Chapter: 2873
Su Zhiyu walked into the Du mansion, carrying a heavy schoolbag on her back. She had just finished negotiating with Su Anshun, the butler sent by her grandfather, Su Chengfeng. They completed the paperwork to transfer all the shares of the Sujia Yuanhang Transportation Group to her. Now, the complicated business of the Su family’s ocean transportation was in her hands.
As she arrived home, no one knew where she had been, so everyone was curious and asked her questions. Su Zhiyu simply made up an excuse about running an errand to avoid their inquiries. However, her brother, Su Zhifei, had a bad feeling. He suspected that Su Zhiyu had struck some kind of deal with their grandfather.
Worried, he went to his room and called Su Chengfeng. As soon as the call connected, he asked anxiously, “Grandpa, did you reach an agreement with Zhiyu?”
Su Chengfeng replied calmly, “What? Did Zhiyu tell you?”
Su Zhifei’s heart sank. He quickly responded, “No, I didn’t ask her. She just came back from outside.”
“Oh, I see,” Su Chengfeng said. “Zhiyu wanted to negotiate terms. She plans to leave the Su’s Ocean Shipping Group. The business is now hers.”
Su Zhifei felt dizzy. The old man had given her an industry worth hundreds of billions of dollars? This was beyond anything he could have imagined. A wave of discomfort washed over him. He thought, “Zhiyu never mentioned this to me. Did she see me as an outsider?”
He was also confused about why their grandfather was so willing to hand over such a significant part of the family business to her. “The ocean shipping business is a huge part of the Su family’s wealth, making up almost 20% to 25%. How could this be happening?”
Su Zhifei felt a wave of anger as he thought about how the Su family business he would inherit might be taken over by others. He wanted to confront his grandfather about why he had given such a big piece of the business to his sister, Su Zhiyu. But deep down, he knew he couldn’t do that. Questioning his grandfather would show his dissatisfaction with his sister and reveal his own greedy feelings. So, he held back his anger and said in a sad tone, “Oh… Zhiyu is so naive… Grandpa, please don’t support her.” He thought to himself that he would try to talk to her later and convince her to give the business back.
Su Zhifei’s words pleased his grandfather, Su Chengfeng, who had just made some tough decisions regarding the business. Chengfeng sighed and said, “It’s good to see you understand.”
Although Su Zhifei felt hurt inside, he quickly added, “Grandpa, maybe giving the business to Zhiyu isn’t such a bad idea for now. Our business is struggling, and maybe she can turn things around. If she does manage to succeed, I’ll find a way to help bring the business back to the Su family. That way, we won’t lose the Su family’s legacy, and we could even benefit from it.”
Su Chengfeng felt a bit reassured by his grandson’s words. “It’s good to know you think this way. As for your sister, I wonder if she can really make this business thrive…” He paused for a moment and added with a hint of hope, “Honestly, I’m curious to see what she can do!”
