Beautiful CEO's Super Expert

At ten o'clock at night, the nightlife in Jianghai was just beginning. From a distance, neon lights flickered everywhere, and the young men and women who had stayed indoors during the day had also started to hit the streets.

Sitting in the car, Su Chen rolled down the window and watched the parade of long, bare legs passing by, finding the sight extremely pleasing to the eye.

"That thing is real, right?" Lin Ruoxue, who had been silent, suddenly spoke.

"What are you talking about?" Su Chen turned his head in confusion.

"I mean, the blue diamond you showed at dinner, it's real, isn't it? Ruohan wasn't wrong, was she?"

Lin Ruoxue tidied up her windswept and somewhat disheveled hair and said nonchalantly.

"Do you believe it?" Su Chen asked indifferently and then turned his head back toward the window.

Do you believe it? Lin Ruoxue didn't know. If it had been before, she would have definitely said she didn't believe, but now, she was a bit unsure.

"Grandpa wants me to arrange something for you to do at the company, too. He says it's not good for you to keep going without a proper job."

After a while, Lin Ruoxue spoke again.

"No need, I've found a job today."

"What job?"

Lin Ruoxue looked at Su Chen with some surprise, obviously not expecting him to take the initiative to find a job.

"Driver."

"You can drive?"

"Is that strange?"

Su Chen closed the car window casually and said.

Yes, it wasn't strange to know how to drive. It was only because Lin Ruoxue's knowledge of him had been virtually nil before that she was surprised.

Since he had already found a job, Lin Ruoxue didn't say anything more.

Just at that moment, a somewhat strange ringtone sounded, and Lin Ruoxue couldn't help but be curious. This was the first time she had heard Su Chen's phone ring.

It was weird when you think about it. During the more than half a year they had lived together, Lin Ruoxue seemed to have never heard Su Chen's phone ring, which made her wonder who was calling.

Lin Ruoxue turned to look at Su Chen and noticed that his face had taken on an unusual color, as if he was deliberately suppressing his emotions.

"Stop the car; I have something to do. Just drop me off at the roadside," Su Chen said, pulling out his phone to look but not immediately answering.

"Okay."

Lin Ruoxue slowly stopped the car and, after letting Su Chen out, she drove away.

"Whose call is it that's so secretive?" Lin Ruoxue murmured softly. She realized her husband seemed to be becoming more and more mysterious.

Su Chen watched Lin Ruoxue drive away before taking a deep breath and then answering the phone.

"Hall Master, I knew you hadn't died. I just knew, you wouldn't die," came an incredibly excited voice as soon as the call connected.

"I'm fine, Lone Wolf, how are the brothers doing? How's the situation at the Temple?"

Although Su Chen had always restrained himself from thinking about the past, it was, after all, the result of his life's effort; to say he didn't care would be a lie.

"I called you precisely to discuss this matter," Lone Wolf's voice sounded somewhat grave over the phone, "After you disappeared, Tang Gang took over the Nether Temple. However, because your prestige is so high and the brothers sensed something unclean about his involvement in the affair, they have been reluctant to accept him."

"He had no choice, so yesterday he already left the Temple with a few of his confidants in secret, which is why we dared to contact you. If he knew you were still alive, he definitely wouldn't let you be." Lone Wolf continued, "There's a rumor that there's a problem with your Dantian, is that true? If so, you should hurry back to the Temple, it's too dangerous for you outside."

Su Chen could feel Lone Wolf's concern for him and he paused before saying:

"Don't worry, I have a sense of it, who's in charge at the Temple now? Is it still Demon?"

"Yes, everything is still being done according to the rules you set. In your absence, the Service Hall, composed of Demon, Eniel, and Jester, has taken joint responsibility," Lone Wolf replied, "They asked me to make this call. Us old brothers never believed you were dead, and sure enough... Hahaha~~"

"Hold on, for now, let's not let them know about me. If they ask, tell them you couldn't get through."

Su Chen understood Lone Wolf's feelings, but he still decided to keep the news of his survival to himself for the time being.

"But, Hall Master, we all miss you very much, especially Eniel. If it weren't for us holding her back, she would have gone after Tang Gang recklessly."

"Make sure she's stopped, don't let her act rashly. Tang Gang himself isn't frightening, but the power behind him is not to be underestimated and isn't something she can handle."

Su Chen urgently conveyed this with solemnity, although he was still unsure of who the true mastermind behind the affair was, one thing was certain: the opponent was definitely not an ordinary Dark World organization.

Only an organization that could mobilize five to six Qi Refinement Peak experts in one go is almost unseen in the Dark World, not to mention the numerous Late Stage Qi Refinement experts.

It was precisely because he sensed the deep waters of the situation that Su Chen didn't dare to act recklessly; he must first recover his own Cultivation before dealing with the affair.

"I understand, so the old brothers, Demon and Jester, have decided to confirm your whereabouts first before discussing further matters." Lone Wolf nodded over the phone, "However, Hall Master, you know Eniel's temper…"

At these words, Su Chen couldn't help but reveal a wry smile; he certainly understood the temper of Eniel, the princess of an old European royal family—if she truly lost her temper, there was nobody under heaven who could stop her, except perhaps for Su Chen himself.

"I know, if there's any special situation, contact me anytime."

"Alright, I understand." Lone Wolf finally breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, but then he hesitantly added, "Hall Master, there's something else I need to report to you..."

"What's the matter?"

Su Chen frowned slightly as he detected the seriousness in Lone Wolf's voice.

"When Tang Gang fled yesterday, he took many documents from the laboratory with him; it's clear that he had been planning this for a long time. We couldn't discover it in time, and when we did, it was already too late."

"What? The laboratory's documents were stolen?!"

The usually composed Su Chen suddenly raised his voice in questioning, his tone clearly tense.

"I'm sorry, Hall Master, this is our responsibility."

"This isn't your fault; there's no need for self-blame."

Su Chen understood that Tang Gang and the forces behind him must have been plotting for a long time; with the thoughtful planning against the unaware, it was inevitable that Demon and the others would not react in time.

"Hall Master, is there something particularly important in the laboratory?"

Lone Wolf asked cautiously, his tone tinged with trepidation, as it was rare for Su Chen to have such an extreme reaction.

"Just some old documents, nothing particularly significant," Su Chen reassured him, "Okay, that's all for now, we'll be in touch if anything comes up."

"Hall Master, are you really not coming back now?" Lone Wolf asked, a touch plaintively.

"I still have some things to handle here; we'll talk once I'm done." Su Chen said, and then he hung up the phone.
