Beautiful CEO's Super Expert Chapter 767: Evergreen Superior to Momentary Blossoms

"Since she stubbornly refuses to talk, maybe this person doesn't exist, and she made them up to fool her parents and stop them from pushing her into blind dates,"

After hearing Xia Qiuru's words, Su Chen replied, with so disingenuousness.

"Really?"

Seeing his guilty deanor, Xia Qiuru couldn't help but smile.

"It should be."

Su Chen nodded emphatically, unsure if he was trying to convince Xia Qiuru or himself.

"Your thinking actually coincides with what her parents believe, which is why they keep forcing her to go on blind dates. That's why Xinran called her this morning to talk about it."

"Oh, is that so!"

Su Chen stamred, and just as the dishes arrived, he hastily changed the subject:

"Co on, their braised pork here is very good, try it."

He said, picking up a piece for Xia Qiuru.

Xia Qiuru smiled and didn't continue the conversation...

...

In a small courtyard of the Situ Family, there was a pine and cypress tree.

At that mont, an old man was standing in front of the tree, looking up with a blank expression, lost in thought.

Shortly after, a man in his fifties walked into the courtyard and stood beside him.

"Master, what are you looking at?"

Nian Song asked softly.

"Braving the cold to welco the heat, standing tall on the mountain ridge; green in all seasons, proud against the azure sky. Though lacking brilliance, permanence wins over fleeting fragrance."

Situ Kong recited a poem as he gazed upon the lush green pine and cypress.

"What do you an by that, Master?"

Nian Song seed to understand but was also sowhat puzzled.

"Permanence wins over fleeting fragrance!"

Situ Kong uttered reflectively, his gaze still upon the tree:

"This is also the philosophy of the Five Great Families. Legacy is of utmost importance! Permanence is more valuable than montary splendor!"

"Sir, are you worried?"

Nian Song glanced at the old man and asked.

"The old monster of the Su Family is dead, how can I not be worried?"

Situ Kong turned his head and sighed at Nian Song:

"Do you think those other old fellows aren't worried? They are even more concerned than I am!"

"Yes, I never imagined that that young man could actually defeat that person from the Su Family, a true half-step ridian Expansion master!"

Upon hearing Situ Kong's words, Nian Song, too, expressed his sentints:

"And he's just barely over twenty!"

"Even now, it still feels like a dream to !"

Nian Song continued.

"What if he were to grow for another ten or twenty years?"

Situ Kong looked at Nian Song as he spoke.

After hearing Situ Kong's words, Nian Song couldn't help but shiver!

"We must kill him as soon as possible!"

Nian Song's murky eyes suddenly flared with fierce determination.

In his mind, if this young man were allowed to continue to grow, perhaps not even the heavens could contain him!

Of course, they had already made this decision earlier; now they were simply more resolved in their conviction!

So, at this mont, when Situ Kong heard what Nian Song said, he nodded solemnly, although there was still a look of concern on his face.

"My lord, you needn't worry too much. I'm sure the other families will agree to join forces, and when the ti cos, as long as the Five Great Families act together, that young man will certainly have no chance of survival, no matter how powerful he is!"

Nian Song reassured him.

"You do have a point," replied Situ Kong.

Situ Kong nodded, but in his heart, he was not as confident as Nian Song.

Because this young man had already surprised them ti and again beyond their expectations!

Although they had Hidden Dragon Hall, it was not a force controlled by the Five Great Families!

Whether they would take action or when they would do so was not up to them to decide!

"Oh yes, my lord, I've revised the guest list for the third young master's wedding again. Please take a look," Nian Song said, as he passed a rolled-up piece of paper to Situ Kong.

Normally, wedding invitations would have been sent out by now, but since the Situ Family was a major clan and Situ Kong attached great importance to this wedding, the guest list had been revised several tis, so it hadn't been sent out yet.

"I'll take a look later. If there are no issues, go ahead and print them, and try to send them out the day after tomorrow," said Situ Kong, taking the guest list from Nian Song.

"All right."

Nian Song agreed, and then he left, as there were more and more things to deal with as the wedding date drew closer.

And as the person in charge of this wedding, he was, of course, very busy…

...

Unbeknownst to Su Chen, the Situ Family was preparing to join forces with the other great families to deal with him. Even if he knew, he wouldn't care.

After dining with Xia Qiuru, Su Chen strolled back to the company.

He didn't stay long at the company, only visiting the public relations departnt for a while before driving back ho to prepare for cultivation.

He had been running around dealing with Skull Society affairs recently, so his cultivation practice had fallen behind.

Once he entered the state of cultivation, ti always flew by especially fast, and before he knew it, evening had arrived.

Afterward, he stopped his cultivation to go grocery shopping, thinking that Lin Ruoxue probably hadn't been eating well while he was away.

Even though grocery shopping and cooking might seem mundane, and many n might feel it was beneath them, Su Chen actually enjoyed it quite a bit.

He and Lin Ruoxue had dinner together that evening, and then they rested.

The next day, after breakfast, Su Chen didn't go to the company with Lin Ruoxue but stayed at ho to continue his cultivation.

In the afternoon, he drove to the hospital because it was Yunlong's day to be discharged.

Actually, Yunlong had wanted to be discharged after just a couple of days, but Yunyao insisted that he listen to the doctors and stay until now.

"Sis, when big brother cos later, you have to take the initiative and seize the opportunity!"

"And, you shouldn't rush back to Jianghai anyti soon. Stay here for a while longer. You can think about going back after you've won big brother over."

"You know what they say, 'A man woos a woman across a mountain, a woman woos a man behind a veil.' Plus, you're so beautiful!"

...

At this mont, in the hospital room, Yunlong was earnestly giving advice to Yunyao.

"Are you done being annoying?"

Yunyao, who was busy packing up Yunlong's belongings, couldn't help but toss a piece of clothing onto the bed in frustration and spat out her impatience.

Yunlong's incessant advice was throwing her into a turmoil; she now deeply regretted admitting to him a few days ago that she felt sothing special for Su Chen.

Because Yunlong had been harping on about his "big brother" constantly, asking her about her feelings for him.

Yunyao, on a whim, said she didn't know if she liked him or just found him special.

Who knew that would lead her little brother to behave like he was on a stimulant, urging her every day to actively pursue his "big brother"—with even more zeal than before!

Yunyao had already been feeling rather troubled about Su Chen and sotis tried deliberately not to think about him.

But now, even if she tried not to think about him, Yunlong would incessantly remind her, so one could only imagine how irritable she felt…
