Beautiful CEO's Super Expert
Chapter 896 - 896: Refuse to Acknowledge?

"I don't believe you!"

Xiao Yaning looked at Su Chen and said:

"If you're so capable, show me!"

"Do you really want to see?"

Su Chen thought for a moment and said:

"Better not, there's nothing worth seeing."

"Stop the nonsense! Today, I insist on seeing it!"

Su Chen's coyness only stirred up Xiao Yaning's stubbornness!

Of course, if it weren't Su Chen, she wouldn't insist like this.

"Alright then, if you insist on seeing, I'll show you."

Su Chen wasn't actually that bothered; the reason he kept his shirt on was to avoid scaring her with the scars.

Saying that, Su Chen began to take off his shirt, but as he lifted it halfway, revealing his chest and stomach, Xiao Yaning covered her mouth in shock, her face full of alarm!

When Su Chen finally took off his shirt, Xiao Yaning was completely dumbfounded!

She stared at the mottled, hideous scars crisscrossing his body, her mind a blank!

How could this be? How could it be like this?

How could he have so many terrible scars on his body?

The old and new scars intertwined so vividly, it was shocking!

At first, Xiao Yaning thought he was joking, but unexpectedly, it was real!

"How did you get these?"

Xiao Yaning asked with a trembling voice, a delicate hand reaching over Su Chen's body, gently tracing the scars, distinctly feeling their presence.

"Just messing around in the past, you know, for a man, a few scars are cool!"

Su Chen laughed playfully.

He found it odd, how women were the same!

When Lin Ruoxue first saw these scars, her reaction was much the same as Xiao Yaning's now.

Xiao Yaning certainly knew Su Chen was talking nonsense. How could fooling around result in such severe and numerous injuries?

However, she didn't say anything, continuing to gently stroke the scars, feeling the stories behind them...

For Su Chen, the sensation was somewhat unusual!

It was no surprise, after all, he was a normal man!

Especially under these circumstances!

"Alright, stop looking, let me put my shirt back on," Su Chen smiled slightly.

"Don't!"

Xiao Yaning immediately said.

Su Chen was taken aback when he heard this!

What was going on?

Xiao Yaning caressed the scars, feeling a pang in her heart, her beautiful eyes glistening with moisture!

Like Lin Ruoxue, her first reaction was not fear but heartache, an urge to comfort this man!

Moreover, these scars endowed him with an unusual aura!

Wildness? Mystery? World-weariness? Loneliness?...

Precisely what it was, Xiao Yaning couldn't say, only that this peculiar aura was somewhat alluring...

"Are you enamored with my looks?"

Su Chen curled into a wicked grin and joked.

"Can you tell me the story behind these scars?"

Xiao Yaning looked up at Su Chen with deep affection and said softly, her fingers still tenderly touching the scars!

"There's nothing much to say, it's all in the past."

Su Chen chuckled bitterly and said:

"Stop it, or something might actually happen!"

"What could happen!"

Xiao Yaning glared at him and said indignantly.

"What do you think?"

Su Chen replied, somewhat exasperated.

"I'd like to see you have the nerve!"

Xiao Yaning glanced at him provocatively.

"Don't think just because the tiger is not angry that it's sick,"

Su Chen was indeed feeling a bit uncomfortable due to Xiao Yaning's teasing. In a swift move, he slipped his arm around Xiao Yaning's soft waist and pulled her close, their bodies pressed tightly together.

Now, they were less than a few inches apart, close enough to feel each other's breaths!

Their eyes met, and the things both had been avoiding seemed to be slowly simmering!

Suddenly, driven by an unknown courage, Xiao Yaning leaned forward...

"Boom!"

In that instant, Su Chen was utterly dumbfounded!

Had he just been kissed forcibly again?

This time, he was genuinely stunned and remained in a daze even five minutes later!

Although Xiao Yaning's actions were inexperienced, she was consistently proactive!

This was Su Chen's first time being passively engaged throughout!

"You..."

Su Chen stammered, looking at her, unsure of what to say.

Xiao Yaning's face was now like a peach blossom, radiant and inviting, making one want to take a bite!

"Just pretend it never happened, or that it wasn't me just now!"

Xiao Yaning stated to Su Chen.

Su Chen was even more bewildered upon hearing this, what did she mean?

Could one simply treat it like that?

Was she intending to deny everything that happened?

Su Chen thought shamelessly.

"Did you hear me? And don't tell anyone about this, especially Ye Mei!"

Xiao Yaning suddenly and "viciously" said to Su Chen.

"What's it got to do with Ye Mei?"

Su Chen asked, puzzled.

"Just don't! Understand?"

Xiao Yaning "warned" him sternly.

"Alright, alright, I promise not to say anything."

Su Chen quickly replied, thinking to himself, women's minds were truly unfathomable!

Upon hearing Su Chen's promise, Xiao Yaning felt relieved.

Even Xiao Yaning herself wasn't sure what had come over her earlier, why she took the initiative, but it happened...

She knew Ye Mei also liked Su Chen, which made her feel she'd betrayed her friend, hence not wanting Su Chen to say a word...

Afterward, the two continued to soak in the hot spring, though the atmosphere was inevitably a bit awkward!

No one had expected such an event to occur after just a few minutes in the spring...

"By the way, what is this Martial Arts Family you mentioned this morning?"

Xiao Yaning suddenly shifted the topic, and she was genuinely curious.

"Simply put, a Martial Arts Family is a family that thrives on martial arts, with most family members being martial artists."

Su Chen, without overthinking, explained:

"Don't underestimate Martial Arts Families, compared to Jiangnan's Four Great Families and Yandu's Five Great Families, they're nothing."

"That impressive?"

Xiao Yaning gasped in amazement upon hearing this, her face full of shock!

She didn't know much about Martial Arts Families, but she was familiar with Jiangnan's Four Great Families and Yandu's Five Great Families!

Each of these was beyond her reach!

Especially the Five Great Families of Yandu, which she had always regarded as the pinnacle of Huaxia!

Yet, Su Chen had just told her they were insignificant compared to his family, how could she not be astonished?

She never imagined her family could be such a formidable entity!
