The City’s Strongest Son-in-law

Chapter 253: Chapter 253: The Miserable Tang Xiangdong

“Alright, alright, I will definitely keep my mouth shut,” Chen Wei said.

“Cheng Shi, I need you to handle the vendor issue. No matter what you do, I want you to manage to get the subsidiaries under Weishui as soon as possible,” Su Changfeng said.

Cheng Shi nodded and replied, “I guarantee it will be sorted within three days.”

However, there’s one thing Cheng Shi doesn’t understand. After acquiring these vendors, Weishui won’t need to cooperate with the Tang Family. Then what should the Tang Family do in the future?

Cheng Shi knows Su Changfeng is doing this for Tang Qiulu, but if he carries out this plan, there will be no excuse to give the Tang Family any benefits.

Su Changfeng certainly has his own plans in doing this. The West District project will no longer involve the Tang Family, and Tang Qiulu will have to find other ways to expand the Tang Family’s business, relying on these ventures to overcome the crisis.

Of course, it’s not that Su Changfeng intentionally wants to create trouble for Tang Qiulu; it’s because he understands her nature. If everything goes too smoothly, she might not be able to accept it.

Furthermore, after Cheng Shi brings the vendors under Weishui, continuing cooperation with the Tang Family would leave a loophole that Su Changfeng couldn’t cover, and Tang Qiulu isn’t a fool. She can’t always rely on the illusion of classmates’ camaraderie to gloss over it.

After giving these instructions, Su Changfeng walked out of the company and ran into Tang Xiangdong at the entrance.

Tang Xiangdong came to Weishui hoping Cheng Shi would give the Tang Family another chance, but didn’t expect to see Su Changfeng here.

In his eyes, Tang Qiulu must be the one causing trouble behind the scenes. Since he couldn’t see Tang Qiulu, venting his anger on Su Changfeng wasn’t a bad alternative.

Furiously, Tang Xiangdong rushed up to Su Changfeng, grabbed his collar, and shouted vehemently, “Su Changfeng, where’s that bitch Tang Qiulu? Make her come out here! She’s also part of the Tang Family, so why is she sabotaging us?”

Su Changfeng replied expressionlessly, “Sabotaging the Tang Family? She already quit, so the affairs of the company have nothing to do with her.”

“If it wasn’t for her, Weishui Real Estate and our Tang Family wouldn’t have stopped cooperating. Su Changfeng, don’t you think that bitch Tang Qiulu sweet-talked Cheng Shi? Or have you gotten so used to it that you don’t care?” Tang Xiangdong said mockingly.

Su Changfeng’s expression turned cold as he gripped Tang Xiangdong’s wrist tightly, and said chillingly, “Tang Xiangdong, you’ll end up in a miserable state for speaking without thinking. I suggest you consider your words carefully.”

Tang Xiangdong had already been beaten by Su Changfeng twice and knew he was no match for him. Hearing his words, though deeply dissatisfied, he was equally frightened, and quickly released Su Changfeng, retreating several steps.

“Anyway, you know yourself. Otherwise, why would Cheng Shi let her be in charge of the West District? Don’t you think there’s more to it?” Tang Xiangdong said these words while preparing to flee at any minute, not wanting to be beaten outside Weishui Real Estate’s entrance by Su Changfeng.

But Su Changfeng didn’t seem to be losing his temper as Tang Xiangdong imagined; he was still smiling.

The reason Su Changfeng wasn’t angry was that he knew the situation well, and whether Tang Xiangdong needed proof was entirely unnecessary. Moreover, when Tang Qiulu re-entered the Tang Family as the new chairman of the company, Tang Xiangdong would surely regret saying these things.

“Tang Xiangdong, going from chairman of the Tang Family to just an employee isn’t a great feeling, but I think you’ll absolutely adapt to it. Good luck,” Su Changfeng said these words without bothering about Tang Xiangdong’s behavior and left immediately.

If Su Changfeng had taken issue with these actions, Tang Xiangdong would have long been finished.

Under current circumstances, Tang Xiangdong hasn’t touched Su Changfeng’s bottom line.

Tang Xiangdong moved aside, making way for Su Changfeng, knowing he wasn’t his opponent and could only try to use his words to his advantage.

After Su Changfeng left, Tang Xiangdong tried to enter Weishui to find Cheng Shi but was stopped by security. This was because Cheng Shi had told them not to let Tang Xiangdong into the company if he came.

Helpless, Tang Xiangdong could only wait at Weishui’s entrance.

He waited until quitting time to see Cheng Shi, then ran over quickly.

“Brother Cheng, please give our company one more chance. You can name any conditions, and I will meet them all,” Tang Xiangdong pleaded, looking at Cheng Shi with desperation.

Now the only way for the company to survive is to reclaim the West District project. Only with that project in hand can the bank refrain from pressuring the company.

“Tang Xiangdong, do you think I’m joking with you? Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me, but there’s no third time. You’ve had three chances already. Do you think you’ll get another?” Cheng Shi said coldly.

“Brother Cheng, please help us one more time. If you don’t help me this time, then I’m really finished. If you want Tang Qiulu back at work, I’ll invite her back personally,” Tang Xiangdong said.

Cheng Shi shook his head, saying, “It’s too late to regret now. If you don’t want to go bankrupt, the only way is to sell the company. In my opinion, that’s the best course of action. Continuing cooperation is out of the question.”

Seeing Cheng Shi about to get into his car, Tang Xiangdong blocked his way and said, “Brother Cheng, I beg you to give me a chance. Everything is negotiable. I’ve just become chairman not long ago, and I’m reluctant to sell the company.”

“You brought this upon yourself. With your capabilities, you’re not suited to be chairman—you’re trash,” Cheng Shi said with disdain.

> The company’s security saw Tang Xiangdong blocking Cheng Shi and quickly ran over, each wearing a fierce look as they eyed Tang Xiangdong.

Tang Xiangdong resigned himself to the ridicule, saying, “Brother Cheng, I am indeed trash at the moment. But if you give me a chance, I’ll prove to you that I can grow.”

Cheng Shi laughed, “What you say has nothing to do with me, and you won’t be able to get back on your feet in this lifetime because you’ve offended someone you can’t afford to offend. Not only you, even if Old Madam Tang were still here, she couldn’t afford to offend them either.”

Cheng Shi gestured and the security guards stepped forward, pulling Tang Xiangdong away.

Tang Xiangdong watched in despair as Cheng Shi’s car drove away. Is selling the company really the only solution?

However, since becoming chairman has not been long, Tang Xiangdong felt deeply unwilling.

“Tang Qiulu, you bitch, have you really slept with Cheng Shi? I refuse to believe there’s no other way now!” Tang Xiangdong said viciously, then took out his phone to call Tang Siwen.

“Where are you now? I need to see you,” Tang Xiangdong said.
