That was why something like this was happening.
Chen Haoâs brain was in overdrive.
Obviously, it wasnât because of the sudden marriage between himself and a beautiful girl.
Instead, Chen Hao was thinking of the feasibility of this plan.
Obviously, this was an almost heavenly level of help from Yu Jinxiang. If Chen Hao married into the Yu family, then getting the King Ginseng and ending his nomadic lifestyle would be just around the corner.
However, could he just marry a woman he had just met?
Was he willing to do this to Su Tongxin?
âHowâs that? Hehe. But donât be too happy too soon. You can only be married to her for a year, and after that, you two have to get divorced. However, Yu family will give you a lot of money. I think itâs a great idea, no? This way, you can become the son-in-law of the Yu family!â Yu Jinxiang said.
âI agree!â Chen Hao lifted his head up as he spoke.
He had to become stronger so that he could have higher chances of saving Su Tongxin and going against Mo Changkong.
If he couldnât even do this, then everything else would go to waste.
That was why he answered with no hesitation.
âHuh? I havenât even told you the terms and conditions, and you already agreed?â Yu Jinxiang pursed her lips as a hint of contempt appeared in her eyes.
Hmph! I thought you were a righteous and noble man, but as it turns out, youâre just another money-
hungry person.
âThere are terms and conditions?â Chen Hao asked in surprise.
âOf course! Actually, theyâre not very complicated. You just have to understand that you marrying my sister is more like an employment contract. There are some things you cannot even think about doing!
This is the main thing!â
âHehe, I understand. You mean that this marriage is purely on the surface, right?â Chen Hao smiled bitterly.
This was exactly what he wanted to happen since the beginning.
âBingo! Thatâs exactly what I mean. If thatâs not a problem to you, then sign this contract! We will have the wedding within the next two days. We have to do it quickly because my mom will be back from abroad soon. My dad wonât have an opinion about this, but my mom will definitely oppose it! Thatâs why we must rush this.â
Chen Hao had no idea what these sisters were up to.
However, he didnât really want to know, either.
Right then, he signed the contract.
Seven days later.
âToday, my classmates from abroad are returning and we will be having a gathering. Theyâre all people who have seen a lot from life, so try to keep your mouth zipped when we get there. Do you understand me?â
Today morning, Chen Hao had just climbed into the passengerâs seat when the driver of the car, an aloof lady, spoke.
Her voice was clear and cold, almost as if she didnât have an ounce of emotion.
This woman was none other than Yu Jinxiangâs older sister, Yu Jinfei.
As of today, Chen Hao had already been married to her for three days.
He had moved in to live with the Yu family, and became the Yu familyâs hired son-in-law.
Except that, unless it was needed, Yu Jinfei wouldnât talk to Chen Hao at all, much less look at him in the eye.
Chen Hao understood.
In her heart, Chen Hao was only a tool to her.
However, Chen Hao couldnât do anything.
âI got it!â Chen Hao nodded.
Very quickly, Yu Jinfei had driven them to their destination.
It was a high-class restaurant in Tian City.
âYu Fei, youâre here!â
When she walked into the room that was booked, a few girls and boys stood up.
Amongst them, there was a young man who was dressed extravagantly and had on a golden wristwatch. He walked toward Yu Jinfei.
âYep!â
âYu Jinfei, I heard that you got married once I returned to the country. Whatâs more, heâs a teacher or something, right? Is this him?â he pointed at Chen Hao and said. The young manâs eyes were filled with some anger.
âYes, this is my husband, Chen Hao!â
Yu Jinfei held onto Chen Haoâs arms and introduced, âChen Hao, this is my college classmate, Yin Chao!â
âHello!â
Following the manners that Yu Jinfei had taught him beforehand, Chen Hao reached his hand out, wanting to shake Yin Chaoâs hand.
âYu Jinfei, I really donât know what you were thinking. Even though you broke up with him, there are so many otherâ¦â Yin Chao said angrily.
After seeing Yu Jinfeiâs warning stare, he stopped talking.
Clearly, Yin Chao was an admirer of Yu Jinfeiâs, so he naturally ignored Chen Hao.
Just like him, a lot of Yu Jinfeiâs classmates were treating Chen Hao with hostility.
Almost nobody spoke to Chen Hao.
At the same time, a few girls threw Chen Hao contemptuous glances from time to time, as if they were trying to say that he was nowhere near deserving of being with someone like Yu Jinfei.
âYin Chao, just take a look at that punk! Who knew that Yu Jinfei would marry a guy like this?
Apparently, heâs a professor at one of the universities in Tian City. What a joke. What was Yu Jinfei thinking?â
In the washroom, some boys were talking among themselves unhappily.
After all, Yu Jinfei was so beautiful, so which boy hadnât had a crush on her before? Especially for Yin Chao, who had always liked Yu Jinfei.
However, Yu Jinfei always had someone else on her mind, so no one else stood a chance.
However, now that a chance had finally come, Yu Jinfei had married someone out of the blue! Not to mention that she had married a fool!
After all, all of them were from a high-class background, and Chen Haoâs job as a university lecturer was not impressive to them in the slightest.
Another boy said, âHmph! Exactly, and with him around, we canât even talk to Yu Jinfei about some things we want to talk about. Him being here is just such a nuisance!â
âSince everyone feels that way, then we should make him leave! We should teach him a lessonâ our gatherings arenât open to someone like him!â Yin Chao sneered.
After that, he whispered something to the other boys.
Then, they all returned to the room.
âSigh. We havenât had a drink with the groom after Yu Jinfei got married. Chen Hao, Yu Jinfei is a goddess in all our hearts, and you managed to get her all to yourself. Letâs have a drink to celebrate!â
Yin Chao was behaving abnormally, smiling at Chen Hao.
The other boys glanced at each other and looked at Chen Hao, smiling coldly.
âAlright! Of course we need to have a drink. What should we have?â Chen Hao smiled as he spoke.
âAlright, I just happen to have brought a box of good liquor from home! I already got someone to retrieve it. Letâs start off with some good Chinese spirits!â
Yin Chao didnât expect that Chen Hao would be so frank and straightforward.
âAlright, thatâs good! I like Chinese spirits!â Chen Hao laughed.
Yu Jinfei, on the other hand, obviously knew what Yin Chao and the others wanted to do.
At first, she wanted to remind Chen Hao to not lose his manners.
But seeing him behave so recklessly, Yu Jinfei decided to give up.
She would just let him drink until he couldnât walk straight!
Yu Jinfei turned her head to the other side and saw one of Yin Chaoâs underlings carrying two boxes of Chinese liquor.
âHehe, Chen Hao, let me tell you a secret. The family of this good brother of mine runs an alcohol business, and he practically grew up in a wine tank. Heâll take the lead and weâll just follow. Letâs enjoy ourselves. Thatâs not a problem, right?â Yin Chao smiled.
âNot at all!â Chen Hao kept his smile on his face and nodded.
However, no one noticed the streak of wickedness that glinted within Chen Haoâs eyes. After training his internal strength with Uncle Qin, Chen Hao had long since became immune to the effects of alcohol.
Chen Hao was even immune to some forms of poison, let alone these Chinese spirits...
Mainly, Chen Hao had seen how competitive Yin Chao and the others were. If he just accepted their taunts and bowed down to them, that wouldnât be like him. Since they wanted to play, he would give them a good game...
