The Strongest Mad Son-in-law

Qian Changle instantly realized what was happening and said, with his face turning iron blue, "So this means there's an internal traitor in my family!"

"Pretty much."

Xu Hao spoke indifferently, his gaze drifting to another part of the living room, seemingly casually catching a glimpse of the maid from before.

Having long been in the bureaucratic circles, Qian Changle, with his sharp ability to interpret expressions and words, instantly understood Xu Hao's implication and immediately commanded, "Security! Apprehend her!"

Instantly, two security guards rushed in, attempting to subdue the maid.

However, unbeknownst to them, the maid was not an easy adversary, she possessed martial arts skills and quickly knocked down the two security guards with a few punches and kicks.

With a cold look at Xu Hao, she said icily, "Kid, you dare sabotage our plan, you're done for!"

Realizing her cover was blown and that there was no point in staying, she smashed through the window with a punch, ready to flee.

Xu Hao smiled faintly and said, "You think you can escape in front of me?"

As he spoke, Xu Hao's figure suddenly moved, and in the next second, he had firmly grasped the maid's hands, clamping them like a vice.

He then reached for a sheer fabric on the couch, tore it into fragments, and tightly wrapped them around the maid.

At this moment, the maid was bound tightly by Xu Hao, lying powerlessly on the ground, unable to struggle; she glared at Xu Hao with eyes full of resentment, as if she wished she could skin him alive.

Xu Hao remained composed, considering the maid had infiltrated someone's home to monitor private lives, and the Qian family had been friendly to him, he could not just stand by and do nothing after encountering such a situation.

Qian Changle was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "Young Master Xu is truly formidable, with one move, the culprit was prevented from causing trouble."

Zhou Juan was even more shocked. The maid's Kung Fu was already quite powerful, but in front of Xu Hao, she seemed as fragile as a paper tiger.

Xu Hao took out the memory card and said to Zhou Juan, "Do you still dare to deny that you took it upon yourself to medicate the puppy? Should we play it and let everyone see?"

Zhou Juan's face turned extremely ugly in an instant; she had never imagined that her home was bugged with pinhole cameras, which might have recorded all her actions.

Xu Hao chuckled lightly, tossing both the pinhole camera and the memory card into Qian Changle's hands, and said coldly, "That's your domestic issue, I'd rather not get involved. I'm here to check on Elder Qian's condition."

He had come to assist with Elder Qian's medical condition, but Zhou Juan unexpectedly confronted him, blocking his way. If the Patriarch of Qian Family hadn't chosen to support Xu Hao last night, Xu Hao would have left already.

However, upon hearing Xu Hao's tone, Qian Changle understood that Xu Hao had a thoroughly unfavorable impression of his place.

Glaring fiercely at Zhou Juan, he then sycophantically said to Xu Hao, "Young Master Xu, why don't we have a meal first, rest a moment, and then go see him? Elder's been ill for so long, it won't make much difference to wait a little longer."

He still wanted Xu Hao to stay a bit longer, because if Xu Hao agreed, he would have a chance to get closer with Xu Hao. He wasn't the Patriarch of Qian Family and in terms of status and power, he couldn't be compared to Qian Jiuyue, but water flows downwards, and people strive upwards – he too wanted a certain level of influence in the great city of Huadu.

The Qian Family's influence was indeed substantial but limited; after all, it was a large family, and he was from a branch, not the direct lineage, so resources wouldn't be specifically biased towards him.

Therefore, to gain considerable power, Qian Changle needed to find a stronger backer, and Xu Hao's dramatic emergence caught his eye. Even if he hadn't encountered Xu Hao by chance today, he would have taken time to visit and try to establish a good relationship with Xu Hao.

Yet, he had been somewhat hostile towards Xu Hao just now because he hadn't believed Xu Hao was Lei Qianjue's master, and now Zhou Juan had repeatedly provoked Xu Hao, which infuriated him. If not for Xu Hao being present, he would have felt like killing Zhou Juan on the spot.

Xu Hao slightly shook his head and said, "Let's tend to Elder Qian's illness first; there's still time before noon."

"Of course, please come this way," Qian Changle hurriedly gestured and then led Xu Hao and the others to the back courtyard.

But Zhou Juan did not follow; instead, she left the villa and disappeared, it was unclear where she had gone. As for the housemaid, she was left in the care of the Qian Family Security Team.

Behind the villa, there was a garden planted with various exotic flowers and plants, and further back stood an ancient-looking brick house.

Qian Changle explained, "This has always been where my father resides. Initially, this estate was all traditional brick houses; they were demolished to build the current villas. However, my father is sentimental and prefers tranquility, he didn't want this house torn down, so it was kept as is. Eventually, he simply bought the surrounding villas to avoid disturbances, and now they're all inhabited by members of the Qian family branches."
