The Road to Becoming a Son-in-Law

Chapter 50 The Ring Was Worn on the Wrong Person

"Holy crap, this thing is sucking my blood."

Chen Feng looked horrified, but when he turned around, he saw a complicated expression on Chen Ya's face. He immediately asked, "By the way, what did you just say?"

Chen Ya was about to speak when she saw the box open with a "click," revealing a thing lying quietly inside.

"ring?"

What was hidden inside surprised even Chen Feng.

What I spent so long hiding was just a broken ring?

However, the moment he picked it up, he noticed that something was wrong with it.

A ring that looks exactly like it's made of wood, but feels like cold steel.

This peculiar tactile sensation immediately changed his expression.

The wooden ring he was wearing on his wrist was made of this material.

I vividly remember my master saying that if anything happens to this ancient Yin wood, it will surely bring great disaster.

But for martial artists, it is indeed extremely precious; even a small piece is enough to make people scramble for it.

However, there is only one family in the world that can use this kind of wood: the ancient martial arts Chen family.

"Master, can you bring me this?" Chen Feng asked when he was young.

"Legends are just legends. It doesn't matter who wears it or not, but it's perfect for you."

"why?"

"Because your surname is Chen!"

Back then, what my master said seemed like a joke.

He was indeed surnamed Chen, but he was from the Chen family of Jiangnan, a Chen family that had been wiped out.

But now it seems that everything had a deeper meaning.

Because his surname is Chen, but this Chen is not from the Chen family of Jiangnan, but rather...

"Brother Chen Feng, what's wrong?"

Chen Ya tilted her head and looked at him with her big eyes. "Why are you spacing out?"

"I just realized something now," Chen Feng said with a smile.

This time, without any doubt, he smoothly put the ring into his pocket and said, "I've done what I needed to do."

Chen Ya stared blankly at him, hesitant to speak, not fully understanding what had happened.

But seeing that Chen Feng had already left, she quickly followed him out.

But no sooner had they returned outside than a burnt smell suddenly wafted from the basement.

Chen Feng reacted quickly and scooped her up.

The next second, flames suddenly appeared from nowhere and instantly burned the entire basement to the ground.

Chen Ya opened her mouth in fear, too afraid to speak.

Chen Feng paused for a moment, then laughed: "So cautious, is this the Chen family?"

At this moment, Chen Feng, who had previously shown no interest in his own background, finally had a clear purpose for the next moment.

After Chen Feng brought Chen Ya back to the villa, he locked the door and pondered the purpose of the ring.

This rustic ring has no decorations whatsoever; it looks like a shabby ring that was simply dug off a tree.

The only good thing about this ring is its texture.

Just then, the downstairs door opened.

"Sister, let me explain, I really didn't know about this." It was Fang Hui's voice.

I never expected Mu Qianxue to bring this woman home after get off work.

Chen Feng stretched and looked downstairs.

"I believe my investigation." Unlike before, Mu Qianxue showed no extra expression at this moment.

She ignored her and walked in.

Just then, Chen Feng came down from upstairs.

"Cousin, have you forgotten that we are your family too? How could I harm you? Did that country bumpkin say something to you?"

Fang Hui angrily pointed at Chen Feng upstairs.

Chen Feng looked bewildered. What did this have to do with him?

Unexpectedly, Mu Qianxue said, "This is the client's request, and it's a matter for our Mu family company. Fang Hui, you're meddling a bit too much."

Fang Hui sneered: "Then why won't you lend me money, and why won't you arrange a job for our Fang family? Isn't that because you're a kept man?"

Mu Qianxue gritted her teeth, about to retort to this unreasonable guy.

Chen Feng is not only shameless, but also incredibly fast.

He coldly replied, "You may not look clever, but you have good eyesight. I'm so outstanding, of course you have to listen to me in these matters."

"What does it mean that I was able to get this position in just a few days?"

Chen Feng swaggered down and said, "You're supposed to pay back what you borrowed, right? Pay back what you borrowed before first."

"What...what's it to you!"

Fang Hui was furious.

The fact that the Fu family was not cooperating with the Mu family immediately made the Fang family members, who only received money, somewhat worried.

In order to secure their future, they sent Fang Hui to ask for money.

Unexpectedly, Mu Qianxue, who had been so agreeable before, refused outright.

This infuriated Fang Hui. Mu Qianxue would never have done this before, and she was only acting this way tonight because of Chen Feng.

Chen Feng touched the woman's hand and exclaimed in admiration that her logical thinking was truly superior, then calmly took his hand out of his pocket.

Unexpectedly, the wooden ring fell out.

It circled on the ground once, and then, under Chen Feng's gaze, ran to Fang Hui's feet.

Fang Hui noticed it, of course.

She couldn't wait to sneer, then mocked harshly, "Haha, a ring? You dare to bring out such an ugly ring? Is it for my cousin?!"

She picked it up immediately.

The touch was cold and smooth, but there was still no denying that the ring was nothing more than a piece of black wood!

"Cousin! Look at you! What kind of men have you married? They can't even afford a real ring! Hahaha, they actually got a piece of wood?"

Fang Hui's expression was one of pleasure, and she thoroughly mocked Mu Qianxue.

Mu Qianxue was initially somewhat taken aback.

Their marriage was nothing more than a marriage in name only.

But she didn't expect that Chen Feng would secretly carve a ring for her.

Although, it's quite ugly...

Although it's still made of wood...

Her face inexplicably turned red, and just from that expression, Chen Feng almost blurted out: Why are you blushing!

This is a treasure!

"Give it back to me!" he gritted his teeth, trying to snatch it away.

Fang Hui thought his secret had been exposed, so she immediately sneered, grabbed Mu Qianxue's hand, and slipped it onto her ring finger.

"It'll probably suit my cousin better, this lousy ring!" Fang Hui sneered.

Chen Feng's eyes widened.

That ring, which he still doesn't understand, simply slipped onto Mu Qianxue's ring finger and disappeared.

Fang Hui had already let go and wasn't paying attention, but seeing Chen Feng's eagerness, she couldn't help but feel smug.

"That's a treasure!" Chen Feng resisted the urge to throw her out and grabbed Mu Qianxue's hand to look at her.

There was no ring on her ring finger, only a black coil-like mark.

He was stunned, realizing that the ring had imbued Mu Qianxue with spiritual energy.

Is this the correct way to use a ring?

How the hell are you going to get it back?
