The City’s Strongest Son-in-law
Chapter 502 - 503: Chen Xueqi’s Sarcasm
CHAPTER 502: CHAPTER 503: CHEN XUEQI’S SARCASM
"The Ye Group, wielding massive capital, is advancing into the Jiang City market, and now they want to use Chen Chen’s skills to control Jiang City’s gray areas. Are you worried that I might lose this time?" Su Changfeng asked.
Dao Jiu shook his head: "No, it’s not Chen Chen that I’m most worried about. I’m concerned about the possibility of more individuals as powerful as Chen Chen appearing in the future."
Su Changfeng slowly exhaled. Chen Chen had already been a significant challenge. If several more people like Chen Chen emerged, the pressure on Su Changfeng would be unimaginable.
And given the situation of the M Country Su Family, there were surely more individuals than just Chen Chen.
Watching Su Changfeng’s intense gaze on the surveillance screen, Dao Jiu realized that Su Changfeng wanted to find the expert who scared off Chen Chen. If they could recruit that person, they’d have a bit of leverage.
"Brother Changfeng, you should go home and rest. I’ll try my best to uncover the background of that expert," Dao Jiu said.
"There’s no need for that," Su Changfeng replied. "If that person wants to show themselves, I’ll definitely see them again. If they don’t want to help us, investigating them will only provoke them, which could be problematic if they decide to act against us."
Leaving the Underground Boxing Ring, the sky was filled with stars, just like that night at Yunding Restaurant, when she said it was especially beautiful.
No matter how many challenges and obstacles lie ahead, I’ll overcome them all to be with you as soon as possible.
When Su Changfeng returned to the apartment complex and reached the 16th floor in the elevator, Chen Xueqi was standing outside the door.
"Forgot your keys?" Su Changfeng asked Chen Xueqi.
"People like you must have been a mouse in a previous life, just as cowardly now as you were then," Chen Xueqi said coldly to Su Changfeng.
Su Changfeng chuckled, guessing that Chen Xueqi was referring to the Charming incident. But it wasn’t that Su Changfeng was being cowardly; he had simply hurriedly left because something had just happened at the Boxing Arena.
Even if Su Changfeng hadn’t left, he still wouldn’t have interfered in Chen Xueqi’s matters.
"I advise you not to provoke those people again; you can’t imagine the trouble they can cause you," Su Changfeng reminded her.
"I don’t need your reminders. My friends took care of that issue, unlike you, who are so cowardly," Chen Xueqi retorted.
Su Changfeng stroked his chin and asked, "Chen Xueqi, are you waiting specifically to say all this to me?"
Chen Xueqi said nothing, just opened the door and went inside.
This left Su Changfeng feeling a bit helpless, as if his image in Chen Xueqi’s mind was truly unfavorable. It was so late, yet Chen Xueqi deliberately waited just to mock him.
But this woman is indeed interesting; she wants to be a cold, high-up goddess, but also desires all men to follow her.
After returning home, Su Changfeng washed up and lay on the bed. On the bedside table was their wedding photo with Tang Qiulu. Before sleeping, Su Changfeng found himself staring at the photo, as it eased his longing for Tang Qiulu.
Even though they are in the same place now, Su Changfeng feels as if they’re at the Earth’s poles.
Holding the photo, Su Changfeng kept wiping the part where Tang Qiulu was, afraid there might be dust on it.
"I remember when Tang Xiangdong secretly beat me up, you secretly gave him laxatives, and he couldn’t get out of the bathroom."
"I remember when Shen Siwen called me a coward, you secretly put a fake cockroach in her bag."
"I remember when Mom wouldn’t let me eat at the table, you’d hide a few pieces of meat at the bottom of the bowl and cover them with rice so they wouldn’t find out."
Looking back, Su Changfeng smiled foolishly, but tears sparkled in his eyes.
Because of these things, it was decided that Su Changfeng would always protect Tang Qiulu.
Meanwhile, at the Mountain Villa’s midsection, the two seemed to have telepathy.
Tang Qiulu also held one of their wedding photos, gazing at the image of Su Changfeng, speaking to herself.
In the lonely depths of the night, longing for Tang Qiulu surged like a tide.
Though she keeps herself busy with work during the day to avoid thoughts of Su Changfeng, at night, it’s unavoidable.
Looking at the other side of the bed, where Su Changfeng should be lying, her husband.
"Husband, I really miss you," Tang Qiulu said, tears streaming down her face like broken pearls.
The next morning, after her morning jog, Tang Qiulu planned to go to the company. Sun Mei told her, "Come home early today; we’re having guests."
Tang Qiulu frowned, wondering if the Sun family had the nerve to visit Jiang City again?
"Do Grandpa and that group want to come?" Tang Qiulu mumbled.
"It’s nothing to do with them. It’s Mom’s friend, so just be sure to leave work early," Sun Mei said.
Tang Qiulu was a bit surprised. It was rare for Sun Mei to invite friends over, perhaps wanting to show off their new villa to those friends?
Given Sun Mei’s personality, it wasn’t that surprising, so Tang Qiulu didn’t think further about it.
After Tang Qiulu left, Shen Zhenhua came downstairs and asked Sun Mei, "Is it okay to do this without informing Qiulu in advance? Aren’t you worried about her getting angry?"
"I’m doing this for Qiulu. Why would she be mad at me? You should take down the wedding photos of her and that coward immediately; if they can be destroyed, do it right away. I don’t want the guests to see them. I’ve selected someone carefully for Qiulu, and their company isn’t any lesser than the Shen Family. If they could be together, it would be perfect," Sun Mei said, indicating her plan to introduce another man to Tang Qiulu!
Shen Zhenhua sighed. Sun Mei always did things her way without consulting Tang Qiulu. Who knows how Qiulu will react when she comes back?
Looking at those wedding photos, which Tang Qiulu and Su Changfeng had hung together, and especially since they were taken on Heaven Island, destroying them would definitely make Tang Qiulu furious.
"Why are you still standing there? Start taking them down now. If you’re afraid of Qiulu blaming you, just say I instructed you," Sun Mei urged.
"Alright, alright, whatever you say." Shen Zhenhua replied, full of helplessness.
Returning from taking out the trash, Liu Lili saw Shen Zhenhua trying to take down the wedding photos of Tang Qiulu and Su Changfeng, and rushed to his side.
