The City’s Strongest Son-in-law

Chapter 873: Chapter 872: Taxi Driver

But Sun Mei doesn’t quite grasp this feeling deeply, because she is an adult, while Su Changfeng is just a baby in swaddling clothes.

Right now, Sun Mei deeply regrets everything, because she knows well what will happen to her once she’s discovered, which fills her with fear. She wishes she could turn back time, or that none of this had ever happened.

Yet such fanciful thinking is impossible to achieve; Sun Mei must pay the price for the things she has done, and these are the consequences she must bear.

After Shen Hanxue entered the room, Sun Mei spotted her through the glass doors on the balcony, and once again knelt before the glass doors, begging Shen Hanxue for mercy.

However, Shen Hanxue looked on coldly, despite the fact that the woman on the balcony was indeed her biological mother. Yet, this blood relationship meant nothing to Shen Hanxue, and she certainly wouldn’t show any mercy.

”That was the pain my daughter endured. Now, you must experience it firsthand,” Shen Hanxue said with a calm expression.

”Han Xue, I’m begging you, let me in. I’m almost at my limit. Do you really want to see me freeze to death on the balcony?” Sun Mei pleaded with a face full of desperation.

”You can rest assured that I won’t let you die just yet. Only Chang Feng can decide your fate,” Shen Hanxue said firmly.

”I’m your real mother. I raised you, and you can’t treat me this way. You’ll pay for this!” Sun Mei shouted hoarsely.

Shen Hanxue looked at Sun Mei with a sneer on her face. Retribution? Even if there would be retribution, she would surely avenge Su Changfeng, as she is Su Changfeng’s mother, and it is what she should do.

”Bring it on. Even if there’s retribution, it doesn’t matter to me. The price you must pay won’t end here. From now until Chang Feng returns, you will know what living hell feels like,” Shen Hanxue said coldly.

At Beijing Airport, when Ye Qingtian appeared, the whole of Beijing was in uproar.

Because in Beijing, Ye Qingtian had long since been a ”deceased,” but now this moment, Ye Qingtian suddenly ”resurrected,” which surely shocked many people.

In Ye Litian’s eyes, Ye Qingtian had always been a disgrace.

However, in a place like Beijing, Ye Qingtian was an extremely terrifying existence. The sensation Ye Qingtian caused in Beijing was something everyone didn’t dare underestimate, and now those families who previously opposed the Ye Family, upon knowing Ye Qingtian was alive and returning to Beijing, each could not help but tremble, fearing retribution from Ye Qingtian.

But Ye Qingtian wasn’t coming back to settle any scores this time; now, Ye Qingtian cared little for these powers and ranks. He would even say they were less satisfying than gardening in Jiang City.

If Su Changfeng can step into another realm, then the worldly powers here are just fleeting.

”Not sure how many noble families are so scared they won’t even go out,” Huo Tian said with a face full of emotion.

Ye Qingtian chuckled softly and said, ”In my view, none of this matters. I feel the garden on Xianwu Mountain in Jiang City is much more comfortable.”

Huo Tian also knew Ye Qingtian’s mind was entirely focused on Su Changfeng, and as for everything in Beijing, he was indifferent.

”But that doesn’t prevent the founder of the Ye Family from causing an impact upon return. Those who should be afraid won’t sleep soundly at night,” Huo Tian said.

”Perhaps.” Ye Qingtian flagged down a taxi.

After the two got into the car, Huo Tian told the taxi driver where they wanted to go.

The taxi driver was a local in Beijing, so he knew a bit about the Ye Family, a place that was once a very prestigious noble family.

Sadly, after Ye Qingtian and Ye Tian passed away, the Ye Family gradually declined in the Capital.

”You two aren’t locals, are you? Where you’re going used to be a particularly prestigious noble family,” the taxi driver chatted with Ye Qingtian and Huo Tian as he drove.

After exchanging glances with each other, Huo Tian smiled and asked the driver, ”A prestigious noble family, so impressive?”

”Naturally.” Speaking of this, the taxi driver’s face showed a self-satisfied expression, as if he himself were part of the Ye Family, boasting, ”You two aren’t locals, so it’s normal you don’t know the power of the Ye Family. But us locals are well aware that Old Master Ye Qingtian was once one of the most prominent figures in Beijing. I heard even many high-ranking officials had good relations with Old Master Ye.”

After saying this, the taxi driver suddenly shook his head and sighed, looking sentimental, ”Such a pity, the world has changed. The Ye Family, as it is now, is finished. In past years, after Ye Qingtian passed away, the Ye Family had Ye Tian to hold on, but now even Ye Tian has died. I even heard that the Old Madam Ye has also passed. The Ye Family’s only two descendants, one died young, and the other one is in prison, truly miserable.”

”So pitiful, looks like they must have done something heinous,” Ye Qingtian said with a smile.

Upon hearing Ye Qingtian’s words, the taxi driver looked annoyed and slammed on the brakes, seemingly wanting to argue with Ye Qingtian.

”Sir, your words are rather excessive. The Ye Family always did a lot of public welfare and charity. I’ve heard that the money they donated each year was in the seven figures. The people of the Ye Family would never do anything heinous,” the taxi driver argued, turning back to Ye Qingtian.

”You can only see the superficial phenomena now. No one knows if the Ye Family did anything vicious in the shadows. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be in this situation now,” Ye Qingtian said.

The taxi driver seemed to have a peculiar affection for the Ye Family. After hearing Ye Qingtian’s words, his face showed obvious anger, and he said directly, ”Sir, you two get out, I’m not taking this fare.”

Huo Tian found the situation amusingly frustrating, wondering how the Ye Family could still hold such a place in people’s hearts in Beijing. Even a taxi driver on the street spoke for the Ye Family!
