~7 min read 1,357 words

Hearing Ye Chen say he was going to visit her home, a surge of joy finally welled up in Su Zhiyu's heart. She immediately nodded gratefully and said, "Alright, Mr. Ye. Then I'll go pick up my brother first, and then wait for you at my mother's residence."

"Alright." Ye Chen nodded slightly and said to Chen Zekai, "Old Chen, you make the arrangements. After Young Master Su gets off the plane, take him to meet up with Miss Su."

Chen Zekai said without hesitation, "Don't worry, Young Master, I'll arrange it immediately."

Ye Chen nodded and then said to Su Zhiyu, "Miss Su, go to the airport first. See you this afternoon."

"See you this afternoon, Mr. Ye!"

After bidding farewell to Ye Chen, Su Zhiyu drove to the airport impatiently.

Although Su Zhifei chose to lean toward his grandfather, Su Chengfeng, after his family encountered danger, Su Zhiyu did not blame him in her heart.

Su Zhiyu actually knew her brother's personality very well. He wasn't a bad person, but he had been pampered for too many years, and he indeed lacked a bit of responsibility.

Plus, before his grandfather gave up the position of family head, he had always been very strong. If her brother didn't show his loyalty to him, he would definitely have driven her brother out of the house and completely deprived him of his qualifications and opportunities to inherit the Su family in the future.

For the pampered Su Zhifei, this was naturally unacceptable.

Although Su Zhiyu was not old, she understood the principle that "it is easier to change rivers and mountains than a person's nature." She could understand in her heart why her brother made such a choice under those circumstances.

And her brother had knelt and walked a thousand miles this time; she knew without looking that he must have experienced extreme hardship, so she, as his younger sister, naturally felt very heartbroken.

Today, Ye Chen showed mercy and let her brother return, so Su Zhiyu couldn't wait to see him sooner.

When Su Zhiyu drove to the airport, the plane Su Zhifei was on had already landed.

Although Su Zhifei's clothes were already tattered and in a mess, because picking him up today was also a sudden event and the Ye family hadn't prepared a decent set of clothes for him, they could only do it this way and bring him back first.

Due to Chen Zekai's coordination, the Ye family's staff sent Su Zhifei directly out of the airport to meet with Su Zhiyu.

At this time, Su Zhiyu parked the car on the side of the road and waited anxiously in the car. When she saw several staff members surrounding a man who looked like a beggar walking quickly out of the airport, she recognized her brother at a glance.

She couldn't care about feeling sad for her brother's miserable image; she hurriedly pushed open the car door and greeted him, shouting with a choked voice, "Brother!"

Su Zhifei looked in the direction of the sound. Seeing it was Su Zhiyu, tears instantly welled up and fell from his eyes.

At this time, Su Zhiyu had already run to him. Completely ignoring his dirty appearance, she hugged him and cried, saying, "Brother! You're finally back..."

Su Zhifei couldn't help but cry out as well, saying with some panic and inferiority, "Zhiyu, brother is too dirty..."

"It's okay..." Su Zhiyu shook her head and cried, saying, "Brother, you've suffered in the past six months..."

Su Zhifei sighed and said with a face full of piety, "I haven't suffered much. It's just that whenever I think of you and Mom, I feel very guilty and have never been able to forgive myself..."

Su Zhiyu hurriedly comforted him, "Those things are all in the past. Brother, don't mention them anymore. Mom and I both understand you very well. Mom isn't angry with you, and I'm not angry with you either."

As she spoke, she hurriedly wiped her tears and said, "Brother, Mom is waiting for you at home. Let's go back quickly!"

Su Zhifei said somewhat awkwardly, "Zhiyu... it wouldn't be good for Mom to see me like this now... How about I find a place to take a shower and change into some clothes first..."

"No need." Su Zhiyu shook her head and said, "Mom has already prepared a full set of clean clothes for you, and she even prepared a razor for you. Hurry up and go back with me..."

Su Zhifei asked in surprise, "Mom knew Mr. Ye would let me come back today? Could it be that Mom went to beg Mr. Ye?"

"No." Su Zhiyu shook her head and explained, "I told Mom yesterday that I wanted to go beg Mr. Ye today to see if he would be willing to let you come back temporarily to attend Dad's wedding. Mom said that as long as I spoke up, Mr. Ye would definitely agree, so she bought all these things for you in advance yesterday afternoon."

Su Zhifei was slightly stunned, then nodded and sighed, "It seems Mom guessed that Mr. Ye would show mercy to me..."

Su Zhiyu nodded and urged hurriedly, "Brother, let's get in the car and talk. Don't let Mom wait too anxiously."

As she spoke, Su Zhiyu thanked the Ye family's subordinates who were accompanying them and brought her brother to her car.

Looking at Su Zhiyu's clean and tidy Volvo sedan, Su Zhifei said somewhat cautiously, "Zhiyu, brother is dirty and smelly. I will definitely make your car dirty..."

Su Zhiyu opened the car door, pushed him in, and said earnestly, "Brother, we are siblings. No car is more important than you."

After saying that, she hurriedly returned to the driver's seat and drove away from the airport.

On the way, Su Zhiyu asked him, "Brother, how was your journey? Are you tired?"

"Not tired." Su Zhifei shook his head and said earnestly, "At the beginning, I felt very tired, as if I was going to be exhausted to death every day. But later, I adapted very quickly. To be honest, suddenly stopping now, I'm not even used to it. The journey on the plane just now was quite torturous."

Su Zhiyu couldn't help but be a little surprised. She didn't expect that her brother, who had always been pampered, could adapt to such a difficult pilgrimage.

Su Zhifei continued, "I couldn't persist in doing anything before. Sometimes I felt that smoking was really uncomfortable for my respiratory tract and wanted to quit, but it was hard to persist for a morning. Sometimes I would get a sudden urge to work out, but I would give up after not even two days. Sometimes I also wanted to calm down and learn something useful for myself, but for so many years, there wasn't anything I could truly persist in..."

Speaking of this, Su Zhifei sighed and said with emotion, "This pilgrimage made me understand a principle. Actually, it's not that difficult to persist in anything. What's difficult is just those first few days. As long as you persist through those first few days, it's not that difficult afterward. Kneeling and kowtowing while walking every day sounds hard to accept, but after those first few days, I gradually adapted. Moreover, I also quit smoking. Persisting every day with a focused mind, my whole body's physical and mental state has improved a lot. I feel like I've never been as natural and clear-headed as I am now in my whole life. So I have always been very grateful to Mr. Ye. To say something that sounds sentimental but comes from the bottom of my heart, it was he who reshaped my soul."

Su Zhiyu listened, dumbfounded.

She had never dreamed that her lazy and playboy brother would have such a rebirth-like change after half a year of tempering.

That young man who was ignorant, arrogant, and domineering had quickly faded away, and in his place was a humble and determined man.

This made her heart, which was originally a bit sad, suddenly feel a bit more comforted and joyful!
