Chapter 1987 - 2073: Dragon Gate Village

Chapter 1987: Chapter 2073: Dragon Gate Village

Su Xuan was somewhat surprised and said that this Wang Jianlin was really hard to meet. He had used many means, but it was always difficult to get close. Strangely, Wang Jianlin’s son, Wang Zicong, was also nowhere to be seen. So Su Xuan was genuinely curious. Is the Wang Family really this low-key in the Imperial Capital? It’s completely unbelievable.

"Yes, but that was decades ago. I heard from my father that Wang Jianlin’s hometown is the same village as ours!"

"Really?!"

Su Xuan was also a bit surprised in his heart. To be honest, he did not expect Wang Jianlin to actually be a fellow townsman!

"Does your father know Wang Jianlin, or is there anyone from his family in your village?"

Su Xuan asked excitedly. If he could find Wang Jianlin through his family, it would be a great thing. After all, Su Xuan knew very well that Wang Jianlin might be crucial to the success or failure of the United Alliance!

"There shouldn’t be any. Brother, you want to find Wang Jianlin!"

Looking at Su Xuan, for a moment, he was also curious.

"Yes, does your hometown still have anyone from his family?"

"I’m not sure about that, but it seems there’s none. Actually, you don’t know that the Wang Family is not really from Dragon Gate; they migrated. Back then, they were very poor in the village. Later, after Wang Jianlin became successful, the whole family moved out and never came back!"

"I see, well, never mind then!" Su Xuan was also feeling frustrated. Wang Jianlin was really too deep and unfathomable, and even if there were relatives here, they probably moved away long ago!

When Su Xuan and Dong Jianwen arrived at Dragon Gate, it was already past three in the afternoon. Dragon Gate was indeed a place with beautiful scenery, with clear mountains and rivers. For Dong Jianwen’s family, it was definitely bustling and lively. Dong Jianwen’s parents didn’t expect their son to find such an excellent bride.

The whole family was joyfully preparing to have a big banquet the next day to celebrate!

Su Xuan sat at Dong Jianwen’s doorstep, looking at the scenery in Dragon Gate, thinking it’s quite a comfortable place!

"Brother, would you like me to take you for a walk?"

As the host, Dong Jianwen naturally thought of taking Su Xuan for a walk to see the scenery here!

"Never mind, you’re about to become the groom, there’s plenty to do. I’ll just take a walk on my own!"

Su Xuan rubbed his nose. Rural weddings are quite busy. Su Xuan knew Dong Jianwen had a lot to do. He grabbed a handful of seeds, eating them while walking around Dragon Gate, looking at the scenery on both sides. Su Xuan took out his phone to take pictures, and at this moment, he saw not far ahead, a house that looked rather run-down, overgrown with weeds, but the door was open. He thought that perhaps the migrant worker had returned home. These days, many houses in the countryside are left idle all year round!

Suddenly, Su Xuan saw a familiar figure. It was a woman, wearing a red coat, looking very elegant!

"Su Luoxue!"

Su Xuan called out somewhat uncertainly. He didn’t know if he was mistaken or what, but when he called Su Luoxue, the woman turned around and was also a bit surprised to see Su Xuan!

"Boss? How come you’re here!"

Indeed, it was none other than Su Luoxue. When she saw Su Xuan, she was shocked. She didn’t expect Su Xuan to appear in Dragon Gate. It was entirely beyond her expectations!

"Are you from Dragon Gate?"

Su Xuan said with a surprised face, thinking this was quite a coincidence, really unexpected!

"Ahem, yes. Are you from Dragon Gate too?"

Su Luoxue found it strange. Su Xuan shouldn’t have come here with himself!

"Oh, I’m not. I have a comrade from here, and he came back for an engagement, so I came along. I didn’t expect you guys to be in Dragon Gate as well."

Su Xuan smiled. It really proved that saying - without coincidences, there wouldn’t be stories. Some things are just so miraculous!

"Mr. Su, what a coincidence. Come in and sit!"

Seeing Su Xuan, Uncle Su was delighted. He didn’t expect Su Xuan to appear here and thought to himself if this was fate!

Actually, Old Su still felt that if his daughter could marry someone like Su Xuan, he’d feel very reassured. Although Su Xuan had a wife, he clearly knew one thing: Su Xuan was a responsible man. If his daughter married Su Xuan, she’d be lucky!

"Are you talking about Brother Dong’s family? You know Dong Jianwen?"

Su Luoxue curiously said, Dragon Gate is just that big, and he naturally knew whose family had an event!

"Yes, do you know him? By the way, Dong Jianwen also works at Jun Yue, in the engineering department!"

Su Xuan gently explained!

"Really! It’s such a coincidence. You don’t know this but Brother Dong used to take care of my father and me. Back then, I often got bullied, and Brother Dong helped me a lot. I didn’t expect Brother Dong was getting engaged, truly worthy of celebration."

Su Luoxue was in a good mood. He then took out a bottle of mineral water and handed it to Su Xuan, and they sat in the yard and began to chat. This is when Su Xuan learned that the reason Su Luoxue went to the Imperial Capital was because a bully in their village was harassing their family. To avoid the bully, her father took her to the Imperial Capital, and they stayed there for many years, so Su Luoxue didn’t really have formal schooling.

"Sigh...what bully would be so blatant in harassing people?"

Su Xuan was speechless. How could someone be so ruthless to ruin others like this!

"Honestly, he was just being a rogue. At the time, my father was honest, and one day their cow was eating crops on our land. My father hit the cow a few times with bamboo, and then their family claimed my dad caused their cow’s miscarriage, saying the cow was a rare breed, and that the cow gave birth to baby cows. In the end, they demanded father pay two hundred thousand in compensation."

"They’re real bandits. Probably, the real target was you, right?"

With just his toes, Su Xuan could tell that this thing wasn’t simple. It must have been primarily aimed at Su Luoxue. Someone probably set their sights on Su Luoxue, really shameless.

Su Luoxue nodded and then softly spoke.

"At that time, the bully’s real intention was for me to marry him to cancel the debt, otherwise, we had to repay the money. My father had no choice but to take me away."
