Chapter 303 The Complex Su Family
At this moment, the Su family seemed to be shrouded in a cold and heavy haze.
The eldest brother Su Linmo sat in the main seat. He was already in his thirties and had experienced the hardships of life. His eyes revealed calmness and wisdom.
He was wearing a black suit, and every line of the straight fabric showed his majesty in the Su family. His aura of authority without even getting angry made the air seem to freeze.
The second brother, Su Jingchen, sat aside, with his brown hair hanging down slightly in a messy manner, his narrow eyes slightly narrowed, and his delicate and beautiful face as perfect as a sculpture.
As a pop star who has been popular for several years, he exudes a unique charm, which is a combination of his brilliance on the stage and his unrestrained nature in life.
He even opened an entertainment company to support his elder brother's Su Group. At this moment, he was leaning back in his chair, tapping the armrest with his fingers, as if thinking about something.
Su Yuqi was looked at coldly by her two brothers, and the arrogance she had shown outside had disappeared without a trace.
"Our group is planning to spend 1.5 billion to bid for a piece of land in the emerging development zone. Originally, we were determined to get this piece of land. With the marriage between Yuning and the Fu family, no one in City B dared to compete with us. But during the bidding yesterday, the Jun family unexpectedly snatched this piece of land away."
Su Linmo said this while observing Su Yuqi's expression.
He paused and continued, "I called the Third Young Master to ask if the Su family had offended him in some way, but he asked me to ask you."
"Tell me, how did you offend the Third Young Master?"
Su Linmo's face was tightly tied. He usually didn't take care of his younger brother. After his parents passed away and he took over the Su Group, he was extremely busy every day.
It would have been fine if Su Jingchen was older, as both Su Yuqi and Su Yuning were raised by housekeepers and nannies.
Su Yuqi has been naughty since childhood and has always been a bully in school, which has also made Su Yuning an arrogant person.
Su Linmo looked at Su Yuqi, his eyes revealing helplessness and disappointment.
He knew that he had not disciplined his younger brother enough, but it was too late to regret now.
Su Yuqi's heart tightened when he heard his elder brother's question. He immediately guessed that this must be what Jun Zechen said at the racecourse about solving the problem in his own way.
His eyes flickered and he didn't dare to look his elder brother in the eye.
"Brother, it's just a piece of land. Just give it to Jun's family. It's Jun Zechen who is bullying me and Yuning."
There was still resentment in his voice.
"Just give it to me? Su Yuqi, you've been in the company for almost a year, and not only have I not seen any ability from you, I still don't see your responsibility or commitment!"
Su Linmo's voice suddenly rose.
He stood up suddenly, put his hands on the table, leaned forward slightly, and stared at Su Yuqi.
"For this piece of land, Su's invested a lot of time and energy in the early stage to conduct market research, evaluate the land value, and formulate a reasonable bidding strategy. It is also the target of the strategic department's transfer planning for Su's, which is of great significance to the subsequent expansion of Su's."
"You actually said you would give it to me?"
The Su Group was originally an enterprise mainly engaged in manufacturing. The new land was to be used as a new production base. Its importance to the Su Group can be imagined.
The Jun family is now in its heyday under the control of the third young master. They are involved in many fields and have strong financial strength and extensive network resources. These networks are even involved in politics and the military, which Su Linmo cannot find out.
Moreover, some of the Su family's inside information about the land came from the Fu family. Even Mr. Fu was very cautious with the Jun family, so how could the Su family afford to offend them?
Su Linmo sat back in his chair and closed his eyes slightly, trying to relieve the fatigue in his heart, but the heavy pressure always followed him like a shadow.
"Tell me exactly how you offended the Third Young Master."
"Brother, some time ago, Yuning, Fu Yunchen and I went to the Beijing-Hong Kong Jockey Club to ride horses. We met a girl named Su Jingyao. She seduced Fu Yunchen before and was Fu Yunchen's first love in college. However, Fu Yunchen and Yuning are engaged now, but he still can't forget her."
Su Yuqi's tone showed dissatisfaction with Su Jingyao.
"I just thought that she was a girl born in a common family, but her methods were powerful, so I ridiculed her. As a result, she scolded me and was heard by Yuning. I was ready to slap her on the spot, but... Yuning didn't hit her, and was slapped by Su Jingyao instead."
His voice rose a little, with a hint of anger.
"I couldn't stand Yuning being beaten, so I prepared to fight back, but the result was..."
Before Su Yuqi could finish speaking, Su Linmo interrupted her with a frown.
"You are a grown man, hitting a woman?"
"Yu Ning has never been wronged since she was a child, let alone being slapped. I don't allow anyone to bully her, let alone a woman who wants to snatch her fiancé away. But who knows that she is the woman of the Third Young Master."
Su Yuqi's eyes flashed with panic as she defended herself.
"Besides, I didn't succeed in beating her. The Third Young Master came over and gave me a whip. I heard from you before that we can't offend the Su family, so I had already stepped down. But the Third Young Master refused to give in and insisted that Yu Ning and I apologize to Su Jingyao in public."
Su Yuqi's face was filled with indignation and he clenched his fists tightly.
Su Jingchen smiled sarcastically on his cynical face.
"Su Yuqi, you really dote on Su Yuning. People who don't know would think she is our biological sister. You spoil her to no end. Can you handle it?"
Su Yuqi glared at Su Jingchen.
"You...none of your business!"
"Su Yuqi, so if you and Su Yuning don't apologize, the consequence is that the Su family will offend the Jun family. Not only will the future development of the Su family be hindered, but they may also be attacked by the Jun family in various ways in the future?"
Su Linmo hit the nail on the head.
Su Yuqi had nothing to say and lowered her head.
"Brother, what do you want me to do?"
There was a tone of compromise in his voice, knowing that he had made a mistake and now he could only think of ways to make up for it.
"Take Yuning with you, contact the Third Young Master, and apologize in person, especially to gain forgiveness from Miss Su Jingyao. Do you understand?"
Before, Su Yuqi and Su Yuning relied on the power of the Su family and were somewhat arrogant and conceited, but he turned a blind eye to it. After all, the Su family could afford to support two young masters and young ladies.
But now, because of the marriage with the Fu family, Su Yuning's ambitions have become bigger and bigger, and she doesn't take anyone seriously anymore.
Can everyone be offended?
Su Yuqi clenched his fists and nodded under the gaze of his eldest and second brothers.
Su Jingchen sneered, it turned out that he had been disliked since he was a child.
Su Linmo sighed deeply.
At first, when Su's father and mother had a stable relationship, they were considered the warmest and happiest among the wealthy families, but it was all superficial.
After giving birth to her younger sister, Su's mother thought her life would be happier. However, fate dealt her a heavy blow at this moment.
Su's mother discovered that Su's father had been cheating on her for a long time.
This cruel fact made Su's mother feel heartbroken, her world view collapsed instantly, and she even suffered from postpartum depression.
When he was a child, Su Yuqi was naughty and mischievous.
One day, he took his two-year-old sister out to play. At that time, he did not understand the weight of responsibility and only thought that it was the birth of his sister that made his mother emotionally unstable.
So, he naively prepared to take his sister out to play so that his mother would not have to take care of her.
He naively thought that this would make his mother feel better.
However, after Su Yuqi took his sister out, he went somewhere else. When he went back to look for his sister, she was gone.
Because Su's mother was taking medicine and was in a bad mental state, she did not notice the disappearance of her child.
The servants at home also thought that Su Yuqi was just taking his sister to play in the small garden, and they did not expect that such a thing would happen.
When Su's mother found out, the entire Su family fell into chaos and panic.
Su's mother, who was not severely depressed, completely collapsed after learning that her little daughter was missing. She was already disheartened by her father's infidelity, and now the loss of her daughter was even more unbearable for her.
Su's father has feelings for Su's mother. He is the typical man who likes men at home and outside as well.
After learning that Su Yuqi lost his sister, he was furious and punished Su Yuqi with family rules to make him remember this lesson.
However, under the double blow of her husband's betrayal and the loss of her daughter, Su's mother suffered from nervous breakdown and sometimes even became furious. Her emotions became extremely unstable, sometimes crying and sometimes yelling.
When Su Yuqi saw her mother like this, she felt scared and guilty.
He knew he had made an unforgivable mistake, but he had not done it on purpose.
Afterwards, in order to comfort Su's mother, Su's father went out to look for a daughter, and also found many orphans aged two or three, intending to pretend to be daughters to stabilize Su's mother's condition.
At first, they looked for many children, but in the end only Su Yuning was found, making Su's mother think that this was her own daughter.
It was also at that time that Su Yuning stayed in the Su family.
Su Yuqi also liked and welcomed the new girl who could stabilize her mother's condition because she made her mother's condition worse.
He took out all his guilt for losing his sister on Su Yuning, and treated her with great care and love.
After Su Yuning came to the Su family, Su's mother loved her as her own daughter, and Su's father saw that her condition had improved a lot, and he was also very kind to this adopted daughter.
After his daughter had been looking for her for two years, he stopped looking.
It was only when Su Linmo grew up and took over the company that he discovered that Su's father had stopped looking for his younger sister long ago. He had no feelings for Su's mother's last daughter and only treated her as a tool to appease her emotions.
Su's mother was already weak due to pregnancy and childbirth, and she suffered various blows afterwards. Even though Su's father finally found a fake daughter to accompany her, Su's mother only no longer had the regret of losing her daughter. However, her body and mind were already riddled with wounds, and she could no longer bear more pain.
Finally, when Su Yuning was ten years old, her mother passed away.
When Su's mother was alive, no one dared to say that Su Yuning was not the biological daughter of the Su family. After Su's mother passed away, Su Linmo originally wanted to tell Su Yuning the fact, but Su Yuqi refused to do so.
He said that Su Yuning had already considered herself a member of the Su family. Telling her this would make her suffer the blow of losing her mother and then the blow of losing her three brothers.
At Su Yuqi's pleading, Su Linmo agreed to let Su Yuning stay in the Su family as a young lady of the Su family.
After Su's mother died, Su's father continued to fool around for a few years, and eventually died in a car accident.
The three brothers of the Su family were not surprised by their father's death and just held the funeral according to the normal procedures.
They had long lost their feelings for this irresponsible father, and his departure did not have much impact on them.
The saddest person at the funeral was Su Yuning. She didn't know what her father had done. She only knew that her father smiled at her every time he came home. Later, he came less often, and she just thought that her father was busy with work. She had feelings for her father.
