Chapter 245: Chapter 245: Return

Zhao Tong said, "And even if we take ten thousand steps back, even if he really was a terrible person before, and did all those things... Well, now he’s got his just desserts."

Su Zhe took a deep breath in, let it out slowly, and then nodded. "Alright, no matter what, my family has wronged you two."

Zhao Tong laughed, "Don’t say that, brother. But there is one thing I really have to thank Su Yukan for."

"Hmm?"

"If he hadn’t been so awful, how would I have come to realize just how great my real parents are?"

Zhao Tong’s words were indeed true. Compared to Zhao Ying, his parents were more forgiving. Although they also went through a lot of pain and endured a long period of agony, they remained more optimistic, firmly believing they would find their son.

Once they finally found him, it was almost like they would give him anything he wanted.

Su Lu could relate to this as well. Su Yukan’s existence made her own parents seem even better in comparison.

These words made Su Zhe laugh a little, lightening his mood somewhat.

But he still wasn’t feeling great. From the look of him when he left Su Lu’s place, he seemed a bit better.

After he left, Su Lu turned and asked, "What do you think about brother’s mood?"

"It seems okay? But it’s probably an act, just to put us at ease. After all, with Su Yukan causing so much trouble, who could feel good? I feel bad just hearing about it," Zhao Tong said with a frown, looking at Su Lu. "Do you think... Su Yukan could be playing us?"

"I doubt it..." Su Lu said, "What would be the point of pretending with us? We haven’t had any contact."

"Who knows, maybe he’s after money again," Zhao Tong said with a cold laugh. "It’s not like he hasn’t done his share of selling his kids."

"Let’s just go and see for ourselves. Weren’t you saying that you haven’t visited Ying Xi in Feng City?" Su Lu said.

Zhao Tong nodded.
