The City’s Strongest Son-in-law

Chapter 607: Chapter 608: Chen Xueqi’s True Purpose

After returning home, Chen Xueqi pondered the question, while a look of doubt appeared on Wang Feifei’s face. In Wang Feifei’s eyes, no wealthy person would spend a fortune on such an apartment here, given the abundance of upscale neighborhoods in Jiang City.

”Sister Xueqi, do you think our new neighbor might have other motives?” Wang Feifei asked.

”What motives?” Chen Xueqi inquired.

”Like...” Wang Feifei hesitated for a moment, then said, ”Like maybe this person wants to become a neighbor of someone specific.”

Suddenly, Wang Feifei jumped up on the sofa with a look of surprise, and said to Chen Xueqi, ”Sister Xueqi, could it be that one of your suitors found out you live here and bought the property just for that?”

Chen Xueqi had many suitors, some of whom had done quite extravagant things, but she’d never encountered such a wealthy man before; otherwise, she wouldn’t remain so aloof and single.

Yet Wang Feifei’s theory seemed plausible – perhaps he was planning to showcase his wealth in front of her.

”Sister Xueqi, you’ve been receiving quite a few flowers lately, yet it’s unclear who sent them. I’m sure it’s the person who bought the house,” Wang Feifei said, completely convinced.

Chen Xueqi couldn’t help but smile; she knew it wouldn’t be for Wang Feifei, as when they’re together, it’s definitely her that draws more attention.

”Sister Xueqi, I’m so envious of you, having a wealthy man pursuing you, while no one seems to like me,” Wang Feifei said with a look of pity.

Even though no one could definitively determine this man’s intentions yet, Chen Xueqi already felt that he might truly be pursuing her, causing a flutter in her heart.

Chen Xueqi was particularly independent and didn’t want to become a gold-digger, but the key point was that those pursuing her weren’t particularly outstanding or wealthy.

However, this newly appearing neighbor could afford to buy Brother Wang’s house for a hefty sum, move in a day, and pay extra, undoubtedly displaying a power that an ordinary person wouldn’t possess. Chen Xueqi’s heart couldn’t help but be stirred.

The chance to marry into wealth isn’t something many women would continue to strive against alone.

”You’ll surely meet someone who admires you someday too; perhaps the timing just hasn’t matured yet,” Chen Xueqi said with a smile.

At this moment, Chen Xueqi was particularly eager to see what kind of person it was – so wealthy, and if he were handsome, he’d undeniably be her True Prince.

”Let’s hope so,” Wang Feifei lowered her head. She was quite aware of her own standing and believed it would be quite good if she could marry someone who genuinely loved her, without expecting him to be particularly rich.

In the evening, Su Changfeng returned home and also noticed the neighbors moving out. However, Su Changfeng didn’t inquire about it, as he didn’t think he’d live here permanently, so whoever lives next door didn’t matter.

Yue Qingshan was busy in the kitchen, the house already filled with tantalizing aromas. Su Changfeng was quite impressed with Yue Qingshan’s culinary skills. Although Su Changfeng himself was also a good cook, compared to Yue Qingshan, there was a significant gap.

From a certain perspective, Su Changfeng and Yue Qingshan were similar; both came from affluent families but excelled at everyday chores usually done by servants, and were even familiar with the prices of daily necessities.

”Did you know the neighbor plans to move?” Su Changfeng called out to Yue Qingshan from outside the kitchen.

”I hear the noise all day, but I haven’t gone out,” Yue Qingshan replied. Ever since she arrived here, she’d stayed inside because the house carried Su Changfeng’s essence, making her feel closer to him. With her current situation, there was no particular task to do, and even if she went out, she wasn’t sure what she might do.

”Aren’t you worried you’ll feel cooped up staying inside all the time? You should take a stroll if there’s nothing else to do. Haven’t Han Xue and Lin Qingmeng called to invite you out lately?” Su Changfeng asked.

”They’ve been extremely busy; how could they have time to go shopping?” Yue Qingshan responded.

”Is the organization particularly busy?” asked Su Changfeng.

”If you’re trying to ask about Shen Hanxue using a different method, I have nothing to tell you because I don’t know either,” Yue Qingshan said with a calm face.

Su Changfeng chuckled awkwardly. Trying to get information about Shen Hanxue from Yue Qingshan wasn’t appropriate, and Yue Qingshan didn’t want to bring up the topic.

”When can we eat?” Su Changfeng changed the subject.

”If you’re hungry, go ahead and start; I’m making another dish,” Yue Qingshan said. She took care of Su Changfeng in a very subtle way, always putting his needs first.

”That seems a bit inappropriate; I’ll go take a shower,” said Su Changfeng before heading to the bathroom.

Taking a shower was an ordinary thing, but when Su Changfeng saw Yue Qingshan’s underwear hanging in the bathroom, he suddenly felt restless.

Though he was already married, all of Jiang City knew that he and Shen Hanxue hadn’t had any relationship; the impact of seeing such personal items was significant for Su Changfeng.

Su Changfeng swallowed and tried to focus his gaze elsewhere.

”Could it be Yue Qingshan did this deliberately?” Su Changfeng muttered to himself.

Yue Qingshan in the kitchen was clearly a bit distracted, her mind seemingly not on cooking, and she occasionally glanced toward the bathroom as if she had other thoughts.

After Su Changfeng finished showering, the two sat down to eat. Yue Qingshan lowered her head, and Su Changfeng also didn’t speak, creating an awkward atmosphere at the table.

Then suddenly, the sound of knocking on the door broke the tension. Su Changfeng went to the door and upon opening it, a face he’d never seen before appeared.

When Ye Lianchen saw Su Changfeng, he was equally surprised; he knew Yue Qingshan lived here, but didn’t expect another man to be present.

Could it be that Yue Qingshan and this man were together? Maybe this guy had even slept with her!

”Who are you looking for?” Su Changfeng asked.

”I’m the new neighbor,” Ye Lianchen replied.

”They just moved out today and you’ve already moved in?” Su Changfeng asked curiously.
