Chapter 747 - 649: Elder Clan Leader Chen
"That's right, it's Tian's grandfather who wants to see Tian!"
Madam Chen said with a loving smile.
"Then hurry, I also want to meet my father-in-law!" Wu Yue giggled with excitement, "Although I met Chen Ming when I was studying here before, at the time I was just an intern salesperson during college."
"You're different now; you're Yang's girlfriend, and Chen Ming could be considered your father-in-law!"
Ling Ying gave Wu Yue a sideways glance.
Wu Yue chuckled, pulling Ling Ying's hand, "Ying, don't be jealous, we agreed to be together."
"I know, but can you first ask Yang's opinion?"
Ling Ying raised her beautiful almond eyes.
"Alright." Wu Yue could only look at Yang Tian, "Honey, my father-in-law wants to see us, should we prepare?"
"Honey?"
Yang Tian, who was initially silent, was amused upon hearing Wu Yue's words. He looked Wu Yue's stunning figure up and down, thinking: This beautiful CEO called me honey, does it mean we can get closer romantically?
Thinking of this, Yang Tian felt a bit displeased.
They had known each other for almost two years, and yet he hadn't officially even held Wu Yue's hand.
"That's right; you're my husband now. Let's go, we're going to see Grandpa."
Wu Yue giggled, pulling Yang Tian's hand, walking towards the hall.
Although Yang Tian initially didn't want to see Chen Ming, Wu Yue grabbed his hand with a fragrant aroma; he smiled inwardly and followed her into the hall. After all, Wu Yue's fragrance was captivating, and he didn't want Wu Yue to let go of his hand.
In the hall, on a large screen produced by the Chen Family, an old man was on the other side of a video call.
The old man looked very spirited.
He wore traditional Chinese clothing, black-framed glasses, and an old-fashioned slicked-back hairstyle.
This elder, at the moment, looked serious and meticulous.
He was none other than Chen Ming, the Clan Leader of the Chen Family.
As Yang Tian and the others entered, the old man's eyes shifted, first glancing at Madam Chen, then firmly onto Yang Tian.
"Are you Yang Tian?"
The old man suddenly spoke.
Everyone in the hall turned their gaze to Yang Tian.
Yang Tian's face remained calm as he nodded, "Yes, I am Yang Tian."
"Very well."
The old man simply said this. Although he appeared calm, Wu Yue, Ling Ying, and Wu Zetian, being cultivators, immediately sensed the old man's internal turbulence.
This was the composed demeanor of a superior.
Whether joy, anger, sorrow, or happiness, they were unreadable.
But the cultivators could see through one's surface emotions to their internal fluctuations.
Hence, Wu Yue, Ling Ying, and Wu Zetian could sense the turmoil within the old man, contrary to his outward calmness.
All around was a stillness.
The old man asked just one question, then fell silent, quietly scrutinizing Yang Tian.
It was unclear how much time had passed before the old man suddenly asked, "Tian, did Zhou Quan trouble you just now?"
Yang Tian frowned.
How did what happened just an hour ago reach Chen Ming's ears so quickly?
Could it be that the middle-aged man reported it directly to Chen Ming?
"Yes!" As Yang Tian stayed silent, Wu Yue had already spoken up, "Grandfather, the situation is not complicated. Zhou Xuexun from the Zhou Family targeted us. Yang Tian and I taught them a lesson, then Zhou Quan brought people over to cause trouble, and even members of the Fierce Tiger Hall came..."
"Oh?" The old man in the video suddenly looked at Wu Yue, smiling kindly, "You must be Wu Yue, one of the Four Beauties of East Sea?"
"Grandfather, you know me too?" Wu Yue smiled with joy, "Actually, I met you years ago; I've always wanted to collaborate with the Chen Family, but lacked the connection. You're a legend in the business world, a respected figure for all of us young people!"
"Hahahaha..."
The old man in the video let out a laugh.
Beside him, Madam Chen also laughed and said to Wu Yue, "Xiaoyue, your grandfather hasn't laughed like this in a long time. It seems Tian marrying a wife like you is indeed a blessing for the Chen Family!"
"Thank you for your kindness, Grandma..."
Wu Yue quickly followed up with flattering words.
She addressed him as grandfather again and again, making it seem like she was the Chen Family's granddaughter-in-law to anyone unaware.
But the old man in the video waved his hand, signaling Madam Chen to stop, "Alright, my joy is because Wu Yue, one of the Four Beauties of East Sea, personally called me grandfather. Actually, the events during this period have been reported to me. It's a miracle that the Chen Family remained safe under the attacks of the Corpse Demon, but what delights me is that Tian not only returned to the Chen Family but also brought back several lovely girlfriends."
"Grandfather, you're right, both Yingying and I are Yang Tian's girlfriends..."
Wu Yue quickly pulled Ling Ying's hand, signaling her to greet the old man as well.
Ling Ying blushed slightly, first looking at Yang Tian before greeting the old man, "Hello, Grandfather..."
"Haha..."
The old man in the video laughed heartily, "Tian, you've brought glory to the Chen Family. I will return tomorrow for a Chen Family meeting. You will be the main focus. Though Chen Zheng wronged you greatly, the Chen Family will repay you one by one..."
After a pause, the old man suddenly spoke in a low voice, "But before that, I want to present you with a meeting gift!"
"Meeting gift?"
Wu Yue and Ling Ying were puzzled.
But the old man in the video had already disappeared from the screen.
About half an hour later, the old man appeared once again on the screen in another video call, "Alright, Tian, welcome back!"
Yet the old man never mentioned anything about the so-called meeting gift.
About a minute later, the Elder Housekeeper Chen suddenly walked in and said, "Madam Chen, we have sent over the evidence of Zhou Quan's family's crimes. It's almost certain that they will spend their lives in prison..."
Upon hearing this, the entire hall fell into a dead silence.
Yang Tian was quite shocked inside; was this so-called meeting gift a bloodbath for the Zhou Family?
A simple phone call, and the Zhou Family vanished overnight?
Is this the terror of the Chen Family?
And the old man in the video said with a smile, "Tian, you'll get used to it gradually. Alright, I'll be back tomorrow... You, what are you doing here... ah..."
Just then, behind the old man on the video screen, appeared a man in black, masked clothing. He suddenly grabbed the old man, and the screen was filled with white static jumps.
"The master is in trouble..."
The Elder Housekeeper Chen's face changed drastically...
