Han Xiaoxia was brought over and the ropes were loosened.

When she saw Xu Wenping, she was extremely excited and pounced on him.

“Wenping, you scared me to death. I, I thought I wouldn’t be able to see you this time.”

Looking at Han Xiaoxia, Xu Wenping was speechless.

Couldn’t this girl hold back a little?

She didn’t see his brother-in-law beside her, even though he didn’t seem to have a good relationship with Su Yurou.

But they were siblings after all. It was still a little inappropriate for him to be intimate with another woman in front of her younger brother, okay?

However, Han Xiaoxia did not care about that. After she came over, she directly held Xu Wenping’s arm.

Looking at her cute and helpless appearance, Xu Wenping was really embarrassed to push her away.

Xu Wenping coughed and looked at Su Chengren.

Su Chengren didn’t say anything. He didn’t feel anything about this.

After ail, he was also a lustful man. When he saw Xu Wenping with other women, he didn’t feel sorry for his sister.

“Since there’s nothing else, I’ll be leaving.”

Patting the back of Han Xiaoxia’s hand, Xu Wenping stood up and planned to leave with her.

Su Chengren naturally did not want to stop him. After all, the two of them had reached a temporary consensus.

Moreover, Xu Wenping had also agreed to treat his illness.

The two of them had just agreed that Xu Wenping would come over to treat him the next day.

However…

Just as the two of them were about to leave, the door of the villa was pushed open from the outside.

Then, a few figures walked in from outside. The leader was a middle-aged man in his fifties.

After entering, he glanced coldly at Xu Wenping. Then, he immediately said to Su Chengren, who had already stood up and was about to send him off, “Chengren, why are you so sloppy? Since he’s already here, why haven’t you detained him?”

Su Chengren couldn’t help but gasp when he suddenly saw the middle-aged man.

This person was his elder, and he was also an outstanding person in the previous generation of the Su family.

Although he was not the family head, his power was greater than the family head. Moreover, he controlled the Su family’s private army.

Because he led troops abroad all year round, he had dozens of mercenary groups and many martial artists attached to him. Therefore, his strength was many times stronger than some of the hidden aristocratic families in the country.

Usually, he didn’t care much about other family affairs. He even returned to the country a few times.

However, as long as he returned to the country, he would definitely be able to do what he wanted to do.

With a powerful private army as his backing, it was not difficult for him to do anything he wanted.

Moreover, the Su family had a powerful business empire, so with the double backing, they could naturally do whatever they wanted.

However, Su Chengren never expected that the matter of Jin Hai City would actually alarm him.

Looking at Sixth Uncle who had brought people into the villa, his feelings were extremely complicated.

However, when he saw Sixth Uncle talking to him, Su Chengren quickly walked over and bowed. “I’ve already dealt with most of the matters here.”

“Almost done?”

“Hmph!” Su Jingang sneered. He looked at Xu Wenping and asked coldly, “Your so-called ‘settled’ is to let this kid go?”

Su Chengren was stunned by his question. He followed his gaze and looked at Xu Wenping. Then, he said, “I’ve reached an agreement with him. We won’t take Su Yurou away for the time being. However, this doesn’t mean that this matter is invalid. It’s just that it’s postponed.”

“Humph! Postponed? What’s wrong?” Su Jingang sneered. His eyes were cold. “The family matters are our priority. How can we delay? Moreover, Su Yurou’s marriage alliance cannot be delayed. How can it be delayed like this?”

“What did he give you to make you protect him like this?” he asked as he stared at Su Chengren questioningly.

He was quite serious when he asked the question, and his tone was also a little heavier. It was obvious that he was blaming Su Chengren.

Su Chengren’s expression froze when he heard his question. Then, he shook his head and said, “Sixth Uncle, what are you talking about? How could I be bribed by him? I’m a member of the Su family. The rise and fall of the Su family is a top priority for me.”

“But he just promised me that he would help me treat my terminal illness. 1 owe him a favor. Such a big favor, I naturally have to pay a corresponding price.”

He paused for a moment, then sorted out his thoughts and continued, “We, the Su family, must repay kindness and revenge. This is what the elders have always taught me. Don’t you think so, Sixth Uncle?”

Su Jingang raised his eyebrows when he heard Su Chengren’s words. He sneered and said, “This kid has medical skills. He can treat people’s illnesses, and it’s incurable diseases?”

He narrowed his eyes and sneered. “Besides, you’re so young and you already have a terminal illness. Who diagnosed you?”

A series of questions were questioning Xu Wenping’s medical skills and Su Chengren’s words.

Su Chengren’s expression turned ugly. He pondered for a moment and said, “Sixth Uncle, there’s a problem with my lungs. It should be lung cancer! As for whether Xu Wenping can treat the disease, you can do an investigation in Jin Hai. His medical methods are quite amazing.”

Su Chengren had his own understanding of Sixth Uncle’s sudden arrival and his obstruction of Xu Wenping’s departure.

Over the years, the Su family had shown signs of decline.

There were people in the northeast who were restricting them, there were people in the military who were suppressing them, and there were people in the political world who were weakening the Su family’s effective strength from time to time.

If not for that, why would the Su family have any marriage alliances?

However, this wasn’t the Su family’s biggest problem. The biggest problem was that there weren’t many truly outstanding figures in the previous generation of Su Chengren and Su Yurou.

Now that Su Yurou’s father was the family head, his ability was obvious to all.

There was more than enough to defend the city, but not enough to open up more land.

It was precisely because of this that the other Su family members had other ideas.

If the main branch couldn’t do it, there would naturally be people from the side branches who coveted it.

For example, Su Jingang was a member of the Su family’s side branch.

Although he controlled the Su family’s private army, he was only a commander.

The real power of the Su family was still in the hands of Su Yurou’s father.

However…

Due to the problem of the family head’s ability, the Su family was now facing problems everywhere. The people from the side branches began to stir up trouble.

This naturally included Su Jingang.

Seeing that the family was beginning to shake, their branch had a chance to be promoted to the main branch.

Since there was an opportunity, they naturally had to seize it.

That was why Su Jingang had come. Moreover, he had come very naturally.

According to his logic, he was the person in charge of the Su family’s private army.

In that case, he could also control some important matters of the family..
