Yuan Ye also helplessly walked forward and patted Yang Chen's shoulder, "Brother Yang, what's there to be angry about? I'm talking to your peers, and Tangtang calls you uncle. Isn't it because she's younger than me? I haven't paid any attention to her."
"It's over, it's all over." Yang Chen didn't really feel anything from Yuan Ye calling him big brother. He just waved his hand and said, "Looks like I don't have any human rights in this house."
"You just found out." Lin Ruoxi didn't forget to add insult to injury. She didn't bother to pay attention to Yang Chen who was feeling depressed and asked Yuan Ye, "You must be the eldest son of Yuan Family?"
Seemingly a little nervous facing Lin Ruoxi, Yuan Ye replied with a bashful smile, "Yes, my name is Yuan Ye, how do you do, Director Lin?"
Lin Ruoxi smiled, "You don't have to be so nervous. You are Yang Chen's friend, so you are of the same generation as me and not my subordinate."
"Before I came here, I've heard a lot about Director Lin, and my dad often uses Director Lin's operations in the mall as a model. In fact, I've always admired Director Lin, because I'm not good at doing business, so my dad always tells me that if I'm half as good as Director Lin, then he won't have to worry about the rest of his life." Yuan Ye spoke with sincerity, seemingly not speaking carelessly.
Lin Ruoxi was slightly surprised. Even though she had seen Yuan Heewei a few times before during the Liu Family Banquet, she did not expect Yuan Heewei to praise her so highly in front of her son.
Tangtang blinked her big eyes and said with starry eyes, "Big sister, so you're so amazing. Uncle Yuan rarely praises anyone!"
"Your father is too kind, I'm not that good. We didn't prepare anything when you guys came to greet us so early. Quickly go sit on the sofa, I'll make tea for you guys." Lin Ruoxi said as she walked into the kitchen to ask Nanny Wang for tea and hot water.
Since the family did not drink tea, the water dispenser and the like were not commonly prepared. Guests also had to boil some water.
When Yuan Ye sat down with Tangtang, Hui Lin went to the table and ate breakfast with Yang Chen. Seeing the furious look on Yang Chen's face, Hui Lin smiled and said, "Brother Yang, don't be so stingy. Tangtang looks like a straightforward girl. She was outside the door just now."
Yang Chen blushed as he saw Hui Lin talking. He asked with some doubts, "What do you want to say? Just say it."
"She thinks of me as your wife," Hui Lin said as she lowered her head, not daring to look at Yang Chen.
Yang Chen was astounded. He knew that Hui Lin was thinking about the 'mission' that Senior Nun Yun Miao had given him and that the nun had thrown her granddaughter to his side, ignoring her completely. Yang Chen was also speechless. He smiled and said to Hui Lin, "Don't think too much. Go ahead and eat. Do you think I'm the kind of person who's angry over such a small thing?"
"Oh …" Hui Lin was slightly disappointed in her heart.
When Lin Ruoxi came out with a kettle of tea to make tea for Yuan Ye and Tangtang with a smile, Yuan Ye suddenly thought of something and nervously asked Lin Ruoxi, "Director Lin, can I …"
Lin Ruoxi looked at his red face and said sweetly, "Say it, I'm not a man-eating demon."
Lin Ruoxi smiled a lot as her relationship with Yang Chen melted away.
"Erm, can I … call you sister-in-law?" Yuan Ye asked with a stiff smile.
In fact, before they left, Yuan Ye's mother, Yang Jieyu, warned their son. When he saw that Lin Ruoxi wanted to call him "sister-in-law", Yuan Ye felt strange. But he thought that his mother wanted him to treat Yang Chen as her brother, and that Lin Ruoxi was one of the richest women in Zhong Hai. She had no problem with being his sister-in-law, so she ordered him to do so.
Lin Ruoxi's face turned red the moment she heard that name. Her heart was pounding like a deer. She glanced at Yang Chen, who was eating, and thought to herself, "Did that guy tell me to do this?"
On the other hand, Nanny Wang was grinning from ear to ear, "Young Master Yuan Family sure is something, of course it's alright, it's so intimate."
"Hehe, is that so?" Yuan Ye touched the back of his head in a silly manner, "Then I'll call you sister-in-law from now on."
This matter seemed to have been decided.
When Tangtang heard this, she muttered a few words and also smiled coquettishly. Following Yuan Ye, she sweetly called Lin Ruoxi "sister-in-law"!
This time, Lin Ruoxi had the urge to run out the door. In front of the two guests, her face was red to the ears. She felt awkward and happy at the same time. It was hard to explain, but she seemed to like it when she was in a daze.
Yang Chen was having breakfast, but when he heard Yuan Ye call him, he subconsciously thought of something. A hint of melancholy appeared between his brows, but he didn't say anything and just continued eating.
Yuan Ye and Tangtang immediately started to interact with Lin Ruoxi, as if they had really become family. Their family's elder sister-in-law chatted with her brother and sister-in-law, asking them what they did, how they got to know Yang Chen, and how their family was like.
Lin Ruoxi did not have many friends in the first place. Now that she suddenly had two young friends of the same generation and even called herself "sister-in-law", she could not help but feel a bit more excited.
Seeing this, Nanny Wang smiled contentedly as she returned to the kitchen to continue preparing the food. It seemed that she wanted Yuan Ye and Tangtang to stay for lunch.
Seeing that Lin Ruoxi was just sitting there chatting with the two kids, Yang Chen shouted, "Wife, are you not going to eat breakfast?"
Lin Ruoxi was just having fun with Tangtang when she casually said, "Eat it yourself."
Yang Chen rolled his eyes. "So it's like that. It's only been one night, but I've been 'beaten into a cold palace' again."
However, before he could open his mouth and eat a bun, the doorbell rang again.
Yang Chen gasped, "It can't be, so strange. Is someone here to pay a new year visit?"
Looking at the confused Yuan Ye and Tangtang, Yang Chen asked, "You aren't colluding with others to disturb my breakfast, are you?"
"Big brother, why are we so bored?" Yuan Ye smiled bitterly.
Hui Lin stood up. "I'll open the door," she said as she ran to the front door and opened it.
However, as soon as she opened the door, Hui Lin seemed to freeze on the spot. It was as if she had seen something that made her feel incomparably surprised. She stood there dumbly, unable to utter a word.
Everyone's eyes followed the direction of the voice and looked over. They saw a tall man with a handsome face and black short hair. He wore a black tight leather suit. His skin was fair and white as he walked into the house.
The man's gaze was extremely focused, as if his gaze could pierce through anyone's heart, making it hard to resist. His entire person was like the same peerless famous sword that caused people to feel dazzled.
What made everyone in the room even more surprised was that Cai Ning, who wore a light colored windbreaker and had long hair draped over her shoulders, actually followed behind the man and entered the house. She looked at everyone with a helpless expression.
"I'm sorry, I can't stop him from coming here to find Hui Lin." Cai Ning said.
Everyone present recognized Cai Ning as the young miss of Cai Family, and her identity was not ordinary either. Who was this man, to actually be able to make her say "unstoppable"?
"Why are you here …" Hui Lin looked at the handsome young man and finally said a few words in a faint voice.
A hint of fanaticism appeared in the man's eyes. "Hui, why are you here?"
"Where I am has nothing to do with you …"
After Hui Lin finished her sentence, she turned around as if she didn't want to see this man, and was about to run away.
The man grabbed onto Hui Lin's arm like lightning, "Hui! I won't let you leave me again! "
"Yang Lieh, what right do you have to care about me!?" Hui Lin seemed to be angry as well. She increased the strength in her hands as if she wanted to break free from Yang Lieh's imprisonment.
However, Yang Lieh's hand was like a tiger's mouth biting down on its prey. No matter how hard Hui Lin tried, she was unable to break free.
It had to be known that Hui Lin had practiced martial arts since she was young. Although her martial arts were lacking, she had still inherited Senior Nun Yun Miao's teachings. Even if there were dozens of ordinary men operating their inner force, they still wouldn't be able to defeat a single woman. However, in the hands of Yang Lieh, this power was not even worth mentioning!
"You are the woman I like, of course I care!"
Yang Lieh said in an extremely domineering manner. Then, he turned his head towards the other people present, looking down at them like a creator looking at all living beings in front of him.
"No matter who you are, what does it have to do with my Hui? I must bring her away from here today." After he finished speaking, Yang Lieh planned to immediately drag Hui Lin away.
Hui Lin knew that she couldn't break free, so she turned around and gave Yang Chen, who was holding a bowl, a pleading look. The grief and anxiety in her eyes were so pitiful.
Yang Chen sighed inwardly. Originally, he felt weird about this guy called "Yang Lieh", but now he couldn't think of anything else. Hui Lin was on good terms with him, and Lin Ruoxi was his sister by blood, so how could he let her be taken away by a "man who likes her"?
If this matter were to be placed on Lin Ruoxi, wouldn't most of the men on the streets want to bring her away?
"Let go of Hui Lin." Yang Chen said to Yang Lieh, who was about to leave.
Yang Lieh stopped and turned his head to look at Yang Chen. On the other hand, Hui Lin's face lit up. She knew that even though she was no match for Yang Lieh, Yang Chen was an existence that could suppress everything.
"On what basis?" Yang Lieh mocked.
Yang Chen put down his bowl and chopsticks, stood up and said with a frown, "You think you're amazing. No one can stop you from doing what you want to do, right?"
"Don't tell me …"
Before Yang Lieh could finish his sentence, he suddenly felt a massive pressure engulfing his entire body's blood vessels. Even that terrifying pressure had caused the aura in his body to become extremely chaotic!
This is...
Before he could think about it, Yang Lieh let go of Hui Lin's hand instinctively and used all the power he could muster to slap forward!
However, the result left him completely helpless!
He only felt a seemingly gentle power brushing across his entire body before Yang Lieh's body was unconsciously pushed out of the door by a ball of air!
Yang Lieh twirled a few times in a row and lost all the strength in his body. Cold sweat dripped from his forehead. He suddenly raised his head and saw Hui Lin protected behind him. He didn't know when, but the man had already stood where he was.
Yang Chen's Memory Deriving Scripture had broken through to the Perfection Stage of the ninth layer. It was no longer the same as before, and his terrifying strength also stunned Cai Ning. Although she did not know how strong Yang Chen was, she felt that he was much stronger than when she saw him fight before!
However, Cai Ning was finally convinced that Yang Lieh was slightly stronger than her. If she had met with what happened just now, she definitely wouldn't have been able to deal with the surging power after a few laps.
Unfortunately, so what? He could only look up to this man who was called "God".
"Who exactly are you? How can there be someone like you in Zhonghai …" Yang Lieh seemed to find it hard to believe. He turned around and asked Cai Ning who was silent, "Hua Yu, this guy, who is he?"
"He's the one you think is just 'unworthy' …" Cai Ning replied indifferently.
Yang Lieh narrowed his eyes, "So it's you …" I heard that you have helped the Dragon Group people in the Tibetan area with quite a few things. Sky Dragon, that guy said that you are so powerful, looks like you truly have some skills. "
Yang Chen was a little surprised. Yang Lieh seemed to sense the huge difference in strength between the two of them, and he did not fear him. He was not sure if Yang Lieh was blindly arrogant or if he had some other support.
