The City’s Strongest Son-in-law

Chapter 896: Chapter 895: Drawing the Sword for the Sake of Justice

Su Changfeng noticed this carefully, but he didn’t directly bring this issue to light, because doing so would not only hurt Lu Qingqing’s self-esteem, but more importantly, it wouldn’t be very effective.

The best way is to let Lu Qingqing have the courage to face anything, and this is not something that can be resolved in an instant or with a few words.

”Tell me about your family’s situation!” Su Changfeng deliberately asked Lu Qingqing.

When Lu Qingqing heard Su Changfeng mention her family, her expression suddenly turned cold, and her gaze seemed to be mixed with deep pain.

”In my memory, my family was quite well off. My father was once in the real estate business, and the three of us were living a happy life. Suddenly one day, after dinner, we went for a walk, and someone, drunk-driving, steered their car onto the sidewalk. If my dad hadn’t used his strength to push me aside at that time, I might have lost my life on the spot.” Lu Qingqing spoke with a pained expression, as if she had returned to that scene from years ago.

Hearing Lu Qingqing’s words, Su Changfeng couldn’t help but feel some sympathy for this girl, who at such a young age, watched her parents leave this world. It’s cruel for anyone.

”I still remember my dad’s forehead was bleeding continuously, my mom slowly stopped breathing, but I used all my strength to call out, hoping someone would come to save us. Yet, the people around were cold and indifferent, as if nothing had happened in front of them. I tried to save them, only to find nothing I did could change things. I watched them die right before my eyes.” Lu Qingqing said, tears slipped out as she recounted these painful memories.

Seeing Lu Qingqing struggling in her painful memories, Su Changfeng gently held her, trying to give her some warmth and let her feel the kindness in this world.

Lu Qingqing’s hand suddenly felt the warmth; it was a warmth that made her unwilling to push this man in front of her away. She continued to muster up the courage: ”Later, the ambulance finally arrived, but before my parents reached the hospital, they were already no longer breathing. The morning after the accident, the killer showed up, but he didn’t show any guilt. Instead, shamelessly, he offered me some money or other material things. But how could I agree to that? I resolutely refused him, but the matter didn’t end there. That murderer’s son came to me afterward, and this time he didn’t offer money, he threatened me instead, warning that if I spoke a word about this incident, he would have me killed, ensuring I wouldn’t see the next day’s sun.”

When Lu Qingqing spoke about these two people, her eyes were filled with hatred. Her grip on Su Changfeng’s hand tightened.

”Hearing that, I was extremely frightened, afraid to sleep at night, afraid to go out alone in the day. I feared he might really kill me. I was in despair, unsure what to do. But he never stopped intimidating me. At that time, exhausted and with no other choice, I had to agree to settle privately. Yet, when that beastly son faced me, he made an outrageous demand, wanting me to be his woman. If I didn’t agree, he wouldn’t give me a dime. Even though I was young and naive then, I didn’t agree. So he walked away with the money and told me if I wanted money, I should contact him.”

Listening to Lu Qingqing’s story, the always gentle Su Changfeng frowned with a strong aura of anger surrounding him.

”Qingqing, look, the meal is ready. Let’s eat first, we can talk about other things later,” Su Changfeng said, controlling his temper.

But having just broached the painful topic, Lu Qingqing had lost all appetite for breakfast. At that moment, she was too consumed with thoughts of revenge to bother eating.

”Brother Changfeng, I am reluctant to mingle with those hooligans, but heaven gave me no choice!” Lu Qingqing said helplessly.

”Eat first, you need energy to seek revenge. Don’t you agree?” Su Changfeng kindly advised.

Yes, indeed, you can’t fight on an empty stomach; without food and drink, everything is just talk.

Lu Qingqing suddenly looked up at Su Changfeng, her eyes filled with hope, asking, ”Brother Changfeng, are you willing to help me find them and avenge me?”

”Well, let me be the hero this time,” Su Changfeng replied to Lu Qingqing with a smile.

Hearing Su Changfeng say this, Lu Qingqing was dumbfounded. She couldn’t have imagined it. She had only followed Su Changfeng with the thought of trying her luck, never expecting him to genuinely offer her help.

After all, in Lu Qingqing’s eyes, Su Changfeng was incredibly wealthy, beyond her understanding of the rich. She knew well that there wasn’t much connection between her and Su Changfeng, so how could he be persuaded so easily? This is why Lu Qingqing was so moved.

”Alright, put away that grateful look of yours. If you don’t eat breakfast soon it’ll be cold. You’d better perform well, or I might change my mind at any time!” Su Changfeng joked.

Lu Qingqing laughed happily, quickly picking up her chopsticks to eat.

”Don’t eat so fast, no one is snatching from you, slow down.” Su Changfeng commented as he watched Lu Qingqing devouring her food.

Lu Qingqing gulped down a bowl of porridge without leaving a drop. Although the porridge was very hot, compared to her hatred, drinking a bowl of hot porridge was nothing. As long as it enabled her to avenge, what did it matter what she drank?

After they finished breakfast, Su Changfeng continued to ask, ”Do you know your enemy’s place of origin?”

Hearing Su Changfeng’s words, Lu Qingqing exclaimed with joy, ”Brother Changfeng, are you planning to help me get revenge right now?”

”What? Are you going to back out now?” Su Changfeng turned his head and asked Lu Qingqing.

Lu Qingqing indeed was very surprised, she hadn’t prepared for this. Though she knew Brother Changfeng would help her with revenge, she wasn’t confident that Su Changfeng could truly assist her, considering her enemy was a wealthy and powerful man. Even though she knew Su Changfeng’s family was rich too, going straight to revenge like this left Lu Qingqing very uneasy.
