Chapter 3

with schadenfreude."Haha, Qin Xi, what do you have to fight me with I am the legitimate heir of the Qin family. In the old master's eyes, only I am the future of the family. In three days, I will watc...Chapter 3

After five years, Qin's mother's charm remains unchanged, her appearance almost the same.

After years of military service, Yang Chen's outline hadn't changed much, but his entire demeanor had undergone a drastic transformation. In Qin Mu's eyes, Yang Chen was already dead, so when she saw him again, she was both surprised and furious.

"Mom! It's me!"

A soft smile appeared on Yang Chen's face. This time, he just wanted to make up for Qin Xi properly.

"It's really you, you waste of space!"

Qin Mu finally confirmed that the man before her was Yang Chen. She crossed her arms and glared at him, like a shrew, and said angrily, "You didn't come back early or late, but you just had to return when Xiaoxi is about to remarry. Are you deliberately here to cause trouble"

At this time, Qin Father also ran over, just saw Yang Chen, and heard Qin Mother's words. Without saying a word, he punched over, and at the same time roared angrily: "I'll beat you to death, you bastard, you dare to come back!"

"Bang!"

A burly figure suddenly appeared, grabbing Qin's father's arm in a flash and saying coldly, "No one has the right to touch him!"

The one who stopped Qin Bu's Han soldiers was naturally Ma Chao.

Having followed Yang Chen for many years, he was extremely burly and had a fierce appearance. His appearance instantly quelled the atmosphere. Qin's father looked terrified.

"Get out!" Yang Chen's voice was as cold as frost, his blade-like eyes falling on Ma Chao.

Although Ma Chao was very unwilling, he wouldn't disobey Yang Chen's order. He could only let go: "I'm sorry, Brother Chen!"

"I know you were wrong, just get out of here. From now on, don't interfere in my affairs without my orders." Yang Chen's face was full of coldness.

At this moment, Yang Chen's aura inadvertently released a hint. Just this hint made Qin Father and Qin Mother realize that the useless son-in-law they had in their eyes, who had disappeared for five years and returned, seemed to be a little different. However, this thought only flashed by. In their view, Yang Chen was still a waste.

With Ma Chao's intervention, Qin Father and Qin Mother dared not lay a finger on Yang Chen again.

"With wings hardened, even my father dares to move. Get out of here, get out now!" Qin's father roared, if not for the fear of that burly man just now, he would have made a move long ago.

Yang Chen's heart burned with anger, but when he thought of that figure he had yearned for five years, he suppressed the anger again and again. He kept telling himself that his return this time was to compensate Qin Xi, he could endure anything.

“This trash can’t leave, he’s just back in time. Today, I'll have him and Xiao Xi go through the divorce process, tomorrow we'll get Xiao Xi and Wang Jian engaged. We don’t even need a death certificate, it’s so much easier.” Qin Mother hurriedly grabbed Yang Chen’s arm, afraid that Yang Chen would really leave and never be found again.

Qin Fu also suddenly realized, and grabbed Yang Chen's other arm: "Your wife is right. When Xiao Xi comes back, you two go get a divorce."

Yang Chen was forcefully dragged into the courtyard. If someone didn't know, they would think that his in-laws were so welcoming because their son-in-law had returned.

Entering the house, I saw a banquet table in the living room, already full of people. They were all relatives of Qin's mother.

Among these relatives, there was also a strange face, a young man in full brand name clothing, who deliberately exposed his wristwatch, a very valuable Rolex. It seemed that all the relatives around him were sitting around him.

At this moment, the young man squinted at Yang Chen who had been 'invited' into the house by Qin's father and mother.

There's a big cake on the table, it looks like someone is having a birthday.

Only in Yang Chen's memory, neither Qin's father nor Qin's mother, nor even Qin Xi, had their birthdays today. Then whose birthday is it

Just moments ago, the family was still discussing how to obtain a death certificate for Yang Chen. Now, here he is, alive and well! Everyone felt a surge of fear, but it quickly gave way to wide-eyed excitement and anticipation, as if they were watching a thrilling play unfold.

"Yang Chen, wasn't he missing for five years How did he suddenly come back"

"Neither early nor late does he return, but Wang Shao insists on marrying Xiao Xi. His return is probably for other reasons."

“Other thoughts In front of Wang Shao, he's just trash. Does he even have the qualifications to compete with Wang Shao”

Qin Mu's relatives whispered amongst themselves, whether intentionally or not. Although they kept their voices low, everyone present could hear them. The young man known as Wang Shao was clearly listening intently.

Wang Shao, however, acted as if he hadn't heard anything. He looked at Qin Mu and asked with confusion, "Auntie, who is this"

Qin Mu sneered and gave Yang Chen a look of disdain: "He's the one who disappeared for five years, and I was about to get a death certificate for him. He suddenly showed up again. Just rest assured, he came back just in time. It takes time to process a death certificate, but the divorce papers can be done today."

Qin's mother made no secret of her desire for Qin Xi to divorce. After she finished speaking to Wang Shao, she said with a smug look: "Yang Chen, he is Wang Jian, the eldest son of Jiangzhou Wang family's head. In a few years, he will inherit the position of head of the family. I advise you not to have any further thoughts about Xiao Xi. We both agree on their marriage."

If you have any sense, wait for Xiaoxi to come back and quickly go through with the divorce proceedings. Don't delay Xiaoxi's happiness.

A table full of relatives, at this moment, are all talking at once. In front of this young master Wang, everyone wants to curry favor with him by stepping on Yang Chen.

Yang Chen's eyes flashed with a sharp glint, gone in a blink.

These relatives are really annoying. If it weren't for Qin Xi, I could teach them a lesson between breaths.

Wang Jian was quite satisfied, with a smug look on his face. He leaned back in his seat, gently rocking the full champagne glass, and stared at Yang Chen with a smirk, saying jokingly: "I wonder what you've been up to during those five years you disappeared"

Yang Chen glanced at him lightly: "Join the army!"

"Enlisting Did you spend five years raising pigs in the army, haha..."

Before Wang Jian could respond, suddenly a relative burst into laughter, and the other relatives at the table also laughed freely.

Yang Chen was silent.

Wang Jian twitched the corner of his mouth, casually took out a check, swiped it a few times and signed his name, pushing it in front of Yang Chen, and said arrogantly: "You should have seen that the Qin family doesn't welcome you. You came back this time, you must be here for money. As long as you are willing to divorce Qin Xi, the number on this check, you can fill it at will, and it can be cashed out immediately at any bank in Jiangzhou."

At this moment, all of Qin's relatives' eyes lit up, wishing that the check was given to them.

"Little Wang, where does he need money Xiao Xi is my daughter, I want them to divorce, they have to divorce. Why should we still give him money" Qin Mother looked at the check, as if she had taken out her own money and given it to Yang Chen for nothing.

Wang Jian's eyes flashed a hint of disdain, but he still smiled and said, "Mother, to me, money is just a string of numbers. I don't want any complications, I just want Xiaoxing to recover her single status as quickly as possible."

Hearing Wang Jian say this, Qin Mu did not dare to say anything more, she just looked at Yang Chen's eyes with even colder coldness.

Amongst the envy of his relatives, Yang Chen picked up the check.

"Zzzzt!"

Just when everyone thought he was going to take it, Yang Chen publicly tore the check into pieces.

He immediately looked at Wang Jian with a calm expression: "If Qin Xi wants to divorce me, I will never stay at the Qin family. But if she doesn't want to, no one else should interfere in our affairs."

If any brothers from the North are present, they would know that this Yang Chen in a state of calm is his most dangerous.

Wang Jian's eyes narrowed slightly. The young man in front of him gave him a hint of pressure, a feeling he didn't like at all.

All the others looked gleeful and delighted, like they were watching a spectacle. To offend Wang Jian was to essentially be courting death.

Just as the crossbow was about to be loosed, a crisp sound of high heels clicking on the floor rang out. Two figures, one large and one small, then appeared – it was Qin Xi, accompanied by a little girl.

"Wang Jian, how come you're here again This is my house, I don't welcome you, please get out immediately!" Qin Xi's face darkened as soon as she saw Wang Jian, and she directly gave him the boot.

Hearing this familiar voice, Yang Chen, who was facing away from the doorway, trembled violently.

He had imagined countless times the scene of meeting Qin Xi again, and secretly rehearsed countless times. But when he was truly facing Qin Xi, he discovered that all his previous rehearsals were useless. At this moment, he didn't even dare to look back at the woman he had deeply regretted and missed for five whole years.

"Dad!"

Yang Chen hadn't turned around yet when a familiar voice suddenly rang out from behind him. His body trembled violently, and he turned to see a petite figure rushing towards him with joy on her face.

Just now at the airport, this little girl was clinging to me and calling me "Dad."

Yang Chen squatted down and naturally held the little girl in his arms.

Naturally, as if he had held countless little girls just like the one before him many times already.

At this moment, Qin Xi also saw Yang Chen. Their eyes met, and for a moment, the whole space seemed to freeze, with only their gaze lingering between them.

Over the past five years, this figure had appeared countless times in his mind. His longing and guilt for this woman were the driving force that kept him going, pushing him to become stronger so he could be worthy of her.

Qin Xi's beautiful eyes were fixed on that figure, and for a moment, too many emotions flickered across her stunning face.

"Xiao Xi, I'm back!" Yang Chen broke the silence first.ery trick in the book to seduce Chen Dong, practically giving herself away for him, but he remained as wooden as ever, often saying nonsensical and infuriating things.But from what she's experienced,...
