Chapter: 2848
Su Zhiyu’s harsh words gave her brother, Su Zhifei, a headache. He couldn’t help but think, “Did Grandpa really want to kill her mother? That was a mistake, but is it fair to blame her for it?”
He continued to ponder, “As a member of the Su family, she shouldn’t be obsessed with a man named Ye who is no longer alive. Why is she trying to buy the house he lived in? Isn’t she embarrassing our family?”
“Besides, we’re all adults. Does holding onto hatred really help us? The Su family has a fortune worth trillions. Just because Grandpa hurt her mother, do we really need to cut ties with him?”
“Separating ourselves from him would mean separating from the family’s wealth. In the end, that would hurt us too.”
He thought about their future, “If we lose our inheritance, what will we do? We are Su’s, not Du’s. Do we really think Grandpa and Grandma will give us anything then?”
However, Su Zhifei kept these thoughts to himself; he knew he couldn’t say anything to his sister. She had a very strong sense of right and wrong, and there was little chance of changing her mind. If he tried to express his feelings, she would likely get angry.
Feeling frustrated, Su Zhifei thought, “You fit the name Zhiyu better than I do.” He decided to pretend to agree with her, nodding and saying, “Zhiyu, you’re right. This situation is truly unforgivable. I can’t forgive it either.”
Su Zhiyu stayed silent, knowing that if her brother agreed, there must be a reason behind it.
Su Zhifei turned around and sighed. “Let me be honest with you. We won’t gain anything by going against Grandpa, and we can’t really punish him either.”
He paused, then spread his hands. “We can’t just let him face legal consequences like you mentioned. The old man is very careful and always has a backup plan. You claim he killed people, but where’s the proof?”
“As long as we don’t have direct evidence, he can just say we’re making things up. If needed, he can easily find someone to take the blame for him!”
“He has plenty of people who would do that. With just a word, he can get anyone to step forward and take the fall. Do you know how many people Su Anshun has helped him cover for? Those are the layers of protection he has!”
“If we don’t have the resources and connections of the Su family, we can’t even dream of taking down Grandpa, let alone someone like Su Anshun!”
Su Zhiyu listened quietly. Once Su Zhifei finished, he replied, “When did I say I wanted to bring him down?”
Su Zhifei asked, “Then what are you trying to do?”
Su Zhiyu answered seriously, “I want to accuse him. He may find ways to avoid punishment, but if I don’t accuse him, he won’t have to worry about anything! I want justice! Justice in many forms! Not just the outcome but also the process! I know getting a result is tough, but ensuring a fair process is something I can do. So, I will file a complaint against him today!”
Su Zhifei was taken aback. He knew the influence Su Zhiyu had.
