Chapter 920: Chapter 910: Killing Intent

After leaving the police station, Su Qing took Wang Xing to the hospital to visit Shen Yi. As soon as they entered, they saw Old Su had already dealt with the facial injuries and was sitting on the sofa smoking.

The ashtray on the coffee table in the small living room was already filled with cigarette butts, and Su Qing’s mother, Zhou Hui, was wiping her tears off to the side.

"Mom"

"Hello, Auntie. Hello, Uncle."

Su Qing and Wang Xing greeted them one after the other.

Seeing her son had arrived, Zhou Hui couldn’t hold it any longer. Tears immediately flowed from her eyes as she quickly stepped forward to look at Su Qing: "Son, what exactly happened? Your dad was sent to the hospital last night. Who did we end up offending?"

"If things really don’t work out, let’s just leave it at that. It’s okay to lose some money; as long as everyone’s okay, that’s what matters!"

Clearly, Zhou Hui was already aware of the events that happened at home last night, even knowing that the house was trashed and her own husband was slightly injured.

Since Su Qing got his marriage license, a smile had never left her face. But who could have thought that in just a few short days, their daughter-in-law would get into a car accident, be hospitalized and fall into a coma, and her own husband would face trouble, with the house also being vandalized.

Now, at home, only she and her son remained unscathed. Nothing else could happen. Fortunately, their daughter was studying in the capital city and was safe.

In the past, they had little, but now their family was affluent and prosperous. As long as people were unharmed, money was of no concern. She didn’t want to live in fear any longer.

"It’s okay, Mom. Don’t worry. As long as your son is here, nothing like this will happen again," Su Qing said calmly, patting his mother’s back.

"Son, about those people from yesterday..."

"Just some small-time troublemakers, no need to worry. Once I’m free, I’ll deal with them and their families... Forget it, Mom, hasn’t Xiao Yi woken up yet?" Su Qing asked.

He didn’t want to say too much to worry his family. Even Shen Yi didn’t know about this from the narration perspective; he was confident he could deal with those obstructing his path.

This world isn’t always sunny, for where there is light, darkness will follow.

If conventional means couldn’t protect his family and seek justice, he wouldn’t hesitate to use unconventional methods.

However, with the narration, he didn’t need to foolishly go in with a knife for a desperate one-for-one.

The era where one could conquer the world through personal prowess alone is long gone; now society is all about money. Luckily, in terms of money, while he couldn’t match the bigshots, he had enough.

As for not fighting against authority, that’s a truth, but nowadays there’s another factor: public opinion.

Any matter big enough, or with enough money invested, can stir up significant public opinion, prompting thorough investigations automatically.

Although Jiang City is a first-tier city, it’s just a city, not reaching the national level. Most importantly, ’power’ isn’t invincible; everything has its weakness.

And the best way to counter ’power’ is with ’power.’

He didn’t possess it, but others do, and once someone reaches a certain level of political power, they inevitably acquire political enemies.

No one says power has to be yours—just leveraging the authority to their benefit is enough, and the price is merely adequate trade-offs.

Finding a person’s weakness if they were an ordinary person might be difficult, but with the narration, he could easily pinpoint the opponent’s weakness.

Hearing this, Zhou Hui shook her head: "Not yet. Oddly, the doctor said Xiao Yi merely suffered a head injury, resulting in a coma, but this long duration is unusual. Son, do you think there’s something wrong with Xiao Yi?"

To this, Su Qing smiled and said, "Mom, what are you thinking? Medicine is so advanced now. Xiao Yi’s minor injuries aren’t an issue. You forgot last time I was caught in the rain, got a fever, and was out cold for more than a day? It’s nothing!"

Afterward, Su Qing glanced at Old Su and asked, "Dad, how are your injuries?"

"It’s okay, minor issues, already taken care of," Old Su answered in a deep voice, passing a cigarette to Wang Xing.

"That’s good. Recently, don’t go to school or return home—stay here at the hospital with Mom. Buy whatever you need directly. Rest assured, your son here has arranged everything to ensure our family’s safety!" Su Qing declared with determination.

Hearing these words, Su Hongye took a deep breath and nodded. He knew he couldn’t oppose his son. Besides, although he was older, he’d never faced such situations before and wasn’t very knowledgeable. For now, he could only rely on his son.

"Alright. It’s a good time to take a break. With your mom and me here, Xiao Yi will be fine. Focus on your own matters!"

In response, Su Qing nodded. Indeed, with his parents around, his mind was at ease, allowing him to tackle the external matters without worries.

Subsequently, Su Qing entered the ward, holding the still-unconscious Shen Yi’s hand, feeling a twinge of heartache.

"Always calling ’sister, sister’ all the time, won’t you quiet down now! Don’t rush to wake up, sleep a few more days, and when you wake up, everything will be over, and we’ll get married by then!"

As he spoke, the narration reminded him

[Auntie Shen is stable; however, the head injury was severe enough that it’ll take a few more days to recover completely with rest!]

The narration reassured him immensely, as it had never been wrong before.

After tucking Shen Yi in and tidying her hair, Su Qing took a deep breath and left.

Staying here wouldn’t relieve the pressure outside. Since he was a man, he must guard against those external pressures.

"Mom, Dad, I’m off. Don’t worry about Xiao Yi; if anything happens, call the doctor to check!" Su Qing instructed his parents. Zhou Hui wanted to say something but was stopped by Old Su.

"Go on, your mom and I don’t need you worrying!"

"Alright!"

With that, Su Qing left directly, and Wang Xing hurriedly followed.

Walking through the hospital corridor, Su Qing spoke while heading out:

"Old A!"

"What’s up, Qingzi?"

"I need you to do something!"

"Whatever it is, just say it. As long as I can do it, I’ll get it done!"

"No need for death; help me contact Da Qiang and Slim Dog, have them come together quickly. Also, tell Slim Dog not to worry about work; I’ll handle that!" Su Qing said gravely.

"Sure, but can I ask why you’re calling them back? Da Qiang is fine, but Slim Dog is out of town..."

"Tell them I need reliable people to help. I’m not at ease using others. Also, from now on, I won’t contact anyone on the phone. I’ll communicate all plans in person, and one of you will let the others know what to do!"

While speaking, Su Qing’s eyes glinted dangerously like a winter chill, bearing intense killing intent, his voice void of emotion.

Hearing this, Wang Xing quivered, but immediately responded, "Alright, no problem. I’ll get in touch right away!"

"Yeah," Su Qing pondered and spoke again, "Call back A Zhen too; with San’er’s connection, she’s trustworthy."

"Understood!"

Speaking, the two left the hospital, each getting into separate cars and heading in different directions.

If they were going to make a move, they would make it big. Wang Xing had a family and needed to explain certain matters to them.

Su Qing was heading to Qingshui Garden, to seek assistance from his landlord’s wife.

The reason he gathered a few reliable gang members was due to their trustworthiness, but also he had to ensure their safety, achieving his goal while removing himself from blame, as was the case with Bai Longsheng.

But this time, the opponent was formidable, and he couldn’t be cautious enough.

As the saying goes, to settle external troubles, one must first secure the inside. This was why he wanted to see the landlord’s wife—to secure the inside.

Tang Tianyu would certainly cause more trouble. He had to provide a safe environment for his family, allowing him to deal with them hands-on.
