Picking Up a Gorgeous CEO for a Wife

Qin Yu’s words left Zhou Tong and Zhou Lan dumbfounded, as if they didn’t recognize Yang Xiong at all!

What the hell, gone for just one week, and how did Yang Xiong seem like a completely different person?

If the Yang Xiong of the past had spoken those words, Zhou Tong would definitely have slapped him to the ground!

But now, Zhou Tong was actually influenced by ’Yang Xiong’! Qin Yu’s acting skills were too strong.

In the past, Zhou Tong had also been a man of humble origins who made himself strong slowly through struggles and battles, slowly earning military merits, slowly becoming the Third Elder, slowly acquiring a wife and ensuring his offspring’s future!

A flame ignited in Zhou Tong’s heart! For the first time, he found his son-in-law quite appealing!

With a whoosh, Zhou Tong stood up and patted Qin Yu’s shoulder forcefully!

”Good lad! You have finally earned my admiration! I grant your request! I’ll be waiting for your good news! I’ll be waiting for you to become a Heavenly Human Realm expert!”

Zhou Lan gazed steadily at her man, always believing her husband to be the best!

In this moment, the image of Yang Xiong stood incredibly tall in Zhou Lan’s heart!

”Yang Xiong, I am a sensible woman, and I won’t hold you back! Since you have this ambition, I will definitely support you!

However, I seek no recognition or heritage rights for myself; all I wish for is your safe return!”

Zhou Lan’s gaze was filled with profound love, and even though Qin Yu knew she was not looking at him, he still felt moved!

Qin Yu finally understood why Zhou Lan’s eyes shone—it was because she loved this man!

Qin Yu was glad he hadn’t impulsively killed Yang Xiong, for if he had, Zhou Lan would surely have died of grief.

”Father-in-law, when can I join the army set to subjugate the Prisoner’s Graveyard?”

Qin Yu didn’t want to spend another moment with Zhou Lan. The feeling of seeing but not tasting was utterly frustrating!

”No need to rush. Come to think of it, we haven’t had a drink together in five or six years, right? Join me for a good drink tonight! Tomorrow, I will personally take you to join the subjugation army!”

”Great! We shall not return until we are drunk!” Getting drunk meant he wouldn’t have to face Zhou Lan, right?

Qin Yu didn’t know that he was being overly concerned; Zhou Lan knew the importance and wouldn’t drain Yang Xiong’s strength before he set out on his expedition.

This was the first time in many years that Zhou Tong felt his daughter hadn’t married the wrong man! So what if he was of ordinary birth? So what if his talents were average?

As long as one has determination, as long as one has persistence, as long as one is willing to work hard, who says a man from a humble family can’t rise to prominence?

Upon Zhou Tong’s command, the chefs in the residence busied themselves, swiftly preparing a lavish meal.

The Zhou family had strict rules, with women not allowed to join the men’s drinking session. Zhou Lan went to her mother’s room to chat with her.

Zhou Cong, the elder brother-in-law, accompanied them. After hearing Zhou Tong’s words, Zhou Cong had a newfound respect for his brother-in-law.

”Brother-in-law, I really didn’t expect you to make this kind of choice! I toast you. I was wrong before as an elder brother to mock and ridicule you.”

”I indeed did not do right in the past, elder brother-in-law’s reprimand was not misplaced; I should be the one toasting you.” Qin Yu lifted his cup.

”Good! I hope that after this battle, our Zhou Family will gain another Heavenly Human Realm expert!” Zhou Cong downed his drink in one go.

Zhou Tong was now like a father-in-law more and more pleased with his son-in-law the longer he looked.

Zhou Tong said with a smile, ”Certainly! It’s very easy to break through amidst life and death! Yang Xiong, let me remind you, when you comprehend the Heavenly Dao, it’s best to understand the nine Heavenly Daos!

”Only those Heavenly Human Realm powerhouses who have comprehended the nine Heavenly Daos can hope to reach the Divine Realm!”

”Thank you for the advice, father-in-law.”
