In reality, Su's mother hadn't slept a wink in bed since yesterday, but whenever someone approached the door, she would quickly close her eyes and pretend to be asleep.

When she was alone in the house, she kept praying to the Bodhisattva to bless her children so that they could return safely.

She couldn't let her husband worry anymore. In order not to give anything away, Su's mother had been sleeping in the house almost all day yesterday.

Even meals were brought to her bedroom by the family's servants.

So everyone in the family assumed that Su's mother was unaware of this matter.

After the two finished eating, they had just sat down on the sofa when the older brother, Su Linzhe, walked in.

I was supposed to come back to see my sister this afternoon, but something came up at work and I've been in a meeting ever since.

Upon entering, I saw Su Ya sitting on the sofa in the living room, talking to her parents.

He quickened his pace, holding his sister's hand tightly.

"Little sister, are you alright? You scared your big brother to death."

Hearing this, Su Qinghai coughed heavily. Su Linzhe then realized that the family hadn't told their mother about his sister and brother's disappearance. They had been lying to her, telling her that his sister had gone to Grandma Yan's house. Because his sister often visited Grandma Yan and frequently stayed overnight, this was the perfect excuse.

Their younger brother is often away filming, and they've gotten used to it.

Unexpectedly, Su's mother, Tang Lijiao, spoke up: "Alright, you two don't need to play games anymore. I already knew yesterday, but I didn't say anything because I was afraid you would worry."

Upon hearing this, Su Linzhe stopped hiding it.

"The day before yesterday, we heard that after you boarded the ship, you encountered a storm at sea. It almost scared my dad and me to death. We tried everything to find you but couldn't. I was so worried. How did you get back?"

Su Ya did not answer; these matters were for her second brother to answer.

"Did Young Master Ye find us?"

"Young Master Ye."

"Yes, big brother, you have no idea how amazing my sister and that top student are. The two of them actually tried to build a hydroelectric generator, but they didn't succeed. Later, I found a gravity bicycle, and they even assembled a signal transmitter. Then they pedaled quickly to connect the power and send out the signal."

"Gravity bike, that's the bike you rode."

You know, gravity-powered bicycles are difficult even for men to ride due to gravity, said the older brother, Su Linzhe, glancing at his younger brother's small frame with disdain.

"It wasn't me, it was my sister. She was exhausted from riding that bicycle."

Su Linxi explained.

"You're a grown man, how could you let your sister do something so dangerous? Ah! You're such a waste of your good looks. You can't even handle such a small thing. You're not allowed to take your sister out anymore."

After hearing his younger brother's words, Su Linzhe immediately started criticizing him without saying a word.

"No, brother, the other boys tried too, and they couldn't get it to move either."

Although I hate to admit it, their physical strength is really far inferior to that of their younger sister.

“If other men don’t work out, then isn’t she their sister? As her brother, don’t you know how to show her any tenderness?”

I just finished criticizing my younger brother, Su Linxi.

He turned and changed his tone to show concern.

"Ya Ya, do you want to go to the hospital for a check-up now? You wait here, I'll go get the car right now."

"No need, brother, I just need some rest. Besides, the military doctor Ye Qinchuan brought has already examined me; I'm just a little exhausted, but there are no other problems."

Suya replied.

Su Qinghai, the father, and Tang Lijiao, the mother, only then learned that such a thing had happened. Although they didn't say anything, they looked at their second son with displeasure in their eyes.

Su Linxi quickly changed the subject.

"Big brother, why are you so late coming back?"

"Something came up unexpectedly at the company, and the meeting took a long time."

Su Linzhe answered somewhat hesitantly.

Su Linxi didn't understand what she was hearing.

However, Su Ya sensed that something was wrong with her older brother.

Su Linxi continued speaking, while also complaining, "Big brother, you don't know, that sparkling water you guys sponsored is really useless. You can't boil it to cook noodles. Although it tastes good, it's not as good as mineral water on the island. You have no idea how awful that filtered seawater tastes."

Su Linxi rambled on and on, and then Su Linzhe's face turned ugly.

Meanwhile, Su Ya, who had been observing her elder brother Su Linzhe, caught him.

"Brother, something's not right."

For some reason, Suya thought of the internet.

She quickly opened Weibo on her phone and saw that some people were actually criticizing the sparkling water sponsored by the "big brother." They were saying that if it were bottled mineral water, the guests wouldn't have had to go through so much trouble, having to filter the water themselves, and who knows what problems they might have gotten from drinking it.

They also questioned the production team and the "divine sparkling water," accusing them of murder.

This hat is a bit too big.

Although Su Linzhe always acts as a hands-off manager at the company, he is still informed of any major decisions and involved. That afternoon, everyone was discussing public relations strategies; if these PR efforts aren't handled well, the company's reputation will collapse.

After reading Weibo.

Suya turned off her phone.

Then she heard Su Linxi still complaining about the "divine sparkling water," so Su Ya pushed her second brother, Su Linxi, hard.

"Little sister, why did you push me? I was just getting to the point."

Su Linxi turned around and said to her younger sister with some displeasure.

Then I saw my sister's icy expression.

He immediately shut his mouth.

"Brother, do you need my help?"

Upon hearing her sister's question, Su Linzhe already knew that she had seen the news about the "miracle sparkling water" online.

"No need, it's a minor issue. The company's public relations department can handle it."

"If you need any help, just ask. Don't forget, we're family."

"kindness."

Su Linzhe watched as his younger sister and older brother spoke in riddles, completely unable to understand what they were saying.

Meanwhile, Su's father, Su Qinghai, received a message from his assistant.

Ever since he learned that the "Fairy Sparkling Water" was related to his son, his assistant has been keeping a close eye on it.

Su Qinghai also knew that his son's company seemed to be encountering problems.

"Lin Zhe."

"dad."

“If a legal team is needed, I can send the Su Group's legal team to help.”

"Dad, really, you don't need to. I can handle it myself."

"Just say what you need. Like your sister said, we're family, and family doesn't need to be so polite."

After hearing these words, Su Linzhe felt his eyes well up with tears.

To be honest, during these past few years of working hard abroad, I never asked my family for help or told them about the difficulties I encountered, all because I wanted to prove myself. I had to overcome everything on my own.

Now he finally feels the warmth of home.
