Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 259: Chapter 258 Going to the Party Together

Dongzi was about to speak when Auntie Wu immediately said with a smile, ”As long as you’re doing well, that’s all that matters. You’re right, child, I just want to know that you’re doing well. You can be modest with others, but there’s no need to be modest with Auntie Wu!”

Dongzi smiled and said, ”Auntie Wu, it’s not about making a lot of money, just small ventures. But, as long as you’re willing, I can take care of you until the end, ensuring you have a good life, and that’s absolutely no problem!”

Auntie Wu was visibly touched, ”Oh, you have the right intention, that’s enough for me. I have Qi’er here, and Qi’er will take care of me!”

”Grandma Wu, why don’t you and Sister Qi’er come over and live here too?” Zhao Kai said eagerly, ”I have four properties, you and Sister Qi’er can live in one, no problem at all!”

This prompted Dongzi to nod repeatedly, ”Auntie Wu, if there’s nothing holding you back, you can come and live in Zhongchang City too, let me have the chance to show my filial piety!”

”Let’s not, Qi’er has a job in Nanluo City, I’ll stay with her!” Auntie Wu said with a laugh.

”What job is so important?” Zhao Kai grimaced and said, ”Why not let Sister Qi’er come to Zhongchang City? I can find her an even better job. It pays more and it’s easier, definitely much better than what she’d get in Nanluo City!”

Auntie Wu quickly replied, ”Oh no, that won’t do, we’re doing just fine in Nanluo City, thank you both so much!”

Upon finishing, Auntie Wu took a quick glance at Su Yang, worried that he might get angry because of Zhao Kai’s tactless remarks.

In fact, from beginning to end, Su Yang had remained as impassive as an old monk in meditation, completely ignoring Zhao Kai’s comments.

To Su Yang, Zhao Kai was the type that was easy to see through, belonging to those rich playboys who couldn’t walk straight when they saw a beautiful woman.

However, his family’s assets weren’t so great as to allow him to be too extravagant; hence, his boastful behavior mainly revolved around showing off his modest wealth.

Among the second generation, Zhao Kai belonged to those considered lesser, the type with a little money who would act like a thug, incapable of making a real mark.

Two hours later, they finally arrived in Zhongchang City.

Dongzi lived in a fairly upscale neighborhood in Zhongchang City, which of course was nowhere near as nice as Longshui Bay where Su Yang lived. However, it was considered quite good for Zhongchang City.

Zhao Kai deliberately drove around the more recognized landmarks of the neighborhood to show them off, and managed to boast, somewhat smugly, that in Zhongchang City, those who lived in this neighborhood were either rich or noble!

Naturally, Auntie Wu was deeply impressed, given that they had all come up together from poverty. Seeing Dongzi able to live such a life now brought her immense joy.

Dongzi’s apartment was one of the 200-plus square meter duplexes in the neighborhood, and surely counted among the more high-end ones there. But compared to Su Yang’s detached villa, it was worlds apart.

After settling in at home, Dongzi’s wife Xie Min was waiting. She greeted Auntie Wu and the others with little emotion on her face. After all, it was her husband’s benefactor, not hers!

However, she was visibly surprised when she saw Qi’er. Qi’er’s beauty could stun anyone who laid eyes on her.

Seeing Zhao Kai’s enthusiasm, Xie Min immediately realized what her son was thinking and couldn’t help but smile.

If they could bring back such a daughter-in-law, it would definitely be a feather in their cap.

Yet, with Su Yang around, she couldn’t help but frown. Who was this young man, around Qi’er’s age, and what was he to her?

After everyone had sat for a while, Dongzi asked Xie Min to start preparing lunch.

”Mom and Dad, I won’t be eating at home for lunch; I’ve got a gathering with friends!” Zhao Kai said hurriedly.

”You child, Grandma Wu finally pays a visit, and your gathering is more important?” Dongzi said with a glare.

”It’s fine, Old Zhao,” Xie Min smiled and added suddenly, ”Oh, right, Xiao Kai, why don’t you take Sister Qi’er with you? She’s about the same age as you guys, surely she’ll fit in with your group. Also, take Sister Qi’er for a tour around Zhongchang City this afternoon, and don’t neglect her, okay?”

Zhao Kai almost burst out laughing. Wouldn’t his face soar right into the sky if he could take Qi’er to the gathering?

”Okay, no problem. Mom, don’t worry, leave it to me!” Zhao Kai said excitedly, ”Sister Qi’er, let’s go together!”

”I... I’d rather not go...” Qi’er said quietly, somewhat intimidated by Zhao Kai.

”Oh come on, there’s nothing to it!” Zhao Kai reached for Qi’er’s arm again, ”It’s just a meal, we’re all young, what’s there to be afraid of!”

Qi’er stepped back, but Zhao Kai was relentless and tried to grab her hand.

Just then, Su Yang grabbed Zhao Kai’s wrist and said with a smile, ”Since we’re all young, maybe I should join as well?”

”Huh?” Zhao Kai was stunned, and Xie Min was also confused. What was going on?

At that moment, Qi’er felt overjoyed. If Su Yang went with her, she wouldn’t have anything to be afraid of.

”I was planning to go with Sister Qi’er, what are you butting in for?” Zhao Kai glared and said.

”Little Su, what the heck are you doing? Are you afraid that the food at my place won’t agree with your stomach?” Xie Min said, her voice oozing sarcasm.

Su Yang replied, ”I don’t know whether the food at your place will agree with my stomach or not. But seeing you, I doubt I’d be able to eat!”

”What kind of way is that to talk!” Xie Min immediately got angry, slamming the table as she stood up.

”What do you want to do!” Zhao Kai also widened his eyes, staring angrily at Su Yang.

”Ay, ay, ay, stop fighting, what’s going on? He’s a guest, you... what are you doing?” Dongzi hurriedly tried to smooth things over.

”What guest, did you hear the way he spoke!” Xie Min angrily shot back.

”Enough, enough, will you stop making a fuss,” Dongzi waved his hand and said, ”Well, Xiao Kai, since Doctor Su also wants to go, you might as well take him along. Qi’er, have fun this afternoon. We’ll eat together in the evening!”

Qi’er looked at Su Yang and smiled, ”Alright!”

Though Zhao Kai was displeased, it seemed that if Su Yang didn’t come along, Qi’er wouldn’t either. In the end, he grudgingly decided to bring Su Yang. However, he was already preparing to thoroughly humiliate this so-called Doctor Su at the gathering and show him what it meant to be beyond his depth!

Descending the stairs, Zhao Kai brought out his 600,000 yuan BMW and opened the passenger door, ”Sister Qi’er, come sit here!”

Qi’er shook her head and followed Su Yang to the back seat.

Zhao Kai was helpless. If Qi’er had sat in the front seat, he would have had a chance to get handsy. Now that she was in the back, he was out of options.

”Hey, do you know how to drive?” Zhao Kai glared at Su Yang.

”I’m licensed!” Su Yang nodded.

”Then you drive!” Zhao Kai immediately opened the back door, ”I’ll sit in the back. I’ve been driving all morning and I’m a bit tired!”

”Alright!” Su Yang got into the driver’s seat, and Zhao Kai quickly moved to the back. But at this point, Qi’er ran to the front and sat in the passenger seat.

Zhao Kai: ”...”
