"What happened when he was fourteen?"
"When he was fourteen, he ventured into futures trading." Lu Shifeng clearly had researched Su Jinnian’s history thoroughly, and now explained to her systematically, "Initially, he just invested a small amount of money to test the waters, not realizing that a careless move could cause the dark entity to liquidate his holdings. The entity planned and conspired to harvest and liquidate accounts, targeting no one specific. Yet, they had the misfortune of provoking Su Jinnian. Su Jinnian was furious, imdiately mobilized funds to fight back. At the ti, he didn’t have much money—just a drop in the ocean compared with the colossal dark entity. But he managed to cycle through the futures market several tis, rapidly multiplying his funds dozens of tis within a short period. Adding the power of leverage, he launched a surprise attack against the dark entity, liquidating them using the sa thod.
"Overnight, cries of despair filled the air. The entity’s funds were not only robbed clean but it also owed enormous debts. Several bigwigs involved in this matter even jumped off buildings, shocking Wall Street.
"And your brother, he beca famous in one battle, acquiring a nickna—Assassin.
"He truly kills rcilessly, like a cold-blooded animal, never caring whether his opponents would face ruin. This was proven in many subsequent financial crises; even considerable global financial turmoil was caused by him. Wherever he goes, there will be stormy change, leaving no chance of survival."
Lu Shifeng’s voice was very calm.
But Su Xingyu was shaken to the core upon hearing it. She realized why she always felt so uneasy—her brother was indeed a dangerous figure! She rembered the black card her brother gave her, the string of zeros on the card might be stained with a string of human lives. Capital is ruthless; she couldn’t bla her brother for anything, yet such a brother truly made her uneasy.
She asked Lu Shifeng, "Why did he return to the country this ti?"
Lu Shifeng looked at her, "I don’t know."
This was what was keeping everyone tense: the legendary Wall Street assassin had co to the country. Would he engage in the dostic capital market? For many world top experts, the dostic capital market isn’t quite interesting, as protected by authorities, the fluctuations aren’t big, lacking much thrill and excitent.
Figures like Su Jinnian were supposed to disdain it.
But surprisingly, he ca.
He ca suddenly and with great fanfare.
Days ago, one afternoon, when he appeared on the terrace of a top club wearing a thin white shirt for afternoon tea, the entire dostic business circles were startled. Every force—whether big companies, underground organizations, various foundations—began to check their assets, protect their accounts, and closely watch the assassin’s movents.
But the assassin himself? He just visited the club every afternoon to drink coffee, played snooker alone, seemingly just coming to the country for leisure.
However, nobody would be careless about him.
His reputation was too loud, even figures like Lu Shifeng were cautious, imdiately sending people to investigate his details only to find he bore a striking resemblance to Su Xingyu. Further investigation showed he was actually Su Xingyu’s twin brother. After all these years, not even Lu Shifeng had heard her ntion having a twin brother!
"You didn’t know about Su Jinnian before?" he asked his young wife.
Su Xingyu shook her head, "So things happened, I forgot him. But now I rember he’s my brother, indeed. Jinnian..."
Her expression was sowhat wistful.
Lu Shifeng asked, "How is he?"
Su Xingyu paused before speaking, "He wasn’t like this as a child." She still rembered Su Jinnian as a small child, cute and clingy like Han, though he was a frail boy always lying in a hospital bed, but his smile was always bright whenever she saw him.
How could such a pure, innocent child beco the fearso assassin he was now?
"He must have endured a lot." she said.
Lu Shifeng said, "He will also make many suffer. Xingyu, why did he co looking for you?"
Su Xingyu glanced at Lu Shifeng, rembering Su Jinnian’s words to her, telling her that Lu Shifeng was not a good person, asking her to leave him...
"He gave so money," Su Xingyu told Lu Shifeng, "Probably because he hasn’t seen for so many years, he missed and ca back to reunite."
She didn’t tell him more, because even her own heart was confused, unsure of what to do.
He pondered for a mont, "You were the one who lost your mory back then. Even though you don’t rember having a twin brother nad Su Jinnian, presumably he always rembered you. From childhood to adulthood, all these years, he never contacted you, yet now suddenly appears in front of you cannot simply be because he missed you."
She felt slightly hurt but couldn’t deny Lu Shifeng made a valid point.
Lu Shifeng continued, "His return this ti isn’t likely for financial matters either; capital warfare emphasizes speed, the faster and more swift the better. Yet he leisurely makes his presence known, allowing everyone to be on guard—this really doesn’t match his usual style."
Su Xingyu did not understand these things; eting her brother today left her engulfed in great shock, joy, and unease, never considering why he returned to the country. With Lu Shifeng’s ntion, she realized his return was indeed suspicious; that pale thin young man couldn’t have possibly returned just to break her and Lu Shifeng apart?
"I’ll ask him next ti I see him." she said.
Lu Shifeng glanced at her, "He may not be truthful with you." Though they were twins, not eting for so many years ant the heart was inscrutable, too much was uncertain.
However, she said, "Regardless of his honesty, he is my brother. Lu Shifeng, I plan to invite him to our ho as a guest, to et Han and Jue." eting Han seed appropriate; the young man was Han’s uncle. But for so reason, she also wanted him to et Jue; she always felt there was a resemblance between Su Jinnian and Jue, perhaps a similar solitary nature.
Also making people feel concern.
Lu Shifeng frowned slightly, reasserting, "He is a dangerous character."
Su Xingyu said, "I know, but he is my brother." Over the years, he struggled alone in the United States, which wasn’t easy, right? Outsiders only saw him stir chaos, creating one terrifying legend after another, but his face was so pale, his body so thin, and those childhood illnesses—had they ever healed?
She worried about him very much.
