The City’s Strongest Son-in-law

Chapter 438: Chapter 439: The Demi-Immortal Su Changfeng

Sun Wei deliberately cornered Sun Mei against the wall so that she had no way out and even refused to give her a chance to argue back.

“Dad, everything about the group is handled by Qiulu. I can’t make the call on this matter at all.” This excuse was too weak, even Sun Mei herself didn’t believe it because Qiulu was her daughter. If she insisted on having Tang Qiulu arrange it, how could Tang Qiulu refuse?

“You want to brush it off with an excuse? Yesterday, you said your family listens to you. Could it be that you can’t even decide on this matter?” Sun Wei said with a face full of displeasure, followed by, “Or are you planning on watching your mother and me live unhappily in our old age?”

“Dad, that’s not what I mean. How could I let you and mom be unhappy in your old age? In that case, I’ll think of another way.” Sun Mei said.

Sun Wei smiled smugly and said, “Then I’ll head back first. Your mom should be getting up now.”

Weiy Cuyun was lying on the bed in the room, barely asleep.

“How did it go, did Sun Mei agree or not?” Wei Cuyun asked.

Sun Wei replied with a smug smile, “I stepped in. How could this not work out?”

Wei Cuyun laughed happily and said, “This place is really nice. If I could live here forever, I would have no regrets in my life.”

Sun Wei looked around the room with full admiration; it was indeed luxurious, and he couldn’t help but say, “Yeah, such a nice villa, everyone would want to move in. Plus, there are maids; this is true happiness. Although it’s a bit late, better late than never.”

Listening to Sun Wei’s tone, he seemed to be planning not to leave.

Previously, when the Old Madam of the Shen Family was alive, she had the same thoughts. However, she cared about face and couldn’t do something so shameless.

But Sun Wei obviously didn’t intend to save face. This trait probably ran through the Sun Family, spanning three generations. Only Tang Qiulu wasn’t affected.

In the living room, Sun Mei was in a daze. She understood that Tang Qiulu definitely wouldn’t agree, but given what Sun Wei had said, she had no other options. At the moment, she only hoped Tang Qiulu’s attitude wouldn’t be too harsh.

On the top of Xianwu Mountain, Su Changfeng and Tang Qiulu sat resting. Whenever she looked at the entire view of Jiang City from here, Tang Qiulu felt very happy. She had no other thoughts, just believing that standing higher allowed her to see more beautiful scenery.

“Changfeng, once things settle down at home, let’s hang the organized wedding photos, shall we?” Tang Qiulu’s face was full of happiness.

This was something Tang Qiulu had been looking forward to for a long time. Now that the additional wedding photos had nearly been sorted out, she felt very touched whenever she thought of it.

But at the same time, she felt very sorry for Su Changfeng because it was something they should have done three years ago, but she had made Su Changfeng wait for over three years.

Tang Qiulu’s words brought a wry smile to Su Changfeng’s face. Tang Qiulu seemed unaware of the Sun Family’s intentions for coming to Jiang City.

“Those people won’t leave,” Su Changfeng said.

Tang Qiulu stared at Su Changfeng and saw him raise his eyebrows at her, and her face showed a trace of anger.

“Are you saying the Sun Family plans to stay in Jiang City forever?” Tang Qiulu said.

Su Changfeng nodded, “Think about it. If they return to Bin County, the Sun Family would still have nothing. But it’s different in Jiang City; you’re now the chairman of the Shen Family Group.”

Tang Qiulu’s expression turned cold, “Those people, with their lack of capability, aren’t qualified to enter the group at all.”

“Whether they are capable is not the key issue. The main thing is how your mother will handle it. But in my opinion, she definitely won’t be able to refuse. Maybe she’s already waiting for you to return,” Su Changfeng said.

Su Changfeng was well aware of these parasites in the Sun Family. Their purpose for coming to Jiang City couldn’t be as simple as just visiting for a few days. What Su Changfeng considered was Tang Qiulu’s current position as the chairman of the Shen Family Group, which could bring unimaginable benefits to those people.

As for how Sun Mei would decide, even without thinking hard, Su Changfeng could guess. She cared so much about face; the Sun Family members only needed to throw a bit of flattery, and she wouldn’t know who she was.

“Are you that sure? You’re not a fortune teller; I don’t believe it,” Tang Qiulu said. Su Changfeng was no psychic, after all. He couldn’t possibly guess so accurately.

“Then let’s make a bet,” Su Changfeng smiled.

“Okay, how do you want to bet?” Tang Qiulu wore a challenging look.

“How about we bet that I can hold you while we sleep?” Su Changfeng said, seemingly still bothered by Lin Qingmeng’s previous challenge. Otherwise, Su Changfeng wouldn’t propose such a bet.

Tang Qiulu didn’t know what Lin Qingmeng had said to Su Changfeng; she thought he finally came around.

“No problem.” This might be the first time in her life she wanted to lose.

With a victorious look, Su Changfeng said, “Now that it’s settled, let’s go down. Mom is probably getting impatient waiting.”

“Tch, this time I must expose you, you liar,” Tang Qiulu said defiantly.

In the villa, Sun Mei was really getting impatient. Seeing Tang Qiulu return, she approached her with urgency.

“Qiulu, I have something to tell you,” Sun Mei said, pulling Tang Qiulu toward the room.

Tang Qiulu was a bit confused and glanced at Su Changfeng. Could what he said be true?

Su Changfeng raised his eyebrows and smiled, looking confident of victory.

“Mom, if you have something to say, just say it now. What can’t Chang Feng hear?” Tang Qiulu said.

Sun Mei looked at Su Changfeng. This matter would eventually reach Su Changfeng’s ears, so there was no point in hiding it now.

“Qiulu, is the group in need of more people now?” Sun Mei asked.

Su Changfeng won, but Tang Qiulu was particularly angry, not because Su Changfeng had won, but because Sun Mei actually wanted to let the Sun Family group into the company. How could she not know what the Sun Family members were like?!

“Mom, if you want them to enter the group, that’s impossible,” Tang Qiulu said with a determined look.

Tang Qiulu’s current attitude did not surprise Sun Mei. In her heart, she also particularly didn’t want to do this. The Sun Family members were her maternal relatives, and no one knew more than Sun Mei how capable or incapable the Sun Family was in Zhe Xi.

However, given what Sun Wei had said, she had to give it a try, and considering Tang Qiulu’s disposition, if she kept persuading, there might be a chance for her to agree.

“Don’t refuse so quickly. Let me tell you the actual situation first,” Sun Mei said softly.
