Zhou Chen replied: "In the past, yes, but now, no longer. She is gone, and everything has vanished into thin air. There is no need to dwell on the past."

Su Mingyu said in a deep voice: "I don't care about anything else, but she watched you die without saving you and let you stay in the detention center for several months before being released. I will never forgive her."

Zhou Chen: "I did make a mistake back then. It's only natural that they don't want to save me. Anyway, they didn't have much affection for me since I was a child."

Su Mingyu was silent for a long time, then said: "You may be right, but I still can't forgive her. From childhood to adulthood, only you and I are a real family. They don't treat us as a family at all. They are reluctant to spend money on our studies and are unwilling to take us to the hospital when we are sick. But as long as my eldest brother and Su Mingcheng have some requests, they will do their best to fulfill them. I really don't understand why. If they are sons and daughters, why do they treat you like this?"

"Okay, Mingyu, my sister, don't think too much. Tomorrow is Mom's funeral. When a person dies, the light goes out. Just let it all go."

Zhou Chen watched Su Mingyu's eyes turn red, and gently placed her head on his shoulder, and the two of them snuggled up to each other.

"Ming Yang, you ruined your life for me, so no matter what others say, you will always be the most important person to me. I can abandon everyone, but I will never abandon you. The same goes for you. No matter where you go, you must remember me, otherwise, I will make you pay."

"Of course I need to say that. You are my financial backer now. If not you, who else can I rely on?"

"You know what you're interested in."

Su Mingyu showed a satisfied smile. Having lacked the love of her parents since childhood, she regarded her twin brother, a boy and a girl, who was the best to her and considered everything for her, as more important than anyone else.

The two of them sat quietly, and suddenly Su Mingyu spoke again.

"Mingyang, today you said that Dad might not be able to go to America. Do you know anything?"

Zhou Chen said, "Big brother's personality is very similar to our father's. Do you think he can control Big sister-in-law? I'm afraid that in Big brother's family, Big sister-in-law is the one who really makes the decisions. In order to avoid taking care of Big sister-in-law during her confinement, our parents even made up such a lie. If you were Big sister-in-law, what would you think?"

"Of course I'm going to be furious."

"That's it. In this situation, do you think my sister-in-law will still be willing to take our father over? In my opinion, there is a high probability that he will not be able to go to America."

Su Mingyu sat up straight, looking shocked: "If I really can't go, won't Dad be mad?"

Zhou Chen said: "It's no use being angry. In fact, the best way is what I said before, rent a big house for Dad and find a nanny to take care of him. This will be good for Big Brother and everyone. But Big Brother obviously won't agree to it."

Su Daqiang is indeed capable of doing such things, but the basis of all this comes from the indulgence of his eldest brother Su Mingzhe. If everyone was like Su Mingyu, Su Daqiang would definitely not dare to do such things.

"Ming Yang, don't say such things anymore. Let me tell you what you think. I don't care about my reputation."

"To be honest, in my opinion, in this family, the only one who can control Dad, besides Mom who has passed away, is you. Dad obviously knows this, so he doesn't dare to live with you."

……

"By the way, Mingyu, how is Lao Meng treating you now?"

"He's very nice to me."

"Really? That's good. My personal suggestion is that you should be more careful. Sometimes when you work together for a long time, conflicts are inevitable. I don't want to see the day when you and Lao Meng fall out."

Although Su Mingyu in the plot did not fall out with Lao Meng in the end, it was also because Su Mingyu was able to withstand the test every time. If Su Mingyu took a wrong step, with Lao Meng's methods, Su Mingyu would probably not have a good ending.

"Ming Yang, you think too much. Master has been very kind to me and has great trust in me. I will never have a day where I fall out with him. But at least you have a conscience and care about me, your sister."

"Nonsense, you are my only sister in this world. If I don't care about you, who else will care about you?"

The two chatted for a long time before going to rest.

"I've packed your clothes and put them in your closet. You can wear them directly when you wake up tomorrow morning."

"okay, I get it."

Zhou Chen felt that he was lucky. He traveled through three worlds and met very nice people. His two wives and one sister were all very kind to him, so he was very grateful to the system for giving him such good treatment and fortunately not throwing him into a corner.

Back in his room, Zhou Chen picked up his cell phone and dialed a number.

"Hey, who are you looking for?"

"Liu Qing, it's me, Ming Yang."

"Ming Yang? No, why did you think of calling me? Are you back home?"

Zhou Chen smiled slightly. When he was in China, he had a very good relationship with Liu Qing. They often hung out together and could be considered close friends.

"Well, I'm back home."

"Then what are you waiting for? Where are you? I'll pick you up to welcome you."

"Forget about the welcoming party. I called to tell you something. Mingyu and I are together. We have important things to do in the next two days. You know Mingyu's personality. She definitely doesn't want to take a leave. So I want you to go to her place and help her look after her. If there is any problem, try to help her solve it. If you can't solve it, go directly to Lao Meng."

"No, Mingyu has something to say. Why didn't she tell me in person but asked you to convey it instead?"

"Don't ask so many questions. I can't tell you the reason directly. If you want to know, wait until you are done with your work these few days and go ask her. She will be asleep by now, so don't disturb her."

"Hey, are you kidding me? This is no joke. If Mingyu gives me trouble afterwards, I can't afford it."

"Then you can just put all the blame on me. Okay, I won't talk to you anymore. I'll find you after I'm done with my work in a few days. That's it. I'm hanging up."

Zhou Chen was lying on the bed. The reason he called Liu Qing was because he knew that if he didn't explain anything, Su Mingyu would be in trouble during the funeral tomorrow, so he planned to solve this trouble in advance.

If he acted first and reported later, even if Su Mingyu found out afterwards, she wouldn't be really angry with him, and he would be able to resolve any conflicts that might occur tomorrow.

No matter what, tomorrow is the day of my mother Zhao Meilan's funeral. If there are no problems, it would be better if there are no problems so that she can go in peace.

At the same time, Su Ming started a family.

Su Mingzhe and his father Su Daqiang squeezed into the same room.

Su Mingzhe was in high spirits after sleeping for an afternoon, but now he couldn't fall asleep. Su Daqiang couldn't fall asleep either. They both tossed and turned in different moods.

"Dad, Mingcheng and Mingyang had a fight today. I heard from Mingcheng that Mingyang had been in jail. What's going on?"

This matter has been weighing on Su Mingzhe's mind for an entire afternoon. He still can't figure out why so many things happened at home when he had only been abroad for ten years.

"Ugh."

Su Daqiang sighed heavily, "Mingcheng is right, Mingyang did go to jail, but this matter also has a lot to do with your mother."

"It's about mom, dad, what's going on?"

Su Daqiang had a serious expression and a far-reaching gaze, and his thoughts seemed to have gone back many years.

"This story started when Mingyang and Mingyu graduated from junior high school. At that time, supporting four children in school was really too much pressure for us, so your mother wanted Mingyu to give up her studies, learn to be a nurse, and then go to work as soon as possible. But Mingyu disagreed, and in the end Mingyang gave his opportunity to Mingyu, allowing Mingyu to continue to study in high school, while he went to a vocational school."

Su Mingzhe was surprised: "Didn't Ming Yang ask to go to vocational school because he didn't do well in the high school entrance exam?"

He was still at home at that time, but he was devoted to his studies and didn't care about other things at all, so he was not clear about the specific situation at that time. He always thought that his brother had to go to vocational school because of his poor academic performance.

Su Daqiang: "No, Mingyang's grades were very good at the time, and his high school entrance exam score was better than Mingyu's. But for Mingyu, he gave up his chance to go to high school and chose a vocational school, because vocational schools only require two or three years of study before you can go out to work."

"Later, although Mingyu went to high school, your mother was still unhappy. She refused to buy her teaching materials or school supplies, and refused to let her take extra classes. In order to let Mingyu continue her studies, Mingyang had to save money and gave all his living expenses to Mingyu so that she could take the college entrance examination."

Su Mingzhe said in disbelief: "How is it possible? Why didn't I know this all along?"

"Because your mother and I didn't know at the time. It was only after Mingyu fell out with us that she told us everything."

"Then what's going on with Ming Yang being in jail?"

"That year, Mingyu was about to take the college entrance examination. Her grades were very good. Her teacher said that as long as she worked hard, she would have a chance to get into the best Shuimu University. But your mother didn't want Mingyu to get into Shuimu University. She wanted Mingyu to go to a free teachers' college, so she didn't give Mingyu money for tutoring."

"Mingyang found out about it later, and he came back to ask your mom for money, but your mom still refused to give it to him. Mingyang had no choice but to go out to work and earn money to help Mingyu. He gave all the money he earned to Mingyu. Later, when he was working in a bar, he got into a conflict with someone and they started fighting, seriously injuring the person."

"The injured person was willing to negotiate privately as long as we paid enough for medical expenses and compensation. But your mother felt ashamed and was unwilling to pay, so Mingyang could not be bailed out and had to be detained in the detention center. After being detained for several months, Mingyu had no choice but to compromise with your mother for Mingyang and was willing to go to college for free, as long as your mother was willing to pay for mediation and let Mingyang be released."

"In the end, your mother paid to find the injured man to negotiate privately. After the negotiation was settled, Mingyang was released. But since then, Mingyang has never returned home. Except Mingyu, no one knows where he has gone."

After listening to this, Su Mingzhe was shocked. He never thought that such a thing would happen in the Su family after he left.

At this moment, he finally understood why Mingyu and Mingyang had such a good relationship and why Mingyu was able to give so much for Mingyang, because that was how Mingyang treated her in the past.

"This matter, Mom, she..."

He couldn't continue. Although he felt that the mother was wrong in this matter, he was his own son after all. Even if he made a mistake, how could he just watch his own son being locked up in jail and do nothing?

But now his mother is gone, and as a son, it is difficult for him to judge her.

Su Daqiang: "Mingzhe, now you should understand why I don't want to live with Mingyang, right? Mingyang is different from you. He is a man who will bear grudges. If I live with him, who knows how he will torment me."

Su Mingzhe didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Dad, Mingyang is not that kind of person."

"That's because you don't understand him. I'd rather live with him than anyone else." Su Daqiang was very firm.

Su Mingzhe had no choice, but now he had decided to take Su Daqiang to America, so he naturally didn't have to worry about this matter.

"Dad, there's something I don't quite understand. Why did you treat Mingyu and Mingyang like that when you were at home when we were little?"

Although he was a nerd, he could see that these two siblings were treated differently in their Su family.

Su Daqiang hesitated for a long time, facing Su Mingzhe's expectant gaze, and finally said: "Since you want to know, I will tell you more tonight."

"Your mother married me because of our city hukou. After our family solved the hukou problem for your mother and your uncle, your mother started to dislike me, saying that I was not a man, a coward, and that I was not worthy of her. Anyway, your mother is always angry with me for all kinds of inexplicable reasons."

"To be honest, I really didn't want to live with her at that time."

Su Mingzhe had been listening carefully the whole time. When he heard this, he said, "I remember this. I remember that there was a period of time when you and mom often quarreled and threatened to divorce. If I remember correctly, Mingyu and Mingyang were not born yet at that time, right?"

Su Daqiang: "You are right, but it is not me and your mother who are divorcing, but your mother and I who are divorcing, because she met an old lover who is a doctor in Shanghai when she attended a class reunion. In order to be with your mother, the man insisted that he could help your mother find a job in a hospital in Shanghai."

"So your mother wanted to abandon our family and go to the Magic City with that guy in order to move up the social ladder."

Su Mingzhe asked in disbelief: "Really?"

Su Daqiang sighed, "Your mother just left, do you think I need to lie to you? At that time, your mother was about to move out, but I didn't expect that she would find out that she was pregnant, and it's been almost four months.

You know your mother's health has not been very good. At such an advanced stage of pregnancy, having an abortion could be life-threatening, so we have no choice but to give birth to the baby.

As for that man, he disappeared immediately after he found out about this. Your mother had no one to rely on, so she naturally couldn't go to the Magic City, and could only give birth to Mingyu and Mingyang at home."

Hearing this, Su Mingzhe swallowed and couldn't help asking, "What about Mingyu and Mingyang, who are they?"

When Su Daqiang heard this, he immediately became anxious: "Of course it's mine, otherwise why would your mother hate me so much."

Su Mingzhe breathed a sigh of relief. They were siblings from the same father and mother, so they were just brothers.

Su Daqiang continued, "When I gave birth, the country's policies were tightened, and your mother and I were implicated and demoted. Since then, our family's situation has plummeted. We have no money, and naturally we can't bring up the idea of ​​divorce. We have been living like this ever since."

"Because of the birth of Mingyu and Mingyang, our family's living conditions have become worse. Can your mother not blame them?"

Only then did Su Mingzhe fully understand the reason behind all this.

"No wonder Mingyu always complains that mom is unfair. It turns out there is another reason. It's understandable that he doesn't have money to go to school, but when something like that happened to Mingyang, mom was unwilling to save him. Anyone would be heartbroken."

Su Daqiang sighed, "We really had no money at the time. Although I advised her several times to sell another house and rescue Mingyang first, your mother disagreed. I had no choice. Mingyang was a hard-working child. He stayed there for several months and suffered a lot."

"But now everything is fine. Mingyu has become successful. She remembers how good Mingyang was to her and takes good care of him. They have a very good relationship as siblings, so I don't need to worry about her anymore."

After hearing all this, Su Mingzhe felt embarrassed when he thought about what he said to Zhou Chen today. He thought that his younger brother was a man with no future who only relied on Mingyu. Now it seems that there is a reason for all this.

He gave so much to Mingyu back then, and now Mingyu is willing to give everything for him.

Comparing the relationship between the two of them, Su Mingzhe discovered that he was really not qualified to be the eldest brother.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 136: Incompetent Rage Su Mingcheng

In the early morning of the next day, Zhou Chen got up without eating breakfast. He set off with Su Mingyu and went to the downstairs of Su Mingcheng's house.

Even though the two sides had a very unpleasant argument yesterday and Zhou Chen and Su Mingcheng even had a fight, when they set off early this morning, Su Mingcheng held the portrait and did not take the initiative to provoke trouble again.

While on the road, Zhou Chen asked Su Mingyu to turn off her cell phone. Although Su Mingyu felt puzzled, she still obeyed Zhou Chen and turned off her cell phone.

From the time we set out to the funeral home and took a last look at the remains, the cremation process began. After the cremation, it was the funeral.

Because of Zhou Chen's appearance, Su Mingyu's cell phone was turned off in advance. Therefore, while waiting for the car to go to the cemetery, Su Mingyu was not continuously urged by the phone, and naturally there would be no conflict with Su Mingcheng.

Zhou Chen has no control over how chaotic Zhongcheng Group will be because of Su Mingyu’s absence.

Perhaps it was a bit irresponsible for Su Mingyu to disappear without a word for a few days, but if Zhongcheng Group really ran into trouble, in Zhou Chen's opinion, it might not be a bad thing.

Because this might also allow Lao Meng of Zhongcheng Group to see more clearly the importance of Su Mingyu.

Zhou Chen is certainly not as well versed as Su Mingyu in the intrigues of business, but he understands the plot and knows that Su Mingyu is loyal to Lao Meng, but Lao Meng does not completely trust Su Mingyu.

This kind of trust has nothing to do with character or personality, but rather it is because when one is in a high position, one will naturally develop a sense of distrust towards those around him or her who may pose a threat to oneself.

Lao Meng was indeed very good to Su Mingyu, and he played a big role in her rapid growth.

But Zhou Chen knew that in Zhongcheng Group, the person whom Lao Meng trusted the most was his financial director Lao Mao. Lao Meng chose Lao Mao for the matter of feigning illness and did not tell Su Mingyu a word.

This shows that Su Mingyu is not the most trustworthy subordinate of Lao Meng.

The Su family and their relatives all got on the bus prepared by the funeral home. There were dozens of people in total, and they were ready to go to the cemetery.

Su Mingcheng sat in the front holding the portrait and ashes. The third generation of the Su family had no grandchildren, so the eldest son Su Mingzhe should have been the one holding the ashes and portrait.

However, Su Mingcheng took the initiative to offer to personally send his mother off. Su Mingzhe was not a strong-willed person, and considering that Su Mingcheng had spent the most time with his mother over the years, he finally gave the responsibility to Su Mingcheng.

Although Zhou Chen thought this was a bit impolite, the other party had no objection, so as a semi-transparent person, he naturally would not say anything.
