The City’s Strongest Son-in-law

Su Changfeng looked at Gao Yuan helplessly and said, ”I never intended to blame you from the beginning, so how do you expect me to accept your apology?”

”And besides, it’s getting late now. Why are you still here? Aren’t you worried about being late for work?”

Gao Yuan had taken a special leave just to properly apologize to Su Changfeng, which is why she had the time to stand there all this while.

Gao Yuan looked at Su Changfeng and said, ”I took leave. I want to apologize to you, so this time I’ll be the host, and we’ll go out to eat. But if you disagree, I’ll feel that you’re still not accepting my apology.”

”But I really don’t think I’ll have dinner with you this time. I have other matters to deal with later. As for having dinner, let’s talk about it when we have time in the future.” Su Changfeng said directly.

Gao Yuan’s eyes reddened upon hearing this, looking as though she might cry.

Unmoved, Su Changfeng looked at Gao Yuan and said, ”Is this necessary? Don’t you feel a bit embarrassed?”

Gao Yuan’s attitude towards Su Changfeng was different from before, so she said, ”So what? You’re a man. Why should I feel embarrassed to act this way in front of you?”

Su Changfeng felt extremely helpless in his heart, but even if Gao Yuan started bawling in front of him today, he definitely wouldn’t choose to miss the event over her.

Thus, Su Changfeng said directly, ”I’ve told you, I have other things to attend to later, which are very important to me, so I need to leave immediately.”

”If you keep blocking the door and refuse to leave, you’re wasting my time. Or is this how you apologize?”

Gao Yuan frowned and looked at Su Changfeng, saying, ”But what matters do you need to attend to?”

”How does this concern you? Do you think I should just remain idle?” Su Changfeng said, furrowing his brows, now looking somewhat impatient.

Gao Yuan blocking his way made him feel a little annoyed.

Gao Yuan quickly waved her hand and said, ”I didn’t mean that. I just think you’re refusing to have dinner with me and using excuses.”

Su Changfeng ignored Gao Yuan. When Gao Yuan stepped aside, he walked straight out.

Seeing this, Gao Yuan suddenly felt very uncomfortable in her heart, even feeling quite distressed.

Su Changfeng wouldn’t pay any attention to Gao Yuan. To Su Changfeng, Gao Yuan seemed rather inexplicable.

When he got downstairs, Wu Feng had been waiting with the car for quite some time.

He was in charge of taking Su Changfeng to the event, so he came early and waited until Su Changfeng got out of bed, and even though he waited a long time, he wasn’t at all dissatisfied.

Because he didn’t have the courage to be.

”Are we heading straight to the hotel?” Wu Feng asked.

The event was being held at a hotel, and the host had even rented out the whole hotel, which was considered quite impressive.

”Yes.”

Su Changfeng nodded and said, ”Also, find me a place to stay.”

Wu Feng felt a bit strange upon hearing this but didn’t say anything.

At the hotel, many important figures from the Capital City had already arrived and were talking amongst themselves.

Everyone who could come here had prestigious status, each with a fortune of at least hundreds of millions.

Naturally, there were clear social hierarchies here, and those with higher status were surrounded by more people.

However, Shangguan Feihong and others seemed somewhat isolated.

Upon arriving, Shangguan Feihong spoke briefly with some old friends of the Ye Family, but could sense that their attitude towards her had changed.

It seemed they were just going through the motions.

Shangguan Feihong understood this was because the Ye Family no longer had Ye Qingtian. As such, most people looked down on the Ye Family, and the family’s fortunes had greatly declined.

The development was also facing certain challenges, and everyone believed the Ye Family was doomed, so there was no need to build connections.

Naturally, some saw this as an opportunity to completely defeat the Ye Family, reducing their adversaries.

This would mean more resources for them than before.

”Old Madam Shangguan.”

At this moment, Wei Guanglin approached Shangguan Feihong and spoke up.

Shangguan Feihong looked at Wei Guanglin in surprise, feeling slightly puzzled. In this setting, few people would willingly approach her; Shangguan Feihong usually initiated conversations.

Yet, Wei Guanglin proactively sought her out, even though they weren’t very familiar.

However, Shangguan Feihong knew Wei Guanglin was someone the family needed to draw close to, so she smiled and said, ”Mr. Wei, I heard your child had some trouble a few days ago. Everything okay now?”

”Yes, it’s been handled. Speaking of which, I have to thank someone whom you happen to know.” Wei Guanglin smiled and nodded.

Shangguan Feihong felt more puzzled upon hearing this. Wei Guanglin mentioned someone she knew?

She knew about the trouble with Wei Guanglin’s son, but who could be so capable to resolve the issue and know her personally?

Moreover, Shangguan Feihong couldn’t understand why Wei Guanglin mentioned this.

Was he trying to show off?

But Shangguan Feihong felt it unnecessary.

So Shangguan Feihong frowned at Wei Guanglin and said, ”Mr. Wei, what do you mean by this? I don’t recall knowing someone like that.”

Wei Guanglin didn’t directly tell Shangguan Feihong; he simply looked at her meaningfully, because he knew even if he revealed who the person was.

Shangguan Feihong would never believe it, as in her eyes, Su Changfeng was nothing but a useless waste. Everyone who knew Su Changfeng regarded him as such.
