The City’s Strongest Son-in-law

Chapter 276: Chapter 276: Qiulu Was Captured in Qingshui Village

“Yes.” Chen Hai immediately took out his phone and called Brother Baldie.

In Bin County, anything related to the gray areas, it’s best to let him handle it.

Brother Baldie was extremely excited to receive a call from Chen Hai and agreed right away.

When doing things for others, Brother Baldie cares about money, but to help Chen Hai, he’d rather forgo it; Chen Hai’s favor is worth more than money.

“Now, take a group and find someone named Sun Wan to scare her a bit, let her stay calm for now.” After hanging up, Brother Baldie instructed his subordinates.

“Brother Baldie, there’s news about Sun Wei. That person is in Qingshui Village,” a subordinate said.

“Then hurry and send someone over. Qingshui Village is practically deserted now; it’s a perfect opportunity for this job.”

Qingshui Village, when Tang Qiulu was younger, she used to spend some days here, almost every summer, the deepest impression being the river next to the village.

Back then, the river was incredibly clear. During childhood, it was common to go catch fish and shrimp.

“Sigh.” Returning to this river now, Tang Qiulu couldn’t help but sigh. The river was murky and emitted a smell; the feelings of childhood had disappeared.

In Sun Mei’s eyes, even though Tang Qiulu is grown up and married now, she’s still just a child. Hearing Tang Qiulu sigh made her smile and say, “The environment these past years is nothing like before, unless you’re planning on catching shrimp in the river now.”

“Mom, so many things change with time flying by. Your relationship with Dad must have changed a lot from the beginning, right?” Tang Qiulu asked.

Sun Mei nodded and said, “Your father is somewhat cowardly. I’ve complained about him for most of my life; now it’s more family affection than love. But that’s understandable — after marriage, emotions undergo qualitative changes. Even as love evolves into affection, one thing remains unchanged — the inability to let go.”

“Is it impossible to keep it going?” Tang Qiulu frowned.

Sun Mei sighed helplessly. Speaking for herself, there’s no way to restore the initial feelings, and maintaining it, she’s never considered it, since now resentment outweighs affection.

“Maybe Su Changfeng can sustain it, seeing as you’ve accepted him by now,” Sun Mei said.

Tang Qiulu suddenly blushed and said, “Mom, what are you talking about? I haven’t accepted him.”

“If you hadn’t accepted him, would you kiss him? Don’t think I don’t know. Su Changfeng has already told me,” Sun Mei said with a smile.

Tang Qiulu’s anger flared up immediately; how could Su Changfeng have told Sun Mei about this!

Go back!

When they get back, she’ll definitely punish him.

A small van parked less than ten meters from the mother and daughter.

These days, those living in Qingshui Village are mostly elderly widows without children, so the van’s appearance made Tang Qiulu feel odd.

Could they be here looking for someone?

As the people in the van got out and walked towards them, Tang Qiulu felt something was off.

“Mom, run!” Tang Qiulu whispered to Sun Mei.

Sun Mei hadn’t noticed anything amiss, puzzledly asking, “What’s wrong?”

Tang Qiulu didn’t have time to explain; she hurriedly grabbed Sun Mei’s hand and ran. The people behind them saw this and immediately gave chase.

Sun Mei wasn’t fast enough, dragging Tang Qiulu; they hadn’t yet reached the village before those people blocked them.

“Trying to run? Hey beauty, you’ve got a nice figure, why not come along with a few of us — we’ll definitely take care of you real good,” the leader said, leering at Tang Qiulu’s figure.

“Who are you?” Tang Qiulu asked.

“Men, of course. Want to give it a try?” As he spoke, the group surrounded Tang Qiulu.

Sun Mei finally realized these guys were here to cause trouble and quickly stood in front of Tang Qiulu, saying, “Don’t touch my daughter! Do you even know who her husband is?”

“You wretched woman, get lost! Don’t block me from doing my business, or I’ll kill you,” the leader threatened Sun Mei.

By now, Sun Mei had witnessed Su Changfeng’s resoluteness, so she wasn’t scared. No matter who these men were, they couldn’t compare to Chen Hai’s standing.

“I advise you to think this through, or else…”

Before Sun Mei could finish her sentence, the man approached and kicked her down, then instructed his fellows, “Take the young one away and give the old one a good beating.”

Tang Qiulu faced these strapping men, utterly powerless to resist, and as she was taken to the van, she could only watch helplessly as Sun Mei was beaten.

Sun Mei screamed in pain, had to protect her head, and after the men left cursing, she sat up, terrified, and quickly called Su Changfeng.

“Su Changfeng, Qiulu was grabbed by someone in Qingshui Village.”

At this moment, Su Changfeng was still with Chen Hai. Hearing what Sun Mei said, a ruthless fury instantly surged within him, generating an intense murderous intent that Chen Hai felt while sitting next to him.

“I understand.” After hanging up, Su Changfeng said coldly to Chen Hai, “Someone has taken my wife.”

Chen Hai was shocked; who had the audacity to touch Su Changfeng’s woman!

“Brother Su, I’ll immediately send someone to investigate,” Chen Hai replied hastily.

Su Changfeng took a deep breath, calming his emotions. It was either Sun Wan or Sun Gui behind this.

After leaving Chen Hai’s group, Su Changfeng drove Chen Hai’s car to Sun Gui’s apartment.

Sun Gui’s family habitually stayed home, basically their norm, with no one wanting to work and make money, always contemplating illegal ways to earn.

Their family didn’t get money from Su Changfeng this time and was even beaten by him, making Zhao Meili extremely hateful, so she grudgingly paid 10,000 yuan for Brother Baldie’s involvement, showing how much she despises Su Changfeng.

“We spent 10,000. Can’t we ask Brother Baldie to make Su Changfeng kneel and apologize to us?” Zhao Meili asked Sun Gui.

If it were just Sun Wan tripping up Su Changfeng and Tang Qiulu, Zhao Meili felt the money was wasted; she needed to see Su Changfeng’s downfall to resolve her deep hatred.

Because Sun Gui got 20,000 out of this, he didn’t care about Tang Qiulu and Su Changfeng’s fate; now he merely hoped night would fall, so he could freely indulge at the bar and experience what being rich feels like.

“Mom, why are you so dumb? This cannot let Tang Qiulu know our family is behind it,” Sun Gui said.
