The City’s Strongest Son-in-law

5: Chapter 5: The Su Family’s Trial 5: Chapter 5: The Su Family’s Trial “You only remember me, the disowned son, at times like this.”

With a faint smile, Su Changfeng interrupted the woman’s words, “Because you discovered that the disowned son still has some use.”

“Changfeng, how can you say such a thing?”

Ji Hong shook her head, “These three years have been hard for you, I know.

But it was the Old Madam’s order to make you leave, no one could do anything about it.

You can’t…”

“Can’t blame you, right?”

Su Changfeng found it somewhat amusing, “You only know that I’ve suffered for three years, but you never consider how I’ve lived these past twenty-plus years.”

Seeing that Ji Hong was unmoved, Su Canghai’s face grew even more somber.

“No matter how well I do, how hard I work, it’s still no match for my elder brother moving his lips.”

“I can live on a mouthful of food, but no one cares what I think.”

“If the Su Family hadn’t met with an accident, would you have remembered that there was still a Su Changfeng in this world?”

“From beginning to end, I’ve always been an outsider to the Su Family.”

“Stop talking!”

Ji Hong was at a loss for words, her voice choking, “It’s my fault…”

“What’s the point of who’s right or wrong, even the oldest wounds have scars.”

Su Changfeng’s gaze was distant, “I came here today because she told me she doesn’t want to be bullied anymore in the future.

So tell me, why are you looking for me?”

Gathering herself, Ji Hong softly said, “The thing is, the Su Family wants to open a company in Hai City, and you will be the general manager.”

“Oh?

This must be the Old Madam’s idea, right?”

With a cold laugh, Su Changfeng immediately understood the Su Family’s true intention, “At this critical moment, she’s still thinking of testing my abilities?”

Ji Hong said nothing, which was a tacit confirmation of Su Changfeng’s guess.

“Fine, I’ll show her then.”

Getting up from the booth, Su Changfeng said lightly, “I want her to know just how strong the disowned son of the Su Family can be.”

Watching Su Changfeng leave, Ji Hong took a cell phone out of her handbag and dialed a series of numbers.

“Mom, the matter is resolved.”

“Heh, I want to see just how capable he is.” An elderly voice on the other end of the phone snorted coldly,

“I hope he doesn’t disgrace the Su Family.

Otherwise, even if I have to donate all the family assets to charity, I won’t give this kid a penny!”

Ji Hong didn’t respond, just let out a slight sigh.

In fact, she didn’t have high expectations for Su Changfeng.

If it weren’t for the fact that her eldest son is in prison, she might never have come to Hai City to see her younger son in her lifetime.

Under the arrangement of the Su Family, soon, a piece of news like a nuclear bomb exploded on the front page of Hai City Business News — the Beijing Su Family is about to enter the Hai City market, seeking cooperation partners.

As the leading real estate giant in China, the Hai City business community might be reshuffled because of this!

Following this, the Su Family’s Hai City branch, Waterfront Real Estate, officially opened for business, and with lightning speed, acquired a large area of wasteland in the West District, boasting to build Hai City’s second commercial center.

No one would doubt the Su Family’s strength.

Once the news was out, the headquarters of Waterfront Real Estate was immediately flooded with visitors.

After all, this long-term business partnership was too tempting, and everyone wanted to seize the opportunity and eat from the Su Family’s pie.

As a building materials operator, the Tang Family was certainly eager to get a piece.

At the same time, some speculated whether this Beijing Su Family was the mysterious person who sent luxurious betrothal gifts at the family banquet a few days ago?

However, before this speculation could gain traction, it was denied by all.

Not for any other reason, just because all those from the Tang Family who tried to do business with Waterfront Real Estate came back empty-handed, without even getting past the door.

Tang Group, Central Meeting Room.

“The situation is very severe now, do you understand?”

Old Madam Tang sat at the head of the table, looking at the faces of the worried Tang Family descendants, and said solemnly, “We must secure cooperation with Waterfront Real Estate.

This is a golden opportunity for our Tang Family to ascend to the top tier of noble families in Hai City.

If we miss it, it’s gone!”

“Mom, it’s not working, they just won’t meet our people!”

“Yes, grandma, Waterfront Real Estate has a big attitude.”

“How could the Beijing Su Family not have a big attitude?

So many people are lining up to throw themselves at them!”

“I think the mysterious person who sent gifts to our family, has nothing to do with the Su Family…”

Everyone shook their heads and sighed, which made Old Madam Tang even angrier, “Shut up, all of you!

Look at your despondent faces!

Get energized and take turns waiting at the entrance of Waterfront Real Estate!

I just can’t believe that this partnership isn’t destined for us!”

Everyone looked at each other, no one uttered a word.

Taking turns to wait at someone’s doorstep, isn’t that humiliating enough?

But who would dare to disobey the Old Madam’s orders?

“Grandma, I think we should let Qiulu go.”

Tang Xiangdong was having a headache, when his peripheral vision caught sight of Tang Qiulu, who had her head down in the corner, and he immediately said, “She doesn’t have much to do recently, and we all have ongoing work we can’t leave, so it’s just right to let Qiulu have some experience.”

This suggestion was instantly met with the approval of everyone.

Of course, what they said aloud was just for show, in their hearts, without exception, they were all mocking Tang Qiulu for her servile fate.

But Tang Qiulu ignored everyone, she was staring at the screen of her phone deep in thought.

On it was a text message from Su Changfeng, with only eight short words: Recommend yourself for a meeting with Waterfront Real Estate.

What did he mean?

Seeing that everyone before her had failed, could she really secure the cooperation?

Tang Qiulu couldn’t figure it out.

“Qiulu, what do you think?”

Old Madam Tang, going with the flow, called Tang Qiulu’s name.

“Grandma, I’ll go.”

Tang Qiulu replied.

She understood that she had no choice.

“So straightforward in agreement, don’t slack off behind our backs.”

Seeing his goal achieved, Tang Xiangdong sneered, “Otherwise, if our Tang Family misses the opportunity, you won’t bear the responsibility!”

“I think we should send two assistants with her?

To make sure she takes it seriously.”

“Makes sense, after all, she’s not reliable in handling matters.”

The relatives began to discuss among themselves, not caring at all about the increasingly unpleasant expression on Tang Qiulu’s face.

“Alright then, it’s settled.

Dong Lin, go to the marketing department and pick two people.”

Old Madam Tang looked at Tang Qiulu, “Having someone with you is a good thing, so you don’t overwork yourself.”

Isn’t this to prevent her from being overworked, it’s obvious they’re sending people to watch her!

Tang Qiulu clenched her fists, obviously with Tang Family’s blood running through her veins, sitting in the meeting room just like everyone else, yet she was always treated as an outsider that could be bossed around!

“I will definitely secure the cooperation with Waterfront Real Estate, just you wait and see!”

Thinking of Su Changfeng’s text, Tang Qiulu impulsively blurted out loudly.

As soon as she finished speaking, the meeting room fell silent immediately, and three seconds later, everyone burst into laughter as if they had heard the funniest joke.

“Tang Qiulu, are you alright?

Are you under some stress?”

“I used to think she handled things without principles, turns out she’s not quite right in the head.”

“Brag, go on bragging, with no progress at all on this business, you claim you’ll get it done?”

Initially, Tang Xiangdong was going to join everyone in mocking Tang Qiulu, but suddenly thought of something, a trace of a sneer appeared on his lips.

This is her walking into the trap herself, why not take this opportunity to completely kick Tang Qiulu and her family out of the Tang Family?

It would save trouble when dividing the inheritance in the future, without an extra person in the way!

“Alright, Tang Qiulu, since you’re so confident, how about making a bet with me?”
