The City's Strongest Son-in-law-Chapter 242: Women Are Just Like This
Chapter 242: Chapter 242: Women Are Just Like This
The words were blatant boasting, making Tang Qiulu speechless. At this moment, Su Changfeng arrived home, surprising Tang Qiulu. He was supposed to be at Qian Xiang’s party, so why was he back now?
"Let’s not chat for now, cousin. We’ll talk later when we return." Tang Qiulu said.
"Alright, you guys come back soon, stay a few more days at our hometown if there’s nothing else. Bin County is quite different now, with many interesting places." Sun Wan said with a proud smile, believing Tang Qiulu was definitely envious, hence unwilling to speak much with her.
Even after Tang Qiulu returns to Bin County, there would still be other opportunities to flaunt, so Sun Wan was in no rush.
After hanging up, Zhou Haiwen beside Sun Wan said, "I have loved competing with Tang Qiulu since childhood, but now that I have met you, Tang Qiulu will never be able to outdo me in her lifetime."
After finishing her words, Sun Wan snuggled into Zhou Haiwen’s arms.
Zhou Haiwen had heard Sun Wan mention Tang Family’s matters often, especially about that coward named Su Changfeng. Whenever he was mentioned, Zhou Haiwen would laugh to the point of tears.
"Your cousin marrying this coward means she can’t possibly compete with you. Don’t worry, when they all come here, I will definitely make you feel proud, and also let your cousin see the difference between you two." Zhou Haiwen laughed.
"Yes, but still, she’s my cousin, so it’s best to leave her some dignity. It’s just unclear whether Su Changfeng will come back this time. If he returns, you don’t need to leave him any dignity; he doesn’t need it anyway." Sun Wan said.
Zhou Haiwen nodded proudly, looking like a promising young entrepreneur, having started his own business and transformed into a boss.
Although the company wasn’t large, the annual profits were quite substantial, surely enough to outshine Su Changfeng, the coward.
Tang Qiulu had more or less guessed Sun Wan’s intentions and anticipated the events upon arriving in Bin County, but she didn’t care.
Approaching Su Changfeng, she asked, "Why are you back now? Didn’t you attend the party?"
"I went, but it wasn’t very interesting, so I came back." Su Changfeng wouldn’t tell Tang Qiulu about what happened.
As Tang Qiulu had intended for him to attend, making friends with some people, it was apparent he hadn’t made any friends, possibly even gained enemies instead.
"How can that be? The party organized by someone like Qian Xiang, a rich kid, must have been attended by many noble family heirs, and there should be many beauties there too, right?" Tang Qiulu said.
Women are just like this!
Su Changfeng detected a hint of sarcasm in Tang Qiulu’s words, but she was the one who had initially suggested he go.
"Well... I don’t know." Su Changfeng said.
At this moment, Sun Mei hung up the phone, somewhat displeased, saying, "All those relatives from the hometown kept calling, but your uncle didn’t make a single call, really infuriating."
Sun Fada’s family borrowed 200,000 yuan before, but the money hadn’t even warmed their hands before disappearing. Their whole family hadn’t gotten over this matter, and certainly wouldn’t call Sun Mei.
Although they hadn’t planned on repaying the money at the time, they were still worried Sun Mei would bring it up.
"Mom, you are quite aware of uncle’s family’s character, probably hoping this time you don’t return, fearing once you return, you’d ask them to repay." Tang Qiulu said.
Sun Mei understood this too, even though their family was wealthy now, that 200,000 wasn’t much. Yet whenever she thought about borrowing 200,000 to make a point, she still felt a little suffocated. freёnovelkiss.com
"No, this year during the Dragon Boat Festival, if there’s an opportunity, I’ll make their family return the money, a full 200,000." Sun Mei said.
Su Changfeng laughed, knowing Sun Fada’s family was particularly shameless, trying to get a coward to pay back? It was undoubtedly wishful thinking.
Thankfully, this 200,000 yuan wasn’t spent by their family, making it somewhat acceptable to Su Changfeng.
"I’m going to take a rest now." Tang Qiulu wasn’t willing to worry about these matters; she had been busy enough as it was.
Su Changfeng noticed a hint of fatigue in Tang Qiulu’s brow and asked, "Did something happen? Was Tang Xiangdong giving you trouble?"
"It’s not him, not to mention he does not have the guts to bother me right now. It’s the manufacturers we’re collaborating with; they’ve had some minor issues these few days, but it’s nothing serious; I can handle it." Tang Qiulu said.
Upon hearing this, Su Changfeng decided not to ask further. After all, Tang Qiulu must grow up herself and can’t rely on him to solve everything.
Early the next morning, after their jog, Tang Qiulu didn’t let Su Changfeng take her to the Group, so he stayed home alone.
Although Liu Lili had been handling the household chores recently, Su Changfeng had nothing to do, and would still do some chores.
Entering the room, he noticed the bedsheet needed to be changed, and only then did he see that the red thread was missing!
Had the bedsheet been changed before?
Su Changfeng was a bit uncertain, but he proceeded to do something that would particularly unsettle Tang Qiulu.
To prevent Tang Qiulu from thinking about it, Su Changfeng personally threaded a needle and then put the red thread back!
Who knows how Tang Qiulu would feel upon seeing this situation when she returns?
Tang Group.
Tang Qiulu had just entered her office when Tang Xiangdong, the chairman, hurriedly arrived, entering without knocking.
"Tang Qiulu, haven’t you resolved the manufacturer’s issues yet? It’s urgent now; West District is still waiting for construction materials. Do you realize what delaying a day’s construction would mean for our company? Tang Xiangdong asked in an accusatory tone.
The issues with the manufacturers were actually due to money; those manufacturers felt Tang Family could make substantial profits from the West District project, and they were certainly hoping to take the opportunity to earn more.
However, maintaining the West District project required enormous funds, and if manufacturers now increase prices, it would be quite an expense for Tang Family.
Furthermore, if they agreed to the price increase this time, it would definitely lead to a second increase in the future, and possibly a third or more. Tang Qiulu had been troubled by this matter for several days.
"I have scheduled a meeting with the manufacturers’ general managers for this afternoon, hoping everything will go smoothly." Tang Qiulu said.
"Hope?" Tang Xiangdong scoffed, "Tang Qiulu, if you approach it with that attitude, there’s no way you can negotiate successfully. I’m telling you; they are a bunch of bloodsuckers. No matter what, not a penny more should be given; the rest, you figure out yourself."
Tang Qiulu spoke calmly, "Now the chairman of the Group is you, so we’ll certainly do as you say. But if those people refuse to cooperate with the Group, then you’ll have to find a way yourself."
