The City’s Strongest Son-in-law

Chapter 583: Chapter 584 Yue Qingshan’s Persistence

At this time, he was already a leading figure in the gray areas of River City, yet he still had the appearance of a small thug. Looking at this situation, Zhu Lie still remained the same.

”The Urban Village plan, it’s intentionally a bit uncertain.” Su Changfeng said.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Lie’s expression became very serious. Although he usually liked to joke around, when it came to serious matters, he was incredibly earnest.

The Urban Village was Su Changfeng’s first step in his opposition to the Ye Group. Therefore, there couldn’t be any accidents in this matter; otherwise, Su Changfeng would have little chance of turning things around.

”What’s wrong? What happened?” Zhu Lie asked.

”Ye Qingcheng likely knows my next plan now. She might be preparing to turn the Urban Village into a wasteland.” Su Changfeng said.

Zhu Lie’s brows knitted together; Su Changfeng had invested a tremendous amount of money to acquire the entire Urban Village. If Su Changfeng really turned it into a wasteland, such a massive loss would be unbearable, even for someone with Su Changfeng’s financial strength.

In fact, Su Changfeng’s current financial resources could bear the loss because he had already returned to the Ye Family from Beijing, and Yue Qingshan had likewise provided him with a fund. However, the Urban Village was not simply about having money; it was about elevating Weishui’s position in River City, so Su Changfeng did not want to see anything go wrong.

”Ye Qingcheng can’t turn the Urban Village into a wasteland. If she did, it means she’s definitely getting on good terms with those people in River City.” Zhu Lie said.

”That’s why I came to Charming. Ye Qingcheng has been getting particularly close to those guys recently. You need to find a way to make them change their minds about the plan.” Su Changfeng said.

Zhu Lie nodded, although he did not like dealing with those guys, at this moment, he had to step forward and couldn’t allow Ye Qingcheng’s plan to come to fruition.

”I’ll handle it, don’t worry. Just watch how I play with those guys.” Zhu Lie said.

As an old hand in the underworld, Zhu Lie certainly had his ways of handling matters. Su Changfeng had nothing to worry about, but when dealing with these people, it was best to be cautious. He reminded, ”Don’t be too careless. These folks are in high positions and are not easy to deal with.”

Zhu Lie patted Su Changfeng on the shoulder and said, ”As long as I have some dirt on them, they’ll have to behave and listen.”

”We’ll see how you do. Being able to control these people will be beneficial for the future.” Su Changfeng said.

The two talked for a while longer, and then Su Changfeng left Charming. He checked the time; it hadn’t even been three hours, but this time should be enough for Yue Qingshan to pack her things. She must have left by now.

Su Changfeng lingered outside for a while, returning home only when it was nearly dinner time.

Upon opening the door, Su Changfeng saw Yue Qingshan immediately stand up and, pretending nothing had happened, say to him, ”You must be hungry. I’ll heat something up for you.”

Su Changfeng didn’t expect that Yue Qingshan hadn’t left. Her red eyes clearly told him she had cried, making him unsure of what to do.

Originally, he thought that after Yue Qingshan left, the boundary between them would become clearer. But since she hadn’t left, it became a bit complicated.

Standing outside the kitchen, watching Yue Qingshan expertly heat up the dishes, Su Changfeng said, ”Why do you insist on getting yourself hurt?”

Yue Qingshan rubbed her eyes and replied, ”The smoke is too stinging, it made my tears flow. You’d better stay in the living room.”

Instead of leaving, Su Changfeng went in and approached Yue Qingshan, saying, ”You should know, no matter what you do for me, you can’t change anything.”

”This is what I want to do now, to take care of you as a friend. Is that not possible?” Yue Qingshan said, lowering her head.

”But I’m fine now, and I don’t need you to take care of me.” Su Changfeng said firmly, deciding that the best way to solve the problem was to cut it off sharply. He didn’t want to leave Yue Qingshan with any possibility of false hope.

”But I’ve already given you all my money, and I have nowhere else to go. Do you want me to sleep on the street? After all, I’m one of Han Xue’s good friends; can’t you show some kindness?” Yue Qingshan said.

Su Changfeng showed a face of helplessness. How could Yue Qingshan have no place to stay? If she asked her family, they could provide her with enough money to buy a house. She was just using this as an excuse to stay.

”Can you please leave first and not disturb me while I cook?” Yue Qingshan pushed Su Changfeng out and closed the door.

Su Changfeng went to the living room and saw the trash bin filled with used tissues. Those were likely all from wiping Yue Qingshan’s tears, which made Su Changfeng feel even heavier in heart.

Su Changfeng had never thought of doing anything to betray Shen Hanxue. He hadn’t done it before, and he wouldn’t do it now or in the future. That also meant Su Changfeng was destined to disappoint Yue Qingshan’s feelings.

After Yue Qingshan finished cooking, they sat face to face at the table.

Yue Qingshan lowered her head, anxiously fearing that Su Changfeng would still drive her away.

Though Su Changfeng wanted to speak, he couldn’t say anything because Yue Qingshan’s attitude was so determined, and he couldn’t bear to keep hurting her.

”How is it? Is it good?” Yue Qingshan asked Su Changfeng.

”This time the dishes are a bit salty. It might be because of your mood; the taste of the dishes changes with it. I think you don’t have to wrong yourself like this; after all, you are the daughter of the Zhou Family.” Su Changfeng said.

Yue Qingshan had thought the same way, and she knew that with her status, she could definitely find someone who truly loved her.

But with Su Changfeng, Yue Qingshan couldn’t understand why she was so persistent. Initially, her intention was to use Su Changfeng but gradually, it evolved into genuinely liking him.

Even Yue Qingshan herself couldn’t figure out why there was such a change until the moment Su Changfeng asked her to leave. The heart-wrenching pain she felt made her realize she couldn’t let go anymore.

”I’m just doing what I want to do.” Yue Qingshan said calmly.

No matter what Su Changfeng said or did, Yue Qingshan’s perseverance was unwavering in her heart. Yue Qingshan believed her current choice was not wrong and would never regret it.

In the end, a helpless Su Changfeng could only let Yue Qingshan stay at home. Su Changfeng had already been particularly heartless, and he couldn’t forcefully drive Yue Qingshan out, as they were still working together, and it wouldn’t be good for him to go too far.
