Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 213: Chapter 213: The Arrogant Fang Family

Qingyun Clubhouse.

As soon as Su Yang returned to Nanluo City, Hou Shilin personally picked him up.

The Hou Family’s troubles had been resolved; both Hou Xiaolian and Hou Xiaoyi had been released, and Hou Xiangde had also returned from the Capital City.

Qingyun Clubhouse had reopened for business, and Ling Zi had been released; everything was as it was before, with no changes.

Hou Xiangde, Hou Xiaolian, and Hou Xiaoyi were all waiting at Qingyun Clubhouse and hurriedly came up to thank Su Yang upon his arrival.

Su Yang’s trip to the provincial city had crippled the Xue Family, suppressed the Nan Family, dismantled Jiu Long Garden, and marched up to Qin Family’s doorstep. Although the news was suppressed, a great family like the Hou Family could still vaguely hear about these events.

The members of the Hou Family were now just inwardly relieved that they had formed ties with Su Yang instead of opposing him. Otherwise, they might have met the same fate as the Xue Family by now.

Of course, Hou Xiangde was also feeling deeply moved. At the most critical moment, he had timely handed over all family affairs to Hou Shilin, which was also a gesture of goodwill towards Su Yang. And indeed, his decision had proven to be absolutely correct.

Without Hou Shilin, would Su Yang have helped the Hou Family so much?

Now that the Xue Family was gone, the strength of the Hou Family had indeed risen. Speaking of which, the Hou Family might now have a chance at competing for a spot among the provincial city’s Ten Great Families!

Su Yang had nothing much to say to Hou Xiangde and the others; understanding what had been done, the three of them thanked him and left first, leaving Hou Shilin to accompany Su Yang.

”Brother Su, I thank you again for everything this time!” Hou Shilin repeated his thanks.

”We are brothers; why mention such things?” Su Yang said with a smile.

”Heh, after all, you’ve been on the move for quite some time, which must have been quite tough,” Hou Shilin chuckled and then said, ”Oh yeah, Number Three’s secretary called, asking me to apologize on his behalf. This incident has affected him, so he couldn’t directly intervene in these projects. However, he’ll be cleaning house in the next few days, and the projects will continue as originally planned!”

”Good!” Su Yang nodded.

”However, these past few days, there has been quite a ruckus at the Third Hospital,” Hou Shilin frowned, ”especially the Fang Family. Fang Jianhong, in charge of overseeing these projects, has been pressuring the city to hold your family accountable and forcing you to return to cooperate with the project. Our family was too busy to deal with them the past couple of days; do you want me to take care of it for you?”

”Not for the time being,” Su Yang shook his head.

”Ah?” Hou Shilin couldn’t help but show his surprise. ”Brother Su, are you going to continue tolerating them?”

Su Yang didn’t speak; he sighed softly. Of course, he wouldn’t tolerate the Fang Family’s behavior. The crucial issue was that it was entangled with the marriage between him and Lin Qingru, which was the key issue he wanted to resolve.

After he had showcased his formidable capital last time, the Fang family immediately wanted to continue the marriage arrangements with Lin Qingru, and Fang Cui even stopped resisting; this was what troubled Su Yang the most.

And now, after this incident, the Fang Family thought he was going to collapse and immediately started wanting to break off the marriage. For Su Yang, this was actually an opportunity to call off the engagement first.

In the afternoon, Su Yang went home and directly called his father, Su Ping, asking him to get in touch with Lin Ze Ping. He invited them over for dinner to continue discussing the marriage engagement.

Lin Ze Ping received the call and was naturally overjoyed. He immediately phoned Fang Cui and asked her to get ready to visit Su Yang’s house that evening.

Fang Cui was with Fang Jianhong and Fang Hui. Fang Hui hadn’t returned to Beixing Mall yet, but for the past few days, she had been strutting around with Fang Jianhong.

Fang Jianhong was now in charge of the projects at the Third Hospital and had already promised Fang Hui that she would be responsible for the procurement for these projects.

Fang Hui was naturally over the moon with joy, following Fang Jianhong around with the hope of making a big profit from these projects. Compared to them, her Beixing Mall seemed like child’s play.

Fang Cui also had nothing to do, so she spent her days at the Third Hospital, making her presence felt. Her main goal there was to wait for Su Yang to collaborate on the project, so that when the time came, she could ridicule him.

However, she didn’t get to see Su Yang; instead, she got a call from Lin Ze Ping.

After listening, Fang Cui immediately frowned.

”Sis, what’s wrong?” Fang Hui asked in surprise.

Fang Cui said in a grave voice, ”It’s the Su Family. They want us to talk about Qingru’s marriage again!”

”Dammit, this bunch of bastards, they just won’t go away!” Fang Jianhong instantly became annoyed, ”They should take a good look at themselves in the mirror and see what they really are, still thinking about Qingru’s marriage alliance.”

Fang Cui clenched her teeth and said, ”I think they want to take advantage of the fact that the Hou Family hasn’t fallen yet and they are still living in Longshui Bay, to quickly settle the marriage. That way, we won’t be able to back out in the future!”

Fang Hui angrily said, ”What’s up with these people? Do they really think they can live in Longshui Bay’s villas forever? The Hou Family is about to collapse, and once they do, they’ll have to roll back to that old house of theirs, still trying to act all high and mighty!”

”This is outrageous!” Fang Jianhong slammed the table and exclaimed angrily, ”I am the first to disagree with letting Qingru marry that Su fellow!”

”Me too!” Fang Hui shouted defiantly.

”You might not agree, but there’s nothing that can be done,” Fang Cui sighed, ”You both know what Old Lin’s temperament is like.”

”What about his temperament? What about it? Hey, if he’s got a temper, do I not have one?” Fang Jianhong said furiously, ”Haven’t I endured him enough over the years? What is he, anyway? Whenever he sees someone from the Fang Family, he never shows a good face. Oh, only that stinking farmer Su Yang is worthy in his eyes, our Fang Family isn’t good enough for him? What rubbish!”

”Sis, it’s not just you. Haven’t we endured Lin Ze Ping enough over the years?” Fang Hui also spoke sternly, ”It was fine in the past years because our family had no power to pressure him. But now it’s different. Jianhong is in charge of these projects now, and our Fang Family has a say. What right does Lin Ze Ping have to lose his temper? I’d like to lose my temper at him!”

Fang Jianhong, pride written all over his face, nodded repeatedly, ”That’s right, you’re absolutely right!”

After hesitating for a moment, Fang Cui spoke softly, ”So, why don’t you both accompany me tonight and let’s mess up this marriage affair?”

”Yes!” Fang Jianhong immediately nodded, ”I happen to be free tonight, so I might as well go take a look. If that bastard Su Yang dares not agree, I will call the police right away and have him arrested, let’s see if they dare to talk back then!”

Fang Hui, gritting her teeth, said, ”Exactly, the project has started for so long and he hasn’t shown up, that’s breaking the law. Arrest him, sentence him to ten or eight years!”
