Chapter 1268: Awakening

~8 min read 1,458 words

The point where Old Master Su is more brilliant than Su Shoudao is that he constructed a rough framework in his own brain through clues, and at the same time, calculated the existence of Ye Chen, this mysterious person, in this framework.

In fact, Su Chengfeng has always been a very shrewd old fox. Many of the things he planned were almost flawless, but several times it was because he could not predict the variables like Ye Chen, so he lost by a hair and missed by a thousand miles.

This time, he speculated that Su Zhiyu was not dead, and speculated that Su Zhiyu must have been saved by an expert, so he decided to try his best to win back Su Shoudao's family.

The first breakthrough point is naturally Su Shoudao, the head of the family.

This phone call just now not only appeased Su Shoudao, but also expressed his apology to Su Zhifei in front of Su Shoudao.

If these father and son believe his rhetoric, then he has at least won back half of this family of four.

Although it is impossible for Su Shoudao to forgive Su Chengfeng so easily, at this moment, his heart has indeed eased a little because of Old Master Su's active admission of mistakes just now.

After all, Su Chengfeng has never bowed his head to anyone in his life, and suddenly apologizing in person really surprised him.

Moreover, Su Chengfeng couldn't calculate the mysterious factor of Ye Chen, so he didn't know the real motive for the old master's softening.

Coupled with the fact that he was sent to Australia, even if the old master did something sorry to him, there was no need to bow his head to him. Even, the old master could completely place him under house arrest to get rid of future troubles. This is also the old master's consistent style of doing things.

But the old master didn't choose this way, but took the initiative to bow his head and admit his mistakes, begging for forgiveness, which made Su Shoudao feel that the old master might have really realized his mistakes and had the idea of turning over a new leaf and making up for his mistakes.

The old master is willing to make up for himself and agrees to let himself return to the country, which is equivalent to preparing to restore his status as an heir.

No one will have trouble with trillions of family assets, so Su Shoudao's heart is full of an irrepressible excitement in addition to surprise.

However, on one side is the grief and worry of his own daughter's life and death, and on the other side is the excitement and agitation of turning over a new leaf. These different moods are mixed together, making Su Shoudao feel a bit ashamed.

The reason for the shame is also because he found that he could not stop the excitement deep in his heart under such circumstances.

This also made him completely understand a truth.

Why did the struggle for the throne and power between close relatives happen one after another in ancient times?

Brothers killing brothers, brothers killing brothers, fathers killing sons, sons killing fathers, such history is common.

The reason is that the interests placed in front of them are too great, so great that they can throw blood and family affection behind them.

If sacrificing one's own close relatives can only exchange for one hundred yuan, not many people in this world will agree.

However, if sacrificing one's own close relatives can exchange for one hundred billion, or even one trillion?

I am afraid that many people will be completely stunned by this huge interest.

Su Shoudao is also a mortal, and also has seven emotions and six desires.

After being sent to Australia, he experienced the feeling of losing all power. This sense of loss made him unforgettable.

Now, finally seeing the opportunity to turn the tide, how can he not be excited deep in his heart?

So, he called Su Zhifei, told him the situation simply, and then instructed him, "Zhifei, I think your grandfather really realized his mistake this time, so don't be too resistant to him in your heart, you know?"

Su Zhifei said angrily, "Dad! Mom and Zhiyu are now being harmed by him and their life and death are unknown, and you tell me not to be too resistant to him? Didn't you watch the video circulating on the Internet? What did Mom and Zhiyu look like in that car!"

"Stupid!" Su Shoudao roared, "The matter has already happened, what can you save by fighting your grandfather?"

"Not only can you save nothing, but you will also be doomed!"

"You have to know, I am the eldest son of the Su family, and you are the eldest son and grandson of the Su family. Your grandfather will live for at most another ten years. By then, if I can't be the head of the Su family, I can only roll away far away!"

"If your second uncle, your third uncle, or your fourth uncle sits in the position of the head of the family, will they make our family feel better?!"

"I ask you, do you know what happened to your grandfather's brothers after your grandfather became the head of the family?"

"None of these uncles of mine can live in the country! The day they failed to seize the throne was the beginning of their family moving overseas!"

Speaking of this, Su Shoudao said with some agitation, "Those who failed to seize the throne left China and went overseas. The assets they could get were less than one percent of the Ye family. The most unlucky ones couldn't even get one ten-thousandth! Do you want to be driven out of China after ten years, have all the positions given to you by the family taken back, and have all the funds and assets taken back, and have the whole family take a mere few hundred million assets to live overseas?"

Su Zhifei fell into silence.

As the saying goes, it is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but difficult to go from luxury to frugality.

Now he doesn't care about money at all. He has a private jet when he goes out, has his own family industry all over the world, and does whatever he wants. But once it is really as his father said, he fails to seize the throne and is sent overseas, he will really lose everything in an instant.

A better private jet costs hundreds of millions of RMB. If all assets are really stripped and only a few hundred million assets are left for the family, what can they live on?

Su Shoudao also knew very well that his words had touched his son's heart, so he wisely chose to stop, rather than rush for success.

So, he said, "Okay, I'll just tell you so much for now. Your grandfather asked me to meet him in Su Hang. You find a place to stay in Jin Ling tonight, and drive to Su Hang tomorrow morning. I will arrive in Su Hang tomorrow afternoon. When the time comes, you come to the airport to see me, and then we will go to see your grandfather together!"

Su Zhifei was silent for a moment, no longer showing his rebellion and confrontation, and whispered, "I know, Dad... You don't have to worry about me for now. I'll call Grandpa in a while. If there are any changes, I'll communicate with you again."

Su Shoudao gave a hum and instructed, "Don't call your grandfather tonight. I guess he should already be planning how to find your mother and sister. Don't disturb him. Let's talk about it tomorrow!"

This night, reality was extremely calm, while the online world continued to boil.

The criticism and abuse of Su Chengfeng had become increasingly fierce.

Su Chengfeng's actions even began to be reported by overseas media.

And Su Chengfeng himself quietly hid in Su Hang overnight.

Su Shoudao boarded the Su family's private jet, set off from Australia, and flew directly to Su Hang.

As for Su Zhifei, for the sake of caution, he did not rely on anyone, nor did he go to a hotel, but lay in his luxury car with the heater on for the whole night.

This night, the three generations of the Su family were all sleepless.

In stark contrast to them, Du Haiqing and Su Zhiyu, mother and daughter, lay on the extremely comfortable big bed in the Buckingham Palace Hotel and slept peacefully all night.

At eight o'clock in the morning, Su Zhiyu was the first to wake up, slightly opened her eyes...
