The Dominance of the Son-in-Law: My Wealthy and Beautiful Wife

"Mr. Qin, you saved my sister, and I will fulfill my promise to marry you."

Mu Jiangyue lowered her head.

Her visage, akin to the autumn moon, flushed with a trace of red.

Her eyelashes quivered slightly.

Like ripples spreading across the calm surface of a lake.

Seeing this, Qin Feng waved his hand and said, "You should know that I already have a wife, so there's no need for this."

"Uh?"

Mu Jiangyue was slightly startled, lifting her head to look at him.

She knew that Qin Feng was married, constantly scorned by Qian Tianao and the others as an unworthy son-in-law.

Therefore.

She thought that with Qin Feng's abilities, he certainly wouldn't be content with being a son-in-law in a minor family.

Perhaps he would seize this opportunity to leave that family and accept this marriage proposal.

After all, Mu Jiangyue thought she was quite decent.

She wasn't narcissistic.

Years ago, she was proclaimed the number one beauty in the Southwest, with countless prestigious families coming to propose marriage.

But her heart was only set on her career.

She understood that only by empowering herself could she avoid being seen as merely a decorative vase, capable of protecting her sister.

It was not until she became one of the Southwest Eight Kings.

That the suitors dwindled, as none were deemed worthy of her.

Hence.

She thought by offering to marry, Qin Feng would accept without hesitation, or at the very least show a trace of excitement and pride.

After all, conquering such a woman would bring great vanity to any man.

But.

Qin Feng rejected without hesitation.

The reason being he had a wife.

This left Mu Jiangyue, who was held in high regard by thousands, feeling a significant emotional drop.

"If there's nothing else, then we will take our leave."

Qin Feng said again.

His business was done, medicinal ingredients purchased; it was time for him to return home.

He was also thinking about how, if he returned tonight, he could share a bed with his wife, Xu Yunxiao.

Hearing his departure.

Mu Jiangyue was again taken aback.

Originally, when she brought up the marriage contract, her heart was resistant, unwilling to marry anyone, just wanting to stay with the Mu family to protect her sister.

Now that wish was fulfilled.

But instead, she felt an inexplicable sense of loss.

"Mr. Qin, why don't you... stay one more day, as a gesture of the Mu family's gratitude?"

Mu Jiangyue proposed.

At this moment, Lord Dog also hurriedly implored, "Exactly, Mr. Qin, why rush back? Our scenery here in the Southwest is quite nice, you could take it as a sightseeing tour, and perhaps... participate in the auction event! Yes, there's a high-profile auction tomorrow in Dragon Mountain City!"

It was no small feat to get close to Qin Feng.

They hadn't yet fostered a good relationship.

How could they let him leave just like that?

Lord Dog was also very anxious.

Seeing their eagerness to keep him, Qin Feng thought about the rare trip and said, "Well then! I'll go see if I can acquire some treasures at the auction."

"There will definitely be treasures, just afraid they might be unaffordable!" Lord Dog said with a look of regret.

Mu Jiangyue also nodded and mentioned, "This auction, it is said that many treasures come from the Hidden World, and are very expensive. The priciest one is supposedly the 'Dragon Crystal Stone', hailed as a treasure beyond price."

"Dragon Crystal Stone?!" Qin Yi exclaimed in astonishment.

He had heard of this stone, a top-tier treasure!

According to the old Monk in Dragon and Tiger Village, if the Dragon Crystal Stone ends up in the hands of an accomplished individual, it could create a Cave Mansion!

Of course.

That old Monk loved to tell tall tales, so its veracity was unknown.

However, since the thing has appeared, then I should take a look.

...

In the afternoon.

At the Qian family villa.

In a private meeting room, six people were sitting in front of a large round table.

The Liang Family Patriarch, Liang Jiuxiang.

The Tan Family Patriarch, Tan Zhanhu.

The Qian Family Patriarch, Qian Tianao.

The Yu Family Master, Yu Wanli.

The Gu Family Master, Gu Wanshan.

The head of the Ghost Soldier Mercenary Group, Li Baigu.

These were the first six of the Southwest Eight Kings, all gathered here.

"I say, Old Qian, you've summoned us all, what exactly do you want to do?" Liang Jiuxiang asked with a smile, "It can't be that you want us to help you take revenge, can it? Ha ha, I must say, you have really embarrassed us, the Eight Kings, by spending a hefty sum on such two fools from the Hidden World."

Martial Arts Family's Tan Zhanhu said: "The main point is, the way you wanted to frame the Mu Family was really shameful, typical of businessmen, not a single one is decent."

The others also started laughing.

Qian Tianao's face darkened as he said, "Stop talking about me, I don't believe your Tan family hasn't had its fair share of dirty laundry. As far as I know, your family's prominence today is because you stole a boxing technique's secret book from outside."

"You..."

Tan Zhanhu was very angry.

But the leading figure of the Eight Kings, Liang Jiuxiang, stopped the quarrel between the two with a raised hand and said with a smile, "Enough, let's talk business! ——Old Qian, with the strength of your Qian family, dealing with Lord Dog shouldn't be hard, right? No need to call us all here, is there?"

The others also turned to look at Qian Tianao.

For the Qian family with its influence, forcefully dealing with Lord Dog wouldn't be too difficult.

"What I've called you here for is not because of that mad dog," Qian Tianao said with a furrowed brow, "I want Mu Jiangyue!"

"The Mu Family?!"

The group was taken aback.

For their level, as the Southwest Eight Kings, it's unrealistic to take down anyone.

Their businesses were too vast.

Involved in many industries, such as real estate, transportation, aviation, pharmaceuticals, food, and so on, with a very large scale as well.

If any of them encountered chaos, it would very likely lead to social panic, economic recession, and a series of other issues.

For example, when a large-scale leather factory collapsed in the past.

Tens of thousands were left unemployed, destitute, and many turned to crime, which led to some public safety problems.

This is something the higher authorities do not want to see.

So, once you reach a certain level, your status also becomes a chip to protect you.

But.

Among the Southwest Eight Kings, there is one whose troubles would not attract the attention of those above, and that is Lord Dog.

Although he is one of the Eight Kings.

His main business lies in entertainment clubs, and even with some troubles, it would not cause much of a stir.

This is also one of the reasons they look down on Lord Dog, because the scope of what protects him is limited.

But if something happened to Mu Jiangyue, who already had a certain position in the national field of Chinese medicine, it would certainly attract attention from above who would seriously investigate the matter.

"I say, you haven't gone mad with rage, have you?"

Tan Zhanhu said.

It was very normal for them to compete with each other in business on a daily basis, but seeing the stance of Qian Tianao, it seemed he wanted Mu Jiangyue's life, which would be a big deal!

"I'm serious."

Qian Tianao looked solemn and said, "Without Mu Jiangyue, the Mu family will surely collapse. At that time, I only want her 'Moon Concealing Stone'. As for the Mu family's business, I won't interfere. When the time comes, you can grab what you want, and the business of that mad dog will also belong to you, how about that?"

"Really?!"

The eyes of the other five members lit up.

Although the Mu family was one of the Eight Kings, apart from Mu Jiangyue, the rest were all mediocre.

As long as Mu Jiangyue fell.

Then the remaining business would surely plummet, and they could make a move, acquiring it at a low price.

The Mu family's business was not small.

Even if divided among the five of them, it would still be a considerable fortune, not to mention the assets of Lord Dog's family.

So, the five of them were somewhat tempted!
