Rebirth of the Cultivation Devil
Chapter 95 - 095: Come Empty-Handed?

Chapter 95: Chapter 095: Come Empty-Handed?

Su Mu’s temperament is ethereal, more delicate than a flower; naturally, this needs no further elaboration.

Otherwise, Xia Moxuan from the Xia Family wouldn’t have been interested in Su Mu.

However, besides Ye Qingfeng’s starry eyes and his stern appearance, there was nothing that the Su Family found acceptable about him.

Otherwise, he would barely qualify to step through the Su Family’s door.

"Could it be that Su Mu went to Jiangnan City to become a teacher just to find young lads at school? How pure..."

Fourth Aunt Su Xian sarcastically remarked.

Moreover, she was looking at Han Mengyun when she said it.

About the relationship between Su Mu and Ye Qingfeng,

Naturally, it was Su Xu who spoke of it.

"This kind of person looks just like a hooligan; he even injured our Langfei."

Su Yan also glared venomously at Ye Qingfeng.

As for Feng Langfei, it went without saying.

Currently, his cheeks were swollen like a pig’s head, only able to be wrapped in white gauze.

Third Uncle Su Ji said nothing, but the disdain in his eyes clearly showed he didn’t approve of Ye Qingfeng.

Su Xuan, however, tightly held Chen Yixi’s arm.

Though Ye Qingfeng’s appearance was good,

His overall attire and aura couldn’t compare to her fiancé.

This gave Su Xuan a significant psychological advantage.

After all, from childhood to adulthood, whether in grades or looks,

Su Mu always firmly overshadowed her.

Now that Su Mu found a boyfriend like this, how could Su Xuan not be proud?

"Mom, this is my boyfriend, Ye Qingfeng."

Ignoring the crowd’s gaze,

Su Mu held Ye Qingfeng’s hand, walked to Han Mengyun’s side, and affectionately called out.

"Good, good, my daughter has great taste."

Han Mengyun smiled at Ye Qingfeng.

It was the kind of loving gaze from an elder.

Su Mu evidently inherited good genes from Han Mengyun.

Now, although Han Mengyun had reached middle age, she possessed a dignified and elegant demeanor.

Previously, no matter how the Su Family people mocked Han Mengyun, she never opened her mouth.

That was because she felt her daughter’s happiness should be decided by herself.

There was no need to sacrifice for the family, nor to marry Xia Moxuan to gain benefits.

"Hello, Auntie!"

Ye Qingfeng responded with a greeting.

"Second Grandpa, Second Aunt, Third Uncle, Fourth Aunt, this is my boyfriend, Ye Qingfeng, not Xia Moxuan from the Xia Family."

Afterward, Su Mu turned again to face these direct relatives of the Su Family.

Ever since her father’s passing, these aunts and uncles had been eyeing the Su Family’s business.

Usually, they didn’t miss any chance to bully her and her mother.

Now, they wanted to force her into marriage, so naturally, Su Mu didn’t show any pleasant expression.

Su Mu kept all these grievances in her heart.

And Ye Qingfeng just stood aside, a smile on his face.

He didn’t greet any of the Su Family people.

"Hmph! Su Mu, you are becoming increasingly disrespectful. How dare you speak to your elders like that."

Su Yan, with her heavily made-up face, showed a touch of anger as she reprimanded.

"Is this your boyfriend? He has no manners at all; how could he possibly be worthy of marrying into our Su Family?"

Su Ji chuckled coldly.

Ye Qingfeng greeted Han Mengyun but ignored them.

This made Su Ji feel challenged.

And in Su Ji’s words, there was a sense of belittling Ye Qingfeng.

Even if you are Su Mu’s boyfriend, you could only marry into the Su Family.

Moreover, you don’t even have the qualification to marry in.

This is simply worthless.

"Forget it, a poor boy like him probably grew up in slums, how could he possibly understand the rules of our wealthy families."

Fourth Aunt Su Xian said with a fake smile.

For Ye Qingfeng’s rude behavior, these middle-aged elders of the Su Family criticized one after another.

With these uncles’ and aunts’ successive bombardment,

Su Mu couldn’t get a word in edgewise.

Her face was flushed with anger.

"You don’t deserve my understanding of manners!"

Ye Qingfeng’s cold, indifferent voice resounded.

Wow!

This sentence relieved Su Mu but infuriated the Su Family crowd.

Not deserving?

This arrogant boy dared to speak such nonsense in the Su Family.

"You’re looking for trouble; this is the Su Family, not a place for you to act recklessly."

Third Uncle Su Ji rebuked angrily.

His eyes also flared with anger.

He reached out, preparing to take action against Ye Qingfeng.

"Su Ji, stop. Our Su Family is not a bunch of savages."

At this time, Su Xun, who had been sitting at the head of the hall without speaking, finally spoke, his old voice stopping Su Ji.

"Second Uncle!"

Su Ji looked puzzled.

"Are my words meaningless?"

Old Sir Su Xun’s aged yet steady voice came through.

"With Father’s serious illness, naturally, I must heed Second Uncle’s words."

Su Ji replied respectfully.

With that, the originally outraged crowd of the Su Family fell silent.

After all, Su Xun was the acting head of the Su Family for now.

No one dared to openly defy him.

"Guests at the door should bring gifts; coming empty-handed is disrespectful to the host."

Su Xun’s words lacked anger but struck sharply at the core issue like a blade.

"Second Grandpa is right, Su Mu. Though the Su Family isn’t some massively powerful clan, your boyfriend coming here for the first time without bringing any gift is truly impolite!"

Upon hearing Su Xun’s words, Su Xuan’s eyes twinkled as she charmingly chastised.

"Xuan’er is right, Yixi came to the Su Family this time with lots of gifts."

Fourth Aunt Su Xian immediately followed her daughter’s words.

"Just some small things, nothing worth mentioning."

Chen Yixi adjusted his branded suit, then waved his hand nonchalantly.

He naturally cooperated wholeheartedly with the Su Xian mother and daughter.

"Since Yixi brought gifts, why not let the elders have a look?"

Su Xian smiled again, clearly very satisfied with her future son-in-law.

"Exactly! Yixi, the gifts don’t matter as much as the thought. You should show them!"

Second Aunt Su Yan also smiled at Chen Yixi.

A wealthy and noble young master like Chen Yixi was exactly the kind of son-in-law they desired.

"Indeed, much better than some people who came empty-handed."

The Su Family let out a cold laugh.

The mockery in their words was unmistakable.

At this moment, Chen Yixi gazed toward Su Xun, seated at the head of the hall.

"Go ahead and show them!"

Old Sir Su Xun nodded slowly in approval.

"Then allow me to humbly present these modest gifts."

Saying so, Chen Yixi brought out a box from behind him.

"Uncles, Aunts, and Second Grandpa, I brought some tea, some red wine, and a wristwatch."

Chen Yixi presented the gifts, pretending to be embarrassed.

As if the gifts were not presentable.

But it was obvious that the gifts were likely not only adequate but possibly quite precious.
