The City’s Strongest Son-in-law

Chapter 975: Chapter 974: Sudden Clarity

But, Su Changfeng didn’t finish speaking. There was another part: if I meet someone unreasonable, I have no choice but to deal with them.

”How’s the company doing recently? Are there any vacancies?” Su Changfeng asked Han Xue.

Han Xue shook her head. Ever since Su Changfeng left, she frequently managed company affairs. But after Sunian was kidnapped, Han Xue lost interest in the company. Lin Qingmeng has been helping to manage it since.

Although Lin Qingmeng is a girl and lacks experience in business, the Shen Family’s status in Jiang City, along with Su Changfeng’s reputation, means no one dares to give her trouble there. The business has been smooth sailing without any serious challenges.

”Why suddenly ask about the company? Do you, a bigwig, want to work for the company now?” Han Xue said, holding Sunian, glancing at Su Changfeng.

”Not really, I want to stay home with you and Sunian more often. Besides, the company doesn’t have much going on, and I might interfere with their work. I was thinking of letting Chen Qingqing go,” Su Changfeng explained.

After all, Chen Qingqing is younger than me. I can’t keep her at home as a servant. Though she’ll follow me in the future, that’s for later. Su Changfeng thinks it’s better for Chen Qingqing to blend into ordinary life and live her own life for now.

Once I join Tuo Shi, Chen Qingqing will undoubtedly follow me, and it’ll be harder for her to experience worldly joys.

”You had it arranged quite well. Alright, I’ll contact Qing Meng later and let her find a position for Chen Qingqing,” Han Xue said.

Seeing the matter settled, Su Changfeng nodded in satisfaction and prepared to visit his old room.

”Changfeng, where are you going now?” Han Xue asked hurriedly as Su Changfeng was about to leave.

”Oh, I suddenly want to check my old bedroom,” Su Changfeng replied. There are two bones stored in that room, though he never quite figured out their significance. When he first arrived in Beijing, he believed there was something valuable and even researched them, but for a long time, no clues emerged.

So Su Changfeng just decided that if he couldn’t figure it out, he’d throw them out. After all, having bones lying around the house feels displeasing.

”Hey, don’t go. Chen Qingqing is now living in your old room. What are you going to look for there? If Chen Qingqing has anything private lying around, it’d be awkward for you to see,” Han Xue reminded hastily.

Upon hearing this, Su Changfeng paused, looking stunned for a few seconds. His gaze seemed to suggest he discovered something, but he quickly controlled himself.

Chen Qingqing, just like him, possesses similar strength inside. Su Changfeng feels there might be an inexplicable connection between him and Chen Qingqing, though it seems unlikely given their few meetings, countable on one hand.

But at this moment, Su Changfeng seemed to have found the answer.

Could it be because of those two bones I picked up?

Both his and Chen Qingqing’s powers come from them.

Despite Su Changfeng finding this amusing, it was the only plausible explanation at the moment.

Maybe everything he saw back then was real, not some switch or mechanism.

If his idea is true, then what are those bones?

Seeing Su Changfeng in a daze, Han Xue asked puzzledly, ”Changfeng, what are you thinking about, lost in thought?”

Awoken by Han Xue’s question, Su Changfeng collected his thoughts and quickly replied, ”I wasn’t thinking about anything.”

However, Han Xue’s face had changed, losing its earlier cheer and showing a sort of blank expression. She said, ”If you want your old room, I’ll ask Chen Qingqing to move out.”

Upon hearing this, Su Changfeng realized this was serious. He had no such intention. Day and night, he yearned to return to Han Xue’s side. After much effort, he’s finally home, how could he sleep separately from Han Xue?

”Honey, I never said I wanted to sleep in that room, don’t misunderstand me,” Su Changfeng hurriedly explained.

Han Xue turned her back, pretending to be angry, and ignored Su Changfeng.

Seeing Han Xue’s attitude, Su Changfeng internally chuckled. Now that his wife was upset, he’d have to coax her.

Finally, everyone was present for dinner. Previously, Su Changfeng was always absent, leaving a feeling of incompleteness. Now that he’s back, everyone’s heart feels good.

”Han Xue, let me take Sunian tonight,” Zhao Xiaona suddenly proposed.

”Sister Zhao, you’ve been busy lately. Take a break. Sunian just returned, I want to hold her while sleeping. Normally she’d be with you, but I’m no longer in postpartum recovery, I can handle it,” Han Xue said. Now that her dear daughter is back, she certainly can’t let go of Sunian.

”Now that Changfeng’s back, I assume you and your husband have much to discuss, so I’ll take her,” Zhao Xiaona said with a grin.

Zhao Xiaona’s words made Han Xue’s face turn crimson. Next to Zhao Xiaona, Chen Qingqing hurriedly lowered her head and ate.

But the others at the table were adults and experienced, so they just smiled.

”Sister Zhao, what nonsense are you talking about?” Han Xue blushed and said.

But Zhao Xiaona felt it was normal and didn’t need to be shy. Moreover, Su Changfeng and Han Xue are deeply in love. Now that he’s back, they’re bound to converse extensively.

”I think Sunian is still young. If there’s any noise, she’ll likely wake up,” Zhao Xiaona added another jab.
