Beautiful CEO's Super Expert-Chapter 1690: You Should Be Grateful!
Afterwards, the two continued to chat casually. Su Chen spoke quite humorously, making Jiang Shiqi laugh from time to time!
Just then, the sound of footsteps approached. They both looked towards the sound and saw a well-dressed middle-aged man walking over!
Su Chen only glanced at him and then turned his head back!
As he turned his head, he noticed the smile on Jiang Shiqi's face suddenly disappeared!
Could it be that Jiang Shiqi knows him?
Or maybe he is here to find Jiang Shiqi?!
The next moment, Su Chen's thoughts were confirmed.
"Shiqi, who is he?"
As the middle-aged man passed by Su Chen, he scrutinized Su Chen with a glance and asked.
"He's just staying here!"
Jiang Shiqi said calmly:
"Why are you here?"
"Shiqi, is this how you talk to me? After all, I am your second uncle!"
The middle-aged man snorted:
"Of course, I have something to talk to you about!"
Su Chen did not expect that this middle-aged man was Jiang Shiqi's second uncle!
It seemed that their relationship wasn't great!
Of course, this was a family affair, and he didn't know the specifics, so it wasn't good for him to say anything!
At this moment, the middle-aged man looked at him again and said:
"Young man, you need to know your place. Some people are out of your league!"
His tone was somewhat cold, filled with a warning!
When Su Chen heard this, he frowned slightly!
"What, are you not convinced?!"
The middle-aged man saw Su Chen's expression and snorted disdainfully:
"A kid at the late stage of Earth's Ultimate Realm, and he dares to reach for high branches in our Jiang Family!"
"Second Uncle, what exactly do you want?"
At this moment, Jiang Shiqi immediately said sternly:
"I said, we're just neighbors!"
"Let's hope so!"
The middle-aged man muttered.
But he wasn't entirely convinced, because when he came over just now, he saw the two talking and laughing, and Jiang Shiqi seemed genuinely happy!
This was indeed rare, making it hard for him to believe they were just ordinary neighbors!
It was precisely for this reason that he issued a warning!
"You should be glad you're Shiqi's second uncle!"
At this moment, Su Chen said lightly.
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man's face instantly darkened, and he said coldly:
"What do you mean?"
"It's simple. If it weren't for Shiqi's sake, you wouldn't be standing here so easily now!"
Su Chen said casually, as if stating a fact!
Indeed, the other party's attitude just now was quite irritating. If it weren't for his connection to Jiang Shiqi, Su Chen wouldn't have let it go so easily!
He wasn't petty, but he wasn't so magnanimous as to let someone walk over him!
Especially towards this middle-aged man who showed hostility from the start!
However, upon hearing Su Chen's words, the middle-aged man's face instantly displayed a mix of surprise and rage!
"Haha, kid, I think you don't know your limits!"
The middle-aged man laughed out of anger, with a sharp glint shooting from his eyes!
The next moment, a formidable pressure akin to a mountain's weight was released!
Because of Jiang Shiqi, he wouldn't kill this kid for now, but a lesson was definitely necessary!
However, just as he intended to make a move, a figure flashed by and stood directly in front of Su Chen!
"Second Uncle, if you have something to say, say it inside. Otherwise, please leave!"
Jiang Shiqi said coldly.
She did not plead but directly shifted the topic!
"Shiqi, are you still saying you're just neighbors?"
The middle-aged man snorted.
"I just don't want innocent people to get involved because of me!"
Jiang Shiqi said calmly.
However, her heart was not as calm as she appeared!
She was really startled just now and did not expect Su Chen to be so bold as to speak those words to her second uncle!
She originally didn't want to show that they had any connection, but if she didn't step up just now, given his late-stage cultivation, Su Chen would probably have been seriously injured if not dead!
She had no choice but to stand in front of him!
Inwardly, she couldn't help but mutter: Why is this guy being so reckless now!
"Hmph!"
The middle-aged man flicked his robe and then turned around to enter Jiang Shiqi's residence!
"Thanks a lot!"
Su Chen said with a cheeky smile.
He found it somewhat special. Previously in Wild Bat City, it was Nie Qianqian standing in front of him, and now Jiang Shiqi was standing in front of him!
Could it be that in their hearts, he was really that useless?!
At these words, Jiang Shiqi couldn't help but roll her eyes, then walked towards the courtyard as well.
Su Chen stayed for a moment before heading back as well.
As for Jiang Shiqi, although she and her second uncle didn't seem to get along, things shouldn't get too bad!
However, Su Chen had a feeling that her second uncle's visit was likely related to Jiang Shiqi's recent worries!
But since Jiang Shiqi didn't want to talk about it, he wouldn't press her!
After returning to his room, Su Chen continued his cultivation. After all, he was about to break through to the late stage of the Earth's Ultimate Realm, so he needed to spend some time stabilizing his realm!
Su Chen cultivated for an hour and faintly heard the sound of footsteps, suggesting that Jiang Shiqi's second uncle had left!
After completing a cycle of his cultivation technique, Su Chen, not entirely at ease, went next door for a look.
Because once her so-called second uncle had arrived, Jiang Shiqi's mood and state seemed off!
.....
When he entered, Jiang Shiqi's face appeared somewhat gloomy, also a bit lost!
"Are you okay?"
Su Chen asked gently.
"I'm fine."
Jiang Shiqi forced a faint smile and shook her head:
"Don't worry."
"Alright, if you ever need someone to talk to, I'm a good listener!"
Su Chen smiled slightly.
Hearing Su Chen's words, Jiang Shiqi felt a gentle warmth flow through her heart, and she nodded:
"Thank you!"
"No need to be so polite. We're friends, right?"
Su Chen chuckled:
"Didn't you just protect me?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Shiqi couldn't help but laugh:
"You're really something! Everything else is quite good, but sometimes you're just too much!"
What Jiang Shiqi referred to was naturally Su Chen being overly arrogant.
"Do you know what my second uncle's cultivation is?"
Speaking of this, Jiang Shiqi couldn't help but go on:
"He is at about the Sixth Turn of the Cave Void Realm. Just think, if I hadn't intervened, and he really made a move, could you have handled it?"
"Thank you, Miss Jiang, for saving my life!"
Su Chen pretended to bow, joking with a smile.
"Get out of here!"
Jiang Shiqi couldn't help but burst into laughter and retorted!
