The news that Xiao Chen returned to Xiao's Manor quickly spread.

People like Zhao Laomo and others knew that Xiao Chen was back when Xue Chunqiu and others came back.

"Third brother."

Before Zhao Lao Mo entered the door, he shouted.

"I miss you so much."

"..."

Xiao Chen looked at the old devil Zhao who came in. This old devil...his skin is itchy again?

"Ahem, um, Xiao Chen, I haven't seen you for a long time, why don't you miss me?"

Zhao Laomo noticed that Xiao Chen's eyes were not kind, he coughed dryly and did not dare to call "third brother" again.

"You are not a beauty, why do you miss me?"

Xiao Chen said calmly.

"It's vulgar, it's so vulgar, why do you only see beautiful women in your eyes?"

Zhao Lao Mo said with disdain.

"Haha, I am just a layman."

Xiao Chen smiled.

"It's good to be a common man, greedy for money and lustful."

"really."

Zhao Laomo nodded and sat down.

"Come, tell me, brother, what did you gain from this trip?"

"Didn't Lao Xue and the others say anything?"

Xiao Chen asked curiously.

"No, one by one, they said they would talk about it after you come back. They were very mysterious."

Zhao Laomo shook his head.

"Oh, old devil, is this what Lao Xue said? He said he wanted to know, and if I beat him, I would tell you... Why are you running away?"

As the words fell, Lei Gong came in from outside, with a playful smile on his face.

"..."

Zhao Laomo's face turned dark. He had no problem with his mind. How could he fight Xue Chunqiu?

"hehe."

Xiao Chen also laughed, this was Lao Xue's style.

Soon, Xue Chunqiu and the others also came, and everyone gathered together.

Xiao Chen looked around and saw that Fatty Chen was not there.

"Old Zhao, where is Fatty Chen?"

"He followed your grandfather to the Nangong family."

Zhao Laomo said.

"who?"

Xiao Chen frowned, this old devil always keeps talking, why is he still cursing?

"Nangong Bufan, isn't he your grandfather?"

Zhao Laomo asked.

"..."

Xiao Chen was stunned, yes, it was true.

"Now, the Nangong Family has released news that Nangong Ling will return to the Nangong Family..."

When Zhao Laomo said this, he curled his lips.

"These famous families are nothing but trouble. No matter what you do, why should you care what others think."

"Haha, this is why you are called the 'Old Devil'."

Xiao Chen smiled, sometimes, when he is out of place, he becomes a ‘devil’.

"There's nothing wrong with being a devil."

Zhao Laomo also chuckled.

"It's more comfortable than your common people."

Everyone was chatting, and Xiao Chen's mind relaxed.

Outside, it's hard to do this.

This is home, and...everything you see at first glance is all your own people.

The feeling is completely different.

"There are a lot fewer people than before I left."

Xiao Chen was smoking a cigarette. On his way back just now, Qin Lan told him that Zhuge Xixi had also returned to the Zhuge Family.

Longshan's grand formation, including all construction, has been completed and is just waiting for him to come back for acceptance.

Zhuge Xixi also took advantage of this time to return to the Zhuge family. After all, he had not been back for a while.

Before this girl left, she specifically said that when Xiao Chen came back, he would inform her that she would be back as soon as possible.

"Next, I have to go to the Zhuge Family and the Nangong Family..."

Xiao Chen thought of something and muttered again.

Both the Zhuge family and the Nangong family have invited him.

Especially the Nangong family, Nangong Ling's return to the Nangong family is a big event, he must go.

Furthermore, he went to the Ye family with the 'betrothal gift'. Because of this, the Nangong family had some opinions and had been watching this matter.

After all, the Nangong family and the Ye family are both twelfth aristocratic families, so he can't favor one over the other.

The aristocratic family...is about face!

It was almost noon when Hua Yixuan came back.

"Xiao Chen..."

Hua Yixuan looked at Xiao Chen with a low eyebrow.

"hehe."

When Xiao Chen saw this, he couldn't help but laugh. She had never been like this in front of him before.

"You know you're wrong?"

"Yeah, I got it."

Hua Yixuan nodded.

"who I am?"

Xiao Chen looked at her and asked.

"ah?"

Hua Yixuan was stunned for a moment.

"What's the meaning?"

"I am your man, you are my woman...I should protect you, you know?"

Xiao Chen said seriously.

Listening to Xiao Chen's words, Hua Yixuan felt warm in her heart and nodded.

"Call your grandpa more often. He doesn't know what's going on here, but he's worried and won't say it."

Xiao Chen said to Hua Yixuan again.

"good."

Hua Yixuan nodded.

Later, Xiao Chen chatted with Hua Yixuan about cvk enzyme and laboratory matters.

Although he had chatted with Qin Lan and the others before, he didn't know as much as Hua Yixuan.

After what happened last time, Hua Yixuan is now completely in control of the laboratory, including her mentor Feng Mei, who will also listen to her.

This was also the result Xiao Chen wanted at that time. There could only be one voice in the laboratory, and that was Hua Yixuan.
