Chapter 147: Chapter 147: A Golden Son-in-law Got Away, but This One Has Potential

Inside the Su villa.

Liu Yan was dressed in revealing clothes, her face caked in heavy makeup.

She stood in the courtyard, pacing back and forth anxiously.

’This damn girl... Why isn’t she here yet?’

’Everyone’s here now. We’re just waiting for this damn girl.’

’She’s getting older and thinks she can do as she pleases. In a couple of days, I’ll just freeze her bank account.’

As Liu Yan was muttering to herself, a balding man walked over.

"Didn’t you say Miss Su would be here soon?"

"It’s been half an hour. Why isn’t she here yet?"

The man had a sleazy air about him, and his small, beady eyes held a nauseating glint.

He even gave Liu Yan a lecherous once-over.

Liu Yan frowned imperceptibly and took a step back. "Young Master Zhang, please wait just a moment."

"My Ruoxi is still on her way. She must have gotten held up by something, but she’ll be here any minute."

"In that case, I’ll wait a little longer."

Young Master Zhang’s eyes roamed over Liu Yan’s figure.

After Young Master Zhang turned to leave, Liu Yan couldn’t help but roll her eyes.

She tried calling Su Ruoxi again, only to hear the automated message that the phone was turned off.

’Damn it... That wretched girl... She was clearly born but never raised...’

Liu Yan muttered vicious curses under her breath.

Just as she was endlessly cursing Su Ruoxi,

a Ferrari slowly pulled up to the villa’s main gate.

Liu Yan eyed the car with some confusion.

After all, she ran in these circles, so Liu Yan was naturally aware of the car’s price.

’This car must be worth close to ten million, right?’

’By all rights, we didn’t invite any scions from other wealthy families besides Young Master Zhang today.’

’So why would such a luxurious car be parked at the gate?’

It was even parked right across the entrance to her own villa’s courtyard.

The vehicle itself radiated an air of arrogance.

Just as Liu Yan was wondering about this,

the car door opened, and she saw a familiar figure step out.

Liu Yan’s eyes widened when she saw who it was, and for a moment, her gaze was filled with reproach.

She hurried forward, reaching out to grab Su Ruoxi.

But her expression quickly shifted to a doting smile. "Oh, it’s you, Ruoxi! Darling, you really must do something about this habit of being late."

Su Ruoxi sneered and sidestepped Liu Yan’s outstretched hand.

"What exactly did you call me back for?"

Hearing Su Ruoxi’s blunt question, the smile on Liu Yan’s face faltered.

"It’s your birthday today, Ruoxi. I just wanted to throw a celebration for you, didn’t I?"

As they were speaking, Young Master Zhang, drawn by the commotion, rushed over.

His eyes immediately locked onto Su Ruoxi, and he couldn’t look away.

In her deep blue evening gown, Su Ruoxi was particularly radiant.

Coupled with her innate beauty,

one glance was all it took for Young Master Zhang to be completely captivated.

Standing to the side, Liu Yan had already noticed Young Master Zhang’s expression.

A wave of satisfaction washed over her.

’She knew it. Young Master Zhang had definitely taken a liking to Su Ruoxi.’

’It looked like with just a little more effort today, she could finally sell off this wretched girl.’

’Then, the company’s problems would be solved in one fell swoop!’

’And the future benefits from this Young Master Zhang would be immeasurable!’

At this thought, the smile on Liu Yan’s face became a little more genuine.

"Alright, Ruoxi, stop being difficult. Let me introduce you to our guest."

"This is Young Master Zhang... Isn’t he so refined and distinguished...?"

Before Liu Yan could finish speaking,

Su Ruoxi shot Young Master Zhang a cold glance.

"If he’s what you call ’distinguished,’"

"then I don’t think the word ’eyesore’ would exist."

Liu Yan’s eyes widened, and she shot Su Ruoxi a vicious glare.

She quickly turned to Young Master Zhang. "My Ruoxi just loves to joke around, Young Master Zhang. Please don’t take it to heart..."

As Liu Yan was speaking to Young Master Zhang and apologizing,

Lin Feng got out of the car.

He walked right up to Su Ruoxi and pulled her into his embrace.

"Well now, where did this security guard come from? How dare he be such an eyesore?"

Lin Feng had just been on the phone with Yang Qiniang in the car.

That’s why he was a little late getting out.

He hadn’t expected that in just the one or two minutes he was delayed,

this Liu Yan would be so impatient to start peddling her daughter.

She was just like a madam.

It was a truly shameless display.

Su Ruoxi had been furious.

But with Lin Feng now by her side, her anger gradually subsided.

Su Ruoxi scoffed. "I can’t imagine who would let a security guard like that in. It lowers the tone of the whole house."

Young Master Zhang’s expression had already darkened the moment Lin Feng stepped out of the car.

Now, hearing Lin Feng and Su Ruoxi repeatedly compare him to a security guard,

Young Master Zhang’s face turned livid. He shot a vicious glare at Lin Feng and Su Ruoxi.

The infatuation in his eyes for Su Ruoxi vanished. He wasn’t an idiot, after all.

He whirled around and bellowed at Liu Yan, "Who is this man?"

"Didn’t you say your daughter didn’t have a boyfriend?"

Liu Yan was also stunned by the sudden turn of events.

For a moment, she couldn’t process what was happening.

Ignoring Su Ruoxi, Liu Yan was about to turn and placate Young Master Zhang.

To her surprise, however, Young Master Zhang didn’t even spare her a glance.

He turned and stomped over to Lin Feng. "Who are you calling a security guard?"

Lin Feng scoffed. "Is there anyone else here?"

As he spoke, Lin Feng straightened up, towering over Young Master Zhang.

Lin Feng was over six feet tall, while Young Master Zhang was 5’7" at best.

Standing together, Lin Feng’s sheer presence completely overwhelmed him.

Under such pressure, Young Master Zhang felt a flicker of fear.

He raised a hand as if to say something, but no words came out. Finally, he gritted his teeth, turned back, and shot Liu Yan a glare.

"Just you wait!"

After spitting out the vicious threat, Young Master Zhang turned and stormed off.

Liu Yan was caught completely off guard by how things had unfolded.

However, she also knew that the situation with Young Master Zhang was likely beyond saving.

Liu Yan stalked menacingly toward Su Ruoxi.

Her gaze flickered between Su Ruoxi and Lin Feng.

Liu Yan was a shrewd woman.

She could tell at a glance that the evening gown Su Ruoxi was wearing was incredibly expensive.

At the same time, she also noticed the watch on Lin Feng’s wrist and the car he drove.

His attire and his entire bearing set him apart from ordinary people.

’Perhaps this was another "golden son-in-law"!’

’One golden son-in-law had already run off, but there might be a chance with this one.’

Liu Yan’s mind raced, making a swift calculation.

She suppressed the anger she felt at having her plans ruined.

"Since you brought a friend home, Ruoxi, why don’t you both come in and have dinner?"

Seeing Liu Yan’s change in attitude didn’t make Su Ruoxi happy in the slightest; on the contrary, it only made her more furious.

Su Ruoxi knew exactly why Liu Yan’s attitude had suddenly improved, why she was even willing to let Young Master Zhang go.

It was because Liu Yan could see that Lin Feng was also incredibly wealthy.

And now she was getting other ideas.

’No matter what schemes Liu Yan was cooking up, in her heart, Su Ruoxi would always be nothing more than a commodity to be traded.’

The thought of having such a stepmother made Su Ruoxi feel sick.

Lin Feng scoffed. "There’s no need for dinner."
