The City’s Strongest Son-in-law

Actually, Wu Feng was quite aware of Zhao Yijun’s actions and the forces backing him, but he didn’t have the chance to tell Su Changfeng yesterday.

”Boss, did you really do it?” Wu Feng’s expression was very serious, indicating that he, too, hadn’t rested well last night.

Just then, the phone in his pocket suddenly rang.

Looking at the number on the screen, he took a deep breath and answered the call.

”What’s the situation?”

”Zhao Yijun is dead.”

Upon hearing this, Wu Feng found it hard to believe yet somehow inevitable. He had long understood that if Su Changfeng could say such things, he would naturally take action.

However, what shocked him was that Su Changfeng actually killed Zhao Yijun, and very successfully at that.

This young boss of his seemed completely different from before.

He had never been to the company, yet he managed to connect with Wei Guanglin. Now, he’s stirring up such a commotion in the Capital City. Surely the incident with Zhao Yijun will shake up the city’s landscape.

”Wu Feng, what’s wrong?”

”Ah? It’s nothing, nothing.” Wu Feng snapped back to reality and quickly replied.

”Why are you suddenly inquiring about Zhao Yijun’s situation? Do you happen to know something? Or, does this matter actually involve you?” The person on the other end asked curiously.

”Don’t make wild guesses. I’ll tell you what you need to know eventually. I have matters to attend to now, so I can’t talk. By the way, one last piece of advice: you better keep things low-key for a while. The Capital City is likely about to change.”

With that, Wu Feng hung up the call, tidied up a bit, and then headed to the company.

The Zhou Family is one of the three major families in the Capital City, and its influence in the city is naturally unquestionable.

As a family with generations involved in commerce, the Zhou Family has always been seen as very clean in the eyes of others, but in reality, their means aren’t only used in business; they also have complex relationships with the underworld.

The Zhou Family is one of the older, more established families. It’s unlikely that such a family is entirely clean. Back then, the prevailing truth was that strength ruled; as long as your fists were hard enough, you could carve out your own world, so the Zhou Family undoubtedly has deep ties to some gray areas.

At this moment, almost everyone was present in the old residence of the Zhou Family, and everyone’s expressions were grim, as if something significant had happened.

Zhou Wang is the authority figure in the Zhou Family, now reaching a hundred years old, and holds a high level of prestige within the family.

Despite his advanced age, Zhou Wang’s health and spirit are still robust, and no one sees him as too old to uphold the responsibilities of the family.

However, Zhou Wang indeed holds no real power in his hands; he had long passed on the responsibilities of the family to the younger generation, but as the founder of the family, he still wields significant influence within it.

There’s even a saying that as long as Zhou Wang is alive, the Zhou Family will not fall into disorder. This alone shows that Zhou Wang’s influence in the family is extraordinary.

”Family Head, this matter seems to be intentionally aimed at our Zhou Family,” Zhou Yunqi said. As the most capable among the younger generation of the Zhou Family, his influence within the family is considerable, and even Zhou Wang is quite fond of this descendant. The future Family Head might just end up being him.

”You say this matter is deliberately targeting our Zhou Family, yet after all this time, why is there still no clue?” Zhou Wang said coldly.

Though Zhou Yunqi is a junior held in high regard by him, Zhou Wang didn’t spare him any face.

In Zhou Wang’s eyes, no one and nothing are more important than the future and the status of the Zhou Family, at least not as long as he is alive will he allow anyone to destroy these things.

”Are you all incompetent? Or did you not take this matter seriously at all?” Zhou Wang questioned harshly.

Everyone fell silent, with many lacking the courage to meet Zhou Wang’s gaze. Zhou Wang’s aura was too terrifying, and no one dared to stand out at this moment.

”Could it be that someone intends to use this incident to stir some trouble?” Zhou Wang continued.

The people of the Zhou Family were well aware that as long as Zhou Wang was alive, they couldn’t act recklessly. Otherwise, it would ultimately be them who would suffer, and they could even be directly expelled from the family.

Therefore, even if they were eager to gain real power, they definitely didn’t have the courage to make moves behind his back, as it would be impossible to hide anything from Zhou Wang that happened in the family. No one but Zhou Wang knew how many spies he had arranged throughout the Capital City.

”Family Head, this matter really has nothing to do with anyone internally, I honestly didn’t know about it beforehand,” Zhou Yunqi said hurriedly.

Hearing his words, the rest of the people quickly echoed the sentiment.

”Family Head, this matter has nothing to do with me either; I just found out.”

”Family Head, you must believe me; how could I possibly do anything to betray the Zhou Family?”

”That’s right, I don’t know anything either...”

Seeing everyone trying to clear themselves of suspicion, a trace of impatience flashed in Zhou Wang’s eyes; a bunch of timid fools. If someone actually admitted it at this moment, Zhou Wang might even admire their courage.

Unfortunately, no one stepped forward from start to finish.

However, perhaps this time, indeed, none of the family members were involved, and it was someone from outside purposefully targeting their family.

Just then, an elderly man walked in from outside and directly approached Zhou Wang. From his steps, it was clear that he was quite skilled.

”Family Head, someone is outside wishing to see you,” the elder said.

The people present couldn’t help but glance at the elder. The Zhou Family members all knew that his identity was very special. Over the years, he had been like a shadow, always with Zhou Wang, handling countless assassinations and acts of revenge for him.

Previously, people heard that the elder’s skills surpassed common imagination, almost making him the top figure in the Capital City’s Martial Arts World.

As for whether it’s true or not, outsiders wouldn’t know.

”Who are they?” Zhou Wang asked.

”A teenager, seeking a meeting with you. I find it very suspicious,” the elder said.

Zhou Wang and the elder had accompanied each other for so many years, and if it were just an ordinary person, the elder would definitely not report it to him.

”Since you’ve mentioned it, it must be worth meeting them,” Zhou Wang said.

The elder nodded silently, and it wasn’t long before he brought the person in. It turned out to be Su Changfeng.

Having inexplicably killed the Zhou Family’s puppet, Zhao Yijun, and daringly coming to the Zhou Family, what exactly was Su Changfeng’s plan? It was truly unpredictable.
