Chapter 1 — Quietly Conquering the Male Lead’s Mother!
“Auntie, is the yin poison in your body better? Does it still flare up every night?” In a residence, Yang Chen asked with concern.
Sitting beside him was a woman with an extremely beautiful appearance, looking to be around thirty years old, with dark hair tied into a bun behind her head, dressed in a simple homely dress, exuding the charm of a married young woman.
“Xiao Chen, I’m much better now! Thank you so much for coming every day to help me dispel the yin poison!” The woman said softly, her beautiful face full of gratitude.
“Auntie, this is what I should do! Lin Yan and I are fellow disciples, so as a senior brother, taking care of his mother is only natural! Also, I actually … sigh!” Yang Chen didn’t continue, wearing a look like he wanted to say more, but couldn’t.
The beautiful woman’s cheeks also saw a touch a redness at his words.
After a month of being together, she too understood Yang Chen’s intentions, moreover, she too …
After thinking about it, the beautiful woman said softly: “Xiao Chen, don’t call me Auntie anymore!”
“Huh? Why? Did I do something to upset you, Auntie?” Yang Chen hurriedly asked, looking flustered.
“No, no!” The beautiful woman looked a bit shy, “You’ve been taking care of me so much this past month, coming every day to dispel my yin poison for me, I’m very grateful to you! However, although you are Yan’s senior brother, you are only three years younger than me. Calling me Auntie seems a bit inappropriate!”
“Then what should I call you?” Yang Chen asked nervously.
“What should you call me? I, I don’t know!”
The beautiful woman couldn’t even look Yang Chen in the eye.
She just said coyly, “My name is Lin Xilan, you, just call me whatever you think!”
“Then in the future, I’ll call you Sister Lan!”
“Auntie, what do you think?”
“You’re still calling me auntie!?” The beautiful woman immediately chided, rolling her eyes at him.
Exquisite and beautiful, stunningly charming.
Yang Chen quickly smiled and said, “It’s my fault, my fault, Sister Lan!”
“Hmph!” Lin Xilan lightly responded.
Then she said, “Xiao Chen, I’ll go prepare some food for you! I bought your favorite mushrooms today, and beef too!”
“Alright! I love eating the food Sister Lan makes, it’s so delicious!”
“You little glutton!” Lin Xilan chuckled lightly, then got up.
“You sit for a while; I’ll be done soon. I’ll call you then!”
Saying that, Lin Xilan lightly moved her lotus steps and walked out. Even the simple skirt, couldn’t hide her graceful figure.
In the living room, Yang Chen watched her back, a smile gradually appearing on his lips.
Hehe.
It looks like their relationship had taken another step forward! His efforts over the month were not in vain!
A month ago, Yang Chen transmigrated. Moreover, he was transmigrated into a novel he had read before. And he was the villainous Holy Son of that novel. His fiancée, Shen Xueyan, was the first female lead in the book.
Before he took over, Yang Cheng, had always been obsessed with his fiancée, Shen Xueyan; however, Shen Xueyan only treated him as a lapdog and didn’t really like him. Instead, she had her eyes set on an ordinary inner disciple, Lin Yan.
Such a thing might be hard to understand in reality, but in this novel, that’s how the characters were positioned.
Yang Chen, who understood the original work, knew that women like Shen Xueyan, the more you actively pursued them, the more they would look down on you.
It’s like the saying: familiarity breeds contempt, while distance breeds fondness!
So, Yang Chen simply stopped trying.
Knowing the plot of the book, he knew that Lin Yan’s mother was a very influential woman, and she was very important to Lin Yan. So, Yang Chen took the initiative to come here to help Lin Yan’s mother dispel the cold poison in her body.
Since Lin Yan liked to please his fiancée. Then, he would please Lin Yan’s mother.
Now, after a month of quietly pursuing her, Lin Yan’s mother, Lin Xilan, was clearly treating him differently. She took the initiative to change the way he addressed her from “Auntie” to “Sister Lan.”
This indicated a lot of things.
Moreover, the bashful look in her eyes just now.
Heh.
It was just a matter of time before he breached the final barrier with her.
Thinking of this, Lin Xilan came in with two plates.
“Xiao Chen, I’m done, try it!”
She placed the two plates on the table, and the fragrant smell wafted over, whetting one’s appetite. One plate of fried mushrooms, one plate of stir-fried beef.
“Sister Lan, this tastes amazing! If I can’t eat the food you make in the future, I’ll definitely feel like dying!”
As the Holy Son of an immortal sect, Yang Chen had eaten all kinds of delicacies. But Lin Xilan was very pleased to hear that.
She scolded Yang Chen: “If you want to eat, Sister will make it for you every day from now on!”
“Okay!”
Yang Chen happily dug in.
While eating, he took out a jar of wine from his storage ring.
“Sister Lan, how about we have some wine? Good food goes with good wine, and, a beautiful woman, hehe!”
“Hateful, what nonsense are you talking about!”
Lin Xilan’s cheeks turned red, giving Yang Chen a glare. But she didn’t refuse. Instead, she got up and took two cups.
The aroma of the wine suffused the air.
“Sister Lan, this is the spirit wine brewed by the Xuantian Sect. If you drink it, it can strengthen your body and also inhibit the residual yin poison in your body and dispel it!”
Yang Chen poured her a full cup.
Lin Xilan only took two sips, but her fair cheeks blushed.
“Xiao Chen, this wine is too strong! I won’t drink anymore! I’ll get drunk if I drink more!”
Yang Chen didn’t urge her to drink. To pursue Lin Xilan, he naturally wouldn’t just use the method of getting her drunk. What he wanted was Lin Xilan’s willingness. Wine was just a pretext. After all, he really wanted to be the father of the male lead. In the future, when Lin Yan wanted to kill him, he would still rely on Lin Xilan to protect him.
After finishing their meal, it started to rain heavily outside.
“Xiao Chen, why don’t you stay tonight? It’s raining so heavily!”
As the Holy Son of the Xuantian Sect, Yang Chen’s cultivation had long since reached the peak of Foundation Building realm. Not to mention rain, even if it was pouring knives, it wouldn’t affect him. But Lin Xilan had finally mustered the courage to ask him to stay overnight.
How could he not seize this opportunity?
