Chapter 42: Yanran, Please Undress for Your Husband

She did not deny Su Chen's words.

Just as Su Chen said, Xiao Tiancheng had always wanted to obtain the position of Young Master of the Xiao Family.

Now, she understood the situation of the Xiao Family better than anyone; one slight mistake, and she would be doomed beyond redemption.

As for Su Chen, being the Young Master of the Su Family and the sole heir, his status was noble, and in every aspect, he was more than enough to be a match for her.

Once she married Su Chen and became his legal wife, the Young Mistress of the Su Family, her position in the Xiao Family would surely be solidified and could not be shaken by anyone else.

But the problem was

Su Chen seemed to have sensed the emotional fluctuations of Xiao Ruoyu and continued, "Miss Xiao, if you don't believe me, I can reveal another piece of information to you."

As he spoke, he pointed toward the direction of the "Hai" private room, "Ye Fan is the spy your brother Xiao Tiancheng planted by your side."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ruoyu suddenly looked up, her pupils constricted, and a monstrous wave surged in her heart.

She had previously felt quite favorably toward Ye Fan, but she never expected that Ye Fan and Xiao Tiancheng were actually in league with each other.

"Do you have proof?"

After a brief loss of composure, Xiao Ruoyu regained her calm, looked straight at Su Chen, and asked in a deep voice.

"Of course I do!"

Su Chen nodded, took an Image Jade from his bosom, and gently placed it into Xiao Ruoyu's jade-like hand.

Taking the Image Jade from Su Chen's hand, Xiao Ruoyu impatiently probed it with her divine sense to watch the images inside.

A moment later, her expression became uncertain, and her beautiful eyes widened.

The Image Jade displayed the scene of Ye Fan and Xiao Tiancheng secretly meeting outside the Tianqiong Auction House.

Finally, Xiao Ruoyu raised her beautiful eyes, and the look in her eyes as she gazed at Su Chen was filled with complexity.

She knew Su Chen had not lied to her.

At this moment, her mind was a mess, her thoughts were chaotic, and for a time, she did not know what choice to make.

Seeing this, Su Chen struck while the iron was hot and continued to entice her, "Miss Xiao, as long as you marry me, I can tell you a secret regarding this Incomplete Jade Pendant in your hand."

"You should also be able to feel that you have a connection to this jade pendant."

Hearing this, Xiao Ruoyu's delicate body trembled violently, and her complexion became agitated.

She indeed had a special feeling about this jade pendant, but she was not certain.

Now, after Su Chen's reminder, she became increasingly certain.

Xiao Ruoyu took a deep breath, trying hard to calm herself down, and asked while looking at Su Chen, "Does this jade pendant really have something to do with me?"

"That's right."

Su Chen smiled and nodded.

"What conditions do you require?" After pondering for a moment, Xiao Ruoyu raised her beautiful eyes and looked at Su Chen.

She now felt that this jade pendant would be very important to her, so she was willing to pay some price.

"I said the condition is only one: you become my woman and become the Young Mistress of the Su Family."

Su Chen pinched Xiao Ruoyu's exquisite chin and gave a wicked smile.

"Young Master Su, please let me calm down for a moment."

Xiao Ruoyu resisted the urge to push Su Chen away and spoke in a calm tone.

But Su Chen did not intend to let her calm down; instead, he smiled and said, "Miss Xiao, although we are not familiar, as a close friend of Xia Qingxue, you should understand my character. Although I am very overbearing, I act in an open and honest manner, I keep my word, and I cherish my own women even more."

Hearing this, Xiao Ruoyu nodded, indicating her agreement with his statement.

Back then, Su Chen could have clearly obtained Xia Qingxue through forceful means, but he did not; instead, he pursued her in a legitimate way and did not use any underhanded or dirty tactics behind the scenes.

Just like how Su Chen could clearly force himself upon her now, but he did not; instead, he stood before her, openly stating his conditions and letting her consider it clearly before deciding.

"I need you to control the rear of the Su Family for me, and you need me to help you win the position of Young Master of the Xiao Family. It is a mutually beneficial win-win situation. What do you think?" Su Chen said with a smile.

After hearing his words, Xiao Ruoyu fell into silence and did not answer for a long time.

Su Chen had plenty of patience; he sat back down in his chair to drink tea, not feeling impatient at all, as if he had already secured victory.

After about half a minute, Xiao Ruoyu slowly raised her head and said, "I agree to you, but the premise is that you must help me defeat the enemies within the Xiao Family."

Hearing this, Su Chen raised his eyebrows, looking slightly surprised, but then he nodded and said, "No problem!"

"You wouldn't have fallen in love with me, would you?" Xiao Ruoyu asked abruptly, looking at Su Chen with burning eyes.

Su Chen shrugged and said candidly, "You are very beautiful, and your figure is even more superb. I like beautiful things, and I especially like beautiful girls."

"Can I take that as a compliment?" Xiao Ruoyu blinked her lively eyes and said playfully.

Su Chen smiled indifferently and said, "You can understand it that way."

Xiao Ruoyu pursed her lips and chuckled, "Thank you for the praise."

She had originally thought she had no attraction to Su Chen, but she did not expect that the other party would actually express appreciation for her.

This caused a sense of sweetness to well up in the bottom of her heart.

After a pause, Su Chen continued, "Since the cooperation is settled, then please, Miss Xiao, pay the deposit in advance."

"What?"

Xiao Ruoyu was slightly stunned, unable to react for a moment, not understanding what a deposit was.

But soon, she understood Su Chen's meaning.

Su Chen stood up, walked to her, reached out to hook her slender neck, lowered his head, and kissed her soft, rosy lips.

Xiao Ruoyu stood there stunned, letting Su Chen kiss her.

Su Chen's kissing technique was excellent; his tongue pried open Xiao Ruoyu's teeth like a steel whip, invading her fragrant and soft mouth, ravaging every inch of her territory, and bringing Xiao Ruoyu a wonderful and stimulating experience.

"Mmm~"

Xiao Ruoyu groaned uncontrollably, her whole body turning soft.

After a long time, the two parted lips; Xiao Ruoyu's pretty face was as red as clouds, her pearly teeth bit her thin lips, and her chest heaved violently.

"I'll accept this deposit for now, and we can settle the remaining balance slowly in the future," Su Chen said with a grin.

"You—"

Xiao Ruoyu glared at Su Chen, "I hope you can keep your word. If I find out you dared to deceive me, or if I discover any trace of it, don't blame me for being heartless!"

After saying this, she turned and left the private room.

Watching Xiao Ruoyu's back disappear outside the door, the corners of Su Chen's mouth curled into an arc.

"It seems I haven't completely conquered this iceberg beauty yet. But, just now, it was really sweet and fragrant."

Su Chen stroked his chin and muttered to himself.

He had indeed developed a keen interest in Xiao Ruoyu.

After all, a top-tier beauty like Xiao Ruoyu, who also possessed the Divine Phoenix Martial Soul, was truly rare, and he didn't mind spending a little more effort.

He was even more convinced that, with his methods, he would be able to win over this iceberg beauty sooner or later.

"Clap, clap, clap."

Su Chen clapped his hands three times, and after a few breaths, Chu Yanran walked in gracefully.

Just now, looking at the beautiful and alluring Xiao Ruoyu but being unable to touch her had really made Su Chen crave her.

Now, he could finally enjoy himself to the fullest.

"Yanran, help your husband undress."
