Chapter 1677: After Facing the Rank‑One, I Was Entangled by a Yandere 25

"Jin Chen! Stand still!"

"Liu Mu could bear it no longer; he knocked his incessantly struggling younger brother unconscious, his voice laced with extreme rage: 'Won't you give me an explanation?'"

"Jin Chen gently patted Jiang Sui, who was hiding in his arms, and calmly turned back: 'What explanation? You don't even know where the medicine came from.'"

"I'm asking what's up with Xiao Qin's shoulder wound!"

"Jin Chen glanced into the distance."

"Oh wow."

"What a precise wound."

"Jin Chen, with a stern face toward Liu Mu, said: 'How would I know? Go ask the police.'"

"Liu Mu: '……'"

"This love drug came from the black market—how dare he call the police!"

"Liu Mu gritted his teeth, carried Liu Qin away, and could only swallow this mute loss."

"'Your move was pretty ruthless.' Jin Chen pinched Jiang Sui's ear; when the back of his hand touched his cheek, he suddenly felt something off, his tone tightening for a moment."

"'Why are you running a fever?'"

"'Because...'"

"Jiang Sui lifted his head from his arms, obediently pressing his face into Jin Chen's palm, his misty, hazy gaze unfocused, the corners of his eyes tinged with the pale purple of chamomile."

"I also took a bit of that medicine..."

"Jin Chen: '……'"

"Jin Chen gritted his teeth, pinching his face: 'Is your body fine? You dare to casually eat any kind of medicine!'"

"The tail of his reprimand was swallowed back; his fingers were seized by Jiang Sui, shoved into his mouth and moistened."

"Jin Chen's breath sank, unable to bear it any longer, he scooped the person up in a horizontal hold."

"The room in the old residence, silent for a long time, was finally reused, brimming with the vitality of the living."

"Jiang Sui seemed especially gifted in this matter—awkward yet intensely alluring, and truly remarkably obedient; when passion deepened, his salty, wet tears blurred at the corners of his mouth, moistening his lips, flowing down to his chin before being kissed away."

"Even though his body had been considerably nourished, one could still faintly see his former frailty; the slight protrusion of his spinal vertebrae along the nape rose and fell beneath the flesh, the heat scorching the vessels and surging to his heart, boiling."

"Jin Chen grasped the nape, feeling a faint tremor, yet couldn't help but soften, lingering with a kiss."

"'Jin Chen... Jin Chen...'"

"Jiang Sui suddenly whispered his name repeatedly, his voice sticky and sweet, hooking his neck as he begged softly, his trembling fingers tracing over the bite mark that had just landed above his collarbone."

"'Bite harder.'"

"Jin Chen fell silent for half a moment, his voice hoarse as he refused: 'No, it would draw blood.'"

"'... Then I'll bite you.' Jiang Sui's eyes were obsessive; his fingertip traced across Jin Chen's shoulder."

"Jin Chen eased his movements, holding the person and turning him into his embrace, gently wiping his sweat‑damp forehead: 'All right.'"

"Jiang Sui bit through Jin Chen's shoulder; even just a little was enough for blood to seep out."

"Jin Chen hissed."

"This familiar sting."

"His wife's possessiveness really hasn't changed at all."

"Jiang Sui fell into a deep sleep, obediently snuggled in Jin Chen's arms."

"Jin Chen kissed his forehead, lightly poked Jiang Sui's face, and said, 'He really is a little monster.'"

"A mouth full of sharp teeth."

"He rose, cradling the little monster to wash up."

"【Detected Villain Heartthrob Value +10, total 83!】"

"——"

"Within a single afternoon, the news of the Jin Family Head changing hands had already spread throughout the realm; it's not strange, after all, only a few are eligible to inherit the family, and even fewer when you demand both strong ability and ruthless means."

"Jiang Sui didn't wake until the afternoon; as Jin Chen took him out, they inevitably passed the main hall, where they happened to bump into the Jiang family members who had brought Jiang Sui to lodge a complaint."

"Also seated in the chief seat, sipping tea, was the new family head."

"Jin Chen acted as if he hadn't seen that group of furious people, leading Jiang Sui forward while always keeping him protected behind him."

"'Congratulations, Aunt.'"

"In crowded places, Jiang Sui is always especially quiet; he glanced briefly at Jiang Sui, then, not particularly caring, shifted his gaze away and leaned into Jin Chen's embrace."

"The family head finally set down his teacup, gestured for him to sit, and said, 'Really, you're the one who hit him?'"

"'No.' Jin Chen was stern."

"Family head: '……'"

"I haven't even said who got hit yet."

"'You still say no!' Jiang Sui was furious, his mouth still aching from speaking: 'Isn't beating me into this enough?!'"

"Jin Chen turned to face him, righteous and confident: 'Do you have any evidence?'"

"Jiang Sui:???"

"'Are you fucking amnesiac?!'"

"Jiang Sui then snapped angrily: 'Jin Family Head, you won't just take office and start covering up, will you? Our Jiang Family isn't to be trifled with!'"

"Family head: 'Naturally I won't cover up; it's just that matters between the younger generation are really hard to intervene in, and besides, as Xiao Chen said, you need to produce evidence.'"

"'And what about you kids—were you also beaten by Xiao Chen?'"

"Several young masters hadn't even had a chance to speak before being signaled by their respective elders with a glance."

"Moreover, with their bodies still burning, the shadow Jin Chen left on them hasn't faded."

"Who knows if this person might suddenly pop out again one day to give them a beating!"

No… not.

Yeah, we didn't even see who it was; maybe just a passerby… thug.

Jiang3 sui1: "……"

You guys crazy?

How could there be thugs here!

Jin Chen: "You're framing me—what's your motive!"

Jiang3 sui1 was so angry he almost passed out.

How dare they turn the tables!

The Jiang family members gradually realized the issue; regardless of whether Jiang Sui's injury today was caused by the Jin family's always independent young master, it cannot be so now.

The Old Master's power had just been taken over by the new family head; it was exactly the time to reconsider several family ties, and falling out with anyone would look bad.

They could only let Jiang Sui admit defeat, running away with his tail between his legs.

After seeing off the person who came to complain, Jin Chen was about to get up and leave, but his aunt called out to stop him.

You know, you should still come back often; now the Jin family has no one who can make you unhappy—you can't really cut off family ties.

Jin Chen nodded, but with a hint of perfunctoriness.

Besides, Auntie doesn't have anything else she can do; she just wants to fulfill this wish for your parents, to properly arrange your lifelong matter.

The family head laughed: "Back when you were little, you played well with the kids around you; do you remember that girl from the Song family?"

Jin Chen: "……"

Suddenly a chill ran down his back.

He interrupted the aunt's speech before she could continue, pulling Jiang Sui out from behind him, "Auntie, I already have a boyfriend."

The family head's unfinished words were swallowed back, and he forgot to close his mouth.

This remark was obviously too shocking for Ms. Jin, who lives in a traditional atmosphere, causing her brain to short‑circuit for a moment, unable to process it.

You… boyfriend?

She then said that's why Xiao Chen and this friend have been inseparable today.

So it's this relationship after all.

Jiang Sui was looked at back and forth by several gazes; he felt no nervousness about meeting the parents, only a sense of crisis that Jin Chen might be taken away, clenching his face and staying silent.

But thinking about it, who would be happy to have someone say, to their face, that they want to set up a blind date for their boyfriend?

The family head felt a bit embarrassed and rubbed his hands.

Jin Chen said seriously: "If you really want to do something for my parents, you can burn more paper money."

Family head: "……" What kind of talk is this?

She pressed her temples, headache; it's not that she absolutely must split them up—now Xiao Chen still wants to get along with this aunt of his, which is already good enough, at least they haven't truly cut off family ties.

Then you haven't changed about meeting her—stay and have dinner together.

No need, I still have to go work at the café," Jin Chen shrugged, rose from his seat, "I'll come see you again next time."
