Beautiful CEO's Super Expert

After returning to his room, Su Chen first took off his coat, then carefully peeled off the shirt underneath.

Many areas of the shirt were stuck to his flesh and blood, so he had to move slowly, even so, the pain still made him grimace.

It took him about five or six minutes to remove the shirt, and when he looked at it, he discovered at least five or six bright patches of bloodstains.

Seeing these bloodstains, Su Chen couldn't help but remember the situation that day; he was lucky it was him, had it been anyone else, they might not have even known what they had been blasted into.

That was a condensed bomb!

Its power was who knows how many times greater than that of ordinary bombs!

Although Su Chen had reacted, his actions were inevitably slow because he had to save Doctor Gaia.

Of course, if he had been alone, he wouldn't have escaped unscathed either, but he certainly would have fared better and not been so severely injured.

At that time, because he was too close to the center of the explosion, Su Chen had been knocked unconscious all at once, even though he had instantly unleashed a substantial amount of True Yuan to protect his body.

Otherwise, just with the power of that condensed bomb, neither Su Chen nor Doctor Gaia would have survived.

Fortunately, two Shadow Guards were nearby and promptly saved both him and Doctor Gaia.

Su Chen had not expected that after dealing with so many experts, he would capsize in a gutter.

This was, on one hand, due to his carelessness, and on the other because he truly did not expect the enemy to plant a bomb on the escape boat, and a condensed one at that!

Subsequently, Su Chen was unconscious for nearly 30 hours before he finally came to, and the first thing he did was contact the ship king to arrange his return.

Su Chen didn't know why, but he suddenly wanted to return to Jianghai, to that villa; this feeling was very strong—stronger than he had ever felt before!

The reason he contacted the ship king was, naturally, for secrecy.

The ship king was still dealing with matters in Africa and couldn't come in person, but still agreed to all of Su Chen's requests.

Actually, Su Chen had already been cultivating on the ship for two days, recovering from many of his injuries. If Lin Ruoxue had seen his initial state, she probably would have been scared stiff!

Because that situation was really too frightening!

This incident made Su Chen hate the force behind Tang Gang even more, and he vowed to thoroughly eradicate it!

To be honest, although Su Chen was very wary of the power behind Tang Gang, to say he was afraid would be an exaggeration.

The reason was that he was now cultivating the Nine Yang Divine Technique, a heaven-defying cultivation technique whose speed and power far exceeded other cultivation techniques in the world.

This was fully demonstrated in the recent rescue of Gaia, where at the mere realm of Qi Refinement Level Six, he was able to slay a Golden Knight at the Qi Refinement Peak.

While this was partly because he had reached a higher realm before and had deeper control over True Yuan, it was undeniable that the critical factor was the overwhelming power of the Nine Yang Divine Technique!

So, what when he cultivated to a higher realm? Like the Qi Refinement Peak, or half-step Meridian Expansion, or even higher realms, what would he have to fear then?

Su Chen believed that with enough time, he could definitely eliminate that mysterious power!

Time, now for him, was the most crucial factor!

....

"Su Chen, are you alright?"

Lin Ruoxue, seeing that Su Chen had been in his room for a long while, couldn't help but call out from outside.

"Missed me already after such a short while?"

Su Chen opened the door with a mischievous smile and said,

"Wife, why didn't you call me husband? I haven't had enough of that yet!"

Upon hearing what Su Chen said, Lin Ruoxue's face turned crimson.

The truth was, those first couple of times she had called him that instinctively, and now that she had calmed down a bit, she found it a bit mushy and difficult to say.

"Can you give me a little more time, please?"

Lin Ruoxue said softly.

"Alright, no matter what you call me, you're still my wife!"

"Mmm!"

"Son-in-law, dinner is ready. Come and eat."

"Thank you, Wang Ma!"

"Wang Ma, serve me a bowl too, I'm hungry as well," Lin Ruoxue called out with a smile.

"Alright."

"Son-in-law, you're finally back."

After Wang Ma brought the dishes back to the table, she sat down with a smile:

"You have no idea, while you were gone, Miss was so distraught that she lost her appetite. Look at how thin she's become."

Su Chen quickly took a closer look and noticed that Lin Ruoxue had indeed lost a considerable amount of weight and seemed to be in poor spirits. In the excitement of his return, Su Chen hadn't paid much attention.

"Wife, why don't you take better care of yourself?"

Su Chen said with a serious expression as he admonished her.

"Not at all,"

Even though Su Chen was scolding her, Lin Ruoxue felt sweet inside:

"Don't listen to Wang Ma's nonsense."

"Haven't you? Don't you look at yourself in the mirror these days?"

Su Chen's gaze moved down Lin Ruoxue's face:

"Everything seems to have shrunk a bit there!"

Seeing his lecherous gaze, Lin Ruoxue immediately knew what he was referring to and blushed with anger:

"Where are you looking?"

If it were just the two of them, it wouldn't have mattered if he looked, but Wang Ma was still around!

Wang Ma, with her advanced age, had seen it all and had long become an insightful person.

"Ah, I can't stay up as I used to. I'm going to sleep now. Son-in-law, Miss, you should rest early too!"

Wang Ma deliberately stretched lazily and yawned as she spoke.

Lin Ruoxue understood that Wang Ma was excusing herself, which made her feel even more embarrassed.

"It's all your fault!"

"What's wrong with it? Wang Ma is not an outsider,"

Su Chen seemed to be carefree, speaking his mind.

"Here, have another drumstick!"

Su Chen put the biggest chicken leg into Lin Ruoxue's bowl.

Lin Ruoxue couldn't help but recall the "Good girl and the drumstick" story that had spread throughout the company, which made her hesitant to leave her office for a while.

But seeing Su Chen's worried expression, Lin Ruoxue took small bites of the chicken leg.

Although it was just a simple dinner, Su Chen felt very satisfied!

He couldn't help but think to himself how nice it was to be home!

If possible, he truly wished he could live an ordinary life, simply and quietly with Lin Ruoxue.

But Su Chen knew this was nothing more than a luxury for him...

After dinner, the two of them sat on the sofa and chatted for a while. Of course, Su Chen was somewhat mischievous during the conversation, not just with his eyes but also with his hands, often touching places he shouldn't.

Lin Ruoxue felt helpless about this and could only pretend not to notice.

Time passed, and around 11 p.m., Su Chen glanced at the clock. It was about time for him to start his cultivation, as it would take another two or three days for his injuries to heal properly.

"Alright, I'm going to rest now. You should go to sleep early too, don't overwork yourself,"

Su Chen stood up, ready to return to his own room.

"How about, you come to my room tonight?"

Lin Ruoxue mumbled shyly, her voice very weak. After she spoke, her face was covered with a blush...
