The City’s Strongest Son-in-law

Capítulo 979: Chapter 978: In Front of the Ye Family’s Gate

At this moment, outside of Chang Feng’s house, the entrance was already so crowded that not even a drop of water could pass through; it was truly a sea of people.

“So many people came today!”

“Who wouldn’t say that? I got up at five o’clock, but when I came over to switch shifts, I found there were still lots of people.”

“Chang Feng is indeed Chang Feng, his influence is truly immense.”

“You don’t even need to say that. Who is Chang Feng? In today’s Jiang City, who dares to disrespect him?”

“I remember a few years ago, he was recognized as the worthless son-in-law of Jiang City, but look at him now! He has suddenly transformed into a big figure in Jiang City.”

The security guards on duty at the entrance were chattering away.

They were right. A few years ago, Chang Feng’s reputation in Jiang City was terrible. When you mentioned him, the words that came up most often were trash, waste. But now? Who dares to use those words anymore? Everyone is trying their best to curry favor with him.

Most of the people standing outside Chang Feng’s villa were owners of various hotels. They all had one purpose, which was to have Chang Feng host a birthday banquet at their venue. So right now, everyone was rushing over to please Chang Feng.

Among these people, there were not only the big hotels from Jiang City, but from other cities as well, at least a hundred hotels. The competition was fierce, and many had no certainty of being chosen but didn’t want to give up. After all, it’s up to fate. If Chang Feng did choose them, it would be a great honor, and their hotels would develop better in the future. Who would waste such an opportunity?

The security guards watching this scene were incredibly shocked; they had never seen such a grand spectacle before.

However, the influence of this event is not just what you see here; there’s much more behind the scenes. For instance, there are many prominent families who don’t own hotels, but since Chang Feng wants to host a 100-day banquet for Sunian, they’ve started planning to open hotels because only this way can they seize the opportunity to connect with Chang Feng.

“Should I go notify President Ye and have him come over?” The security guard on duty asked, as there were simply too many people and it was already so crowded that it was impassable. If this wasn’t resolved, their leader would surely be furious, and they might lose their jobs. They needed to come up with a solution.

But the bigwigs waiting outside waved their hands when they heard the security guard ask. They were willing to wait here even if there might be no outcome. They certainly wouldn’t dare to offend Chang Feng now, so they could only wait for his summons.

After all, it’s early in the morning, and Tuo Shi is still so cold. If they go to notify him and he’s sleeping, it would disturb his dreams. If they got blamed, they couldn’t bear the consequence.

The Gu Family soon received the news, and they chose to turn a blind eye. If these people wanted to wait outside, let them wait. As for blocking the entrance, that was a minor issue. Even those at the front, unable to leave, were willing. After all, no one forced them to please Chang Feng.

“Grandpa, Brother Changfeng is amazing. He’s just returned, and the whole city is already bustling.” Gu Qing’er said proudly to Gu Changsheng.

Gu Changsheng squinted, smiled, and said: “Now, Chang Feng’s status is not what it used to be. It’s only natural he has such influence. Nowadays in Jiang City, if your brother claims to be number one, no one dares claim second. And who doesn’t know he’s from the Ye Family in Beijing?”

“Tch!” Gu Qing’er retorted disdainfully. To her, Chang Feng’s achievements were not thanks to his family background, but his own efforts, and had nothing to do with the Ye Family in Beijing.

“Qing’er, your grandpa’s words are not untrue. Although I also think Chang Feng achieved his status through his own effort, having the background of being a young master from the Beijing Ye Family certainly made things smoother for him.” Gu Changsheng said seriously, worried his granddaughter wouldn’t believe him.

After hearing this, Gu Qing’er remained silent but pouting. She understood in her heart but felt it was unfair to Chang Feng. In her view, even without the status of the Beijing Ye Family’s young master, her Brother Changfeng would still be as impressive and achieve today’s standing.

“Grandpa, I’m planning to visit Brother Changfeng’s house later to see my girl Ye Zi.” Gu Qingtian said with a smile.

“Since when did you have a girl that this grandpa doesn’t know about?” Gu Changsheng laughed.

This granddaughter was still just a young maiden without even a boyfriend and suddenly claimed to have a daughter, seemingly skipping a few steps to be a mom.

“Brother Changfeng’s daughter is my daughter, Grandpa. You’re old now and don’t understand the fun of us young people. I’m off now.” Gu Qing’er finished speaking, and at that, Gu Changsheng waved his hand, watching her bounce away.

Watching his granddaughter leave, Gu Changsheng felt a bit helpless but nonetheless happy, despite their frequent bickering.

Gu Qingwen approached Gu Changsheng.

With a proud glance, Gu Changsheng said to Gu Qingwen: “Has Chang Feng now exceeded your expectations?”

Gu Changsheng asked because Gu Qingwen previously was skeptical of Chang Feng’s abilities, finding him limited in ability without much background and limited development space. But now, it’s clear Chang Feng’s development was beyond what Gu Qingwen imagined, and he had to admit his own shortsightedness.

“Father, I indeed misjudged this time, which shows my insight isn’t as good as yours.” Gu Qingwen sighed.

“Gu Qingwen, it’s not about your vision; it’s your unwillingness to accept it from the heart.” Gu Changsheng incisively remarked.

Gu Qingwen found this hard to accept, but he just thought about it and didn’t dare say anything in front of Gu Changsheng, fearing reproach.
