Sun Mei pondered for a moment, it seemed like it wasn't wrong.
Tang Zhenbang was kicked out of the Tang Family, and their own status wouldn't be affected at all, but they'd still be looked down upon.
However, if Tang Qiulu could continue as the person in charge, then it'd be different. Tang Qiulu's rise in the Su Family would mean their own status would rise as well!
Going out, we'd also have extra face.
"Where's Qiulu?" Sun Mei turned and asked Su Changfeng.
"She's sick, resting in her room," Su Changfeng replied nonchalantly.
"Sick? Why would she suddenly get sick?" Sun Mei walked into the room looking quite worried.
At this time, Tang Qiulu absolutely couldn't let anything affect her position in the Su Family!
Upon arriving at their bedroom, she found Tang Qiulu looking perfectly fine, without a hint of illness, so she asked, "Qiulu, do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?"
Tang Qiulu gave a mysterious smile, then whispered, "I'm fine, Mom. Su Changfeng told me to pretend to be sick."
Sun Mei was momentarily stunned, then understood what Su Changfeng meant, whispering, "I didn't expect that coward Su Changfeng to be so cunning."
"Mom, can you stop calling him a coward and the like?" Tang Qiulu said a bit displeased.
Sun Mei glared at Tang Qiulu, "Even though this coward did well this time, it's just a trick, it's not his skill. Could it be you're developing feelings for this coward because of this?"
"We've been married for three years, Mom."
Sun Mei had always been thinking about when there'd be a chance to kick Su Changfeng out of the Tang Family. But now Tang Qiulu was speaking for Su Changfeng, and besides, she had already accepted marrying Su Changfeng, which made her quite angry.
"Tang Qiulu! I'm telling you, don't have feelings for him. If you stay with this coward for life, you'll definitely not be happy. I'm a living example," Sun Mei said angrily.
Throughout the past few years with Su Changfeng, the emotions between Tang Qiulu and him had become so subtle. If it weren't for the collaboration with Weishui Real Estate, she wouldn't have divorced Su Changfeng either. Moreover, the reason the collaboration could be completed was entirely because of Su Changfeng.
Sun Mei had a poor attitude towards Su Changfeng, entirely because she felt he had no ambition.
If she could tell her mom that the collaboration with Weishui Real Estate succeeded because it was led by Su Changfeng, it would definitely change her mother's perception of him.
But...
Tang Qiulu couldn't help but sigh, because Su Changfeng didn't want her to reveal it.
"Mom's not angry at you, she just doesn't want you to end up like her," Sun Mei realized her earlier tone was too harsh, and softened it a bit.
"Mom, give Su Changfeng a year, I think he will definitely surprise you," Tang Qiulu knew Su Changfeng was changing for her. Although she didn't know exactly what was changing, she believed that one day, Su Changfeng would astonish those who thought he was a coward.
"Hmph," Sun Mei snorted contemptuously, "He's like your dad, a complete coward! Even giving this coward ten years, so what? Look at your dad, how long has it been? He's still useless."
"Mom, you've been living together for so long, even though Dad hasn't been that successful, he's very good to you, right? Not to mention, Dad never once went to look for other women, right? Look at the uncles, which one of them hasn't kept several mistresses? Money can't be the measure of happiness," Tang Qiulu said.
Despite being very angry, Sun Mei knew what Tang Qiulu said was indeed true.
In the Tang Family, Tang Zhenhua was indeed poor and had no prospects at all. However, he'd never gone looking for other women. Compared to others, he was indeed very good.
"Alright, I'll give this coward a year to see what he can achieve. But I'm telling you, you can't give him your body," Sun Mei said.
Tang Qiulu nodded, although she could face her feelings for Su Changfeng now, when it came to this topic, she wasn't prepared.
After Sun Mei went out, she saw Tang Zhenhua and Su Changfeng standing there.
"Where are those two guys? Weren't they asking for our help? Where are they?" Sun Mei asked.
Tang Zhenhua looked at Su Changfeng with fear in his eyes.
Just now, Su Changfeng had strongly driven Tang Xiangdong away, and Tang Zhenhua had never seen Su Changfeng so fierce that he didn't even have the courage to stop him.
His son-in-law had been a coward for three years, so why did he suddenly change? Even daring to hit Tang Xiangdong!
"I was the one who made Tang Xiangdong and his son leave. Since Grandma changed the project leader, she should come herself," Su Changfeng said calmly.
After Su Changfeng finished speaking, Tang Zhenhua and Sun Mei were like they were struck by lightning, feeling completely stunned.
Isn't this seeking death, wanting Grandma to come herself?
"Su Changfeng, are you crazy?" Tang Zhenhua stood up in shock.
Sun Mei was equally shocked, saying, "Su Changfeng, do you have the right to speak here? Do you know what will happen?"
Grandma's status in the Tang Family is akin to Cixi, although Sun Mei is a fierce woman, she was obedient in Grandma's presence.
"She will come," Su Changfeng said with great composure and then went to the kitchen.
Suddenly, Sun Mei felt that she couldn't see through Su Changfeng anymore. Was he really out of his mind this time? Or was he really crazy?
"Zhenhua, what's going on here? Did he really get involved with something unclean?" Sun Mei asked quietly.
Tang Zhenhua shook his head, "Not sure, but this time, he seems different from before."
Sun Mei thought of what Tang Qiulu had said before about his potential… What kind of potential?
"Do you think Grandma will come?" Sun Mei asked.
Tang Zhenhua smiled helplessly, "Grandma would never come, she just stays at her villa and never goes anywhere else. If anyone could invite Grandma to this house, it would only be the villa at Xianwu Mountain."
Sun Mei nodded, Grandma had always wanted the Tang Family to have a place at the villa on Xianwu Mountain, but as time went by, it was still just a hope.
The next day.
Tang Qiulu had a habit of morning runs, she basically got up at six every morning.
After tidying up, Tang Qiulu went up to Su Changfeng and said, "Still pretending to sleep?"
Su Changfeng sat up awkwardly, realizing that even though he went to see Tang Qiulu get off work every day, she knew he followed her for a morning run.
