At the start of the celebration banquet, military leaders took the stage to deliver speeches, commending all those who had made meritorious contributions.

He personally conferred the rank of General upon Chen Yizhong.

When Chen Yi went on stage to receive the medal, Xu Xiao was overjoyed and quickly took out her phone to call Xu Linwei.

"What are you doing?"

Ye Cheng quickly replied.

"I'll video call Ms. Xu and show her how handsome her husband is!"

Xu Xiao said with a smile.

Ye Cheng smiled and said, "Yesterday, a paparazzi filmed Major General Chen and posted the video online. He's already been detained."

Ah!

Upon hearing this, Xu Xiao was immediately startled, her finger stopped on the screen, and her whole body froze.

Ye Shuang smiled and said, "Miss Xu, Major General Chen is now an important figure in the country. His image is a state secret, so it can't be posted online casually."

"And with so many important people here, if everyone comes to film, wouldn't it create chaos?"

"Oh, I see!"

Xu Xiao was shocked upon hearing this, but at the same time, she was overjoyed.

So Mr. Chen is such an important person!

She thought to herself that she was just an ordinary country girl, and it was only by following Mr. Xu that she began to see the world.

But now, a high-ranking national figure has appeared beside her!

I never even dared to dream of this!

She sent Xu Linwei a WeChat message.

"Mr. Xu, no videos or photos allowed! You won't be able to see Mr. Chen receiving his medal!"

Finally, she added a sentence.

"You all have no idea how handsome Mr. Chen is!"

Over there, Xu Linwei and the others received the message and their expressions turned cold, with an urge to tear someone apart.

"I suspect Secretary Xu is just showing off on purpose!"

"That little brat, just wait till she gets back and I'll teach her a lesson!" Xu Linwei said angrily.

However, the smile in her eyes couldn't be hidden.

After the medal-awarding ceremony concluded, Chen Yi returned to his seat, where the commander personally offered him a toast.

"General Chen, you are the pillar of our Great Xia Dynasty. The nation and its people will rely on you from now on!"

Chen Yi smiled modestly: "The leader is the pillar of the country, and we still have to rely on you for important matters."

Hahaha! The leader laughed heartily and drank it all in one gulp.

Just then, he received a phone call, and his expression darkened slightly.

Chen Yi asked, "Commander, is there something you need?"

"Japan is up to its old tricks again, purchasing a batch of missiles from America and deploying them on the island of Yojima."

"The leader said."

A cold, stern glint flashed in Lei Zhen's eyes:

"Yu Island is only 400 kilometers away from the coast of our Great Xia. The Japanese are up to no good. We cannot sit idly by."

"rest assured."

The leader smiled calmly, "It is impolite not to reciprocate. You fight your way, I fight mine. If the enemy advances one foot, I will advance ten feet. When has my Great Xia ever suffered a loss?"

"Yeah, hahaha!"

Everyone smiled knowingly upon hearing this.

Lei Zhen added, "I heard that America has gathered a bunch of cronies to conduct exercises in Sulu and back up Sulu?"

Sulu is an ally of America and has been making quite a fuss in the South China Sea lately, calling on allies and seeking backers everywhere.

The leader smiled calmly and said, "When guests come to visit, we just clean the room, set out the food, and invite them to dinner. What's the big deal?"

"Hahaha!"

Everyone smiled knowingly again.

After the banquet, Chen Yi took Xu Xiao back to the hotel to sleep.

The car had just left the state guesthouse and was driving on a quiet street.

Suddenly, high beams came on ahead, a car was parked on the side of the road, and a woman was leaning against it.

Wearing a red cheongsam, revealing her sexy long legs.

The streets are dark and deserted late at night, which has a unique charm.

Wan Zitong!

That woman was Wan Zitong.

There was a young man standing next to her.

Chen Yi's lips curled up slightly as he parked the car on the side of the road and got out.

"General Chen."

Wan Zitong quickly came forward, his face full of respect.

Chen Yi's gaze was cold.

"Miss Wan, you weren't waiting for me so late, were you?"

Wan Zitong wore a forced smile.

"General Chen, our Wan family was ignorant in the past and offended you in some ways."

I'm waiting here tonight specifically to apologize to General Chen. I'll do anything you ask if you can forgive the Wan family.

She smoothed her hair behind her ear, revealing a hint of allure.

"Really, you can do anything?"

A meaningful smile appeared on Chen Yi's lips.

"certainly."

Wan Zitong smiled, exuding charm, and said, "I will absolutely cooperate as long as General Chen wants it."

She never dreamed that Chen Yixiu was so highly skilled, and that he had even become a lieutenant general in the Special Investigation Bureau.

The Wan family is someone you absolutely cannot afford to offend.

If you can't afford to offend them, then turn enemies into friends.

No man has ever been able to resist Wan Zitong's charming and tender nature, and Chen Yi is no exception!

Wan Zitong had even made up her mind that as long as General Chen nodded, she would only be General Chen's woman from now on.

General Chen will be the greatest support for the Wan family.

"Alright, I really do want to take something from Miss Wan."

Chen Yi's smile became increasingly meaningful.

Wan Zitong was overjoyed, her beautiful eyes sparkling:

"General Chen, it's not convenient here. Let's go to my apartment. I've prepared some fine wine to apologize to you."

"No need. I only want Miss Wan's life!"

click!

Chen Yi said, and suddenly grabbed Wan Zitong by the neck.

"General Chen... General Chen, why are you doing this?"

Wan Zitong was horrified. Why did General Chen want to kill her?

Chen Yi's expression suddenly turned cold and stern:

"You hired the Bloodthirsty Butcher to kill me, didn't you? Your Wan family is truly courting death!"

Ah!

Wan Zitong was terrified.

How is that possible!

How did he know I sent Bloodhand Butcher to kill him?

"General Chen...General Chen, you've misunderstood! There must be a misunderstanding!"

"Your Wan family is a nuisance. Well then, let's settle things here tonight."

Chen Yi said coldly.

Click!

He then crushed Wan Zitong's neck.

Ah!

The young man was terrified at the sight and ran away as fast as he could.

Swish!

With a wave of his hand, Chen Yi grabbed him in mid-air.

"This one from Wanjia is perfect!"

Immediately, Chen Yi made a hand seal.

Bloodline Curse Kill!

……

The following morning, Chen Yi flew back to Jiangning.

That very morning, a piece of news caused a sensation in Beijing.

The Wan family, one of the three major martial arts families, saw all its male members die suddenly overnight.

The police could not find any clues, and the cause of death for all of them was unknown.

Overnight, the once-prosperous Wan family vanished from the land of China.

Nobody knows why.

There's only endless speculation going on...

……

As soon as the plane landed and Chen Yi and his companion stepped out of the terminal, they saw Xu Linwei waiting by the roadside.

"husband!"

When Xu Linwei saw Chen Yi, she flew over excitedly like a swallow and hugged him tightly.

Chen Yi reached out and put his arm around her waist, then kissed her on the lips.

"Did you miss me?"

"Um!"

Xu Linwei nodded with a smile, "Let's go home."

Xu Xiao felt so full from all this dog food.

"Mr. Xu, I have some personal matters to attend to, so I'll be leaving now."

She vowed that she had to find a boyfriend, otherwise she would eventually die from being overwhelmed by Mr. Xu's displays of affection.

"Where are you going? I'll take you there," Xu Linwei said.

"No, no, your business is important. You and Mr. Chen should go home quickly."

Xu Xiao dragged her suitcase and ran away without looking back.

The two got into the car and headed straight home. After a frank and in-depth conversation, Xu Linwei nestled against Chen Yi's chest.

"Honey, Xu Xiao said you got awarded a medal?"

"Yes, Lieutenant General," Chen Yi said in a gentle voice.

"Lieutenant General!"

Xu Linwei happily raised her head, rolled over and pressed herself against Chen Yi, blinking as she stared into his deep eyes.

"Then wouldn't I be the general's wife!"

"Of course!"

Chen Yi pinched her nose, a slight smile playing on his lips. "If this were ancient times, you would be a Lady of Imperial Decree."

He paused for a moment, then said, "Didn't you want to marry the top scholar? Would you be satisfied with marrying a general?"

"Satisfied! Extremely satisfied!"

Xu Linwei's beautiful eyes sparkled, and she kissed him deeply on the lips.

"The wife of a top scholar can't compare to the grandeur of a general's wife, hehe!"

She lowered her head to his chest, her face filled with intoxication.

"Honey, I have something to tell you."

"What is it?"

Xu Linwei recounted Shen Youyi's situation and concluded by saying, "Let's find some time to meet and see the dresses they designed."

"Sure, whatever time you say, I'm fine with it," Chen Yi replied.

"I'll ask them how the design is going."

As she spoke, Xu Linwei pulled her phone out from under her pillow and dialed the number.

Chen Yi gently stroked her hair, the faint fragrance wafting from her body filling his nostrils, making him feel completely intoxicated.

After finishing the call, Xu Linwei put her phone back under her pillow and slapped Chen Yi's hand.

"Take your hand away and get down to business."

Then she rested her elbow on the pillow, propped her chin on her hand, and looked down at Chen Yi.

"Ms. Shen said they have already designed it, and we can bring it over to take a look this afternoon."

Chen Yi checked the time; it was almost one o'clock.

"Okay, let's go grab something to eat, then we'll head back to the company."

The two got up, and Xu Linwei went to the dressing table to touch up her makeup. Just then, Chen Yi's phone rang.

It was Lu Wuxun calling, the Grand Elder of the Qingfeng Hall of the Longevity Society.
