37: Chapter 35 [First Be a Person, Then Do Things] 37: Chapter 35 [First Be a Person, Then Do Things] 035 First Be a Person, Then Do Business

As Su Feiyu was taken away, the sound of the police siren gradually faded, and the Jiuxi Rose Garden Noble District regained its usual tranquility.

“There’s a saying: evil begets evil, it’s just not time yet.

Su Feiyu really had it coming.”

Inside Villa No.

1 of the Su Family, Su Liuli recalled Su Feiyu’s pleading just now, far from feeling sympathy, she instead wore an expression of sheer delight.

Because…

in her view, Su Feiyu’s attempt to fight for the Su Family successor position and defend his pitiful self-esteem, by extending his poisonous hand towards Su Yuxin, was truly an act deserving death.

“The most hateful part is that he was clearly the one who ordered Gou Wei to drive into Doctor Ye, and after the incident, he pretended to settle the dispute with feigned sincerity, too insidious!”

Su Jindi also showed a look of satisfaction.

He had always found Su Feiyu very annoying, and now that Su Feiyu intended to kill Ye Fan, thereby indirectly targeting Su Yuxin’s life, he wished Su Feiyu would spend his lifetime in prison.

“Not only that, he returned home and acted dumb and confused, asking Grandfather to save Doctor Ye – he really missed his calling not going to Hollywood.” Reminded by Su Jindi, Su Liuli couldn’t help but remember Su Feiyu’s pretentious behavior, and she was filled with indignation.

“Is he not satisfied with the chaos in this family already?”

As the saying goes, harmony in the family leads to prosperity in all things.

No family leader wishes to see internal competition turn into a life-or-death struggle.

Su Hongyuan, as the Su Family Patriarch, was no exception.

In the past two years, he had given enough support to Su Yuxin.

On one hand, he valued Su Yuxin’s ability, providing her with opportunities to contribute to the Su Family’s flourishing development.

Beyond that, more importantly, he wanted to use Su Yuxin to stimulate Su Feiyu, to provoke his fighting spirit, compete with Su Yuxin, and ultimately refine him into a qualified clan successor.

Man proposes, God disposes.

Su Hongyuan had not expected that Su Yuxin would exceed his expectations by so much, nor did he expect that Su Feiyu, whom he had seen with great potential, would turn out to be so petty – to the point of committing fratricide out of fear of losing the successor position and his self-esteem being damaged!

However—

Although Su Hongyuan was also very angry at Su Feiyu’s actions, to the point that he had previously bitterly rebuked him as a “wretch,” on the other hand, no matter what, Su Feiyu was his eldest grandson, the successor he had secretly decided upon.

He hoped that Su Feiyu would experience some setbacks, but he did not wish for Su Feiyu to end up in prison.

Moreover, in his view, given the power Ye Fan had shown tonight, if he wanted to utterly destroy Su Feiyu, Su Feiyu would certainly vanish from this world!

Understanding this, after Su Feiyu was taken away, Su Hongyuan kept pondering how to plea for mercy with Ye Fan, hoping Ye Fan would show some leniency and not treat Su Feiyu too harshly.

Before he could come up with a solution, Su Liuli and Su Jindi sequentially criticized Su Feiyu’s various faults, which made him, already in a bad mood, completely lose his temper.

“Grandfather, Su Feiyu brought this upon himself, no one else is to blame!” Su Liuli was candid and outspoken, liking to say things as they were.

Seeing Su Hongyuan’s anger, she did not hold back and spoke up against him.

Su Jindi couldn’t help himself either, saying, “Grandfather, I know you’re training Su Feiyu to be the Su Family successor, but you can’t be so biased, can you?”

“You think you’re stronger than him?”

It was one thing for Su Liuli to talk back, but for the habitually troublesome Su Jindi to join in, Su Hongyuan lost his temper.

“Grandfather, I’m not as strong as him, I don’t have his brains, I’m not as scheming as him, and I’m not as patient as him.

I’m just a prodigal son!”

As Su Hongyuan scolded him, Su Jindi’s eyes turned red, he clenched his fists, and stared motionlessly at Su Hongyuan, his voice low, “But…

no matter how much of a mess I am, I wouldn’t attack my own family, let alone commit the kind of act that would kill my own family members!”

“You…” Su Hongyuan pointed at Su Jindi, his face turning livid with anger, yet he was speechless in retort.

“Jindi!” Seeing this, Su Yuxin spoke up to stop Su Jindi.

“Sister, I…” Su Jindi’s eyes reddened, looking unwilling to let it go.

Su Yuxin sighed and cut off Su Jindi’s words, “It’s late, and Grandfather is also tired.

Let’s go back.”

“Okay.”

Su Jindi always listened to Su Yuxin, especially after his father died, he was even more compliant to her.

Seeing that Su Yuxin didn’t want to delve into tonight’s issues, although he felt angry, thinking about how Su Feiyu had already been taken away by the police, he nodded.

Su Liuli still wanted to say something, but seeing Su Yuxin pulling Su Jindi away, she swallowed back her words.

She knew Su Yuxin too well.

Although Su Yuxin was nicknamed ‘Iron Lady’ and ‘Cold-faced President,’ she was strong on the outside but soft on the inside, at heart a kind person.

Even though Su Feiyu had gone too far, he had received his punishment.

With Su Yuxin’s kind nature, naturally, she would not continue to pursue the matter, thereby embarrassing Su Hongyuan.

“Divine Doctor, may I have a few words with you?”

Seeing Su Yuxin suggesting they leave, Su Hongyuan hesitated for a moment, then turned his gaze to Ye Fan.

As soon as Su Hongyuan spoke, Ye Fan guessed the intention behind his words.

He was about to refuse, but seeing Su Yuxin looking at him hesitantly, and recalling Su Jindi’s confessions at the CC bar and just earlier, he changed his mind and stopped in his tracks.

“Sure.”

Ye Fan first nodded at Su Hongyuan, then turned to Su Yuxin and said, “Lady Su, I will treat you tonight.

Please wait a moment after you get back.”

“Mm.”

Su Yuxin nodded and left with Su Liuli and Su Jindi.

“Doctor Ye, I am truly sorry for what happened tonight.”

After Su Yuxin and the other two had left, Su Hongyuan weighed his words and said, “I apologize on his behalf and hope that you, being a great man, will not stoop to his level.”

As his words ended, Su Hongyuan stood up and bowed deeply to Ye Fan.

Perhaps because he guessed what Su Hongyuan was hinting at, Ye Fan did not speak to stop him as he witnessed all this.

Clang!

Could it be…

Doctor Ye intends to utterly crush him?

Seeing that Ye Fan was unmoved, Su Hongyuan’s heart skipped a beat, and he looked at Ye Fan full of worry.

Seeing this, Ye Fan decided to get straight to the point: “Mr.

Su, I know what you are asking, you want me to spare Su Feiyu, right?”

“I…

sigh…”

Su Hongyuan let out an embarrassed sigh and said, “Doctor Ye, that wretch deliberately planned to harm you, I dare not ask you to spare him, only…

only hope that you will allow him to receive the punishment he deserves and leave him a way out.”

“I’m not going to stoop so low as to entangle myself with that sort of trash to the end,” Ye Fan said with a scornful laugh.

“If I wanted to deal with him, I wouldn’t have waited until just now, but would have done something back at the CC bar.”

“Uh…” Su Hongyuan was taken aback, seemingly not understanding Ye Fan’s words.

“At the entrance of the CC bar, I already knew he was behind the schemes,” Ye Fan revealed.

“I didn’t make a move against him not because I didn’t dare or to give you face—our relationship hasn’t reached that level,” Ye Fan unveiled the truth.

Faced with the pride that naturally emanated from Ye Fan’s bones, Su Hongyuan, though feeling embarrassed, didn’t dare to say anything, because…

he knew that given the power Ye Fan had shown that evening, he truly didn’t need to give face to the Su Family Patriarch.

“You must be curious why I didn’t act back then,” Ye Fan said, seeing that Su Hongyuan remained silent.

Su Hongyuan nodded apprehensively.

He was well aware that if Ye Fan had acted then, Su Feiyu might have ended up a complete wreck like Gou Wei.

“It’s because Su Jindi poured out his heart to me at the CC bar.

He had once thought about trying to surpass Su Feiyu, so that you would value him and give him the chance to compete with Su Feiyu for the position of the Su Family successor.

But after trying for a while, he felt he couldn’t surpass Su Feiyu.”

Ye Fan spoke earnestly, “Tonight, when the incident happened, Su Feiyu also realized I saw through the trickery, so he was very scared and even begged Su Jindi for mercy, hoping I would spare him.

I wanted to show Su Jindi that the Su Feiyu he thought he couldn’t surpass isn’t strong at all, but rather, just garbage!”

Su Hongyuan’s expression turned ugly, not knowing how to respond.

“I know you’re pleading on his behalf because you still consider Su Feiyu as the successor, in your eyes, he is capable, uses his brain, and understands how to endure and act,”

Ye Fan said, and then his tone shifted sharply, his voice suddenly rising, “But in my eyes, he is nothing but trash without breadth or magnanimity, only capable of some petty cleverness, that’s all!”

The father knows his son best.

Although Su Hongyuan was Su Feiyu’s grandfather, he was very familiar with him and knew that Su Feiyu’s current abilities were far from remarkable.

“Divine Doctor Ye, I understand all that you’ve said.”

After a pause, Su Hongyuan sighed and said, “But I am out of options—with the third generation of the Su Family having two sons and two daughters, I can’t pass the position of Family Head to a girl, and although Su Feiyu’s abilities are not sufficient, he is still stronger than Su Jindi.”

“In my view, one should be a person first before taking on tasks.

If a person can’t even be a decent human being, how can they do anything well no matter how capable they seem?”

Ye Fan said with a derisive smile, “Su Jindi may not do as well as Su Feiyu when it comes to tasks, but at least he knows how to be a proper human being and…

he even went as far as to gather money to save his sister, venturing into deep mountains and forests to seek treatment—though the person he found was a fraud, it doesn’t negate all he did to try to save his loved one!”

Su Hongyuan fell silent once more, but in his silence, his gaze flickered.

Clearly…

he sensed an underlying meaning in Ye Fan’s words.

“Since Divine Doctor Ye holds Little Sun Jindi in such high regard, I’m willing to give him a chance.”

Su Hongyuan spoke once again, his tone filled with deep anticipation, “I believe that with Divine Doctor Ye’s guidance, Jindi will surely grow into a qualified successor.”

“Opportunities are fought for by oneself, not given by others,”

Ye Fan shook his head and strode away.

Su Hongyuan stood rooted to the spot.
