The City's Strongest Son-in-law
Chapter 1221 - 1220: First Arrival in the Otherworld
At this moment, Su Changfeng found himself within the Space Tunnel, feeling the pressure wrapping tightly around him as though he were being compressed into a ball. At a certain instant, the pressure dissipated entirely, and before he could catch his breath, he fainted.
When he opened his eyes again, he realized he was in a completely different environment, wearing a bright red robe that looked auspicious, unlike anything modern people would wear. It felt as if he had traveled back to ancient times.
Nearby stood a person-height bronze mirror. Frowning, he walked over and saw clearly that the clothes he was wearing resembled ancient wedding attire.
After being stunned for a while, Su Changfeng couldn’t figure out what was going on. He was just about to go out and find someone to ask when the door was suddenly pushed open, and a woman wearing a phoenix crown and a wedding dress walked in.
When the woman saw Su Changfeng, a look of surprise flashed across her eyes, quickly replaced by overwhelming anger.
"You’re awake? You actually woke up!" The woman glared at Su Changfeng, her face looking as if she had seen a mortal enemy, filled with the urge to tear him apart.
Su Changfeng wore a bewildered expression. He roughly guessed that he had arrived in the Outer Domain, but as for why he was in this room, dressed in wedding clothes, and facing a woman full of rage, he was completely at a loss.
"Who are you?" Su Changfeng scrutinized her.
The woman didn’t answer him directly, instead walked over and raised her hand, slapping Su Changfeng.
Su Changfeng was taken aback by the slap, his confusion growing even further. The hatred on her face was unrestrained, making him suspect he might have wronged her somehow, otherwise, what was going on here?
"I only need a useless person, who let you wake up?" The woman ground her teeth in anger, and it seemed Su Changfeng waking up was extremely unacceptable to her.
After she finished speaking, she prepared to slap Su Changfeng again, but he swiftly caught her hand.
He’s not one to be bullied, and though he hasn’t figured out what’s going on yet, he’s not going to stand there and let himself be beaten.
Even though the woman was very attractive, Su Changfeng already had someone in his heart and would certainly not allow her to act recklessly.
"What is this place, and why am I dressed like this? Who are you?" Su Changfeng asked.
The woman struggled, trying to break free, but was surprised to realize how strong this man was, her mind stirred.
"I’m telling you, stay here obediently, without my permission, you cannot go anywhere! Otherwise, I definitely won’t let you off easily!" The woman warned, looking imperious.
"Alright, I promise you, but you must tell me where this is, and why I’m dressed like this?" Su Changfeng said.
"Let go, someone will come and inform you shortly, and will tell you what you need to do during this period." The woman said.
Su Changfeng released his grip, and the woman left without looking back.
Su Changfeng examined the reflection in the mirror, feeling vaguely uneasy. This attire, it should be for a wedding, right? But he just arrived here, why would he be getting married?
Moreover, he had just awakened, what exactly had happened before, how did he end up here all of a sudden?
Before he could find any answers, countless questions flooded into Su Changfeng’s mind. Just then, he heard footsteps outside, and then the door was pushed open again. This time, a woman dressed as a maid entered.
"Miss instructed me to come over, if you want to ask anything, ask away." The maid said.
Judging by their clothing, Su Changfeng couldn’t help but suspect that this place might be akin to an ancient world similar to his own. Thinking of this, he felt a bit curious about what the outside might be like.
But while everything was still uncertain, Su Changfeng decided not to act rashly, as this place was entirely unfamiliar to him. If he slipped up, he would be in danger.
"How long have I been unconscious?" Su Changfeng tentatively asked.
"Three months." The maid replied.
"What? Three months!" Su Changfeng’s eyes were about to pop out. Three months? No way! It felt like only a day to him.
"The miss originally thought you would never wake up." The maid explained.
Su Changfeng took several deep breaths to regain his composure from the shock and then asked, "Why am I dressed like this?"
"Today is your and miss’s wedding day." The maid said.
Su Changfeng paused in surprise, his guess was correct, wedding day?
However, he couldn’t understand; was there something wrong with her? Why would she agree to marry someone who didn’t know when they would wake up? Does she have some issues?
"Your miss originally thought I would never wake up, right? So why would she be willing to marry me?" Su Changfeng asked, puzzled.
"Compared to marrying a man she doesn’t like, my miss would rather choose someone like you, who she sees as useless." The maid said expressionlessly.
Uh...
Su Changfeng’s mouth twitched, what kind of twisted logic is this? But from her words, he began to understand that this woman was clearly using him as a decoy, and the purpose should be quite simple.
Just like in those dramas, because parents or elders want her to marry a certain person, but she doesn’t want to, so she’s come up with this bizarre idea.
Thinking of this, Su Changfeng suddenly held his head, looking very pained.
"It hurts, why does my head hurt so much?" 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮
The maid wore a nonchalant expression, as the miss would rather he had died than woken up, so whether Su Changfeng was in pain didn’t concern her.
"I, I seem to have forgotten many things. Can you tell me, where did you find me back then? And what place is this?" Su Changfeng asked.
"This is Tianshui City, Shen Family." Since the miss had instructed her, the maid answered Su Changfeng’s questions.
"You were found outside Tianshui City, looking very disheveled, and unconscious since that time."
"Was there anyone else with me?" Su Changfeng continued to ask.
"No." The maid replied.
No one else? Then where is Chen Qingqing? Could it be that they got separated upon arriving in the Outer Domain because they weren’t together in the Space Tunnel?
Thinking of this possibility, Su Changfeng couldn’t help but feel worried, no matter what, Chen Qingqing was a young woman, and he had no idea how she was doing now.
"Do you have any other questions?" Seeing Su Changfeng frowning without speaking, the maid asked.
"No more, you may leave. My head hurts a bit, I want to rest." Su Changfeng said.
The maid nodded, said nothing more, and left the room directly.
