The Crazy Son-In-Law

After leaving the Tan Manor, Xiao Shun walked to the pavilion and waved at Duan Jia and the others, signaling them to leave together.

Everyone was curious since he had only been inside for a few minutes.

“Boss, did you handle it that quickly?” Wang Fatty asked after getting in the car.

Before Xiao Shun could answer, Zhuang Jin interjected, “That’s normal. Our boss’s prowess is unmatched. How could the Tan family possibly contend with his dominance?”NôvelDrama.Org owns this.

Hearing this, Duan Jia, who was driving, teased him, “Oh, Old Zhuang, since when did you go from being a fierce king to a sycophant king?”

“Get lost!” Zhuang Jin glared at him. “With our boss’s strength, do I even need to flatter him? Just look at how many times the Tan family has fallen into his hands. Whether it’s Tan Enterprises or the Kowloon Chamber of Commerce, they’ve all been utterly defeated.”

Zhuang Jin was straightforward and held great respect for Xiao Shun but didn’t blindly praise him. He spoke with honesty.

“That’s true,” Duan Jia nodded and continued, “The Tan family is a classic example of not knowing their place. We gave them a lesson last time, yet they still dared to dream of reclaiming Tan Group. How naive!”

Zhuang Jin turned to look at Xiao Shun, who appeared calm and collected, pondering. Given how quickly their boss had returned from the Tan family, he must not have troubled them much. Knowing Xiao Shun’s character, it wasn’t out of the question.

“Boss,” Zhuang Jin suddenly spoke up, “how did you handle it this time? Some ingrates are beyond saving. Should I take some men and flatten the Tan family to avoid future trouble?”

Xiao Shun shook his head. “No need. From now on, the Tan family won’t be able to threaten our operations in Harrow.”

“What do you mean by that?” Wang Fatty asked, puzzled.

“I gave Tan Haohan two days to hand over all shares of Tan Group and ordered them to leave Harrow and live in another city,” Xiao Shun explained.

“That’s letting them off easy,” Zhuang Jin sighed helplessly. In his view, the Tan family deserved a harsher punishment to learn their lesson. But since their boss had already made arrangements, he couldn’t say much more.

“Let’s not mention the Tan family anymore; they’re history now,” Xiao Shun said as he gazed at the bustling streets outside.

Next, Duan Jia took them to a local food stall and called Xiaofei and Wuya to join them for drinks. These two were now significant figures in Qingzun Harrow Branch and wouldn’t dare refuse an invitation from an internationally renowned bodyguard king like Xiao Shun.

Xiao Shun initially wanted to go home to spend time with Yao Cen but couldn’t refuse Duan Jia’s insistence and stayed.

In the late-night alleyway, they drank heartily and chatted with arms around each other’s shoulders.

After several rounds of drinks, Xiao Shun noticed it was already past eleven and decided to leave first. Everyone understood since he was married and not single like them.

When he got home and entered the bedroom, Yao Cen’s voice greeted him with mock anger.

“Where have you been? You reek of alcohol.”

“Missed me?” Xiao Shun raised an eyebrow smugly.

Yao Cen rolled her eyes at him. “Narcissist!”

Though serious outside, Xiao Shun dropped all pretense with his wife. He quickly moved to the bed and kissed her cheek.

After last night’s passionate encounter, he no longer pretended to be reserved. Especially with his wife-acting prudish would be foolish.

Yao Cen half-heartedly pushed him away and said shyly, “You stink! Go take a shower!”

“Hehe, yes ma’am!” Xiao Shun laughed wickedly and dashed into the bathroom.

Soon, the sound of running water filled the room.

Sitting on the bed with a blush on her cheeks, Yao Cen looked enchanting under the dim light like a ripe apple tempting anyone who saw her.

She gazed dreamily at the bathroom door, feeling a warm anticipation building inside her.

Suddenly, the water stopped, and the room lights dimmed.

Then…

After three rounds of passionate battle on their love field, Xiao Shun emerged victorious.

Yao Cen leaned against his arm, sweating but contented. Seeing his wife so docile like a kitten filled Xiao Shun with immense satisfaction. Indeed, men have certain advantages in some areas. At this moment, his position as head of the household was unshakable.

Stroking Yao Cen’s silky hair, Xiao Shun smiled softly. “In two days we’ll return to Jianghai.”

Yao Cen pondered for a moment before replying, “I’ll try my best; after all, there’s still the matter with the Tan family…”

Before she could finish her sentence, Xiao Shun interrupted with a smile: “Hehe, everything there has been resolved.”

“Hmm?” Yao Cen looked puzzled.

Xiao Shun never hid anything from his wife. He then explained what happened at the Tan family’s tonight.

“Did Tan Haohan really agree to hand over Tan Group?” Yao Cen asked in disbelief.

She never doubted her husband’s abilities but was surprised by how things unfolded so quickly. The downfall of the Tan family was inevitable but seeing someone as ambitious as Ningzhou’s richest man surrendering so easily was unexpected.

Seeing his wife deep in thought, Xiao Shun playfully pinched her cheek. “Don’t worry about other things; focus on taking over Tan Enterprises in two days.”

He hadn’t told Yao Cen about his secret maneuvers against the Tan family. Handling those hidden threats himself was his way of protecting her from unnecessary stress.

At this moment, Yao Cen looked deeply into Xiao Shun’s eyes filled with tender affection and whispered sweetly: “Thank you.”

She was smart enough to deduce many things without being told explicitly. Since managing Xinghui Company, she had faced no significant troubles-a rarity for any entrepreneur-clearly indicating someone was protecting her behind the scenes. And who else could it be but her husband?
