“Then what should we do, Fourth Brother? I’m tired of carrying these suitcases.” Su Ren wanted to cry, but she had no tears. Then she sat down by a flower bed on the roadside dejectedly.
Su Zhen was now facing a dilemma, and after pondering for a moment, he said hesitantly, “I have a friend that we could live with for a few days.” Su Zhen was a pop star, yet he had been reduced to the point of living a life of a nomad. This was simply too pathetic.
‘When Su Zhen paused and pondered for a moment, he turned his head to look at Su Ren, who had an ugly expression on her face, and asked, “What happened between you and Su Jun? What caused his attitude toward you to change so drastically?”
Previously, Su Jun had doted on Su Ren. Even if Su Ren wanted the moon and the stars, Su Jun would do everything in his power to get them for her. But Su Jun had become bitter toward Su Ren, even chasing her out of the Su family home.
$u Ren froze and quickly put on a pitiful expression as she said aggrievedly, “Maybe it’s because I’m unlikable and that I usually keep my thoughts to myself. I’m not as good with words as Su Su, so Big Brother would constantly misunderstand me.”
After saying that, Su Ren lowered her head. This fragile and pitiful look made Su Zhen believe that Su Ren had indeed been bullied by Su Su.
When Su Zhen heard this explanation, his heart immediately softened. Su Zhen clenched his fists and comforted, “Don’t worry. I will teach that cursed little girl a lesson for you. That brat is so young, yet she’s full of schemes. What a disgusting child!”
Su Ren lowered her head pitifully once more after listening to Su Zhen’s dissatisfied words. But no matter how much Su Zhen defended Su Ren, the two could only crouch by the roadside along with their luggage, with a defeated expression on their faces.
Su Zhen was worried that being recognized by others would ruin his reputation and image, but he was still unwilling to go to his friend for help. Su Ren was also a young lady who could not bear the slightest bit of hardship.
After sitting by the roadside for a long while, Su Ren clamored and begged that Su Zhen bring her to a hotel so that they could rest. She complained that it was too hot outside.
While Su Zhen stroked his chin in distress, he suddenly thought of a more feasible plan. He said in a low voice, “How about you go and apologize to Big Brother since it’s all one big misunderstanding. Can’t you just admit that you’re wrong?”
“No, I can’t do that!” Su Ren subconsciously refused. She knew that Su Jun had caught her doing countless heinous acts, and he had long become suspicious of her. If she were to go back and apologize now, Su Jun would not forgive her.
$u Jun would probably stand by his decision and send Su Ren to boarding school even though she apologized. When Su Ren noticed Su Zhen’s surprised gaze, she hurriedly added, “I’m afraid that Big Brother would still be angry with me and send me to boarding school anyway. I’m scared, Fourth Brother.”
$u Zhen then patted Su Ren on the shoulder and promised, “I won’t let him send you to boarding school as long as I’m around.”
“R-Really?” Su Ren’s eyes lit up as she said in surprise. Su Zhen patted his chest and immediately reassured, “I made a promise to you, and I won’t go back on my word!”
After that, Su Zhen’s phone vibrated. He casually took the phone out of his pocket and saw that he had received a message from Su Jun, asking him to go home and talk about their recent argument.
The message read: “We’re brothers, and we will always disagree on certain things, but it’s not safe for you to be roaming around the city. You should come home. I have something I want to talk to you about.”
When Su Zhen saw Su Jun’s thoughtful message, he felt a warmth pass through his heart. The unpleasant thought of their disagreement gradually disappeared, and Su Zhen became emotional for a moment.
‘Although Big brother treated Su Ren poorly yet doted on Su Su, the fact remains that Su Su is our biological sister. Big Brother must have his reasons for his decisions. As a younger brother, I should understand where Big Brother is coming from.”
After reading Su Jun’s message, Su Zhen got up from the sidewalk, dusted off his butt, and pulled Su Ren up. Then he said, “Let’s go home and apologize to Big Brother.”
Su Ren’s face became unsightly. She hesitated standing up and wanted to persuade her fourth brother to stay in a hotel to avoid being recognized. But at this moment, Su Zhen had already stood up enthusiastically, picked up the luggage, and hailed for a cab. Su Ren knew that she could do nothing to stop
Su Zhen, so she followed him reluctantly.
‘When the two finally arrived at the Su family home, Su Zhen immediately led Su Ren to his big brother’s home office. He then patted Su Ren on the head and said, “Big Brother, Su Ren has something to tell you.” After saying that, Su Zhen winked at Su Ren, encouraging her to apologize.
Su Ren lowered her head and tightly gripped her left sleeve. She then apologized reluctantly, “Big Brother, I know that I’ve let you down multiple times in the past.. Will you please give me another chance to make things right?”
