My Ares Son-in-Law

Qin Xianglan looked at Xiao Chen, her heart almost completely occupied by his tall figure. Her pretty face flushed red, and her heart pounded.

She was so frightened that she quickly lowered her head, afraid that Xiao Chen would see through her and make normal interactions impossible in the future.

At this moment, Chen Jianguo put down his still unconscious son and knelt down before Xiao Chen once again.

“Master Xiao, I, Chen Jianguo, was blind and failed to recognize your greatness. I was foolish to not take your words seriously before, and to mistake you for a swindler was a heinous crime! I beg you to be magnanimous and not hold this old fool against me!”

Even now, Chen Jianguo is still afraid.

Fearing that Xiao Chen would hold a grudge against the Chen family because of this incident, and that she would not only not help the Chen family in the future, but would also make things difficult for them, she and Yu Zhiqiang had the same idea: to make Xiao Chen completely let go of her resentment.

Xiao Chen remained unmoved.

Chen Jianguo gritted his teeth, stood up, grabbed the still unconscious Chen Shaocong, and slapped him hard.

He slapped him again and again, wishing he could beat the kid to death.

Chen Shaocong was already unconscious and had no way to resist. His cheeks were swollen and red again from the beating, and his mouth was frighteningly red.

But Chen Jianguo didn't care about any of that. He not only hit him, but also cursed him, and the curses he used were extremely offensive.

"You beast! I'll teach you to be disrespectful to Master Xiao! I'll teach you to be arrogant and domineering, and make you tell Master Xiao to get out! I'll teach you to be so conceited and ignorant of your place! Today I'll beat you to death, you unfilial son, so that you can live in this world and harm others and yourself!"

He slapped Chen Shaocong dozens of times, waking him up and then knocking him unconscious. He only stopped when his own hands were aching terribly.

With a thud, Chen Jianguo knelt down in front of Xiao Chen again, his face covered in cloudy tears: "Mr. Xiao, if you're still not satisfied, I'll beat this kid to death!"

Chen Xue also knelt down. She knew that Xiao Chen was still angry, and if she couldn't appease him today, her younger brother would likely be in trouble in the future.

“Master Xiao, my brother is young and immature, and impulsive. That’s why he spoke rudely to you. I beg you to be magnanimous and forgive him this time. I am willing to atone for his sins. Whatever you ask me to do, I will do it willingly and without hesitation!”

"Get up." Xiao Chen glanced at the two of them indifferently. "Chen Shaocong's leg injury was his own doing. He was arrogant and looked down on people of higher status. This is the punishment he deserves, and he has no one to blame but himself. As for your Chen family, remember, this is a one-time exception. If you dare to show the slightest disrespect again, you won't be so lucky next time."

"I'm a very reasonable person. If someone gives me face, I'll give them face in return. If someone insists on causing me trouble, then I'll definitely retaliate. You two don't need to kneel down anymore. I don't intend to take his dog's life, but remember, don't let me see him again, or you'll bear the consequences!"

Chen Jianguo and Chen Xue felt as if they had been granted a pardon. Their faces instantly lit up with joy and gratitude. They hurriedly kowtowed repeatedly to express their gratitude, their foreheads hitting the floor tiles with a dull thud. Even though they had already drawn blood, they refused to stop, fearing that Xiao Chen would change his mind.

"Thank you, Master Xiao! Thank you, Master Xiao, for sparing my life! From this day forward, my life, Chen Jianguo's life, belongs to you! Whatever you ask me to do, I will do, even if it means going through fire and water, I will never flinch!"

"Alright, get up when I tell you to. Do you want to continue to morally blackmail me? Your family matters are over from today onwards. You don't need to come looking for me anymore."

Xiao Chen ignored the two men and stood up, looking at the rest of the people kneeling on the ground.

Those people fell silent, not daring to utter a single word. Even their breathing became rapid, fearing that Xiao Chen might suddenly retaliate. After all, they had all offended Xiao Chen before. "Get up, all of you. There are some things I need to tell you!"

The crowd looked at each other, but none of them dared to stand up, fearing that this was a test from Xiao Chen.

Qin Xianglan grew anxious: "A bunch of idiots, can't you hear Mr. Xiao? Get up right now, do you expect Mr. Xiao to help you up?"

She didn't want the feng shui community in the western region to suffer a devastating blow. Some of these people were already quite old, yet they really didn't understand Xiao Chen at all.

Xiao Chen always meant what he said. If he told you to get up, he meant you got up. He never had any ulterior motives. These guys were really just trying to figure out what Xiao Chen was thinking.

The first to react was the former president, who stood up unsteadily: "Thank you, Mr. Xiao. I really do have some difficulty walking, so I got up first."

Xiao Chen nodded.

Seeing that Xiao Chen did not blame the former president of the Feng Shui Association, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief and stood up one by one, but they were still somewhat timid and dared not utter a word.

Today was a huge shock to them; everything that happened felt like a dream, and they were really scared.

“Since you’re all up, I’ll say it now. Listen carefully. Anyone who dares to utter a single word about what happened here today, or leak even half a secret, will suffer the same fate as Huang Qiankun.”

"I'm not joking with you. I have very important things to do. I can't reveal my identity, and I can't disclose my abilities. Don't think that I don't know about these things you're talking about in private. You'd better keep your mouths shut!"

Xiao Chen's voice was icy cold, filled with intense killing intent, which made everyone tremble.

It's not that he's ruthless, it's just that he really needs to keep it a secret. If word gets out about what happened today, all the members of the Prison Clan will have to avoid him, so how could he possibly hunt them down again?

"We will obey Master Xiao's orders! We would never dare to divulge a single word! If any one of us does, we will all tear that guy to pieces!"

It was the former president of the Feng Shui Association who spoke first.

“That’s right, we will absolutely do as Master Xiao instructed, and we would never dare to utter a single word in our dreams!”

Everyone said in unison.

Xiao Chen smiled and said, "Don't worry, you won't dream about what happened here today. I'm quite confident about that. You might not know this, but I've placed a spell on each of you. This spell doesn't do anything wrong, except that it prevents you from talking nonsense in your sleep, so you won't reveal secrets in your dreams!"

This statement was half true and half false; its main purpose was to scare these people.

Sure enough, after hearing this, everyone's fear of Xiao Chen increased. Some of them had originally planned to tell their wives and sons about what happened today, so that their wives and sons would not offend this master in the future. But now, they didn't even dare to say such a thing.

"Alright, we've done everything we needed to do today. Miss Qin, please take me back to the villa!" (End of Chapter)
