The City's Strongest Son-in-law
Chapter 1229 - 1228: Doubts About His Identity
The servant knelt there in a disheveled state, cold sweat on his forehead, clearly having been kicked hard. Realizing he had said something he shouldn’t have, he quickly kowtowed, "Young master, I was wrong, I was wrong..."
Wang Junyi walked over, looking arrogantly at the kneeling person, and said, "Keep talking."
The servant’s body trembled slightly, reorganized his words, and said, "The Wu Family sent a message saying that person is named Su Changfeng, a genuine waste, completely incomparable to you. With your strength, wanting to get rid of him is a piece of cake."
"Su Changfeng?" A trace of viciousness flashed in Wang Junyi’s eyes. He wished he could pull this guy’s muscles and bones apart, but he had been hiding in the Shen Family, not daring to show his face, so even if he wanted to do something, he had no means.
He also wanted to directly break into the Shen Family, but he was worried that Shen Rushuang would be displeased. Although Wang Junyi was impulsive, he indeed put all his patience on Shen Rushuang.
She was the girl he liked, so naturally, he didn’t want Shen Rushuang to have any bad opinions of him because of a waste.
In Wang Junyi’s eyes, he always believed that sooner or later, Shen Rushuang would see his good side, and she would understand who was most suitable for her. In Tianshui City, only he, Wang Junyi, had the right to be her husband.
"Guard the Shen Family well. As soon as Su Changfeng comes out, immediately inform me!" Wang Junyi instructed.
"Yes." The servant ran away in fear, afraid that Wang Junyi might vent his anger on him again.
Shen Family.
After Su Changfeng killed the Fourth-rank Expert, he submerged the body into the pond. This matter should not be known for now because no one would believe he could kill a Fourth-rank Expert.
At this moment, Su Changfeng felt a bit strange. When he first arrived at the Tuo Shi Forbidden Land, that black hole always gave him a calling feeling, even faintly sensing that there was a connection between this world and him.
Originally, he thought that after coming to the Tianyuan Continent, this abnormal feeling would become stronger, but now he did not feel it at all. The things that could be clearly sensed in the Forbidden Land, why couldn’t he sense them in the Tianyuan Continent?
"Could it be that this summoning feeling was not given by the Tianyuan Continent?" Su Changfeng couldn’t help but frown.
After pondering for a long time, Su Changfeng still didn’t know what was going on, so he simply stopped thinking about it.
He walked to the bed, looking at the Shen Family Mansion before him. The environment of the Tianyuan Continent truly felt like a paradise; it was a place where people could relax and enjoy. Breathing in the fresh air, Su Changfeng regretfully thought that it would be better if Shen Hanxue and Ye Nianhai were by his side.
"Miss, all the items have been checked, and indeed nothing is missing."
In Shen Rushuang’s room, the maid reported the results after checking. She had carefully inspected everything and indeed found nothing missing.
"It seems my so-called husband is a wealthy man with hidden depths!" Shen Rushuang said with a smile.
"Impossible, at that time he didn’t even have money for tea!" the maid said with a curious look.
Shen Rushuang smiled slightly, saying, "That’s why I said he’s a man of hidden depths. He deliberately conceals his wealth, definitely for another purpose. We know very little about his situation. It’s possible he comes from a prominent family, but due to some reason, he ended up here."
The reason Shen Rushuang said this was mainly because she didn’t believe Su Changfeng really had the ability to kill a Fourth-rank Expert. After all, in the small Tianshui City, where would there be experts higher than Fourth-rank? The key was that Su Changfeng’s small arms and legs looked nothing like someone skilled.
"Miss, you mean that man is from a prominent family?" the maid asked in surprise.
Shen Rushuang nodded and continued, "It’s possible. He said he forgets everything, probably just an excuse."
Shen Rushuang was undoubtedly a smart woman, but sometimes, being smart is not necessarily a good thing. Like now, precisely because of her meticulous mind, she deduced such a complex story, which was her habitual way of thinking. When looking at something, she always thought of things very complicatedly, which in turn made her miss the truth.
"Miss, are you still planning to kill him?" the maid asked. If Su Changfeng were a waste, it wouldn’t matter if he lived or died, but now, given that Su Changfeng might come from a prominent family, everything needed to be reconsidered.
Shen Rushuang also hesitated; she had originally thought Su Changfeng was a waste who forgot everything, so it would not matter if he died. But now the situation had changed. If he really came from a prominent family, then Su Changfeng’s life was much more valuable. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦
Shen Rushuang was even considering that if she could keep Su Changfeng firmly in her grasp, he could definitely provide significant assistance to her future plans.
"I’ll get information from him. If he truly is valuable to us, keeping him wouldn’t be a loss." Shen Rushuang said.
The originally scheduled hunting tournament would still proceed, but she shifted from initially planning to kill him to making the decision based on circumstances. Whether Su Changfeng could survive or not depended on whether his life had value.
To Shen Rushuang, Su Changfeng was just a pawn in her hand; his life and death depended entirely on her whim, completely at her discretion.
"Miss is truly smart."
During this time, Su Changfeng stayed in the courtyard for quite a while, indeed feeling somewhat exasperated. Despite the Shen Family’s courtyard being enormous, the feeling of being restricted in freedom was not pleasant.
Most importantly, he had come here with a purpose. If he kept hiding in the Shen Family, when would he be able to resolve the crisis of Tuo Shi and go home?
And Chen Qingqing, since he had been here for so long, he still had no news about Chen Qingqing. He really wasn’t willing to sit and wait for death.
"Looks like it’s time to meet Wang Junyi. Hiding forever is not an option either!" Su Changfeng couldn’t help but sigh. Although he didn’t want to make a big scene, the situation was pressing, and he had no better plan.
Just as he reached the main gate, Shen Rushuang’s maid rushed out and stopped Su Changfeng.
"Don’t you remember what I said before? Outside the Shen Family are all Wang Junyi’s people. If you go out, do you know what the consequences are?" the maid said with a cold expression, looking at Su Changfeng.
Even though Su Changfeng was Shen Rushuang’s husband, the people in the Shen Family Mansion never regarded him. His status was even inferior to that of ordinary servants.
Even passing servants could give Su Changfeng a cold face, let alone Shen Rushuang’s trusted maid.
"I just wanted to go outside for some fresh air." Su Changfeng explained.
"Fresh air?" The maid sneered at Su Changfeng and said, "Nothing wrong with that, but if you lose your life because of it, it’s not worth the loss."
"Impossible, Wang Junyi, although the son of the City Lord, wouldn’t kill casually, would he?" Su Changfeng asked.
