Chapter 1376 - 1374: Did You Indulge Yourself?
Among the three kinds of unfilial behavior, having no descendants is the worst.
If you don’t have a wife, where are the descendants supposed to come from?
This could be considered settling one of life’s big issues.
The three of them were all very happy.
When they walked out of the room, everyone outside was waiting.
Seeing the three of them come out, they all looked a bit puzzled, their eyes asking questions.
Yang Chen smiled slightly and announced loudly, "From today on, Purple Cultivator will no longer be a lone wolf. He’s got a girlfriend! And they’ll be getting married soon! And yes, you guessed right, that person is Sun Yue! From today on, Sun Yue is also part of our big family!"
Everyone was stunned for a second, then burst into warm applause.
"Congratulations!"
"Congrats, you two!"
"This really counts as a perfect match!"
"Have lots of kids early?"
People were saying all kinds of things, but the main point was that everyone was sending them sincere blessings.
They all understood their own identities, and knew how hard it was to find a stable partner, how much resolve it took.
They all wanted to find someone, but they just couldn’t.
Sure, back when this bunch of animals were at Longyu Group, they’d caused plenty of trouble with the company’s women, but the truth was, they only dared to mess around, not to make promises, and even less to really invest themselves.
If real feelings got involved, it’d be bad for the women and bad for them; it could even hurt the women.
So they understood just how much determination it took for Purple Cultivator to make this decision.
Gao Hong, on the other hand, pulled a long face and grumbled, "Why do all the good cabbages get eaten by pigs?"
Back in Ningchuan, Gao Hong had actually had his eye on Sun Yue. After all, Sun Yue was very pretty, tall, always working out, extremely attractive.
Unfortunately, Gao Hong just didn’t have the guts to go after her.
Plus with Gao Hong’s looks... odds are even if he did chase her, she wouldn’t have been interested.
Yang Chen laughed. "That’s what you get for being slow. She’s Purple Cultivator’s woman now, so whatever thoughts you’ve got, drop them fast!"
Gao Hong glanced at the two of them and said helplessly, "I really don’t know what virtue this punk accumulated in his last life to land such a great woman!"
Those words made both their hearts swell with joy.
Being envied like that was the best feeling.
"Alright, everyone, don’t just stand around. Go do what you’re supposed to do. The lovebirds are in the honeymoon phase, let’s not bother them!" Yang Chen said.
"Got it!"
"Disperse! Don’t be third wheels!"
"Yeah, let’s stop eating dog food here."
"Shame on you two, this is animal abuse! We’re all single dogs here!"
...
Everyone joked as they scattered.
Purple Cultivator and Sun Yue were both pretty embarrassed by the teasing, but inside they were delighted.
The two of them walked off hand in hand.
They still had work to do.
And it was exactly because they worked together that the spark of love had been struck.
There’s a saying that feelings grow over time, and it really isn’t wrong. Only after long-term contact can you get to know the other person more deeply. Once you’ve gotten to know them and still want to keep digging deeper, that means you’ve probably already fallen in love with them.
If two people aren’t together, the chances of falling in love are actually quite small.
After walking only a few steps, Sun Yue finally recovered herself, stopped, and looked at Purple Cultivator. "You said back in the Lijia Continent, after finishing missions, you liked to let yourself go?"
"Huh?" Purple Cultivator froze, and a layer of cold sweat instantly broke out on his forehead.
Sun Yue stared at Purple Cultivator with icy eyes, her voice so cold it sounded like ice chips were falling, "You said you liked to let yourself go. Tell me, what exactly did you mean by ’letting yourself go’?"
Purple Cultivator’s calves trembled in fear. He rushed to explain, "D-don’t get the wrong idea, I—I meant drinking!"
"Drinking? You didn’t do anything else?" Sun Yue didn’t buy it at all and kept pressing.
"Nothing! Absolutely nothing! What else could I do besides drink? Does playing games count?" Purple Cultivator kept playing dumb.
Sun Yue stopped pressing, grabbed Purple Cultivator’s arm, and said, "Come on! We’re going to draw blood and run some tests! In the Lijia Continent, nine out of ten people have something. If you messed around there, don’t blame me for turning on you!"
Purple Cultivator turned his head toward Yang Chen in despair, silently begging for help.
Yang Chen shrugged, indicating there was nothing he could do.
This was just the beginning; the days ahead were still long.
Yang Chen silently observed three minutes of mourning for Purple Cultivator in his heart.
He could see things clearly enough.
After all, Purple Cultivator was also one of Ye Xin’s men.
Could someone under Ye Xin be a simple character?
Since Purple Cultivator chose this woman himself, he’d have to marry her home even if he was crying!
Thinking about regretting it? No way in hell!
"Mm... sharing the suffering is what makes you real brothers." A wicked smile tugged at the corner of Yang Chen’s lips.
Choosing a secret agent as your wife meant the days ahead would not be easy.
Want to secretly do something or hide something? That’d be like committing a crime right under her nose. You pull it off with your front foot, she’ll drag it into the light with her back foot!
In this life... he could forget about playing little tricks.
If she kept things tight, private money? What’s that? It simply doesn’t exist!
...
Back in the room.
Meng Po said to Yang Chen, "Penglai Island is basically fully built now and completely under our control. What else do we need?"
"We need time." Yang Chen sat on the sofa, comfortably leaning back against the chair, and propped his feet up on the footrest in front of the sofa.
Seeing this, Meng Po immediately came over to massage Yang Chen.
Yang Chen was startled and quickly pulled his feet back. "What are you doing?"
"Giving you a massage!" Meng Po grabbed his leg and put it back on the footrest, kneading as she said, "I’ve been studying massage techniques lately. You taught me some tuina before, and now I want to try it out. See if the pressure is okay."
"It’s good! Feels great!" Yang Chen leaned back in satisfaction, eyes narrowing in comfort.
"How’s the investigation on the deep-sea cave going? Any leads?" Yang Chen reclined in the chair, taking a light breath, his voice lazy.
He hadn’t exactly been exhausted by the voyage, but having someone massage him, letting all his muscles relax—that was extremely pleasant.
Meng Po massaged as she said, "We’re in the middle of building equipment. The cave’s gravitational pull is too strong, so we need better machines. But the research on the outer area is basically done. Based on carbon testing, the cave can be traced back to the Triassic period. As for what it actually is, we still need to verify."
"That long ago?" Yang Chen was shocked.
So that meant this cave had existed for over a hundred million years?
The history... was simply too ancient.
But after so many tectonic movements, the cave still existing was a bit too unbelievable.
Still, the world is big and full of wonders, so Yang Chen didn’t think too much of it.
"I’ll go take a look at the lab later, check on the situation and the progress." Yang Chen said lazily.
"Yes!"
"Also, once you’ve sorted out the Yun family’s data, hand it over to Zhao Feiyang to deal with. He’s the professional at this; you don’t need to worry about it."
"Okay!"
"In the next couple of days, once I finish dealing with some matters on Penglai Island, you’ll come back with me. I’ve got some plans that need your help to execute."
"Okay!"
Meng Po nodded earnestly.
Being able to handle things for Yang Chen, she would naturally give everything she had, even unto death!
