The City’s Strongest Son-in-law

Chapter 451: Chapter 452: Village Chief Wang Erlai

”Sun Gui, it’s all your fault that things have turned out this way.”

”If it weren’t for you, everyone wouldn’t be in this situation.”

”A useless person like you has no right to oppose Su Changfeng.”

On this point, it seems no one thinks Su Changfeng is a loser.

Sun Gui is also particularly regretful.

He even wants to kneel down and apologize to Su Changfeng. To stay in Jiang City and to work at Tang Qiulu’s company, he is willing to do anything, but unfortunately, Su Changfeng will never give him a chance.

”Aunt Mei, can you persuade Qiulu once more?” Sun Gui asked hopefully, looking at Sun Mei.

Sun Mei weakly shook her head. Just now, Tang Qiulu had already made it clear that if she pleaded for the Sun family, she would have to leave with them too. Sun Mei couldn’t risk her happy life.

”I can’t do it either,” Sun Mei said.

Sun Wei sighed helplessly. At this moment, he didn’t dare rely on his status as an elder of the Sun family, because Su Changfeng’s words were not just empty talk, as Zhao Meili’s death was right before their eyes.

Previously, he thought Su Changfeng was being controlled by Sun Mei and that he could use this point to gain a foothold in Jiang City, but from the recent situation, it seems Su Changfeng is not controlled by Sun Mei, rather, Su Changfeng gave Sun Mei some face, hence he did not take issue generally.

Now that Sun Gui had done such a foolish thing, Su Changfeng would no longer give Sun Mei face, and the current outcome is beyond Sun Mei’s ability to change.

”Sun Mei, visit Bin County when you have time.” Sun Wei said.

After the Sun family left, Sun Mei sat on the couch in the living room, her eyes unfocused, as she contemplated some matters.

Although Sun Mei was especially afraid of Su Changfeng because of the Shangguan Feihong incident, as time gradually diluted the matter, her fear also gradually diminished. She thought that as Tang Qiulu’s mother, she could rely on this point to still look down on Su Changfeng.

She thought Su Changfeng couldn’t be dominant in front of her, but now, upon reflecting on what Su Changfeng said before leaving, Sun Mei understood that Su Changfeng wasn’t particularly dominant at home simply because his bottom line hadn’t been crossed.

Sun Mei also realized that while Su Changfeng could retreat a step on some matters, there were things that he couldn’t back down on. She had to clarify those boundaries; otherwise, her fate might be the same as Shangguan Feihong’s.

Even a grandmother could be forced to death, let alone a mother-in-law without a shred of familial blood relation.

After leaving the villa, Su Changfeng found Zhu Lie to assist in investigating Liu Chen’s hometown. Although he had Chen Qingqing’s number and could contact her to know the address, Chen Qingqing was currently still in Rong City. If Su Changfeng asked her, Chen Qingqing would definitely worry about Liu Lili’s situation.

Zhu Lie tried his best to fulfill all of Su Changfeng’s requests and directly instructed a team to investigate.

”Changfeng, look at you, you seem very angry. Did something significant happen?” Zhu Lie could sense that Su Changfeng was particularly upset and was curious as to why.

Su Changfeng had been controlling himself; otherwise, Sun Gui’s life would have ended already.

Although he got beaten, Liu Lili got implicated, and Liu Lili was also beaten because she refused to compromise with Sun Gui. This made Su Changfeng increasingly angry.

”Nothing, just a small issue.” Su Changfeng said.

Zhu Lie shrugged helplessly. Since Su Changfeng didn’t want to talk about it, Zhu Lie was in no mood to ask further.

Liu Lili’s hometown.

In front of Liu Lili’s house, there were many rotten cabbage leaves and traces of rotten eggs smashed against the door, and some people even splashed manure into her yard.

Because most villagers felt that Liu Lili staying in the village would shame these people and taint the village’s reputation, they planned to drive Liu Lili away.

The current rumors had made the gossip-loving villagers speak as if they were the truth, and everyone genuinely believed that Liu Lili must have done something sneaky outside; that’s why someone would retaliate against her.

Looking at the yard full of garbage and the particularly smelly manure water, Liu Lili sat powerlessly outside the main room door. Since her husband passed away, villagers had always said that there were many disputes in front of a widow’s door. No matter which man appeared at Liu Lili’s house, he would be said to be her lover.

After learning of this, Liu Lili, to maintain her innocence, did not have any contact with other men in the village and did not allow other men into her house, but no matter what, it couldn’t stop the villagers from gossiping.

And these words lingered in Liu Lili’s mind like a nightmare. Forced by the circumstances, Liu Lili chose to go out to work to earn money, even renting a house outside specially, simply to avoid hearing these people’s gossip and their backbiting.

This time, if she had a choice, Liu Lili wouldn’t want to come back either, but without a job, where else could she go?

”Liu Lili, you shameless woman, fooling around outside all day, and you dare to come back. You really disgrace the whole village.”

”Leave immediately; don’t ruin our village’s reputation. No one wants to be around a shameless woman like you.”

”Do you have no shame at all? Who knows how many men you’ve been with outside? What if someone comes for revenge? How would you drag everyone into this?”

”Troublemaker, leave here, leave this village immediately.”

Outside the gate, beyond the courtyard wall, people kept cursing, and Liu Lili could only cover her ears, pretending that no one was speaking.

This house is hers; why should she leave the village? Even if she temporarily hid elsewhere, she couldn’t possibly never return, could she?

What right did the people standing at the door have to drive her away?

”The village head is coming, the village head is here.”

”Village head, think of a way quickly. Drive Liu Lili out of the village; otherwise, she’ll disgrace the whole village.”

”This shameless woman cannot live in our village.”

Wang Erlai was a middle-aged man with a stout figure. He heard about Liu Lili from the villagers. He previously had an interest in Liu Lili, but she always refused. He was keen to find an excuse to deal with Liu Lili, but the opportunity never arose.

Today happened to be his chance, and it really seemed like the heavens were watching.

Reaching Liu Lili’s house, Wang Erlai, looking arrogant, said: ”Liu Lili, hiding is useless now. If you don’t clear up this matter, then you will be driven out of the village.” Wang Erlai said.

Even though Liu Lili was covering her ears, the sound wasn’t entirely blocked. Hearing Wang Erlai’s words made Liu Lili feel even more desperate.
