Urban Seduction: Housewives Club-Chapter 1810 - 0139: One Bed, Three Mothers and Daughters 5

Chapter 1810

"Then let's shift the blame onto the Chen family." The burly woman didn't care about the real cause of Li Chonghe's death; what mattered to her was the reputation of the Liu family. As long as someone could take the blame—and that someone was influential enough—it would be enough.
The handsome young man said, "But Shen Siying has always been very low-key; she doesn't have any reason to take action. That doesn't quite add up."
"If I say it's her, then it's her. There's nothing that can be said against that," the burly woman replied impatiently, then asked, "By the way, have we heard anything from Kui?"
"The young master hasn't given any news. I wonder if…" The handsome young man hesitated.
"How dare you! My son is safe. If you dare say anything else, I'll kill you!" The burly woman suddenly said, her face turning fierce.
It turned out that she was Li Yuan Kui's mother, Liu Qingqing, Li Chonghe's wife. If Wang Yue had seen her, he would have understood why Li Yuan Kui didn't resemble Li Chonghe so much—it was because he had inherited more of his mother's genes.
"I'm sorry for my mistake," the handsome young man said, sweating with fear. He quickly changed the subject: "So, what should we do about the Chen family?"
"Don't rush. We need to find Kui first, so that Shen Siying won't be forced into desperation and do something extreme." The burly woman shook her head, her gaze turning increasingly hot as she looked at the young man. "I'm feeling a bit restless tonight. Could you give me a massage?"
A sense of disgust flashed in the handsome young man's eyes, but on the surface, he was very happy and immediately began massaging Liu Qingqing. However, his techniques were far from proper… Before long, things took an even more inappropriate turn.
"Young people are really great—so full of energy," Liu Qingqing said with a sigh.
Now it seemed clear why Li Chonghe had gone to such lengths as using his vital energy to maintain his appearance as a young man in his twenties…
Wang Yue and Su Mengqing had no idea that a new crisis was about to strike the three major families of Jinling. It wasn't that they were not intelligent enough.
Still, they simply hadn't expected that Li Chonghe's wife had no intention of finding the real culprit, nor had they anticipated that Shen Siying was actually a powerful expert in the realm of Gui Zhen. As a result, she was chosen by Liu Qingqing to become the scapegoat.
After that night of intense cultivation, Wang Yue's skills finally reached the peak of the first level of the Gui Zhen realm.
At such a speed, it was almost terrifying, but he was still not entirely satisfied, because at present, he had only just reached the threshold of becoming a strong person.
What he wanted most was to make his way to the sacred land of martial arts, the Yang family, and bring his second aunt, Su Mengchen, back, so that his mother could regain her happiness.
To break into such a sacred place of martial arts and even defeat those who inhabited it would be an extremely difficult task.
After all, it was very likely that some superpowers beyond the "Transcendent Realm" were hidden there.
"Transcendent Realm... I must reach that level within three years!" Wang Yue secretly set this goal for himself.
At first glance, this goal seemed quite achievable, since Wang Yue had risen from the "Qi Refining Realm" to the current "True Return Realm" in just over half a month.
But in reality, it was far from easy. The higher the level, the more difficult it became to advance, especially when reaching the "Transcendent Realm," where each new stage represented a tremendous leap in power.
By that level, each small step forward would be far more challenging than those before it, and the difference in combat strength between stages would be enormous.
Just because Wang Yue could now match someone at the third level of the "True Return Realm" with his current skills at the peak of the "Heavenly Yuan Realm," it didn't mean he would be able to defeat someone who had just entered the "Transcendent Realm."
Of course, within his own realm, Wang Yue was quite confident—after all, the purity of his vital energy was exceptionally high, and he also possessed powerful techniques like the "Great Wild Wind" at the eighth level.
The next day, Wang Yue spent another day studying martial arts techniques at home. In the evening, he had planned to practice the dual-cultivation techniques with his sister, Wang Xin'er, but unfortunately, she happened to be there too.
With no other option, he left the Wang family estate and went to the wilderness to practice the two new techniques he had learned.
After two days of intense study, he had mostly mastered these techniques and was now ready to put them into practice. It turned out that those at higher levels could learn lower-level techniques much more quickly.
In just one night of practice, he was already able to use the top-tier "Light Smoke Step" skill with great proficiency, which could double his speed.
As for the mid-tier "Soul-Cutting Sword," he had also made significant progress, being able to unleash at least 50% of its full power.
Now, using just his sword skills, he was already capable of competing with a true expert at the "True Return Realm."
After finishing his exercises, Wang Yue did not return to the Wang family manor but instead drove towards the city center. Last time at the summit, he had not pushed his mother-in-law to the limit; now that she must have regained her strength, it was time to embrace her truly.
Upon arriving at the Chen family building, Wang Yue entered the elevator that took him straight to the top floor without encountering his aunt Chen Chen inside. Upon reaching the top floor, he saw a woman in professional attire mopping a floor that was already very clean.
"Young Master Wang," the woman said, showing obvious surprise as she hurried over upon seeing him.
"Are you… Auntie He?" Wang Yue was somewhat astonished. In just a few days, she had changed dramatically. Her once gray hair had been dyed black and neatly coiled at the back of her head, giving her a very professional and efficient appearance.
Her face, which had previously looked much older than her actual age, now radiated youth; she looked to be in her early forties at most.
Coupled with her natural beauty, she was now undoubtedly a middle-aged woman of great charm.
Her well-fitted professional attire accentuated her figure, revealing curves that would surely attract many attention wherever she went.
And this was just after a few short days—over time, she would only become even more radiant, and she would certainly not be any less attractive than her own daughter.
"It's me, Young Master Wang. What brings you here?" He Qiong was so excited that she didn't know what to say. She was truly grateful to Wang Yue from the bottom of her heart.
This kind-hearted young master had not only helped her family out of trouble but also secured her such a good job, and had even arranged a job for Li Gang as well. For their family, this was nothing short of a miracle.
"I came to see Auntie Xue for some matters," Wang Yue replied, thinking to himself that he couldn't tell her the real reason for his visit—after all, his mother-in-law was the one he really wanted to see.
But then he realized that He Qiong could also be considered his mother-in-law, since he no longer regarded Lan Jie as a servant but as his own woman.
