Chapter 1751 - 0080: Mother-in-Law Ling Xueyan 2

Li Yingying however snorted and said, ”We would never be related to him; heʼs a bad person.”

Wang Yue smiled and said, ”Yingying, donʼt say that. Maybe heʼs not that bad after all.”

”Yes, yes, I really havenʼt done anything bad. Usually, I just use my size to scare people a bit; I hardly ever actually get the chance to use force,” He Biao hurriedly said.

Wang Yue, of course, didnʼt believe his nonsense, but he still found this man useful, so he didnʼt expose him. Instead, he asked, ”He Biao, do you want to live or die?”

”If Young Master Wang wants me to die, I canʼt stay alive no matter what. But if he doesnʼt want me to die, I definitely canʼt die either,” He Biao said. Although he looked simple and rough, he was quite clever with his words: ”Whether I live or die depends entirely on what Young Master Wang says.”

”Good. Then Iʼll give you a chance to live. From now on, the Crocodile Gang will be under your control. You need to protect the Li family for me. If anything happens to them, youʼll be held fully responsible,” Wang Yue said. ”If you encounter any problems you canʼt handle, you can also contact me.”

After saying that, he gave his communication number.

He Biao was overjoyed. He never expected that not only would he not be punished, but he would also be appointed as the leader of the Crocodile Gang by the young master of the Wang family.

Although he was not a martial artist and couldnʼt use force to intimidate the gang like the previous leader who had died, having the powerful Wang family behind him was far more effective than mere force.

”Young Master Wang, rest assured. From now on, Ms. He will be my dear aunt, and Young Master Li Gang and Miss Yingying will be my uncles and aunts. Even if I die, I wonʼt let anyone harm them!” He Biao promised solemnly.

”Then it depends on how you perform. If you do well, I might consider making you a peripheral martial artist of the Wang family,” Wang Yue offered him another incentive.

”Thank you, Young Master Wang!” He Biao was truly overjoyed. In those times, who wouldnʼt want to become a martial artist? Martial artists were not only much stronger than ordinary people but also lived longer and better.

”Sister Lan, Yingying, letʼs go,” Wang Yue said, ignoring He Biao and calling out to the two women before leaving the bar. He was confident that He Biao could handle the follow-up tasks; after all, this guy clearly had a lot of experience in such matters.

Once in the car, Li Menglan couldnʼt help but praise, ”Young Master, I never thought you knew so well how to deal with people. You used both kindness and authority, and in just one move, you made He Biao completely loyal to you. At the same time, you also took control of the Crocodile Gang. If our mother knew about this, she would be very pleased.”

”Is that so? I didnʼt think about it that much,” Wang Yue said, rubbing his nose slightly, feeling a bit embarrassed.

He really hadnʼt thought too much about it; he just felt it was necessary to provide more protection for the Li family, and since He Biao was available to control, he simply did it. But now, with Li Menglanʼs words, it seemed as if he had actually planned everything brilliantly. Even though Wang Yue had developed some confidence in himself, he still felt a bit uncomfortable accepting it.

”Pfft...” Li Yingying couldnʼt help but laugh.

Just now, Wang Yue had looked so ruthless that he resembled a great demon king, but now, in front of his sister, he showed a childlike expression, especially his embarrassed gesture of rubbing his nose, which was both funny and endearing.

Wang Yue knew what Li Yingying was laughing about and quickly cleared his throat, changing the subject, ”Sister Lan, with the Crocodile Gang watching over us, and after what happened, more people will surely become aware of the relationship between your family and the Wang family. We donʼt have to worry anymore. Yingying, if anything happens in the future, or if you run out of money, just go to He Biao. If he dares to be untrustworthy, Iʼll deal with him!”

Li Yingying agreed happily, but Li Menglan sighed and said, ”Considering my motherʼs personality, it might be okay for her to accept some money from the Crocodile Gang, but I doubt she would ever agree to take it.”

”What does Auntie He do for a living now?” Wang Yue asked.

Li Menglan didnʼt know the answer either and turned to look at her sister.

At that moment, Li Yingyingʼs happy expression faded, and she said worriedly, ”Mom usually does some odd jobs. Right now, itʼs all up to my brother; he earns money by moving goods for people at the warehouse. But now that heʼs injured...”

”Donʼt worry. We brought plenty of medicinal herbs this time, so your brother will recover soon,” Wang Yue comforted her. ”Also, Sister Lan, later weʼll go to a place to see if we can find a stable job for Auntie He.”

”Where?” Li Menglan asked. She was becoming less and less formal with Wang Yue because, in her heart, she had already decided that she would belong to him forever, whether he wanted her or not.

”The Chen family,” Wang Yue replied.

Among the three major martial artist families in Jinling, each had its own business, but most of their activities were related to martial arts and not suitable for ordinary people to work in. Only the Chen family, thanks to a business genius, had gradually expanded its operations from the martial arts community to all industries. After more than twenty years of development, it now controlled the economic lifeline of the entire city of Jinling.

This business genius of the Chen family was Ling Xueyan, who, with her unparalleled business acumen and stunning beauty, was known as one of the ”Four Wonders of Jinling” along with Su Mengyan.

At the same time, she is also the mother of Chen Xi, Wang Yueʼs fiancée, and thus Wang Yueʼs future mother-in-law.

After returning to the Li family, since Li Gang had not yet woken up, Wang Yue asked Li Yingying to stay and take care of him, while he himself took He Qiong and her daughter Li Menglan straight to the Chen familyʼs office building.

This was a 49-story office complex, with various offices covering all industries, but all of them belonged to the Chen family and were under the sole management of Ling Xueyan.

Wang Yueʼs appearance was nothing like that of the kind of petty gang members from the Crocodile Gang, but inside the Chen familyʼs office building, he was quite familiar. When he arrived with others, the receptionist didnʼt ask if they had a reservation; instead, they were directly led to the elevator that took them to the top floor.

”Xiao Yue, what are you doing here?” Just as the three of them were about to enter the elevator, a voice called out to him, sounding somewhat surprised.

Turning around, he saw a girl walking towards him.

She was dressed in professional attire: a gray blazer and a gray skirt that perfectly accentuated her slender figure. Her legs were clad in flesh-colored stockings, and her black high heels made her already stunning legs look even more graceful and sexy.

Her beauty was no less impressive than that of the other women in the Wang family. Her small, diamond-shaped mouth was slightly upturned, as if she was always wearing a gentle smile.

”Sister Chen Chen,” Wang Yue was also somewhat surprised to see her.

Chen Chen was Ling Xueyanʼs eldest daughter and Chen Xiʼs sister—meaning she would soon become Wang Yueʼs sister-in-law. Like Wang Yueʼs two biological sisters and cousin Wang Yue, she was also one of the so-called ”Twelve Beauties of Jinling.”

Having inherited her motherʼs excellent genes, at just 21 years old, she already displayed remarkable competence and business talent. She was her mother Ling Xueyanʼs right-hand assistant and held a position of great importance within the Chen familyʼs company.

To encounter someone as busy as her in the lobby on the first floor was indeed surprising to Wang Yue.

”I went out to handle some matters and was just about to return to the office,” Chen Chen said, then turned to the mother and daughter behind Wang Yue. ”Who are these two?”

”Let me introduce them. This is Chen Chen, the young lady of the Chen family,” Wang Yue said. ”This is my close friend, Li Menglan, and her mother, Auntie He Qiong. I came here to ask Auntie Xue if she could help us find a job for Auntie He Qiong.”
