Chapter 17: Lu Siyen: Your Husband Has the Upper Hand!-Mimada ao Extremo! Depois de Renascida, Fico Indomável nos Braços do Senhor Lu(Ser uma pessoa tranquila)

Ye Qin walked in. Seeing the group seated on the living room sofa, he almost thought he had entered the wrong house.

“Dad, have you eaten? Chu Wanning is here at our place! And Lord Lu!”

Ye Mu Gui glanced at the newcomer and asked, then returned his gaze to the new car keys in his hand. He was eager to take his new beloved car for a spin!

His brother-in-law was indeed generous—now he was more than willing to invite people over!

“Hello, godfather!”

Lu Siyuan greeted along with Chu Wanning.

Ye Qin looked at Mrs. Ye, waiting for an explanation.

“It’s true. Wanning and Siyuan have registered their marriage—you can proudly call yourself godfather now!” Mrs. Ye walked to the door, took the briefcase from Ye Qin’s hand, and smiled.

Despite years of steady experience in the business world, Ye Qin was stunned at that moment.

How could his goddaughter have married Lu Yanwang?

And this Lu Yanwang had even become his godson-in-law—what on earth was going on?

“Good, good! Please sit! Godfather will go get you a change-of-name red envelope!” Ye Qin quickly composed himself.

“Come upstairs! We just finished eating, and I was about to bring out the red envelopes. You’re back just in time!” Mrs. Ye said comfortably.

She hadn’t seen Ye Qin’s earlier expression in a long time and knew he must have many questions for her.

Chu Wanning leaned closer to Lu Siyuan and whispered, “A Yan, you have business dealings with godfather, right?”

Lu Siyuan nodded. “Yes, President Ye is very formidable, but your husband is a cut above!”

Chu Wanning chuckled softly—the competitiveness was a bit intense!

“Of course, my husband is truly exceptional!” Chu Wanning praised without a hint of modesty. She knew Lu Siyuan was even more impressive than he appeared, as she had noticed a flicker of unease in godfather’s eyes earlier—he was somewhat intimidated by Lu Siyuan.

At this moment, Chu Wanning was unaware that within the circle of powerful elites, Lu Siyuan was known as the king of the business underworld, hence the nickname “Lu Yanwang.” No one could gain an advantage over him unfairly. Normal business transactions aside, if anyone tried to take what wasn’t theirs or harbored other intentions, Lu Siyuan would make them regret it thoroughly—and impose a heavy penalty as a warning.

Lu Siyuan himself was relieved that there had never been any unsavory dealings with the Ye family.

“Wife, who else do you have close ties with?” Lu Siyuan asked directly, knowing that no matter how thorough his research, some details might be missing—it was best to ask the person involved.

“No one else. My godmother is close to my mother and gets along well with our children. My mother doesn’t have many close friends; godmother is the only one, but she’s worth a hundred fair-weather friends!” Chu Wanning explained patiently.

“Don’t worry, I’ve already started looking for your mother!” Lu Siyuan tightened his arm around Chu Wanning’s waist.

Chu Wanning hadn’t expected him to act so swiftly. She had many things to say but ended up just whispering a thank you.

“You’re my wife!” From the moment he desired to claim her, he never considered letting go.

That was why he yearned to be part of her life and wanted to proclaim to the world that Chu Wanning belonged to Lu Siyuan.

“Stop whispering, will you? Brother-in-law, do you have many cars? Can I come visit your house?” Ye Mu Gui’s eyes sparkled with anticipation.

Lu Siyuan glanced at him coldly and responded with a nasal “Hmm.”

“Yeah! Chu Wanning, you must have saved the galaxy in a past life to marry my brother-in-law! I really love—” Ye Mu Gui suddenly stopped himself, then quickly added, “I really love myself for being childhood friends with you!”

Chu Wanning’s lips twitched. While she hadn’t exactly saved the universe in a past life, she had helped various parts of the world. Having been reborn with a husband like this was only fitting.

“Don’t act like you’ve never seen the world. When have godfather and godmother ever stopped giving you cars to drive?” Chu Wanning remembered that since Ye Mu Gui’s eighteenth birthday, he had received a limited-edition sports car worth tens of millions every year. She, in turn, received jewelry sets of comparable value from godfather and godmother.

Thinking of this, she realized she should visit the Chu family soon to avoid overstaying her welcome and mistakenly believing those possessions were hers.

She vividly recalled how Qiu Yuanyuan had swindled many of her designer bags and clothes, as well as some diamond necklaces and rings—all gifts from her maternal grandparents and mother over the years.

“That’s different. The unattainable is always tempting. Brother-in-law’s garage must be absolutely insane!” Ye Mu Gui was practically itching to visit the Lu family villa right now.

“Ye Mu Gui, are you itching to cause trouble again?” Ye Qin scolded sharply. “You’re even eyeing Wanning’s family’s cars now!”

Lu Siyuan’s lips curled slightly upon hearing this. He liked hearing it—Wanning’s family. Hmm, not bad.

Chu Wanning saw Ye Qin and Mrs. Ye heading downstairs, so she stood up along with Lu Siyuan.

“Why are you standing? Sit down quickly!” Mrs. Ye urged.

“Wanning, Mr. Lu, this is a gift from godmother and me. Congratulations on your wedding! You’ll be holding a proper ceremony for Wanning in the future, right?” Ye Qin directed the question at Lu Siyuan.

“Godfather, just call me Siyuan. Once Wanning graduates, we will definitely hold a grand wedding. Godfather and godmother must attend, and we will find her mother then!” Lu Siyuan promised.

Chu Wanning was surprised—hadn’t he said the business dealings would end after her graduation? Had he never considered letting her go?

Thinking this, her heart felt a little sweet. She was actually quite satisfied with this flash marriage husband.

“Good, good. Our Ye family is also sparing no effort in searching for Chu Xi’s whereabouts. Godfather will provide you with investigation information then,” Mrs. Ye quickly agreed.

“Godfather, godmother, thank you!” Chu Wanning’s eyes reddened, and her voice choked with emotion.

She knew she had already accepted much of the original owner’s emotions and was naturally moved. She did not resist but rather cherished the feeling of being cared for by elders. Suddenly, she even missed the Seven Old Men and wondered if the delivery had arrived yet.

The Seven Old Men: “......” Are you sure it’s not something you ordered?

“Wanwan, your mother will come back safely!” Lu Siyuan comforted.

“Mm, godfather, godmother, I brought you gifts—health-preserving pills and heart-saving pills that I made myself. Godfather and godmother should take one health pill daily, and carry a few heart pills for emergencies,” Chu Wanning said, handing a porcelain bottle to Mrs. Ye.

Ye Qin and Mrs. Ye exchanged a smile, asked no questions, and accepted it happily!

Others might not know, but they were aware that Chu Wanning’s grandmother was a reclusive divine healer, so it was no surprise she had some remedies.

This was also why Chu Wanning wasn’t worried about raising suspicion—because in her memories, the original owner had indeed studied medicine but had achieved nothing.

“Godmother must supervise godfather to take these diligently!” Mrs. Ye fondled the box lovingly.

Lu Siyuan also presented his prepared gift. Ye Qin glanced at it and was shocked!

Could this be—
