Chapter 59: Qin Xinran Assists in Keeping the Two Women (Begging for Readers to Follow)

Xia Qingxue stuck out her tongue and gave a playful smile: "I know even if you don't say it; isn't it just marrying my husband?"

Although she was not old, she was already mature; how could she not see the meaning in Xiao Ruoyu's eyes?

"You!"

Seeing that the agreement between her and Su Chen had been guessed, Xiao Ruoyu's cheeks burned, and she couldn't help but cast a reproachful glance at Su Chen.

She assumed Su Chen had told Xia Qingxue about the agreement in private.

"Giggle."

Su Chen looked at her shy appearance and couldn't help but laugh.

Watching the two women in his arms bickering, Su Chen wore a shameless expression, his face full of enjoyment.

"Hold me tight, this Young Master is going to increase the speed of our journey home!"

He said with a chuckle.

Hearing this, Xiao Ruoyu and Xia Qingxue immediately reacted, hurriedly wrapping their arms around Su Chen's waist and clinging to him like octopuses.

Watching the backs of the three as they moved away.

Standing on a large tree, a man in plain clothes wearing a bamboo hat slowly opened his half-closed eyes and whispered: "This is all I can do to help you; if fate allows, we will meet again."

After speaking, with a "swish" sound.

He vanished from that large tree; if not for the leaves nearby fluttering slightly, it would have been almost impossible to discover that he had ever been there.

————————

Under the gaze of the crowd, Su Chen held the two women and flew directly toward the Su Mansion.

Along the way, the onlookers were filled with envy.

"Ah~ isn't that the Young Master of the Su Family? He is actually holding the young lady of the Xia Family in his arms."

"No, the eldest young lady of the Xiao Family is also in his arms!"

"As expected of the Young Master of the Su Family, I wish I could have this kind of life, holding one in each arm."

The onlookers discussed it heatedly, all with expressions of envy.

As for Su Chen, he remained silent the whole time, as if he hadn't heard the discussions of the people below.

Soon, the three arrived at the Su Mansion.

Su Chen brought the two women directly back to his own courtyard.

Upon learning that her son had also brought Xiao Ruoyu home, Qin Xinran was overjoyed.

She had also heard about Su Chen spending ten billion Superior Spirit Stones on Xiao Ruoyu at the Tianqiong Auction House.

As the saying goes: no one knows a son better than his mother.

Of course, she knew that her son had taken a fancy to Xiao Ruoyu.

As a mother, she naturally had to assist her son in winning over Xiao Ruoyu at the first opportunity.

Thus, she took An Ji and headed to Su Chen's small courtyard immediately.

When Xiao Ruoyu and Xia Qingxue learned that Su Chen's mother was visiting, the two were suddenly flustered.

After all, their relationship with Su Chen had not been established, and meeting an elder so abruptly was bound to be somewhat awkward.

"Don't be nervous, you two; my mother is a very kind person..."

Su Chen noticed the strange expressions on the two women and offered a word of comfort, then led them out to greet her.

"Mother, why are you here?"

Just as he stepped out of the courtyard gate, he saw Qin Xinran appearing at the entrance.

"Ahem~ ahem."

Qin Xinran coughed twice and glanced behind Su Chen, "You brat, I'm here to see the young lady of the Xiao family and the young lady of the Xia family."

"Who is as inconsiderate as you, bringing young ladies home without even telling your mother? If it weren't for your Ji Yi, I wouldn't even have known."

Hearing this, Su Chen was covered in black lines.

It seemed nothing could escape his mother's eyes.

Qin Xinran walked into the courtyard, scanned the two women, and said with a smile: "Young lady of the Xiao family, young lady of the Xia family..."

"Ruoyu greets you, Auntie."

"Qingxue greets you, Auntie."

Xiao Ruoyu and Xia Qingxue hurriedly bowed respectfully.

They had an excellent impression of Qin Xinran, as her first impression on them was very good—gentle and refined, a typical type of virtuous and kind woman.

This allowed the two women's previously anxious hearts to relax slightly.

Not bad, truly worthy of being the young ladies Su Chen has taken a fancy to; they really have an extraordinary temperament.

Qin Xinran nodded inwardly.

She scrutinized the two women's expressions, liking them more the more she looked.

This made Xiao Ruoyu and Xia Qingxue even more nervous.

"Since you have come to our home, stay for a while longer. Let's wait until your injuries are healed; you don't have any objections, do you?"

Qin Xinran looked at the two women and asked with a smile.

She couldn't bear to send the two women away; after all, both were stunning beauties, especially Xiao Ruoyu, who was a one-in-a-million beauty.

Moreover, although Xiao Ruoyu's personality was a bit cold, she was a kind girl at heart; she had investigated these two women privately, and she was very satisfied with the results.

Hearing this, the two women exchanged glances and then replied in unison: "Thank you, Auntie."

As the number one noble family of the Donghua Continent, the Su Family was likely the safest and most suitable place to recover from injuries.

Since Qin Xinran had taken the initiative to invite them, they could not refuse her kindness.

"That's good, that's good."

Seeing the two women agree, Qin Xinran smiled with satisfaction, then turned her head to Su Chen at her side and said, "You brat, what are you still standing there for? Hurry and tell the servants to tidy up the guest rooms in the courtyard."

"Oh, I'll go arrange it right away."

Hearing this, the corners of Su Chen's mouth couldn't help but twitch.

His own mother forgot all about him the moment she saw her daughters-in-law.

"Ruoyu, Qingxue, you..."

Watching Su Chen's departing back, Qin Xinran took the two women's hands and began chatting enthusiastically.

This scene looked so harmonious.

On the other side, Su Chen had already arranged for servants to tidy up the side chambers where Xiao Ruoyu and Xia Qingxue would temporarily reside.

After settling the two women in.

Qin Xinran and Su Chen walked one after the other to Su Chen's study.

An Ji gently closed the door and stood guard at the entrance.

"Mother, do you recognize this object or this handwriting?"

Su Chen took a Flying Sword and a sheet of rice paper from his robes and handed them to Qin Xinran.

These were the two items a mysterious person had left at the gate of his Su Family estate today after the incident with Xiao Ruoyu and Xia Qingxue.

This sheet of rice paper had been tied to this Flying Sword.

He had followed the method written on the rice paper, tracking the traces left by the mysterious person along the way, which was how he discovered Chu Yang in the suburbs.

In the end, he was able to rescue the two women in time.

Su Chen was very curious in his heart about the true identity of the mysterious person; after all, since they had helped him, he had to show some form of gratitude.

Qin Xinran examined them carefully for a long time, her brows gradually furrowing.

After a moment, she shook her head and said, "Chen'er, Mother does not recognize whose handwriting this is."

"Oh."

Su Chen nodded slightly, feeling no disappointment, appearing instead incomparably calm.

After all, the handwriting on the rice paper was very ordinary, with nothing special about it; trying to identify the mysterious person through the handwriting alone was no different from a fantasy.

Putting down the rice paper, Qin Xinran picked up the Flying Sword and began to study it carefully.

This Flying Sword had a bronze luster throughout its body, with strange patterns carved upon it, shimmering with a dark light, as if it contained an extremely profound power.

The most crucial point was that the patterns on this Flying Sword were very complex, not at all like an ordinary Flying Sword.

"Hm?"

Suddenly, Qin Xinran's expression became a bit more solemn, her eyes flickering as if she had made a discovery.
