Chapter 372 Su Chen's Little Scheme
"So have you thought about what to do next?" Lv Fang asked.
"Don't worry, Father, I already have a plan!"
Lv Shimo said calmly.
"Good, that's good. Then I'll go back to my room now."
Lv Fang stood up, slowly turned around, and walked out. When he reached the doorway, he stopped:
"Since this person is the real culprit who killed your brother, he must die!"
"I know, Father!"
Lv Fang nodded, continued walking out, and closed the door behind him.
After his father left, Lv Shimo stood up, lit a cigar, walked to the window, opened the curtains, and muttered while looking at the dark night sky outside:
"Su Chen, you will also be going to Tianshan with Lin Ruoxue this year! Don't worry, I have already prepared a feast for you there!"
.....
The next day, Su Chen finished his cultivation early in the morning and, as usual, returned to the villa to make breakfast for Lin Ruoxue.
Today, being Saturday, he was slightly later than usual.
After breakfast, the maid went out to buy groceries, leaving only Lin Ruoxue and Su Chen in the house.
At that time, the resentment and anger in Lin Ruoxue's heart had almost disappeared, thanks to Su Chen's playful antics.
As those emotions faded, fear began to spread; after all, Su Chen had offended the number one great family in Jiangnan!
Su Chen clearly saw Lin Ruoxue's concern and laughed:
"Honey, are you worried about the Wu Family seeking revenge?"
"How could I not be? That's the Wu Family! How can we fight against such a powerful family with our limited means?"
Lin Ruoxue spat in frustration.
"Don't worry, with me here, nothing will happen," Su Chen said nonchalantly.
"It's easy for you to say, but how can I not worry?"
Lin Ruoxue's anxiety naturally did not ease with just one sentence from Su Chen; she remained quite worried.
"Honey, after I fought Liu Qing, that toad, weren't you worried then too? But look at me now, aren't I still fine?"@@novelbin@@

"True, yeah, why haven't they retaliated?"
Lin Ruoxue had not really thought about it until Su Chen mentioned it.
Now that she remembered, she too began to wonder.
"Who knows? But this just shows that you're worrying over nothing. Even if these families do seek revenge, I am not afraid, don't you trust your husband?"
Su Chen gently took her hand and patted it softly.
"But that's still the Wu Family!"
"But your husband is no ordinary man either, you know that."
Su Chen stood up, gently embraced her, giving her a sense of safety, and said softly in her ear:
"Trust me!"
"Mm!"
Felling the warmth of Su Chen's broad chest, Lin Ruoxue felt somewhat less uneasy.
At that moment, apart from trusting Su Chen, she didn't have many good options; she just hoped that he really would be okay.
And since her husband really was extraordinary, perhaps he really could handle the Wu Family's matter.
"By the way, honey, are you going out today?"
Su Chen asked, as Lin Ruoxue often didn't get a day off even on weekends.
"No need, I only have a little bit of work today, I can spend some time dealing with it at home."
"Alright, I'll stay home with you today!"
"Are you feeling guilty because of what happened yesterday?"
Lin Ruoxue gave Su Chen a scrutinizing look, feeling a bit puzzled, as it was rare for him to stay calmly at home.
"Wife, there you go overthinking again. How come good intentions never get good rewards?"
Su Chen said, spreading his hands in frustration.
Following that, Su Chen genuinely spent the day at home with Lin Ruoxue, and of course, taking some small advantages here and there was inevitable.
Although Lin Ruoxue was often annoyed by him, overall, she felt very happy and warm!
In the subsequent days, their life was uneventful yet filled with the joys of ordinary life.
Strangely, whether it was the Wu Family, the Liu Family, or the Lv Family, all were unusually quiet with no movements at all.
They were silent, and Su Chen didn't bother with them, considering them nothing but clowns in his eyes.
Time flew like a fleeting horse, and ten days passed quickly.
One evening at dinner, Lin Ruoxue suddenly asked:
"Honey, isn't your department going on a vacation tomorrow?"
"Yeah, they can hardly wait. Everyone speaks highly of you!"
Su Chen said with a smile, secretly looking forward to seeing the charming figures of the beauties from the public relations department in swimsuits!
"Wife, why don't you join us? It'll be a good chance to relax."
The person he most wanted to see in a swimsuit was ultimately his wife. Imagining Lin Ruoxue in a swimsuit, Su Chen felt a wave of excitement rush through him!
"There's so much going on at the company, and we just partnered with the Sloley Group. How could I leave?"
Lin Ruoxue sighed:
"And soon, we have to set up a branch in Yandu. There are endless responsibilities!"
"Wait, the company is opening a branch in Yandu?"
Su Chen asked, somewhat surprised.
"Yes, to venture into the international market, we still need to use Yandu as a springboard, since Jianghai's outlook is ultimately too limited."
Lin Ruoxue said ambitiously, as if a vast blueprint awaited her depiction.
"Oh."
Su Chen nodded slightly, not having any objections to this.
In this matter, he fully respected Lin Ruoxue's decisions; she could do as she liked.
"By the way, where are you guys going on vacation?"
Lin Ruoxue asked nonchalantly as she picked up some greens.
Lin Ruoxue asked casually, but Su Chen's heart skipped a beat.
"I think it's Sanya, but I'm not quite sure."
Su Chen said cautiously, while gauging Lin Ruoxue's expression, afraid that she might see through his little scheme, knowing his fondness for swimsuits.
And the mere mention of Sanya naturally conjured images of the beach and bathing suits...
Fortunately, Lin Ruoxue was distracted by other thoughts, not focused on this, and after hearing it, she just nodded and did not inquire further.
Seeing her usual demeanor, Su Chen's hanging heart finally settled down slowly.
But before he could completely relax, Lin Ruoxue spoke up again:
"Behave yourself around those women, and don't attract unnecessary attention!"
Lin Ruoxue said this almost like a parent advising a child to "study hard," more out of habit than anything particularly serious.
However, Su Chen was so scared that he nodded repeatedly:
"Dear wife, I promise to behave and keep proper conduct!"
"That's good!"
Lin Ruoxue saw his earnest attitude and nodded.
Little did she know, once he really got there, what would actually happen was beyond her control and likely beyond Su Chen's control as well...
What do you think?
