The City’s Strongest Son-in-law Chapter 1548 - 1547: Surrender

After all, a prominent family like the Zhou Family is really formidable. Ever since the Zhou Family came into the picture, they could do everything the Wei Family could to help Su Changfeng, and even do it better.

Wei Guanglin was silent for a while and then said, "I do have a method to solve the current trouble, but it requires you to set aside your pride."

"What do you mean?"

"Right now, it’s impossible for us to cooperate with Su Changfeng, but if we work for him in the future, as his subordinates, that’s certainly doable," Wei Guanglin said solemnly.

Working for Su Changfeng, wouldn’t that make us his subordinates?

Such a thing seemed excessively humble in Wei Chengyu’s eyes. After all, he was a young master from the Wei Family, yet now he was going to be someone’s underling?

Furthermore, Su Changfeng wasn’t necessarily a formidable existence at the moment, or who knows what he might become in the future.

If in the future Su Changfeng doesn’t become someone influential, the family would be doomed!

Wei Chengyu frowned and said, "But is this really necessary? Even if Su Changfeng is now associated with the Zhou Family, there’s no way to be sure how far he will go."

"That’s what I estimate, but making such a decision now could be beneficial. Even if it’s a gamble, it’s worth taking for our Wei Family."

"If Su Changfeng really becomes someone beyond our reach, it will be too late to submit to him. You understand?" Wei Guanglin said with a furrowed brow.

While the two were talking, a servant reported that Young Master Wang Wenli of the Wang Family had arrived.

Wei Guanglin and Wei Chengyu were both surprised when they heard this and quickly asked someone to bring him in.

Wei Chengyu looked at Wang Wenli and said in surprise, "Wang Wenli, what brings you here?"

The Wang Family is also a major family, so it was quite unexpected for Wang Wenli to suddenly visit the Wei Family.

Wang Wenli laughed and said, "Do you feel honored?"

Wei Chengyu silently rolled his eyes, but didn’t show it, knowing the Wang Family’s status was above his own.

When Wei Guanglin saw Wang Wenli, he stood up and smiled, "Young Master Wang, what brings you unexpectedly? Is there something going on?"

If there was no reason, Wei Guanglin wouldn’t believe Wang Wenli would suddenly come to his house.

Wang Wenli didn’t hold back and said directly, "I just want to ask you something, and I believe you’ll speak honestly."

Hearing this, Wei Guanglin and Wei Chengyu realized Wang Wenli was here for no good reason, and they suspected his questions might involve Su Changfeng.

Wei Guanglin calmly said, "Why not, if there’s anything you want to know, just ask us. We’ll tell you anything we know."

Wang Wenli said, "You know Su Changfeng, right? Does he have a special relationship with your Wei Family? Why did the Zhou Family let Su Changfeng replace them in the competition?"

After hearing this, Wei Guanglin’s face showed a hint of difficulty, and he said helplessly, "Your words have indeed caught me off guard."

"Not to mention any relationship with Su Changfeng, and the Zhou Family’s affairs are beyond our knowledge."

Wang Wenli continued, "But why did you help Su Changfeng at the gathering then?"

Wei Guanglin replied helplessly, "Since you’re asking, I can’t hide it. I helped out because I was requested."

"Who asked you to do it? Was it someone from the Zhou Family?" Wang Wenli asked, frowning.

"Yes, indeed it was someone from the Zhou Family. Before the gathering, Zhou Yunqi asked me to help Su Changfeng."

"Why I was asked to do it wasn’t explained. You know that compared to the Zhou Family, our Wei Family is nothing," Wei Guanglin said, looking at Wang Wenli. "And surely you investigated the trouble we encountered before visiting."

Wang Wenli glanced at Wei Chengyu behind Wei Guanglin and asked, "Is it related to him?"

"Indeed, it was about my son. Previously, I tried to find help in many places to resolve it, but nobody could help."

"But when I was desperate, the Zhou Family approached me. They said if I helped Su Changfeng at the gathering, my son’s issue could be resolved."

Wei Guanglin continued, "As you know, I was anxious about it, and when someone offered help, I naturally agreed."

"I don’t understand the reasons behind it, nor do I dare to ask."

Wei Guanglin talked earnestly and with some confusion.

Wang Wenli didn’t doubt this, as after meeting Su Changfeng previously, he knew what kind of person Su Changfeng was.

He didn’t think Wei Guanglin would help someone deemed worthless, but why the Zhou Family would act like this was unknown.

Certainly it wasn’t due to Su Changfeng’s prowess.

After a moment of silence, Wang Wenli said to Wei Guanglin, "Your Wei Family’s development seems not to be doing well lately."

Wei Guanglin raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Whenever the Zhou Family shows any displeasure, I’ll surely inform Young Master Wang promptly."

Wang Wenli nodded in satisfaction, knowing Wei Guanglin wasn’t a fool and thus didn’t need to clarify many things.

Seeing there was nothing more to learn from Wei Guanglin here, Wang Wenli stood up and said, "Alright, if what you offer is needed, I’ll be willing to help your family."

After saying this, Wang Wenli left confidently.
