The City’s Strongest Son-in-law

Chapter 977: Chapter 976: Overcoming Obstacles and Defeating Opponents

Regarding this issue, Su Changfeng was confident. With a beauty like Yue Qingshan by his side all the time, he never had any improper thoughts, let alone about other women. He hadn’t even looked at them properly.

So Su Changfeng confidently said, ”I really refused them all. But if I had even the slightest improper thought about those women outside, let the lamp in our house fall and hit my head.”

Han Xue nodded with satisfaction and then threw out the second question: ”Has Qingshan fallen in love with you?”

Faced with this question, Su Changfeng was dumbfounded.

How did Han Xue know? Could it be she knew about the things in Cowpen District?

This question was not as simple as the previous one. If he said something inappropriate, it could affect the relationship between Han Xue and Qingshan.

”Alright, you don’t need to tell me. Your hesitation has already given me the answer.” Han Xue spoke without waiting for Su Changfeng to reply.

Su Changfeng was still feeling relieved that he wouldn’t have to answer this question, when Han Xue threw out the next question: ”What happened between you and Qingshan in Cowpen District these past few months?”

”Nothing happened between Qingshan and me. It’s true Qingshan likes me, but no matter what he said, I seriously refused him, and I didn’t give him any opportunity,” Su Changfeng said earnestly.

”Qingshan is as beautiful as a flower; which man wouldn’t be moved when he sees her? Since she took the initiative to come to you, can you still harden your heart and refuse?” Han Xue asked persistently.

This was definitely a loaded question, but Su Changfeng wasn’t one to be easily rattled. He smiled and said, ”No matter how pretty Qingshan is, she’s not as pretty as you. Besides, I’ve married a beautiful lady like you, why would I still provoke her? So it’s only normal for me to refuse her. After all, it’s impossible between her and me.”

”Sweet talker. Actually, I’m much better looking than I am,” said Han Xue.

”Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. In my heart, you’re the best-looking. No one in this world is prettier than you,” said Su Changfeng as he hugged Han Xue.

”Okay, your answers were pretty good. Let’s rest now,” said Han Xue as she suddenly lay down on the bed and covered herself with a blanket.

Su Changfeng was very happy to have finally passed his wife’s test.

The night grew deeper outside, with the moon hanging high among the branches.

Previously, the reason Su Changfeng bought this villa was to create a good environment for Han Xue so he could breathe fresh air when jogging in the morning. But ever since she got pregnant, although she said she wanted to exercise, she couldn’t do strenuous activities like jogging anymore, so Han Xue hadn’t been jogging much.

Now being a mom, with Sunian so young, Han Xue naturally had a lot to learn and do, so she hasn’t been jogging in the morning lately.

The air in the mountains was very fresh, and outside, you could hear some bird calls. The first rays of morning sunlight shone into the room through the windows.

Su Changfeng also woke up from his sleep, looking at Han Xue lying in his arms. He smiled, feeling very happy.

After a while, Su Changfeng slowly withdrew his arm, letting Han Xue lay on the pillow. He quietly got dressed and walked out of the room.

The air here was indeed very good. Known as the lung of the Earth, it was because the villa was built in the mountains. The price of villas here was higher than in other places. More importantly, it was because many people knew that Su Changfeng’s villa was here, so the housing prices skyrocketed. After all, becoming neighbors with Su Changfeng was considered very honorable.

Even so, there were those who wanted to buy, but some wanted to sell yet didn’t want to. Because those who previously bought villas were mostly not short of money, now why would they give up the opportunity to be neighbors with Su Changfeng for money?

After leaving the villa, Su Changfeng followed the mountain road, heading upward. The road had been paved with rubber, so walking was not very difficult.

Moreover, this road was where Su Changfeng and Han Xue often used to jog together. Walking on this road again, Su Changfeng was full of emotions, not knowing how long such happy times would last. So, he could only cherish the present and strive to play the role of a good husband and father.

After thirty minutes, Su Changfeng finally reached the top of the mountain. However, being winter, the wind was particularly biting.

”Ah!” Su Changfeng originally thought he might be the only one not snoozing under blankets in such cold weather. But to his surprise, there was someone else at the mountain top.

Yet, he was still some distance away, seeing only the vague silhouette of a person, so Su Changfeng slowly walked closer to see who it was.

Before him stood an elderly man, donned in a white robe with a long beard, exuding an extraordinary aura. At first glance, he did not appear to be of the mundane world.

”Old sir, in this cold Tuo Shi, standing atop the mountain, aren’t you afraid of the cold?” Su Changfeng politely asked.

The old man smiled faintly and did not directly answer Su Changfeng’s question but instead retorted, ”And what about you?”

”I’m still young, strong, and fit. This little breeze is nothing to me. But, given your old age, coming out in such cold weather cannot be compared to a young one like me,” Su Changfeng said kindly.

However, the old man did not accept Su Changfeng’s kindness, glancing around and said, ”Just because one’s older, does it mean they have to rest indoors and sleep all day?”

Su Changfeng indeed hadn’t expected the old man to have such a peculiar temper. It was inappropriate to compare him with himself, hastily saying, ”Sir, I’m just concerned about your health. After all, in such cold weather, catching a breeze could easily lead to a cold.”

Truth be told, Su Changfeng wasn’t afraid to offend the old man but simply didn’t want to argue unnecessarily with a stubborn old man over trivial matters.

”I ... Ahchoo ...” The old man suddenly sneezed before he even finished speaking, swallowing all the words he was about to say.

”Getting older does mean catching colds more easily. When I’m old, it’ll surely be the same for me. You should head down the mountain now, as the wind is really too strong up here,” Su Changfeng said with a smile.

The old man was quite embarrassed; he didn’t anticipate the wind to be this strong, even stronger than the wind at his home. Yet, he hadn’t traveled all this way to say just a few sentences to Su Changfeng; he hadn’t yet discussed the important matter and couldn’t go back just yet.
