The City's Strongest Son-in-law-Chapter 314 - 315: Hesitant Old Master of the Gu Family
Chapter 314: Chapter 315: Hesitant Old Master of the Gu Family
Liu Chen was taken aback when Su Changfeng suddenly asked this. Could he really be thinking of changing his mind?
But... with the weight these guys carry, Su Changfeng would never compromise, right?
"Next month," Liu Chen said.
It’s mid-month now, and next month is about 10 days away. However, during these 10 days, Su Changfeng can’t guarantee that Dao Jiu will contact Purgatory.
If Purgatory shows up during the competition, things might get tricky.
"I can think about it, and see if I have enough time, if I do, I’ll go," Su Changfeng said.
Liu Chen was stunned, did Su Changfeng really agree to go?
And the association members were all grinning with satisfaction as they heard Su Changfeng’s words. In their eyes, the pressure they put on Tang Qiulu yesterday had worked; a waste is truly a waste, and he calmed down as soon as Tang Qiulu spoke.
"That’s the right thing to do."
"There’s no need to provoke us, it’s not good for your Tang Family."
"Seems like you listen to your wife quite well, living up to your reputation."
The members had no reservations in their ridicule of Su Changfeng, but Su Changfeng’s face was full of cold smiles. If it weren’t for proving something to Tang Qiulu, he wouldn’t even glance at this competition.
"This matter has nothing to do with you, but I’ll remind you, if you dare trouble Tang Qiulu again, don’t blame me for being ruthless!" Su Changfeng said coldly.
"Alright, alright, everyone knows, you’re a man, definitely care about your face."
"If you help the association win the competition, so what if we give you some face?"
"But if you lose, that’s unacceptable. Huangfu Heibai is already stirring things up; he must have some preparation, you need to be careful.
Su Changfeng looked at their ugly faces; first forcing him to compete, now saying he can’t lose? Truly a bunch of shameless old fools.
But losing seems difficult to Su Changfeng.
Although Sima Chenguang is Huangfu Heibai’s disciple and a future master of the Go Community, in Su Changfeng’s eyes, he’s unworthy as an opponent.
After Su Changfeng left, the members were still there, smugly boasting, but Liu Chen couldn’t stand hearing their bragging any longer and immediately returned to his office to contact Gu Changsheng.
Because this sudden event had Liu Chen wondering what’s really going on, maybe he misunderstood Su Changfeng.
"He agreed? After Gu Changsheng answered the phone, he was equally surprised; could Su Changfeng really change his mind?
"That’s right, I’m calling to ask what happened, maybe Su Changfeng isn’t like you said before?" Liu Chen asked puzzledly.
Gu Changsheng’s guess about Su Changfeng’s identity would never be wrong, Ji Hong and Shangguan Feihong personally visited the Mountain Villa at Xianwu Mountain.
"Impossible, I’m certain about this." Gu Changsheng said.
"Then it’s hard to explain; those guys threatened Tang Qiulu yesterday, if Su Changfeng is really that formidable, he wouldn’t just compromise like this." Liu Chen said.
Upon hearing the name Tang Qiulu, Gu Changsheng immediately laughed.
"Why are you laughing?" Liu Chen asked.
"You don’t need to overthink, now that the event involves Tang Qiulu, it makes sense. For the past three years, Su Changfeng hasn’t cared about his reputation; everything is because of Tang Qiulu. Maybe Su Changfeng has other plans,"
"But you’d better warn those guys in the association. I’m letting them off this time because they didn’t cross Su Changfeng’s bottom line. If they don’t know what’s good for them, no one can save them." Gu Changsheng said.
"Eh, I don’t want to think about it; as long as he’s willing to compete, that’s fine." Liu Chen sighed.
These thoughts are pointless, and it’s not much of his business anyway, so he might as well spend his time playing a few more games of Go.
After hanging up the phone, Gu Changsheng reflected, the more Su Changfeng tolerated for Tang Qiulu, the less chance Gu Qing’er has.
Actually, Gu Changsheng had known this from the start, but he still held a bit of luck and fantasy in his heart. But after this event, Gu Changsheng fully realized that no matter how Gu Qing’er tries, it’s all in vain.
"Ah, my poor granddaughter, you’ve really fallen hard this time." Gu Changsheng mumbled.
"Grandpa, what are you talking about by yourself?" Gu Qing’er came over looking dejected.
Gu Changsheng quickly shook his head and said, "Nothing, why aren’t you in class again?"
Gu Qing’er was completely preoccupied with Su Changfeng; how could she be in the mood for school? "I don’t want to go, nor to school; I don’t want to do anything, it’s the end of the world now."
Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but smile bitterly, if she thinks it’s the end now, he wonders what she’ll be like when she understands the truth.
"Surely there’s no one at your school who likes you?" Gu Changsheng curiously asked.
"Of course, there are plenty who like me, but those people can’t compare with Su Changfeng; they’re all like little kids." Gu Qing’er pouted.
"Su Changfeng isn’t that great; you should find a man better than him, it’s not that difficult." Gu Changsheng intended to steer Gu Qing’er away from focusing on Su Changfeng, but his plan seemed unachievable.
Gu Qing’er had set her mind; unless she recognized the situation, she wouldn’t turn back.
"Grandpa, you were supporting me all along, have you taken the wrong medication?" Gu Qing’er asked confusedly.
This was a chance for Gu Changsheng to clarify things and have Gu Qing’er give up.
But Gu Qing’er was Gu Changsheng’s most beloved granddaughter, and he couldn’t bear to say these things to her now.
Gu Changsheng hesitated, reluctant to speak.
"I certainly support you, just don’t want to see you so downcast every day." Gu Changsheng said.
"Grandpa." Gu Qing’er came beside Gu Changsheng, even offering to massage his shoulders, but her eyes were darting around.
Gu Changsheng felt uncomfortable; Gu Qing’er suddenly treating him so well meant she wanted something, and it probably wasn’t good.
"Ahem, my dear granddaughter, tell me what you want, you’re making me uncomfortable with your sudden change," Gu Changsheng awkwardly said, rubbing his nose.
"Well, Grandpa, it’s actually really simple to make me happy, it depends on whether you’re willing," Gu Qing’er said.
