My Ares Son-in-Law

The media reporters who had been mocking Xunjiang Group for having no supporters suddenly turned their cameras on them, wanting to capture this unexpected moment.

Chen Ziyan stood there, watching them approach. The smile on her face gradually disappeared, replaced by a gloomy and angry expression.

The crowd was instantly thrown into a lake like a giant rock, and a violent commotion quickly spread.

People whispered among themselves, their chatter rising and falling like a swarm of bees, never stopping.

"What are these two girls doing here?"

"Could it be that Xunjiang Group really has some hidden background?"

There must be a story behind this!

Various speculations and exclamations intertwined, making the atmosphere at the scene even more heated.

The reporters, like sharks smelling blood, instantly became excited, their eyes gleaming with greed.

They frantically pushed their way to the front, raising their cameras high, the shutters clicking away like popping beans, the "click-click" sound never ceasing.

A barrage of intense camera flashes enveloped the two beautiful women, as if trying to freeze their every expression and movement for tomorrow's newspaper and website headlines.

This is absolutely unexpected big news!

Zhou Keying, the young lady of the Zhou family who was rumored to have "defected," actually appeared together with Yun Yuyan, the eldest daughter of the Yun family, to support this company that had been blacklisted by many parties and whose opening ceremony was deserted!

The story behind this is enough to keep all media professionals up at night, with sensational headlines flashing through their minds:
Shocking! The rebellious daughter of the Zhou family and the heiress of the Yun family embark on a journey to find Jiang.

"Amidst the ban, two powerful heiresses stand firmly in support of Xunjiang Group"...

Zhou Keying and Yun Yuyan, however, seemed to be in another world, completely ignoring the various complicated gazes around them.

Those gazes held surprise, doubt, jealousy, and a hint of barely perceptible hostility, but they paid no heed to any of it.

With elegant and firm steps, the two calmly placed the opening flower baskets they were carrying on either side of the entrance to Xunjiang Group.

The flowers in the flower basket were vibrant and fragrant, as if adding a touch of life and hope to the otherwise quiet opening ceremony.

Then, the two of them looked at Xiao Chen at the same time.

Zhou Keying's eyes were complex and deep, with a hint of inquiry, as if she wanted to read Xiao Chen's true thoughts from his face.

Her gaze was like two sharp swords, piercing straight into Xiao Chen's heart, trying to see through the turmoil hidden beneath his calm exterior.

Yun Yuyan winked at him and gave him a playful and warm smile, a smile that was like the spring sunshine, instantly dispelling the gloom in the room.

"Mr. Xiao, aren't you touched?"

"I'm risking being kicked out of the family to stand up for you!"

"If I really end up homeless, you'll have to take care of me for the rest of my life!"

As Yun Yuyan spoke, she walked casually to Xiao Chen's side. Her voice was not loud, but it clearly reached his ears, carrying her unique cheerfulness and loyalty.

She knew perfectly well that she was ultimately a member of the Yun family, and that the Yun family, intimidated by the Zhou family's power, hadn't dared to come to offer their congratulations. By coming despite her family's objections, she might very well be expelled from the family, losing her status as the eldest daughter of the Yun family and becoming a helpless person.

But she still came, for this friendship, for this friend with whom she had weathered storms together.

Xiao Chen quietly looked at Yun Yuyan. Her playful yet righteous appearance was like a ray of warm sunshine suddenly shining into his heart in winter, bringing a warm current to his heart.

The tension in my nerves eased slightly because of this unexpected warmth.

Finally, a genuine smile appeared on his face for the first time that day, a smile as radiant and sincere as a flower blooming in spring.

"Sister Yun, your kindness is too great. I, Xiao Chen, am unworthy to receive such help from you. I have no way to repay you."

"It's a pity I can't repay you with my body, but the Xunjiang Group is just starting out and needs to be built from scratch. You can choose any position you want, and the annual salary... will be twenty times higher!"

Consider this a small token of my gratitude for your kindness.

Upon hearing this, Yun Yuyan was taken aback at first, then gave Xiao Chen a playful glare, her eyes conveying both reproach and delight, as if to say:

"You're such a smooth talker."

But she didn't say anything more, she just stood silently beside Xiao Chen, like a loyal guard, showing her stance with her actions.

She knew very well that Xiao Chen was under far more pressure than she could imagine. The sarcastic glances from the outside world, the relentless attacks from the media, and the open and covert attacks from various forces were all like mountains pressing down on him, making it hard to breathe.

Her arrival and Zhou Keying's arrival may not change the overall situation, but at least it lets him know that he is not fighting alone, and that he has friends silently supporting him behind him.

"You said it yourself, don't forget!"

Yun Yuyan muttered something in a low voice, but it carried an undeniable firmness.

Her gaze swept around warily, as if she were watching out for anyone or anything that might be detrimental to Xiao Chen.

At this moment, Zhou Keying turned her gaze to Xiao Chen, her beautiful eyes like deep lake water, filled with deep inquiry.

She parted her lips slightly, her voice as melodious as a nightingale's:
"I'm quite curious, at this point, you don't show the slightest sign of panic on your face."

"Everyone outside is waiting to see you make a fool of yourself. Xunjiang Group is also in such a predicament. Do you really have some other tricks up your sleeve?"

Xiao Chen's lips twitched slightly, and he was about to say something and reveal his plan when a louder and more chaotic commotion suddenly came from the outer edge of the crowd!
The sound came in waves, one after another, instantly breaking the already tense atmosphere.

Accompanying the commotion was a deep, powerful roar of an engine, like the howl of a wild beast, which shook the ground slightly.

Several domestically produced luxury cars manufactured by Xinmeng Group slowly drove into view. Their smooth body lines and gleaming paintwork exuded their prestige and luxury.

The visitor was clearly aware of the close ties between Xunjiang Group and Xinmeng Group, and thus specially drove a luxury car manufactured by Xinmeng Group to show his support.

Each of these luxury cars is worth over a million Dragon Coins. They gleamed brightly in the sunlight, like a group of majestic warriors coming to cheer on the Xunjiang Group.

The car doors slowly opened, and a group of distinguished individuals stepped out, their appearance making the atmosphere even more tense and expectant.

The convoy stopped, and the car doors opened one by one, revealing members of the Ma family. (End of Chapter)
