!" Su Shengrong said angrily, then stood up and left the table.

Su Chengjun and the others were startled and sat there stiffly, not daring to move. Su Yangxia, however, caught up with Su Shengrong and helped him back to the study.

After the two left, Su Chengjun, Su Mo, and Su Qi looked at each other in surprise. The development of events was truly beyond their expectations.

"I don't think this meal is necessary. Let's just call it a day!" Su Chengjun suggested. His eyes were fixed on Su Mo, hoping she would quickly go find Young Master Gu so he could see Li Chengtian as soon as possible. It seemed Su Bai had truly been abandoned by Su Shengrong, so he needed to achieve something even more to impress everyone!

"Great! I have an appointment with my girlfriends to get my nails done this afternoon!" Su Mo completely ignored Su Chengjun. She had agreed to help him make a connection, but timing was crucial. She wouldn't bring it up rashly if the timing wasn't right.

"I also had an appointment this afternoon, and I thought I couldn't go at first, but I didn't expect..." Su Qi took out her phone, her fingers flying across the screen, and quickly rescheduled her afternoon plans. "My friend is already waiting for me, so I'll be going now." Before she finished speaking, Su Qi's figure disappeared from the restaurant.

Su Mo didn't want to be alone with Su Chengjun, because she didn't even need to think about what Su Chengjun would say, so she followed Su Qi closely, saying, "Wait for me, I'll go with you!"

Seeing this, Su Chengjun's eyes darkened, but he really had no other better way to contact Li Chengtian, so he could only endure it for now.

After Su Yangxia and Su Shengrong went upstairs and entered the study, the anger on Su Shengrong's face vanished instantly, as if Su Shengrong had never been angry at all.

Su Shengrong sat firmly in his chair, picked up his teacup, took a small sip, and asked, "How was it? Are you satisfied with the results of today's test?"

Su Yangxia's expression changed the moment the door closed. It was no longer warm and gentle, nor was it embarrassed and annoyed. Instead, it was calm, a calm without any fluctuation.

"Su Bai's performance was indeed mediocre, but I still think he is more suitable as my whetstone to help me reach the next level!"

"But he now has the Hua family behind him. Have you thought this through?" Su Shengrong asked. Su Shengrong was very surprised when Su Yangxia said he wanted to test whether Su Bai was qualified to be his whetstone. According to Uncle Xin's investigation, Su Bai was just an ordinary college student from a second-tier university, majoring in the very unpopular archaeology. Although his performance during his time at school was quite good, he was useless to the Su family.

But Su Yangxia insisted, and Su Shengrong was eventually persuaded. They then planned today's event together. Judging from Su Bai's behavior, Su Shengrong was very disappointed in him.

“I’ve thought it through. Su Chengjun is too ambitious but too incompetent. He doesn’t give me a sense of crisis, and I can’t really treat him as a rival! Su Bai is different. He seems carefree and doesn’t care about anything, but I have a feeling that this isn’t his true self.” It’s true that the Su family wants to enter the internet industry, and they do have the funds. Using this to test Su Bai was a decision made jointly by Su Yangxia and Su Shengrong, because Su Shengrong wanted to retire as soon as possible, and Su Yangxia wanted to take the lead as soon as possible.

Su Yangxia could never forget Su Bai's attitude towards him when they first met. His intuition told him that Su Bai was the most suitable person to be his whetstone.

“But Su Bai is already married. I can’t let him join the Su Group. How can he be your whetstone?” This was Su Shengrong’s biggest reason for not wanting Su Yangxia to choose Su Bai. Su Bai had no interest in the position of president of the Su Group. Based on this alone, Su Bai lacked the fundamental characteristics of a whetstone.

"He can do it!" For some reason, Su Yangxia firmly believed this.

Su Shengrong was silent for a moment, then smiled and said, "Alright, I'll trust you this once. At worst, Su Chengjun is still here! You can choose to replace him at any time. In any case, the position of president of the Su Group must be taken over by you."

Su Shengrong did indeed have many affairs with women outside, but his favorite was still Su Yangxia's mother. Moreover, Su Shengrong was taught from a young age that only the children of the legal wife could inherit everything in the Su family, because only they had the purest bloodline of the Su family. The bloodlines of those illegitimate children outside were polluted and they were not worthy of the Su family name at all.

"Thank you, Father!" Su Yangxia's face regained its smile. He was also dissatisfied with Su Bai's performance in today's test. Although he had seen some of Su Bai's true colors, he was undoubtedly disappointed.

If Su Bai hated him, today's test would have been a great opportunity to bring him and the Su family down together. But Su Bai didn't seize the opportunity at all and just left in a fit of anger.

Su Yangxia found it increasingly difficult to understand Su Bai's true thoughts. She absolutely did not believe that Su Bai harbored no hatred towards her.

But why didn't Su Bai seize the opportunity that was right in front of him? Su Yangxia really couldn't understand. Was Su Bai really ignorant or was he pretending not to understand?

On the other side, Su Bai only breathed a sigh of relief after watching the car leave the Su family's old house, leaning his head back in his seat to calm his heart, which had been pounding violently from the tension. He truly hadn't expected that even after he was married, Su Shengrong and Su Yangxia still wouldn't let him go!

In the previous life, the Su family did indeed enter the internet industry and achieved considerable success. As a result, Su Yangxia, the initiator of the project, was promoted to the position of vice president of the Su Group, which dealt a significant blow to Su Bai, who had just joined the Su family at the time.

If Su Bai hadn't been certain that the Su family had plenty of money to enter the internet industry, he might have fallen into Su Shengrong and Su Yangxia's trap today.

When Su Bai heard Su Shengrong say he wanted to enter the internet industry, he didn't react much. But the next second, Su Shengrong said that the Su family was short of money, and Su Bai's vigilance immediately rose.

The foray into the internet industry was spearheaded by Su Yangxia, so how could Su Shengrong possibly let Su Yangxia have any financial worries? In addition, around this time in his previous life, the Su family was about to announce the successful acquisition of a cutting-edge internet company. Therefore, Su Bai was certain that Su Shengrong and Su Yangxia were testing him.

So, Su Bai began to act.

"I wonder if I've managed to fool them?" Su Bai thought to himself. He really didn't want to be used as a pawn by Su Yangxia anymore!

However, this trip to the Su family was not entirely fruitless! Su Bai was surprised that Su Chengjun would think of going to find Li Chengtian.

In his previous life, the first person he thought of was Young Master Gu, but due to his lack of experience and the interference of Su Yangxia in the dark, this project not only did not bring Su Bai any benefits, but also made him less and less respected in Su Shengrong's heart.

In this life, Su Bai chose to give that project to Su Chengjun in order to quickly help Su Chengjun rise up and compete with Su Yangxia. Su Chengjun was, after all, a finance graduate and had returned to the Su family two years earlier than him, so he certainly wouldn't be as easily schemed against by Su Yangxia as he was that day.

Unexpectedly, Su Chengjun had such great ambitions that he directly targeted the top powerful families.

After thinking for a moment, Su Bai took out his phone and searched for something, then said to the driver, "I'm not going home yet, I need to take care of something here."

The driver pulled the car over to the side of the road, took Su Bai's phone, glanced at it, and quickly planned out a route in his mind. "Okay, Madam." With Hua Jue Mingtian by his side every day calling him "Madam," Su Bai had become immune to those two words and could calmly accept them no matter how others addressed him.

This tells us that sometimes, fighting fire with fire is very effective!

When Su Bai returned home after finishing his business outside, Hua Jueming was already waiting for him at the door.

"Welcome home, Madam." Hua Jueming's expression was calm, not at all like someone who had returned home before Su Bai.

"Butler Hua, I'm a little tired and want to rest for a bit. Let's have dinner a little later!" Just as Su Bai was about to get out of the car, a mission suddenly flashed before his eyes, startling him.

"Okay, ma'am."

"Oh, and one more thing," Su Bai suddenly stopped in front of Hua Jueming, but Hua Jueming didn't bump into him, stopping steadily a step and a half away from Su Bai. Su Bai wasn't surprised at all and asked, "Have you found enough people to build the greenhouses and irrigation facilities? When will construction begin?"

He thought the system would issue tasks one at a time before starting the next, but he didn't expect the system to suddenly issue him a task. He hadn't even finished his first initial task when the system issued another one!

"Construction has already begun." As soon as Hua Jueming returned home, he told Hua Gengchen about Su Bai's plan to build a greenhouse. Hua Gengchen then granted Hua Jueming special privileges, allowing him to find help from the fairies living in the human world.

It has to be said that some fairies with special skills work faster than humans!

Su Bai needed to build a greenhouse, install an irrigation system, and construct a cold storage facility. Hua Jueming simply went to a human resources dispatch company run by a fairy, and everything was completed in less than half a day. He even took a look at it on his way back, and it was done perfectly in every way, without a single flaw.

However, the speed is too fast, which is very likely to arouse human suspicion.

Fortunately, there are few human residents in the western suburbs. Hua Jueming only needs to keep Su Bai occupied for three to five days before telling Su Bai that the matter has been completed. This way, it will not be so easy for anyone to suspect anything.

"So fast!" With such rocket-like work speed, Su Bai couldn't help but give Hua Jueming a thumbs up again.

"It's my duty!" Hua Jueming was not arrogant at all, and his attitude was very humble.

"Then I'll trouble Butler Hua to keep an eye on things for me." Su Bai didn't know what the system's second task was yet, the online store opening was urgent, and there was also the first task for which he hadn't yet reaped any results. He really didn't have many things to do.

"This is my duty."

Su Bai looked at Hua Jueming calmly for a while, and finally said slowly, "When Hua Gengchen comes back, I will definitely make him give you a raise!" Such a capable housekeeper, I don't know where Hua Gengchen found him, he is just too useful.

If he weren't short of funds, he would have liked to find someone to help him with his family affairs.

Hua Jueming was stunned. A raise?! He didn't get a salary! Everything was voluntary!

Seeing Hua Jueming so overjoyed he could barely speak, Su Bai nodded to him and turned to go to his room.

He will definitely keep this matter firmly in mind and tell Hua Gengchen as soon as he returns!
