My Brilliant CEO Wife

Chapter 825 - 826: The Overbearing Yun Shiyi

It is said that Hua Qiang has already reached the Middle Stage of the Fifth Grade, and Hua An is even more terrifying, having already reached the Late Stage of the Fifth Grade, infinitely close to the Peak of Fifth Grade!The most important thing is that the Xiao Family's financial resources currently can't match the Hua Family's. If this marriage alliance succeeds, perhaps they can warm their relations a bit, but if they directly refuse, then the Xiao Family's days will become difficult!

"Yes, Father, Qiang'Er just returned from cultivation abroad and heard that Xiao Mei is back. The first thing he did was to prepare to rush here, and he even specially prepared many betrothal gifts!" Hua Haojing also hurriedly persuaded, after all, Hua Qiang is her nephew!

If Hua Qiang can marry the Seductive Snake and take the Seductive Snake's primal yin, he will definitely be able to cultivate with half the effort!

Xiao Erhai, Xiao Sanhai, and others, after hearing Xiao Zhenye's words, were also dumbfounded, completely unable to understand why Xiao Zhenye would suddenly make such a decision!

They had already made arrangements; as long as the Seductive Snake successfully marries into the family they were in contact with, they would receive a huge reward!

So, the two brothers exchanged a look and unanimously advised against it, accompanied by their families!

"What decision I make, do you need to meddle? This Xiao Family is still under my control. If you want to take charge of the Xiao Family, you have to wait until after I'm dead!"

Xiao Zhenye, who has been bold and decisive all his life, experienced many major events. Upon hearing Xiao Dahai and others actually daring to question his decision, he immediately glared at them with anger!

Seeing Xiao Zhenye angry, everyone, including Xiao Dahai, was instantly stunned. They quickly said they didn't dare and bowed their heads, not daring to meet Xiao Zhenye's eyes!

Although within the Xiao Family, the three brothers Xiao Dahai, Xiao Erhai, and Xiao Sanhai have significant authority, even when outside, people from other families have to respectfully call them First Uncle, Second Uncle, and Third Uncle!

But inside the Xiao Family, there is truly only one person in charge, and that is Xiao Zhenye!

Xiao Zhenye usually doesn't bother with affairs, leaving everything to the three brothers to handle. After all, it's impossible for the Xiao Family to continue growing if he's the only one in charge. The three brothers need to develop their skills in managing affairs.

"Hmph, I don't care which family you agreed to; immediately go and decline for me, otherwise, don't blame me for punishing you with the family law!" Xiao Zhenye coldly snorted, then turned and left the main hall!

The Seductive Snake and Yun Hao saw this and quickly followed!

Domineering, this old master is simply too domineering. This is what a patriarch should be like!

In contrast, Yun Hao suddenly felt that Mu Haikui and Long Shaoyang, those two patriarchs, were just weaklings, disgracing the title of patriarch!

After following Xiao Zhenye out of the hall, Yun Hao and his companion arrived at Xiao Zhenye's courtyard!

The Xiao Family's large courtyard, to be precise, is a vast estate, where each member has their own private courtyard. Of course, servants don't have this privilege!

"Xiao Mei, you wait outside for a moment. I have a few words to speak with Yun Hao!" After arriving at Xiao Zhenye's courtyard and entering the room, Xiao Zhenye softly instructed the Seductive Snake!

"Grandfather..." The Seductive Snake was worried, afraid that Xiao Zhenye and Yun Hao might start fighting. She didn't want to see either of them getting hurt!

"Don't worry, I just have some things to talk over with him, I won't lay a hand on him!" Naturally, Xiao Zhenye saw the Seductive Snake's concern and thus understood a principle: a grown woman can't be kept at home!

Yun Hao followed Xiao Zhenye into the room, noticing the slightly old-fashioned furnishings, somewhat taken aback—it was too poor, even less luxurious than his own home!

"Yun Hao, how is your father doing lately?" After the host and guest sat down, Xiao Zhenye didn't mince words and went straight to the point, his eyes fixed on Yun Hao.

Oh, asking about my father right away? Damn, could this old man know my father?

It must be so; otherwise, this geezer wouldn't treat me so courteously!

"I haven't seen my father in a long time either!" Yun Hao replied carefully, mixing truth with falsehood, as only such words are the most convincing!

"Imagine, it's been over twenty years since I last saw my benefactor. If he hadn't appeared back then, I would have already died at the hands of my enemies, not to mention have the cultivation I possess now!"

Xiao Zhenye, oblivious to Yun Hao's circumspection, immersed himself in memories, his eyes filled with deep nostalgia!

Next, Xiao Zhenye began telling Yun Hao about the past when Yun Shiyi saved his life and how he had the fortune to follow Yun Shiyi for a time!

Yun Hao listened intently, more sincere than ever before. It was the first time he'd heard the most detailed information about his father from someone else!

As Xiao Zhenye narrated, Yun Hao unknowingly immersed himself in the story, as if he could see his father, Yun Shiyi, acting with utter dominance and deciding life and death with a mere gesture!

Moreover, in Xiao Zhenye's narration, Yun Shiyi annihilated not only people but also non-humans, truly slaying gods if gods blocked his path and destroying Buddhas if Buddhas dared to obstruct him!

The most shocking and unforgettable incident, according to Xiao Zhenye, was when Yun Shiyi, with only three to five people, went to rescue someone and ended up killing over a thousand opponents all by himself!

These foes were not comparable to those in Japan. According to Xiao Zhenye, even the weakest among them was a Fifth Grade Martial Artist, while the strongest was beyond his comprehension, a powerhouse capable of draining his will to resist with just a glance!

Previously, Yun Hao only knew his father was formidable from others' words, but now he had a newfound appreciation for his father's prowess—Yun Shiyi was not just strong, but extraordinarily powerful!

It was only at this moment Yun Hao truly understood why people held his father in such esteem and fear!

No way, my father was so remarkable; I can't be too weak myself, or I'd only bring disgrace to him!

"Haha, sorry about that; as one ages, one just loves to reminisce about the past. Yun Hao, since Xiao Mei adores you, I will fulfill your wishes. However, I hope you will not disappoint her!

I also know that there must be more women around you, much like your father back then, but I still hope, from my standpoint as her grandfather, that you will not let down Xiao Mei!"

Snapping out of his reverie, Xiao Zhenye first chuckled self-deprecatingly, then looked earnestly and sincerely at Yun Hao!
