My Ares Son-in-Law

Xiao Chen's thoughts drifted to the Yin family in the ancient city, the family with a prominent reputation in the ancient city.

He knew that Yin Yun would not give up this time when he returned, and the Yin family would most likely make a comeback.

But Xiao Chen was not afraid. His eyes revealed a firmness and confidence, as if no matter how many difficulties and obstacles lay ahead, he could face them calmly.

The family that Yin Zhong belongs to, the powerful person in the Heavenly Realm who is in charge... These words kept circling in his mind, like a string of complex and difficult to decipher combination locks.

He stroked the wall of the cup, and the cold touch made him more sober: If he didn't want to implicate the Yun family, Yin Yun would probably have gone to see the King of Hell by now.

After dinner, the hustle and bustle of the city gradually faded away, leaving only peace and tranquility.

Xiao Chen and Sophie walked side by side on the avenue lined with sycamore trees.

The moonlight is like water, passing through layers of branches and leaves, casting mottled silver shadows on the ground, as if covering the earth with a layer of dreamy silver.

Occasionally, someone passes by on a shared bicycle, and the sound of the bells is crisp and pleasant, like notes floating in the night sky, adding a bit of vitality to this quiet night.

"You can be considered as a 'hero saving the beauty' this time." Sophie said half-jokingly, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a playful smile, and her eyes sparkled with a smart light.

But when she caught a glimpse of the sadness between Xiao Chen's brows, her tone softened unconsciously, like a gentle spring breeze: "Are you still thinking about the Yin family?"

She turned slightly and looked at Xiao Chen with concern, her eyes full of worry.

Xiao Chen did not answer immediately. He slowly stopped, raised his head slightly, and looked at the night sky above his head that was cut into pieces by branches and leaves.

After a moment, he reached out and caught a falling leaf.

The leaf fell lightly into his palm, like a green butterfly.

He held it between his fingers and turned it gently. The leaf slowly spun around his fingertips, as if telling a silent story.

"I always feel that this matter is not that simple. The Yin family has deep roots in the ancient city, like a towering tree with luxuriant branches and leaves and tangled roots. They will not give up easily."

His voice was soft, but it was filled with unquestionable certainty, as if he had already seen the Yin family's impending counterattack.

There was a hint of solemnity in his eyes, as if he was thinking about how to respond.

At the same time, on the other side of the city, neon lights were flashing and traffic was bustling.

Yun Yuyan sat in a luxurious sports car. The faint scent of perfume filled the air, but it could not dispel the tension and uneasiness in her heart.

She held the phone tightly, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on her palms, which flickered faintly under the light.

The moment the phone was connected, the scene from the daytime flashed before her eyes again: Yin Yun's distorted expression when he was beaten black and blue, his expression was as ferocious as a devil, as if he wanted to eat Xiao Chen alive; and Xiao Chen standing in front of her, like a solid wall that isolated all dangers. His back was tall and straight, bringing her endless sense of security.

"Dad, this time it's really all thanks to Brother Xiao..." Yun Yuyan's voice trembled slightly. In that trembling voice, there was both relief at surviving the disaster and gratitude towards Xiao Chen.

She took a deep breath, tried to calm herself down, and told him the whole story in detail.

From Yin Yun's provocation to Xiao Chen's help, every detail was described clearly.

When she talked about how Xiao Chen was not afraid of the Yin family's threats and even taught Yin Yun a lesson, her tone was unconsciously filled with pride, as if Xiao Chen's bravery was her glory. "Dad, the Yin family won't just let it go. What should we do?" Yun Yuyan asked anxiously, her eyes full of worry and confusion, like a deer lost in the forest, not knowing where to go.

Her father's steady voice on the other end of the phone gradually calmed her down, but she was still worried about Xiao Chen's safety and couldn't calm down for a long time.

In another corner of the city, the Yun family’s luxurious villa standing halfway up the mountain was brightly lit, like a castle emitting a mysterious glow in the night.

In the study room of the villa, Yun Jingtian sat behind the quaint mahogany desk, his posture as straight as a pine tree. The years had carved deep lines on his face, but also endowed him with an aura of majesty without even being angry.

He held the phone tightly in his hand, looking through the floor-to-ceiling windows at the bustling city shrouded in the night, but his thoughts drifted far away.

On the other end of the phone, Yun Yuyan's anxious and worried voice continued to come, describing in detail the conflict that occurred in the night market during the day.

When Yun Jingtian heard that Xiao Chen was not afraid of the Yin family and even taught Yin Yun a lesson, he was silent for a long time on the other end of the phone. The air in the study seemed to be frozen, and only the ticking sound of the wall clock was particularly clear in the silence.

Finally, he let out a deep laugh, which seemed to come from a deep valley, with some complicated emotions: "As expected of Mr. Jiang's husband, his style of doing things is even more ruthless than Mr. Jiang's."

Yun Jingtian narrowed his eyes slightly, and the image of General Manager Jiang emerged in his mind - the image of the strong woman who was powerful and decisive in the business world.

Xiao Chen's action this time made him feel both surprised and slightly appreciative.

In this world where the strong prey on the weak, sometimes such decisive and ruthless measures are needed to deter those with evil intentions.

Then, his tone became serious, like a dignified elder admonishing a younger generation: "I will handle this matter, but you have to tell Mr. Xiao not to be impulsive in the future. The Yin family is more treacherous than he thinks."

Yun Jingtian knew very well that the Yin family’s influence in the ancient city was intertwined and complex, like a huge spider web, where a single move could affect the entire body.

Not only is there a powerful person in the realm of heaven and man behind the Yin family, but it also has complicated relationships with various forces. If you are not careful, you may fall into an irretrievable situation.

He hoped that Xiao Chen could understand that in this complex game, impulse would often lead to irreversible consequences.

After hanging up the phone, Yun Jingtian slowly stood up and walked to the window.

Outside the window, the night breeze blew gently, ruffling the curtains and bringing a hint of coolness.

He looked at the vast night sky with twinkling stars, but they could not dispel the worries in his heart.

He had expected that the Yin family would not give up.

He must come up with a countermeasure as soon as possible to protect the Yun family while not putting Xiao Chen in danger.

On the other side of the city, Yun Yuyan was sitting in a sports car, still holding the phone that had been hung up tightly in her hand.

She looked up at the night sky, someone's shadow reflected in her eyes.

The shadow was tall and straight, as if it provided her with a safe space in the darkness.

The scene of Xiao Chen standing in front of her at the night market appeared in her mind again and again. His eyes were firm and confident, as if he could handle it calmly no matter how big the difficulties were. (End of this chapter)
