I Am Born With A Silver Spoon novel Chapter 762

Just when the Qin Family were kneeling before Chen Hao, a young man was standing in front of a middle-aged man in a study room; they had come to the Li family's residence to join the ceremony.

“Shaozong, how are you getting along with the Wan Family’s daughter?” asked the middle-aged man.

“Father, everything is under my control. Wan Xue is head over heels for me. It won't be a problem for me to make her mine!” answered Li Shaozong, smiling faintly.

“Haha, that’s good to hear. I trust that you’ll handle everything very well. You must know that though the Wan Family itself is not that powerful, the protector they have behind them is terrifying. Before the Li Family can truly succeed, we must forge a good relationship with the Wan Family! Also, you must not slack on your cultivation. The Underground Ceremony is starting in two days’ time. The Li Family must be the winner this year, no matter what!” urged Li Shaozong’s father.

“Understood! But father…” Li Shaozong mumbled under his breath.

“What is it?” asked Mr. Li.

“I know this ceremony is held once every few years, but a rare treasure would always emerge every time in a ceremony like this. So, were there any treasures that were discovered in this ceremony?” asked Li Shaozong curiously.

“I am still probing into this. Nonetheless, the treasure this time has a significant meaning for expert cultivators like us. Thus, it has attracted the attention of many of them. Although these people have never revealed their faces, you must not attract too much attention to yourself. It's better if we take some precautions!” advised Mr. Li worriedly.

“Understood, father. I believe many hidden expert cultivators have witnessed my intentional defeat against the demon bull at the Salvaged Dragon Villa. I reckon many have turned their attention away from me!”

Li Shaozong shook his head, smiling wryly.

“Very well, then you’ll be able to get the necessary preparations done in peace. When we get our hands on the Wan Family’s assets, the success of the expansion of the Li Family will solely depend on this!” Mr. Li let out a chuckle, feeling relieved.

After that, Li Shaozong excused himself.

At this moment, Mr. Li turned his gaze to one of the corners in the study room.

Upon closer inspection, he realized that there was a fuzzy silhouette that seemed to be flickering in and out of sight.

That very night, the Wan Family’s residence was well-lighted.

Wan Yaozong was knocking on his daughter’s room door.

“Xue, are you asleep?” asked Wan Yaozong softly.

A moment later, the bedroom door swung open.

Wan Yaozong was greeted by the sight of Wan Xue, who had just finished washing her hair.

“It's already so late, father. What is it?” asked Wan Xue curiously.

“There is something I need to discuss with you…” Wan Yaozong held his hands behind his back before sitting down.

“What is it?” asked Wan Xue, puzzled.

“Xue, I know I have been very strict with you all these years. I seemed to be even harsher when it comes to your relationship. Do you hate me for this?” asked Wan Yaozong, smiling faintly.

“Of course not. I know you’re doing all these for my own good!” Wan Xue shook her head.

“It's good that you understand where I’m coming from. Anyway, things look good now since you’ve already decided to make Li Shaozong your partner. As your father, I can see that the two of you are getting along quite well. I want to ask your opinion on whether you want to take your relationship to the next step,” asked Wan Yaozong.

“I’m… still not sure about this yet!”

Wan Xue blushed instantly.

Wan Yaozong could clearly see something was on her mind because Uncle Bai had previously told him that Wan Xue was actually still very uncertain of her feelings toward Li Shaozong.

Since she was so doubtful of her feelings, Wan Yaozong did not want to push her too much.

However, there was something Wan Yaozong was certain of—his daughter would surely not fall for a person like Chen Hao. Thus, he was not worried anymore after seeing her taste in men.

“Alright, no matter what happens, I will always be on your side. However, I’m afraid it's only a matter of time before your marriage with Shaozong is arranged. Xue, you must prepare yourself because Shaozong’s future has no limits!”

After giving his advice and seeing that his daughter was not against it, he then walked out of Wan Xue’s room with a peace of mind.

“Chen Hao…”

Perhaps it was after hearing her father mention that name, Wan Xue suddenly blurted out those words unconsciously; it seemed like this man’s silhouette had resurfaced in her mind, making her heart race.
