Chapter 1409: Su Zhifei
Su Zhifei came quietly to find Su Zhiyu in the middle of the night with only one goal: to figure out exactly what Su Zhiyu and their mother had experienced this time, and who exactly had saved them.
While at the dinner table, he had heard their mother describe the specific process of their experience, which was the version of the story where a mysterious person had saved them but had never shown their face.
Although there were no obvious logical loopholes, Su Zhifei still felt that something was not quite right.
Coupled with the fact that his grandfather, Su Chengfeng, felt that this matter was likely related to the benefactor who had saved him and his sister in Japan, he thought he would ask Su Zhiyu in private to see if he could pry the truth out of her.
As soon as he entered Su Zhiyu's room, Su Zhifei asked with concern: "Zhiyu, you haven't suffered much these past few days, have you?"
"No..." Su Zhiyu smiled touchingly and said: "Brother, didn't I say it all at the dinner table? I didn't suffer much; on the contrary, I ate and slept every day and gained quite a bit of weight."
"It's good that you didn't..." Su Zhifei breathed a sigh of relief and sighed: "Brother was just afraid that you would suffer. After all, having such a major car accident, it would be very uncomfortable even if you just suffered a few minor injuries."
Su Zhiyu nodded and followed his lead: "Actually, those were minor matters. After all, they also arranged a very professional medical team for us."
Su Zhifei asked curiously: "Zhiyu, what kind of background does the mysterious person who saved you and Mom have? Why did they secretly rescue you? And they even treated you secretly without letting the outside world receive any news at all."
"I don't know." Su Zhiyu said: "I can't say for sure either... After all, I didn't see them, and from beginning to end, they never told us why they came to save us..."
Su Zhifei looked at Su Zhiyu and said seriously: "Zhiyu, tell Brother the truth. Is there any hidden information that you didn't say at the dinner table in front of Grandfather and the others?"
Su Zhiyu hurriedly said: "No, what I said was the actual situation."
Su Zhifei frowned and suddenly asked: "Zhiyu, could the person who saved you and Mom be the benefactor?!"
Su Zhifei's sudden question caught Su Zhiyu off guard, and it took a moment for her to recover. She hurriedly denied it: "How could that be... I tried every possible way to find the benefactor before but couldn't find them. Besides, the benefactor should be in Japan and wouldn't come to Jin Ling."
Su Zhifei had been observing Su Zhiyu's expression. He noticed that when he mentioned the benefactor just now, Su Zhiyu's expression was clearly a bit startled and nervous, and her subsequent denial had a flavor of trying to cover things up.
Based on his understanding of his sister, he could almost be certain that she was lying.
The person who truly saved her and their mother must be the same benefactor who saved him and his sister in Kyoto, Japan!
Thinking of this, Su Zhifei suddenly felt a wave of nervousness!
"That benefactor is a top-tier expert with extraordinary strength. He easily killed several top ninjas by himself while remaining unscathed. Such strength is almost an existence that the Su family cannot resist at all..."
"If it really was him who saved Mom and Zhiyu, then it proves that he himself is in Jin Ling! In this way, the disappearance of the Second Uncle and Father also has an answer. Apart from him, I can't think of a second possibility..."
"If you calculate it this way, although he saved Mom and Zhiyu, he himself is likely standing on the opposite side of the Su family..."
Therefore, Su Zhifei decided to pry for more details.
He sighed softly at this moment, looked at Su Zhiyu, and said with some disappointment: "Zhiyu, we two grew up together, our relationship has always been very good, and we even experienced life and death together in Japan. As your older brother, I have your best interests at heart a thousand, ten thousand times over. What could you possibly have to hide from me?"
Hearing this, Su Zhiyu couldn't help but feel a bit guilty, and her tone became less confident as she stammered: "Brother... I didn't..."
Su Zhifei asked her: "Do you really think Brother is a fool? After so many years, can't I see through you? Your current state is clearly lying."
As he spoke, Su Zhifei said helplessly: "Sigh, what do you have to hide from me about this matter? The benefactor is not just your benefactor alone; he is also my benefactor. My life was also saved by him. I know you want to find him to repay his kindness, and I want to find him to repay his kindness too! If it really was him who saved you and Mom this time, then our Su family owes him four lives. If there is a chance, I must kneel and thank him in person. But you keep being evasive here. Does this mean I won't even have a chance to thank the benefactor in person in the future?"
Su Zhiyu's psychological defense collapsed a bit.
Because she didn't realize that her brother, Su Zhifei, had already started moral kidnapping.
All of a sudden, she was plunged into a dilemma.
On one side was the promise she made to Ye Chen not to reveal his identity;
But on the other side, her brother seemed to have guessed the outline of the matter and had put it in a way that she didn't know how to refuse.
After thinking it over, Su Zhiyu felt: "Since Brother has already guessed this far, I will confirm his guess to avoid him feeling unhappy. As for more information about the benefactor, I just won't reveal it."
Therefore, she had no choice but to say: "Brother, you guessed right. The one who saved me and Mom is indeed the benefactor..."
Su Zhifei's heart skipped a beat.
"Sure enough..."
"Ginger is still spicier when it's old... Grandfather hadn't even met the benefactor and could guess it was him. If he hadn't reminded me, I'm afraid I wouldn't have thought of this level at all..."
Therefore, he deliberately pretended to be very excited and said excitedly: "Oh! It really is the benefactor! That's great! Zhiyu, when will you take me to see the benefactor? I must thank him properly in person!"
Su Zhiyu hurriedly said: "Brother, I don't know where the benefactor is either..."
Su Zhifei asked in surprise: "What do you mean? Didn't you see the benefactor?"
Su Zhiyu said: "I did see him, but the benefactor didn't reveal anything and even asked me and Mom to keep it a secret. I don't even know the benefactor's surname or given name. Moreover, Mom and I were indeed restricted in our personal freedom by the benefactor before, so we don't know any more information."
As she spoke, fearing that Su Zhifei wouldn't believe her, she added: "The benefactor himself is a person with a very strong sense of mystery and is unwilling to say anything. You know this too. When he saved the two of us the first time, let alone his identity information, he wasn't even willing to say a single extra word to us. Perhaps top experts all have this kind of temperament..."
Upon hearing this, Su Zhifei couldn't help but feel disappointed.
He didn't doubt what Su Zhiyu said.
Because that benefactor was indeed very low-key and seemed very cold, unwilling to leave any clues for others.
Thinking of this, he hurriedly said: "In my opinion, the benefactor must be in Jin Ling. We can continue to look for his whereabouts. This time the range is much smaller than before, so I suppose we should be able to find some clues!"
Su Zhiyu was afraid that her brother would see through the clues, so she pretended to be very agreeable and nodded repeatedly: "Brother, you are right! I was just thinking about this matter. Since we can narrow the range to just one city, Jin Ling, this time, it should be much easier to find the benefactor!"
After finishing, she hurriedly added: "However, we must be low-key and cannot search with great fanfare. After all, we are right under the benefactor's nose, and he doesn't want us to find him. If he notices, he might get angry, and he might even leave Jin Ling!"
Su Zhifei also agreed very much with Su Zhiyu's words and hurriedly said: "Don't worry about that, I will find a way!" ===== CHAPTER 1410 =====
