C406 Aster's Secret
"This place is under the watch of all the major families. If you make a move here... That means that the Hwa family is going to become the enemy of all the families? It was fine to say this in the dark, but it couldn't be put on the surface. It will cause a huge storm. These families have a certain amount of power to make decisions."
As Hwa Xuwan spoke, her face revealed a deep fear.
This was the first time Xiao Chen saw Hwa Xuwan, who was not afraid of the sky and the earth, have such an expression. But he immediately nodded and said, "Okay, I understand. I will not be impulsive."
Just as he finished speaking, another person came to the door. This time, it was not the top ten family. It was two people from a family that Xiao Chen did not know.
The man came up with a provocative look. "You are called Xiao Chen, right? The son-in-law of the Hwa family? So you are the son-in-law of the ___? I really didn't expect this."
Xiao Chen was wearing a suit, but he didn't really dress up. His hair was a little longer, and he didn't have time to deal with it. He rushed to the meeting.
Hwa Xuwan did not seem to pay much attention to this area, but she was very satisfied with Xiao Chen wearing a suit.
So now Xiao Chen did not look so energetic.
Hearing the mockery of the person, Xiao Chen just sneered and didn't talk to him.
That person saw that Xiao Chen did not speak, so he mocked again, "Aiya, you are indeed a useless son-in-law. You don't even dare to speak. Really, I am very disappointed."
The man shook his head as he spoke. Hwa Xuwan wanted to stand up and help Xiao Chen regain his face, but she was held back by Xiao Chen.
After the man left, Xiao Chen let go.
"What are you doing? I could have said a few words just now to make that man less arrogant. If you do this, our Hwa family will lose all our face!" Hwa Xuwan looked at Xiao Chen angrily and said.
"Didn't you say so? We can't be angry here, nor can we have conflicts with others, but it will be different when we go outside, right? "Xiao Chen said with a smile on his face.
"What do you mean?" Hwa Xuwan did not understand.
"You will know later. Anyone who dares to provoke me now will not have a good ending."
Xiao Chen said with a smile on his face. However, this smile made people feel a chill down their spine. No one knew what kind of earth-shattering thing he would do.
Soon, it was night time. After dinner, all the tables and chairs in the hall were removed. Then, some staff put away the carpet in the middle. A huge circular dance hall was displayed in front of everyone.
"Alright, it's time for the dance. Let's dance to our heart's content!" Elder Ling said in a cheerful tone.
Then, everyone below began to slowly gather towards the center of the hall.
Xiao Chen originally thought that it would be a more orderly dance gathering, but he didn't expect it to be such a casual and messy meeting.
"What do you need to practice for? Can't you just dance casually?" Coming to the center, Xiao Chen could not help but complain to Hwa Xuwan.
"Wait, you'll know. We have to dance better." Hwa Xuwan whispered into Xiao Chen's ear.
After a while, Hua Manntian and Lan Xinfang also came to the field and stood near the two of them. Lan Xinfang saw Hwa Xuwan's nervous look and could not help but smile and ridicule, "You have never danced since you were young. Today, you actually took the initiative to come up and make a fool of yourself?"
Hwa Xuwan's expression changed a little when she heard that but she did not say anything and seriously started to dance with Xiao Chen.
After that, the melodious music began to spread, and all kinds of flashing lights suddenly appeared in the entire hall, as if they were really in a dance hall.
A beam of light shone down from above, moving back and forth in the crowd, as if it was choosing something.
Not long later, Xiao Chen felt the white light on him and Hwa Xuwan. Because the light was too strong, he felt a little uncomfortable.
After that, Xiao Chen saw his name and Hwa Xuwan's name appear on the big screen in front of him.
Hwa Xuwan was inexplicably excited after seeing this scene. She pulled Xiao Chen even harder and started dancing. There were fewer and fewer people around them. In the end, only she and Xiao Chen were left dancing in an intoxicated manner.
In the end, Hwa Xuwan did not have any strength left. Only then did the two of them listen.
"Let us congratulate Miss Hwa Xuwan and Mr. Xiao for becoming the dancing king and dancing queen of our family's memories this time!"
Elder Ling's voice came from above.
Hwa Xuwan laughed very excitedly, then kissed Xiao Chen in front of everyone.
"Thank you! Thank you so much!" Hwa Xuwan's face was full of joy.
Although Xiao Chen did not know why she was doing this, after a while, he saw Elder Ling walking over with two crystal trophies and giving them to Hwa Xuwan and himself.
Hwa Xuwan was unusually happy, as if she had obtained something she had dreamt of.
Xiao Chen just stood by the side and smiled, but he could not tell how happy he was.
Below, Hua Manntian and Lan Xinfang's eyes were filled with jealousy. They never would have thought that Hwa Xuwan's dancing skills would suddenly increase by so much.
In fact, it was all because of Xiao Chen's guidance.
If Xiao Chen had not been there, Hwa Xuwan probably would not have found the essence of dancing and would not have been able to dance so well.
However, Xiao Chen felt that it was strange. Why was Hwa Xuwan so happy that he was able to obtain such an award?
This was just everyone coming to have fun together. No one took it seriously, but she cared about it so much.
After getting off the stage, Xiao Chen could not help but ask, "Why do you care so much about dancing and getting an award? Aren't you usually dealing with cases? What's the meaning of getting an award for dancing?"
" Of course I do. You'll know when we get back. " Hwa Xuwan pretended to be mysterious and said.
Xiao Chen did not continue to ask. When the two of them returned home at night, Hwa Xuwan impatiently carried her trophy to a room that Xiao Chen had never been to before.
Because he was curious, Xiao Chen followed. He did not expect that there was nothing else in the room. It was actually Hwa Xuwan's mother's memorial tablet. He remembered that Hwa Xuwan previously said that her mother had gone missing since she was born.
Missing did not mean death. Why did she need to get a memorial tablet?
