The Dormant Vampire Queen Awakens

Chapter 64

Shang Yu saw that the elders were present, so she sat down on the couch beside them and listened.

Her grandfather smiled at her warmly. "Yu is back. Is school fun? Don't have too much academic pressure. Going to school should be about having fun and making friends."

"I'm not sure if school is fun or not. I took a day off," Shang Yu replied.

"Are you not feeling well?" Her grandfather looked at her with concern.

Shang's Father and Shang's Mother also hurried over and sat beside her. "Is the academic pressure too much? Don't worry, we can pull you out of that lousy school if needed."

Shang Yu said, "I'm fine. I just took the day off to go to an internet cafe."

"Which internet cafe? Grandpa will get you a ten-year membership," the old man said with a relieved smile.

Shang Luo turned his head angrily. Damn it! What special treatment!

Shang Yu took the first day off from school to go to an internet cafe, and her grandfather didn't even reprimand her! He even offered to get her a ten-year membership!

He gritted his teeth. Is Shang Yu the only grandchild in the family?

Shang Quan kept his head lowered. He was too young and naive. The new design he had purchased turned out to be plagiarized, which led to the Shang family being mocked in this round of competition.

He only now realized that the plagiarized work was intentionally sold to him by a competitor.

His grandfather and father had lectured him for a while, and he knew he had made a mistake.

Shang Hui didn't say a word. It had nothing to do with him anyway. He was still the second young master of the Shang family.

"No need," Shang Yu looked at Shang Quan. "Is this a family meeting?"

Shang Luo glared at Shang Yu. Just when their grandfather had finally forgotten about scolding his older brother, she brought it up again!

Shang Yu did it on purpose because she disliked Shang Quan. How dare she?! She held grudges easily.

As expected, the old man and Shang's Father immediately started talking about it.

"This is all because of your older brother. I've told him before not to buy designs from anyone other than the contracted designers at our company!"

"He really went and listened to his friend, buying some supposed 'master design' draft. That was someone hired by the Su Family. The draft plagiarized ZK's new summer collection from last year, causing us to fail in securing the prime location at Yeda Mall."

"Yeda is a subsidiary of ZK, so of course they wouldn't recognize a plagiarized design. The Shang family's reputation was nearly ruined this time!"

...

Shang Luo angrily said, "I don't think the Su Family was trying to sabotage us. It must have been ZK! Ever since that scoundrel Pei Liechuan took over, he's been doing everything to encroach on our territory. He's just a swindling businessman!"

"Isn't it because you all lack brains?" Shang Yu looked at Shang Luo.

"Shang Yu, are you a Shang or a Pei?!" Shang Luo was shaking with anger at being insulted. "You're being biased! You've always been praising ZK's designs!"

"That's because they're truly excellent. Otherwise, they wouldn't have risen to become the industry leader," Shang Yu calmly said. "Using a plagiarized design in the first place just shows your lack of ability. It doesn't matter who designed it."

Shang Luo was about to say something else, but Shang Quan held him back and shook his head. "It was indeed my mistake. I'm willing to bear all the losses."

The old man gripped his cane. "Talking about it now is useless. Just be more careful going forward. Business is complicated."

He looked at Shang Quan. "You can't bear the losses. You can only go and resolve the problem."

"Yes!" Shang Quan looked up. "Grandpa, I will handle it properly!"

"Mmhmm."

The old man sighed. "I'm not trying to scold you. But there are some things you must understand."

"I understand," Shang Quan lowered his head.

At that moment, the sound of police sirens came from outside.

Chen Butler rushed in. "Sir, the police have arrived."
