51: Using children to maintain friendship! Jealousy!

Under the witness of everyone, Chen Xuan and Zhao Lingwu completed the wedding ceremony and were sent into the bridal chamber.

Chen Wenwen had also been waiting for a long time.

Theoretically, as the one who entered the Family later, Zhao Lingwu was required to serve her tea, but given their identities, she did not put on airs.

Chen Xuan held Zhao Lingwu's jade hand and walked step by step toward the bedroom.

When they reached Chen Wenwen, she let go of Chen Xuan's hand, went to the table, and poured a cup of tea for Chen Wenwen.

"Z-Zhao, Aunt Zhao, you don't have to do this..."

"Still calling me Aunt!" Zhao Lingwu glared at her.

"The two of us are just poor wretches sacrificed for the Family, no need to be so serious!"

"N-no, not at all. Wenwen doesn't regret it one bit. Husband, Husband is the best husband in this world!"

Zhao Lingwu's expression instantly turned strange. Weren't these two supposed to have no relationship? Why does she look like she has completely fallen for and fallen in love with Chen Xuan now?

"Alright, the auspicious time has arrived; it's time for us to get down to business." Chen Xuan grabbed Zhao Lingwu's hand again.

"F-first, let's get this straight: we are just good buddies, n-no doing anything excessive!" Zhao Lingwu was extremely nervous.

"Rest assured, in order to maintain our friendship, I will choose a more secure method!" Chen Xuan said with a chuckle.

The next day, after waking up, Chen Xuan had already achieved a Breakthrough to Foundation Establishment.

"It seems I have truly found the pattern for why I couldn't achieve a Breakthrough..."

Feeling his cultivation back at the Early Stage of Foundation Establishment, Chen Xuan muttered to himself.

All of this was the System's doing! It had set a population mechanism for him!

"Ch-Chen Xuan, you are truly detestable! You s-said you wouldn't bully me!"

"How does this count as bullying you? Ask Wenwen and see if I actually bullied you!"

"Ah? W-Wenwen is here too?" Zhao Lingwu panicked.

"She's not here, I was just teasing you." He whispered in her ear.

In a secret room of the Zhao Family.

"What, you're saying that the son-in-law is a Core Disciple of the Xuan Yang Sect?!"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

"Which of the Core Disciples of the Xuan Yang Sect isn't arrogant? How could one possibly come to his small Zhao Family to be a son-in-law!"

Huang Meihua explained the reasons once more.

"A third-rank Medicinal Pill master whose cultivation was crippled? A third-rank talisman master! But why choose the Zhao Family?" Gao Yueting was puzzled.

"Perhaps it was just fate? Perhaps the Zhao Family has something your Gao family doesn't!" As she said this, Huang Meihua's mind raced.

She had seen the way Chen Xuan looked at her several times; sometimes like a beast wanting to devour her, and sometimes becoming very strange, just like... a victor looking at her and Zhao Yi!

"Impossible! In every aspect, the Zhao Family is inferior to my Gao family. What they don't have, my Family has; what my Family doesn't have, they certainly can't have!"

"What if it's a beauty? Does your Gao family have a beauty like Ling Wu?"

"..."

Gao Yueting fell silent.

The only one in the Gao family who could rival Zhao Lingwu was herself, but she was already married.

"Therefore, I advise you to provoke Zhao Lingwu less now. If you piss off that little Chen Xuan, the people from the Xuan Yang Sect might just arrive."

"And what about you? Although you married into the Zhao Family, you're someone who can't lay eggs. All the benefits will be obtained by that piece of trash, and in the future, the status of your Huang Family will be in jeopardy!"

"You Gao Yueting, I kindly reminded you, and this is how you speak? Who are you calling someone who can't lay eggs? Have you laid any?" Huang Meihua raised her hand and struck a palm at Gao Yueting.

Seeing this, Gao Yueting lightly dodged to the side, avoiding it.

"Huang Meihua, who do you think you are? How dare you make a move against this consort?!"

Huang Meihua gritted her teeth and said, "Gao Yueting, let me tell you, don't think I don't know about you funneling talent to your Gao family from the Prince's Mansion. Don't think I don't know what kind of shady business your Gao family is doing behind the scenes!"

Gao Yueting's expression changed, and she said, "Huang Meihua, don't talk nonsense!"

Huang Meihua sneered and said, "Hmph, am I talking nonsense? Do you think you did it very secretly? Do you think I'm blind?"

"You're courting death!"

Gao Yueting couldn't sit still anymore and attacked Huang Meihua directly. The two women started fighting again, clashing away. Unfortunately, both of them were poor at Cultivating.

Although both were at the Early Stage of Foundation Establishment, piled up with massive resources from their Families, they had never fought anyone other than each other! They had been fighting for so long, yet they hadn't made a single bit of commotion; instead, the two women were drenched in sweat and panting for breath.

"Alright! Today, I'll count it as your win. I just want to know, are you, are you really willing to watch the Zhao Family rise, and have it have nothing to do with you?" Gao Yueting panted.

"What else can I do? In the end, I am just a woman with no power to truss a chicken. I can't think of any way to benefit my Huang Family," Huang Meihua said helplessly.

In her eyes, she was the most failed woman among the legitimate daughters of the three Families. At least Gao Yueting had some power in her hands and could secure benefits for the Gao family.

As for her, although she had a superior status and position in the Zhao Family, she had no real power in her hands. All power was in the hands of Zhao Yi and Zhao Weiwu, and she could only be a vase, living her days in a daze.

"Sigh, I'm really not reconciled. That Zhao Lingwu, she has good talent and strong strength, avoiding political marriage. And now with a son-in-law entering the Family, she married someone so excellent and handsome!" Gao Yueting sat dejectedly on the meditation cushion.

"Who says otherwise."

"No, I'm not reconciled! In the future, if you have any intelligence regarding Chen Xuan, just notify me."

"What do you want to do?"

"Nothing, as long as you provide the information, I will give your Huang Family corresponding compensation."
