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

Chu Huaiyu was really too busy. After staying in the company for half a day, Xiao Chen did not even see her.    

    

It was only in the afternoon when they got off work. It was only then that he saw her for the first time.    

    

The surrounding people were pointing at her and discussing her in low voices. Xiao Chen did not pay any attention to them.    

    

He only saw the tiredness on Chu Huaiyu's face that could not be wiped away and felt a little heartache.    

    

"Are those guys pushing everything to you?"    

    

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Chu Huaiyu said snappily.    

    

However, when she noticed his worried gaze, her heart was inexplicably touched.    

    

Without waiting for Xiao Chen to say anything else, she explained to him, "I just took up my position now. There are a lot of matters in the company waiting for me to take care of. Besides, those partners are rushing here today. That's why they look a little haggard. "    

    

As she spoke, she took out her phone to take a picture of herself. She wiped the corners of her eyes and said, "By the way, are you so free every day?"    

    

"Who said I'm idle? I've been busy all day. I'm just a little lazy now."    

    

"What are you busy with, sleeping?" Chu Huaiyu immediately rolled her eyes and retorted.    

    

"You have to be able to sleep. When you are not here, my mind is always thinking about you and I can't stop at all. "    

    

"Urgh." One hand was covering her throat. Chu Huaiyu immediately bent down and retched a few times.    

    

Then, she shrugged her shoulders and shivered. She moved her feet and immediately pulled away from Xiao Chen.    

    

"Can you be more disgusting?"    

    

"Yes!" Xiao Chen rushed forward and suddenly grabbed her shoulder.    

    

Chu Huaiyu was so scared that she immediately shivered. She just wanted to quickly push this bastard away.    

    

Unfortunately, Xiao Chen had already reached out his hand to grab her chin and forcefully lifted her face up.    

    

"It is said that the eyes are the windows to the soul. Look carefully. What do you see in my eyes?"    

    

For a moment, Chu Huaiyu's heart skipped a beat. At the same time, a burning sensation climbed onto her face.    

    

Biting her lips, she forced herself to calm down. Looking at Xiao Chen's expression that was full of affection but could not hide her pride, her heart moved.    

    

Under the somewhat blurred gaze, she extended her slender hand and pointed it at Xiao Chen's face.    

    

Xiao Chen did not expect her to suddenly hand over her hand. She curled her lips and deliberately moved her face closer.    

    

However, the moment her two hands landed on her face, they suddenly moved up.    

    

At the same time, Chu Huaiyu's eyes focused. Her thumb pressed against the corner of his eye and suddenly used force.    

    

The pain made Xiao Chen shrink backward. He hurriedly raised his hand to cover his eyes.    

    

"You don't even know how to wipe off your eye feces!"    

    

... "" Xiao Chen was just about to complain when he was interrupted by this sentence. He cursed in his heart.    

    

"As expected, the television is full of lies! I only believed those bastards' nonsense because I was possessed! "    

    

At this moment, Chu Huaiyu had already raised her hand to pick up the invitation card on the table.    

    

"What is this?"    

    

"It was sent by someone from the Gu family. It seems to be Wan's birthday tomorrow."    

    

"Didn't she say that she wouldn't do it?" Xiao Chen still remembered what Gu Muwan had said to him yesterday.    

    

Chu Huaiyu did not respond. Speaking of birthdays, she thought of another person. There had been too much sh * t going on during this period of time, and she almost forgot about it.    

    

If it was in the past, Chu family would have been in a terrible situation at this time because of that troublesome birthday present.    

    

"What's wrong?" Seeing her frown, Xiao Chen couldn't help but ask.    

    

"Oh, nothing." Chu Huaiyu waved her hand and did not say anything else. After tidying up, she followed Xiao Chen out of the company.    

    

When they returned to the villa, a small truck was parked at the door.    

    

There was a huge fish tank in the car, and inside was a plant as tall as a person.    

    

Its entire body was blood-red, like a tree that had been dyed in blood. Facing the afterglow of the setting sun, it looked even more demonic.    

    

Lau Ruman was standing outside the door, rubbing her head with one hand. When she saw Xiao Chen and Lau Ruman coming back, she immediately went up to them.    

    

"You're finally back. They said that you had someone send this over?"    

    

Hearing this, Chu Huaiyu could not help but glance at Xiao Chen strangely.    

    

She had naturally heard of blood coral before, but it was also her first time seeing such a large blood coral that had yet to be made into a specimen.    

    

"May I ask if it is Xiao Chen, Mr. Xiao? The things have been delivered. Do you think you should pay the shipping fee for us first?"    

    

Before Xiao Chen could say anything, the truck driver also walked over.    

    

"No problem!" Xiao Chen was in a good mood. Even though he did not get close, he could already feel the spiritual aura from the blood coral.    

    

With the item in his hands, how could Xiao Chen care about the transportation fee?    

    

He quickly paid the bill and found someone to move the fish tank into the yard.    

    

Even if the blood coral could not refine medicine like ginseng, as long as he sat beside the blood coral, his cultivation would be twice the result with half the effort.    

    

Moreover, he had obtained a book called 'Ji Ling Grand Ceremony' back then, which could directly devour the spirit energy within the blood coral.    

    

In other words, he did not need to grind like ordinary cultivators at all.    

    

The more he thought about it, the more excited his heart became. He wished that he could immediately sit cross-legged and circulate his energy.    

    

However, he also knew that this matter couldn't be rushed. In order to prevent the dissipation of spiritual energy from being wasted, he had to make some preparations.    

    

"Hey, you don't need to eat anymore?"    

    

"Oh, I'll be right there!" He finally managed to suppress his excitement. Only then did Xiao Chen return to the villa.    

    

The night passed without a word.    

    

The next day, because of Gu Muwan's birthday, Chu Huaiyu had no choice but to temporarily suppress the matters in her hands and spare half a day's time.    

    

Time was tight and Chu Huaiyu did not have the time to choose between thousands of choices, so she bought a pair of jewelry along the way and rushed to the hotel.    

    

It was more than ten o'clock and there was still some time before the banquet started but there were already many guests in the hotel.    

    

The red carpet was lined with fresh flowers, and the festive atmosphere was painted very well by the hotel.    

    

Gu Zhaonian personally welcomed the guests at the door. When he saw Xiao Chen, his brows furrowed, but he still greeted him with a smile.    

    

"Please come in, both of you!" He greeted them lightly and invited them to the banquet hall number one.    

    

Gu Zhaonian did not stay any longer.    

    

However, Xiao Chen and Xiao Chen's arrival immediately attracted the attention of the people in the hall.    

    

During this period of time, all kinds of things in the Chu's had been stirred up, but Chu Huaiyu had taken over the power at this time. It wasn't her intention. Her name had already spread in the circle, and it had only been a short while before people started talking about her.    

    

"Isn't that Chu Huaiyu? Who is that kid beside her? What kind of place does she think this place is?"    

    

" Who else could it be? It's the guy who's living off a woman. His status is different now. He's the 'Lady Boss' of Chu's. "    

    

" She's pretty f * cking awesome. Speaking of which, how could they still have the face to run here? They couldn't have slipped in, could they? "    

    

" Won't you know if you go and ask? "    

    

"Forget it. Whoever runs into this kind of person will have bad luck. I won't go and provoke that bad luck."    

    

The group of people all spoke at once. They seemed to have lowered their voices, but the words they spoke really were few people who didn't hear them.    

    

Chu Huaiyu frowned when she heard this. She originally wanted to take the opportunity to develop her connections.    

    

However, she could not bring herself to be in such a mood now. She just wanted to finish eating and leave.
