Chapter 385 Overshot It

"Cousin, don't shield him anymore. You should open your eyes and see how unbearable your future cousin-in-law is." Zhen Xiaoqiong said, "Besides, you can protect him for a while, but not for a lifetime."

Su Yunxi's heart stirred. Zhen Xiaoqiong had a point. Since Chen Xuan had entered the provincial capital, he should face the pressure from it. Otherwise, how could he face the behemoth in Kyoto in the future? However, Su Yunxi still didn't want Chen Xuan to be wronged. She was about to take Chen Xuan away, but at this moment, Chen Xuan squeezed her palm.

She was slightly stunned. When she came to her senses, Chen Xuan picked up the plate, pointed to the beef, and said briskly, "Young Master Guo, judging by the quality of the meat, this is pure Kobe beef, not Wagyu. And if I remember correctly, this isn't just any Wagyu, but Japanese Kobe beef. You know, only Kobe beef drinks purified water and listens to music."

"In addition, this is indeed golden caviar, but it's from Eagle Country, not Italy." Chen Xuan then pointed to the caviar.

Hearing Chen Xuan speak so eloquently, Su Yunxi's eyes lit up. From a young age, Su Yunxi had received aristocratic etiquette training from the Su family and had some knowledge of food. She also knew about such top-tier ingredients, and Chen Xuan was correct. She smiled at Guo Yulong, ready to watch him make a fool of himself.

Guo Yulong laughed heartily, "Hahaha, Kobe beef? What a joke! Miss Zhen, please help me check!"

"Glad to be of service, Young Master Guo!" Zhen Xiaoqiong quickly took out her phone and searched on Baidu. Being too confident, she didn't even look closely and read directly from the phone: "Kobe beef, raised in Kobe, Japan, is the most expensive beef in the world. The cattle here drink purified water from birth and listen to music... and have identification..."

Mid-sentence, she felt as if she had been slapped twice, her face turning purple. Guo Yulong stared at Chen Xuan as if he had seen a ghost, his face full of disbelief. How could this kid from Jiangzhou know so much?

"It must be wrong! It must be wrong!" Guo Yulong exclaimed, snatching Zhen Xiaoqiong's phone. He stared at it wide-eyed and found that it was exactly as Chen Xuan had said. This was indeed Kobe beef, not Wagyu.

"I thought people in the provincial capital knew a lot, but it turns out they're just all show and no substance..." Chen Xuan chuckled and took a bite of the beef. Su Yunxi couldn't help but snicker. Guo Yulong's usually refined face twisted grotesquely. It was understandable; Guo Yulong had intended to step on Chen Xuan and show off, but instead, he had severely embarrassed himself.

"Young Master Guo is busy with important matters, so it's understandable he wouldn't remember so much. As for you, you do nothing all day but play on your phone. Perhaps you saw it somewhere. It's just a lucky guess. I think you're wrong about the golden caviar." Zhen Xiaoqiong thought Chen Xuan was bluffing and said with a smile.

"I think so too." Young Master Guo found an excuse to save face, and his expression improved slightly. Zhen Xiaoqiong had a sudden idea and encouraged him, "Young Master Guo, why don't you check that golden caviar..." Guo Yulong also felt that Chen Xuan was guessing. With Su Yunxi present, he had to regain some dignity, so he took out his phone. He glanced at Chen Xuan and sneered, "Mr. Chen, I'm going to check now. Do you have anything to say?"

"Hurry up and check," Chen Xuan said word by word. Guo Yulong's expression instantly turned cold, and he immediately opened the app to search. When he saw it, he was completely dumbfounded.

"Young Master Guo, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" Zhen Xiaoqiong called out. Seeing that Guo Yulong didn't respond, she leaned over to look. She couldn't believe her eyes; Chen Xuan was entirely correct. She turned to look at Chen Xuan, her beautiful eyes filled with astonishment. Chen Xuan was right; this golden caviar was not from Italy but from Eagle Country. She found it hard to believe that Chen Xuan, a small security guard from the countryside, knew so much about top-tier ingredients like golden caviar that only existed in high society!

"Young Master Guo, I wasn't wrong, was I?" Chen Xuan asked, taking another small bite of the caviar and showing a look of extreme deliciousness. At this question, Young Master Guo jumped as if shocked, even dropping his phone onto the ground. He looked at Chen Xuan with a distressed expression, unsure of what to say. Even though he was extremely angry, he maintained his gentlemanly demeanor, not wanting to lose face in front of Su Yunxi.

"The food over there is quite good. Let me introduce you to someone." Under Guo Yulong's furious gaze, Su Yunxi gently hooked her arm around Chen Xuan's and walked towards the other young people.

"Damn it, my newly bought Apple phone!" Guo Yulong looked at his phone, which had shattered on the ground, his face as broken as his device.

"Young Master Guo, don't be discouraged. Don't worry, all of Su family's relatives chose you as their son-in-law. That guy is just a bumpkin; he won't amount to anything," Zhen Xiaoqiong said awkwardly. Young Master Guo nodded in agreement and said fiercely, "That's right, a country bumpkin from a small city. Do you think knowing some boring trivia makes you a provincial capital resident? No, you're just a country bumpkin!"

"You just wait! I have a bigger move!"

...

"Yunxi, is something wrong?" Chen Xuan frowned. Su Yunxi's pupils contracted, and she shook her head, "It's nothing."

"Yunxi, although we haven't gotten married yet, I am your fiancé. You can tell me if something is wrong," Chen Xuan said with a smile.

"When it's time for you to know, I'll tell you." Su Yunxi pondered for a moment, then smiled gently, "I can handle it myself."

Chen Xuan thought about it. This beautiful and incomparable woman was not a mere decorative piece but a very powerful woman. "Alright, if you encounter something you can't handle, tell me, and I'll help you."

"Sister Yunxi!" A soft voice called out. Chen Xuan turned to see a girl about eighteen or nineteen years old standing not far away, her big eyes smiling at Su Yunxi. The girl was wearing a white shirt and a black long skirt. Her attire was simple, much less extravagant compared to these wealthy families. She had a pure face, wore light makeup, and looked like a student. Unlike Zhen Xiaoqiong's worldly sophistication, this girl was clearly untouched by the harshness of society; she was very pure.

"Zhenzhen! You're here too?" Su Yunxi was also a little surprised to see the girl.

"I'm about to start work, so I came to join the fun. I'll be starting at the hospital in a couple of days," the girl said, sticking out her tongue with a smile.

"Sister Yunxi, is this your fiancé? He's quite handsome!" The girl looked at Chen Xuan and praised him generously. Hearing this, Chen Xuan revealed a slight smile. Apart from the hypocritical pleasantries from those relatives, this was the first time Chen Xuan felt a glimmer of warmth.

Su Yunxi smiled and said, "Chen Xuan, let me introduce you. This is Yang Zhenzhen, my second aunt's child. She's now a nurse in a hospital in the provincial capital."

"Hello, I'm Chen Xuan." Chen Xuan greeted her. Yang Zhenzhen chatted with Su Yunxi, and Chen Xuan learned that Yang Zhenzhen came from an ordinary family and her academic performance was not good. She graduated from a vocational school and later, through the Su family's connections, became a nurse at a private hospital.

"Brother-in-law, you have to be careful. I heard that they all want you to leave Sister Yunxi, but I can see that Sister Yunxi really likes you," Yang Zhenzhen said quietly when Su Yunxi went to get food. "You must treat Sister Yunxi well."

Chen Xuan looked at Yang Zhenzhen and smiled, "Of course."

"Oh, by the way, I heard that Young Master Guo also ordered roses to give to Sister Yunxi," Yang Zhenzhen reported secretly.
