Chapter 399: The Su Family's Situation
He didn't know how long had passed, but that powerful suction suddenly vanished.
What entered Jiang Feng's eyes was a familiar sight.
"Is this... Jiang City Suburbs?"
Jiang Feng was startled for a moment, then quickly recovered.
The Transmission Array had actually sent him straight back to Jiangcheng.
He lowered his head to glance at his clothes, still the coarse hemp garment he wore in Taoyuan Village, looking rather disheveled.
But now was not the time to worry about that; what weighed on his mind most was the Su Family.
Thinking of that, Jiang Feng immediately stood up.
Just as he reached the intersection, a taxi was slowly pulling up, and Jiang Feng raised his hand to hail it.
"Driver, Qingqiu Garden Villa, please."
Jiang Feng opened the door and got in, his tone a bit urgent.
The driver, a middle‑aged man, glanced at Jiang Feng's attire, a flicker of doubt flashing in his eyes.
A rag‑clad youngster like this could still afford to stay at Qingqiu Garden Villa?
He said nothing, sped along, and after a little over half an hour finally arrived at the residential complex where Su Family Villa stood.
Jiang Feng fumbled about on himself, found no money, and had to ask the driver to wait while he went to Su Family to get cash.
The driver didn't mind much, waved his hand, and after a short while, thought "never mind"... then sped off again.
Feeling a bit grateful, Jiang Feng casually infused a dose of true qi into the driver.
Consider it his fare.
That dose of true qi should at least guarantee the driver is cured of all ailments.
Jiang Feng soon arrived at Su Family Villa.
The villa's main gate was left ajar, and inside it was silent, with not a sound to be heard.
His heart gave a thud, and a bad premonition rose within him.
He hurried forward, pushed open the gate, and stepped inside.
A thin layer of dust covered the courtyard, and the once neatly trimmed lawn had become chaotic, clearly untouched for a long time.
Could the Su Family have moved out?
Jiang Feng vaguely sensed something was off.
The hall was empty; the expensive furniture that had once stood there had vanished, leaving only bare floor and walls, making it especially desolate.
"Xue Yan? Su Lao?"
Jiang Feng called out tentatively twice, his voice echoing in the vast hall, but received no reply.
He hurried up to the second floor, inspected each room, and found them all exactly the same.
The huge Su Family Villa was completely empty!
Jiang Feng's heart felt clenched by an invisible hand, and his mind was in total chaos.
Where had the Su Family gone? Could something really have happened?
At that moment, the sound of cleaning came from downstairs.
Jiang Feng immediately went down and saw several maids in cleaning uniforms chatting and laughing as they entered the house.
These maids were all unfamiliar faces; Jiang Feng was certain he had never seen them before.
"Who are you? Where is the homeowner?"
Jiang Feng hurried forward and asked.
The maids were startled by Jiang Feng's sudden appearance.
One slightly older maid sized Jiang Feng up, and upon seeing his coarse hemp attire, a hint of wariness flashed in her eyes.
"Who are you? Why did you barge in all of a sudden?"
"Isn't this the Su Family? I used to live here."
"Can anyone tell me where the Su Family has gone?"
The maids exchanged glances, their faces full of mockery.
"You say you used to live here? What a joke! Don't you know the Su Family went bankrupt?"
Upon hearing that, Jiang Feng's expression changed instantly, and he darted forward to the speaking woman.
"What did you say? What do you mean the Su Family went bankrupt!"
The woman was startled, but she replied angrily.
"They went bankrupt because they offended Jiangnan Wang; bankruptcy was inevitable, wasn't it?"
"Not only were they ordered to shut down all enterprises, but Su Lao Old Master also fell ill directly, and the illness is said to be serious."
"Miss Su also had it hard; a young woman having to deal with so many messes, in the end she had no choice but to sell this villa."
"So now this villa has nothing to do with the Su Family!"
As those words reached his ears, Jiang Feng's complexion darkened gradually, and the aura around him grew increasingly cold.
Jiangnan Wangfu!
Jiang Feng's gaze was filled with a towering rage, the fire almost ready to incinerate him entirely.
He never imagined the Su Family would suffer such a catastrophic disaster because of him!
The Su Group had ceased operations, Su Lao was gravely ill…
All of this, all of it, was because of him!
A strong wave of guilt surged in his heart; Jiang Feng felt as if a massive stone pressed his chest, making it hard to breathe.
"Huh!"
Jiang Feng took a deep breath, trying to suppress the anger in his heart, but his eyes had already turned blood‑red, like a beast about to go berserk.
He suddenly looked at the few nannies, his voice hoarse from extreme fury.
"Su Lao… where is Su Lao now, which hospital?"
The sudden roar startled the nannies, making them shiver all over.
Seeing Jiang Feng's blood‑red eyes, they felt a chill surge from their feet straight up to the Tianling Cover, as if a terrifying beast were eyeing them.
"I… I don't know…"
One nanny stammered, her face turning pale with fright.
"Speak quickly!"
Jiang Feng stepped forward, and the pressure around him dropped even lower.
"Which hospital is Su Lao actually in?"
The invisible pressure became unbearable for the nannies; the slightly older one hurriedly replied.
"At… at Ancheng Hospital! Old Master Su Lao has been hospitalized at Ancheng Hospital for treatment!"
Hearing those four words, Jiang Feng's figure flickered, like a ghost, and vanished instantly in the villa lobby.
The nannies rubbed their eyes, looked at the empty doorway, and stared at each other.
"Where… where was that person just now?"
"Did I see wrong? How did he run so fast?"
"Never mind, never mind, let's hurry up and clean; if we delay it'll be trouble."
After leaving Su Family Villa, Jiang Feng immediately stretched his form and raced toward Ancheng Hospital.
His speed was extremely fast, far beyond ordinary people; pedestrians on the street only saw a black blur flash by, unable to discern what it was.
Ancheng Hospital is a relatively well‑known private hospital in Jiangcheng, with good medical facilities and not too far from Su Family Villa.
At Jiang Feng's speed, he reached the hospital entrance in just a few minutes.
The moment he stepped through the hospital gates, Jiang Feng instantly activated the Qi within his body and began sensing Su Lao and Su Xueyan's auras.
Soon, Jiang Feng sensed two familiar auras on the third floor of the inpatient wing.
He felt delighted, and immediately ran toward the inpatient wing.
The corridor on the third floor of the inpatient wing was very quiet, with only occasional footfalls and the nurse station's chatter.
Jiang Feng followed the direction of the auras, quickly arriving at a ward door.
He could feel that Su Lao and Su Xueyan were inside that ward.
Jiang Feng's mood was a bit excited; he took a deep breath, ready to push the door open, but heard several malicious taunts coming from inside the ward.
"Su Xueyan, your grandfather is about to die, why are you still stubbornly holding on here?" "Exactly, Miss Su, the glory of the past is gone, what are you still putting on airs for?"
"I think you should be sensible and sell the last two ancestral houses of the Su Family, get some money, and let your grandfather pass peacefully."
