Wang Yue couldn’t help but find it amusing: This Jiao Jiao hasn’t even had a taste herself yet, and she’s already thinking about helping others with their boat pulling.

Although Su Jiaojiao meant well, Wang Yue did not want to accept it.

He had already vaguely sensed his two older cousins’ feelings for him, but they were both very reserved. They were neither as enthusiastic and proactive as his mother, nor as bold and direct as his aunt and her daughter. If he went too far, he might scare them away.

So he interjected, “What’s there to argue about? I think whether someone is destined for a bad life or not can’t be generalized. It has to be linked to strength. As long as you have enough strength to protect yourself, no matter how beautiful you are, you don’t have to worry about being coveted by anyone.”

The twin sisters then came to their senses and nodded in unison, saying, “What my brother said makes the most sense.”

“All you do is protect him.” Su Jiaojiao snorted, then suddenly had a thought: “Do you think Second Aunt will be bullied in the Yang family? After all, she has the qualities of the most beautiful woman in history, and she probably doesn’t have enough strength to protect herself.”

Bang!

The high-speed hovercar crashed heavily into a large tree by the roadside, startling the three Su sisters. They saw Wang Yue release his hands from the steering wheel, clench his fists tightly, and the veins on his arms bulged.

Su Jin’er quickly gave Su Jiaojiao a look, signaling her to stop talking, and at the same time comforted her, “It’s alright. After all, Second Aunt was taken away as the future wife of the young master of the Yang family. Even if she is not popular in the Yang family, the Yang family will not let her be bullied just for the sake of face.”

“Phew—” Wang Yue let out a deep breath and forced a smile, saying, “Don’t worry, I’m fine. I’m sorry to have worried you all.”

Wang Yue was deeply grateful to his second aunt, whom he had never met and had only recently heard of. After all, without her sacrifice back then, it might have been his mother who was taken away, and if his mother had been taken away, he wouldn’t exist.

If he lacked the strength, Wang Yue had no choice but to accept it. After all, acting impulsively would not only bring misfortune to himself, but would also implicate the three major families of Jinling.

But now he is not only strong, but also has the potential to conquer the world. This makes him impatient. Even waiting one more day is torture for him.

The thought that his beloved second aunt, who had been so kind to his mother and siblings, might be living in dire straits filled him with excruciating pain.

Su Jiaojiao realized she had misspoke and quickly added, “Brother, I think Sister Jin’er is right. Second Aunt is the most beautiful woman in history. Which man wouldn’t cherish and protect such a wife? How could she be worth bullying? As for why Second Aunt hasn’t written to us for so many years, I think it’s probably because she doesn’t want to contact us.”

“Yes, yes, if it were me, being sold off by my own father when I was six years old, I would also be filled with resentment and never want to have anything to do with that sad place again,” Su Xiu’er continued, while secretly giving Su Jiaojiao a thumbs up: This thick-skinned girl actually hit the nail on the head and came up with the most convincing evidence to comfort Wang Yue.

After hearing their words, Wang Yue’s mood improved considerably.

Although upon closer examination, there were still many things to worry about, he didn’t want to think about it anymore.

He is determined to go to the Yang family, but not now. Before setting off, he only needs to do his best to improve his cultivation. Thinking too much will only disrupt his mind and will not help at all.

While otaku have many flaws, they also possess a huge advantage: an exceptional ability to regulate their emotions, which, to put it bluntly, means they are unmatched in their self-comfort.

In his previous life, Wang Yue had stayed in that mysterious space for millions of years. Without this ability, he would probably have died of depression long ago. Therefore, he quickly adjusted his mood, restarted the car, and drove towards the city.

That’s why you get what you pay for. With such a violent impact, even the big tree was cracked, but Wang Yue’s hovercar didn’t lose a single piece of paint. The only loss was that he was fined by the city for damaging a tree.

In a remote, unknown land, atop a colossal mountain tens of thousands of meters high, perpetually covered in ice and snow, lies a complex of buildings constructed entirely of ice.

At the very center of the complex is a massive ice palace.

The palace was empty except for a woman in an ice-blue dress sitting on the highest ice throne.

Aside from a long, ice-blue dress, the woman wore no other adornments. Her long, black hair, reaching her waist, was casually draped behind her. Her bare face was breathtakingly beautiful, and she exuded an aura of elegance and nobility, yet also coldness and frost.

If Wang Yue were to see this woman, he would be greatly surprised, because she looks exactly like his mother, Su Mengyan, in both appearance and figure, and even the colors of her favorite clothes are very similar.

However, unlike Su Mengyan’s usual indifference, this woman’s temperament was like ancient ice, and just one glance at her would make people shiver with cold.

Suddenly, as if an iron tree were to bloom and the ice were to melt away, a gentle smile appeared on the face of the woman in the blue dress, a face so beautiful that even fairies would feel ashamed. She murmured to herself, “I didn’t expect these little ones to care about me so much. It’s just a pity that I can’t go to see you for the time being.”

If her fellow disciples saw this smile, they would be utterly astonished. However, she had never smiled since she came to the Xuan Nu Palace more than twenty years ago. Even two years ago, when she ascended to the position of Palace Master at the tender age of thirty-something, breaking a record that had stood for hundreds of years, she showed no joy whatsoever.

Therefore, in the eyes of the people of Xuan Nu Palace, this new palace master is a person who never smiles, and is even born without emotions, with a heart as hard as ice. Otherwise, he would not be so compatible with the Xuan Nu Palace’s heritage, and his cultivation has reached an incredible level in just over twenty years since he entered the palace.

After a moment, the woman sighed softly again: “Mother, Yan’er, and my eldest and youngest sisters, it’s been thirty years since I last saw you. I wonder how you are doing now.”

Suddenly, the woman abandoned her sentimentality and reverted to her icy demeanor.

A moment later, a woman dressed in white, whose beauty was only slightly inferior to that of the woman in blue, walked in from outside. She bowed slightly in front of the woman in blue and said, “Palace Master, the news has been confirmed. The Zhang family of Tianhai is preparing to make a large-scale entry into Jinling, and their target is the three major families of Jinling.”

“Hmm.” The woman in blue nodded and said calmly, “Understood. Keep a close watch, but the palace disciples are not allowed to make a move unless it is absolutely necessary.”

The woman in white was taken aback and asked, “Palace Master, didn’t you say before that you would nip all dangers in the bud? Why have you changed your mind?”

“No need to ask any more questions, just do it.” The woman in blue said calmly, but in her heart she was thinking: Yan’er seems to have given birth to a very remarkable son. This is a good opportunity to let him hone his skills.

The woman in white accepted the order and was about to leave when the woman in blue added, “Also, have someone expedite the development of a remote control and monitoring program, and notify me as soon as it’s ready.”

The woman in white looked at the woman in blue with some surprise, wondering: Why is the Palace Master interested in the technologies of the mortal world?

However, intimidated by the palace master’s authority, she did not dare to ask any further questions. She simply agreed and, seeing that the palace master had no further instructions, took her leave.

After the woman in white disappeared, the woman in blue looked nostalgic, feeling a pang of regret. With current technology, the only way to remotely access the system was to manually install the monitoring program.

The people she sent couldn’t get close enough to the three major families of Jinling to access their communication devices, so they could only install some in their cars and other places so that she could occasionally see them and hear them talking.

In fact, if she wanted to, she could have had her disciples sent to Jinling install surveillance equipment in the residences and even bedrooms of the three major families, but she only wanted to understand her relatives’ current lives and did not want to pry into their privacy, so she did not do so.

Once the remote proximity program is developed, I will be able to keep track of each of their movements at any time, which is equivalent to living with them.

Mother, Yan’er, just wait. In less than ten years, I will break through that realm, and then no one will be able to stop me from reuniting with you!

The woman in blue thought to herself, then closed her beautiful eyes and began to cultivate, drawing upon the pure, icy energy emanating from the Xuanbing Throne.

Meanwhile, Wang Yue and his three companions had intended to surprise Chu Mo, but when they arrived at the gym, they discovered that Chu Mo hadn’t been there for three days.

Given how much she values ​​this gym, it’s clearly unusual.

Su Xiu’er immediately turned on her communicator and called Chu Mo, but the call couldn’t be connected.

“Has something happened to Momo?” Su Jin’er anxiously grabbed Wang Yue’s arm. “What should we do?”

“Let’s go, straight to the Chu family,” Wang Yue decided immediately.

His relationship with Chu Mo is a bit special now. If they are just ordinary friends, there will be no problem for him to go to the Chu family as a friend. But if the two of them have already established a relationship, and he goes there as a prospective son-in-law, there will be even less of a problem.

But right now he is “pursuing” Chu Mo, and their relationship is not yet established. Moreover, his identity is quite special, so going to the Chu family at this time would inevitably be somewhat inappropriate.

But now that Chu Mo has lost contact, Wang Yue doesn’t care about anything else and immediately leads the three women to the Chu family.

The Chu family lived near the city center in a small villa area, surrounded by a wall to indicate that it was a private area.

Because of their excellent relationship with Chu Mo, Su Jin’er and Su Xiu’er were frequent guests at the Chu family’s residence, and therefore were not stopped at the gate.

Guided by the twin sisters, Wang Yue drove directly to Chu Mo’s villa, and the four of them went up together and rang the doorbell.

“Jin’er, Xiu’er, you’re here!” Xu Yanran, who opened the door, seemed a little excited to see the Su sisters.

“Aunt Xu, let me introduce you. These two are our cousin Wang Yue and cousin Su Jiaojiao.” Su Xiuer first introduced the two sides to each other: “Xiao Yue, Jiaojiao, this is Momo’s mother, Aunt Xu Yanran.”

“Hello, Auntie.” Wang Yue and Su Jiaojiao politely performed a martial arts salute.

“Hello, please come in and have a seat.” Xu Yanran quickly invited the four of them in, her beautiful eyes mostly fixed on Wang Yue.

During this time, her daughter Chu Mo had talked about this young master of the Wang family a lot in front of her, praising him to the skies. Therefore, she was quite curious about this boy who was more than five years younger than her daughter.

Upon meeting him, Wang Yue made a very good first impression on her. He was honest, polite, and completely lacked the spoiled air of a typical rich kid.

This is quite remarkable. Currently, the situation in Jinling is dominated by the three major families, and Wang Yue is the only male heir of the three families. As the only son of a large family, he is naturally showered with love and affection, yet he has not been spoiled and developed any bad habits. This shows that the boy must be of good character.

As the saying goes, a mother-in-law is always more satisfied with her son-in-law the more she looks at him. Moreover, Wang Yue not only has a good personality but is also very handsome, so Xu Yanran was naturally even more satisfied.

“Aunt Xu, where’s Momo?” Su Jin’er asked immediately after sitting down in the living room.

Xu Yanran’s expression darkened slightly. She pointed upstairs and said, “She’s in her room. Her father has locked her in and confiscated her communicator. He said he won’t let her out until she marries Zhang Qingtian.”

“How could Uncle Chu do this!” Su Xiu’er exclaimed anxiously. “What era are we living in? Locking someone up, especially his own daughter.”

Xu Yanran was a little embarrassed and quickly said, “I’ll call her dad right now and ask him to release Momo. He’ll definitely give you face.”

“Auntie, no need, Uncle Chu will be here soon,” Wang Yue said. “Sister, let’s go upstairs and take a look first.”

Although the Chu family didn’t stop Wang Yue and his group, they would definitely report their arrival, and Chu Kuo would surely come over after receiving the news.

“It’s no use you going up there. The walls and doors of Momo’s room have been reinforced with special materials. You can’t open them without a key.” Xu Yanran sighed, but she felt quite comforted: Wang Yue’s concern for his daughter showed that he was serious about her.

Even if Chu Mo couldn’t have a formal title by following him, it would still be better than marrying into the Zhang family.

Actually, if Zhang Qingtian hadn’t been such a scumbag, Xu Yanran would still have leaned towards him. After all, no mother would want her daughter to be someone else’s lover for life without any status or recognition.

However, there are no “what ifs” in life. Zhang Qingtian was indeed a scumbag, which made Wang Yue seem better in comparison.

As for Wang Yue’s insatiable greed—having a fiancée yet still pursuing Chu Mo—Xu Yanran had some reservations, but she didn’t care too much. Living in this era, she was already used to these things.

“It’s alright. Even if we can’t unlock it, it’s good to say a few words to her through the door.” Wang Yue smiled slightly at Xu Yanran and stood up.

Su Xiu’er immediately got up and led Wang Yue towards the stairs, familiar with the way.

With such a lively scene, how could Su Jiaojiao be left out? So she immediately followed along, leaving Su Jin’er alone in the living room to keep Xu Yanran company.

Xu Yanran wanted to say that the Chu family’s building also used the top-quality materials, with excellent sound insulation, so it was impossible to talk through the door, but considering that this was Wang Yue’s good intention, she did not stop him.

When Wang Yue and his two companions arrived at the door of Chu Mo’s room on the second floor, Wang Yue immediately placed his hand on the door lock and tested it with his true energy. He found that the door and lock were indeed specially reinforced, enough to withstand the attack of a peak expert in the Condensation Realm. In other words, without the cultivation of the Earthly Realm, one could not think of breaking it open by force.

Chu Mo was only at the Qi Refining Realm, so there was no need to worry about her escaping while locked inside.

However, this was no problem for Wang Yue. With a slight release of his true energy, he broke the door lock, and the door to the room opened with a sound.

“MoMo, how are you? We’ve come to rescue you!” As soon as the door opened, Su Xiu’er immediately called out to the inside.

Chu Mo quickly appeared in front of the three of them. Looking at Wang Yue, she smiled slightly and said, “You’ve finally arrived.”

“Huh? Momo, why do you seem so normal?” Su Xiu’er asked curiously. In her mind, Chu Mo, who had been locked up for three days, must have looked extremely haggard and on the verge of collapse.

However, apart from being slightly pale, Chu Mo looked no different from usual.

Chu Mo smiled and said, “Because I know that Wang Yue will definitely come to save me. Even if it is inconvenient for him to break into the Chu family, he will definitely break into the Zhang family on my wedding day and snatch me out.”

As he spoke, a hint of anticipation even appeared on his face.

Yes, that’s confirmed. This is a victim of old-fashioned idol dramas who actually thinks it’s romantic for the male lead to suddenly appear out of nowhere and forcefully steal the bride at the wedding where the female lead is marrying another man.

Wang Yue couldn’t help but laugh and said, “It seems we’ve arrived too early.”

Chu Mo shook her head: “No, at least I can get out sooner and won’t have to be locked up here every day.”

Su Jiaojiao couldn’t help but ask, “Sister Chu Mo, what will you do if my cousin never comes and doesn’t show up on your wedding day?”

“I’ll wait until the very last moment. If he doesn’t come, it means I misjudged him. In that case, I’ll just give the Zhang family a corpse,” Chu Mo said calmly.

Su Xiu’er was startled and quickly said, “Mo Mo, don’t do anything foolish!”

Wang Yue laughed and said, “Sister, don’t worry unnecessarily. She’s not that stupid. She must have already prepared a backup plan.”

“Xiu’er, after all these years as sisters, you still don’t understand me as well as Wang Yue.” Chu Mo laughed along, but then said seriously, “However, if you really betray me, I can’t guarantee that I won’t do something foolish.”

Wang Yue held Chu Mo’s hand and said earnestly, “Don’t worry, I may not be able to be completely devoted to you, but I will never let you down in this life.”

“Mmm.” Chu Mo nodded, a shy and happy blush rising on her pretty face.

“Wow! How romantic! Give them a kiss!” Su Jiaojiao’s eyes lit up as she cheered from the side, but she was quickly pulled downstairs by Su Xiu’er, leaving the second floor to Wang Yue and Chu Mo.

Although Wang Yue and Chu Mo had gone on several dates before, and both were interested in taking things further, their most intimate contact was nothing more than holding hands.

But today, Chu Mo was unusually unrestrained, and she actually kissed Wang Yue directly at the door of her room.

Wang Yue had long wanted to taste Chu Mo’s alluring lips, but he always played the innocent little boy in front of Chu Mo and his two cousins, so he couldn’t take the initiative at all.

Now that Chu Mo had delivered herself to him, he wasn’t going to be polite and immediately started a passionate kiss with her.

However, despite the kissing, he couldn’t use his kissing techniques at all, otherwise it would ruin his image.

Chu Mo, on the other hand, was truly inexperienced. As a result, the two kissed for almost a minute, but they only sucked on each other’s lips without even moving their tongues.

But this was stimulating enough for Chu Mo. Soon, her breathing became rapid, her heartbeat quickened, and her body began to feel hot and weak. She could hardly stand up.

Just then, Su Xiu’er’s deliberately raised voice came from downstairs: “Uncle Chu.”

Wang Yue and Chu Mo both knew that Su Xiu’er was reminding them that Chu Kuo had arrived, so they reluctantly ended the kiss and walked downstairs side by side.

In the living room, Chu Kuo was talking to the Su sisters when he saw Chu Mo come downstairs with Wang Yue. He asked in surprise, “Why did you come out?”

“Break the lock, and you can get out,” Chu Mo said casually, as if she were talking about a trivial matter.

Chu Kuo frowned deeply. Who else in this villa, besides himself, could forcibly break the lock? Could there be experts from the three major families hiding in the shadows?

If that’s the case, things could get complicated.

Although he favored the Zhang family and felt that the three major families of Jinling would not survive this crisis, he did not want to offend them before the outcome was decided.

Originally, he thought the matter between Chu Mo and Wang Yue was just a childish farce that wouldn’t involve the family level. However, if the three major families sent experts above the Earthly Realm to support Wang Yue, the situation would be very different.

This shows that the three major families have already taken the Chu family into their sights, and are now using the relationship between Wang Yue and Chu Mo to force him to choose sides.

Chu Kuo didn’t have much ambition. He just wanted the Chu family to gain a foothold in Jinling. This wasn’t difficult; as long as they remained neutral, there wouldn’t be much of a problem.

But he was blinded by greed and wanted to marry into the Zhang family, and now he’s in a bind.

However, Chu Kuo had some guts. Since the three major families were forcing him to take sides, he decided to lay his cards on the table and said, “Wang Yue, could we talk in my study alone?”

“Of course, Uncle Chu, please.” Wang Yue nodded in agreement and gave Chu Mo a reassuring look.

The two then went to the study. Since Chu Kuo did not live there, the study was just for show, but it was very quiet, making it perfect for discussing secret matters behind closed doors.

“Sit down.” Chu Kuo gestured for Wang Yue to sit down, took out a pack of cigarettes and gestured for him to sit. When Wang Yue shook his head, Chu Kuo took out a cigarette, lit it, took a deep drag, and then asked, “Do you know that Momo is engaged to the Zhang family?”

“I know.” Wang Yue nodded.

“If I remember correctly, you and Chen Xi from the Chen family should also be engaged, right?” Chu Kuo asked knowingly.

“Not bad.” Wang Yue nodded again.

Chu Kuo thought that by bringing up Wang Yue’s engagement, Wang Yue would feel ashamed, and he could take the initiative in the conversation. However, he did not expect that the kid’s skin was even thicker than an old fox’s, and he did not react at all.

“Since you and Momo are already engaged, why bother yourselves with this ‘free love’ thing?” Helpless, Chu Kuo had no choice but to bring up his daughter as well: “Isn’t this irresponsible to your respective families?”

“Uncle Chu, you’re right to admonish me, but you were young once too. You should know that when it comes to feelings, once they’re there, you can’t control them at all,” Wang Yue said, looking quite guilty.

Chu Kuo was speechless, because the phrase “feelings are beyond one’s control” was the most common phrase used by playboys who had one man and multiple women or one woman and multiple men, and even Chu Kuo himself had used it.

If you’re not clean yourself, how can you use such a reason to demand things of others?

Chu Kuo suddenly realized that this seemingly simple young master of the Wang family was not as easy to deal with as he had imagined. Although he was much younger than Zhang Qingtian, compared to him, Zhang Qingtian was more like a child.

This made Chu Kuo not only angry, but also develop a slight appreciation for Wang Yue. If he had another chance to choose, and did not know who the Zhang family’s backer was, he would definitely choose to give his daughter to Wang Yue.

But now that their daughter’s engagement to Zhang Qingtian is finalized, it’s too late for regrets.

Moreover, Chu Kuo never thought of regretting it. Wang Yue was better than Zhang Qingtian in every way, but the power behind the Zhang family was too great. Once they made a move, the three major families of Jinling would be wiped out in an instant.

Without the support of the three major families, what use is Wang Yue no matter how outstanding he is?

Having made up his mind to side with the Zhang family, Chu Kuo decided to stop being polite and said in a deep voice, “In short, as Chu Mo’s father, I am telling you that you are not allowed to have any contact with each other from now on!”

“I’m afraid that’s not up to you,” Wang Yue said with a faint smile.

Chu Kuo angrily said, “Wang Yue, don’t force me to make a big fuss, or it will be bad for both of us!”

“Okay, let’s make a big fuss then.” Wang Yue laughed nonchalantly, “Anyway, I’m still a child. At most, people will say I lack manners.”

Chu Kuo’s expression froze. Yes, Wang Yue was just a fifteen-year-old boy. Even if they broke off all pretense of civility, at most he would be branded as ill-mannered, as he said. As long as the Wang family said they would discipline him properly in the future, it would be fine.

As for himself, as the head of the Chu family, it would be incredibly embarrassing to have such a falling out with a child, and it would become a stain on his reputation for life.

Chu Kuo stared at Wang Yue for a long time, but in the end, all his anger turned into a sigh: “I oppose you, not only for the Chu family, but also for Momo. If you really like her, then stop bothering her, so as not to implicate her.”

Wang Yue’s heart skipped a beat, and he asked, “What do you mean by that, Uncle?”

Chu Kuo sighed again: “For Momo’s sake, I’ll tell you some news. The Zhang family has secretly joined forces with Tianhai’s forces. It won’t be long before people from there arrive, and their target is your three major families.”

Wang Yue was taken aback and asked, “Why are you telling me this?”

“Although Momo and I are father and daughter, she has never been close to me since she was little. She feels that I have wronged her mother. Actually, there are reasons for this.” Chu Kuo said, “But she is my first child after all. How could I not love her? She likes you. If something happens to you, she will be very unhappy. So, listen to my advice and ask your three families to give up Jinling. Perhaps there is still a way out.”

Wang Yue was stunned again.

Because of Chu Mo, he had always had a bad impression of Chu Kuo, thinking that he was like his maternal grandfather, a person who would sacrifice everything for the benefit of the family. But he never expected that Chu Mo would have such a fatherly affection for him.

“Since you have your reasons, why not tell Momo? That would at least improve your relationship with your daughter,” Wang Yue said.

This time, it was Chu Kuo’s turn to be stunned. He didn’t expect that after he had brought up such a serious matter, Wang Yue would still be worried about his father and daughter’s situation. This made his impression of Wang Yue even better.

“That predicament is really hard to talk about,” Chu Kuo said vaguely, then added, “Moreover, as a father and the head of the Chu family, I can’t possibly lower myself to my daughter’s level.”

Well, while he’s not a cold-blooded patriarch, he’s still a stubborn old man with the mannerisms of a patriarch.

Wang Yue secretly complained, but found Chu Kuo to be a bit cuter than before.

“Uncle, do you know which force in Tianhai is behind the Zhang family?” Wang Yue asked.

Chu Kuo shook his head and said, “I don’t know about that yet, but Tianhai is full of powerful people. Even if it is just a medium-sized force, it is definitely not something that our Jinling forces can withstand. So, I suggest you go back and discuss it with your grandmother.”

“Uncle Chu, thank you for reminding me.” Wang Yue sincerely thanked him and then said, “In return, I also have a piece of advice for you: I will not force you to side with the three major families in this matter, but it is best not to get too close to the Zhang family, otherwise when they exterminate their clan, the Chu family may be accidentally harmed.”

“You…you want to wipe out the Zhang family?!” Chu Kuo was utterly shocked.

Wang Yue smiled without saying a word, but he didn’t seem to be joking at all.

“Our conversation ends here. Remember, I only told you about Momo, nothing else.” Chu Kuo was a little confused and desperately needed to find a secluded place to calm down.

Although Wang Yue’s words may not represent the attitude of the three major families, what if they are? Before Tianhai’s forces arrive, the Zhang family is absolutely no match for the three major families, and even with the addition of the Chu family, it will be of no use.

After leaving the study, Chu Kuo left in a hurry without even saying goodbye.

“Wang Yue, what did you two talk about?” Chu Mo asked somewhat nervously.

Wang Yue laughed and said, “What else could it be? Of course, it was your father who appealed to my emotions and reasoned with me to make me leave you.”

“And then?” Chu Mo became even more uneasy.

“Then I tried to persuade him with my emotions and reason, and get him to agree to be with me.” Wang Yue said, “Unfortunately, he is very stubborn, and I couldn’t convince him no matter how much I talked.”

Chu Mo breathed a sigh of relief: “I can think of that. As long as you’re not convinced by him, it’s fine.”

“Of course not. I’ve said it before, I will never let you down in my entire life,” Wang Yue said affectionately.

Chu Mo smiled happily.

“Ugh, I’m getting goosebumps!” Su Xiu’er joked, “Please, if you’re going to show off your love, go somewhere else, okay?”

Su Jiaojiao sang with a laugh: “Cold dog food is slapping my face randomly, and goosebumps are falling all over my body…”

Xu Yanran, however, wore a gratified smile. Her daughter was much happier to have met a boy who was kind and loyal to her than she herself had been a sacrifice for the family.

Su Jin’er suggested, “Mo Mo has been locked up for so long, now that she’s out, why don’t we go out for a walk to clear our heads?”

“Okay, okay!” Su Jiaojiao was the first to raise her hand in agreement when it came to going out to play.

Su Jin’er then said, “Aunt Xu, why don’t you come along too?”

Xu Yanran was in a good mood today and was somewhat tempted by the suggestion, but after thinking about it, she shook her head and said, “Forget it, I’m just an ordinary person. If I go with you, I’m afraid it will spoil your fun.”

Wang Yue immediately said, “That’s easy, let’s just go to places suitable for ordinary people.”

“Yes, let’s go to the amusement park!” Su Jiaojiao immediately suggested.

Another amusement park?

Wang Yue was speechless. Chen Fei still had the mentality of a child. It was understandable that he suggested going to an amusement park, but Jiao Jiao, you are only a month younger than me, right? You are a fifteen-year-old girl. Why are you still thinking about places like this?

However, to Wang Yue’s surprise, Su Jiaojiao’s suggestion was unanimously approved by everyone except him.

Wang Yue and his three companions, plus Xu Yanran and Chu Mo, made up six people. It would be too cramped to sit in Wang Yue’s hovercar, so they simply left Wang Yue’s car at the Chu family’s house and drove a seven-seater car from there.

Today, because Xu Yanran was there, they didn’t go on any of the more thrilling rides right away. They first took a sightseeing bus around the entire amusement park, and then did a few more relaxing group rides.

Then Su Jiaojiao couldn’t stand it anymore and insisted on going bungee jumping.

The bungee jumping here is as high as nearly 300 meters. Even martial artists who have not reached the Heavenly Origin Realm would be smashed to pieces if they jumped from such a height. It’s extremely thrilling.

This time, it was Chu Mo who was the first to agree.

She was locked in her bedroom for three days and three nights. She said she wasn’t worried, but she wasn’t in a good mood either, so she wanted to find something exciting to do and relax.

Su Jin’er and Su Xiu’er, being Chu Mo’s best friends, naturally had to accompany her.

Xu Yanran shook her head and smiled, “You guys go ahead, I’ll rest downstairs for a while.”

Wang Yue had absolutely no interest in this and said, “Yes, you guys go ahead. I’ll stay with Auntie, don’t worry.”

“No need, I won’t be in any danger here. You should go with them,” Xu Yanran said to Wang Yue with a smile.

“Auntie, please give him a chance to please his future mother-in-law,” Su Xiu’er said with a smile, then waved her hand: “Let’s go!”

The four women immediately ran towards the bungee jumping platform, while Wang Yue accompanied Xu Yanran to the other side of the deep lake below the platform.

Not long after, Chu Mo was the first to jump down from there.

Xu Yanran looked at her daughter screaming in the air and suddenly said to Wang Yue, who was standing next to her, “Mo Mo is not a little girl anymore, but sometimes she still has a childish temper. You have to be more tolerant of her.”

“Auntie, you’re exaggerating. If we’re talking about childish temper, I definitely have more than Momo. Besides, I think she’s even cuter this way,” Wang Yue said with a smile. Then, making conversation, she added, “You know what? She’s actually hoping that I’ll show up again on the day she marries into the Zhang family and snatch her away from the wedding in front of everyone.”

Xu Yanran didn’t laugh, but instead sighed softly: “What she wants is not a forced marriage, but a grand and spectacular one.”

Wang Yue was taken aback and quickly asked, “What do you mean?”

Xu Yanran said, “You are already engaged, so she is destined not to become your lawfully wedded wife. She can accept this because of her feelings for you, but she will inevitably feel some resentment. That’s why she hopes that something unforgettable will happen between you to make up for this regret.”

Wang Yue then realized that Chu Mo wasn’t addicted to some old-fashioned idol drama. He felt a surge of warmth and secretly decided: If you want a dramatic love story, then I’ll give you one!

After changing the subject, Wang Yue said, “Auntie, I think Uncle Chu loves Momo a lot, so why is their relationship so bad?”

“Does Chu Kuo dote on Momo a lot?” Xu Yanran was taken aback: “I didn’t realize that.”

“It’s true, he said it himself. He just hasn’t shown it to Momo to maintain his fatherly authority,” Wang Yue said. “Uncle Chu also said he had his reasons. If I may ask, is there some misunderstanding between you two?”

“There’s no misunderstanding, but he does have his reasons.” Xu Yanran blushed slightly as she said this, and after a pause, she continued, “But I’m not familiar with him, and we don’t usually talk much. Maybe it’s because of this that Momo has misunderstood. And Chu Kuo has never said anything caring about her. Over time, it’s become like this.”

What exactly is the reason that prevents the couple from telling Chu Mo?

Wang Yue couldn’t help but wonder if Chu Kuo was impotent.

But that’s not right. It’s said that this Uncle Chu has several lovers and other children.
