The City’s Strongest Son-in-law

Chapter 504: Chapter 505 People Are Selfish

”Her?” Ji Hong’s eyes instantly filled with murderous intent. In her view, anything that could shake Su Changfeng was a definite threat.

”I advise you not to act on that idiotic idea in your head. Killing her won’t make Su Changfeng stronger, because Chang Feng’s strength is based on Tang Qiulu. Chang Feng is willing to do anything to protect Tang Qiulu. You could say she’s his faith, but if that faith is lost, do you think Chang Feng will continue?” Huo Tian said.

”That woman is truly lucky. She’s just a woman from a second-rate noble family in Jiang City, yet Chang Feng views her as so important,” Ji Hong said disdainfully.

”Maybe Chang Feng only feels some affection from Qiulu. To someone like Su Changfeng, who hasn’t had familial love since the age of 12, this emotion is what Chang Feng values the most,” Huo Tian said.

”You don’t need to talk in riddles. Can I change what Shangguan Feihong has decided?!” Ji Hong coldly replied.

”You can’t change anything, but you could do better. However, your actions are not worthy of a mother,” Huo Tian sneered.

Su Changfeng experienced everything in the Su Family. He witnessed it all; when the love of everyone in the Su Family was showered on Ye Weijun, Su Changfeng could only envy them in secret.

As a mother, Su Changfeng was her flesh and blood. Ji Hong should have cared for him, but like the rest of the Su Family, she excluded Su Changfeng from her affections.

”Shangguan Feihong can kick me out of the Su Family at any time. If I don’t listen to her, do you know what fate awaits me!” Ji Hong angrily stared at Huo Tian. In her mind, everything she’s done was out of helplessness, but Huo Tian shifted the blame onto her.

”All you do is because of your selfishness!” Huo Tian chuckled, staring directly at Ji Hong.

Ji Hong was speechless. If she wasn’t afraid of being kicked out of the Su Family, maybe she would have given Su Changfeng some love.

But she was scared. Back then, she was enjoying a life of luxury. At that age, Ji Hong still pursued luxury brand clothing and bags, and fearing she could no longer enjoy these things, she acted according to Shangguan Feihong’s orders.

As a mother, Ji Hong did indeed fail, and she was gravely mistaken.

”Yes, I am indeed unworthy of being called a mother, but what I’m doing now is for Su Changfeng’s sake!” Ji Hong argued.

”The current you is still especially selfish. You plan to use Su Changfeng to find and eradicate the Su Family’s enemies, and you even hope he will deal with the M Country Su Family. But you completely ignore the difficulties and dangers that come with Su Changfeng doing this!”

”No mother wouldn’t wish for her child to have a stable life. Look at you; you’re willing to let Su Changfeng throw away his life without even blinking an eye.”

”A selfish person cannot change, just like a dog always loves to eat shit!”

After saying this, Huo Tian walked towards the door.

If you observe closely, you’d be surprised to find that with every step Huo Tian took, the ground behind him bore a particularly deep footprint.

If the soil were soft, this wouldn’t be remarkable. But the ground was extremely dry, so leaving such footprints was truly astonishing!

Ji Hong stood dazed in the small courtyard for a long time.

Huo Tian’s words had a deep impact on her, and they shook her inner resolve somewhat.

But after a long time, Ji Hong’s eyes became more determined.

”He is a member of the Su Family, and these are the things he must do. Even if I’m selfish, I’m doing it all for the Su Family, not for myself!” Ji Hong mumbled through clenched teeth as she sought a self-deceiving excuse.

The people of the Su Family, the soul of the Su Family!

If Su Changfeng can’t bear the responsibility of the Su Family, then he doesn’t qualify to be part of it.

”Father, whether you’re still alive or not, I hope you can bless Chang Feng. The future of the Su Family now rests on his shoulders,” Ji Hong said, leaving the courtyard.

She also understood that her visit wouldn’t likely change Huo Tian’s attitude, so she could only hope Huo Tian wouldn’t interfere too much in Su Changfeng’s affairs.

When Ji Hong arrived at Jiangcheng Airport, planning to return to Beijing, a group of people suddenly blocked her path.

”Who are you?” Ji Hong asked.

”Our lady wishes to see you. Come with us to meet our lady.”

Lady?

Ji Hong frowned. Who was the lady they spoke of?

When Ji Hong saw Ye Qingcheng at the Golden City Hotel, she was very surprised.

She had come alone from Beijing to Jiang City this time, and no one knew, yet Ye Qingcheng was aware she was in Jiang City.

Ye Qingcheng looked at Ji Hong, smiled slightly, and said, ”Considering our previous relationship, I should respect you as my elder, but unfortunately, your branch family has not been recognized. So, I’ll just call you by your name, Ji Hong?”

”What do you want?” Ji Hong asked.

”Did you come to Jiang City to help Su Changfeng, or are you planning to persuade him to change his name?” Ye Qingcheng asked.

”My visit to Jiang City has nothing to do with him. Since you know I came to Jiang City, you should also know I haven’t sought out Su Changfeng,” Ji Hong said.

”I only just received this news. You met with someone here, so you’ll have to tell me who,” Ye Qingcheng said, standing up from the sofa in the room and approaching Ji Hong.

When there was only one step between them, Ye Qingcheng stopped. Being slightly taller than Ji Hong, she looked down at her with an imposing stance.

”I give you this advice: you’d better not lie to me. Even though you’re the lady of the Beijing Su Family, in my eyes, you don’t count for much,” Ye Qingcheng coldly stated.

Confronted with such a powerful aura, Ji Hong was astonished. This level of dominance, even Shangguan Feihong lacked. Ji Hong felt it was an overwhelming pressure dealing with Shangguan Feihong, but facing Ye Qingcheng made her realize the disparity.

And Ye Qingcheng was only in her twenties, without the long years needed to cultivate the aura Shangguan Feihong had.

Could this be the aura of someone truly from a powerful noble family?

”I haven’t met with Su Changfeng,” Ji Hong replied.

Ye Qing suddenly stepped up to Ji Hong and slapped her face with a sharp crack, coldly saying, ”Tell the truth to the lady, or I’ll ruin your old face!”
