Chapter 1159 The Show Begins
In the morning, at the dining table, Chen Xuan ate a fried dough stick while looking at Su Yunxi. "Yunxi, can you finally take a break this time?"
Su Yunxi had been working overtime for some time. There were no longer any forces that could threaten them in the entire Jiangnan Province, and the new photolithography machine had also been successfully developed. Su Yunxi should rest for a while.
However, Su Yunxi shook her head. "How can that be? Now that we've finally taken down the two major consortiums, I want to seize the opportunity and continue to consolidate the power of the Su family in the provincial capital. Also, although Su Tianci's death has nothing to do with you, the Su family in the capital will definitely not let it go."
The existence of the Su family in the capital still made Su Yunxi feel immense pressure.
"The Su family in the capital... that is indeed a big trouble."
Chen Xuan frowned, admitting it was true.
Although Liu Feifei had killed Su Tianci by accident, Tianhai Dan was not stupid and would never let them off.
After breakfast, Chen Xuan was quite tired and lay lazily on the sofa. At this moment, Qiu Yingying and several other women arrived at the provincial capital residence of the Su family.
Seeing them, Chen Xuan frowned. He knew these women hadn't visited for a long time. Was it going to be a volcanic eruption? He couldn't help but show a worried expression.
He glanced at Su Yunxi, only to find that Su Yunxi's expression was unusually calm.
Su Yunxi stretched out her hand and said with a smile, "You're here, please sit down! Serve tea!"
The women did not hold back and sat on the sofa.
Suddenly, Chen Xuan saw an unfamiliar face and frowned, "Who are you? I haven't seen you before."
This woman was wearing a light yellow long dress and had short hair. Her skin was as white and smooth as sheep fat jade. Below the hem of her skirt, half of her snow-white calf was exposed, which was no less impressive than Murong Meng and others.
When she heard Chen Xuan's words, she immediately said indignantly, "Chen Xuan, you scoundrel!"
After speaking, the woman also sat down on the sofa.
"I don't seem to know you. Why are you cursing?" Chen Xuan also frowned deeply. How could people's quality be so low now?
"She is Situ Qing. You don't recognize her, do you?" Murong Meng said with a giggle.
"What? You said she is Situ Qing?"
Chen Xuan was stunned and looked over abruptly. He observed the woman in the light yellow long dress. Indeed, this woman was Situ Qing. He couldn't help but chuckle in amusement.
Situ Qing usually looked like a little beggar when they met. Now that she was dressed so beautifully, he really didn't recognize her for a moment.
After rescuing Situ Qing last night, Murong Meng and the others thought it would be inconvenient for Situ Qing to go back with Chen Xuan.
Chen Xuan also thought so. Now that Situ Qing was kidnapped, he couldn't just throw her into a hotel. Therefore, he asked Murong Meng and the others to take her back. Situ Qing's current attire was also the masterpiece of Murong Meng and the others.
"Haha, I didn't recognize you. I'm really sorry." Chen Xuan laughed heartily.
"Hmph, considering you saved my life last night, I won't argue with you."
Situ Qing pouted but didn't throw a tantrum with Chen Xuan.
She looked at her delicate face reflected in the mirror nearby. Let alone Chen Xuan, even she herself didn't recognize herself for a moment.
Her teacher often said that their school of Xuan arts was the most powerful art among all Xuan sects, but she now felt that makeup was the most powerful Xuan art!
Seeing Situ Qing, Su Yunxi also frowned. Why was there another woman?
She couldn't help but glare at Chen Xuan with a hint of resentment and pinched his waist fiercely, causing Chen Xuan to cry out in pain.
You've done this...
Chen Xuan said in a low voice, "Yunxi, I'll explain later. It's really not what you think."
"Hmph!" Su Yunxi snorted charmingly.
Chen Xuan sighed helplessly.
He looked at the women sitting in the room. They were all beautiful in their own way, with different charms. Unfortunately, he didn't have the good fortune, and there was a palpable tension in the air.
He didn't dare to stay long and was contemplating how to slip away. He chuckled and said, "I'll go pour you some tea. Please, all of you, sit..."
As he spoke, Chen Xuan picked up the teapot.
"How can we let Chen Xuan pour tea and serve water? Isn't that inappropriate?" Murong Meng stood up and tried to snatch the teapot.
"No, I'll do it." Chen Xuan refused Murong Meng outright.
Then, Chen Xuan poured tea for everyone. Every time he poured, he could see snow-white legs crossed, and stylish high heels, exuding temptation everywhere.
"I drank too much tea. I'm going to the restroom... Hahaha..."
After pouring the tea, he prepared to make a dash for it.
But he was stopped by Qiu Yingying, who said, "Remember to come back after you've finished in the restroom. You only have five minutes."
"Qiu Yingying, you're going too far!" Chen Xuan frowned.
Damn it, you're even timing me when I go to the restroom?
Evidently, Qiu Yingying had seen through Chen Xuan's intentions.
"I'll time him!" Gao Chuihe also chimed in.
"If you don't come back, I'll come find you in the restroom," Murong Meng said with a charming smile.
Su Yunxi also said, "I agree!"
"Yunxi, why are you joining in the fun?" Chen Xuan looked at Su Yunxi in surprise and said with a wry smile.
"Who told you to provoke so many women?"
Su Yunxi even glanced meaningfully at Situ Qing.
See, now there's one more!
"Heavens, I'm so wronged!"
Chen Xuan felt more wronged than Dou E. He slapped his forehead and simply sat down on the sofa, shaking his head, "Forget it, I'm not going!"
The women chuckled, but clearly didn't take Chen Xuan seriously.
The reason these women united was because of Situ Qing's appearance.
However, to Chen Xuan's surprise, these women, as if they had coordinated, were chatting animatedly about designer clothing and various cosmetics. Situ Qing, sitting beside them, was utterly bewildered, having never heard of many of these brands, not even on television.
What kind of play was this?
Were they here for friendly exchange?
Obviously, Chen Xuan didn't believe it. These women wouldn't be here for such a scene early in the morning, and all of them were proud individuals who would never give up easily.
"By the way, Yunxi, let me introduce you to our good sister Situ Qing. You don't know her well yet, do you? Xiao Qing will be living with me from now on," Murong Meng said to Situ Qing, without batting an eyelid.
Su Yunxi looked at Situ Qing and said with a full smile and gentleness, "Xiao Qing, your teacher used to live here too. Why don't you move in with me?"
In an instant, Murong Meng was stunned, caught off guard by Su Yunxi's words.
They never expected Su Yunxi to make such a move. Clearly, Su Yunxi was planning to draw Situ Qing into her camp. Although they had the advantage in numbers, she was the legitimate wife, and they could only barely contend with her.
If Situ Qing were to be won over by Su Yunxi, they would have no chance of winning!
Gao Chuihe's heart sank, and her expression was not very good.
Su Yunxi was extremely shrewd in business and strategy. She never expected to be so adept in matters of the heart. Fine beads of sweat appeared on her smooth forehead.
