The City’s Strongest Son-in-law

Chapter 704: Chapter 705: Dao Jiu’s Decision

Regarding Dao Jiu’s very straightforward agreement, Zhu Lie was not surprised, because he understood what kind of person Dao Jiu was.

”Have we sent people to Purgatory three times in a row? Is there any possibility of them being prepared for it over there?” Zhu Lie asked.

Dao Jiu shook his head and said, ”Even if the people in Purgatory know that those going in are there to investigate them, they tend to turn a blind eye.”

”Are they that arrogant?” Zhu Lie frowned.

”For such a long time, who knows how many people have entered Purgatory. All of them trying to uncover its exact location — so many people want to find out the secrets of Purgatory — but so far, no one in the world has succeeded, and that’s why they are exceptionally arrogant about it. Even if I were to go in under the banner of investigating Purgatory, the people in there would only think I’m an idiot,” Dao Jiu said.

Zhu Lie sighed helplessly. Purgatory’s arrogance made him increasingly feel that the likelihood of Su Changfeng getting out was very slim, as it meant that such a mysterious organization likely had no one ever return from it.

”Alas, we should discuss this thoroughly. If we can’t maximize our value when we go, doing so would only implicate someone else.” Zhu Lie said with a bitter expression.

”Boss Zhu, I only have one request now: take good care of my daughter. Don’t let anyone harm her,” Dao Jiu said.

Even if Zhu Lie hadn’t come to the Boxing Arena this time, he would have gone to Zhu Lie eventually, so Dao Jiu had already made up his mind to go to Purgatory. He wanted to let Su Changfeng know that Tang Qiulu was pregnant with his child, and he believed that once Su Changfeng received the news, not even Purgatory could stop him.

”Rest assured, from now on, Wang Xiaoyun is my daughter,” Zhu Lie said.

Dao Jiu smiled and said, ”I’ll go train the fighters at the Boxing Arena first. It might take another two weeks to get in touch with the people from Purgatory.”

Zhu Lie intended to say something more, but in the end, he still didn’t speak. He finally shook his head helplessly, patted Dao Jiu’s shoulder, and left.

Getting into the car, Zhu Lie said to Feng Bin, ”This kid Changfeng is really lucky to meet someone like Dao Jiu, who’s willing to risk his life for him. He knows that going might be a one-way trip, but he still chooses to go.”

Feng Bin nodded. Dao Jiu’s attitude towards the matter was indeed surprising.

”Ninth Brother has some understanding of Purgatory, but he still chooses to go. This means that Dao Jiu truly values Brother Changfeng,” Feng Bin said.

Zhu Lie touched his chin, full of doubt, and asked, ”What do you think gives this kid Changfeng such great charm? Not only do so many girls like him, but even men are willing to lay down their lives for him.”

When it came to this, Feng Bin could say he was quite enlightened. Back then, before Su Changfeng helped him become a big shot, he was nothing more than a nameless thug — it was Su Changfeng who gave him a chance.

And, unlike others, Su Changfeng didn’t have any strict rules or airs. He allowed his subordinates to seize opportunities themselves. If they really seized the opportunity, Su Changfeng would promote them, and wealth and fame would follow.

If Feng Bin hadn’t hesitated when dealing with Wang Long, his status might have changed significantly.

And in this matter, Feng Bin never blamed Su Changfeng; he only blamed himself for hesitating at that time.

”Brother Changfeng is different from those other bosses. Moreover, he doesn’t restrict you everywhere, giving you a lot of room to grow. And when a subordinate encounters something, Brother Changfeng will take it upon himself to resolve it. This may be why Brother Changfeng is so charming,” Feng Bin said.

”This kid Changfeng certainly has the demeanor of a ruler, but unfortunately, he chose to go to a place like Purgatory, where getting out is uncertain,” Zhu Lie sighed.

Even though he didn’t know much about Purgatory, after hearing Ninth Brother mention it a few times, he believed it was the most impregnable prison in the world. Even if he thought nothing could stop Su Changfeng, the possibility of him coming out of Purgatory wasn’t a simple feat, and there was little hope.

”I hope that after Ninth Brother goes, he can change the situation. Once Brother Changfeng hears that his wife is pregnant, I think no matter how tough a problem he faces, no matter how dangerous the situation, he won’t easily give up,” Feng Bin said.

Zhu Lie nodded. That’s why he wanted Dao Jiu to relay the message to Su Changfeng. Only by letting Su Changfeng know the news would he not easily give up, because he still has a wife and child waiting for him in Jiang City. He wouldn’t just watch his wife and child depend on each other for survival.

”You damn fool, make sure you come back. I have no time to take care of your wife and child,” Zhu Lie cursed through gritted teeth. He felt particularly regretful at this moment. If he had stopped Su Changfeng from going to Purgatory, if he were still in Jiang City now, these problems wouldn’t have arisen.

Even though Ye Qingtian was particularly important to Su Changfeng, given that Tang Qiulu was pregnant with his child, he certainly wouldn’t decisively go to Purgatory.

On the hillside villa, Tang Qiulu was unable to do any work at home now.

It wasn’t that Tang Qiulu didn’t want to do anything; it was because Liu Lili wouldn’t let her.

Liu Lili had taken over all the household chores and daily trivialities; she even followed Tang Qiulu when she went to the bathroom.

With Su Changfeng not at home and Shen Zhenhua often going out drinking with friends, Liu Lili now considered Tang Qiulu her daughter, fearing any accident might happen to her.

Su Changfeng changed Liu Lili’s life. If it weren’t for Su Changfeng, she wouldn’t know where she would be or what job she’d be doing. Now, words couldn’t express her gratitude towards Su Changfeng, so she chose to repay him with actions, taking meticulous care of Tang Qiulu as a way to repay Su Changfeng.

While Tang Qiulu was sitting in the living room watching TV, she got up, and Liu Lili hurried over to her side, asking, ”What do you want to take? Aunt Liu will get it for you.”

”Aunt Liu, the doctor said that I shouldn’t sit all day long, but get some exercise because it benefits the baby’s development. Let me move around at home,” Tang Qiulu said with a wry smile.

”It’s okay to move around, but don’t carry or take anything,” Liu Lili said.
