Wang Jingtao walked out of the General Administration with a murderous look on his face.
Su Meifang, who was keeping watch in a teahouse not far away, saw him and immediately stood up to greet him.
"Brother Jingtao~"
Wang Jingtao, his face dark, ignored Su Meifang's admiring expression, stepped into the inner room, poured himself a cup of tea, and gulped it down.
Su Meifang followed in with small, quick steps. She was shocked to see the injuries on Wang Jingtao's face.
She rushed to Wang Jingtao, her heart aching as she reached out to touch his face. "What happened to your face? Who did this?"
Is it because of my mother?
Su Meifang's eyes flashed with intense hatred as she thought about how Su Yi was going to destroy her and her brother to pave the way for Su Changqing and his wife.
It was only after Su Chang'an reminded Su Yi of the Hu family connection that Su Yi remembered it.
Back then, Hu's two sons always followed Su Chang'an around at school. In order to get them into the army, Hu's family even brought their children and gifts to Su's house.
This time, Qin Xiangxiang's side had such a big incident. Su Chang'an and Su Yi made several trips. It seemed that a force was specifically opposing them and they hadn't been able to resolve it. That's why they thought of asking the Hu family to take action. Unexpectedly, Su Yi was called over by that old woman, and when he came back, he used this favor on Su Changqing and his wife.
Su Meifang and her brother were furious but helpless, so they had to find a way to resolve the matter themselves.
It's worth noting that Su Chang'an has performed exceptionally well in the battalion, and he's expected to be promoted to company commander by the end of this year!
If there are blemishes on the file during the approval process...
Wang Jingtao coldly pried Su Meifang's hand away.
"It has nothing to do with your business."
Seeing Su Meifang's suspicious look, Wang Jingtao added, "I met Song Jingzhou at the police station."
"I had a minor conflict with him!"
Su Meifang gritted her teeth, "It's that beast again!"
Wang Jingtao seemed to have thought of something, and looked up to say, "You said last time that he cared a lot about which family came before Commander Su?"
Su Meifang nodded, "I heard that they are willing to become that old woman's live-in grandson-in-law. Their next-door neighbors also confirmed it, saying that the old woman often brags outside, saying how good her grandson-in-law is, how filial and considerate he is."
“Even during this period, Su Jindong and Su Qingci didn’t go back many times, but Song Jingzhou went back from time to time. He really treated himself as a live-in grandson-in-law and treated that old woman’s family as his own.”
"Hmph, he's a cold-hearted and ruthless person, with no ties to this world. It won't be easy for you to find his weakness. I guess you'll have to try your best with the Su family!"
Su Meifang thought back to the first time she met Song Jingzhou in the compound, when he and Su Qingci ganged up on her and gave her a sound beating. She was so angry that she almost ground her teeth to powder.
Wang Jingtao watched the fleeting ferocious expression on Su Meifang's face, then slowly lowered his dark eyes.
It seems that the Su family isn't so peaceful after all.
The two Su siblings hated Song Jingzhou and the other side even more than he did.
"Wait a minute, don't rush. Now that old woman has brought those two bookworms back, I'll make her shoot herself in the foot!"
..……
On the vast ocean, Su Qingci stood on the top deck of the cruise ship, constantly observing the compass on her iPhone.
"This should be the right direction."
"Go north, and above that is Zhejiang City, and further up is Shanghai City."
Logically, Su Qingci should have landed in Shanghai, but if she had landed in Shanghai, the cruise ship would definitely have been lost.
Perhaps Wang Zhongren still had a shred of conscience and arranged for people to search for him.
Moreover, the journey from Shanghai to Kyoto is quite long, requiring a long train ride.
Given Su Changzhi's current physical condition, he might lose his life before he even gets out of the train station.
Why take the train when you own a cruise ship, don't have to spend money, don't have to fight for tickets, and don't have to squeeze in?
Su Qingci pulled up a miniature map from her phone's photo library, then swiped it with two fingers to instantly enlarge it.
“Go directly around the deep sea, cross Shanghai and head north, then cross Jiangcheng and Lucheng, and you can reach Tianjin directly.”
"Tianjin and Kyoto are right next to each other, and you can just take a bus."
Su Qingci estimated that it would be about 900 nautical miles from the island to Tianjin.
The cruise ship is currently operating at a speed of about 15 knots per hour.
Calculating the remaining time, and traveling day and night, they would be able to enter the waters off Tianjin in just over a day.
The sound of hurried footsteps rang out, and Sixiang poked her little head out from the stairwell. "Sister, sister, my mom has cooked dinner. Come down and eat!"
With a flick of her wrist, Su Qingci's phone vanished from her hand.
"Hey, here I am."
"What delicious food has Auntie made this time?"
"Fish, and canned goods and... you know, meat from the boat~"
"Sister, this is like celebrating the New Year! We can eat meat every day!"
"Sixiang likes to eat meat?"
"Mmm, I like it. I also like eating fatty meat, it's so delicious."
Su Qingci joked, "You can't eat too much at once. Take your time to adjust. You got diarrhea last time."
Seeing Sixiang's embarrassed expression, Su Qingci couldn't help but laugh.
Sixiang and Sijia were still children after all, and they had been lacking in nutrition, so they were quite thin and bland.
Last time, when Su Qingci brought chicken and meat to the Su family for a meal with Xu Dasheng's family, both children drank two bowls of greasy soup and ate several large pieces of meat. They couldn't stand it anymore and got up several times that night.
When Su Qingci came downstairs, Su Changzhi was staring outside in a daze, while Liao Fengmei and Sigui were carrying dishes and setting the table.
"Uncle!"
Hearing Su Qingci's call, Su Changzhi snapped out of his daze and asked anxiously, "Qingci, how much longer until we get home?"
Su Qingci walked up to him and helped him toward the table.
He laughed and said, "Uncle, if we drive normally, we should reach Tianjin in about a day and a half."
Liao Fengmei served Su Changzhi a bowl of rice and teased, "Qingci, you have no idea what your uncle is like. He can't sleep at night, he keeps counting how many nautical miles he's traveled and how much distance is left."
"I toss and turn so much that I can't sleep."
"You, at your age, are still acting like a young boy. You've waited all these years, and now you can't even hold on for the last couple of days?"
Su Qingci also chimed in, echoing Liao Fengmei's complaints, "Uncle, Auntie is right. You should eat when you're supposed to eat, take your medicine when you're supposed to take your medicine, and sleep when you're supposed to sleep."
"You don't want to look listless and sickly when you see Grandma, do you?"
Su Changzhi was taken aback and lowered his head in embarrassment.
"Yes, yes, you're right, I was just too anxious."
"I'll eat properly; I'm going to eat two big bowls this time."
