Chapter 48: Who Dares to Cause Trouble in My Su Family?

On the other side.

Crow and his junior had just returned to Hongxing Gang.

At that moment, his phone rang.

“Who the hell is calling me at this hour?” Crow muttered, pulling out his phone to see which reckless fool dared to disturb him now.

Yet, when he saw the name on the screen, his phone slipped from his fingers and dropped to the ground with a snap.

Crow hurriedly scrambled to pick it up, then answered the call.

“Hello, Young Master Su, what can I do for you?”

Ever since witnessing Su Yifan’s true power earlier, Crow had been deeply impressed and awed by him, vowing to cling tightly to Young Master Su.

“Enough with the nonsense. I have a task for you.”

“What is it, Young Master Su? Please tell me.”

“Investigate a family for me—the Zhou family. Their son, Zhou Zheng, is a student at Southeast University.”

“Young Master Su, there’s no need to investigate. I know Zhou Zheng; that punk has caused trouble for many respectable girls. His family is in real estate development. May I ask, Young Master Su, what exactly do you want?”

“I want the Zhou family to disappear from Yuncheng. Can you do it?”

Upon hearing this, Crow thought for a moment, then replied resolutely, “Rest assured, Young Master Su. At the latest, you’ll hear news of trouble for the Zhou family by tomorrow.”

“Very good. Do this well and I’ll owe you a favor,” Su Yifan said.

“Young Master Su, it’s an honor for Crow to serve you.”

Suddenly, Crow recalled Su Yifan mentioning earlier that something had happened to his sister, so he asked, “Young Master Su, did that fool Zhou Zheng offend your sister?”

Su Yifan didn’t answer and simply hung up.

Crow, hearing the call had ended, slowly lowered his phone and murmured,

“Zhou family, Zhou family… Of all your mistakes, offending Young Master Su’s sister is the worst. You can’t blame me for what’s coming.”

…

Half an hour later.

Su Yifan and his sister, Su Meng, returned home.

They had barely set foot inside when,

A military off-road vehicle pulled up at the entrance of the Su residence.

Three people stepped out; the leader was a middle-aged man in military uniform.

He radiated righteousness, his features were stern and resolute, his posture upright, several medals pinned to his chest, his expression grave.

The other two, had Su Yifan been present, he would have recognized instantly—they were Xie Wei and Deng Gang.

“General, this is the Su residence,” Xie Wei said.

The general nodded, “Good. Go and have that Su Yifan come out to greet me.”

“Uh…”

Xie Wei lowered her head, somewhat troubled.

“What’s wrong? Is there a problem?” the general asked.

Xie Wei dared not conceal anything, replying, “General, Su Yifan’s personality is peculiar. Based on my understanding, he’s unlikely to come out and greet you.”

She hadn’t meant to say this, but she truly couldn’t predict Su Yifan’s temperament and could only report honestly.

“What nonsense?” The general waved his hand dismissively, his voice stern. “I have personally come to the Su family, and he dares not show me respect?”

Before arriving, he had heard some rumors about Su Yifan—said to be powerful and unruly.

But in his many years, he’d seen all kinds of young men. In his eyes, it was nothing more than youthful arrogance; with some discipline, he could be molded.

“But…” Xie Wei tried to speak again.

The general cut her off, “No buts. Just go. I don’t believe he can turn the world upside down.”

Seeing the general’s insistence, Xie Wei said nothing more and turned to enter the Su residence.

At that moment, two Su family guards stepped forward.

“Who are you, and what business brings you to the Su family?”

“Gentlemen, I am Xie Wei. We’ve met before,” Xie Wei explained. “We are from the Dragon Group, and this is General Tang Shengguo, a high-ranking official in the Xia Kingdom’s military.”

Hearing that the visitors were state officials, and a general no less, one of the guards asked,

“What brings you to the Su residence?”

Tang Shengguo was instantly displeased.

Did the Su family have no sense of protocol? They had introduced themselves, yet shouldn’t these people invite them in or at least notify someone? Besides, they were mere guards—how dare they question such matters?

Xie Wei sensed the general’s mood and quickly said, “We are here to discuss important matters with your young master.”

“We ask you to inform him.”

The two guards exchanged a glance; one turned and hurried inside.

“Please don’t take offense. Our young master has ordered that without his permission, no one may enter,” the guard said respectfully.

“Oh, it’s fine,” Xie Wei replied with an awkward smile.

Tang Shengguo behind her was fuming, but given this was their territory, he refrained from saying more.

Meanwhile,

The guard entered the Su residence’s living room.

Su Yifan was seated, sipping tea. Seeing the guard approach, he asked, “What is it?”

“Young master, three people seek an audience.”

“Two of them you’ve met before—they claim to be from the Dragon Group. The other one says he’s a general.”

“A general?” Su Yifan frowned.

What’s going on? He didn’t recall knowing any generals. Where did this general come from? Yet, since he arrived with those two, they probably weren’t enemies.

“Did they say why they’re here?” Su Yifan asked.

“No, only that they wish to discuss something important with you. They said nothing else.”

“Nothing at all? How mysterious,” Su Yifan mused, unable to guess their purpose. He decided not to bother and said calmly, “Go out and tell them to go back to wherever they came from.”

“Yes, young master,” the guard replied, turning to leave.

Moments later,

The guard returned outside. “The young master says you should return to where you came from.”

Xie Wei was stunned.

Tang Shengguo was even more incredulous.

What?

The general himself had arrived, and Su Yifan responded like this? He wouldn’t even give the general the courtesy of a meeting?

“Did Su Yifan really say that?” Tang Shengguo suppressed his anger and asked.

“That is exactly what our young master said,” the guard affirmed.

With confirmation, Tang Shengguo could no longer contain himself, berating, “Well, well! Today, I must see who gave him the nerve to speak like this!”

As his words fell, a powerful aura erupted from him.

“General, please don’t!” Xie Wei and Deng Gang were shocked.

They had witnessed Su Yifan’s strength firsthand—he was not one to hesitate at taking lives.

If the general tried to force his way in and Su Yifan got angry, it would be disastrous.

“No one stop me! I want to see where his confidence comes from!” Tang Shengguo was deaf to all persuasion.

Since his appointment, no one had ever treated him like this. Now, a mere youngster dared turn him away.

Enough is enough!

The two guards, seeing the general attempt to force his way in, readied themselves for battle.

Just then,

“Who is it, daring to cause trouble at my Su residence?”

A calm, slightly lazy voice sounded from within.

The next moment,

Su Yifan strolled out leisurely from inside.
