The City’s Strongest Son-in-law

Chapter 861: Chapter 860: Then Why Don’t You Take Your Head for a Walk?

At that moment, the sound of shattering glass suddenly echoed.

Chen Qingqing was cleaning inside the villa. She had taken over her mother Liu Lili’s job and became a maid at Han Xue’s house, responsible for cleaning and cooking every day.

While wiping a vase, she suddenly crushed it into pieces with her hands!

It wasn’t the kind of shattering that happens when it hits the ground; it just broke while she was holding it, without her knowing why.

This wasn’t the first time something like this had happened. Anything fragile would easily break in Chen Qingqing’s hands, even when washing dishes; it was easy for her to create a chip.

Sun Mei, who was already filled with resentment, seemed to find a place to vent. With a venomous expression, she approached Chen Qingqing and started scolding, ”You useless thing, what the hell are you doing? You can’t even handle a simple task like cleaning without messing up. Why did we hire you? Just like your mom, both useless.”

Facing Sun Mei, Chen Qingqing could only lower her head in fear. No matter how high and mighty Ji Hong seemed, or how stern Ye Qingtian appeared, in Chen Qingqing’s eyes, nothing was as terrifying as an angry Sun Mei.

”Look at what you’ve done. Do you have any idea how much this vase cost?” Sun Mei growled through clenched teeth. But the scolding didn’t satisfy her, and she slapped Chen Qingqing across the face.

Chen Qingqing held her face, feeling wronged. She didn’t even know why her strength had increased so much recently; she couldn’t control it.

She felt like she wasn’t using much force, but the vase still shattered as before.

”Mom, what are you doing? Qingqing just wasn’t careful. The vase itself isn’t worth much,” Han Xue quickly shielded Chen Qingqing.

Sun Mei retorted angrily, ”You’re still protecting this useless thing? You should fire her. She’s broken so many things lately. If this continues, I fear she’ll bring the whole house down.”

”Chen Qingqing was hired by me. If you want to fire her, you’ll need my approval,” said Ji Hong as she stood up and walked to Chen Qingqing.

Sun Mei’s aura was instantly suppressed by Ji Hong. While she could rant and rave at Chen Qingqing, she could only act timid in front of Ji Hong.

Watching nearby, Huo Tian frowned slightly. Chen Qingqing had indeed broken many things recently, but what concerned him wasn’t the number of things broken, but Chen Qingqing herself.

A mere woman having the ability to casually crush a vase was something that shouldn’t happen to someone like Chen Qingqing.

It was also evident that she wasn’t yet accustomed to her newfound strength and had no control over it.

Huo Tian exchanged a glance with Ye Qingtian, and they reached a consensus before leaving the villa.

In the garden of the villa, Ye Qingtian spoke to Huo Tian, ”You must have noticed something’s off, right?”

”Inside Chen Qingqing’s body, there’s suddenly a massive energy, and she hasn’t yet mastered it,” Huo Tian replied.

”This situation is eerily similar to Chang Feng’s previous one,” Ye Qingtian remarked, slightly sentimental.

Huo Tian nodded. Su Changfeng had previously consulted with him about a similar issue, so Huo Tian was very familiar with Su Changfeng’s situation at the time.

But he had thought this situation would only occur with Su Changfeng. Now, with Chen Qingqing experiencing something similar, Huo Tian was puzzled.

”Could it be that the room she’s staying in has something unusual about it? If I recall correctly, Chang Feng once lived in that same room,” Ye Qingtian suggested.

Huo Tian frowned upon hearing this. Even if Su Changfeng had previously lived in the room Chen Qingqing now occupied, it didn’t explain how Chen Qingqing acquired this power.

”How about we have Chen Qingqing change rooms, and I’ll stay there for a while to see if I can find the key?” Huo Tian proposed.

Ye Qingtian pondered for a moment before shaking his head, ”There’s no need. The source of the power isn’t the most critical factor. The key is that Chen Qingqing now has the potential to become stronger. Train her well; she might become a great asset to Su Changfeng. There’s a lot out there in other realms that we can’t understand, and since we can’t venture into those realms, there’s no point overthinking it.”

Huo Tian nodded, ”Alright then, starting tomorrow, I’ll arrange a formal training regimen for Chen Qingqing so she can quickly adapt to the power within her. If she becomes a valuable asset to Chang Feng in the future, that can only be a good thing.”

Ye Qingtian sighed exasperatedly, ”The events happening in the Chinese Town of M Country are beyond our expectations, and out of our control now. It’s all up to Chang Feng’s skills now.”

Huo Tian nodded again without saying more.

Chinese Town of M Country.

The old saying goes, ’It takes a hundred days to heal bones and tendons.’

Even though Su Changfeng possessed extraordinary regenerative abilities, the right leg that Ye Chenyu broke would still take a long time to heal.

Lying in bed, despite having the stunning Yue Qingshan caring for him around the clock, to Su Changfeng, being unable to do anything was a particularly miserable and frustrating situation.

”Can I go for a stroll now?”

”Can you stroll with your head?”

”Then can I at least step onto the balcony for some fresh air?”

”I’ll open the window for you.”

”I need to move a bit; otherwise, I’ll rust away.”

”Okay, join me for some in-bed exercises. I’ll teach you, just watch carefully.”

For every request Su Changfeng made, Yue Qingshan had a refusal ready in response.
