The Crazy Son-In-Law

“Miss Liu.”

“Miss Liu.”

“…”

The greetings came in waves. The numerous security guards crowding at the door obediently parted to each side.

The woman referred to as Miss Liu quickly appeared in Xiao Shun’s field of view.

She seemed quite young, about thirty or so, yet she exuded a powerful aura that was incongruent with her age. Dressed in a high-slit black sleeveless gown that showcased her devilishly fiery figure, her wine-red hair was tied up high. Her captivating phoenix eyes, calm and composed, a straight nose, gave off an aura that was not to be trifled with.

Liu Ruyan quickly scanned the two people in the restroom, resting her gaze on Xiao Shun, and asked with a smile, “Little friend, where are you from?”

“Stillwater.”

Xiao Shun looked at her, revealing an innocuous grin, and simply replied.

Is this guy nuts? Where is Stillwater?

Many people might have heard of it, or even know which province it’s in, yet they wouldn’t have a concrete impression. It’s like being abroad, and when asked where you’re from, you tell them you’re from some random county.

“Is someone coming to help you?” Liu Ruyan asked, still wearing a calm and smiling face.

“No need.” Xiao Shun confidently responded, pointing to the wrecked restroom door. “I’ll take care of this. Whatever it costs, I’ll pay you all together when I settle the bill.”

Liu Ruyan couldn’t help but laugh, “You are interesting. But you’ve hit someone in my place, it’s going to be troublesome if no one comes to help.”

“Miss Liu, stop wasting words with him. This kid is just playing dumb. Take care of him directly.” Shi Mao, hands on his hips, said angrily.

Liu Ruyan smiled and said, “Mr. Shi, I’ve already prepared another private room for you, with good wine and girls. I’ll handle this. You are our valued guest, and I’ll ensure you a satisfactory result.”

Shi Mao paused for a moment, snorted, and said, “Fine, I’ll be waiting for your result.”

He stopped at the door and turned back to Xiao Shun, “Miss Liu, mark my words, no one can save him tonight. I want his leg.”

With that, he stormed out.

Liu Ruyan turned her gaze back to Xiao Shun, waiting for his response.

On one hand, it was Mr. Kong’s place and it wasn’t Shi Mao’s place to give orders, but she couldn’t offend him either. On the other hand, the capital was a complex place with intertwined relationships. Even the powerful Kong family couldn’t monopolize power. Who knew if this guy in front of her was a privileged tycoon’s fool son, even the Kong family found those kinds difficult to deal with.

Having to consider both sides, Liu Ruyan chose to watch how things developed, especially interested in whether the young man in front of her was genuinely naive or pretending to be.

Xiao Shun pondered for a moment and then said, “I see. Well, I’ll make a call.”

He wasn’t afraid of fighting these people, it just wasn’t necessary. If Tang Shishi could handle it, that would be enough. If she couldn’t, he could always fight.

Tang Shishi quickly answered the phone and asked, “Where are you?”

“Room 21, I’m stuck here. They told me to find someone to bail me out, so I need your help,” Xiao Shun replied with a light laugh.

“Alright, I’m on my way.” Tang Shishi said and hung up.

Xiao Shun put his phone in his pocket and said to Liu Ruyan, “She’ll be here soon.”

“I hope she can save you,” Liu Ruyan responded.

Xiao Shun kicked Tian Huacheng on the ground with a faint smile, and said to Liu Ruyan, “I will take this man away with me later, is that okay?”ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

“As long as the person you call can save the day, you can do whatever you want here.” Liu Ruyan looked at Xiao Shun with interest, she had met countless people but could not see through the young man in front of her.

The confidence, flamboyance, and arrogance in his eyes were different from those second-generation descendants.

Ultimately, those descendants relied on the merits of their ancestors, and while they were domineering, they were also cautious.

But his demeanor and eyes had an indescribable feeling that Liu Ruyan had never encountered before, he seemed to look down on everything.

She couldn’t see through him, and people have a natural reverence for the unknown. Liu Ruyan was no exception, so she became cautious.

Tang Shishi had already arrived at the scene with Qin Zhiyu.

Upon seeing her, Liu Ruyan’s astonishment flashed for a moment.

Tang Shishi was also a well-known figure among the younger generation in the capital, not only because of her Tang family background but also because she was just too beautiful.

The fact that Cheng Yu was deeply in love with her was well known, so Liu Ruyan naturally recognized her.

She greeted with a light smile, “Miss Tang.”

Tang Shishi nodded at her as a greeting, then looked at Xiao Shun and Tian Huacheng on the ground, and asked with a smile, “What’s going on here?”

“It’s a long story, I’ll explain later.” Xiao Shun slightly shrugged.

“Is this gentleman your friend?” Liu Ruyan asked.

“Yes.” Tang Shishi replied.

“Can we leave now?”

“Miss Tang, your friend hit my guest and offended Mr. Shi. As far as I know, he was in the wrong first. It’s not right to just leave like this.” Liu Ruyan responded calmly, with a smile.

“My friend won’t be wrong.” Tang Shishi replied, raising an eyebrow.

“If possible, I would like to play the peacemaker. Let your friend apologize to Mr. Shi. It’s better to resolve than be at odds. This matter can be considered over.”

If it was Tang Shishi’s friend, Shi Mao wouldn’t dare to do anything.

In Liu Ruyan’s view, this was a solution that suited everyone. It gave Shi Mao an explanation and didn’t offend Tang Shishi.

Her boss, Kong Xing, was naturally not afraid of these two, but in doing business, why offend people unnecessarily?

If she could solve the problem, it would be best not to bother Mr. Kong.

“I told you, my friend won’t be wrong. If there is a mistake, it’s their fault.” Tang Shishi said firmly.

“This makes it a bit difficult for me.” Liu Ruyan said, neither humble nor arrogant, without any intention of appeasement.

“Would you stop me if I want to leave?” Tang Shishi asked.

“Of course not.” Liu Ruyan replied.

“That’s good.” Tang Shishi finished speaking, looked at Xiao Shun and said, “Let’s go.”

Xiao Shun pulled Tian Huacheng up and followed Tang Shishi out of the private room.

“Miss Liu?”

A burly man standing next to Liu Ruyan, presumably the head of Horizon’s security team, said with a bit of indignation.

Liu Ruyan raised her hand and said expressionlessly, “Let them go.”

The burly man nodded, picked up the walkie-talkie and told the people at the door, “Let them go.”

Liu Ruyan sighed and said to him, “Bring me a bottle of good wine.”

“Okay.”
