Chapter 280: Senior Bai Si's family background and the temptation of dowry

~7 min read 1,348 words

The banquet prepared by the Li family is no ordinary meal.
Every dish is cooked by senior professional chefs using precious ingredients.
Taste is only secondary.
The key is that eating it can increase your attributes!
After a meal, more than fifty attribute points were added here and there.
Just one banquet made Chen Yu feel once again that the gap between people in this world is really bigger than that between people and dogs!
When Chen Yu was in Jiangyang City, he had only "heard of" this kind of thing with permanent properties.
During the dinner, the Li family couple was a little too friendly.
Li Yalu's mother frequently brought food to Chen Yu and asked him about his welfare.
Li Yalu's father kept drinking and chatting with Chen Yu, and most of the conversation was about the Li family's wealth and industry.
Several large companies in the shipbuilding industry, two large guilds, and a professional chain mall have businesses throughout Xining Province.
All industries combined have a market value of tens of billions of gold coins.
If you add the stored treasures, the value is immeasurable.
This is not a show off of wealth, an attempt to make Chen Yu see the difference and stop having thoughts about Li Yalu, but more like a display.
Faced with a stranger whom my daughter brought home, who is also her classmate.
As a parent, in addition to hospitality, a certain amount of testing and understanding is essential.

But the Li family and his wife were not defensive at all, and their enthusiasm was overwhelming.
It wasn't until Li Yalu's father asked Chen Yu implicitly what he thought of Li Yalu and whether Chen Yu had a girlfriend, that Chen Yu understood the couple's plan.
This Li Shilin clearly wants to be Chen Yu's father-in-law.
Even, Chen Yu was tempted with a generous "dowry"!
However, of course, it is impossible to answer this kind of topic directly.
Faced with Li's father's sighs such as "I will only be such an incompetent daughter in my life, and there will be no successor to the huge family business," Chen Yu could only deal with it with a haha.
It's not like Li Yalu hasn't talked about her family's situation.
She is the little sister in the family. She has four brothers and five sisters.
So, what does "having only such an incompetent daughter" mean?
Does this mean that among the ten children born to the couple, Li Yalu is the youngest?
Rested one night at Li Yalu's house.
The next morning, the Li family personally sent Chen Yu and Li Yalu to Yubo City.
After leaving the city, Li Yalu took out a large, luxurious private spaceship, which was capable of autonomous driving, accurate navigation, and extremely high safety and comfort.
It is said that the price is as high as 50 million gold coins. It is a new high-end product from the Li family's airship manufacturing industry. Only ten units have been sold in total.
On the spaceship, Li Yalu was in high spirits and smiling.
Obviously I just got a lot of good things from home.
leaveAbout three hours after entering the urban area of ​​Yubo City, the spacecraft stopped in front of a dense forest.
Li Yalu put away the spaceship and walked into the dense forest with Chen Yu.
There are towering trees that are hundreds of meters high, and their lush canopies completely block the sky.
Even during the day, the forest was as dark as night.
The deeper you go, the dimmer the light becomes.
The ground covered with dead branches and leaves was extremely soft.
"Study, junior...I'm afraid~" Li Yalu hugged one of Chen Yu's arms and trembled.
Chen Yu looked at Li Yalu in surprise: "Sister Li, what are you afraid of?"
"I'm afraid, afraid..." Li Yalu's delicate expression froze, and after thinking for a moment, she said: "Well, I'm afraid of the dark."
Chen Yu's mouth twitched slightly: "Are you afraid of ghosts?"
In fact, for professionals, such a dark and dense forest environment is extremely normal.
The atmosphere of many dungeons is much scarier than this.
A priest is afraid of the dark? Isn't this pure nonsense?
"I'm also afraid of ghosts~" Li Yalu said softly, "Junior, can you protect me?"
As he said that, he hugged Chen Yu's arm tighter and tighter, and shook it a few times.
The soft touch came one after another.
Are you afraid of the dark?
I think you owe Gan!
"Wow~~~~~"
At this moment, a sound like a baby crying came.
Li Yalu's face suddenly condensed, she let go of Chen Yu's arm, pointed forward with the scepter, "Holy Light Technique!"
A pure light bloomed from the top of the scepter, reflecting every detail of the dark forest.
I saw a strange human head protruding from behind a giant tree.
The top of the human head is bald and hairless, the eyes are filled with a penetrating red light, the mouth has a beak, and under the temples, the position of the ears is replaced by long feathers.
"It's the human face, the monster species in Teacher Yun's information!" Li Ya looked happy.
"This forest is not a place for monsters to spawn. Since the human faces are on the periphery, their group leaders should still be there too!"
Chen Yu released a probing technique on the head.
【Human face, level 180 elite】
"��――――――"
It seems that the light of the Holy Light Technique stimulated the human face.
It sprang out from behind the tree and rushed towards Li Yalu.
This kind of monster has an owl-like body under its human head.
A pair of sharp claws as sharp as knives.
"Holy Barrier!"
Li Yalu waved her scepter.
A white arc-shaped light shield blocked in front of him.
The human face hit the light mask and was directly bounced back. The light mask only dimmed slightly.
"Spear of Punishment!"
A bright light spear more than one meter long shot out from in front of Li Yalu, instantly piercing the face of the person floating in the air.
The health bar was cleared directly to zero, and the monster's corpse fell softly.
"Sister Li, you're awesome!" Chen Yu gave her a thumbs up.
Li Yalu is only a second-level professional now, but she can face third-level elite monsters with ease, which is indeed extraordinary.
"In the last Horadric Secret Realm, after Teacher Yun sold the ownership, the participants received a lot of credits." Li Yalu said with a smile,
"I purchased two legendary passives and three epic active skills."
"It's all thanks to you and Senior Sister Feng."
While they were talking, several more shrill screams rang out.
The seven-headed figures swooped over one after another.
Two of them flapped their wings in mid-air, creating storms.
Countless dead leaves stabbed over like sharp knives.
The light of Li Yalu's sacred barrier became increasingly dim.
A human face bumped into him, and with a slash of his sharp claws, he completely destroyed the sacred barrier.
"Holy Barrier!"
Li Yalu calmly released a light shield again.
When the first light mask appeared, it suddenly flickered and split into ten light masks.
Then, the light on the mask became brighter and became like ten streaks of white glass, full of thick texture.
This defensive power is incomparable to the small barrier just now.
The seven-headed man's attacks were continuous, but even the outermost light shield couldn't cause any damage.
"Sister Li, the safety work is very good!" Chen Yu said in surprise.
"These are my two legendary skills, spell critical strike and multi-casting." Li Yalu was a little proud,
"In addition to the passive probability, you can also actively support it, obtaining five times the casting strength and ten times the casting strength."
The two legendary skills are linked together, triggering an effect far greater than that of two separate legendary skills.
It seems that Li Yalu's fighting style is sloppy.
After establishing an absolute defensive advantage, use attack skills to kill the monsters outside one by one.
