Honey, you didn't really drugged me, did you?-Chapter 183 - 113 Husband, are you hiding something from me_6

He must be insane.

On the side with Chen Jie and Su Yunjin,

Su Yunjin, following behind Chen Jie, saw her husband’s worried expression and said, "Husband, if you think there’s something wrong with Third Miss Hua, I will stop contacting her and avoid her a bit."

Chen Jie responded after hearing this, "No need to deliberately avoid her, it’s not good to seem too obvious."

Su Yunjin said, "Husband, do you think she poses a threat to your safety? Should we inform the Hall Master about it?"

Chen Jie said, "We don’t know yet if this person is friend or foe, let’s just watch for a while."

Chen Jie thought to himself that it would be better to wait for the intelligence report in the evening to see if he could learn anything about this woman.

This woman is indeed strange; Chen Jie didn’t believe she would befriend Su Yunjin for no reason. After all, there must be a reason behind everything.

If Chen Jie couldn’t understand it, he shouldn’t disrupt the current situation.

No matter what she wanted to do, he decided to wait and see.

With this in mind, the three of them had breakfast. Chen Jie then escorted the two women back home, and at that time, a carriage arrived outside.

The coachman was someone Chen Jie recognized; it was Si Xi.

Si Xi brought the carriage to a halt and said, "Fifth Master."

When Chen Jie came out and saw him, Si Xi said, "Fifth Master, I’ve come to take you to White Tiger Hall."

"Oh, thank you."

Chen Jie followed Si Xi onto the carriage, instructed Su Yunjin not to wait for him for dinner that evening, and then headed straight for White Tiger Hall.

White Tiger Hall was bustling with activity at that moment. Red lanterns hung at the entrance of White Tiger Hall, adorned with various colorful streamers, and the mansion was bustling with people coming and going. Tables were set up in the courtyard, clearly for a banquet.

When Chen Jie arrived, Feng Xuan led him to see Peng Shizhong.

Peng Shizhong said, "Hmm, Jiu Si, I have taken care of your matter without leaving any loose ends, so there’s no need to worry."

"Thank you so much, foster father."

Chen Jie thanked Peng Shizhong with a salute, to which Peng Shizhong replied, "It’s nothing, you shall stay by my side today."

"Yes, foster father."

Chen Jie agreed and then followed Peng Shizhong.

Meanwhile, Feng Xuan said, "Why hasn’t Sixth Brother come yet?"

Just as he was muttering, suddenly a rush of hurried footsteps was heard, followed by Zhou Chu hurrying over, although he was clearly limping.

His whole appearance was like that of a frostbitten eggplant, and there were two noticeable blue circles around his eyes—it seemed like he had been punched in both eyes.

Seeing Zhou Chu’s condition, Peng Shizhong frowned and asked, "Why are you in such a sorry state?"

Hearing this, Zhou Chu laughed and said, "Nothing to worry about, foster father, I just accidentally knocked myself."

Chen Jie couldn’t help but snort with laughter when he saw Zhou Chu’s appearance, and Peng Shizhong asked, "Fifth Brother, do you know what happened?"

Chen Jie shook his head and said, "I don’t know, but Sixth Brother just looks a bit comical."

Peng Shizhong stated, "We shouldn’t ridicule him."

Chen Jie immediately saluted and said, "Yes."

Hearing this, Zhou Chu glared at Chen Jie, who then whispered to Zhou Chu, "Old Zhou, are you okay?"

Zhou Chu moved his eyes around and said, "What could be wrong with me?"

Chen Jie insisted, "Your eyes are like this, and you’re still asking what could be wrong? Was it a pretty fierce fight yesterday?"

"Huh, who dares to hit me?"

Zhou Chu claimed, "My place in the family is solid, and no blowing about it!"

Chen Jie retorted, "Next time you boast, could you please look at yourself first? Your eyes are all black and swollen, and you still boast."

"I... Don’t go spreading this around, okay?"

Zhou Chu’s face fell.

Chen Jie laughed and said, "Understood, but there’s no need to say more; your appearance speaks for itself!"

Hearing this, Zhou Chu lamented, "That woman really packed a punch!"

Chen Jie remarked, "It wasn’t too bad, just a pair of black eyes."

"It was more than that!"

When Chen Jie inquired further, Zhou Chu revealed, "Internal injuries!"

Chen Jie, surprised, asked, "What kind of internal injuries?"

Zhou Chu looked at Chen Jie and said, "Seven times, a full seven times!"

"What on earth, seven times?"

Zhou Chu hinted, "What else could it be... uh!"

Chen Jie raised his hand and mimicked the action...

Zhou Chu nodded in pain, and Chen Jie’s eyes widened as he said, "Seven times, you’ve got quite a sturdy body."

Zhou Chu complained, "Brother, I’ve really suffered!"

"If only I’d known, I’d have let her beat me up instead, rather than... ouch..."

Zhou Chu looked like he was on the verge of tears, and Chen Jie patted his shoulder, saying, "It must have been somewhat enjoyable."

Zhou Chu recounted, "The first time, the second time, they weren’t too bad, but by the fifth, sixth, seventh time, it felt like torture, worse than a beating."

"Condolences, condolences."

Chen Jie patted Zhou Chu’s shoulder, quite moved by the ordeal. This thing was indeed brutish. Didn’t you like to seek out women?

Here you go, I too am a woman!

Chen Jie shivered at the thought; after all, Zhou Chu’s wife was Second Madam Sun.

Chen Jie had never seen her, but just by the name, he could sense a murderous vibe. It was a wonder Zhou Chu was still alive and able to attend the banquet!

As he was pondering this, suddenly an announcement was heard from outside, "A guest has arrived!"

Saying this, a group carrying gifts entered, one after another. Feng Xuan and Zheng Chuan were at the door to greet the guests.

When it was Peng Shizhong’s time to appear, it would be for the important figures.

The guests brought various gifts, following which they would come to greet Peng Shizhong and compliment Chen Jie and Zhou Chu as young talents, and praise Peng Shizhong for having a Qilin’er.

However, every guest who said these words would look at Zhou Chu in surprise.

"Is this, natural, or...?"

People pointed at Zhou Chu’s eyes and asked, and Zhou Chu feigned an indifferent expression, saying, "Natural, natural."

Because of this, Zhou Chu later got a nickname in the Jianghu: Black-eyed Bear—Zhou Chu!

It was to describe Zhou Chu’s sincere and honest demeanor. What kind of bear has black eyes? The panda, of course!

After sending away about twenty groups of guests, suddenly a voice was heard from outside: "Guild Leader Nan of the Fishing Guild has arrived!"

Hearing this, everyone perked up.

The Guild Leader Nan?

The leader of the Thirteen Grand Protectors, Nan Batian, was he really here?
