Chapter 783: The Green of the Hulk
by xennovel“You make it sound so easy.”
Li Qiancheng disagreed and retorted “If it were really that simple the world would be in chaos by now.”
Who was Xu Shaochen? The future leader of Xu Corporation controlling vast sums of money.
One word from him could decide the fate of countless people.
Li Qiancheng couldn’t even imagine killing him and getting away with it unscathed.
“Young Master Li does Xu Shaochen have three heads and six arms? Or can he perform seventy-two transformations?”
“He’s human like us made of flesh and blood. He’ll die if stabbed or shot just the same.”
“You’re overreacting simply because you hold him in such high regard. You’re subconsciously intimidated but he’s nothing special.”
Lin Kai patiently tried to persuade Li Qiancheng as he currently held the most power among them.
If he didn’t take the lead these few people wouldn’t be able to accomplish anything.
“That’s right Young Master Li this is Jingcheng. His advantages are at their lowest here. If he leaves Jingcheng we might not get such a good opportunity again.”
“Young Master Li Master Lin is right. It’s not as difficult as you imagine. The key is whether you have the courage to do it.”
Yang Hui and Yang Ming also chimed in trying to convince Li Qiancheng.
“You… have a plan?”
Li Qiancheng asked tentatively clearly wavering.
Indeed Xu Shaochen was human and humans die when killed.
…
Xu Shaochen was unaware that a conspiracy was unfolding against him.
At this moment he was being treated as a future son-in-law by Mr. and Mrs. Li Tianming.
“Well… Xiao Xu when did you and our Xiao Ya start dating? We haven’t heard anything about this before.”
Li Tianming asked Xu Shaochen feeling as if there had been no process in between and his daughter had suddenly been taken.
In fact this feeling wasn’t wrong at all.
There really wasn’t much of a process in between.
The key was that last night was a bit cold the Car space was small and with no one around it was quite normal for a man and woman to get carried away.
“We met online. Before coming to Jingcheng I was learning about some things on the local forum and that’s how I met Xiao Ya.”
“As we got to know each other better we felt we were a good match and decided to become a couple.”
Watching Xu Shaochen speak so eloquently and convincingly Li Qian Ya herself almost believed it.
“Online? The internet is a wonderful thing. Many young people are into it these days.”
Mr. and Mrs. Li Tianming nodded finally having their doubts cleared.
“What are your plans now?”
Li’s mother asked.
“We…”
“We’ve decided to spend some time getting to know each other better before discussing marriage. We’re in no rush for the next couple of years.”
Before Xu Shaochen could finish Li Qian Ya eagerly interrupted shooting a challenging glance at Xu Shaochen as if to say ‘Dream on if you think this young miss will marry you’.
Xu Shaochen wore a disappointed expression but inside he was grinning. ‘What a considerate little darling I don’t even need to make excuses. Ah how delightful.’
“Xiao Xu what do you think?”
Mr. and Mrs. Li Tianming looked at Xu Shaochen implying that Li Qian Ya’s opinion wasn’t important. They of course hoped the two would settle on marriage soon but since it was their first meeting they couldn’t openly push for it.
Xu Shaochen held Li Qian Ya’s hand and said softly “Uncle Auntie I’ve always respected Xiao Ya’s opinions. Let’s do as she says.”
“Look how considerate Xiao Xu is. Really I don’t know how you ended up like this.”
Li’s mother looked at Li Qian Ya and said huffily. In her view Xu Shaochen definitely wanted to get married but was mainly accommodating their daughter.
Little did she know Xu Shaochen had no intention of getting married or at least hadn’t thought about it yet.
But with Li Qian Ya this self-proclaimed clever iron-headed fool taking the lead in Mr. and Mrs. Li Tianming’s eyes everything was their daughter’s fault.
“Tap~ Tap~ Tap~”
“Uncle Li…”
Just then accompanied by the sound of high heels striking the floor a tall woman walked in. It was Tang Silin.
Tang Silin hadn’t finished speaking when she saw Xu Shaochen and Li Qian Ya sitting together holding hands. Her smile instantly froze as if struck by lightning she stood motionless.
Her first thought was that she had been cheated on greened like the Hulk completely green.
For reference imagine how a man feels coming home from work to find his wife cuddling with a strange man on the sofa()
“Sister Silin…”
Li Qian Ya’s face changed color feeling guilty and anxious like being caught in bed with a lover. She tried to pull her hand away from Xu Shaochen.
But Xu Shaochen held on tightly his eyes filled with amusement and playfulness feeling super excited.
“Silin’s here come sit. Let me introduce you this is Xiao Ya’s boyfriend.”
Li’s mother warmly invited Tang Silin to sit down. She quite liked this friend of her daughter.
“Xiao Ya and Silin are so close she probably knew before us. Why bother introducing?”
Li Tianming said dismissively looking at Tang Silin with a smile “Silin isn’t that right?”
“Uncle you’re right I’ve known Xu Shaochen for a while.”
Tang Silin smiled forcedly feeling weak and unsteady. She didn’t even know how she made it to the sofa her mind in complete chaos.
She simply couldn’t imagine.
Li Qian Ya had said she was using her charm to seduce him how in such a short time had she brought Xu Shaochen home to meet her parents?
It must be that she fell for his charms instead.
Women are more sensitive in matters of love Tang Silin felt like her whole world was falling apart.
Li Qian Ya saw this and felt anxious but in this situation she couldn’t openly explain. She could only worry silently.
Xu Shaochen said with a smile “Uncle Auntie actually Xiao Ya and I first met thanks to Silin. If it weren’t for her Xiao Ya and I wouldn’t have had the chance. We should really thank her.”
Achievement unlocked — Master of Twisting the Knife.
“Pfft—”
Tang Silin felt as if she had been stabbed in the heart her gaze towards Xu Shaochen could kill.
Wasn’t it because of her that Xu Shaochen and Li Qian Ya met?
She now felt like crying but had no tears left having lifted a rock only to drop it on her own foot.
“Is that so? Silin is this true?”
Li’s mother asked incredulously.
Tang Silin put on a “bright” smile and nodded “Yes that’s right.”
“This is fate. You young people chat we won’t get in your way.”
Li Tianming said giving his wife a look then the two of them got up and left.
Suddenly the spacious living room was left with just Xu Shaochen Li Qian Ya and Tang Silin.
