Immortal Emperor's Life As A Son-in-law

Other than a bed, a bedside cabinet, and a television cabinet, there was only a small cabinet that held slippers.    

Once he entered the door, Xiao Chen searched everywhere and pretended to be emotional as he said, "It's alright. There are two baths. It's fine. You sleep on the bed. I'll sleep on the ground for a night."    

As he said this, Xiao Chen pretended to test the corner of the wall.    

As soon as he laid down, he shrank his body and shouted, "Hiss, why is it so cold?"    

Chu Huaiyu looked at him and could not help but frown.    

At this moment, Xiao Chen looked over pitifully. His hand even greedily touched the bed.    

Chu Huaiyu turned her head away and did not look at him. She just walked into the bathroom.    

After a while, the sound of flowing water stopped, followed by the sound of the hairdryer. She waved her hand and only then did she hear the sound of the bathroom door opening.    

Chu Huaiyu leaned close to the door and opened a small crack in the bathroom door. She shouted at Xiao Chen, " Hey, help me pass the bag over. I forgot to take it just now."    

That was the underwear she had bought before she came. She had been interrupted by Xiao Chen just now and had actually forgotten about it before she came in.    

Only then did Xiao Chen calm his mind. He took the bag and slowly walked over.    

Once he landed at the bathroom door, his eyes suddenly opened wide. He opened his mouth and gulped a few mouthfuls of saliva.    

"What are you doing? Hurry up and give it to me!"    

As she spoke, Chu Huaiyu followed his gaze and looked back.    

When she saw the mirror that had been wiped to blow her hair, she was immediately stunned.    

When she heard the sound of Xiao Chen swallowing saliva again, she came back to her senses. She did not even have time to take the bag and directly knocked on the bathroom door.    

However, Xiao Chen was stunned and forgot to dodge. Then, he felt a pain in his nose. Then, he took a few steps back. The scattered water droplets wet the floor of the door and fell to the ground with a clang.    

He rubbed his aching head and got up. He hurriedly said to Chu Huaiyu, "That, I, I didn't do it on purpose."    

"You shut up. Put the things at the door and get out of here immediately!"    

"I..."    

Chu Huaiyu was flustered and exasperated. She did not wait for Xiao Chen to finish speaking before she shouted sternly, "Get out!"    

Xiao Chen's face turned bitter. In the end, he still put his things at the door of the bathroom and turned around to leave the room with his head lowered.    

There was a soft rustling sound and when they put on their clothes, Chu Huaiyu was still panting angrily.    

Xiao Chen did not go far. He would look at the door from time to time and say a few words to Chu Huaiyu.    

However, Chu Huaiyu did not respond to him anymore.    

Lying on the bed, Chu Huaiyu bit her lips tightly and held the pillow over her head.    

Looking at the darkening sky outside, she looked at the door. The sudden quietness made her hesitantly climb up and open the door with a creak. Seeing Xiao Chen's pitiful figure squatting by the door, she lifted her leg and kicked him.    

"Ah..."    

"Come in!"    

"[Wife, are you not angry anymore?]"    

Rubbing his arm, Xiao Chen climbed up with a cheeky smile and rubbed his red nose at the same time.    

Seeing his flattering look, Chu Huaiyu snorted and did not say anything more. She turned around and walked back.    

Xiao Chen immediately followed her and closed the door behind him.    

Seeing her figure getting into the blanket, he quietly reached out and grabbed the edge of the blanket. He tilted his butt and was about to follow her.    

In the end, he was kicked in the butt again and immediately kicked to the wall.    

"Wife, it's freezing in this weather. I'll help you warm the bed. I really don't have any other intentions!"    

"Is that so?" Chu Huaiyu lifted her head and reached out to grab the blanket. She said fiercely, "If you are not afraid of death, you can try!"    

"It is death on both sides. Rather than being frozen into a zombie, I think it is still..."    

As he spoke, Xiao Chen made up his mind and laid down on the bed. He looked like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water.    

Clenching her teeth, Chu Huaiyu glared at him fiercely but did not come out of the blanket.    

Just like that, the two of them lay on the bed. Separated by the thickness of the blanket, they fell into a long silence.    

This night also seemed to have become incomparably long.    

It was only when the even breathing sound came from beside him that Xiao Chen slowly closed his eyes.    

But he did not know whether he had fallen asleep or not. In any case, when he woke up the next day, the pain was not only from the big bump on the back of his head.    

He turned his body sideways and felt a slight blockage. It was only then that he realized that he had been covered by the blanket.    

At the same time, he felt the warmth in his chest. That somewhat muddled mind of his recovered in an instant.    

"Only when you are asleep will you be as lovable as you are now."    

He reached out and gently brushed away the messy hair on her temples. Xiao Chen said in a low voice, but his hand touched her cheek.    

"Actually, you can rely on me a little more." He sighed softly and looked at the bright sky outside. He did not have the greed to enjoy this moment. He gently pulled the blanket away and climbed down from the bed.    

He went out to prepare breakfast. When he came back, Chu Huaiyu had already woken up and was combing her messy hair.    

"Have something to eat. Are you going to look for them today?"    

"I have to go. I can't afford to delay the project for Jiang Jing!" Chu Huaiyu said firmly.    

Looking at her, Xiao Chen did not try to persuade her. However, the anger in his heart towards Zhou Boda and Ye did not disappear.    

"It seems that the lesson was not enough." He muttered silently, but didn't show it on his face.    

It wasn't until after breakfast that a phone call came in. When Xiao Chen saw the caller ID, he immediately pressed the button and answered the call.    

"Is everything done?"    

"We have contacted the sand factory. If the purchase is successful, we should be able to sign a contract with Chu's today. It's just that the distance is quite far, so the cost might be much higher than expected."    

"It's just a little bit of money!" Xiao Chen did not mind. No matter how much money he gave, he would need to spend it on the right place.    

To Xiao Chen, there was nothing more worth it than letting Chu Huaiyu feel at ease.    

"Then prepare! How is the investigation of the other matter going?"    

"I haven't fully understood the details, but this Zhou Boda is still considered a 'celebrity' in the Golden Orchid Region. Dealing with him will be slightly troublesome. " Jiang Loong took a deep breath and said carefully.    

"Trouble?" Xiao Chen's tone immediately became cold.    

"Don't worry, sir. I will take care of it as soon as possible!" Jiang Loong promised immediately.    

"Remember what you said. You know what I mean. I don't have much patience."    

Xiao Chen snorted and hung up the phone.    

If he didn't want to take the opportunity to have a two-person tour with Chu Huaiyu, he could have done it himself.    

Of course, this didn't mean that he would let Zhou Boda go just like that!
