The City’s Strongest Son-in-law

Capítulo 793: Chapter 794: I Should Discover Something

And he wasn’t some arrogant and overbearing playboy at all.

“Don’t look at me with those eyes, my excellence doesn’t need your validation,” Su Changfeng said with a smile.

Yang Wenwen wrinkled her nose. Although she didn’t want to admit it in her heart, a voice inside her told her that Su Changfeng wasn’t as useless as he appeared.

“I don’t think you’re excellent,” Yang Wenwen said.

“Now that everything’s been clarified, let’s leave,” Su Changfeng stood up, not intending to stay for a meal at the Ye Family.

The table full of delicacies was something Yang Wenwen hadn’t even tried once, but she also had no intention of staying to eat because, after all, this was the Ye Family Villa District. Just standing there made her so nervous she felt like dying; how could she have the mind to sit and eat?

Once they left the Ye Family Villa District, Yang Wenwen finally relaxed and, pretending to casually observe Su Changfeng, realized her gaze had changed from before.

She couldn’t see through Su Changfeng and understand what kind of person he really was.

He looked like a carefree playboy wandering through a sea of flowers, but in reality, he wasn’t as worthless as she’d imagined. But why did he put on such an annoying front?

Sitting in the front passenger seat, Yang Wenwen couldn’t help but ask Su Changfeng, “What kind of person are you?”

“Take a good look, wouldn’t you have noticed by now?” Su Changfeng turned to Yang Wenwen and said.

“What should I have noticed?” Yang Wenwen asked, puzzled.

“Didn’t you notice how incredibly handsome I am?” Su Changfeng joked, starting the car and leaving the Ye Family.

Yang Wenwen rolled her eyes dramatically at this.

Of course, she admitted that Su Changfeng did have a handsome face, but that wasn’t what she was trying to ask about; she wanted to know what kind of person he was. However, since Su Changfeng clearly didn’t want to tell her, she simply closed her mouth and stopped asking.

After driving back to Su Changfeng’s place, he said to Yang Wenwen, “Cook me a bowl of noodles, and don’t forget the salt today.”

“At the Ye Family, you called all that food junk and insisted on coming home for noodles. Are you out of your mind?” Yang Wenwen said speechlessly. The table had everything you could think of, many dishes Yang Wenwen had never seen before.

“Isn’t the food dogs eat leftovers from trash piles? That’s dog food, why should we eat it?” Su Changfeng said calmly.

Yang Wenwen seemed to want to say something but held back. She really wanted to ask how Su Changfeng managed to make Ye Qingcheng his lackey, as Ye Qingcheng’s temper was notoriously fierce in China Town, yet Su Changfeng had left him speechless.

But Yang Wenwen realized that even if she asked, she might not get a response from Su Changfeng, so she didn’t bother.

After making a bowl of noodles for Su Changfeng in the kitchen, Yang Wenwen prepared to leave.

Slurping up a mouthful of noodles, Su Changfeng said to Yang Wenwen, “Isn’t it a hassle going back and forth like this? Wouldn’t you consider staying over here?”

Yang Wenwen glared at Su Changfeng and said, “Didn’t the Zhou Family’s young lady accompany you just last night? Isn’t that enough?”

“To be a groom every day, changing brides every time, a nightlife full of revelry—that’s the dream of men, isn’t it?” Su Changfeng laughed.

Yang Wenwen clenched her back teeth and glared at Su Changfeng, managing to squeeze out four words after a long time—”Truly shameless!”

With a loud bang, the force of the door closing echoed, and the smile on Su Changfeng’s face gradually faded.

“Shangguan Sichen, oh Shangguan Sichen, by now you should know that I’m just a lecher who loves beauties, right? But would you find it easier to control someone like that?” Su Changfeng muttered to himself.

On the small island, in the Shangguan Family’s castle.

Shangguan Sichen sat in his study, a satisfied smile on his face.

From the messages sent by Yang Wenwen, it seemed that Su Changfeng was indeed enamored by the allure of money, just as he’d imagined; in this world, there simply aren’t any men who don’t love money and beautiful women.

Everyone, when faced with a large enough sum, would be lost to the allure of money, even someone like Su Changfeng.

“Money, indeed, is the most powerful thing. It helps you get what you want, so spend freely. The Shangguan Family has enough wealth for you to squander for lifetimes,” Shangguan Sichen said with a smile.

Previously, Shangguan Sichen thought only Shangguan Wenchuan had the capability to lead the Shangguan Family into another era of greatness.

But now, with Su Changfeng’s appearance, Shangguan Wenchuan seemed rather dispensable to him.

Even though Shangguan Xuanye, who could control Su Changfeng, also seemed marginal to him, such control, no matter the reason, was an extremely unstable factor in Shangguan Sichen’s eyes.

The only way for Su Changfeng to truly see himself as part of the Shangguan Family and work for them would be to support him.

Shangguan Sichen didn’t care about the impure Shangguan blood in Su Changfeng, for as long as he could see the Shangguan Family enter another realm before he died, any price would be worth it.

Blood ties, to Shangguan Sichen, were merely shackles, dispensable in this context.

Standing up, Shangguan Sichen left his study and went to the room where Shangguan Xuanye lived.

These days, Shangguan Xuanye was deeply troubled. He never imagined that the helper he brought back would, in Shangguan Sichen’s eyes, surpass him in importance, and now there was even a high chance that the position of Family Head of the Shangguan Family could be taken by Su Changfeng.

This situation was something Shangguan Xuanye was unwilling to see, so he was doing everything possible to prevent this from happening.

However, Shangguan Sichen now closely monitored him and Shangguan Wenchuan; if he were caught taking action against Su Changfeng, the consequences would undoubtedly be severe, so Shangguan Xuanye didn’t dare make a move yet.

Hearing a knock at the door, Shangguan Xuanye mistakenly thought it was Shangguan Wenchuan coming to use him as a pawn again.
