My Ares Son-in-Law

More importantly, when Xiao Chen was still the God of War of the Dragon Kingdom, Chen Ziyan pursued him in an extremely blatant manner, even confessing her feelings to him in public, which caused quite a stir.

However, Xiao Chen had no feelings for her and rejected her in public, which made Chen Ziyan feel humiliated. From then on, she harbored a deep grudge against Xiao Chen, and the two became enemies because of this.

Later, with the change in Xiao Chen's identity and the occurrence of various events, they lost contact with each other.

I never expected to run into you here today.

Chen Ziyan's red-soled shoes with stiletto heels that were at least ten centimeters high shimmered with a bright and dazzling luster under the lights. With each step she took, the heels collided with the ground, making a crisp "tap-tap" sound, which seemed to be the drumbeat of her arrogant arrogance.

She strode aggressively to Xiao Chen's car window, her tall and slender figure looking down at Xiao Chen sitting inside.

Her gaze was cold and contemptuous, as if Xiao Chen were some disgusting piece of trash, and that even looking at him would taint her eyes.

She began to look Xiao Chen up and down, her gaze like a sharp blade, mercilessly sweeping over him.

Xiao Chen's half-new, half-old cloth clothes were a bit faded in color and the fabric was somewhat rough. In Chen Ziyan's eyes, this was simply a symbol of poverty and destitution.

And his worn-out, tattered cloth shoes, covered in wrinkles and signs of wear, contrasted sharply with her exquisite, expensive red-soled shoes.

Seeing this, Chen Ziyan's lips curled into an extremely sarcastic sneer, a smile full of mockery and disdain.

"Ha, really it's you? Xiao Chen?"

Chen Ziyan's voice suddenly rose, sharp as a blade slicing through the night sky, filled with undisguised sarcasm.

She deliberately dragged out her words, each one like a sharp blade piercing straight at Xiao Chen, "Who do you think is so clueless as to park this beat-up car here blocking the way!"

"This beat-up car is probably worth less than one of my handbags!"

She slightly raised her chin, her eyes filled with provocation, and continued, "What? Weren't you very arrogant when you rejected me back then?"

"Saying things like 'my ambitions lie elsewhere' sounds like I'm some kind of sophisticated or extraordinary person."

"Oh, I see, it's because 'Aspiring to the Frontier' went to eat sand?"

"Having stayed in that godforsaken place for so long, were you covered in dust and dirt from the wind and sand every day?"

"Now that they can't make it here anymore, they've slunk back to the old city?"

"Tsk, look at your shabby appearance!"

As she spoke, she shook her head dramatically, her face full of disgust.

She paused, her gaze becoming even more venomous, licking Xiao Chen's face like a viper's tongue, with a vengeful pleasure.

She deliberately slowed her speech, emphasizing each word: "I heard you work as a waitress at that... shabby club?"

"This is hilarious! The once invincible War God of the Dragon Kingdom? Is this all?"

"You used to be a hero who commanded respect on the battlefield, but now you've been reduced to working as a lowly waiter. The contrast is just too great!"

"Yun Yuyan's family has fallen from grace. You wouldn't be thinking of using her as a crutch to make a comeback, would you?"

"Hmph, she can barely take care of herself, she's like a wrecked ship about to sink in a storm, and you still think you can rely on her?" "Give up that idea!"

"She might be hiding from her debts right now and can't possibly care about you!"

She got more and more excited as she spoke, her eyes sparkling with excitement, as if she had found someone to vent to: "And that Zhou Keying, her company has been taken back, she's just a stray dog ​​now!"

Without the protection of her family, she was nothing and could only wander around aimlessly like a headless fly.

"Oh right, I think I just saw her go in?"

"What, now it's your turn to be her driver?"

"You two are a perfect match, you two stray dogs!"

"One was once glorious but is now down on his luck, the other was once pampered but now has nothing. If you two are together, you can comfort each other and struggle together in this miserable life!"

After saying that, she burst into triumphant laughter, which echoed in the silent air and sounded particularly jarring.

Xiao Chen sat in the car, still expressionless, as if Chen Ziyan's sharp and barrage of insults were nothing more than a summer breeze that occasionally brushed past his ear, unable to stir any ripples in his heart.

He didn't even lift his eyelids; his calm expression made it seem as if everything around him was irrelevant.

He slowly and deliberately took out another cigarette from the cigarette case, his movements elegant and composed.

He put the cigarette in his mouth, skillfully pressed the lighter, and with a soft "click," a pale blue flame shot up, igniting the cigarette.

He took a deep drag, the aroma of tobacco instantly filling his mouth, and then slowly exhaled the smoke toward Chen Ziyan.

The white smoke, like a soft veil, drifted gracefully toward Chen Ziyan, gradually swirling around her and blurring her face, which was slightly distorted with anger.

Her originally exquisite makeup now appeared somewhat ferocious under the cover of smoke.

This dismissive attitude was like a spark falling into a pile of dry tinder, completely enraging Chen Ziyan.

She felt a surge of anger rush from the bottom of her heart to her head, burning her cheeks and making her eyes bloodshot.

What she hated most was Xiao Chen's stubbornness, as if she, Chen Ziyan, was nothing but a clown in his eyes!
Back then, she confessed her feelings to Xiao Chen with high hopes, only to be rejected by him in public. At that moment, she felt like a proud peacock that had been trampled underfoot, utterly humiliated.

Now, she thought she could use her family's power and wealth to flaunt her power in front of Xiao Chen and vent her anger from back then, but Xiao Chen still ignored her. How could she not be angry?
"Are you deaf?!"

Chen Ziyan could no longer hold back and screamed, her voice so sharp it seemed to pierce the night sky.

She shouted as she pointed to her expensive high heels.

A few specks of cigarette ash that Xiao Chen had just exhaled landed, quite "coincidentally," on the tips of her polished shoes. Those unsightly specks of gray stood out starkly against the black surface of her shoes, like stains on a white canvas, making them incredibly irritating to her eyes.

Her chest heaved violently, like a broken bellows, each breath carrying an angry rhythm.

Her fingers, painted with bright red nail polish, were white at the knuckles from excessive force. At that moment, she almost wanted to poke that finger into Xiao Chen's nose, as if that would make him feel her anger and authority. (End of Chapter)
