The Rise of Dragon Son-in-Law
Chapter 360 - 350

Chapter 360: Chapter 350

"Ten billion, you’re fucking crazy about money, aren’t you?"

Lan Shao erupted in fury.

"Oh, so you mean Sisi isn’t worth ten billion?" Long Chen asked with a smile.

"You..."

Lan Shao was at a loss for words, his face turning red. "I... I don’t mean that, what I mean is..."

"You mean Sisi isn’t worth ten billion, no need to explain."

Long Chen cut Lan Shao off with a laugh.

Lan Shao’s face turned even redder and his neck thickened in anger as he shouted, "I didn’t say she’s not worth ten billion, it’s just that I don’t have ten billion."

"Oh, so you’re this poor and you still dare to pursue Mu Sisi?"

Long Chen said with disdain.

Lan Shao was dumbstruck, feeling that Long Chen had brought frustration to new heights.

"Talking to someone like you really is a waste of my time."

Lan Shao said through gritted teeth.

"You dare to call yourself ’my man’ in front of me?"

Long Chen narrowed his eyes slightly.

"So what if I do? If you can, just kill me."

Lan Shao shouted aloud.

"Killing you is certainly unnecessary, let me show you something."

Long Chen took out his phone, scrolled to the text message interface, and opened a bank balance message for Lan Shao to see.

After seeing it, Lan Shao was completely stunned.

Following that, Lan Shao’s face turned pale with fright. "You... you actually have so much..."

"Shh, keep it down, low-key."

Long Chen said with a mild laugh.

Lan Shao thought about how he had just been trying to pay this man to leave and couldn’t help feeling utterly ashamed.

Long Chen had a clear grasp of Lan Shao’s thoughts and said in a timely manner, "Whether it’s about money or not isn’t important, what matters is that love is consensual, wouldn’t you agree?"

"Yes, yes, yes." Lan Shao hastily said, "I was shallow, I’m truly sorry."

"It’s nothing serious, just don’t bother Mu Sisi from now on, can you do that?" Long Chen asked.

"I can, I’ll transfer schools tomorrow."

Lan Shao said in a rush.

"Think it over carefully, that’s all I have to say." Long Chen said.

"Alright, alright."

Lan Shao’s attitude had completely changed from his previous arrogance.

Then, Lan Shao turned and quickly walked away.

From that moment on, Lan Shao really never approached Mu Sisi again...

Seeing Lan Shao walk away, Mu Sisi was utterly astonished. "Dragon Bro, what on earth did you show him? Why did he suddenly become so timid?"

"Take a guess."

"I can’t guess, just tell me."

"It’s late, let’s go back and rest, I need to head home too." Long Chen waved his hand and quickly walked away.

Mu Sisi watched Long Chen’s retreating figure, feeling a little downhearted.

She had thought that Long Chen would take the initiative to ask for her phone number or WeChat, but he didn’t.

With this parting, amidst the vast sea of people, meeting again would be like searching for a needle in the ocean.

...

At that moment, Long Chen quickly arrived at the hotel where Wang Meng was staying.

Standing at the door, Long Chen pressed the doorbell.

The door soon opened, and Wang Meng stood there in her pajamas, her face lit up with surprise.

She looked very spirited, clearly not having gone to bed yet.

"You just opened the door without a second thought? Weren’t you afraid it was a bad guy?" Long Chen asked.

"I saw it was you through the peephole, so I opened it, why have you come back? Did your conscience get the better of you, planning to stay the night with me?" Wang Meng asked.

"Wishful thinking." Long Chen asked, "How do you find staying here, getting used to it?"

"What does it matter whether I’m accustomed to it or not? If you’re here, I’m used to it; without you, I feel incredibly lonely."

Wang Meng pouted, "So, can you please not leave?"

"I came back to keep you company," Long Chen smiled. "Go to sleep."

"Yay, you’re so nice, then let’s sleep."

Wang Meng climbed into bed, full of excitement.

But when she saw Long Chen lying down on the sofa, her ecstatic expression immediately fell: "You’re sleeping on the sofa?"

"Not on the sofa, so on you?"

"Okay."

"Stop kidding, hurry up and sleep." Long Chen closed his eyes.

Wang Meng bit her lip, hesitated to speak, and appeared slightly resentful, but ultimately she lay down quietly and closed her beautiful eyes.

In the middle of the night, Long Chen suddenly felt that something was off.

Opening his eyes, he found that Wang Meng had somehow snuggled into his embrace, sleeping very sweetly.

Long Chen was caught between laughter and tears, not having the heart to push her away, so he spent the night embraced by Wang Meng.

In the morning, when Wang Meng woke up, the first thing she saw was Long Chen looking back at her.

She was startled and hurriedly closed her eyes again.

"Still pretending?" Long Chen said sternly, "When did you climb onto the sofa last night? The bed was so comfortable, but you had to come and squeeze in with me. You really are something."

"No wonder I slept so well yesterday, it turns out I was in your arms."

Wang Meng murmured.

"Get up."

Long Chen sat up.

"Wait... wait a minute."

Wang Meng grabbed Long Chen.

"What’s up?"

"You brute, to hold a great beauty like me all night and do nothing? Are you sure you’re even capable?"

Wang Meng asked.

"I’m not capable?"

Long Chen said with a teasing smile, glancing purposefully at a particular part of his body.

It was the morning just after waking up, when a man is typically at his most imposing.

Wang Meng, led by Long Chen’s gaze, took a glance downward, then her face turned beet red: "You... you’re being indecent."

"Am I capable?" asked Long Chen.

"That... that’s not my problem."

Wang Meng turned her head away.

"Get up."

Long Chen took a deep breath, not wishing to continue bickering with Wang Meng.

Wang Meng couldn’t help but steal a few more glances, her heart nearly bursting out of her chest.

But at this time, Wang Meng felt timid, silently watching Long Chen go to freshen up.

Soon after, Long Chen came out from washing up briefly, and seeing Wang Meng still not dressed, he was somewhat astonished before chuckling, "You don’t need to go out anyway, wearing pajamas is just fine. I’m leaving now, remember what I told you, don’t run off."

"Wait, you... will you come back tonight?" Wang Meng asked.

"I don’t know; don’t expect it or wait for it. It won’t be too late to talk about tonight’s matters this evening."

With those parting words, Long Chen left.

Before long, Long Chen arrived at Great Xia Mansion.

The construction of Great Xia Mansion had reached its most critical moment.

Thousands of people were working feverishly, sweating profusely, and making rapid progress.

Xia Ling, too, arrived at the construction site and asked Long Chen about the previous night’s events.

Upon learning that Heavenly God Temple was nearly annihilated, Xia Ling took a while to come back to her senses, "Does this mean that Heavenly God Temple poses virtually no threat anymore?"

"The influence of Heavenly God Temple was never that threatening; it’s just ordinary people who feel fearful," Long Chen said with a smile.

"That’s good; finally, we can lead a peaceful life."

Xia Ling smiled.

"That might not be the case," said Long Chen. "Without Heavenly God Temple, who knows if some Heavenly Demon Hall or Ghost God Sect will pop up. We can’t let our guard down. In the future, both Dragon Shadow Group and Great Xia Mansion will become the centers of attention in Qianzhou, and if a force like Heavenly God Temple comes in, we’ll be the first to be hit."

"Are you saying that other forces have come in like Heavenly God Temple?"

Xia Ling asked anxiously.

"Yes," said Long Chen. "I’ve eradicated a dark force, and behind them, they have the support of Undying Mountain. I don’t know what Undying Mountain is, but it’s definitely nothing good. I have a strong premonition that this Undying Mountain will be the force we need to take seriously in our upcoming confrontations."
