Chapter: 2693

When she returned to her room, Du Haiqing also came out of his room, seeing that her expression was somewhat worried-looking, he quickly asked: "Zhiyu, how are you?"

Su Zhiyu helplessly said: "There are four female bodyguards at the entrance. They won't let me go out, saying that it's according to your benefactor's instructions, and they want us to stay here well, since there are many people outside looking for our whereabouts, in order to ensure our safety."

"I originally wanted to report a peaceful situation to Grandpa, but they won't allow it."

Du Haiqing nodded slightly and said seriously: "This is also understandable. Your grandfather wants my life, and someone else wants your life too. The situation behind this is probably much more complex than we can imagine. If the outside world knows that the two of us are still alive, it will probably bring a lot of danger, and also cause trouble for your benefactor."

Su Zhiyu asked, "Mom, the female bodyguards at the entrance say that Benefactor is their family's young master. What do you think? Is it someone from a powerful clan in Jinling?"

Jinling?" Du Haiqing frowned and thought for a moment before saying seriously, "To be honest, I'm not very familiar with the situation in Jinling, but I know there's a Song family with assets of around trillion. This Benefactor is extraordinary, definitely not something that can be cultivated by a clan like Song."

"In other words, if the Song family could cultivate someone as talented as this, then the Song family's strength would not be what it is today."

Su Zhiyu asked again, "Could it be some obscure clan?"

Obscure clan?" Du Haiqing thought for a moment before saying seriously, "I'm not sure about that. But to put it bluntly, in Jinling, which has a moderate economic status domestically, it's hard to find a powerful obscure clan with deep enough roots to hide their strength."

Su Zhiyu nodded in agreement, mumbling to herself, "That makes sense..."

After finishing her thought, she suddenly had an idea and said, "Mom, do you think Benefactor might be the young master of some big family in Yanjing or another major city?"

Major city?" Du Haiqing fell silent for a moment before saying, "In China, there are only a few top-tier clans with exceptional strength. From what I know, these families don't have any extremely talented young masters, just like the Su family, including your brother and other young men from our clan. There's no one who can be considered an expert among them. As for the other clans... it's even less possible."

Su Zhiyu took a deep breath.

She also thought Mom's words were very reasonable.

These top-tier clan heirs, although they may seem extremely mysterious to outsiders, are actually well aware of other clans' heirs among their own kind.

These top-tier clan heirs, although each is a so-called high-achieving returnee from studying abroad, Su Zhiyu was clear that most of them were just flashy and superficial.

Said in a nice way, it's like a beautiful embroidered pillow.

Said in an unpleasant way, it's like a turd with a shiny surface.

Don't look at these big shots; each one is just a mouthful of smooth English, knowing the global situation and able to discuss global economics, point out directions, and make grandiose statements. But when it comes to actually putting it into practice, they might suddenly be like Zhao Kuangzi, grasping at thin air.

There was also a very famous heir who claimed to be a business genius, earning tens of billions in just a few years through his own efforts. However, one moment later, news emerged that the company had gone bankrupt and he was buried under debt.

Tens of billions in assets transformed into tens of billions in debt overnight.

And people like this are absolutely not exceptions in high society.

So, Su Zhiyu found it hard to believe that her patron, the one who was like a divine being sent from heaven, with unparalleled abilities, could actually be the son of some big family.

Thinking about this, she couldn't help but fall into deep contemplation again. After a long while, she spoke bitterly: "Mom, our patron isn't someone from a big family, yet he's called young master. What is his background, then?"

Du Haiqing smiled and said seriously: "The patron you're looking for has divine powers, abilities that are beyond my imagination, so his identity must not be something we can easily guess." JrNovels.com
