Su Luo broke free from Lin Tian’s grip and scolded him with a disgusted expression, “Are you crazy? Do you not understand what I’ve said to you? I have nothing to do with you. So, please stop pestering me!”
Everyone was puzzled. Rumors had said that Su Luo loved Lin Tian a lot. They could not understand why Su Luo was so rude to Lin Tian now.
Lin Tian looked at Su Luo sincerely. “Luo Luo, please leave with me first. I’ll tell you the details later.”
Lin Tian had been thinking about it for a long time. He didn’t want to give up on Su Luo just like that.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Lin. My husband and children are here. Why should I go with you? I’m begging you. Please don’t pester me anymore, okay?”
Su Luo hugged Gu Zhan’s arm tightly and begged Lin Tian to let him go.

Everyone at the banquet was stunned.
Su Luo was supposed to dislike Gu Zhan.
Lin Tian and Su Luo were supposed to have an affair.
However, from the scene, it seemed like Lin Tian was the one pestering Su Luo.
“Everyone, it’s so lively here. I wonder what happened here.”
Suddenly, Su Li walked over with a smile on his face.
The crowd made way for him.
Su Li looked at everyone at the center of the crowd and understood what was going on.
He was chatting with his friends in the garden. But when he heard there was a commotion, he immediately rushed over.
Chen Zhong felt guilty that he did not have the guts to look at Su Li.
“Dad…”
Su Luo noticed Su Li’s reproachful gaze and timidly called him dad.
Su Li must have put all the blame on her. Her life was quite pathetic.
“Old Chen, you can teach your daughter slowly. I think you drank a little too much today. I’ll ask the chauffeur to send you back. Lin Tian, go back and rest early. Send my regards to your father.”
There were too many guests here. Su Li didn’t flare up immediately. Instead, he found a good excuse to chase Lin Tian and Chen Zhong out.
Chen Zhong was so ashamed to say anything else. He grabbed Chen Wang’s arm and left dejectedly.
Lin Tian didn’t want to offend Su Li. Although he was unwilling, he still left.
Su Li announced the banquet was over and dismissed the crowd. Su Luo thought that she could breathe a sigh of relief, but Su Li said with a serious look on his face, “Ask Xiao Zhan to take care of the twins. You come with me.”
Su Luo had a bad feeling. She smiled and said, “Dad, can I ask Gu Zhan to go with me?”
Su Li glanced at Su Luo. “Do you think you can bring him?”
When Su Luo heard her father’s threatening tone, she was disappointed. “No.”
Su Luo told Gu Zhan to take care of the child. When her back faced Su Li, she mouthed to Gu Zhan, “Remember to save me later.”
Gu Zhan understood her distressed signal and nodded.
Su Luo smiled at him and turned around to follow Su Li.
Su Li and Su Luo entered the study room.
Su Li showed his displeasure instantly after Su Luo closed the door.
He stood with his back facing Su Luo. When he heard Su Luo’s footsteps approaching, he shouted sternly, “Kneel!”
Su Luo was so scared that she trembled, but she did not kneel.
She frowned and defended herself, “Dad, I didn’t do anything wrong. I’m not kneeling. They were the ones who started it.”
Su Li heard Su Luo’s unyielding attitude, and his anger boiled.
He turned around, pointed at Su Luo’s nose, and scolded, “You didn’t do anything wrong? If it weren’t for the ambiguous relationship between you and Lin Tian, would other people spread those rumors? Do you know how many people in our Su family have spoken ill of us because of you?”
Su Luo pursed her lips and sighed. In her heart, she silently retorted, “That was because of the original Su Luo. What has it got to do with me?”
“Today is my birthday. You quarreled with others and even met Lin Tian in the stairwell? Do you still care about me, your father?”
“I thought you had already changed. I didn’t expect you to do something worse. You had a secret meeting with Lin Tian at our house. Have you ever considered Gu Zhan’s feelings? He is your husband!”
Su Li was so angry that his face flushed red. After scolding Su Jin, he couldn’t help but cough.
“Dad, you can’t just listen to other people’s accusations. You have to listen to my explanation too. Lin Tian and I met today, but it’s not what you think!”
Su Luo knew that Su Li had misunderstood and wanted to explain to Su Li.
