Chapter 646: Giving Him a Send-off

"Ch-Chen, Brother Chen, who were those people with the chains just now?" Huang Shaoming asked, emboldened.

"Yin Officials, Soul Detaining Envoys; oh, they're basically the Ox-Head and Horse-Face you see in TV dramas," Chen Yu said calmly. "Hu Xu's Yin Spirit has already been taken away; those things won't happen at the construction site anymore."

"Just clear out the Yin Dwelling inside, burn some Underworld Money, sprinkle it with Black Dog Blood, and fill it in. There won't be any more trouble at the site," Chen Yu said calmly.

"Right, right, thank you, Brother Chen, thank you so much." Jiang Wei steadied himself, only then recovering from the shock. "Brother Chen, your methods are truly formidable. Just now... was that Yin Official bowing to you?"

"Hmm, the first time I met him, he wanted to take away someone important to me. I taught him a lesson, and he's been well-behaved ever since," Chen Yu said.

"You... you beat him up?" The two were even more shocked. In their eyes, an Underworld Yin Official was such a terrifying existence—these things were fiercer than any Ghost and specialized in detaining human souls. Yet Chen Yu had actually beaten one up; just how strong was he?

"It's actually nothing," Chen Yu said with a faint smile. "Their rank is too low; they are just errand-runners in the Underworld. Any Daoist or monk with a bit of cultivation doesn't take them seriously. Alright, the matter is resolved, and I should be heading back."

"Very well, Brother Chen, I'll treat you to a meal another day to properly thank you." Jiang Wei nodded repeatedly. He still had to wrap up this matter, but he would definitely thank Chen Yu another day.

Besides, someone capable of treating an Underworld Yin Official like a servant was absolutely a ruthless character, so building a good relationship was the right thing to do.

"Also, do you have an older brother?" Chen Yu looked at Jiang Wei.

"Yes, I do have an older brother, named Jiang Chenghai. Why do you ask, Brother Chen?" Jiang Wei asked.

"It's nothing. If you ever need help in the future, just call my number." Chen Yu offered a phone number to Jiang Wei.

"Alright, thank you, Brother Chen." Jiang Wei hurriedly took the number.

In truth, he did not know that the reason Chen Yu came to help him, and left his number afterward, was entirely because of his older brother, Jiang Chenghai.

Shi Ying, the younger sister of Shi Chengye from Ning City, and her two children needed to perform Borrowing a Body to Resurrect. Yinxian had previously revealed that the wife of Jiang Chenghai of the Jiang Clan of Shengjing would die in childbirth in a few days due to an unfulfilled fate from a past life.

Shi Ying and her two children had thus obtained an opportunity and might be reborn using the body of Jiang Chenghai's wife. This was the reason why Chen Yu was so attentive to this construction site of Jiang Wei's.

"Mr. Chen, thank you very much." Seeing Chen Yu walk out, Liu Qiang said to him gratefully.

"You're too kind, Manager Liu. My cousin has relied on your care all these years," Chen Yu said with a smile.

"Hu is loyal and clever; this is only what I should do," Liu Qiang laughed.

"Manager Liu, go back to your work. I'll head back on my own." Chen Yu smiled and got into the car with Zhang Hu.

"Xiaoyu, where did you learn this set of skills?" In the car, Zhang Hu looked at Chen Yu in disbelief. The Chen Yu in his eyes was simply a different person from the one he knew before.

"I learned it by accident," Chen Yu said with a smile. "Cousin, a person's fate is never set in stone. The same goes for you; one day, you will soar to great heights."

"With those words from you, I can rest easy," Zhang Hu laughed heartily. "Xiaoyu, I am truly happy for you."

Zhang Hu was indeed a good man; unlike those snobbish people, he was genuinely happy for Chen Yu.

Returning to Zhang Hu's club, the place was now operating normally.

However, with Zhang Hu's formidable rival Li Shan gone, business would be easier to manage in the future.

"Hu, where did you go? Why didn't you answer when I called you?" Just as they entered the club, a girl dressed in skimpy clothing ran over and said to Zhang Hu with dissatisfaction.

The girl was above average in looks and dressed trendily, but as soon as she opened her mouth, her character was exposed.

"I went out for something, my phone was off." As soon as Zhang Hu saw the girl, he hurriedly ran over and put his arm around her. "Lulu, let me introduce you. This is my cousin, Chen Yu. Chen Yu, this is Li Lu, hehe, my girlfriend."

"So it's my sister-in-law." Chen Yu was stunned. Although the woman before him looked decent, her lips were thin, her nose bridge was sharp, and she had a sour, mean-spirited look on her face.

From her Appearance, one could tell she was mean-spirited, snobbish, and full of schemes—a total "green tea" bitch. How did Zhang Hu find this woman to be his girlfriend?

However, seeing Zhang Hu's expression, he clearly liked Li Lu very much. For the sake of appearances, Chen Yu could only smile and call her sister-in-law.

"Sister-in-law? What sister-in-law? Why are you calling me that?" Li Lu disgustedly shook off Zhang Hu's hand, then looked Chen Yu up and down. Seeing Chen Yu's simple attire, she said with dissatisfaction, "Are your relatives from the countryside here to sponge off you?"

"No, no, Xiaoyu is..." Zhang Hu was stunned and hurriedly tried to explain; Chen Yu's status was not ordinary.

But before he could finish, Li Lu shouted, "No what no? If you ask me, you should stop associating with your poor relatives from the countryside. Nothing good ever happens when they come looking for you—either they're borrowing money or asking you to arrange jobs for them."

"Every time a relative comes, you give them whatever they want. Does your money grow on trees? Wouldn't it be better to use that money to buy me a bag?"

"They're just relatives, relatives." Zhang Hu looked at Chen Yu with some embarrassment and responded cautiously.

Chen Yu's brow furrowed even tighter. No matter the occasion, in front of others, a woman should leave a man some face; it concerned a man's self-esteem.

Yet Li Lu didn't leave Zhang Hu any face at all. This woman was narrow-minded and not suitable to be a wife.

"Relatives? What relatives?" Li Lu pointed at Chen Yu and said, "Just tell me, what did you come to find Hu for? Is it to borrow money, or to look for a job? There's no money to borrow, but a job is possible—Hu is short of someone to serve tea and sweep the floors here."

"Lulu, what are you saying?" Zhang Hu's expression turned ugly.

"What, are you not convinced? Zhang Hu, you're just a hoodlum from the countryside. I'm dating you because you're punching above your weight. What do you want? Do you want to break up with me?"

Zhang Hu's face turned black instantly. Usually, when they were together, she could be as mean-spirited as she liked—he could even get down on the floor and let her ride him like a horse—but to say this in front of Chen Yu, wasn't that humiliating him?

"Cousin, it's fine." Chen Yu pulled Zhang Hu aside. "Sister-in-law is right; when relatives from home visit, they usually have an agenda. It's no wonder sister-in-law misunderstood. I did come to find you for something this time."

"See? Was I wrong?" Li Lu sneered. "Zhang Hu, was I wrong?"

"Xiaoyu, what is it you need?" Zhang Hu was stunned, not understanding what Chen Yu meant.

"Your club, the scale is average," Chen Yu said. "How about this: I'll provide the capital, consider it an investment, and we'll expand the scale of operations. Only then can we make big money."
