Chapter 177

Chapter 177 - I Have to Save Him!

After leaving the Wang family, Zhang Xiaolong didn't head straight to Qingyang; instead, he visited Su Mei's home.

He had been wrestling with the decision to show Su Mei the video, but ultimately, he resolved to reveal the truth. If Wang Zongming was inexplicably released, Su Mingtang certainly wouldn't take it lying down.

The only way to make the whole story clear was to show both of them the videos, ensuring that the Su family would truly stay out of Wang Zongming's affairs.

“This is... Hee Jia?” Su Mei was taken aback when she recognized Hee Jia meeting with Wang Zongyi.

Su Mingtang's face turned sour. Clearly, even though his daughter was unaware, Hee Jia was his mistress. Seeing her with Wang Zongyi, dressed provocatively, left little doubt about the nature of their relationship.

The footage of Hee Jia and Tian Feng in bed together infuriated Su Mingtang to the point where he nearly slammed his hand on the table.

He had provided that woman with a villa, yet there she was, keeping a young lover—two, in fact. The metaphorical greenery atop his head was now all too apparent.

Tian Feng's subsequent confession left them both staggered with disbelief. They finally understood that the entire scheme had been orchestrated by this seemingly sleazy man, who had even played a role in Hee Jia's seduction of Su Mingtang.

Su Mei was horrified at the thought that her close friend had been involved with her own father.

Though she remained silent, the embarrassment Su Mingtang felt was palpable.

“This despicable woman! She plotted to kill my daughter and seize the Su family's fortune. Her intentions are downright malicious!” Su Mingtang exclaimed with venom.

Wang Zongming's plot had been meticulously crafted. If things had continued as planned, Wang Zongyi would have undoubtedly taken over the Wang family's assets. And if Su Mei were out of the picture, Hee Jia might have been elevated to a position of power within the Su family.

These revelations left Su Mingtang sweating with fear. He had believed the woman to be merely money-hungry, with otherwise innocent intentions and a caring nature towards him. He never imagined she would be entangled with so many others, harboring such malevolent schemes.

“Is Yaru that beautiful female manager?” Su Mei had clearly done her homework on Zhang Xiaolong since the day before.

“She's also my girlfriend, or rather, my wife,” Zhang Xiaolong said with a smile, confirming the relationship.

“That can't be,” Su Mei countered quickly. “You're only twenty years old; you're not even married!”

Zhang Xiaolong simply shrugged, choosing not to engage in the argument.

After he had left, Su Mingtang let out a sigh. “My dear, this young man is decent, but he's already taken. You should set your sights elsewhere.”

“No,” Su Mei declared with a defiant air, her petite face etched with resolve. “I believe it's destiny. Why else would the heavens have him save me? Since he did, he has to marry me, or I won't rest.”

Su Mingtang had been a force to be reckoned with his entire life, but upon hearing his daughter's words, he realized she surpassed him in stubbornness!

......

In a room somewhere in Qingyang City, Wang Zongyi was scowling at someone. “You're afraid to take on Zhang Xiaolong now?”

“This man is tough to handle. Otherwise, your plan wouldn't have fallen apart,” the person replied, remaining hidden in the shadows as if reluctant to show his face.

“You're just scared!” Wang Zongyi scoffed.

“I have a much better method. Obviously, I wouldn't settle for such a foolish approach,” the voice from the shadows responded ominously, “I intend to strip him of everything he has!”
