Chapter 148 We're even now
Lu Chenyang pulled Su Zichen to a corner to talk.
He didn't want to have anything to do with that arrogant woman, Su Mulan.
But to others, it was obvious that he had chickened out.
"War God Su, now that the Su family's debt of gratitude has been repaid, you'd better not interfere in the affairs of our Chen family," Chen Wentai chuckled coldly.
"Are you teaching me how to do things?" Su Mulan raised a brow and glared at Chen Wentai with lightning speed.
"You..." Even a ruthless man like Chen Wentai, who would wipe out an entire family at the drop of a hat, was noticeably less imposing when facing Su Mulan.
Seeing that Su Mulan was showing signs of anger, he could only snort coldly and did not dare to confront her directly.
"You had ulterior motives, so you deserved to be dealt with."
"Besides, if this gets out, how will you and your Chen family save face?"
"You suffered a small loss, but now you've gotten your revenge, so it's even."
"So, this matter ends here."
"If any of you are not satisfied, you can come at me."
Su Mulan's voice was devoid of any emotion, yet it intimidated everyone present, leaving them trembling with fear.
There's no way around it; his domineering nature stems from his own strength and the power behind him.
Su Mulan is a woman who, despite being a woman, overshadows many of her peers and elders.
Chen Zining clenched his fists, his eyes darting around.
He originally thought that Su Mulan's relationship with the Su family had become very distant.
They wanted to launch a surprise attack on the Su family before Su Mulan could react.
It's unlikely that Su Mulan would turn against the Chen family for a family that has already been destroyed.
But now Su Mulan has suddenly appeared, and her attitude is so tough.
If this continues, I will definitely not gain anything.
Moreover, what he did was indeed not very honorable.
If word gets out, it won't be good for my reputation or the Chen family's reputation.
We can't just kill the Su family and Su Mulan to silence them, can we?
That's an absolute joke.
"Alright, since War God Su has stepped forward, I'll give you that face."
"However, I'll make the unpleasant things clear upfront."
"If there's a next time, don't blame me; I won't care about anyone's feelings."
Chen Zining knew that if he continued, he would hardly gain any advantage.
All they could do was offer a few polite words to save face.
He then waved his hand and quickly left with Chen Wentai and the others.
"Young Master Chen, wasn't it said that Su Mulan's relationship with the Su family has become quite distant?"
"Over the years, Su Mulan hasn't really been involved in the Su family's affairs. Could this be a lie?"
One of the rich kids couldn't help but ask.
"Su Mulan is a woman with lofty ambitions."
"Over the years, we have been intentionally or unintentionally cutting ties with the Su family."
"I think this is very likely his last time coming here."
"On the other hand, I suspect..."
"He probably came because of that good-for-nothing Lu Chenyang."
Chen Zining said in an icy voice.
"That good-for-nothing Lu Chenyang?" Everyone was slightly taken aback.
"Su Mulan unilaterally broke off her engagement with Lu Chenyang, probably because she felt guilty."
"I helped him this time to repay the favor, and we will have nothing to do with each other again in the future."
"Only by severing ties with family and the past can he be free of all attachments and move forward without hesitation."
Chen Wentai then spoke up and offered a few explanations.
Everyone suddenly realized and nodded, thinking that this was most likely the reason.
"Young Master Chen, are we really just going to let that good-for-nothing go like this?" A rich second-generation heir, feeling aggrieved, couldn't help but ask.
"Let him go? How could that be?"
"I have never suffered such a loss before."
"If we let him go, where will I put my face?"
Chen Zining said with a ferocious expression.
“But, since War God Su has already stepped in, what about us…” the rich kid whispered a reminder.
“Of course not in front of him, but Su Mulan can’t follow that good-for-nothing 24 hours a day, can she?” Chen Zining turned to look at Chen Wentai. “Third Steward, I’m entrusting this matter to you.”
"Don't worry, young master." Chen Wentai nodded gently in agreement.
After confirming that Chen Zining and the others had left, the Su family members finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Sister Mulan, thank goodness you arrived in time."
"Otherwise, we wouldn't know how badly we were bullied by that bastard Chen Zining."
Su Youfei rushed forward and thanked Su Mulan, showing great enthusiasm.
Su Dongcheng stepped forward, his mood somewhat complicated, and said, "Mulan, we really have to thank you this time."
"I thought..."
"I thought you weren't coming."
Su Mulan's expression was somewhat indifferent. She didn't respond to the question but instead asked, "Where is Grandma?"
"We knew that Chen Zining and Chen Wentai were coming, so we had someone forcibly take Grandma away."
"Otherwise, even Grandma will be humiliated along with us."
Su Youfei still felt lingering fear when she thought about what had just happened.
"Alright, this matter is over, so there's no need to think about it anymore."
"China is about to hold a major military skills competition, so I might be very busy."
"I am currently in Zhonghai City, waiting for a senior."
"I will leave Zhonghai City after he comes out of the mountains."
"I won't be coming back often in the future."
Su Mulan spoke calmly.
Su Dongcheng looked somewhat embarrassed, and Su Youfei's smile froze on her face.
Although Su Mulan did not say it explicitly, her meaning was already quite clear.
From now on, the Su family will have to find their own solutions to any problems they encounter; he can't always step in to help.
Su Mulan was adopted by the old man of the Su family, and according to the old man's wishes, she was counted as part of Su Dongcheng's branch.
However, she was raised by the old man from a young age, so she was closest to him.
Later, Su Mulan went to the war department, and the old man passed away.
Therefore, their relationship with the Su family gradually faded.
After giving instructions to Su Dongcheng, Su Youfei, and the others, Su Mulan slowly walked towards Lu Chenyang.
He raised his head slightly and said calmly, "I said I would help you three times. Counting the time with Xiao Wending, that's twice already."
"You only have one last chance now. Feel free to make any requests you may have."
"After I help you, we'll be even."
Lu Chenyang was slightly taken aback. Xiao Wending?
So it turns out this woman is taking credit for the Sanjiang Chamber of Commerce's achievements herself.
However, Lu Chenyang was too lazy to argue with this woman.
I just think this woman is really annoying.
If he hadn't suddenly appeared today, Chen Zining and Chen Wentai would definitely have been carried away.
The Chen family can now prepare a grand and lavish wedding for the two of them.
Upon hearing Su Mulan's words, everyone in the Su family was slightly taken aback.
Only then did I remember that Su Mulan and Lu Chenyang had this connection.
But afterwards, she felt even more contempt for Lu Chenyang.
No wonder this guy is so arrogant; it turns out Su Mulan promised to cover for him.
Now Su Mulan only has one last favor left to ask of him. Let's see if he dares to be so reckless again.
"You don't owe me any favors, and I don't need your help."
"From now on, we're even."
Lu Chenyang had absolutely no intention of having anything to do with this woman.
