Beautiful CEO's Super Expert

"What else could it be, of course it's about my cousin."

Xu Xinran took a bite of her noodles and sighed,

"These past couple of days, her temper has been pretty bad. For some reason, she's always angry, and it's dangerous. Her face is always sullen, so I've hidden myself away over here."

"Qiuru? What's wrong with her exactly?"

Xia Qiuru still held a special place in Su Chen's heart, although they had made it clear to each other that they were just going to be good friends from now on.

But in reality, both of them knew that some feelings can't just be erased on command.

As soon as Su Chen heard about Xia Qiuru, he immediately asked anxiously.

Seeing Su Chen's anxious expression, Xu Xinran felt a sourness in her heart:

"What else could have happened? Her parents are pressuring her to marry, calling her every day to go on blind dates with some guy. It's driving her mad."

"Then she should just go and see. If the guy isn't bad, she could just date him and see how it goes," Su Chen replied.

Although he felt somewhat uncomfortable about Xia Qiuru seeing another man, he knew he couldn't be that selfish.

Because he was already married, he couldn't give her a proper status, so whether he liked it or not, he had to let go and wish her happiness.

"You men really are heartless and merciless creatures!"

Xu Xinran had felt sour earlier when Su Chen seemed so worried about his cousin, but now, hearing what Su Chen said, a wave of anger rose within her. Experience tales at My Virtual Library Empire

"Don't tell me you don't know who Qiuru likes in her heart."

Xu Xinran put down her chopsticks and said coldly.

Her words struck Su Chen like a blow, leaving him suddenly speechless and falling into silence.

Xu Xinran also had a fiery temper, and seeing Su Chen silent, she became even more infuriated.

"My cousin must be blind, fancying someone like you who lacks responsibility!"

"Xinran, I won't deny that I have a liking for Qiuru, possibly even a strong fondness, but I'm already married. What can I do?" Su Chen took a deep drag of his cigarette and spoke faintly.

At his words, Xu Xinran was stupefied, the anger in her body deflating like a balloon pricked with a hole.

"You, you're married?"

Xu Xinran asked, her face full of confusion, her mind seeming to go blank all at once.

"Yes."

Su Chen nodded. If it weren't for the fact that he was already married, he might really have accepted Xia Qiuru's feelings, as she indeed was such a wonderful woman.

"Alright, it's getting late. I'm going to head back to my room."

"You haven't finished your noodles yet?"

"I don't want them anymore."

"Bang!"

Xu Xinran returned to the bedroom with a wooden expression and promptly closed the door behind her.

"What's gotten into this girl? Why would she react like this to hearing about my marriage?"

Su Chen muttered to himself, but didn't think too much of it. He tidied up briefly and went to cultivate.

"He's actually married?"

"Why would he get married?"

"How could he just get married?"

...

Xu Xinran tossed and turned in bed, plagued by this question, her headache growing worse the more she thought...

She didn't know how much time had passed before she finally drifted off to sleep.

In her dream, she saw a man walking toward her with a wicked smile on his face...

"Ah!"

At that moment, Xu Xinran suddenly woke up from her sleep, letting out a faint startled cry.

"Was I dreaming? How could I dream of that bastard?"

Xu Xinran found her heartbeat to be very fast, and when she touched her cheek with her hand, she found her face was already burning hot.

After a while, her heartbeat slowly calmed down. She looked outside the window and saw that the sky was already lightly bright. Not feeling like sleeping anymore, she decided to get dressed and get up.

At this time, Su Chen had just completed the last cycle of his cultivation technique. His whole body was in a very mystical state, ethereal and light!

"Hoo~~"

Twenty minutes later, Su Chen finally opened his eyes and let out a long breath. Tonight's cultivation was also complete.

The estate truly deserved to be a place of heavenly spirit and earthly talent. He had only been cultivating here for a few days, yet he felt that his Seventh Layer realm had already become very stable, which greatly exceeded his expectations.

After finishing his cultivation, Su Chen simply took a quick shower and then walked out, just as dawn was breaking.

As he stepped out of the house, he saw a graceful figure practicing on the lawn in front of him, one moment kicking high, the next throwing a hook punch.

The movements, fluid like drifting clouds and flowing water, were a pleasure to watch!

"Officer Xu, you're quite diligent!"

A little while later, Su Chen walked up and said casually.

"Why are you up so early?"

Xu Xinran glanced at him and asked, her heart tensing slightly as she recalled the dream from the night!

"I have to go back and make breakfast for my wife," Su Chen replied with a natural smile.

"Oh."

Upon hearing this, Xu Xinran's expression immediately dimmed.

That's right, he already had a wife. She hadn't expected him to be so caring toward his wife, rushing back to make her breakfast so early in the morning.

Huh, why isn't he sleeping with his wife but staying alone in this estate?

Could it be that their relationship isn't good?

At this thought, Xu Xinran's heart started to race again...

Su Chen looked at the young woman's changing expressions and felt puzzled, not understanding what she was thinking.

However, he didn't think too much about it; after all, a woman's thoughts are always very complex!

Just then, Xu Xinran's mobile phone, which was placed on a stone table nearby, rang. She saw that it was Jiang Lixing who was calling and quickly answered the phone.

After the call ended, Xu Xinran's face suddenly turned very pale.

"What's the matter?"

When she hung up, Su Chen asked, somewhat surprised.

"The body of that young girl who went missing has been found," Xu Xinran said, somewhat dejectedly.

"Let's go, I'll come with you to take a look," Su Chen said with a somber expression, recalling the bizarre missing person case Xu Xinran had spoken about before.

"But we need the approval of the chief!" Xu Xinran replied:@@novelbin@@

"I need to ask for permission."

"No problem, I'll speak with him when we get there," Su Chen reassured Xu Xinran:

"Let's hurry up and go!"

Soon, the two of them got into Su Chen's BMW and sped off toward the southeast of Jianghai City...
