Days of Living with My Sister-in-Law-Chapter 285: A Long Road Ahead
"Uh, it was indeed me, but I didnโt mean to do it." ๐ฏ๐ง๐๐๐ฌ๐๐๐ฃ๐ค๐๐ฎ๐ต.๐๐ค๐ข
Chen Xiaobei quickly explained.
"You bastard!"
Murong Xiaoyi didnโt listen at all and immediately kicked toward Chen Xiaobei.
The power of the Third Grade of the Heavenly Rank was fully unleashed by this fierce girl, causing the surrounding air to almost freeze!
However, for Chen Xiaobei at that moment, this level of strength was nothing. He slightly moved to the side, dodging Murong Xiaoyiโs attack using the Seven Star Tian Gang Step.
"Can you be reasonable? I didnโt do it on purpose! If you keep being cocky, donโt blame me for being rude to you!"
Running to the door, Chen Xiaobei scolded her.
This annoying girl โ liking Luo Qingcheng is one thing, but now sheโs making a move on Xi Yao. Chen Xiaobei really wanted to beat her up, also to test his own strength.
"Bring it on, whoโs afraid of you?"
Murong Xiaoyi rolled up her sleeves in response.
Seeing this, Xi Yao quickly held her back and said, "Alright Xiaoyi, this matter isnโt really Chen Xiaobeiโs fault. When I was transferring power to him, he wasnโt fully conscious, and my Celestial Demon Sacred Body can handle this minor injury. Just a little rest, and Iโll be fine."
"Sister Yaoyao, youโre always so good to him!"
Murong Xiaoyi felt heartbroken, holding Xi Yao in her arms, looking like a caring little husband, making Chen Xiaobei uncomfortable.
Initially, Chen Xiaobei planned to stay over at Xi Yaoโs place that night.
After all, he hadnโt spent time with Xi Yao for a long time, but with Murong Xiaoyiโ the third wheelโ around, he had to give up.
Thinking it through, Chen Xiaobei decided to take Qiu Xingcai back to the old house.
At present, his auntโs level had returned to Grandmaster, and he planned to discuss things in the morning and go into the mountains with his aunt to find Xiao Hua and gather herbs.
However, plans can never keep up with changes.
Early the next morning, Luo Qingcheng pulled Chen Xiaobei out of bed,
"Xiaobei, thereโs something I need to tell you!"
"What is it, Qingcheng?"
Yawning, Chen Xiaobei didnโt bother to hide anything from Luo Qingcheng, knowing she was aware of his relationship with Qiu Xingcai, so he just pulled Luo Qingcheng into his arms.
"Iโve missed you so much! Give me a kiss!"
"Ew! You havenโt brushed your teeth, stinky!"
Annoyed, Luo Qingcheng quickly dodged his advances and said,
"Hereโs the thing, last night after I let Miss Qin try our First Love Nourishing Frost, she was very pleased with the results. So she proposed a collaboration with us, using the Qin Familyโs reputation to open all the market channels in the Lower Three Continents for us. As for profit sharing, itโs fifty-fifty,
I thought about it. Even though the Qin Family might gain more, they are one of the top families in the Lower Three Continents, and with their help, expanding the market would be much stronger than doing it ourselves, so I agreed."
"No problem at all."
Chen Xiaobei chuckled, "For this kind of thing in the future, you donโt need to tell me. Just make your own decisions."
"Thatโs not why Iโm telling you!"
Luo Qingcheng rolled her eyes at him, "The thing is, Miss Qin plans to hold a signing ceremony in Songshan today, at your sister-in-lawโs Xinghe Grand Hotel, and Miss Qin specifically asked you to attend. Iโve heard sheโs also invited many business and political elites from Songshan and Qingyang."
"I know you donโt like Qin Shihua, but since itโs our first collaboration with the Qin Family, I think itโs better for you to attend, otherwise it might seem disrespectful to Qin Shihua."
"Alright."
Without a second thought, Chen Xiaobei agreed.
After all, without Qin Shihua, Chen Xiaobei wouldnโt have met the twin beauties, and last nightโs event would have been a fiasco.
Strictly speaking, Qin Shihua is somewhat of a benefactor to him, so he wouldnโt refuse her invitation!
After tidying up, Chen Xiaobei accompanied Luo Qingcheng to Xinghe Grand Hotel.
As soon as they got out of the car, his sister-in-lawโs beautiful silhouette came into Chen Xiaobeiโs view.
She was wearing a light blue office lady outfit, with long, straight legs wrapped in pure black stockings, her long hair tied up at the back, looking both beautiful and dashing!
As the hotel manager, in such an important occasion, his sister-in-law must personally greet the guests at the door.
Although she seemed a bit nervous, with Qiao Shu by her side, she managed to stay relatively calm.
Seeing how elegant and dignified Shen Jiawen looked, all the male guests couldnโt help but stop for a brief chat, quickly filling her pockets with business cards.
Some idiotic fools even asked Shen Jiawen if she had a boyfriend and tried to pursue her, only to be rejected by her.
From a distance, seeing his sister-in-law skillfully managing things, Chen Xiaobei finally felt at ease.
Grabbing Luo Qingchengโs hand, he shamelessly walked up.
"Sister-in-law, I was worried you might need some time to adjust, but youโve already got the hang of it in just a couple of days. Well done!"
"Itโs not me! Itโs all thanks to Qiao Shuโs guidance!"
Shen Jiawen gave him a sidelong glance, awkwardly saying, "Itโs been a while, Boss Luo! Congratulations on your collaboration with the Qin Family. The company is surely going to grow even bigger!"
Luo Qingcheng felt even more awkward than Shen Jiawen, pulling her hand away forcefully, she said,
"Sister-in-law, youโre giving me too much credit. Itโs all thanks to Xiaobei. Without him, Iโd still just be a supermarket owner now!"
"Iโm sorry, the company has been too busy recently, so I havenโt had the time to visit you. Congratulations to you too for becoming a manager!"
Saying this, Luo Qingcheng shook hands with Shen Jiawen.
Standing nearby, Qiao Shu felt a bit envious. After all, technically speaking, she was also one of Chen Xiaobeiโs women, but she was still just a secretary.
However, Qiao Shu also understood that the reason she could be with Chen Xiaobei was purely because she took the initiative. There wasnโt really any deep emotional connection between them.
Thereโs a saying "good things come to those who wait," right? She believed that one day Chen Xiaobei would introduce her to these sisters!
With that thought, Qiao Shu said, "Mr. Shen, Miss Qin said sheโll arrive at ten oโclock. I should go check on how the venue is set up. After all, this is a big event with the top figures from the Lower Three Continents attending, so nothing can go wrong."
"Okay, Iโll go with you. Xiaobei, excuse us for now!"
After saying that, Shen Jiawen shyly ran off.
In fact, Chen Xiaobei understood that this kind of task could be left to Qiao Shu, and the reason his sister-in-law ran off was entirely due to nervousness and shyness.
She was a very traditional woman and still hadnโt fully accepted Chen Xiaobeiโs lifestyle.
Otherwise, she wouldnโt have stayed out all night before!
Thinking of this, Chen Xiaobei suddenly realized that achieving the "conquer the sister-in-law" goal might still be a long and arduous journey.
But Chen Xiaobei also believed that as long as he showed sincerity, one day he would make his sister-in-law let go of the barriers in her heart!
Soon, everyone who was attending the signing ceremony had arrived.
Luxurious cars lined up at the hotel entrance, and people came in an endless stream, most of whom were from Qingyang and the surrounding cities and counties, all unfamiliar faces to Chen Xiaobei!
And just at that moment, two familiar figures appeared in Chen Xiaobeiโs sight.
