The Crazy Son-In-Law

Xiao Shun shrugged, “We did have some tough targets tonight.”

Song Qingzhou patted his shoulder and comforted, “No worries. These things happen.”

Xiao Shun: “…What are these things?”

Song Qingzhou laughed and admitted, “Just kidding. I’m grateful you came to help. I don’t want you to feel burdened.”

“You were here to catch someone today, and it was dangerous for you to smoke there. What if there was a sniper nearby? You’d be an obvious target.”

Xiao Shun had followed his master overseas, so he was well-versed in these matters.

He continued to ask, “Are these people really the fanatical extremists you mentioned?”

“The information I received says so, but we’ll know for sure when we question the ones we caught,” replied Song Qingzhou. “Let’s go, get in the car. Tonight is the real vigil.”

After they got in the car, Song Qingzhou said, “By the way, I plan to transfer my shares of Golden Harrow to you. This way, you can basically have full control over Golden Harrow.”

Xiao Shun hesitated, “How much?”

“Consider it the medical fee for treating Duan Jia’s injury,” said Song Qingzhou. In fact, this was also the intention of the Feng family, trying to win over Xiao Shun.

“Then I won’t refuse.” Xiao Shun said.

“Sure you won’t.”

“Totally no reason to refuse your kindness, Mr. Song.” Xiao Shun continued, “But how about you leave Duan Jia to me?”

“What do you want him for?” Song Qingzhou asked.

“To be a training partner for your daughter. I promised her that. She needs an opponent of equal strength right now. Although Duan Jia is not her match at the moment, he’s been practicing body techniques, making him tough and able to withstand a beating.” Xiao Shun said with a smile.

“What did you say? Duan Jia is no match for Linger?” Song Qingzhou said with a surprised look on his face.

He had seen Song Linger defeat her opponent at Willow Creep, but he always thought it was just a fluke. He never imagined Song Linger would make such rapid progress in just two or three months. Song Linger had exceptional talent, but she was still at the Foundation stage. It wouldn’t be as easy for her going forward.

“A good teacher produces talented students.” Xiao Shun said.

“So you plan to use my people to please my daughter?” Song Qingzhou said, speechless.

“Please? Mr. Song, please understand the situation. I’m teaching your daughter martial arts now. You should thank me.” Xiao Shun retorted.This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.

“Then why don’t I just take Duan Jia directly to Linger to be her training partner?”

“Duan Jia’s body technique is not yet mature. I also need to give him some advice and guidance. Can you do that?” Xiao Shun asked, raising his eyebrows.

Song Qingzhou was immediately at a loss for words.

However, upon further thought, Xiao Shun was training talents for him at the moment. Weren’t both Song Linger and Duan Jia his people? He quickly let go of his concerns.

After a moment of silence, Xiao Shun spoke in a calm tone.

“Has your daughter been through some kind of trauma? She’s obsessed with martial arts. Whenever she has time, she practices in that little house the eighth avenue. I’m afraid she might become possessed.”

“Linger’s mother passed away early. When she was young, I was driven out of the Song family. You know all this. Perhaps it’s because of this that she feels no one can protect her, and she needs to become strong to protect herself.” Song Qingzhou sighed.

Then there was another moment of silence.

…

Room 603, Aves Hotel, the only three-star hotel in St Marquet.

Tang Shishi removed her black robe, revealing her exquisite figure. She had long coffee-colored hair, delicate eyebrows, almond-shaped eyes, a high nose, and seductive cherry lips.

“Miss, who were those people tonight? Were they the police? They were quite scary, especially that pervert. I didn’t expect him to be so powerful.” Le Wen said as she packed up their clothes, still feeling frightened.

If the news got out that the heiress of the Kumi Group was caught here, it would be big news.

“We don’t have any news yet, but we’ll find out tomorrow. Anyway, we’re not criminals, so there’s nothing to worry about.”

Tang Shishi lay down on the soft bed, completely relaxed, and spoke casually. In her mind, the image of Xiao Shun from earlier appeared. Le Wen was quite capable, but she didn’t expect that she wouldn’t stand a chance against him.

This was just a small county town, and she couldn’t help but marvel at the hidden talents in Stillwater.

“You told your father that you came to Stillwater for medical treatment. We’ve been away for half a month, and we should have returned to the capital a few days ago. Your father is already very angry. Now we’ve secretly come to this middle-of-nowhere place to participate in some animal welfare event. What if something happens? How can I explain it to your family?” Le Wen said with a worried look on her face.

“Alright, alright, you chatterbox. I’ll listen to you. Tomorrow morning, we’ll go to Stillwater to find Mr. Wang, okay?” Tang Shishi said, rolling her eyes.

“Yes, Miss, you said it.”

“Of course.” Tang Shishi’s eyes twinkled, and she beckoned to Le Wen with her index finger, “Come here, come here, I have a secret to tell you.”

Le Wen walked to her side with a puzzled look on her face, and asked curiously, “What secret?”

“Come closer.”

Le Wen moved a little closer.

Tang Shishi reached out and touched Le Wen’s chest, and Le Wen screamed and jumped away, crossing her arms over her chest. A blush spread across her face as she blinked and said, “Miss, what are you doing?”

“The touch feels nice.” Tang Shishi stared at her delicate white hand with a lingering smile and sighed.

“Miss, you… you are a lady of high birth. How could you…” Le Wen stuttered with a flushed face.

“You’re so scared. I’m just teasing you. Did that guy take advantage of you tonight?”

“No,” answered Le Wen with a slight frown.

“Really?”

“Really,” Le Wen confirmed decisively.

“If he dared to take advantage of you, when we return to the capital, I’ll make sure to find him even if we have to dig three feet into the ground, and I’ll cut off his claws and give them to you,” Tang Shishi declared.

Le Wen: “…Miss, there’s no need to be so cruel.”

As soon as her words fell, Tang Shishi suddenly clutched her chest, her face pale and breathing hurried. Le Wen’s face changed in shock, realizing that the pain in her lady’s heart had returned.

…

On the first day of the new year, following tradition, Xiao Shun visited the Liu family with the three of the Yao family to celebrate the New Year and then returned to Stillwater after spending a night at St. Marquet. Since they drove a new car that wasn’t registered at Pearl International, the security stopped the vehicle at the entrance.

Recognizing Xiao Shun and his family, the security guard greeted them with a beaming smile: “Mr. Xiao, you’re back! During your absence, many people came to visit you with gifts, and they arrived in luxury cars, all looking like big bosses…”

Xiao Shun smiled and nodded without a word. He still didn’t like the ideas of New Year celebrations, as they were too troublesome. But at least this year, he didn’t have to visit the Yao family, which saved him some trouble.
