The City’s Strongest Son-in-law

Chapter 916: Chapter 915: Partnership Established

Of course, these twisted plots were completely unknown to Kong Yafei. In his heart, he just wanted revenge quickly. He felt that heaven had sent Shangguan Xuanjie to find him, giving him a tremendous opportunity.

In Kong Yafei’s view, if he didn’t seize such a God-given opportunity, he would never have a chance for revenge again in his lifetime, and he would only endure a life of swallowing his anger. So he resolved to cooperate with Shangguan Xuanjie.

”Tell me, what do I need to do?” Kong Yafei asked.

Shangguan Xuanjie curled his lips into a sinister smile. It seemed that this fool Kong Yafei did not suspect him, which was precisely the outcome he desired. After all, having a puppet to do his bidding greatly increased his safety.

”Yue Qingshan.” Shangguan Xuanjie uttered the name lightly.

Kong Yafei looked puzzled and asked suspiciously, ”What the hell? Weren’t we supposed to kill Su Changfeng? Why are we talking about Yue Qingshan now?”

”Could it be that you, once the arrogant scion of the Kong Family, aren’t aware that Yue Qingshan was once with Su Changfeng for some time? Their relationship is definitely not simple. If you capture Yue Qingshan, Su Changfeng will surely be at your mercy.” Shangguan Xuanjie, having had a bad experience due to Ye Nianhai, was convinced that capturing someone connected to Su Changfeng, like Yue Qingshan, would certainly make Su Changfeng submit.

”But have you forgotten that with my current abilities, I can’t even find Yue Qingshan? After all, Yue Qingshan is also protected by others.” Kong Yafei said with some difficulty.

”The bodyguards around Yue Qingshan are not worth mentioning. I will provide you with personnel, all professional assassins, so you need not worry about this.” Shangguan Xuanjie assured confidently.

Although Kong Yafei was willing to assassinate Su Changfeng alongside Shangguan Xuanjie, he was well aware that he was merely a tool for Shangguan Xuanjie to kill Su Changfeng. The reason he approached him now was because he still had some utility. When he no longer held value, Shangguan Xuanjie would undoubtedly discard him without hesitation. Kong Yafei wasn’t foolish, so he needed to make clear the terms while he still held value.

”After I kill Su Changfeng, will I be able to regain everything that belongs to me?” With the Kong Family almost having nothing left, Kong Yafei had to make plans for the future.

”You don’t need to worry about that. If that kid Su Changfeng is dead, I can make the Kong Family secure and grant you absolute authority, completely replacing the current Ye Family. In my eyes, the Ye Family is nothing.” Shangguan Xuanjie said disdainfully.

”Who exactly are you?” Kong Yafei was taken aback by these words. The Ye Family was already a formidable presence in this circle, yet this stranger didn’t even regard them, making Kong Yafei even more curious about who exactly Shangguan Xuanjie was.

”You don’t need to know my identity. For now, you’re not worthy of knowing it. In your view, the Ye Family is an unrivaled family, but to me, they are nothing. Even that Su Changfeng, I don’t take him seriously.” Shangguan Xuanjie said with confidence.

This time, Shangguan Xuanjie wasn’t exaggerating. Even though the Ye Family was a major family, they were like ants before the Shangguan Family. However, the crux of the matter was that Shangguan Xuanjie was already halfway out of the Shangguan Family, and even Shangguan Sichen couldn’t care less about his life or death. Therefore, no matter how powerful the Shangguan Family was, they had nothing to do with Shangguan Xuanjie.

However, what Shangguan Xuanjie didn’t know was that from the day he left the Shangguan Family, Shangguan Sichen already didn’t care about his life or death.

In Shangguan Sichen’s heart, Shangguan Xuanjie could not compare to Su Changfeng. Moreover, if Shangguan Xuanjie truly attempted to harm Su Changfeng, Shangguan Sichen naturally couldn’t stand by. After all, Shangguan Sichen had a high regard for Su Changfeng, feeling that Su Changfeng’s character and abilities were unparalleled.

No one could understand just how important Shangguan Sichen’s desire to enter Tuo Shi was. Anyone in his way would face a dead end, even if that person was his own grandson.

”As long as there’s an opportunity to kill Su Changfeng and avenge myself, I’d be willing to do anything, even serve beneath others.” Kong Yafei said. He then directly knelt before Shangguan Xuanjie, completely abandoning his dignity.

He was no longer the once-arrogant scion of the Kong Family.

Shangguan Xuanjie looked at the kneeling Kong Yafei with approving eyes. He had initially thought it would take more time to persuade Kong Yafei. Unexpectedly, Kong Yafei was so astute, which made him very satisfied, and he laughed heartily.

”Su Changfeng, Su Changfeng, your good days are numbered. If you submit to me, I might consider sparing you, but since you insist on opposing me, don’t blame me for being ruthless.” Shangguan Xuanjie said viciously.

Meanwhile, Su Changfeng had settled Lu Qingqing in the company. He himself wheeled back. For him now, without Yue Qingshan by his side, it meant that many times, there was no one to take care of him. Many things became troublesome and difficult.

Fortunately, having grown up in hardship, Su Changfeng could still handle these matters one by one. Moreover, he liked challenges. The more difficult the task, the more he wanted to try, believing that only in such an environment could he break through again.

Since Lu Qingqing went to work at the company, there was no one to accompany Su Changfeng consistently, making life quite dull.

Of course, that sycophant An Shiwen would still come to Su Changfeng’s villa daily to deliver some daily necessities and chat with Su Changfeng.

Su Changfeng was somewhat worried about the relationship between An Shiwen and Mu Yang, given they had a deep-seated hatred that was hard to resolve.

For Su Changfeng, keeping An Shiwen by his side was because he was still useful. Firstly, the An Family was indeed not a small family; secondly, An Shiwen’s uncle, An Yufei, had once saved his life, and he didn’t want to repay kindness with enmity.

But concerning Mu Yang, Su Changfeng had promised him that once the time was right, he would allow him to seek revenge. Su Changfeng valued promises greatly; once he promised something to someone, he had to fulfill it, which was his principle.

Thus, the current situation left Su Changfeng in a dilemma, unsure of which side to choose.

After all, choosing An Shiwen meant breaking his promise, but choosing Mu Yang would lead to a more challenging situation, potentially even leaving himself with a reputation for ungratefulness.
