Chapter: 2933

Su Chengfeng was worried. He knew that the only person who could stop the mysterious master was his granddaughter, Su Zhiyu. He turned to Su Anshun and Elder He and said, “If Zhiyu speaks up for me, that person might back off or at least delay chasing me.”

Su Anshun agreed, saying, “This mysterious person must care deeply for Zhiyu. After all, he followed her all the way from Japan to Jinling to protect her. If she really does say something for you, it could make a big difference.”

With a sigh, Su Chengfeng replied, “If I can’t fight him and can’t run away, the only choice left is to plead for mercy.”

Elder He then asked, “Master, you know Miss Zhiyu well. Do you really think she will be easy to persuade?”

“That’s true,” Su Chengfeng admitted, looking troubled. “She’s quite demanding. I once gave her the entire Ocean Shipping Group just to keep her quiet. Now, if I have to plead with her again, who knows what she will ask for this time?”

He paused, his expression darkening. “I gave her the Ocean Shipping Group to see if she could make it thrive. If she fails, it would be just as bad as if I had kept it myself. But if she does succeed, I will want it back one day, along with any profits. I can’t keep giving her more of my businesses; I can’t afford to keep losing more.”

Su Anshun suggested, “Master, why not call her and see what she thinks?”

“Good idea!” Su Chengfeng nodded. “I’ll call her right now. Oh, and Anshun, I…”

Su Anshun looked around nervously and asked, “Do you know what she has been up to these last two days?”

“Master, the eldest lady went to the Buckingham Palace Hotel today,” he quickly replied.

“What?!” Su Chengfeng frowned and demanded, “Is she there to talk to the Ye family about a partnership?”

Su Anshun clarified, “No, she’s meeting with Ito. You know, Ito has been staying at Buckingham Palace recently.”

Su Chengfeng sighed in relief and nodded, “I almost forgot about that. Shou Dao was trying to find a way to see Ito Xiuhiko, who has been missing at the hotel. Now Zhiyu is going to see him. Do you think Ito Xiuhiko will help her?”

Su Anshun nodded and said, “According to my sources, after she arrived at Buckingham Palace, Ito Emi, Ito Xiuhiko’s sister, picked her up in the lobby.”

“What?!” Su Chengfeng exclaimed in surprise. “Ito Yuhiko is okay with this?”

Su Anshun added, “My people followed her, and she did indeed go into Ito Yuhiko’s room.”

Su Chengfeng was taken aback and sighed, “Ever since the three major clans started fighting in Tokyo, the Ito family has been tough on us. Our ocean shipping group has not faced any penalties, but they still aren’t willing to partner with us. As the heir of the Su family, Shou Dao should not meet with Ito Xiuhiko. I doubt Zhiyu would have done this on her own.”

Su Anshun agreed, “The eldest lady is talented and smart. Her speaking skills are far beyond those of most young people, and now she runs the Su family’s ocean transportation group.”

Maybe Ito Yuihiko could be convinced by her. She had made a connection.

Su Chengfeng said happily, “If that’s the case, the ocean shipping business could really come back to life. Zhiyu seems to have some talent.”

He quickly picked up his phone and sent a message to Su Zhiyu, saying, “Zhiyu, please call Grandpa when you have a moment.”

When Su Zhiyu saw the message, she immediately told Charlie Wade. She also asked him, “Mr. Ye, should I reply to him now?”

Charlie nodded with a smile and said, “Yes, go ahead and see what he says.”

Su Zhiyu quickly called Su Chengfeng.

The call connected quickly. Su Chengfeng pretended to care as he asked, “Zhiyu, how have you been these past few days? Are you facing any problems that Grandpa can help with?”

Su Zhiyu replied coolly, “I’m fine. I’m working on revitalizing the ocean shipping business. I appreciate your offer, but I don’t need any help.”
