Chapter 966: Chapter 965: Suffering in Silence

Han Xue, who had been waiting all this while, looked at Su Changfeng stepping off the plane, and tears had already stained her face.

Because Han Xue didn’t know that this time not only her husband, whom she missed day and night, was returning, but also their not-so-long-born daughter, Sunian, the most important people in his life, were finally coming home, and their family was finally reunited.

“Han Xue, I’ve kept you waiting too long.” Su Changfeng gently wiped the tears from Han Xue’s face.

During the time he was absent, she was still at home alone, encountering many upheavals, and he wasn’t there with her. Su Changfeng felt very guilty in his heart.

Han Xue quickly shook her head. Even though a lot had happened recently that she couldn’t handle alone, even though Su Changfeng was not by her side when she gave birth to Sunian, Han Xue never blamed him. She believed in her heart that he would come back, and that he must have been tied up with something very important to not have time to return home.

“As long as you can come back, I will wait for you no matter how long it takes.” Han Xue said with a smile to Su Changfeng.

Looking at the understanding Han Xue, Su Changfeng felt a bit of pain in his heart. He must take good care of her and not let her suffer such grievances anymore. So, in a soft voice, Su Changfeng said, “You’ve probably been waiting here for a long time. Let’s go home first, and you can tell me what happened after I left home.”

Although many were eager to talk to Su Changfeng, Zhu Lie’s men were surrounding them, and none dared to act rashly. After all, Su Changfeng was reuniting with his wife, and the atmosphere between them was tender. If they went over to disturb, let alone annoy Su Changfeng, it would almost be suicidal. So everyone stood quietly.

Even though there were quite a few people welcoming him, once Su Changfeng left with Han Xue, they all dispersed on their own.

Seeing everyone finally leave, the airport staff breathed a sigh of relief, as there had indeed been too many people just now. If something had gone wrong, it would’ve been difficult to handle.

“Son, you’re finally back. You really are Dad’s lucky star, being on the same flight as Su Changfeng.”

“Son, for so many years, you haven’t been home and may not know how much Jiang City has changed. Now the Gu Family is no longer the number one family; it’s the Shen Family.”

“Just the person behind you just now was Su Changfeng. He is the most powerful figure in Jiang City now.”

“You were on the same flight as him. If you can say a few words to him and leave a good impression, our family will truly prosper.”

“Hmm? Son, are you feeling unwell? You came off the plane and haven’t said a word.”

When the naive boy’s father picked him up, he was extremely excited, as being in contact with Su Changfeng was a rare opportunity for their family. However, the naive boy couldn’t speak of his troubles.

However, the naive boy’s father didn’t know his son actually did speak to Su Changfeng but ended up offending him, even running to Su Changfeng’s seat as the plane was about to land to threaten him, saying he would show him once they reached Jiang City!

The naive boy never expected to unwittingly offend such an important figure. He wished he could turn back time to the plane and would never have offended Su Changfeng; instead, he would have shamelessly tried to curry his favor.

“Son, what’s wrong? Did something happen?” the naive boy’s father asked. Knowing his son well, who was usually very talkative, his silence made his father anxious since getting off the plane. His pale face suggested something had happened.

Yet, the naive boy still didn’t speak, as he simply couldn’t bring himself to, nor did he have the courage to tell his father. If you were observant, you’d notice not only was he pale, but his body was trembling uncontrollably, and cold sweat was constantly forming on his forehead.

Seeing his son silent, the naive boy’s father knew that his usually arrogant son, coupled with the mention of Su Changfeng, made a terrible thought cross his mind.

Could his son have actually offended Su Changfeng on the plane?

When this idea crossed his mind, the naive boy’s father was stunned, shaking his head to quickly rid himself of the thought.

Jiang City now was dictated by Su Changfeng. Who would dare offend such a grand figure? That would be suicide, wouldn’t it?

Su Changfeng was no longer the person he was years ago, whom anyone could bully.

“Son… you… you didn’t do anything you shouldn’t have on the plane, did you? Did you offend Su Changfeng?” the naive boy’s father, pointing at his son, asked in disbelief.

The naive boy didn’t speak; he merely nodded slightly.

Seeing his son nod, the naive boy’s father was nearly driven mad.

His son actually offended Su Changfeng—wasn’t that courting death? Now, let alone any prosperous development, could their family even survive in Jiang City?

Just one word from Su Changfeng, without needing to lift a finger, others’ spittle could drown their family.

“Damn it, are your eyes that bad? Damn it, who couldn’t you offend? You dared to provoke Su Changfeng,” the naive boy’s father cursed and beat his son harshly. Though this was his cherished son, whom he usually wouldn’t harm, now he lashed out in anger, almost wishing to beat his son to death.

The naive boy didn’t dare breathe heavily, let alone retort, because it was the first time his father hit him.

Even though he kept protecting his head. However, the father hit too hard, and it was clear from his face that he had just been thoroughly beaten.

After the naive boy and his father arrived home, when the mother, who hadn’t seen him in years, saw her son beaten like this, her heart ached immensely.

“My dear son, quickly tell mommy who had the audacity to hit you, and I’ll make them pay,” the naive boy’s mother said, touching his face.

The naive boy dared not speak, but he glanced at his father, whose gesture his mother understood, and said, “What’s wrong with you? Our son just came back, why did you hit him? And so hard, if our son holds a grudge and doesn’t take care of you when you’re old, what then?”
