The City’s Strongest Son-in-law Chapter 1518 - 1517: Poisoning

Su Changfeng sat there watching everyone and suddenly said with mockery, "Looks like you really did lay out quite a lavish feast this time. I’ve never seen food this rich at the Ye Family before. But why do I get the feeling this is a Hongmen Banquet?"

Ye Weijun rolled his eyes at Su Changfeng and stayed silent. Even though he was very displeased with Su Changfeng in his heart, he kept it bottled up and didn’t say anything.

Hearing this, Ji Hong felt a twinge of guilt. Meals like this were something they would make on ordinary days, yet the previous Su Changfeng had actually never seen such a sumptuous spread?

Shangguan Feihong said blandly, "We don’t really know what you like, so it’s all just home-cooked dishes."

Shangguan Feihong didn’t try to curry favor with Su Changfeng, but she also wasn’t rejecting him as intensely as she had before.

After all, the plan this time still had to go forward, so Shangguan Feihong didn’t want to anger Su Changfeng into leaving right from the start.

Su Changfeng smiled and said, "All these years you haven’t even cared whether I had enough to eat on a daily basis, so it’s only natural you don’t know what I like."

In his previous life, Su Changfeng had indeed never had a full meal. But now, as someone who had been reborn, these dishes in front of him didn’t stir up any appetite at all.

Of course, Su Changfeng had no intention of letting Shangguan Feihong and the others see that. He put on a look of being extremely hungry.

He even started wolfing down the food directly, as if he had never eaten anything this delicious before.

Seeing this scene, ridicule flashed in Ye Weijun’s eyes toward Su Changfeng. This was food he’d long since gotten used to eating, yet Su Changfeng was acting like he was tasting fine delicacies.

Watching Su Changfeng eat like that, a trace of amusement appeared in Shangguan Feihong’s eyes. This way, the thing she needed to do could be handled easily.

Because Shangguan Feihong had put drugs in these dishes.

Ji Hong looked at Su Changfeng and said, "Slow down, child, no one’s fighting you for it."

In their eyes, Su Changfeng really had never eaten such good food, which was why he was acting like this. But the reason Su Changfeng behaved this way was only to cooperate with Shangguan Feihong’s little performance.

Su Changfeng knew very well what scheme Shangguan Feihong had in mind when she called him over, but he didn’t know exactly what she wanted to do. Naturally, he was also curious just what kind of bottomless thing Shangguan Feihong would do.

Very soon, Su Changfeng felt a wave of fatigue surge over him. Looked like there really was something fishy about the food!

But at this point, Su Changfeng was no longer an ordinary person. With the strength he had on Tianyuan Continent, how could he pass out just from a bit of drug?

Still, to let the next part of their plan proceed smoothly, Su Changfeng put on a look of being drugged senseless.

In an instant, he collapsed right onto the table.

Seeing Su Changfeng suddenly pass out mid-bite, both Ye Tian and Ji Hong were extremely shocked in their hearts.

Ji Hong hurriedly supported Su Changfeng and said anxiously, "Chang Feng, Chang Feng? Wake up!"

"Don’t worry, he won’t die. He’s just unconscious for the time being," Shangguan Feihong said indifferently.

Hearing this, Ji Hong frowned and looked at Shangguan Feihong, asking, "Mom, just what exactly have you done!"

Seeing Ji Hong actually use this kind of attitude with her, a hint of displeasure flashed in Shangguan Feihong’s eyes as she said, "What I do—do you think you have the right to question me?!"

Ji Hong couldn’t bear to watch Shangguan Feihong frame Su Changfeng like this, so for the first time she looked straight at Shangguan Feihong and said, "Mom, no matter what, Chang Feng is my child. I carried him for ten months and gave birth to him!"

"How can I just sit here and watch you harm him like this? It’s impossible!"

But helplessly, Ji Hong’s resistance meant nothing to Shangguan Feihong. Shangguan Feihong didn’t even spare Ji Hong a glance; she just looked at Ye Tian and said, "Ye Tian, keep your woman in line. Otherwise, as her mother I might have to step in and help!"

Hearing this, Ye Tian hurried forward and pulled Ji Hong back, saying, "Don’t get so worked up. Chang Feng is just unconscious right now; he’ll be fine."

At that moment, the people behind Shangguan Feihong stepped up, hoisted Su Changfeng, and carried him off toward the cellar.

Ji Hong went straight back to the room, threw herself on the bed, and started crying.

Ye Tian looked at Shangguan Feihong with a frown and said, "Mom, what is the meaning of this? Even if you’ve never liked Chang Feng, he’s still a child of our Ye Family!"

"Yes, I know that. That’s exactly why he should be making some contributions to the Ye Family. Relax, I’m just locking him in the cellar for now," Shangguan Feihong said coolly.

As if these things were nothing at all. Even though in Ye Tian and the others’ eyes this was already vicious to an extreme, Shangguan Feihong herself felt it was completely inconsequential.

"What are you trying to do?!"

Ye Tian frowned at Shangguan Feihong. In truth, he already vaguely guessed what she meant, but he didn’t dare believe it.

Shangguan Feihong said, "From today on, Weijun is Su Changfeng!"

Hearing this, Ye Tian stayed silent. He didn’t even know what he should say. Even though he’d already had his suspicions, hearing her admit it out loud still made it hard for him to accept.

Su Changfeng was locked into an iron cage in the cellar.

A moment later, Huo Tian also came over. When he saw Su Changfeng’s current state, he had no way to help. After all, his main duty was just to make sure the Ye Family wasn’t endangered by outside forces.

As for these things happening inside the Ye Family, Huo Tian had absolutely no way to intervene, so he could only look at Su Changfeng with aching heart.

"Chang Feng, I want to help you too, but I can’t..."

Huo Tian thought Su Changfeng was unconscious, so he spoke lightly, then let out a heavy sigh.

But who would have thought that the supposedly comatose Su Changfeng would suddenly open his eyes, looking completely clear-headed.

Su Changfeng said, "Shangguan Feihong wants Ye Weijun to take my place, doesn’t she?"

Huo Tian was stunned at first, then exclaimed in surprise, "Chang Feng, you—you’re awake?"

"It’s just some knockout drug. It doesn’t do anything to me," Su Changfeng said with a mocking tone.

Hearing this, Huo Tian was even more astonished. He had clearly seen how much knockout drug Shangguan Feihong had used back then. Any adult would probably be out cold from that.

Let alone a child like Su Changfeng.
