My Ares Son-in-Law

"Brother Xiao..." Yun Yuyan murmured to herself, her voice as soft as a whisper in the night breeze.

A complex emotion surged in her heart, including gratitude, admiration, and a hint of indescribable affection.

She knew that this incident had dragged Xiao Chen into the dispute between the Yun and Yin families, but she didn't know how to protect him.

There were few pedestrians on the street outside the sports car, and occasionally a few cars whizzed past, breaking the silence of the night.

Yun Yuyan sat in the car without starting the engine for a long time. She was immersed in her own thoughts, as if she was isolated from the whole world.

It wasn't until a cool breeze blew by that she came to her senses, sighed softly, and started the sports car.

The wheel turns slowly, heading towards the unknown yet challenging future, but in her heart, she is always concerned about the figure that makes her heart beat.

At noon the next day.

The scorching sun hangs high in the sky, dyeing the whole world in golden hues.

The scorching sunlight seemed like a burning flame, mercilessly penetrating the lush and intertwined trumpet creepers in Xiao Chen's luxurious villa.

Strings and clusters of trumpet creepers bloom wantonly under the scorching sun, like burning flames or gorgeous clouds in the sky. However, at this moment, they have become a "barrier" that prevents sunlight from penetrating freely.

The sunlight that penetrated the flower stand was like thousands of extremely sharp golden arrows, with unstoppable momentum, shooting straight towards the quaint and heavy stone bench in the villa courtyard.

The sunlight danced and flickered on the surface of the stone bench, scattering bits of gold, as if it was a precious gift from heaven, or a brilliant mark left by time.

Under the flower stand, Xiao Chen, wearing a simple yet elegant white casual outfit, leaned lazily on the back of a chair.

His body leaned back slightly, his hands casually placed on the armrests of the chair, his legs crossed, and his posture seemed casual and unfocused, as if all the troubles in the world had nothing to do with him.

However, the sharp eyes that inadvertently revealed and the powerful aura that emanated from his body were like a sword drawn from its sheath. Even in his laziness, it was difficult to conceal his sharp temperament, as if he was ready to meet any challenge at any time.

On an ebony plate next to Xiao Chen, neatly stacked square pieces of watermelon of uniform size were placed.

The bright red flesh is as bright and eye-catching as the burning sunset in the sky, or as delicate and tempting as the blush on a girl's cheeks.

Each piece of watermelon is covered with crystal clear water droplets, which sparkle with charming luster in the sun like ice crystals, as if they are gems carefully carved by nature.

Under the scorching sun, these water droplets reflect an alluring light, making people salivate at the sight.

Not far away, Sophie, wearing a thin light blue dress, looked like a blue iris swaying in the breeze, and was lazily lying on another rattan chair with her legs crossed.

Her long hair was casually draped over her shoulders like black silk, and a few strands of hair fluttered gently in the breeze, adding a bit of charm and agility. Her jade-white fingers were slender and long, like tender buds just sprouted in spring. At this moment, she was holding a bamboo stick, poking a crescent-shaped melon elegantly and calmly.

Her eyes were smiling, and that smile was like a flower blooming in spring, brilliant and charming. There was a hint of teasing and mocking in her eyes, and she whispered, "What are you daydreaming about? Which girl has seduced you? You look so lost, are you hiding some little secret in your heart?"

Before she finished her words, Xiao Chen tapped her smooth forehead.

Although the force of the finger snap was not strong, it carried a hint of intimacy and anger.

Xiao Chen sat up straight abruptly, his lazy expression suddenly turned serious. His dark eyes were like the deep night sky, revealing seriousness and concentration. He stared at Sophie closely and said word by word: "Miss Su, do you know the ancient city? I want to hear your opinion of this ancient city."

Sophie smiled slightly, and that smile was like a spring breeze, warm and charming.

She gently put down the bamboo stick in her hand, leaned elegantly on the back of the rattan chair, and said slowly: "Of course, when I came here to do business, I must have investigated the situation here in advance.

This ancient city is like a mysterious and complex maze. On the surface, it is a city that never sleeps with bright neon lights and heavy traffic. There are tall buildings everywhere, busy streets with cars and people, and the atmosphere of prosperity and bustle is everywhere.

However, behind this prosperity, there are countless secrets and dangers hidden, it is a Shura field with turbulent undercurrents and treacherous situations. "

As she spoke, she gently picked up a piece of watermelon and put it in her mouth. The sweet and sour juice instantly exploded between her teeth, and the refreshing taste made her squint her eyes.

She deliberately dragged out the last word, a sly light flashed in her eyes, like a little fox spying in the dark, and continued: "Oh, you know how to prepare for a rainy day? The martial arts world in this ancient city is even more complicated, like a huge and invisible net that tightly entangles all forces together.

The six families and eight surnames are like fourteen towering peaks, firmly entrenched on this land. Each of them has a profound foundation and powerful strength, and they both check and balance each other and compete secretly.

You help the Yun family..." She paused, her eyes suddenly became as sharp as an eagle, and her body exuded a fierce momentum, like a cheetah about to attack, "Although it is not the highest one, there are not many people who dare to touch the Yun family! The Yun family also has its own place in the martial arts world of this ancient city. Their family has a long history and has inherited unique martial arts and skills. It is not so easy to be bullied."

Xiao Chen was originally leaning forward slightly, with his hands on the stone table, his eyes revealing a strong desire for details about the ancient city's martial arts world. He was just about to ask Sophie more details about the entanglements between the six sects and eight surnames, the secret rules of the martial arts world, and the potential opponents of the Yun family.

The black mobile phone on the stone table suddenly seemed to be injected with crazy energy and began to vibrate violently.

The mobile phone screen flashed a dazzling light under the sunlight, and an unfamiliar number kept jumping on the screen like a ghost, as if it was a call from an unknown dark world.

Xiao Chen's pupils shrank instantly, like the stars that suddenly shrank in the night sky. His back subconsciously tensed up at this moment, like a bow with a fully drawn string. A sense of alertness surged into his heart like a surging tide, making his nerves instantly tense to the extreme.

He was not afraid, but he was worried that someone would attack the people around him in order to deal with him. After all, this kind of thing had happened before.

He slowly stretched out his hand, his fingers trembling slightly, and lightly pressed the answer button.

The moment the call was connected, Yang Xiong's sinister voice, as if coming from the depths of hell, came from the other end of the line. (End of this chapter)
