This scrutiny carried dissatisfaction and hidden hostility, with a hint of selection, like a hostess looking at clothes she wasn't entirely satisfied with but had to buy for some reason!

Yes, it was that feeling of not really liking it, not wanting to accept it, but having to tolerate it for the time being!

Guan Ya couldn't help but frown, but more than that, she was puzzled, wondering why her mother's friend would treat her with such an attitude.

"Ya Ya, you're here." Fu Xue greeted her daughter with a smile and introduced her to Chen Shu.

"This is my daughter, Guan Ya. Ya Ya, this is Aunt Chen, the one your mother has mentioned many times."

At this point, Chen Shu had already retracted her critical gaze and smiled approvingly. "She is indeed beautiful, even more beautiful than your mother was when she was young!"

Although she wasn't entirely satisfied with this daughter-in-law, Chen Shu couldn't find fault with her appearance.

Guan Ya hung her bag on the coat rack, and a sweet smile bloomed on her exquisite and beautiful mixed-race face. "Hello, Aunt Chen, thank you for the compliment."

Chen Shu hummed and asked knowingly, "Do you have a boyfriend?"

Guan Ya first looked at her mother and, seeing a slight embarrassment on her face, immediately withdrew her smile. "No!"

Her tone was much colder!

She had discerned from her mother's micro-expressions that Aunt Chen knew about her boyfriend, Yuanshi Tianzun, and that Yuanshi Tianzun had recently returned to The Way of the Extraordinary!

What was the point of mentioning it on purpose at this moment?

Guan Ya remained silent with a straight face, feeling unhappy and also not wanting to appear too relaxed about her boyfriend's return to The Way of the Extraordinary.

Seeing the heavy atmosphere at the dining table, Fu Xue quickly smoothed things over. "Ya Ya, Aunt Chen has a son who is said to be a handsome and outstanding talent. She keeps asking me to play matchmaker, wanting you to be her daughter-in-law!"

There's really no need. What kind of misfits are you trying to introduce me to? Guan Ya gave a disapproving but polite smile, and then saw the hint of dissatisfaction in the smile of Chen Shu opposite her!

Fu Xue cleared her throat and asked with an unchanged smile, "Jumang, where is he? Why didn't he come with you? Is he held up by work? Will he be here later?"

Hearing this, Chen Shu also looked back at Guan Ya.

Hmm? This woman seems a little nervous and resistant, but also somewhat expectant and gentle? As a scout, Guan Ya keenly perceived Aunt Chen's emotions.

Somewhat surprised and confused!

"He has to have dinner with a specialist from headquarters, Chris Gustav." Guan Ya said.

Chris Gustav? Fu Xue thought for a second and suddenly realized, "The Demon Lord's lover, isn't that going to cause a fight with Winnie Berent?" She looked like she was gossiping and eating melons.

Chen Shu lowered her head, took a sip of tea, and changed the subject. "Did Ya Ya have any boyfriends before she knew Yuanshi Tianzun?"

Guan Ya smiled politely. "My first love, and I don't plan on having any boyfriends in the future!"

She was blocking the road in advance, so that this aunt wouldn't really try to introduce her son to her, although she felt from Chen Shu's attitude that the other party looked down on her a little!

Chen Shu nodded. "What level are you now? I heard from Fu Xue that you were promoted to Saint this year, is that right?"

Guan Ya said, "Level five late stage!"

"Your leveling speed is not bad!" Chen Shu nodded slightly, expressing her approval.

Guan Ya frowned. This woman was clearly an ordinary person, yet she had the air of commenting on a mediocre junior!

"I heard that the Fu family wants you to marry into the Miller family. Now that Yuanshi Tianzun has returned to The Way of the Extraordinary, what are your thoughts?" Chen Shu asked, in a casual tone, "I'm just asking, you don't have to answer if you don't want to!"

As expected, Guan Ya ignored her!

Fu Xue glared at her daughter and said, "Well, after Yuanshi returned to The Way of the Extraordinary, the elders of the family did want to bring up the matter again and have Guan Ya marry into the Miller family! The Miller family agreed, but there was a condition. They wanted Guan Ya to marry with Yuanshi's relics!"

Chen Shu sneered, "What do they want?"

Fu Xue lowered her voice. "The Miller family wants the Sacrificial Heaven Set. The elders of the Miller family initially didn't agree. After negotiations between the two sides, they finally reached an agreement. The Sacrificial Heaven Set would be shared by the Fu family and the Miller family. Ya Ya would marry with two pieces of the Sacrificial Heaven Set and half of the relics. The Miller family would take over all of the Fu family's assets in Europe and the Free Federation at a high price, and give 5% of the Miller family's future ten-year family income to the Fu family free of charge."

Chen Shu sneered repeatedly, "They're really good at calculating!"

Guan Ya was stunned when she heard this. "Mom, how come I don't know about these things?"

Fu Xue rolled her eyes at her daughter. "Because Fu Qingyang didn't agree. Fu Qingyang said that Yuanshi Tianzun was supported by him, and Yuanshi Tianzun's relics should belong to him. This is the return on his investment. If the elders of the family and the Miller family dare to rob him of his things, they can wait to go to war with the Five Elements Alliance!"

"Fu Qingyang is now one of the people in power of the Five Elements Alliance, on par with the Nine Elders. The elders of the family don't dare to offend him either!"

"Oh, so Fu Qingyang is carrying everything!" Guan Ya nodded, indicating that she understood!

In fact, she no longer takes the elders of the family very seriously. Besides her boyfriend and cousin, she herself is a level 5 swordsman, with a large pile of Saint props lying in her inventory. There are also many props in the Warehouse of the Returned Dead. It's not a problem to reach level 6 this year!

With such strength, she can become a mainstay in any organization!

"Actually, marrying into the Miller family is not bad." Chen Shu said with a smile, "Matching social status is very important. This directly determines the quality of life and future development prospects after marriage!"

"Hmm!"

It was a compliment for Fu Xue's daughter to marry her son. At this time, the waiter pushed open the door and asked if the guests could start serving the dishes. After receiving a positive answer, he bowed and retreated.

In a private room more than ten meters away, Sean Mede, William, and Zhang Yuanqing were having dinner with the young lady of the Gustav family!

Zhang Yuanqing was able to sit here, half because of his great achievements and distinguished military exploits, and half because he represented the Five Elements Alliance!

Chris put down her knife and fork and took some fine feed from the porcelain dish beside her and put it into the glass fish tank!

The colorful little fish, Ruth, swayed its fish tail lightly, and its delicate fish lips opened and closed, swallowing the feed floating on the surface of the water!

Then, she said娇声, "The master has seen the situation in New Covenant County in the report, but the details are not very clear. Can the three of you tell me more about it?"

Sean Mede led the way. "No problem."

He immediately began to tell the various details after the confrontation between the two major camps in New Covenant County, the early stage, the big sweep of the gangsters, the middle stage, the continuous assassinations of celebrities in the political and business circles, the late stage, the Saints playing, until the night of the port.

During this period, there were many disputes between the orderly organizations in the First District that Zhang Yuanqing had never been exposed to!

Chris listened patiently. Ruth in the fish tank said, "Headquarters has assigned me two tasks in New Covenant County, one is to replace Channing's work and assist the New Covenant County branch in fighting the evil camp, and the other task is to find out the evil camp's conspiracy."

"Winnie once sent an email to headquarters to report that the evil camp is waiting for the opportunity to destroy the Sea God Church."

"Headquarters asked me to find out about this. What does the Sea God Church think?"

"The Sea God Church doesn't want to interfere in the struggle between the Merchant Guild and the Dionysus Club, even if it later escalated into a camp war. The Sea God Church often slacks off! It wasn't until Winnie sent that email to the headquarters of Heavenly Punishment that the Sea God Church reluctantly played!" Sean Mede smiled bitterly.

"The Sea God Church doesn't believe our information!" Ruth in the fish tank sneered, "That's right, a group of arrogant, irritable, and low-quality sea monsters, their IQ is only slightly stronger than the fire masters of the Second District!" After saying that, Chris gave Ruth a cold stare!

The little fish was so scared that it shrank to the bottom of the tank!

Who did the fire masters offend, why do people in the First District also humiliate the fire masters!

Zhang Yuanqing felt indignant for Hong Ji Ge! Sean explained, "The news was provided by Jumang, from the demon beast Hass!"

The demon beast Hass is a peak Saint. How could it know the secret of destroying an orderly organization! Jumang is a foreigner, providing false information, who knows if it's true or false!

Regardless of their level or origin, it is destined that the Sea God Church will not believe this matter too much!

Chris suddenly realized and couldn't help but take a few more glances at Jumang. Winnie Berent's report mentioned the source of the information! Heavenly Punishment headquarters attaches so much importance to it because of Winnie's level!

This means that Winnie trusts Jumang very much and believes that the information is not false!

The three of them ate fish and talked, and after two bottles of red wine, Zhang Yuanqing saw that the atmosphere was harmonious, and immediately asked, "Miss, I have something I want to ask you!"

Chris put down her knife and looked over in surprise!

"Speak!" The words were simple, Ruth said!

"I heard that you and the Demon Lord are in a relationship. I would like to ask you on behalf of Elder Fu Qingyang, did the Demon Lord give you a fragment of the key to the Immortal Feather Gate treasure vault?"

The atmosphere of the banquet fell into a strange silence!

Sean and Ocido looked at each other, wondering if this kid was tired of living? Otherwise, why would he dance ballet in a minefield!

Everyone knows that Miss Chris hates to hear the words Demon Lord the most. The Demon Lord's licentious behavior has disappointed Chris. During the month when she and Winnie fought over jealousy and were imprisoned by headquarters, the Demon Lord did not visit. The two were lovers, without learning a lesson. He turned his head and went into Donna's body and went to Wushan with her.

Evening and early morning were covered with white frost. After being released from prison, Chris broke off with the Demon Lord and hated him because of love. She could no longer hear the word Demon Lord.

"Wake up, wake up!!!"

In a daze, Zhang Yuanqing felt someone pushing him. He opened his eyes and felt dizzy. He had a hangover headache.

"Section Chief Sean!" Looking at the middle-aged man with golden short hair in front of him, and then looking at the messy dining table, he suddenly remembered that he was having dinner with Miss Chris? He drank too much wine?

"Did I drink too much wine?" Zhang Yuanqing asked with an unclear mind.

"You were knocked unconscious by the young lady!" Sean Mede squinted at him!

"Did the young lady finally answer my question!" Zhang Yuanqing said unwillingly. He reached out and touched the back of his head, and felt a swollen bump!

Tsk~~She hit hard!

"What do you think?" Sean Mede looked at him expressionlessly, with a look of pity in his eyes, "Don't mention the Demon Lord in front of the young lady. You don't know that the sea monsters are arrogant and irritable, and it is difficult to control their temper!"

It seems that the Demon Lord's key fragment is not on Chris, then it is probably on Winnie Fred or Elena! Zhang Yuanqing said in his heart, "It's worth being beaten!"

At ten o'clock in the evening, Zhang Yuanqing took Sean Mede's car back to the bank building, went to his room first, and then used Star Teleportation to come to Guan Ya's bedroom.

Guan Ya was wearing white practice clothes, sitting on the ground with her legs crossed, feeling the sword intent.

"Today's dinner was not pleasant!" Zhang Yuanqing told her about being knocked unconscious!

Guan Ya opened her eyes after listening and said with a smile, "This is a normal woman. I don't understand what those women who were abandoned by the Demon Lord are thinking about! But the Demon Lord is a lucky person, his peach blossoms are strong and there is no peach blossom evil, otherwise, with his style, he would have died in the hands of women!"

Her tone was very disdainful and contemptuous of the Demon Lord, who had a chaotic relationship between men and women!

"How was dinner tonight?" Zhang Yuanqing sat on the bed and picked up the Scorpio doll.

Guan Ya shook her head. "It wasn't very pleasant. Fu Xue's friend has inexplicable hostility towards me, and her words are sarcastic. She is clearly an ordinary person, but she is so confident that she seems to look down on me!"

"Oh."

Zhang Yuanqing just asked casually and was not interested in his mother-in-law and her friends!

After Guan Ya complained, she said, "Fu Xue is here to talk about business. She wants to sign a contract with the Heavenly Punishment Branch to build a factory in New Covenant County and supply mechanical weapons to the orderly organizations in the First District. Can you help with this?"

The business is not difficult to negotiate, but if her boyfriend can come forward to cooperate, it will be faster and more efficient!

After all, Jumang's reputation in New Covenant County is second only to the Dominator!

"I will talk to Sean Mede tomorrow!" Zhang Yuanqing nodded in agreement. He is also a shareholder of the mechanical manufacturing and R&D company!

He stayed in Guan Ya's room for half an hour and said, "I'm going out. I'm going to meet the president later to report on my recent work!"

In a luxury suite in a five-star hotel in Jingdao Ke, Chen Shu, who had just taken a bath, was standing by the window, blowing her hair, wearing a light-colored pajamas!

In the noise of the hair dryer, a voice came from behind, "Why are you in New Covenant County?"

A man wearing yellow pajamas and a silver mask leaned lazily on the head of the bed.

Chen Shu did not look back as if she had expected his arrival, nor did she reply, blowing her hair by herself!

A few minutes later, her hair was dry. She put down the hair dryer, opened the refrigerator in the bedroom, and opened two cans of beer~~

"Yuanzi is here in New Covenant County, I want to see him, he will know about those things sooner or later!"

The man took the canned beer and smiled. "It's not necessary. Whether it's your identity as the person in charge of the Jishi Society or Zhang Tianshi's backhand after his revival, he already knows it."

Chen Shu frowned. "I'm not referring to these!"

"What you want to say can't be told to him yet, unless you want him to die! But I want to remind you, Yuanzi has already died once, and the Zimu Shrine can't revive him again." The man said in a deep voice!

Chen Shu was silent for a moment and nodded.

The man smiled and said, "What's the matter with calling me? My dear sister."

Chen Shu said in a low voice, "Abe Marshall is out of contact."
