My Ares Son-in-Law

Xiao Chen's deep voice carried an unquestionable certainty, as if everything he said was the unquestionable truth.

Yun Yuyan raised her eyebrows and smiled softly. Her smile was like a flower in spring, bright and charming.

Years of experience in the workplace have made her accustomed to using jokes to resolve such deliberate approaches.

In her opinion, Xiao Chen's words were just to attract her attention.

She stretched her long beautiful legs forward and deliberately teased: "Then feel it and see if there is room for improvement?"

There was a hint of provocation and teasing in her tone, but there was a hint of curiosity in her eyes.

A bony hand came over without warning.

Xiao Chen's movements were quick and natural, as if all this was taken for granted.

The temperature of his palm was like a small flame, instantly igniting her nerves.

The temperature penetrated her skin and reached her heart, making her heart beat faster involuntarily.

Yun Yuyan slammed on the brakes, and the blue light from the dashboard made her cheeks blush.

She stared at Xiao Chen with eyes wide open in disbelief, and said in a trembling voice: "You are so rude!"

She felt both angry and shy. She was angry at Xiao Chen's bold behavior and shy about her body's reaction.

Xiao Chen said seriously, his eyes focused and serious, without any joking: "Why are you being polite? I am just a doctor treating a patient. In the eyes of a doctor, there are only patients, not men or women, and there is no need to pay attention to those empty politeness."

His words were powerful, as if he was declaring his position to Yun Yuyan.

"Believe me, you big-headed devil!"

Yun Yuyan glared at Xiao Chen fiercely, her eyes full of anger and disdain.

She felt that Xiao Chen's words were just sophistry, and her dissatisfaction with him increased.

She suddenly stepped on the accelerator and the car rushed out like an arrow, as if she wanted to vent all the anger in her heart in this moment of acceleration.

The car turned into the tree-lined avenue of the Ancient City Hotel. The sycamore trees on both sides of the road were tall and dense, with branches and leaves intertwined, forming a natural green barrier.

The shadow of the sycamore tree swayed on the windshield, just like her chaotic thoughts at the moment.

The shadows of the trees were sometimes clear and sometimes blurry, just like her feelings towards Xiao Chen, somewhat unpredictable, yet faintly filled with a hint of curiosity.

"I'm going to meet some guests. Do you want to come with me?"

Yun Yuyan turned her head and looked at Xiao Chen and asked.

There was a hint of hesitation and tentativeness in her eyes, and she didn't know how Xiao Chen would respond.

Xiao Chen nodded without hesitation, his expression firm and decisive.

Sophie was not in the ancient city at the moment, so he didn't have to worry about whether to go looking for Sophie.

In his heart, it is more important to ensure Yun Yuyan's safety first.

This woman has a black spot on her forehead, which means something is likely to happen. He can't just watch her fall into danger.

"Then come on."

Yun Yuyan did not refuse. She raised her chin slightly and a barely perceptible smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

With Xiao Chen by her side, she actually felt more confident.

Although she expressed many dissatisfactions with Xiao Chen, subconsciously, she still felt that Xiao Chen could give her a sense of security.

The crystal chandeliers in the hotel lobby are dazzling, like the twinkling stars in the night sky. The lights sprinkled on the marble floor, reflecting the dazzling light, making the entire lobby look like a dream palace.

Yun Yuyan straightened her back, her black fishtail skirt tightly wrapped around her graceful figure, swaying gently with her steps, like a nimble black fish swimming in the water.

The ten-centimeter high heels tapped the ground, making a confident and crisp sound, and every step seemed to tell of her pride and composure.

But when the carved door of the Emperor's Banquet Hall slowly opened and dozens of burning gazes swept over, Yun Yuyan couldn't help but frown.

Those looks were filled with scrutiny, curiosity, and even a hint of ill intent, which made her feel uncomfortable.

She subconsciously quickened her pace, wanting to get rid of these annoying gazes as quickly as possible.

"Ms. Yun's figure is more than enough for her to walk in the Victoria's Secret fashion show."

The CEO of Dafei Group came over with a bottle of champagne in his hand, walking with a staggering but deliberately elegant step.

He was wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and his eyes behind the lenses looked back and forth at Yun Yuyan. It seemed as if his eyes were hooked, as if he wanted to see through every inch of Yun Yuyan's skin.

"I heard that Miss Yun's analysis of market trends is very insightful. I must ask her for advice in person someday."

There was a hint of flattery in his voice and a hypocritical smile on his lips. The champagne in his hand swayed slightly with his movements, splashing a few drops of wine.

"Miss Yun, if you would do me the honor, my newly brewed red wine needs an expert like you to taste it."

The manager of the Ancient City Hotel walked with a steady yet flattering pace, and respectfully handed over a glass of red wine with both hands.

The red wine sparkled with charming luster under the light, like a deep ruby. The wine swayed slightly, exuding a mellow aroma.

The manager's jade cufflinks glowed coldly under the light, and that cold light seemed to carry a hint of calculation, which made people feel alert.

Yun Yuyan maintained a professional smile, which was just right, neither appearing too enthusiastic nor too cold or distant.

The corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and her eyes were bright and lively, as if containing endless wisdom.

However, out of the corner of his eye he keenly caught a glimpse of Xiao Chen standing in the corner.

Xiao Chen stood tall and straight, like a dormant cheetah, his muscles tense, his eyes scanning the entire audience vigilantly.

His eyes were like sharp arrows, not missing any corner or any suspicious movement, as if as long as there was any movement, he would rush out like an arrow from a bow to protect Yun Yuyan's safety.

After three rounds of drinks, an ambiguous atmosphere filled the banquet hall.

Soft music flows in the air, the melody is sometimes soothing and sometimes passionate, as if stirring people's heartstrings.

The lights became soft and hazy, shrouding the entire banquet hall in a dreamy atmosphere.

The men toasted Yun Yuyan in various ways. Some of them had big smiles on their faces and spoke sincerely; some pretended to be cool and elegant.

Yun Yuyan held the wine glass skillfully. Her fingers were long and white, and she held the glass gently, controlling the amount she drank precisely every time she raised the glass.

Her movements were graceful and calm, as if the wine table was her battlefield and she was the general in control of the overall situation.

Xiao Chen wanted to get up and help several times. He saw Yun Yuyan drinking one glass after another, and his heart was full of worry.

He frowned, a hint of anxiety revealed in his eyes, and his hands unconsciously clenched into fists.

However, every time she was stopped by Yun Yuyan with her eyes.

Yun Yuyan's eyes were firm and contained a hint of unquestionableness, as if telling him that she could handle it all.

Xiao Chen had no choice but to sit down again, but his eyes never left Yun Yuyan, always ready to step forward when she needed him. (End of this chapter)
