Chapter 398: Chapter 399: Throwing the Corpse into the Sea
He couldn’t be an ordinary person, and Jia Chenwen also expressed that it was precisely due to concerns in this regard that Su Changfeng couldn’t be killed easily.
"He is not ordinary. If I kill him, wouldn’t the trouble become bigger in the future?" Jia Siqi said.
"Have you forgotten where you live? You still have your yacht, and the sea has sharks to dispose of the body for you. Jia Siqi, the Young Master of the Jia family on Heaven Island, or do you lack even this bit of courage?" Cheng Siwen deliberately provoked.
Killing someone and dumping the body in the sea, once Su Changfeng’s body is in a shark’s belly, any attempts to investigate the matter would be futile.
Moreover, doing this could prevent Su Changfeng from coming back for revenge. It could be said to be a flawless plan.
Seeing Jia Siqi still hesitating, Cheng Siwen continued: "Young Master Jia, have you forgotten the scene at the auction where Su Changfeng made you lose face? Recently, many people on Heaven Island have been mocking you behind your back, saying you’re just a coward now, can’t even handle an anonymous person. Are you really a coward?"
Jia Siqi was stunned, then stood up angrily and cursed: "Cheng Siwen, do you believe that I’ll rip your mouth right now? How could I, Jia Siqi, be a coward?"
"If you’re not, then why don’t you have the guts to kill him?" Cheng Siwen laughed.
"Who said I lack the guts? Don’t worry, I’ll kill him!"
Cheng Siwen, having achieved his goal, stood up satisfied and left a business card saying: "Tang Qiulu is currently at the place on this card. Don’t forget what I told you, if he doesn’t die, your trouble will be immense in the future."
Looking at the card in his hand, Jia Siqi seemed to have obtained a treasure. His desire for Tang Qiulu had reached an obsessive level because he knew only Tang Qiulu could make Su Changfeng submit before him.
"So you’re hiding in a guesthouse, no wonder we’ve had no news for so long, but now, you can’t escape." Jia Siqi’s face was full of a lewd smile, his eyes cold, he murmured: "Su Changfeng, this time you can’t be so stubborn, right? Soon I’ll bring her to you in person, let you watch as I have my way with her."
After leaving the club, Jia Siqi called a few people and drove to the guesthouse where Tang Qiulu was staying.
Tang Qiulu sat in the living room, feeling a bit dazed. Whenever she thought of how Jia Siqi mentioned torturing Su Changfeng during their call, she couldn’t stay calm.
Fortunately, she realized that even if she went to the Jia family, she wouldn’t be helpful and might even put herself in danger, so she had no plans to head to the Jia family; instead, she sat in the living room waiting for Zhu Lie and the others to arrive.
"Qiulu, have a sip of water first." Xu Weiwei said to Tang Qiulu. Tang Qiulu hadn’t eaten breakfast or lunch, and Xu Weiwei feared her body might not hold up.
Tang Qiulu’s face was a bit pale at the moment. She shook her head and replied: "Thank you, I know you’re worried about me, but I really don’t want to drink now."
With a look of helplessness, Xu Weiwei placed the water on the table, sat beside Tang Qiulu, and comforted her, saying: "Don’t worry, Su Changfeng will definitely be fine. Once Zhu Lie arrives, they can rescue him."
Tang Qiulu nodded, saying firmly: "Yes, Brother Lie will definitely save him."
Seeing the worry on Tang Qiulu’s face had not diminished one bit, it showed that her concern for Su Changfeng was quite genuine. Although Xu Weiwei had felt the deep bond between Su Changfeng and Tang Qiulu over the past few days, she still found it oddly perplexing.
All of Jiang City knew that Su Changfeng had married into the Shen Family, and this incident had become a joke about the Shen Family. People said Tang Qiulu didn’t care for Su Changfeng at all, that he had no status at home for over 3 years, and the two had never truly been a couple.
Before meeting them, Xu Tong always thought they were forced together, that there was absolutely no emotion between them, maybe even mutual resentment.
But now what she saw was the two of them appearing as a very intimate couple, and their bond seemed deeper than ordinary relationships, leaving her particularly confused.
"Qiulu, can I ask you something?" Xu Weiwei couldn’t help but ask.
"You’re probably wondering why my relationship with Su Changfeng isn’t bad like others say, like enemies, right?" Tang Qiulu said.
"That’s right," Xu Weiwei said candidly: "Over the past 3 years, I’ve heard quite a bit about you two. I’ve heard that you don’t like Su Changfeng at all, but from what I see, your feelings for him aren’t fake, because pretending simply wouldn’t look like this."
Tang Qiulu recalled three years ago, the first time Su Changfeng appeared at the Shen Family, and when she learned that Su Changfeng was marrying into their family, she was utterly despairing.
It was because this suddenly appeared loser was suddenly going to become her man, and at the time she didn’t even know Su Changfeng’s name, her heart was utterly broken, but she had no way to refuse.
From Su Changfeng’s appearance at the Shen Family to the wedding date being set, it took less than 3 days, completely altering the course of Tang Qiulu’s life.
Back then, she genuinely disliked Su Changfeng because without Su Changfeng, she could have had different choices in life and could have married some wealthy person to improve her family’s situation.
That was until the first time Tang Qiulu noticed Su Changfeng would quietly follow her at a distance when she went running in the morning, protecting her. He seemed like an angel at the time, not whispering sweet words, but using actions to show his care.
And he did the same when she went to and from work. Of course, back then Tang Qiulu didn’t face the changes in her feelings directly but instead found more reasons to dislike Su Changfeng.
The incident she remembered most vividly was when she casually mentioned a dish she liked, and that evening, when she got home, Su Changfeng had cooked that dish for her by himself.
Tang Qiulu had once mentioned long ago that even if you raised a dog for three years, you’d feel something for it, not to mention a person like Su Changfeng who kept silently giving.
Over the past three years, Su Changfeng had never complained, even when Sun Mei scolded him, he still wore a smile, willing to endure all the humiliation for Tang Qiulu.
Ridiculed and mocked by the Shen family, he seemed unfazed. Those people thought he was a coward, but his true identity was something those who mocked him could never compare to.
Tang Qiulu knew that Su Changfeng was not an ordinary man, but he endured so much humiliation, all for her.
Why wouldn’t she love a man like that?
