"This..."
Su Jiancheng glanced at the A4 paper and hesitated, "This information was sent by Wenchao. Perhaps he deliberately gave us false information to scare us." Laughing Arrogantly Literature
Self-deception!
This was all Su Jiancheng could do now.
Su Wenchao was Su Jianguo's son and Su Muqiu's cousin. It was said that he had personally asked someone to investigate those prisoners in Qingcheng No.4 Prison and finally chosen Xiao Zhan.
"I was really blind to have married a wimp like you!"
Liu Hongxiu almost fainted from anger at Su Jiancheng. She scolded more and more fiercely with tears streaming down her face.
Su Muqiu sat silently beside her, not saying a word. Her whole body seemed to have lost its soul, but couldn't stop trembling slightly. Su Jiancheng saw it and felt heartbroken. He gripped his numb thighs tightly, in excruciating pain.
"Mom, stop scolding. It's useless."
After a moment, Su Muqiu took a deep breath and gritted her teeth, "This is my fate. I accept it! It's just an engagement, no big deal!"
"Muqiu, you..."
Liu Hongxiu wanted to say something but stopped, with her heart twisting like a knife.
Five years ago she had a child out of wedlock, which had already put too much pressure on Su Muqiu and subjected her to too many cold eyes. Only she, as the mother, knew how Su Muqiu survived these five years.
In front of others, Su Muqiu always appeared very strong. But in the dead of night, she would hide alone in her room and cry quietly.
With the passage of time, the matter of having a child out of wedlock had gradually faded. The family's life was back on track. Su Muqiu had achieved outstanding results in her two years of work at Su Group, thanks to her extraordinary ability.
But just at this moment, a sudden blow came down!
This was forcing Su Muqiu to the brink of death!
The stronger Su Muqiu appeared, the more heartbroken Liu Hongxiu felt.
"Mom, where's Mengmeng?"
Su Muqiu forced a smile to change the subject. Only when talking about her daughter could she smile.
"Playing at the hotel entrance."
Liu Hongxiu wiped her tears and sighed, "Mengmeng is still young. Such occasions are not suitable for her to participate in. I'm afraid it will leave a psychological shadow on her."
"Well."
Su Muqiu nodded in agreement.
Just then, the door of the private room was suddenly pushed open. Su Wenchao appeared at the door and glanced inside. Seeing Su Muqiu's family of three with tearful and swollen eyes, he immediately smiled smugly and said sarcastically, "Oh, today is my cousin's big happy day. Why are Uncle and Auntie crying? Too happy?"
"You!"
Liu Hongxiu glared fiercely at Su Wenchao and gritted her teeth to spit out one word, "Get lost!"
"Auntie, what's with this attitude?"
Su Wenchao pretended to be wronged, putting on a stern face and shouting, "I went through a lot of trouble asking friends in Qingcheng No.4 Prison to investigate for a long time before selecting such an excellent husband for my cousin. I'm like a matchmaker for my cousin and brother-in-law. Not only are you not grateful to me, but you ask me to get lost? This doesn't seem appropriate, does it?"
A villain reveling in others' misfortune with the intention to kick them when they were down!
"I'm going to strangle you to death!"
Liu Hongxiu, who was already full of righteous indignation, couldn't stand Su Wenchao's provocation. In a flush of rage, disregarding everything, she turned and threw herself at Su Wenchao, reaching to strangle his neck and scratching and clawing him all over.
"Mom!"
Su Muqiu jumped up to stop her but was a step too late.
"Get lost!"
Su Wenchao waved his big hand and pushed Liu Hongxiu away. Liu Hongxiu lost her footing and staggered back several steps before landing on her butt on the cold floor.
Looking down at the gnashing Liu Hongxiu, Su Wenchao straightened his crooked tie with one hand while sneering, "Grandpa asked me to inform you that the groom has left prison and is on his way to the hotel. He wants your family of three to go to the hotel lobby for the engagement ceremony later..."
"Su Wenchao, you bastard!"
Su Muqiu rushed over to help Liu Hongxiu up and yelled at Su Wenchao.
"Bastard?"
Meeting Su Muqiu's icy gaze, Su Wenchao was not angry at all, but smiled even more brilliantly and arrogantly said, "It's still my cousin who understands me best. That's right, I'm a bastard. So what? Want to come over and bite me? "
"You!"
Su Muqiu was murderous.
"Get angrier, angrier. I just love seeing your family of three hating me to the bone yet unable to do anything about it. Hahaha, hahahaha..."
Su Wenchao left amid unbridled laughter, "My cousin is very capable at work, isn't she? She has brought in several big deals for the group in succession, hasn't she? After marrying a rapist, let's see who still dares to cooperate with you!"
Su Muqiu finally could not hold back her tears that she had endured until now. They rolled down her cheeks, wetting her fair skin.
She knew very well that it was precisely because of her excellent performance at Su Group these two years that Su Wenchao felt threatened. He was worried that Grandpa would value her abilities and change his attitude towards her. So he stabbed her in the back, slandered her, and urged Grandpa to hastily arrange this engagement for her...

Outside Junhuang Hotel
A dark green Jeep slowly pulled over. The middle-aged general who drove asked, "Wolf King, do you want me to surround the entire hotel with troops?"
"Why would the Wolf King personally deal with a bunch of ants?"
Xiao Zhan shook his head.
"Remember, I'm officially retired now. I'm not the so-called North Border Wolf King anymore. This is my personal matter. You don't need to get involved. This is a downtown area. If you send troops here, you'll cause panic."
After speaking, he got out of the car.
"I..."
The middle-aged general's face sank and he said firmly, "No matter when or where, the eighty-one brothers of the Blood Wolf Group are all wolf cubs trained by the Wolf King himself. We only look up to the Wolf King!"
His voice was sonorous and neither servile nor overbearing!
"Get lost. If I need anything, I'll contact you myself." Xiao Zhan strode towards the Junhuang Hotel across the street without looking back, just waving his hand.
"Yes!"
The middle-aged general stepped on the gas and the Jeep quickly disappeared around the corner.
Luxury cars were parked in rows on both sides of the grand hotel entrance.
Xiao Zhan walked straight to the hotel entrance, about to go in, when his footsteps suddenly halted. His ears twitched as he vaguely heard anxious crying and shouting, "Get out of the way, you villains! I'm going to find Mom and have her punish you..."
It was a little girl's voice.
Find Mom?
Xiao Zhan's heart skipped a beat when he heard this name, as if being hit hard by something. His face instantly darkened, cold as ice!
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
Cheng's father told him he was getting remarried—to a wealthy woman. Cao Cheng realized his time had finally come: he was about to become a second-generation rich kid. Sure, it might be a watered-down version, but hey, at least he'd have status now, right? The wealthy woman also had four daughters!! Which meant, starting today, Cao Cheng gained four stunning older sisters?? But that wasn't even the whole story... "My name is Cao Cheng—'Cheng' as in 'honest, smooth-talking gentleman'!"
mance] After transmigrating for eighteen years, Lin Qi lived as an utterly ordinary herbalist in the countryside. One day, he kindly brought home a sickly, beautiful girl covered in blood. They married in a flash and began their blissful, intimate life together. Right then, his long-delayed system finally activated. [Warning! Host detected in contact with the "Crimson Calamity," the world-ending witch!] Lin Qi looked at the adorable wife currently curled in his arms, who couldn't even open a jar lid and trembled at the sight of a mouse. Lin Qi: "System, are you insane? This is clearly just a weak and delicate sickly girl!" Thus, Lin Qi treated the system as a "Contrast System," where taking care of his wife made him stronger. Combing his wife's hair rewarded him with [Free Attribute Points]. Taking his wife out for sunshine rewarded him with [Forbidden Spell: Arcane Explosion]. Lin Qi: "This soft life tastes so good!" ... Yet, in the eyes of outsiders: The strongest Beastkin Assassin: "That man dissected a Beast King with a common skinning knife! That was a show of force towards the powerful!" The Holy Son of the Radiant Church: "I infiltrated his home as a tutor, but he had me babysit the children... He must have seen through my disguise!" The World-Ending Witch, Felucia: "I hid all the way in the countryside. How is it that the husband I married on a whim is stronger than I was at my peak?"
[Dao Companion Rental System]. By renting himself out as a temporary dao companion to daughters of destiny, Qin Hao could obtain generous rewards. His service philosophy was simple: play the role of the devoted lover, resolve their troubles, depart without a trace once the matter was settled, and absolutely avoid entangling karma. However, those daughters of destiny didn't see it that way. That night, all the major powers across the Three Realms and Nine Heavens jointly besieged the Qin Clan, plunging it into an unprecedented crisis. "It's Su Qingyue! The peerless sword immortal who attained the Dao and became an Immortal Emperor in a thousand years, the one who severed the River of Time with a single sword strike! When... when did our Qin Clan make an enemy of her?" Qin Hao stepped forward, clearing his throat lightly: "Ahem, Ancestors, don't panic. She's here for me. To be honest... she's my ex-girlfriend." From another direction, the newly ascended Empress of the Demon Realm arrived with ten thousand demons pressing on the border: "Qin Hao! Today, the entire Qin Clan shall be buried with you!" Hearing this, the Qin Clan ancestors all turned their eyes sharply towards Qin Hao. Qin Hao scratched his head somewhat sheepishly: "The Demon Empress... she's also my ex-girlfriend." Before the Qin ancestors could process this, an aloof figure traversed the River of Time: "The Qin Clan deserves annihilation!" Recognizing the newcomer, the Qin ancestors paled in terror: "It's her! Liu Ruyan, the Extinction Empress who ventured alone into the alien realm and suppressed it for an entire epoch! Didn't she vanish into the River of Time long ago? Why would she cross it just to target our clan?" Qin Hao scratched his head again, looking even more embarrassed: "My fault, my fault. She's an ex-girlfriend too." Watching countless celestial maidens descend, the Qin Clan ancestors were utterly astounded: "You scoundrel! Just... just how many women have you gotten involved with over the years?"
