Super War God in the City-Chapter 331: He’s Out of My Control
In the trembling gaze of the crowd, heirs of the Zhongnan Clan successively approached Su Jingguo to present their gifts and pay their respects. Subsequently, to everyone’s astonishment, they made their way to Ling Fan’s side to pay their respects!
The Su Family Patriarch and others watched the profoundly respectful heirs of the Zhongnan Clan at Ling Fan’s side, feeling both shocked and numb, with no expression but astonishment and trembling.
Leng Kaicheng’s complexion looked incredibly unsightly. This display was beyond his capability to manage, and he awaited the arrival of his family’s reinforcements!
"Just as I expected, Young Master Ling’s influence is definitely not as simple as it appeared before!" Leng Chuan silently muttered to himself, at least now seeing the Jing Family and Wen Family, which he had never encountered before.
Su Ziming, observing the silence that fell over the Su Family, snorted coldly inside, "Wasn’t it just last time they were mocking me? Go ahead, laugh now. Now they don’t even dare to let out a peep!"
Su Zixuan felt as if his heart was soaked in cold water, chilling to the bone. Was this guy always hiding so deep?
Su Wenwu also felt it was somewhat tricky. If it were one or two heirs from the Zhongnan Clan, it would be fine, but so many nobility heirs bowing down to him?
Leng Yan felt her understanding was being refreshed time and again, "Just what is this guy’s identity? Sister Su Qiong is so lucky, possessing an overall personal strength not even my cousin could compare to!"

Su Ruoxuan’s bright eyes were almost glued to Ling Fan. At this moment, she even began to feel a bit jealous of Su Qiong.
If she could befriend such a world-class figure, she would also fight to the end against her family.

Based on the strength that Ling Fan displayed at the moment, he could completely disregard the Su Family.
No wonder he had dared to proclaim, "Today, as long as I am here, no one shall dictate your life’s major decisions!"
That statement wasn’t arrogance, but truly had the confidence to back it up. If one day she could marry such a man, truly, she would die with no regrets!
At this time, a young prodigy from the Su Family, Su Ziyun, who had been calm ever since he appeared, went from the initial shock to now completely losing composure, his mental state nearly crumbling.
Among the younger generation of the Su Family, he had always considered himself a leader, fond of showing off. However, today, from beginning to end, he didn’t even get a chance to shine, rubbing his mindset raw!
Family Head Su Wenchang stood in place, rather embarrassed, Su Wenrui stood beside, his old face indiscernible in hue, Su Wenwu’s expression fluctuated, and Su Ting’s face showed fluctuating clarity and obscurity, feeling indescribably stifled inside.
Even the deep and inscrutable Su Jingguo felt somewhat at a loss at this moment, looking in the direction of Ling Fan, uncertain whether to greet him or not.
In this embarrassing and indecisive moment, a series of congratulations sounded from the doorway, "Chairman of Zhongsheng Group has come to congratulate, Chairman of Fudong Pharmaceutical has come to congratulate, Chairman of Colored Mining has come to congratulate... Mayor Zhao has come to congratulate..."
The people in the hall, hearing this, gathered their scattered thoughts and sighed in relief. Luckily, these people were not with Ling Fan; they were normal contacts of the Su Family, and even the Mayor of Jincheng had come!
Not only were everyone relieved, but even Family Head Su Wenchang and Su Jingguo silently breathed a sigh of relief. The arrival of these people not only dissolved the awkward atmosphere from before but also salvaged some face for Su Jingguo.
Otherwise, if all the guests in the hall were Ling Fan’s people, what would have become of the Su Family’s face?
Su Wenchang composed himself, quickly put on a smile, and stood up to greet each visitor, whilst Su Wenrui also forced a smile, greeting the familiar guests warmly.
Su Jingguo personally received Mayor Zhao, but the rich magnates who had just walked in were taken aback upon seeing the assembly around the family of Su Wenfu.
They did not recognize Ling Fan, who wasn’t sitting but standing next to Su Qiong by the side of Su Wenfu and his spouse, and a host of Zhongnan Clan heirs were standing beside Ling Fan.
Therefore, the scene appeared as if a group of people respectfully stood centered around Su Wenfu and his spouse.
However, unbeknownst to them, Su Wenfu and Yu Nianrou were truly on tenterhooks, extremely nervous inside.
"This... what’s the situation with the third child of the Su Family, these people..." Someone suddenly began to mutter internally.
Although they did not recognize Ling Fan or the heirs of the Noble Houses, they did recognize the heads of various Martial Association branches standing at the sidelines.
"Perhaps, these people just happened to be standing there, it seems that the Su Family’s foundation is much deeper than imagined!" someone muttered to themselves, reassessing the strength of the Su Family.
Moreover, what frightened the crowd was that the usually prestigious heads of the Martial Association were now standing respectfully beside a young man, which was indeed thought-provoking. Could it be that the identities of these young people were even higher than those of the Martial Association heads?
Even Mayor Zhao became cautious, "Old Su, I didn’t expect the Su Family to have hidden so deeply. If it weren’t for your 70th birthday today, it would have been difficult to discover this!"
Mayor Zhao glanced in the direction of Ling Fan and the others from the Martial Association, implying a deeper meaning.
Su Jingguo broke out in a cold sweat. Although many people from the Su Family had also come, they somewhat paled in comparison to Ling Fan’s side, and he could only force a smile without much explanation.
Gradually, many more people came to offer birthday greetings. The Su Family was quite reputable in Jincheng and the surrounding areas, almost no one would refuse to give face to the Su Family, and there were many prominent figures coming to congratulate!
Seeing the room filled with guests, Su Jingguo took a deep breath and was about to say a few words of thanks.
Suddenly, a dispassionate and brisk voice came from the entrance, "Old Third, I heard that the Su girl brought back a boyfriend and wants to break off her engagement with the Leng family. What exactly is going on?"
This abrupt inquiry, at this lively birthday banquet, was extremely discordant, like a drop of water in hot oil, suddenly exploding.
All the influential figures who had come to offer congratulations looked at each other, unsure of what was happening.
Su Jingguo’s face darkened; he didn’t expect Leng Kaicheng to have informed the Leng family about the situation beforehand. Now that they had come to demand an explanation, today’s birthday banquet might not be as enjoyable.
Leng Kaicheng was both nervous and excited, his elder brother Leng Zhenyu had arrived!
As everyone looked on in astonishment, two men entered from the doorway, the leader was dignified, none other than the Leng family patriarch Leng Zhenyu. The man following him was also middle-aged, yet no one recognized him.
"Big Brother!" Leng Kaicheng immediately greeted him excitedly, and Leng Chuan could only reluctantly follow him.
"What exactly is going on, let’s not cause any confusion," Leng Zhenyu said indifferently, also leaving himself an out.
Leng Kaicheng approached Leng Zhenyu, hesitated for a moment, "Big Brother, this marriage might be suspended, the boyfriend the Su girl brought back is not simple..."
Before he could finish, Leng Zhenyu pushed his brother aside, gazing intensely at Su Wenchang and Su Jingguo, and spoke flatly, "I don’t care for the reason, doesn’t the Su family owe my Leng family an explanation. Do you intend to allow what happened twenty years ago to occur again over us today?"
All the older generation of the Su family were taken aback by his question, their faces changing color simultaneously, instinctively turning their gazes towards Su Jingguo.
As for the younger generation of the Su Family, they looked bewilderedly at their elders; they did not know the specifics of what had occurred in the family twenty years ago but had heard some secret rumors in private.
Sister Su Qiong’s eyes revealed contemplation as she thought of the secret rumors she had heard before.
Many of the prominent figures who had come to offer congratulations curiously thought, did today’s birthday celebration just trigger a hidden feature?
Su Jingguo took a deep breath, trying to calm himself as he took a deep glance in the direction of Ling Fan. Today’s events were very similar to those of twenty years ago.
However, today’s protagonist was much stronger than the person from twenty years ago. If only the young man back then had half the ability of the one today, perhaps they wouldn’t have been so passive back then.
Somewhat dejected, Su Jingguo sternly said to Leng Zhenyu, "I can make decisions for the Su Family, but I cannot make them for him. As long as you can handle it, the Su family won’t be irritable!"
With that, he lifted his cane and pointed in the direction of Ling Fan!
