My Ares Son-in-Law

Xiao Chen's words instantly brought back Jiang Yixiu's memories. The stakes of that live CS match were still vivid in her mind.

At that time, what was gambled was not ordinary money, but precious and rare elixirs. Thinking of this, a flash of enlightenment flashed in Jiang Yixue's eyes, and she seemed to understand Xiao Chen's deep meaning.

After hearing Xiao Chen's answer, Jin Lanlan could no longer hold back and burst into sharp, piercing laughter. That laughter was like a pair of sharp blades, full of mockery and ridicule.

She laughed and covered her mouth with her hands exaggeratedly, as if she had seen the most ridiculous thing in the world: "Why, you can't even take out a mere one or two million? Yes, look at your simple clothes, you don't look like a rich person at all. But Jiang Yixiu is rich, why don't you let her pay for you."

Her eyes were like a cold scalpel, sizing up Xiao Chen from head to toe. Her superior and overbearing attitude seemed to be saying that Xiao Chen was not worthy of standing under the same sky with her.

Then, she turned her attention to Jiang Yixue, put on a hypocritical look of regret, and said:

"Jiang Yixiu, Jiang Yixiu, your taste is really shameful. You actually fell for such a worthless poor boy. You are almost bringing shame to our big families. If you want to find someone, you have to find a young man like Brother Yulang who has a prominent family background and is as rich as a country. Look at Jiao Yulang, how is he not a hundred times better than this boy?"

As she spoke, she deliberately held Jiao Yulang's arm tightly, leaning her body slightly towards him, with a smug smile on her face, as if showing off to Jiang Yixiu the "high-quality resources" she possessed.

Jiang Yixue looked at Jin Lanlan quietly, without any sign of anger on her face, but a trace of imperceptible excitement surged in her heart. Because Jin Lanlan mistook her for Xiao Chen's girlfriend, this misunderstanding made her feel a little hopeful in her heart.

If she could really become Xiao Chen's other half, how lucky she would be. Unfortunately, she knew in her heart that this was just her wishful thinking. She bit her lower lip lightly, hiding this thought deep in her heart, and her face remained calm.

"I really don't have much money. After all, I'm just an ordinary doctor in a clinic." Xiao Chen raised a meaningful smile and said slowly. His tone was as calm as the spring breeze, without the slightest embarrassment or panic, as if Jin Lanlan's ridicule was nothing more than an insignificant buzzing in his ears.

When Jin Lanlan heard Jiang Yixiu's words, her eyes suddenly widened like bells, full of disbelief, as if the facts before her completely overturned her cognition.

Her mouth was exaggeratedly wide open, and she couldn't close it for a long time. The shock on her face had reached its peak, and then she burst into a sharp cry: "Oh my God, the Jiang family is now one of the eight great powers in Haidong, firmly occupying a leading position in the entire power structure, with strong financial resources and extensive connections. Everyone knows it.

You are the daughter of the Jiang family, and you are always held in high esteem by everyone. You have met all kinds of outstanding young men, but you are so poor that you choose such a man as your boyfriend? This is simply a fantasy. I can't imagine it, I can't imagine it!"

As she spoke, she shook her head like a rattle, her eyes full of ridicule and contempt, as if Jiang Yixue had done something absurd and unforgivable, and this behavior had become a laughing stock in her eyes. Jiang Yixue listened to Jin Lanlan's words quietly, with a faint smile on her face, which hid her unique stubbornness and determination, as if all the doubts and ridicules from the outside world could not shake her in the slightest.

She raised her chin slightly, her eyes revealing a fearless pride, and responded slowly but firmly: "I just like him, what can you do to me? Even if Brother Xiao Chen looks like an ordinary poor boy, so what? I have enough ability to support him, as long as I am willing, these are not a problem."

Her tone was firm, and every word seemed to be declaring to Jin Lanlan: No one else has the right to interfere in her emotional world, and she will stand firmly by the person she chooses, even if the whole world opposes it.

Xiao Chen stood quietly by the side, taking it all in. Seeing Jiang Yixue confronting Jin Lanlan in order to protect herself, he couldn't help but smile bitterly. He knew very well that Jiang Yixue was extremely competitive. She had been secretly competing with Zhao Chunhua before, and now she was fighting with Jin Lanlan again.

However, Jin Lanlan was really too much. Her words were full of sharp provocations and insults, challenging his bottom line. It seemed that he had to make this woman lose face and teach her a lesson, so that she would know what it meant to be someone better than you.

Thinking of this, Xiao Chen frowned slightly and fell into a brief contemplation.

After a moment, he raised his head, a look of determination flashed in his eyes, and he said, "The one or two million you mentioned is really not attractive to me, and I don't care about it. If we want to gamble, let's do something substantial, gamble spirit stones. I don't want much, just 100,000 low-grade spirit stones, how about it?"

His voice was steady and powerful, revealing an unquestionable firmness, as if a hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones were just a small amount in his eyes and not worth mentioning.

When Jin Lanlan heard Xiao Chen's words, she was stunned for a moment, and the expression on her face froze for a moment, as if her brain had not reacted for a while.

Then, she suddenly widened her eyes and burst into a harsh, mocking sneer: "What nonsense are you talking about? One hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones? Who do you think you are? Can you afford it? Do you think you can scare me with just a few words? Do you think spirit stones are stones that can be found everywhere on the street and you can just bend down and pick up a handful?"

As she spoke, she pointed at Xiao Chen. That finger was like a sharp dagger, waving wildly in the air with full of disdain and contempt, as if mocking Xiao Chen's ignorance and arrogance.

Xiao Chen looked calm, as if he had not heard Jin Lanlan's ridicule. He reached into his arms calmly, his movements smooth and natural, as if he was doing something very ordinary. Then, he slowly took out a spirit stone card and shook it gently. The card flickered faintly in the sun.

His eyes were as calm as water, and he said calmly: "There are not many spirit stones in this card, about 200,000. I will use 100,000 of them to bet on this game. Of course, if you think it is not enough, we can bet 200,000. Anyway, I still have some low-grade spirit stones, but I don’t know if Miss Jin and Mr. Jiao have so many spirit stones!"
