The Crazy Son-In-Law

“I understand, you guys go busy yourselves, I’m at home,” Yao Cen didn’t ask him what was going on. She was used to it by now.

If Xiao Shun wanted to say something, he would take the initiative to speak. If he didn’t explain, Yao Cen rarely probed.

After leaving Lakeview Ranch, Xiao Shun, Duan Jia and Song Linger drove towards Riverland Bay.

As soon as they got into the car, Song Linger mysteriously said to Xiao Shun, “Master, let me tell you a good news. I feel like I’m about to break through soon.”

Xiao Shun’s heart sank as he looked at her with an expression of “Did you sneak and eat my Dark Roses?”

“I didn’t sneak and eat your stuff,” Song Linger immediately understood what his expression meant and said aggrievedly.

Then she thought, it made sense. Two months ago, Song Linger had already reached the pinnacle of the Foundation stage. Every morning she would practice external exercises, and whenever she had free time, she would stay in the pill refining room relying on the spiritual energy provided by Spirit Stones to improve her internal cultivation.

If it wasn’t for her injury last time, with her progress, she would indeed be close by now.

“You misunderstood, I was pleasantly surprised that my disciple is so amazing and will break through so soon,” Xiao Shun raised his eyebrows and said.

“See, I also think I’m pretty amazing,” Song Linger proudly raised her head.

…

Riverland Bay was also a high-end villa area by the Lantin River, not far from Lakeview Ranch, about twenty minutes away.

Presumably Song Qingzhou had made arrangements in advance. When the three of them arrived at Villa No. 63 Riverland Bay, Song Qingzhou’s villa, there were already several servants waiting inside.

The villa was very large and would be inconvenient without people taking care of it.

However, Song Linger felt very uncomfortable with so many people here, so she called them over and instructed them.

She told them they didn’t have to stay here on a daily basis, just come over once a week to clean up and trim the plants and flowers, and keep the same wages.

Naturally, the servants were more than happy to have such a good deal.

After sending them away, the three of them took a tour of the villa.

The whole yard was about a thousand square meters. The overall style was mainly traditional, with rockery ponds, winding paths and secluded scenery, which was very beautiful. Song Qingzhou really spared no effort for his daughter.

Then the three found an empty room to place the “treasures” they brought, and the new pill refining room was set up.

“Did you arrange a residence for me?” Duan Jia asked Xiao Shun.

“You live here too. This villa is so big, it would be too empty with just me,” Song Linger spoke up before Xiao Shun could.

“That doesn’t seem right,” Duan Jia scratched his head.

“What’s wrong with that? We’ve been together for so long. And you still have to be my sparring partner,” Song Linger pouted, unconvinced.

Duan Jia: “…”

Xiao Shun smiled and said, “Mr. Song still has an abandoned factory with several dormitories inside. Pick one yourself.”

In the end, Duan Jia chose the abandoned factory.

The reason was simple. He might go out to party at night. After all, Song Linger was his junior. Letting a junior know that he was so “undisciplined” was still a bit embarrassing.

Also, he felt it was not very appropriate for a man and a woman to live in the same yard. Although he looked rough on the outside and had been overseas for many years, he still retained some traditional views at heart.

Xiao Shun and Song Linger couldn’t persuade him, so they just let him be.

The two were not worried about him either. After all, he used to be the king of bodyguards. If he couldn’t even take care of himself, how could he take care of his clients?

In the CEO’s office at the Golden Holding building.

Yang Zino wore a tailored gray plaid jacket with a light blue shirt, and a pair of tight black jeans wrapped around her slender legs.

She had a cold look on her face with her arms crossed, sitting in the office chair.

She was listening to a young male secretary report on the preparation of the Hero Cup Fighting Tournament, as well as a summary report on the various forces that had come to participate in the grand event.

She was not only the branch head of the Old School Society now, but also the CEO of Golden Holding, with great power in her hands.

And Kou Zhengqing had retired to the second line, only serving as the senex of the Old School Society, no longer in charge of Golden Holding affairs.

“Did headquarters give any news about the pill auction this weekend?” After listening to the report, Yang Zino nodded and asked.

“Grandmaster Zhou Tianheng will come in person to host it. The pills he brings will surely astonish the four sides, and can also fetch considerable prices,” the male secretary replied.

“Those cultivation families are just a bunch of country bumpkins who have never seen the world. Just throwing out some pills is enough to make them jealous. With Grandmaster Zhou coming in person, it will surely knock their jaws off,” Yang Zino sneered arrogantly as she stretched lazily, her ample front almost bursting out.

The male secretary quickly lowered his head, not daring to defile her.

The Hero Cup Fighting Tournament was itself an opportunity to demonstrate strength to all cultivators under heaven. The pill auction was just one part of it.

“Of course. Grandmaster Zhou is one of the best pill refiners in our headquarters. He is highly respected in the pill refining field. With him taking charge in person, it will not only give face to our branch, but honor the entire Old School Society.” The male secretary quickly agreed.

“Alright, anything else? If not, you may leave.” Yang Zino said.

“Oh, our contact person Su Yin from Stillwater is outside asking for an audience. Do you want to see him?”

“Su Yin?”

Yang Zino had some impression of him. He was the one who helped guide them on their last trip to Stillwater, but then he disappeared. As expected, he was also a deceitful and slippery person.

“What does he want?”

“Unclear.”

“Let him in,” Yang Zino said.

The male secretary nodded and left the office. Soon Su Yin walked in.

“Why aren’t you staying in Stillwater properly and came here instead?” Yang Zino flipped through the documents on the desk without looking up, asking indifferently.

“Xiao Shun is not dead. He is in Stillwater now,” Su Yin replied respectfully.

Yang Zino’s hand stalled and her brows knitted slightly. She looked up at Su Yin, “Really?”

At that time, Gu Baiyi determined that Xiao Shun wouldn’t live more than a few days. With Gu Baiyi’s strength, Yang Zino naturally had no doubts.

But Xiao Shun was actually not dead, and recovered so quickly that he was now in Harrow. This was really unexpected. What did he want to do coming to Harrow at this time?

“Absolutely true,” Su Yin said firmly.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Yang Zino pondered for a moment.

She had seen Xiao Shun’s strength and knew he was no match for Gu Baiyi.

And it hadn’t even been a month since he was heavily injured by Gu Baiyi.

She saw his condition with her own eyes at that time. With such serious internal injuries, even if he survived by chance, it was impossible to recover so quickly. There was nothing to fear.

There were thousands of cultivators in their branch alone, plus those from other branches who came for the tournament. Easily over ten thousand.

How could they be afraid of a mere Xiao Shun? Ridiculous!
