Chapter 1381: This Question Is Too Tricky

"Why do you ask me such a tricky question?" Chen Yu said, feeling somewhat between laughter and tears. "The two of them each have their own strengths and their own advantages."

"There is no one who is better or worse; they are both extremely excellent people."

"Your question is a bit cunning," Liu Ruxi glared at Chen Yu and said. "If I ask you a serious question, can you not give me a serious answer?"

"It's not that I don't want to give a serious answer, but this kind of question is truly impossible to answer," Chen Yu sighed slightly.

"In your past life, One Qi Transforms into Three Lotuses meant that you had three incarnations; this is something that could only be achieved with supreme virtue and wisdom."

"So, since you were reborn, whether it is Liu Lianxin or Liu Ruxi, both are truly and genuinely you."

"You still haven't chosen to answer the question directly," Liu Ruxi raised her head to look at Chen Yu.

"This question cannot be answered directly," Chen Yu said with a bitter smile. "So, please don't ask anymore for now."

Liu Ruxi nodded slightly and said, "Alright then, I won't make things difficult for you. I would like to stay in Modu for a while longer."

"Don't you need to hurry up and cultivate?" Chen Yu was slightly stunned. Liu Ruxi is not going to cultivate anymore?

"In my previous life, I had no family. Although the people of the Liu Family were not bad to me, it was ultimately not the kind of kinship where blood is thicker than water; there was an element of exploitation in how they treated me."

Liu Ruxi said leisurely, "So, I have no feelings whatsoever for the so-called kinship of the Liu Family."

"This life is different. My aunt, Li Jie, is very good to me. From her, I have felt the care I deserve, so I want to stay here with her for a while longer."

"Actually, this is also another form of cultivation, isn't it?" Chen Yu paused and said.

"Yes, this is actually also a form of cultivation," Liu Ruxi nodded slightly and said. "That is why I want to stay here for a while longer."

"That's fine," Chen Yu nodded. When you think about it, Liu Lianxin is also a pitiful person, so letting her experience some family affection is not a problem.

Now that her consciousness has awakened, she fully has the ability to protect herself, so Chen Yu does not need to worry about her deliberately.

There are no new missions coming from Dragon Breath for the time being, so it is good for Chen Yu to take this time to go back and have a nice reunion with his family.

"But you still have to be careful, because the Underworld Envoy is still here. If the people of the God Lord really capture you, the punishment will surely be like skinning and cramping," Chen Yu thought for a moment, but still cautioned her, feeling uneasy.

"Worried about me?" Liu Ruxi turned her head to glance at Chen Yu, and she smiled slightly. "If you really can't set your mind at ease about me, then stay here and keep me company."

Chen Yu was between laughter and tears. What is this? Is he being a busybody? He really wished he could slap himself twice.

"I am indeed worried about you, because I know the people of the God Lord all too well," Chen Yu sighed slightly and said. "Their methods are endless, so... you must be careful yourself."

Liu Ruxi remained silent for a long time before saying, "I know. The God Lord himself is a madman, and I will be careful."

"That's good," Chen Yu nodded slightly.

"Will you treat me to a meal?" Liu Ruxi turned her head.

"Am I treating you, or am I treating Liu Lianxin?" Chen Yu asked.

"Is there a difference?" Liu Ruxi asked curiously.

"There is a difference," Chen Yu thought for a moment and said. "If I were treating Liu Lianxin, I would have nothing to say, but if I am treating you, you are my boss. I have been working for you for so long, and I haven't received a single cent of wages."

What Chen Yu said was the truth. It had been less than a month since he arrived here, far from the time to pay wages. He had been acting as both a driver and a bodyguard, working hard and being exploited for so long, yet he hadn't received a dime in wages.

Now he even had to pay out of his own pocket for the other party; thinking about this, he still felt some resistance in his heart.

"You are the crown prince of the He Group, don't think I don't know," Liu Ruxi glared at him and said. "You went to great lengths to get by my side, and I didn't have the heart to expose you. Now you have the nerve to ask me for wages?"

"You should know why I approached you," Chen Yu said somewhat helplessly. "If I didn't approach you, you would never know how many wolves and tigers are around you."

Liu Ruxi was silent for a moment, then said, "This Green Lotus Jade Bone of mine is inherently something that makes people jealous."

"Yes, it makes people too jealous. Forget it, I'll treat you to a meal," Chen Yu smiled helplessly. "I've never seen a boss like you, no one exploits people like you do. Let's go."

Liu Ruxi smiled slightly and left with Chen Yu.

Li Feng, Chen Yu's former card-playing friend, was also one of the few old friends he had.

He used to work for Wen Ge, but after meeting Chen Yu later and talking about life with him, he felt that his current days were dull and tasteless.

Plus, he had a girlfriend and had indeed saved up quite a bit of money over the years, so he turned over a new leaf and opened a barbecue shop with his girlfriend.

The shop was not big, and the decoration was average, but it was very down-to-earth. In the evening, a few tables were set up outside, and business was indeed quite good.

A girl who looked very sweet was busy back and forth in the shop; she was Li Feng's fiancée, Xu Li.

Because business in the shop was too busy, the couple had to hire a few temporary workers to help.

"Business is good," Chen Yu walked to Li Feng's side and smiled slightly.

"Chen Yu?" Li Feng, who was busy, was slightly stunned when he saw Chen Yu, then burst into laughter. "You finally had time to come over. You didn't come when I opened, so since you're here today, we must have a few drinks."

"I was busy with other things before, sorry about that," Chen Yu smiled and said.

"Lili, come here, let me introduce you. This is Chen Yu, whom I often mentioned before; we were good friends back home," Li Feng pulled Chen Yu over to introduce him.

"It's Brother Chen, please sit down quickly." Xu Li was also very enthusiastic. She invited Chen Yu and Liu Ruxi to be seated and then smiled, "Li Feng often mentioned you before."

"Sister-in-law is very beautiful," Chen Yu smiled and walked over with Liu Ruxi.

"This must be your wife, she is the one who is truly beautiful," Xu Li said very pleasantly.

"Haha, sit down. Since you're here today, we have to have a few drinks no matter what," Li Feng laughed loudly and found a table to sit down.

"You rarely come to this kind of place to eat, right?" Chen Yu looked up at Liu Ruxi.

"I basically have never been here," Liu Ruxi smiled, but she sat down anyway.

Whether it was Liu Lianxin or Liu Ruxi, neither had an ordinary background, so she lacked a touch of the worldly atmosphere of human life.
