Chapter 44 The Meeting Date is Moved Up
Qian Shaokang, upon hearing the laughter, glared at Chen Xuan with eyes that felt like spitting fire, instantly attributing all his humiliation to Chen Xuan. If not for Chen Xuan stealing all the spotlight, he wouldn't have suffered such disgrace! This guy was seeking death! However, this guy's skills truly made him wary... He suddenly remembered something, his eyes flashing with a cold light as he stared at Chen Xuan and grinned menacingly, "Chen Xuan, I admit you're skilled, but I heard you offended the Feng Shui master, Master Mo Yang." "Master Mo Yang is a distinguished guest of my Qian family, with exquisite Feng Shui skills. I'll give you a piece of advice: the road at night is not easy to travel, and there are ghostly spirits lurking. You should be careful on your way." Qian Shaokang coldly dropped these words and turned to leave the hotel. Around him, people whispered about how formidable Master Mo Yang was. Chen Xuan, however, smiled faintly, paying no heed to Qian Shaokang's words. Master Mo Yang was like a deity to the wealthy, but in Chen Xuan's eyes, he was merely a Feng Shui master with some cultivation. Before long, the police arrived, apprehending the Bloodhand Butcher and taking him into custody. After a few simple questions, they left in a grand procession. After the previous turmoil, the wealthy attendees were no longer in the mood for the banquet, and it concluded shortly after, with everyone departing in their vehicles. Chen Xuan also got into Su Yunxi's red convertible Ferrari supercar. Unlike before, a long convoy of bodyguard cars followed behind them. These bodyguards were specifically arranged by Zhou Changping, who was worried about another assassination attempt, but with Chen Xuan in the car, Zhou Changping felt somewhat reassured. Despite the extremely perilous events of the evening, Su Yunxi was exceptionally excited, having discovered that Chen Xuan was far more outstanding than she had ever imagined! This gave her leverage for negotiations with her family. Large families, especially prominent ones like the Su family, placed great importance on the talent of their potential in-laws. The Su family had already chosen a son-in-law for Su Yunxi, and if a better candidate emerged, their previous decision could be overturned. With this thought, Su Yunxi's suppressed mood significantly improved, and a faint dimple appeared as she curved her lips, looking exceptionally charming. Even the scenery of the overcast night seemed beautiful. Chen Xuan, meanwhile, sat in the car, his brows furrowed, contemplating the assassination incident from a professional standpoint. As the Xuan Doctor Battle Sovereign, Chen Xuan had protected national leaders and military bigwigs, and was very experienced. However, Chen Xuan couldn't quite understand why someone as reckless as the Bloodhand Butcher would be hired for an assassination. It seemed unprofessional. Unable to figure it out, Chen Xuan looked at Su Yunxi and asked, "Yunxi, have you offended anyone?" Su Yunxi was slightly taken aback, then shook her head and gave a wry smile, "I haven't been in Jiangzhou for long, I've been careful in my actions, and most people don't know my identity. I've also never had conflicts with anyone." Chen Xuan tried to find some clues from Su Yunxi, but there were none. It seemed he could only take things one step at a time. At this moment, Chen Xuan scratched his head and, after much hesitation, finally spoke, "Yunxi, can I not be the CEO of Medicine God Pharmaceuticals?" Su Yunxi was stunned and glanced at Chen Xuan unhappily, saying with displeasure, "Why? Are you afraid of Qian Shaokang's revenge? Don't worry, I can find someone to warn Qian Shaokang." Chen Xuan gave a wry smile and waved his hand, "I'm not afraid of revenge, it's just that I have no management experience. Asking me to manage Medicine God Pharmaceuticals, which is worth tens of billions, I'm afraid I'll bankrupt it." Su Yunxi's brows furrowed, and she nodded seriously, "I didn't consider that properly. Don't worry, I can have someone assist you, and there will be absolutely no mistakes." "Uh..." Chen Xuan was taken aback, then gave a wry smile. Clearly, Su Yunxi had no intention of letting him off the hook as a strong labor force. He thought for a moment and spoke again, "Yunxi, how about this, I'll be a Vice President or a standing director at Medicine God Pharmaceuticals first, learning about corporate management. When the time is right, I'll take the position of President." "That's fine too." Su Yunxi hesitated, then said, "Medicine God Pharmaceuticals still has an open Vice President position, so you can be the Vice President. You won't need to come to work much, but you must remember to come and learn management knowledge." Saying this, Su Yunxi pouted her red lips and warned him with a look, "Don't even think about shirking your duties." Chen Xuan nodded vigorously, fearing Su Yunxi might discover his true intentions. "That's more like it." Seeing Chen Xuan's expression, Su Yunxi couldn't help but laugh out loud. Soon, they arrived at the Zhou family's villa. After waving goodbye, Chen Xuan got into a car belonging to the Zhou family. A servant of the Zhou family drove, and they headed towards Chen Xuan's residence. Watching Chen Xuan's car disappear from view, Su Yunxi, who had been taught Western etiquette since childhood, took two quick steps and rushed towards the villa, quite unladylike. She could no longer wait to tell the Su family about Chen Xuan's performance today, so they could reconsider their previous marriage arrangements. Upon reaching her bedroom, Su Yunxi took out her phone and made a video call to her father, but he didn't answer. She then called her mother and grandfather. Before long, the video call connected. Su Yunxi's mother and grandfather had apparently already learned about the threat Su Yunxi had encountered, and they expressed their concern and care. The Su family had already begun mobilizing personnel to investigate the matter thoroughly. However, Su Yunxi's attention was not on this at all. She blinked her moist, beautiful eyes and asked with a smile, "Chen Xuan defeated the Bloodhand Butcher, who was wanted by the Martial Alliance, today. What do you think of him?" "Ahem..." Old Master Su was first stunned, then coughed lightly. Having lived so many years, he naturally understood Su Yunxi's intentions and gave a wry smile to Su Yunxi's mother. Su Yunxi's mother sighed and said directly, "Yunxi, Mom knows what you mean, but your father just called. In three days, the son-in-law you've chosen will come to meet you. You should prepare to move to the new residence tomorrow." Su Yunxi was struck as if by lightning! The smile on her pretty face froze, replaced by disbelief. She had thought that Chen Xuan's displayed talent would be enough to change the Su family's minds, but she never expected that the Su family had already chosen a son-in-law for her and even moved up the meeting date. Su Yunxi took a breath to control her emotions and said, "Mom, do you know how outstanding Chen Xuan is? His medical skills are miraculous; he saved Uncle's life. His martial arts are extraordinary; he can defeat the notorious Bloodhand Butcher with a single punch..." Old Master Su said, "I heard from your father that the son-in-law he chose for you is a dragon among men, not only highly skilled in martial arts but also astonishing in medical skills, and possesses earth-shattering talent in Feng Shui and metaphysics. You are in great danger now, and having him by your side will make you much safer." Su Yunxi's expression stiffened. Su Yunxi's mother also said earnestly, "That young man saved your life. I didn't stop you from letting him be the CEO of Medicine God Pharmaceuticals; consider it the Su family's repayment, and we're even. The son-in-law your father chose for you is truly excellent." "This is different..." Su Yunxi cried out. She bit her rosy lips and said firmly, "No matter what, I won't marry him!" Su Yunxi's mother said, "But this is the son-in-law your father chose, and the family has agreed." Su Yunxi then said, "Grandpa, please persuade Dad." Old Master Su gave a wry smile, "You know your father's temper. Even I can't change decisions he's made." Su Yunxi clenched her fair fists, "Dad, how can he be so overbearing? No, I need to talk to Dad." At this moment, a notification sounded. Su Yunxi's father had joined the video chat.
