The Road to Becoming a Son-in-Law

Chapter 253 Encountering Li Jiaojiao Again

Chapter 253 Encountering Li Jiaojiao Again

Xu Xuan looked at the woman in front of him, who was looking at Chen Feng with a shy expression and calling him "Young Master Chen," and was puzzled.

The atmosphere between Chen Feng and He Fei was obvious to anyone with eyes. Although neither of them said it outright, Xu Xuan knew that Chen Feng's feelings for He Fei were definitely not ordinary.

What was the relationship between this woman in front of him and Chen Feng? And, he wasn't sure if he was seeing things, but this woman looked very familiar.

Chen Feng didn't recognize Li Jiaojiao and asked with a puzzled look, "Who are you?"

Li Jiaojiao's expression froze for a moment, then she said, "It's me, Jiaojiao. It's only been a short time since we last met, how come Young Master Chen doesn't recognize me?"

Chen Feng then realized that the woman in front of him was Li Jiaojiao, and his expression immediately turned cold. Seeing Li Jiaojiao trying to pounce on him just like when they first met, Chen Feng instantly stepped back. Li Jiaojiao not only failed to touch Chen Feng, but also fell to the ground.

"Jiaojiao, what's wrong with you?" Li's father appeared out of nowhere, helped Li Jiaojiao up from the ground, and looked angrily at Chen Feng: "Mr. Chen, my daughter treated you like a benefactor, how could you treat my daughter like this?"

After returning home that day, although Li's father could tell that Chen Feng really had no interest in Jiao Jiao, he was still unwilling to let go of such an excellent and wealthy son-in-law.

So I've been lingering around the Crescent Moon Tower for several days now, and I've finally met Chen Feng. Li's father's plan is for Li Jiaojiao to pounce on Chen Feng, while he pretends to witness everything and forces Chen Feng to marry Li Jiaojiao.

Unexpectedly, upon seeing Li Jiaojiao, Chen Feng immediately stepped back, letting her fall to the ground. Li's father, his face even more furious, said to Chen Feng, "Mr. Chen, my Jiaojiao is a weak woman, yet you let her fall in front of you. What are your intentions?"

Chen Feng looked coldly at Li's father, "What does it have to do with me that she fell down in front of me?"

"Furthermore, if I'm not mistaken, you've been watching the whole time. If that's the case, why didn't you come up and help her? She's your daughter."

"I..." Li's father choked. Of course, he couldn't help her up. He had deliberately let Li Jiaojiao fall towards Chen Feng. If he helped her up, the plan would not be able to proceed.

Mr. Li stubbornly retorted, "I didn't see it, but as the owner of such a large establishment as Crescent Moon Tower, Mr. Li was completely indifferent when a weak woman fell right in front of him. It's truly a sign of the world going to the dogs."

Chen Feng's lips curled into a mocking smile. "So what can you do to me?"

“You have to take responsibility,” Li’s father said recklessly. “My daughter fell in front of you. If you don’t take responsibility, I will report you to the authorities.”

Chen Feng and Xu Xuan both looked at Li's father with strange eyes. Just because Li Jiaojiao fell in front of them and they did nothing, they wanted Chen Feng to take responsibility? If he didn't take responsibility, they would report him to the authorities?

Xu Xuan couldn't help but say, "Are you guys out of your minds? Should I get you a doctor to take a look?"

Only then did Li's father notice that there were other people next to Chen Feng. After recognizing who they were, Li's father's face turned pale, then turned green, his expression a complex mix of emotions.

In the end, he didn't say anything, and quickly left with Li Jiaojiao in his arms.

Chen Feng recalled the expressions on Li's father and Li Jiaojiao's faces before they left. "You know them?"

"I know them." Xu Xuan curled his lip as he looked at the two disheveled figures.

Previously, the Xu family and the Li family's clothing store had cooperated once. For a period of time, it was Li Jiaojiao who delivered goods to the mansion. Every time she saw Xu Xuan, Li Jiaojiao would move closer to him. Xu Xuan ignored her. However, he later ran into Li's father, who insisted on asking him if he had feelings for Li Jiaojiao.

Xu Xuan felt that he wasn't blind to have fallen for such a woman. Li's father kept holding Xu Xuan back, preventing him from leaving. Xu Xuan was in a bad mood at the time, so he directly ordered his servants to beat up Li's father. Afterwards, he terminated the cooperation between the Xu family and the Li family's clothing store. From then on, Li's father and Li Jiaojiao never dared to appear in front of Xu Xuan again.

Thinking about Li Jiaojiao's earlier harassment of Chen Feng, Xu Xuan asked curiously, "And how did you meet them?"

These two, the Li father and daughter, are no good people. Xu Xuan wondered how Chen Feng had offended them. He felt a little smug.

Seeing Xu Xuan's gloating, Chen Feng shook his head helplessly and told Xu Xuan about how he was being harassed by Li Jiaojiao.

After listening to Chen Feng's story, Xu Xuan couldn't help but clutch his stomach and laugh until tears almost streamed down his face. "Chen Feng, how did you manage to get so unlucky as to be entangled with those two?"

In Xu Xuan's opinion, the two fathers and daughters in the Li family were like leeches, once they stuck to him, he couldn't shake them off. When he was first entangled with them, he was extremely annoyed, especially on one occasion when the father even tried to get Li Jiaojiao to climb into his bed.

Xu Xuan was particularly puzzled and even suspected that Li Jiaojiao might be an enemy of Li's father, because he had never seen anyone let their daughter sleep with another man for their own benefit. Until that time, Xu Xuan was so disgusted by Li's father and Li Jiaojiao that he directly stopped cooperating with the Li family. Afterwards, Li's father continued to pester him and refused to give up. Helpless, he had to have Li's father beaten up again, and only then did the two of them dare not bother him anymore.

"How did you get to know them?" Chen Feng asked.

“Our family used to work with the Li family.” After saying that, Xu Xuan’s face was full of disgust. “You have no idea how disgusting Li Jiaojiao and her father are.”

When Chen Feng learned that Li Jiaojiao had almost gotten into Xu Xuan's bed, he became the one gloating. Chen Feng patted Xu Xuan on the shoulder and said, seemingly to comfort him, "You've had it pretty tough."

Xu Xuan: "..."

However, Xu Xuan had also realized from what he had just seen that the Li family father and daughter were probably going to entangle Chen Feng this time. He and Chen Feng were now friends, and as a friend, he naturally couldn't just stand by and watch his good friend being harassed like this. Xu Xuan said, "Don't you want to get rid of them? It's not a good idea for them to keep bothering you like this."

"I want to." Chen Feng felt a wave of disgust when he thought of Li Jiaojiao. He Fei had caught Li Jiaojiao pestering him several times. He was jealous and worried that she might actually get angry with him.

Chen Feng: "Do you have a solution?"

"Of course."

When the Xu family and the Li family cooperated before, Xu Xuan learned about the Li family's situation and investigated their shady dealings. This was another reason why Xu Xuan asked Master Xu to stop cooperating with the Xu family.

The Li family's clothing store has been operating in the city for decades and has always had a good reputation, which is why the Xu family chose to cooperate with the Li family in the first place.

It was only through investigation that Xu Xuan discovered that Li's father had been substituting inferior materials for superior ones in the fabrics supplied to the Xu family.
