Chapter 1369: A small token of my heart
Su Ruoli had been somewhat inferior since she grew up.
She had no father's company since she was a child, and she grew up in the He family until she was eighteen before she was finally sent to her father's side as a bodyguard.
After coming to the Su family, she could see Su Shoudao's overflowing love for Su Zhiyu every day, and she envied it immensely every time she saw it.
She knew that the man wasn't just Su Zhiyu's father, but also her own father.
But she couldn't call him "Dad" in front of him, and she couldn't act spoiled in front of him either.
He only showed the kindness of a father to her when no one else was around. Once there was a third person, he would immediately change back to that face of the Su family's master.
Therefore, Su Ruoli especially envied Su Zhiyu.
She felt that Su Zhiyu was a swan born with thousands of favors, and also born with extreme nobility.
And she was just that ugly duckling in the fairy tale.
And she was only the first half of the ugly duckling; there was absolutely no chance for her to turn into a swan.
Illegitimate daughter was itself a synonym for the lower class in upper-class society.
Even if everyone now knew she was Su Shoudao's illegitimate daughter, they would only look at her with disdain, so there was still a world of difference between her and Su Zhiyu.
Now, not only did her sister Su Zhiyu not look down on her, but she had even taken the initiative to call her sister. This made Su Ruoli feel warm and moved in her heart.
Thus, she held Su Zhiyu's hand and cried, "Sister, in the future... if anyone bullies you, just tell me, and I'll vent your anger for you! I don't have any other skills, and I haven't been to much school, but I still have some skills in fighting. No matter who bullies you, I'll teach them a lesson!"
Su Zhiyu smiled knowingly and said, "With your words, Sister can be at ease. From now on, Sister also has a super expert protecting her. If anyone dares to bully Sister again, Sister will find you for help!"
Su Ruoli nodded repeatedly.
Du Haiqing on the side hesitated for a moment, then said, "Ruoli, in the future, when you are by Ye Chen's side, you must control your temper appropriately. Don't be like you were before, always fighting and killing."
Su Ruoli nodded in shame and said with a face full of instruction, "Auntie Du, don't worry. I won't do anything harmful to heaven and reason in the future!"
Du Haiqing nodded with relief: "After the storm in Japan passes, you can completely change your identity and start over."
Su Ruoli nodded gently with a bit of confusion in her expression.
Actually, she knew very well in her heart that, referring to the crimes she had committed before, the Japanese would never give up looking for her in this lifetime.
Even if she had plastic surgery and changed to a new identity, it would be impossible to be absolutely safe, because her DNA had already been collected when she was arrested, which was something she could never change.
Su Ruoli had watched many criminal investigation programs. There were many criminals who had been at large for ten or even twenty years. In such a long time, they had changed to new environments, new identities, and some had even completely changed their appearance, but the police still brought them to justice based on their DNA.
Therefore, she had always felt that she had only temporarily escaped from Japan, but that incident might accompany her for a lifetime.
Ye Chen said at this time, "Auntie Du, Miss Su, the two of you should stay in the room and rest for a while. In the evening, I will arrange for someone to send you away."
Du Haiqing hurriedly said, "You've worked hard, Ye Chen."
Ye Chen smiled slightly, "It's only right."
Su Zhiyu gathered her courage and said, "Benefactor!"
Ye Chen looked at her, waiting for what she had to say.
Su Zhiyu hurriedly said, "Benefactor, can I have your contact information?"
Seeing her daughter gather her courage to ask Ye Chen for contact information, Du Haiqing was afraid that Ye Chen would refuse, so she hurriedly added, "Oh right! Ye Chen, you should still leave us a contact method, so it will be easier for us to communicate if there's anything in the future."
Seeing that an elder like Du Haiqing had spoken, Ye Chen couldn't refuse anymore, so he took out his phone and said, "Then let's add each other on WeChat. If there's anything, contact me on WeChat."
Su Zhiyu said awkwardly, "Benefactor, my mother's and my phones were taken away by your subordinates..."
Ye Chen nodded and said, "In that case, I'll have Old Chen arrange for someone to send your phones back to you later, and also have them give you my WeChat ID."
Su Zhiyu was happy in her heart and hurriedly said, "Then thank you for your hard work, Benefactor!"
Du Haiqing remembered something at this time and said, "By the way, Ye Chen, at the auction before, the one who kept bidding against me and wanted to buy the small courtyard where your father lived was also you, right?"
Ye Chen smiled, "That's right, it was me."
Du Haiqing asked curiously, "Then why did you let it go to me in the end?"
Ye Chen shrugged his shoulders and said, "I felt that perhaps you needed that house more than I did."
Du Haiqing smiled with some emotion and said, "Thank you for giving it up."
"It's only right."
Temporarily saying goodbye to Du Haiqing and Su Zhiyu, Ye Chen took Su Ruoli and came out of the mother and daughter's room.
As soon as he came out, he saw Chen Zekai waiting outside the door. Seeing Ye Chen come out, he hurriedly stepped forward and said respectfully, "Young Master, I've already arranged it. In half an hour, I'll send Su Shoudao to the airport. However, he also has a few subordinates here who have been controlled by us. How do you intend to deal with them? Do you want to send them over together?"
Ye Chen waved his hand, "No need. If we send them over too, wouldn't that be equivalent to arranging a few servants for Su Shoudao? Just send Su Shoudao to Syria by himself. When he gets there, he'll have to fetch his own water, cook his own meals, and shovel his own latrines. Let him go over and temper himself properly."
Having said that, Ye Chen added, "As for the others, just send them all to Hong Wu."
Chen Zekai smiled and said, "Okay, Young Master, I'll arrange it now!"
Ye Chen added, "By the way, I'll send you an account number later. Have Su Shoudao wire the 100 million US dollars he promised. Send him away only after the money arrives."
"Okay!"
Ye Chen immediately sent the Swiss bank account number Hamid had sent him to Chen Zekai. After Chen Zekai got it, he went to find Su Shoudao for the first time.
Su Shoudao didn't dare to delay and immediately called the financial officer of one of the group's overseas companies, telling the other party to immediately wire 100 million US dollars to this account.
Although Su Shoudao wasn't the family head, he still had the authority to mobilize 100 million US dollars, so after the financial officer verified his identity, he immediately wired 100 million US dollars into Hamid's account.
Ten minutes later, Ye Chen received a call from Hamid. On the phone, Hamid's shocked voice was a bit incoherent, and he blurted out, "Ye... Brother Ye... I... I just received a... a 100 million US dollar transfer... This wouldn't have been arranged by you, would it?!"
Ye Chen smiled and said indifferently, "Yes, I arranged it."
Hamid exclaimed, "Brother! You... why did you wire me so much money?!"
Ye Chen smiled, "It's just a small token of my heart. Besides, didn't I say it? I want to support your cause, Brother. If you become a marquis or prime minister in the future, don't forget me, your brother!"
