C76 (2/2)

”My Chu Clan has many businesses, isn't it normal for my wife to not understand this?” Chu Lingyu sneered.

With just a glance, that person shut his mouth tactfully and kept retreating backwards.

Very good, he was very satisfied with this result.

Chu Lingyu walked in front of them, her arms around Xu Chencan's waist.

”How could you create such a big battle formation? If it wasn't for the fact that I'm strong enough to handle it, I would have been scared to death by you.” Xu Chencan glared at her in displeasure.

It was all Chu Lingyu's fault. After saying so, she looked at Chu Lingyu with hidden bitterness. Who had this guy offended? How could he be treated like this?

”I just wanted to give you a surprise.” he explained, glaring at the flunkies.

Seeing his childish side, Xu Chencan let out a helpless sigh and followed him inside.

The rest of the group followed behind them. Watching the interaction between the two, they were all at a loss. It seemed that Chu Lingyu had previously said that Xu Chencan was his wife.

When they reached the private room, Chu Lingyu waited for everyone to come in before letting them take their seats.

”Everyone, I'm very happy to see you take care of my wife. As for those untruthful words, let's not say anything today and just eat in peace.” Chu Lingyu smiled and looked around.

Imperceptibly, everyone felt a strong sense of pressure, and some even lowered their heads in guilt.

They had indeed said some bad things about Xu Chencan today, and were currently worrying about this Hong Gate banquet.

”Since we are all guests here, there is no need to be so formal.” Seeing their uneasiness, Chu Lingyu reminded them again.

Xu Chencan looked at Chu Lingyu, who was standing beside him, and smirked.

Sensing that someone was looking at her, Chu Lingyu turned to look at her, ”What's wrong, is there something wrong?”

”Nope.” Xu Chencan immediately shook her head, her face slowly turning red. She squeezed Chu Lingyu's hand under the table and said, ”I just think you're very handsome.”

Even if they were just teaming up, Chu Lingyu would still think so much for him. Xu Chencan was so touched that he did not know what to say.

”Dr. Xu, have you been married for very long?” Suddenly, someone couldn't help but ask curiously.

Xu Chencan looked at Chu Lingyu, not knowing how to respond.

”We were married not long ago, so my wife kept a low profile. She didn't want me to disturb her work, so she didn't say anything.” Chu Lingyu took the initiative to help Xu Chencan answer.

The man nodded, as if he wanted to ask something else.

Xu Chencan suddenly became nervous. She knew that she was wrong to say so much. She didn't like it when people questioned her privacy.

The two men who had been looking at Xu Chencan saw her resistance and glared at her in dissatisfaction.

Xue Tianning coughed fakely and joked, ”Doctor Zhao, today is our party. Don't focus on the couple.”

Having been reminded, Dr. Zhao lowered his head in fear and carefully drank his drink with both hands.

Xu Chencan nodded gratefully at Xue Tianning, but Chu Lingyu's expression suddenly turned cold. He put his hand on Xu Chencan's shoulder in dissatisfaction and looked at Xue Tianning provocatively.

Xue Tianning rolled his eyes, too lazy to bother with his childish behavior.

Seeing that he was ignoring her, Chu Lingyu turned to Xu Chencan and warned him in a low voice, ”I don't want to make eye contact with him.”
