Chapter 818 Heading to the Provincial City Murong Family
"What are you shy about? When a man is grown, he marries, and when a woman is grown, she marries. Finding a good son-in-law like Chen Xuan is really great."
Old Master Murong's face was full of pride.
In Jiangzhou, mentioning Chen Xuan's name was more effective than the three great mountains of Jiangzhou, and Jiangzhou's economic level had also risen because of Chen Xuan, now ranking second in the entire Jiangnan Province only after the provincial capital.
Therefore, a statue of Chen Xuan was erected in the city center.
If Chen Xuan were to become the Murong family's son-in-law, it would be as if their ancestors had burned high incense.
Moreover, Murong Meng had snatched the man from the Su family's daughter. The Murong family's daughter was formidable!
"Grandpa... I wish I could, but there really isn't!" Murong Meng said with a pained expression, shaking her head.
"Oh?"
Seeing that Murong Meng didn't seem to be lying, Old Master Murong frowned and said, "Then just now..."
Murong Meng fell silent.
Old Master Murong felt a deep disappointment, sighed, and said, "It seems it was an encounter with an old acquaintance. Chen Xuan was just being polite out of respect for both being from Jiangzhou."
Afterwards, Old Master Murong thumped his chest and stomped his feet in regret, wondering why Chen Xuan wasn't his grandson-in-law.
Murong Meng revealed the true face of Fang Shuo, the young master of the Fang family, to Old Master Murong, which almost made Old Master Murong faint from anger.
"I thought I would find a good home for you, but I didn't expect him to be a scumbag! And that Murong family from the provincial capital, knowing he was a scumbag, still forced you to marry that fellow. Detestable, truly detestable!"
Old Master Murong gritted his teeth, his face turning green with anger.
Old Master Murong knew that Murong Meng had always liked Chen Xuan, but Chen Xuan was already Su Yunxi's fiancé.
Murong Meng could not get what she desired, and as she grew older, she worried about delaying her marriage. So, when the Murong family from the provincial capital came looking, Old Master Murong agreed. After all, the Fang family seemed to have good conditions and, in his opinion, was a good match.
But he never expected the young master of the Fang family to be such a person. If he had known, he would never have let Murong Meng marry into the Fang family!
"Grandpa, don't be angry anymore. The Fang family has already gone bankrupt!"
Murong Meng quickly comforted Old Master Murong.
Old Master Murong was not in good health. What if he got too angry and something happened to him?
"Bankrupt?"
Old Master Murong looked at Murong Meng in surprise.
"It's absolutely true!"
Murong Meng nodded and roughly told Old Master Murong what she had seen in the provincial capital.
Old Master Murong fell into deep thought. He suddenly looked at Chen Xuan's retreating back, then thumped his thighs in annoyance, "If I had known, I would have even drugged you to make something happen between you two!"
Murong Meng might not have guessed, but Old Master Murong knew. The downfall of the Fang family must have been because of Chen Xuan!
That was one of the four great families of the provincial capital, and now they were ruined by Chen Xuan!
How many months had Chen Xuan been in the provincial capital?
Perhaps only a big place like the capital was Chen Xuan's stage!
"Grandpa, what are you saying? Drugged..." Murong Meng was speechless.
Grandpa, how could you say such shameless things?
Old Master Murong was unconcerned.
If he could find a son-in-law like Chen Xuan, even if he had to do something despicable, he felt it would be justified.
With such a son-in-law, why bother about dignity?
"Grandpa, stop talking. Let's hurry to the Murong family."
Murong Meng couldn't bear to listen anymore, looking helpless.
Old Master Murong nodded, his eyes filled with anticipation.
After receiving Chen Xuan's call, Old Master Murong was bewildered. He asked him to take over the Murong family in the provincial capital. Was he kidding?
But now, it definitely didn't seem like a joke!
After all, even the Fang family, one of the four great families of the provincial capital, had been ruined by Chen Xuan!
Old Master Murong had brought quite a few people, so Chen Xuan had two more cars brought over for them to fit.
After some time, the vehicles slowly stopped in front of the Murong family's residence in Xuan County. A group of people got out of the cars.
"Stop! This is the private property of the Murong family, no entry allowed!"
As soon as they got out of the car, a cold shout sounded.
Chen Xuan turned his head and saw a person from the Murong family, accompanied by more than a dozen guards, walking over. Judging by his appearance, he seemed to be a small leader.
"I want to see the Murong family head!" Chen Xuan said in a deep voice.
"You still want to see our Murong family head? Who do you think you are? Can you see our Murong family head just because you want to?"
This person from the Murong family glanced at Chen Xuan, clearly not recognizing him.
However, it was understandable. The Murong family had hundreds of members, and not many had actually seen Chen Xuan.
"Is it not possible?"
Chen Xuan frowned.
"To see our Murong family head, you need to make an appointment first. Did you make an appointment? Our Murong family head is very busy." the person from the Murong family said.
Chen Xuan smiled.
He never expected the Murong family to have so many rules.
"Murong Zhong, is it not even possible for me to see him?"
Suddenly, Old Master Murong stepped forward and said coldly.
"Murong Bo? You've come to the provincial capital?"
The person called Murong Zhong turned his head. Upon seeing Old Master Murong, he was greatly surprised, but he still recognized Old Master Murong at a glance.
In terms of seniority, Murong Zhong was one generation younger than Old Master Murong. He called Old Master Murong uncle, though the blood relation was already very distant.
"Indeed!" Old Master Murong nodded.
Murong Zhong was initially a little surprised, but when he saw Murong Meng, he immediately understood and snorted, "Good, Murong Zhong, your granddaughter not only caused a great disaster, but you also broke your promise and set foot in the provincial capital. I think you want to be punished by the Murong family!"
Years ago, the Murong family had issued a directive to Old Master Murong's branch, forbidding them from entering the provincial capital without the permission of the Murong family in the provincial capital. However, Old Master Murong was now in the provincial capital, which he considered a complete violation of the rules.
"My granddaughter caused a great disaster? How ridiculous! The Murong family in the provincial capital found a scumbag son-in-law for my granddaughter. I haven't even settled the score with the Murong family in the provincial capital, and you dare to trouble me?"
Old Master Murong cursed, "As for the provincial capital, I, Murong Zhong, come and go as I please, and no one can control me! What is the Murong family in the provincial capital?"
"Good, you dare to insult the Murong family in the provincial capital? You're seeking death! Take them all down!"
Murong Zhong shouted.
The guards behind him immediately rushed forward, surrounding Old Master Murong and the others.
Old Master Murong's expression darkened.
The Murong family was a martial arts force. Although he had summoned all the experts from his home when he came, he might not be able to defeat them.
Chen Xuan chuckled dismissively and was about to make a move, but Murong Meng stepped forward and said, "Stop! Murong Huanghe called me yesterday and told us to come!"
"Hmm?"
Murong Zhong waved his hand, stopping the guards, and looked at Murong Meng.
"Are you kidding? Huanghe would call you?"
"Don't believe me? Then I'll call Murong Huanghe!"
Murong Meng said, then directly called Murong Huanghe.
A moment later, she handed the phone to Murong Zhong, "Murong Huanghe will speak to you!"
Murong Zhong took the phone, and his expression changed the next moment. He said, "Alright, alright, I'll let them in. I understand... please don't worry..."
