Chapter 494 I'll Get It For You
The voice was faint, yet it carried an undeniable weight.
To the assembled crowd, their scalps tingled, and their bodies froze, as if no one would be leaving today.
Gu Junjie’s gaze swept over Chen Xuan, “What are you pretending for? Who do you think you are? Do you know our identities?”
Upon hearing this, the others snapped back to reality, glaring fiercely at Chen Xuan, some in a fit of pique.
Who were they? They were the small group that strutted through the provincial capital, with powerful backgrounds, whom even the police dared not detain. What was this fellow?
This guy was just bluffing!
The atmosphere instantly became tense and volatile.
“Young sirs, Mr. Wei instructed that Miss Linlin is to go with Mr. Chen. If you have any objections, I can call Mr. Wei.”
Just as Chen Xuan was about to make a move, the Wei family’s butler walked over, a smile on his aged face.
These young masters clearly recognized the butler-like middle-aged man. Upon hearing his words, their pupils constricted, revealing a hint of apprehension.
“Forget it, forget it. Since Mr. Wei has spoken, we should leave,” Wang Hui coughed twice and spoke first.
The others nodded in agreement.
“I can’t just take this slap for nothing, can I?” Gu Junjie grumbled discontentedly.
“Hit me! I’m the one who slapped you! Here you go!” Wei Linlin raised her fair, delicate face.
Her skin was as if it would burst at a touch, crystal clear like jade.
Gu Junjie’s expression instantly fell. He stammered, “Linlin, I didn’t mean it like that. Besides, how could I bear to hit you? Forget it, forget it…”
“For Mr. Wei’s sake, I’ll let you off this once. Don’t let me see you again!” Gu Junjie glared venomously at Chen Xuan and turned to leave, unwilling.
The others also dispersed unhappily.
With the Wei family butler intervening, it represented Mr. Wei’s wishes, and they didn’t dare to escalate the situation.
Before leaving, Wang Hui sighed, “Linlin, you’ve disappointed me too much!”
“Hey, Butler Mo, why didn’t you come out sooner? What if Chen Xuan got beaten up? Sister Yunxi would definitely make me pay.” Wei Linlin glanced at the middle-aged man and complained.
The butler looked at her words, finding them somewhat laughable.
He glanced at Chen Xuan, a smile playing on his lips, “Mr. Wei has mentioned Mr. Chen’s name quite a bit. I reckon… even if there were a conflict, it would be those guys who would suffer.”
Butler Mo wasn't there to stop the young masters; he was afraid Chen Xuan would be too ferocious and end up harming these young ladies and gentlemen, which would cause trouble.
Wei Linlin, upon hearing this, recalled her father Wei Changgeng’s praise when mentioning Chen Xuan’s skill and secretly estimated that those guys combined were likely no match for Chen Xuan.
Butler Mo looked at Chen Xuan and said apologetically, “Mr. Chen, I apologize. There are Gu family members and Wang family members in there. If anything untoward were to happen, it would be troublesome.”
Chen Xuan waved his hand dismissively, “I’m also afraid of trouble.”
Although Chen Xuan had never taken these people seriously, Butler Mo was still being kind, so he didn’t say much.
“Mr. Chen, Miss Wei has caused you trouble.”
Butler Mo smiled at Chen Xuan, entrusting Wei Linlin to Chen Xuan’s care with a sense of relief.
Wei Linlin muttered, “How could I cause trouble?”
Chen Xuan waved and walked towards the outside. Wei Linlin stuck out her tongue at Butler Mo and followed him happily, feeling like she had escaped a cage and was now free to soar.
Butler Mo watched Wei Linlin’s retreating figure and could only give a wry smile, “Alas, the provincial capital is about to be restless again.”
Wei Linlin sat in the car, chattering like a little sparrow, her face full of excitement.
“Why do you seem so pent-up?” Chen Xuan asked with a smile.
“Butler Mo is under my dad’s orders, always managing me. Now that I’ve finally escaped his control, I naturally feel stifled. But from today onwards, I can finally be myself!”
Wei Linlin laughed heartily, “Provincial capital, your eldest daughter Wei is back!”
Chen Xuan rolled his eyes.
Didn’t that sound a bit like “Hu Han San is back”?
The road was a bit congested, causing some delay. Finally, an hour later, Chen Xuan drove to the Su family villa.
Before the car had even stopped, Su Yunxi and Jiang Biyun, who had received the news, came out to greet them from the villa. Looking at Wei Linlin, who jumped out of the car, their eyes were filled with doting affection. “Linlin, Auntie misses you terribly!”
Clearly, Wei Linlin was very familiar with the Su family and felt no restraint.
Wei Linlin smiled sweetly, “Auntie, I miss you too, and I want to eat your special braised pork.”
Saying that, Wei Linlin licked her lips, looking cute and playful.
“Alright, Auntie will make it for Linlin later.” Jiang Biyun looked at Wei Linlin with doting eyes.
The group chatted and walked into the villa. Wei Linlin asked Chen Xuan to take a large suitcase out of the trunk. Inside, it wasn’t clothes but gifts that Wei Linlin had prepared for the Su family.
This won them even more cheers.
Chen Xuan finally understood why Wei Linlin was so well-loved by the Su family.
Wei Linlin had prepared a limited-edition Hermès bag for Jiang Biyun, which Jiang Biyun had long coveted but had never managed to get. Now that her wish was fulfilled, she was beaming.
As for the gift for Su Yunxi, it was a bottle of Chanel’s latest perfume.
To Chen Xuan’s surprise, Wei Linlin had actually prepared a gift for him!
“Chen Xuan, I saw you liked practicing martial arts, so I bought this for you. You’ll definitely like it.” Wei Linlin held out a box and placed it in Chen Xuan’s hand with a smile.
“There’s a gift for me too?” Chen Xuan was a bit surprised.
“Don’t be too surprised, I just bought it for you along the way.”
Wei Linlin blinked her beautiful eyes.
Even though she said that, judging by the exquisite look of the box, it was likely not an ordinary item.
“Open the box and see,” Wei Linlin looked at Chen Xuan expectantly.
Chen Xuan opened the box and couldn’t help but frown. Inside was a pair of blue professional boxing gloves.
However, the craftsmanship and texture were truly questionable, and there was a slightly pungent smell.
But since it was one of the few gifts Chen Xuan had received, he looked at Wei Linlin, “Thank you.”
Wei Linlin was quite sensitive and noticed Chen Xuan’s expression was off. She said softly, “You don’t like it, do you?”
“Chen Xuan, how could you not like it? These are the boxing gloves personally autographed by the Southern Fist King, who is known for Southern Fist and Northern Leg! I’ve been trying to get them from the Southern Fist King’s live stream for a long time!”
Saying that, Wei Linlin’s eyes widened in disbelief.
The Southern Fist King was hailed as a grandmaster, had won many international awards, and enjoyed a high reputation in the southern martial arts circles.
Chen Xuan’s mouth twitched.
It seemed like anyone and everyone was live-streaming nowadays.
However, this wasn’t surprising. Nowadays, which first-tier celebrity or company executive didn't do live streaming sales? It would be embarrassing to say they were in the industry.
This might be the current situation, but the product quality was too poor.
“It’s very good, I like it very much.” Chen Xuan smiled, not wanting to embarrass Wei Linlin.
“That’s more like it. This is the first gift I’ve given you, you must treasure it.” Wei Linlin said carelessly.
Chen Xuan felt like crying and laughing.
After dinner, Wei Linlin found Su Yunxi and pouted, looking wronged, “Sister Yunxi, because of Chen Xuan, I didn’t get tickets to Shishi’s fan meeting. You have to compensate me properly.”
“Shishi?” Su Yunxi looked up.
“The big star He Qiongshi!”
For those who didn’t recognize her big star, Wei Linlin would give a big eye roll, and this time was no exception.
Then, Wei Linlin explained the situation to Su Yunxi.
He Qiongshi?
Seeing this, Chen Xuan smiled and said, “Linlin, don’t trouble Yunxi. I’ll get those fan meeting tickets for you.”
