Su Xiyan looked at Chen Shuo and thought for a while before deciding to tell Chen Shuo, "My dad is going back to Su City."
Chen Shuo: "Going back is no big deal!"
"...What?! Your dad?"
"I'm shocked!"
The pedestrians on the roadside were all startled by Chen Shuo, because they saw a young man walking suddenly jump up on the spot.
Chen Shuo immediately felt an unprecedented sense of oppression and tension, and his palms were sweating: "Your dad is coming back to Su City? Am I going to meet my future father-in-law?"
Su Xiyan: "Chen Shuo, aren't you a little too confident? Who proclaims themselves as a son-in-law?"
"Besides, are you even of legal marriageable age yet?"
Chen Shuo was in no mood to joke with Su Xiyan at this time. He anxiously asked, "When is your dad coming?"
Su Xiyan: "He didn't say specifically when, probably in the next few days!"
Chen Shuo finally understood how Su Xiyan felt when she was going to meet his mother.
No matter how powerful one is, one is still quite nervous before meeting the elders of their beloved.
"Don't worry, Chen Shuo, my dad is still a very... easy-going person."
When Su Xiyan said the words "easy-going", she didn't seem to have much confidence.
Chen Shuo cheered himself on: "I think your dad will definitely like me."
"A considerate and handsome son-in-law like me is hard to find even with a lantern."
Su Xiyan almost rolled her eyes to the sky: "Narcissist!"
The neighborhood supermarket at the entrance of the complex was not very big, and the shoppers were all neighbors from the residential community.
But they seemed to have gotten used to seeing Chen Shuo and Su Xiyan going in and out together. They were no longer surprised by the dog food, and even learned to actively stuff dog food into their mouths.
A handsome guy and beautiful girl couple is just too good to resist!
Chen Shuo kept thinking about Su Xiyan's father, imagining what it would be like when they met.
He didn't even hear Su Xiyan ask him what to buy.
He randomly bought some ingredients they often ate, and Su Xiyan carried the shopping bags with Chen Shuo back to Haiyi Apartment.
In the kitchen, Chen Shuo was cooking.
Suddenly he felt a pair of hands slide around his waist from behind, hugging him from behind.
Su Xiyan hugged Chen Shuo's waist from behind, and her little head peeked out from his side, asking, "What delicious thing are you frying? It smells so good?"
Chen Shuo was pan-frying chicken cutlets, afraid that the oil in the pan would splash on Su Xiyan's arms, wanting to pull her hands away.
But Su Xiyan's arms only hugged him tighter instead.
"Don't make trouble, the kitchen is dangerous. Go wait outside for the meal!"
Su Xiyan's little head shook, and as she shook her head, her pointed chin rubbed against Chen Shuo's body.
"It's okay, you'll protect me if there's any danger."
Chen Shuo laughed: "Didn't you say you were going to protect me?"
"How did it become me protecting you now?"
When Su Xiyan spoke, she leaned against Chen Shuo's back, and her breath on his back made him itchy: "I didn't know you were so powerful before!"
"Our Chen Shuo is not a rookie vampire, but the number one ghost king in Su City!"
"So from now on, you should be the one protecting me."
When Su Xiyan said this, she was completely lacking the confidence she had before. On the contrary, she was rather unconfident.
Chen Shuo could understand Su Xiyan's psychological gap at the moment.
She had always thought she was the boss lady, the one who could protect Chen Shuo.
She had also said that she would cover Chen Shuo in the future.
Who could have expected that the little rookie she had always said she would protect well turned out to be a hidden expert?
Su Xiyan, who had too much pride and was used to being above others, was really struggling to adapt to such a gap.
Chen Shuo turned the flame on the gas stove to minimum, turned around, and hugged Su Xiyan back.
His big hand gently patted her slender back: "From now on, we'll take care of each other, advance and retreat together."
Hearing Chen Shuo say this, the light in Su Xiyan's eyes blossomed again: "Mm-hmm!"
With the bonus of love, even a simple dinner tasted especially sweet.
After dinner, Su Xiyan pinched Chen Shuo's cheek: "I'll take care of the dishes and bowls, you go take a shower!"
Chen Shuo grabbed Su Xiyan's little hand with one hand, and put his other hand around her slender waist: "The water bill has been a bit expensive recently."
Su Xiyan's big eyes widened, not understanding: "Hmm? Why mention this suddenly?"
A trace of mischief flashed in Chen Shuo's eyes: "I've always been a very thrifty and diligent good boy. To save water, I've decided to take a shower with you."
Su Xiyan: "......"
A few seconds later, Su Xiyan's fist landed on Chen Shuo's shoulder, and she squeezed out a word from between her teeth: "...Jerk!"
Before Su Xiyan erupted, Chen Shuo had already rolled into the bathroom.
While showering, Chen Shuo thought about the system.
Just now when Su Xiyan was angry, the system disappeared.
Thinking back further, it seemed like every time the system appeared, it was when Su Xiyan was in a great mood.
Could it be that the system was still afraid of Su Xiyan's powerful aura? But the system only appeared when Su Xiyan was in a good mood. When she was in a bad mood, the system continued to malfunction like before?
In any case, the system basically did not malfunction in front of Su Xiyan.
As for whether this mood of being good or bad would affect the system, it still needed to be verified.
The warm water flowed from the showerhead, pouring over Chen Shuo's body, gathering into streams along his muscular contours.
He wondered what Su Xiyan's dad looked like?
Chen Shuo pieced together a portrait of Su Xiyan's dad in his mind. With such a beautiful daughter like Su Xiyan, her dad must be quite handsome. The family conditions should be good too, rich, so he must be a wealthy and handsome uncle??
Thinking so much now was useless, just wait until they meet to find out!
A strange feeling rose in Chen Shuo's heart. He felt that his meeting with Su Xiyan's dad would not be so simple.
After the shower, Chen Shuo ran a bath for Su Xiyan, scattering flower petals and dripping fragrant essential oils, looking at the dreamlike bathtub. Chen Shuo thought to himself that it was a good thing Su Xiyan had money, otherwise he really couldn't afford to spoil her.
A beautiful, rich, smart, and down-to-earth girl, Su Xiyan was simply the perfect girlfriend!
Big sister, so fragrant!
Rich lady, so sweet!
While Su Xiyan was taking a bath, Chen Shuo sat on the sofa playing on his phone.
Suddenly, he felt a familiar fragrance rushing into his nostrils, couldn't help but breathe in the sweet-smelling air a few more times.
Following the source of the fragrance, Chen Shuo looked towards Su Xiyan who had just walked out of the bathroom, and his gaze could no longer be shifted away.

e vast world of cultivation, where he becomes the master of the Heavenly Ruins Sacred Hall, a dying old man with barely a tenth of his former cultivation remaining. He is immediately confronted with a deadly crisis: his subordinates have rebelled, and his protectors are forcing him to abdicate. At the critical moment, the system descends from the heavens: [Ding! The host has been detected facing a life-or-death crisis. The system is now officially activated!] [As a gift, you have received the Supreme Beginner’s Pack and awakened the ultimate cheat: ten thousand years of pure cultivation essence every second!] Yin Tianjue: “Wait… ten thousand years of cultivation every second? That’s six hundred thousand years a minute, and in one day… I can’t even calculate it. Either way, I’m already invincible!” You’re a peerless prodigy rarely seen in ten thousand years? Sorry, I gain ten thousand years of cultivation every second. You’re an undying ancestor who has guarded a sacred land for countless ages? Sorry, I gain ten thousand years of cultivation every second. You’re the strongest chosen one, blessed with heaven-defying destiny? Sorry, I gain ten thousand years of cultivation every second. From this day forth, I have only one thing to say: “I gain ten thousand years of cultivation every second. Now, how exactly are you supposed to deal with that?”
nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
