The City’s Strongest Son-in-law

172: Chapter 172: Could it be that you don’t have much time left?

Even without Gu Changsheng’s personal recognition, being able to cooperate with the Gu Family can be seen as helping the Tang Family.

Therefore, being able to collaborate with the Gu Family is proof of the value the Tang Family brings, wouldn’t you say?

“Then it all depends on the Old Master.

If you ever need my help in the future, I won’t refuse,” Su Changfeng said.

Gu Changsheng laughed, as he had been waiting for Su Changfeng to say this; otherwise, his help this time would have been in vain.

“Alright, the old man remembers,” Gu Changsheng said.

Su Changfeng used the excuse of not having time to avoid going shopping with Gu Qing’er this time, but Gu Qing’er said he must finish it within three days.

Su Changfeng reluctantly agreed.

After Su Changfeng left, Gu Qing’er lost her excitement, as if all her energy had been drained.

She collapsed weakly onto the sofa, feeling listless.

“If you really have nothing to do, then go visit the Tang Family,” Gu Changsheng said with a smile.

“Visit the Tang Family for what?

Humph, I’m not going,” Gu Qing’er had been busy with activities like shopping and partying with her girlfriends.

Usually, she enjoyed herself a lot, especially when she had no classes.

But ever since she witnessed Su Changfeng’s skills and discovered the Piano Prince was indeed Su Changfeng, she lost interest in her previous activities.

“Go to the Tang Family and tell them that aiding them was purely because of Su Changfeng.

Let them see how impressive Su Changfeng is,” Gu Changsheng said.

“No way,” Gu Qing’er blurted out.

“If they find out how impressive Su Changfeng is, the Tang Family will definitely cozy up to him, and my chances will become even slimmer.

Grandpa, are you out of your mind?

Why would you ask me to do that?”

“Silly Qing’er, let them know Su Changfeng is impressive because of our Gu Family,” Gu Changsheng said with a smile.

Gu Qing’er believed that Gu Changsheng was definitely planning something, and she curiously asked, “What are you up to, Grandpa?”

“I can’t tell you now; otherwise, you’ll definitely lose your cool.

Just listen to Grandpa for now.

Do you think I would harm you?” Gu Changsheng said.

Gu Qing’er instinctively nodded.

She was certain her grandpa would never harm her.

Since she was bored at home, she decided to follow her grandpa’s advice.

“Alright, I’m going to the Tang Family, Grandpa.”

Gu Qing’er drove herself to the Tang Family Mansion.

At the Tang Family Mansion, the old lady was in the living room discussing with her assistant how to groom Tang Xiangdong.

She could see that Tang Xiangdong was eager to become the chairman, and she planned to pass the position to him.

However, for now, Tang Xiangdong didn’t have enough influence to fully support the Tang Family.

When she learned of Gu Qing’er’s arrival, the old lady stood up with a puzzled expression.

Why would the Gu Family’s young miss suddenly come here?

Could she be here to cause trouble for Tang Xiangdong?

Though she was displeased, Gu Qing’er was the Gu Family’s daughter, so the old lady had to keep her displeasure to herself.

“Miss Gu, what brings you to the Tang Family today?” the old lady said with a smile.

“A brazen wind brought me here, and it’s quite strong,” Gu Qing’er replied.

It was clear that Gu Qing’er was mocking someone, but the old lady didn’t understand what brazen wind she was referring to.

“Miss Gu, I’m not quite sure what you mean,” the old lady said.

“This morning, Su Changfeng went to see my grandpa.

He wanted my grandpa to recognize your Tang Family.

Don’t you think that’s shameful?

If it weren’t for you, Su Changfeng wouldn’t have gone to see grandpa.

A small family like the Tang Family expecting my grandpa’s recognition is just wishful thinking,” Gu Qing’er said with contempt, looking at the old lady.

The old lady’s expression darkened.

Had Su Changfeng been to the Gu Family already?

Was Gu Qing’er here on his behalf to mock her?

Su Changfeng, that useless guy, dared to send a young girl to deal with her.

“Just so you know, Su Changfeng has no idea I’m at the Tang Family.

I’m here to tell you that no matter how much Su Changfeng pleads with grandpa, the Tang Family won’t gain recognition because…

your family isn’t up to par.

Even with the West District project, it’s impossible for grandpa to acknowledge you,” Gu Qing’er said.

In all of Hai City, the Gu Family’s businesses were extensive, covering almost every industry.

The old lady knew how difficult it was to gain Gu Changsheng’s recognition.

But it was because of Su Canghai’s relationship with Gu Changsheng that Su Canghai had this chance to try.

From the current situation, it seemed that Su Cang, that useless person, didn’t hold a special place in Gu Changsheng’s eyes, and now he even let Gu Qing’er come to insult her.

If she had known it would turn out like this, she wouldn’t have sought help from Su Changfeng, that useless person.

He was no help at all!

“Miss Gu, Old Master Gu hasn’t given his approval, so why are you here?

Are you just here to insult this old woman?” the old lady said angrily.

“I just mentioned it; the brazen wind is too strong and blew me over here.

Do you think I wanted to come?” Gu Qing’er said innocently.

The old lady was so angry she almost spat blood, gritting her teeth, she said, “Miss Gu, if there’s nothing else, please leave.

I’m old and need to rest.”

“Already need to rest after a short while?

Does this mean you don’t have much time left?” Gu Qing’er laughed.

“You…” The old lady trembled with anger, pointing at Gu Qing’er with a shaking hand.

Gu Qing’er wasn’t a bad person; all the things she said were memorized from watching TV.

Seeing the old lady so furious, Gu Qing’er felt a bit soft-hearted and said, “Old lady, I came here to tell you that Su Changfeng’s prowess is thanks to the Gu Family, and it has nothing to do with him personally.

I’ve known him for over three years, and he’s just a useless person; I don’t need you to tell me that,” the old lady said through clenched teeth.

“Well, then, even though grandpa hasn’t acknowledged the Tang Family, in light of Su Changfeng, he still gave the Tang Family an opportunity.

He promised that in one of the Gu Family’s industries, he’ll find a chance to collaborate with the Tang Family.

You should consider yourself fortunate,” Gu Qing’er said.

The old lady’s anger quickly subsided with these words.

The Gu Family was really going to collaborate with the Tang Family?

Though Gu Changsheng didn’t personally recognize them, it was still an invaluable opportunity for the Tang Family.

In Hai City, families that could collaborate with the Gu Family were almost all top-notch.

This meant that with this collaboration, the Tang Family could climb into the ranks of Hai City’s top families, especially with the West District project, making it almost a certainty.

“Are you sure you didn’t make a mistake, Miss Gu?” the old lady asked excitedly.
