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

0Since Xiao Chen had changed his mind, Lin Yin, her son, and Chu Yuntao naturally wouldn't have any objections.    

    

Under the accompaniment of the lawyer, the procedures were quickly completed.    

    

Looking at the time, he estimated that Chu Huaiyu and the others should have finished chatting, so he called Chu Huaiyu.    

    

Who knew that just as the call connected, Chu Huaiyu asked directly, "When did you know Director Gu?"    

    

Just now, Gu Changfeng had mentioned Xiao Chen more than once. Her mouth full of flattery made her, this fake wife, embarrassed.    

    

Xiao Chen was not very surprised. He casually said, "Before, when I went to the Town God Temple to burn incense, I happened to run into someone who stole his wallet."    

    

Gu Changfeng's superstitious beliefs were famous in the circle. It was easy to make up a reason.    

    

"When did you believe that too?" Chu Huaiyu did not relax her suspicion and asked strangely.    

    

"I originally did not believe it!" Xiao Chen took a deep breath. "But I believed it when I met you!"    

    

"Hmm?" Chu Huaiyu did not know what to say.    

    

"If it was not for the virtue accumulated in my previous life, how could the heavens let me marry such a beautiful wife?"    

    

Chu Huaiyu's eyelids twitched when she heard this.    

    

She discovered that this fellow's skin was getting thicker and thicker. Now, he dared to say anything!    

    

She spat but was unable to suppress the throbbing in her heart. It was only after a long while that she changed the topic.    

    

"Oh right, I'll go to the company with Xiaoxiao later. You don't have to come over."    

    

"Alright. Then I'll pick you up after you get off work."    

    

"Grandpa told Mom and I to go for dinner tonight, so you don't have to come. Go back and get some food yourself."    

    

After saying that, Chu Huaiyu quickly hung up the phone.    

    

Hearing the busy sound on the other end, Xiao Chen looked at the sky out of boredom. He thought for a while and then called Tia Ce.    

    

"How's the jade that I asked you to buy?"    

    

In order to prevent the spiritual energy from the blood coral from dissipating, he needed some jade stones to set up the formation.    

    

Yesterday, when he obtained the blood coral, he had already given the order.    

    

"Don't worry, sir. I'll deliver it to you later today."    

    

"Okay, hurry up!"    

    

After all, the fish tank wasn't the ocean, and he didn't have someone to take care of it. The longer it took, the more spiritual energy the blood coral would release.    

    

After giving a few instructions, he did not continue to stay outside.    

    

Just as he returned to Half Mountain Villa, he saw Gu Muwan hugging her knees and squatting by the door.    

    

Perhaps because she heard footsteps, she hurriedly raised her head. When she saw Xiao Chen, she rubbed her head hard.    

    

However, after squatting for too long, the blood in her legs was not flowing smoothly. When she stood up, her legs could not help but feel numb.    

    

Seeing her stagger, Xiao Chen immediately took a step forward and lifted his hand to pull her arm.    

    

Stabilizing her body, she patted her chest and cast a sidelong glance at the hand that was grabbing her wrist. She gently pursed her lips.    

    

Xiao Chen loosened his grip and looked at her with a frown. "Why are you here?"    

    

"I, I have nowhere to go!" Gu Muwan looked at him, feeling wronged, but she felt guilty.    

    

"If you don't have a place to go, then why did you learn to run away from home?" Xiao Chen glared at her unhappily.    

    

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a series of gurgling sounds.    

    

Gu Muwan rubbed her belly in embarrassment. She buried her head and stood there uneasily.    

    

"Alright, let's eat first. I will send you back later!" He opened the door and brought her into the living room.    

    

Without any delay, she placed two bowls of noodles in the kitchen. Smelling the fragrance, she fiercely sniffled.    

    

When the noodles were served, she immediately picked up her chopsticks and started to eat. Even Xiao Chen did not taste that good.    

    

"Are you full?" Xiao Chen saw that she had finished drinking the broth. "If you are full, let's go!"    

    

"I'm not going back!" Gu Muwan pouted and turned to the sofa. She hugged the pillow and hid on the sofa.    

    

"Don't you know your brother is worried about you?" Xiao Chen frowned and his tone became heavier.    

    

"I don't care. I'm not going back anyway!" Her eyes flashed, and she shook her head stubbornly.    

    

Xiao Chen frowned and looked at her. He was really a little helpless. He said gloomily, "What happened?"    

    

Hearing this, Gu Muwan's eyes tightened and she shook her lips and did not speak.    

    

Seeing this, Xiao Chen could only take out his phone and prepare to call Gu Changfeng.    

    

But she suddenly jumped up from the sofa and pounced in front of him. She raised her hand and grabbed towards his hand.    

    

Xiao Chen naturally would not let her get what she wanted. He pulled his hand back, but she could not hold back her strength.    

    

With a bang, Gu Muwan directly fell into his arms. The pain made her rub her head from the forbidden area.    

    

When she looked up, she saw that his face was right in front of her. Her pretty face turned red and she hurriedly took two steps back.    

    

"Ding, Ding..." The phone had already been dialled and there was no sound before she heard the sound coming from the phone.    

0

    

"Mr. Xiao, calling at this time is..."    

    

Hearing her father's voice, Gu Muwan's eyes shrunk fiercely, and her lips also turned white from biting.    

    

She stared straight at Xiao Chen, with only anxiety and pleading in her eyes.    

    

Facing her gaze, Xiao Chen hesitated for a while before finally putting his phone away.    

    

"If your dad suites me for kidnapping in the future, I will definitely find you to settle accounts!" Xiao Chen said unhappily as he sat on the sofa gloomily.    

    

"Him? Definitely not!" The corners of her mouth relaxed, but Gu Muwan's expression became even more gloomy.    

    

"I will only take you in for one night. Choose a guest room to rest in." Pointing to the room upstairs, Xiao Chen did not say anything more to her.    

    

"Phew." Gu Muwan let out a big sigh of relief. At this time, her sad face finally regained some vitality.    

    

She originally planned to wait for Chu Huaiyu to return and also say thanks to Chu Huaiyu.    

    

However, from yesterday onwards, Gu Muwan did not sleep much.    

    

At this moment, her mind was relaxed and fatigue invaded her at the same time. She leaned on the sofa and closed her eyes not long after.    

    

After an unknown period of time, the sound that suddenly entered her ears woke her up.    

    

She opened her eyes in a daze, but found that she was already lying on the bed.    

    

The patrol swept his gaze towards the window, only to see the curtains being disturbed by the night wind. They were panting heavily and moving uneasily.    

    

The small sound came from the courtyard downstairs.    

    

When she landed by the window, she saw that several big pits had been dug out of the courtyard.    

    

Xiao Chen was in the courtyard, squatting down and burying something in the pit.    

    

The blood-red coral contrasted with the cold moonlight, but it looked even more bewitching.    

    

When the last pit was filled, Xiao Chen formed a hand seal and shouted in his heart, "Spirit Locking Formation, rise!"    

    

Instantly, a layer of dense green light flashed and poured down like a waterfall, trapping Xiao Chen and the coral inside.    

    

But when Gu Muwan composed herself and took a closer look, the layer of green light had already disappeared.    

    

But that coral and the figure that quietly sat by the coral's side slowly became blurry.    

    

She could not help but frown. Just as she wanted to go downstairs to take a look at the situation, her vision suddenly turned dark.    

    

Then, a gust of cold wind alarmed and a pitch-black figure entered her sight.    

    

Before she could cry out in alarm, the back of her neck suddenly hurt. Her body went limp and she lost all feeling.
