The City’s Strongest Son-in-law

Chapter 316: Chapter 317: No One Believes in Su Changfeng

Not long after, Lin Qingmeng also arrived. Her carefree nature was in stark contrast to Yue Qingshan’s. As soon as they met, she threw herself at Yue Qingshan, almost knocking her over.

“Qingshan, I’ve really missed you. It’s been so long without you visiting. I was worried you might be swept away by some foreign handsome guys.” Lin Qingmeng put her hand on Yue Qingshan’s shoulder, feigning a threatening look, and said, “Be honest now, how many foreign handsome guys are chasing you? Are any of them extremely outstanding? Introduce one to me! If I remain single for long, I might as well become a nun.”

Yue Qingshan didn’t seem to reject Lin Qingmeng’s enthusiasm and replied with a wry smile, “I haven’t dated anyone either. Otherwise, we might as well find a nunnery together.”

Lin Qingmeng looked incredulous, “You can’t be serious about not dating. Once you take off your glasses, all those foreign hunks will fall for you.”

Yue Qingshan instinctively adjusted her glasses and replied, “Maybe I’m just not their type.”

“Qing Meng, Qingshan has been back in the country for 3 months now, but she’s just now coming to see us. So you do the math,” Tang Qiulu said with a laugh.

“What!” Lin Qingmeng was instantly shocked, putting on a serious face at Yue Qingshan, “So, Yue Qingshan, you came back to the country and didn’t inform me? Have you forgotten the itch of Lin Family’s hand?”

The two of them instantly burst into laughter together. Su Changfeng couldn’t help but ask Tang Qiulu quietly, “You all seem pretty close, huh?”

“We were in the same dorm in college and never lost contact after graduation. But Yue Qingshan went abroad after graduation, so it’s normal you haven’t met her before. We’re like sisters, even traded clothes before,” Tang Qiulu explained.

Su Changfeng nodded. No wonder Lin Qingmeng can be so brazen; their relationship is clearly that good.

Su Changfeng particularly wanted to ask one question because Lin Qingmeng had just mentioned that if Yue Qingshan took off her glasses, many people would be captivated. He was curious about how Yue Qingshan would look without her glasses.

But clearly, this was not a question to be voiced, so he kept it to himself.

“By the way, why did you come back but didn’t see me first, and instead went to see Tang Qiulu? Has our relationship deteriorated, and you now value Qiulu more?” Lin Qingmeng suddenly remembered and pinned Yue Qingshan down on the sofa again.

Yue Qingshan was extremely ticklish and had no choice but to yield to Lin Qingmeng’s ‘tyranny,’ quickly saying, “Qiulu asked me over; it has nothing to do with me.”

“Hmph, I don’t believe you.”

Tang Qiulu came to the rescue, saying, “Indeed, I invited her. Someone wants to play Go against Qingshan.”

Someone?

Lin Qingmeng was momentarily stunned, looking at Su Changfeng, sizing him up with disdain, and said, “Could this ‘someone’ be you? Do you not realize Qingshan was the leader of our university Go club?”

Seeing Lin Qingmeng’s look of disbelief, Su Changfeng smiled wryly, “Can’t it be me?”

Lin Qingmeng shook her head with emotion, “I mean, it can be. I’m just worried you’ll cry when you lose, and you won’t have a face left then.”

Su Changfeng glanced at Yue Qingshan, seemingly held in high regard by Lin Qingmeng and Tang Qiulu, convincing him that Lin Qingmeng had good reason to be confident in Yue Qingshan.

After they had a meal, fearing things wouldn’t stir up, Lin Qingmeng eagerly set up the Go board, massaging Yue Qingshan’s shoulders as if preparing for a boxing match.

“Yue Qingshan, don’t hold back, let this guy see how impressive you are,” Lin Qingmeng said to Yue Qingshan.

Yue Qingshan shyly glanced at Su Changfeng and said, “I’m not as impressive as they say, please go easy on me in the game.”

Lin Qingmeng was immediately unhappy, saying to Yue Qingshan, “Qingshan, why say that? It’ll kill your momentum. You were a legend in our university; even Huangfu Heibai said you were impressive back then.”

These words surprised Su Changfeng a bit. Huangfu Heibai was a proud individual; even he said Yue Qingshan was impressive. It seemed her skills weren’t to be underestimated.

But in the eyes of a battle-ready Su Changfeng, even if Huangfu Heibai were here, he still had a shot at victory, let alone against Yue Qingshan.

“Yue Qingshan came back this time also to participate in the Go tournament. If you’re interested, you can use this game to assess your skills,” Tang Qiulu said to Su Changfeng.

Su Changfeng nodded and started the game with the black pieces.

But since neither Tang Qiulu nor Lin Qingmeng knew anything about Go, they soon felt bored and sat aside, reminiscing about their school days.

“By the way, after this return of hers, will Yue Qingshan leave again?” Lin Qingmeng asked.

“She said she’ll leave after the tournament ends because her parents are still abroad,” Tang Qiulu said.

“Sigh,” Lin Qingmeng sighed, “If only Qingshan could stay in the country, we wouldn’t have to wait so many years to meet.”

“After university graduation, who isn’t fighting for their future? If you miss her, you can just go abroad to see her,” Tang Qiulu laughed.

Even though she felt reluctant, at this point, they were all adults, so they had to be responsible for their future.

“If I had as much money as you, I’d definitely go see her every month,” Lin Qingmeng said.

Tang Qiulu sighed inwardly. Even though she was well-off now, life was busier than before, and sudden issues with the company left her breathless. It wasn’t as simple as Lin Qingmeng imagined.

Lin Qingmeng was lazy and didn’t want a demanding job but desired a high salary. Although her character wasn’t flawed, her attitude meant she wouldn’t achieve much in life.

Tang Qiulu had once warned Lin Qingmeng about this, but she remained indifferent, and from then on, Tang Qiulu had almost stopped saying anything.

By then, Lin Qingmeng noticed Yue Qingshan’s increasingly solemn expression and said, “Could it be that Su Changfeng might actually win against Qingshan? Why does Qingshan look so grim now?”

Tang Qiulu was also a bit surprised to see this. She hadn’t seen Su Changfeng play Go before; could what he said earlier be true?

Tang Qiulu suddenly remembered Su Changfeng’s earlier piano performance. Before seeing him at the Yunding Restaurant in the mall, she hadn’t known he played the piano, but his performance then shocked all of Hai City.
