The City’s Strongest Son-in-law Chapter 1552 - 1551: Can’t Leave
Previously on The City’s Strongest Son-in-law...
Gao Yuan looked at her close friend Zhao Feifei and said, "Feifei, sorry, I have things to deal with, so I’ll leave first."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Feifei hurriedly stopped Gao Yuan and laughed, "That’s not gonna work, you promised me when you came here, you can’t just leave like this now."
Seeing Zhao Feifei blocking her like this, preventing her from leaving, Gao Yuan had a very ominous feeling.
Zhao Feifei had always known various young masters, and Gao Yuan knew Zhao Feifei always wanted to find a wealthy man to marry, hence the effort she put into knowing these rich heirs.
Naturally, Gao Yuan was also very clear about how Zhao Feifei went about contacting these people.
But Gao Yuan actually disapproved of these methods at heart, yet since these were things Zhao Feifei herself wanted to do, Gao Yuan had never said anything.
But now seeing that Gao Yuan did not let herself leave, she suddenly felt something was off, as if Zhao Feifei had agreed upon something with this Young Master Wang.
That’s why she was called to this competition, after all, Gao Yuan wasn’t a fool; looking at Zhao Feifei and Young Master Wang’s expressions, she could basically guess.
Not to mention, Young Master Wang was eying her up and down, making Gao Yuan feel uncomfortable.
Obviously, Young Master Wang had certain intentions in coming here.
Gao Yuan frowned and looked at Zhao Feifei, saying, "I really have other things to handle over there; I’ll make it up to you later!"
Upon hearing this, Young Master Wang’s expression also darkened, and he directly looked at Zhao Feifei and said, "Zhao Feifei, what are you doing? Didn’t we agree earlier?"
Zhao Feifei saw that Young Master Wang had actually made things explicit, and her face showed some panic.
Gao Yuan frowned and looked at Zhao Feifei, saying, "Zhao Feifei, what is he trying to say? What did you two agree upon behind my back?!"
Zhao Feifei appeared very pitiable, looking at Gao Yuan and saying, "Gao Yuan, I really have no other choice, could you help me?"
Right now, Gao Yuan wasn’t clear on what was going on, so she didn’t know what kind of help was needed.
But based on her understanding of Zhao Feifei, the guess was she probably owed a lot of money, hence asking for help.
Gao Yuan looked at Zhao Feifei and said, "What do you want me to do?"
Before Zhao Feifei could speak, Young Master Wang directly said, "What you need to do is to be my companion during this competition, of course, if I am satisfied, I will naturally help with Zhao Feifei’s issues."
Actually, it was because Young Master Wang had lost interest in Zhao Feifei that he switched his focus to Gao Yuan.
Upon hearing this, Gao Yuan basically understood what was happening. Zhao Feifei didn’t invite her here merely to watch the competition.
In truth, she was sold to Young Master Wang!
But Gao Yuan herself did not want to do such things, especially being tricked here.
Therefore, Gao Yuan immediately withdrew her hand from Zhao Feifei’s grip and said with displeasure, "I don’t care what you agreed with this person!"
"But this is your own matter, it has nothing to do with me, I’m leaving, take care of yourself!"
After saying this, Gao Yuan planned to leave directly, but before she could walk a few steps, she was stopped by Young Master Wang, who looked at Gao Yuan and smiled.
"Ha, I don’t care if you agree or not, but since you’ve come here, you have to obediently be my companion, got it? Otherwise, I cannot guarantee what I might do."
Gao Yuan tried to break free, but unfortunately, her strength was no match for Young Master Wang.
Coincidentally, Su Changfeng and Ji Hong also happened to arrive here, and from a distance, Su Changfeng could see Gao Yuan being stopped by a man.
Su Changfeng’s instinctive reaction was to leave, because initially he helped Gao Yuan a few times, and he didn’t wish to have any further ties with her, so he didn’t want to get involved in this matter now.
Originally, Su Changfeng saved Gao Yuan, frankly, if Gao Yuan hadn’t gone to that place, nothing would have happened.
It was the first time Su Changfeng saw Gao Yuan, and feeling compassion for a girl going through such things, he decided to help.
This time, since Gao Yuan could come here, she should realize what kind of situation she would face.
After all, this kind of competition is not something just anyone can participate in, it’s a venue for rich heirs, and once here it’s difficult to leave casually.
Therefore, Su Changfeng said to Ji Hong, "That side looks nice, let’s go check it out."
But since Su Changfeng saw the scene, Ji Hong naturally saw it too, and thus said, "But it seems that person is Gao Yuan, she seems to be in some trouble."
Su Changfeng wanted to leave upon recognizing it was Gao Yuan, thus said, "My main purpose for coming here is the competition, do you want me to stir up more trouble?"
If considering it from Su Changfeng’s perspective, it indeed wasn’t wise for him to get involved with these matters.
But after knowing Gao Yuan, Ji Hong found her to be a pretty good person, and seeing her encountering trouble now, naturally couldn’t just pretend nothing was wrong.
Hence, Ji Hong still said to Su Changfeng, "I know your difficulties, but now Gao Yuan, as a girl, facing such matters, surely cannot solve it herself."
Su Changfeng frowned and said, "But aren’t you curious, how someone like Gao Yuan, from an ordinary family, came to this place? You know not just anyone can come to this competition."
Ji Hong was surprised because Su Changfeng indeed raised a valid point, someone like Gao Yuan shouldn’t logically be here.
Otherwise, perhaps with the help of a rich heir, she could be brought here.
Ji Hong hesitated for a moment before saying to Su Changfeng, "Well, no matter what, let’s go see what’s going on, after all, she’s our neighbor."
