The City’s Strongest Son-in-law

Thinking back to when the Li and Wu Families brought in Fourth-rank Experts, and when Wang Junyi’s dozen or so Second-rank subordinates suddenly vanished, everything seems to point to one person she always considered a waste, Su Changfeng.

And somehow, Wang Junyi’s attitude towards Su Changfeng seemed less confrontational than before, although on the surface there was no apparent link between them, but all these things seemed too strange.

Given Wang Junyi’s temper and his status now as a Fourth Rank Expert, encountering Su Changfeng would typically mean, if not engaging in a fight, at least mocking him a few times. Yet, it seems that he has never said anything overly harsh to Su Changfeng.

At this thought, Shen Rushuang suddenly sat up from her bed, her eyes shining unusually bright.

”Could it be that the last thing Wang Junyi said was referring to Su Changfeng!” Shen Rushuang murmured in shock. Wang Junyi had said that someday, she would realize what she missed and would deeply regret it.

After pondering for a while, the only thing she had overlooked lately, which could be considered regrettable, seemed to be Su Changfeng.

For such a long time, he was just regarded as a waste by everyone, but as long as he was involved, strange changes would occur.

As Shen Rushuang thought about this, the unease in her heart grew heavier. Despite not having any evidence proving her guess was correct, she couldn’t think of any other possibility.

Even though it was already late at night, Shen Rushuang still got dressed, intending to go to Su Changfeng’s room to have a look.

The maid had to stay up at night in case Shen Rushuang needed anything, so she was also sleeping in the side room.

”Miss, why are you up? Is there something you need?” The maid, awakened, looked at Shen Rushuang in confusion.

Shen Rushuang didn’t speak. After getting out of bed, she hurriedly left.

Seeing this, the maid also quickly got dressed and chased after her. Being Shen Rushuang’s personal maid, if anything happened to Shen Rushuang, she would likely face dire consequences as well.

”Su Changfeng, open the door, hurry and open the door.” Shen Rushuang arrived at the door of Su Changfeng’s room, pounding on it vigorously.

Soon, the maid finally caught up, seeing Shen Rushuang’s actions with a strange look.

Everyone in Tianshui City knew that Su Changfeng had been driven away a few days ago. Hadn’t the miss heard the news? Or was she rejected by Wang Junyi and couldn’t handle it, resulting in confusion?

”Miss, Su Changfeng is no longer in the Shen Family.” The maid said.

”Not in the Shen Family?” Shen Rushuang froze, turning her head to look at the maid, filled with urgency: ”What does this mean? Why is he not in the Shen Family?”

”Miss, Su Changfeng was driven away by the young master a few days ago; don’t you remember?” The maid asked cautiously.

”Driven away? How come I don’t know?” Shen Rushuang was utterly surprised, seemingly having no impression of it. She could even say that since returning, she hadn’t paid attention to anything else, constantly pondering over Wang Junyi’s words.

”The young master drove him out a few days ago.” The maid said.

”Then where is he now? I must see him, right now.” Shen Rushuang said anxiously.

Of course, the maid had no clue where Su Changfeng was now; she was only a personal maid to Shen Rushuang, and matters unrelated to Shen Rushuang were none she was privileged to meddle in.

”I’m not sure, perhaps only the young master knows.” The maid replied.

Upon hearing this, Shen Rushuang proceeded directly to Shen Yunlong’s room.

Shen Yunlong, sleeping soundly, was awakened by the pounding on his door. Being disturbed at such time, he was filled with anger.

Yet before he could speak, Shen Rushuang’s voice rang outside, the anger in him vanished instantly. As his beloved little sister since childhood, Shen Yunlong could never bring himself to be angry with her.

Quickly opening the door, Shen Yunlong hadn’t yet found the chance to ask why Shen Rushuang had come so late when Shen Rushuang spoke first: ”Brother, Su Changfeng, do you have any news about him?”

”Su Changfeng?” Shen Yunlong couldn’t help but frown slightly, responding, ”What do you want to see him for? Moreover, why would I have any news about him?”

”Brother, I must see him; please help me find him, you must find him.” Shen Rushuang pleaded urgently, looking at Shen Yunlong.

Shen Yunlong, a bit confused, glanced sideways at the maid.

The maid, equally puzzled, could only shake her head at Shen Yunlong.

Shen Yunlong asked, ”What exactly happened? Why would you want to see that waste?”

”Brother, I truly have some very important thing that requires seeing him. Please help me; I will explain later.” Shen Rushuang answered.

Speaking of Su Changfeng, Shen Yunlong felt uncomfortable inside, but since Shen Rushuang said so, he naturally wouldn’t refuse her.

”Alright, then you hurry back to rest; it’s so late at night. It probably can’t be done today. Rest assured, tomorrow I will definitely help you find him.” Shen Yunlong said.

Shen Rushuang, anxious, still maintained her rationality. She looked up at the current sky; searching for someone wasn’t feasible, so she had to quell her mind.

After Shen Rushuang left, Shen Yunlong returned to his room, his face immediately darkening. Shen Rushuang intensely searching for Su Changfeng suggested something he didn’t know had happened, maybe something Su Changfeng had done to her.

”That waste, could he have bullied my sister?” Considering this possibility, Shen Yunlong couldn’t help but clench his fist: ”Hopefully not, otherwise, I will make you suffer a terrible end.”

Early the next morning, just after Su Changfeng woke up, Wang Junyi approached secretly, a bright smile on his face.

”What’s with the cheerful mood, did you commit any bad deeds yesterday? Your smile is quite unsettling.” Su Changfeng raised an eyebrow, glanced at Wang Junyi, and asked.

”Master, I’ve been honest lately, haven’t been up to any mischief. I came with good news for you this time.” Wang Junyi said smiling.

”Good news?” Su Changfeng raised an eyebrow, casting him a glance.

Wang Junyi chuckled, then moved closer to Su Changfeng, saying with a triumphant expression, ”Master, I’ve been having someone watch the movements of Xingluo’s people, and found that they’ve apparently left. Seems like they didn’t suspect me. Though a bit rude, they just left without a word; how indecent!”

”Whether they were rude I wouldn’t know, but they certainly haven’t left.” Su Changfeng replied with a smile.

”Haven’t left? That’s impossible!” Wang Junyi’s people reported that they hadn’t returned to the inn, obviously leaving Tianshui City, surely they didn’t change accommodations?”

”My people reported they hadn’t returned to the inn, didn’t that mean they left Tianshui City?”

”No, they just moved to a different location.” Su Changfeng said, smiling.
