This night was a difficult one for the Fang family, as they were expecting a dreaded guest tomorrow. However, for Xia Liu and Fang Fei, it was exhilarating beyond words. Early in the morning, just after eight, Fang Fei lazily got out of bed. Today was an important day when Xia Liu would visit her family; she had to win her parents' approval. As for Xia Liu, he was indifferent, since Fang Huasheng was definitely at home, having his back. The Fang family wouldn't dare do anything to him. Inside the Fang family's living room, Lin Shuxia was pacing restlessly. After hearing about her daughter and Xia Liu's situation from Fang Cheng last night, she couldn't sleep. "Fang Cheng, what do you think we should do about this? How could Fei'er be with someone so terrifying?" Lin Shuxia was somewhat aware of the Nether Emperor's deeds. That's why she had been unable to sleep all night, her mind filled with images of her daughter being tormented by the Nether Emperor. "Ah, let's just take it one step at a time," Fang Cheng said with a troubled frown. Ding ding ding... Just as Fang Cheng was about to speak, his phone rang. "Shuxia, get ready, Fei'er is coming home." After hanging up, Fang Cheng spoke with a serious face. "Ah! So, that means... with her comes..." Fang Cheng nodded, the Nether Emperor! He was coming too! "Xia Liu, what did you buy at the herbal medicine store just now?" Walking under the shade of the trees, Fang Fei asked curiously. "Luckily, I found the raw materials for Beauty Mud there." "Seriously? My mom has been dying to buy Beauty Mud; who knew you couldn't even get a box for ten million at the end." Upon hearing Xia Liu's explanation, Fang Fei gave a thumbs up, thinking how well-prepared he was. "And what's this bottle of wine for?" "It's mixed medicinal wine, just in case we need it," Xia Liu explained with a wink. Fang Fei gave a wry smile, understanding exactly what Xia Liu meant. Soon, they arrived at the living room, where Fang Fei had been instructed by Fang Cheng to take their guest straight to the living room upon arrival this morning. "Mom! I'm back!" Seeing Lin Shuxia, Fang Fei immediately opened her arms and ran towards her. "Fei'er, you nearly scared me to death yesterday. If anything had happened to you, I wouldn't want to live either." Seeing her daughter's radiant complexion, Lin Shuxia was filled with mixed emotions. With her past experience, it was clear that Fang Fei must have been 'tormented' by that person late into the night. "Hello, Aunt Lin." Before Fang Fei could introduce him, Xia Liu took the initiative to greet her: "Hello, Uncle Lin." "You're Xia Liu!" Lin Shuxia said in surprise before Fang Cheng could reply. She had seen Xia Liu yesterday, and she thought well of this young man, considering he was a friend of her daughter outside. "Shuxia, you know him?" Fang Cheng was equally astonished. The person coming back with their daughter must be that terrifying Nether Emperor. "Yes, we even had a chat yesterday," Lin Shuxia said with a slight smile. Yesterday, Xia Liu gave her the impression of being mature and cheerful, as if he came to Liu Hai to attend his daughter's wedding. "Mom, Dad, let me formally introduce to you, Xia Liu, my future husband, your son-in-law," Fang Fei quickly returned to Xia Liu's side, taking his arm as she spoke. "Uh uh uh..." Looking at Xia Liu, and then thinking about the terrifying things her husband had told her, Lin Shuxia found herself at a loss for words. "Xia Liu, I'm Fei'er's dad, just call me Fang Cheng." That's right, in the presence of the world-renowned Nether Emperor, Fang Cheng dared not put on airs. This was what Fang Huasheng had instructed: whoever dared to bother Xia Liu, no matter who they were, would be thrown out of the house immediately. "Uncle Fang, I often hear County Chief Li mention you, it seems we are quite fated," Xia Liu said with a joyful smile. Stay tuned with My Virtual Library Empire He could see the apprehension in Fang Cheng, and he was, after all, his father-in-law; how could his attitude be like this? "County Chief Li?" "Dad, he's my godfather in Hejing," Seeing her father's confusion, Fang Fei quickly explained. "Oh! You know my brother too," Mentioning Li Zhong, Fang Cheng became interested. "Yes, I've had a few drinks with Chief Li." "Come over and sit down, I've been too busy these past few years to visit him. Tell me, how has he been recently?" Fang Cheng patted the sofa to motion Xia Liu over. It didn't take long for Xia Liu and Fang Cheng to hit it off, and with a common connection, the two chatted with great enthusiasm. "Fei'er, I heard that Xia Liu used to be quite terrifying," Lin Shuxia whispered to her daughter at one side, inquiringly. "Mom, where did you hear that from? If it weren't for Xia Liu this time, everyone on the ship might have been killed by pirates." "Your grandfather also mentioned it yesterday. I can sense that Xia Liu must be a good person." Although Lin Shuxia was still worried, she couldn't help but notice the brilliant smile that bloomed on her daughter's face whenever she spoke of Xia Liu. It made her heart almost burst with joy. If she continued to stop her daughter, it might lead to undesirable consequences. "Xia Liu, didn't you just buy something for mom and dad? Hurry up and bring it out." "Oh! I almost forgot, Aunt Lin, this is the Beauty Mud I made this morning, for you," Xia Liu said as he handed over a box containing Beauty Mud to Lin Shuxia. "Beauty Mud?" "Mom, this is the stuff that was a nation-wide craze recently. Eventually, even ten million couldn't buy Beauty Mud," Fang Fei explained promptly, seeing her mother's puzzled look. "What! Is that true?" Lin Shuxia's eyes widened in disbelief, hardly able to believe that the unassuming box held the very thing she had been dreaming of. "I remember that Beauty Mud is produced by Tianluo Pharmaceutical. Xia Liu, you said you made it this morning, this..." Fang Cheng had some knowledge of Beauty Mud; after all, in the past, he had been constantly pressured to buy it. Despite searching countless channels, he was never able to get a box, which caused him no small amount of grief from Lin Shuxia. "I'm responsible for producing Beauty Mud; Tianluo Pharmaceutical handles the packaging and sales." "Wow! Thank you so much, Xia Liu, I'm going to try this Beauty Mud right now!" Lin Shuxia didn't want to say more, she immediately pulled Fang Fei and headed out. "Heh, it figures that the Nether Emperor is the Nether Emperor, able to create such miraculous things like Beauty Mud," Fang Cheng couldn't help but praise after a long time without seeing his wife so excited. "Uncle Fang is joking. 'Nether Emperor' is just a title some bored people came up with; I was, am, and always will be Xia Liu." "Haha, I can tell you are very outstanding, but you brought something for Aunt Lin, what about me?" Fang Cheng asked unabashedly. "Heh, Uncle Lin, don't worry, I definitely haven't forgotten about yours," Xia Liu said as he brought out the medicinal liquor. "This is?" "This is the second product of my cooperation with Tianluo Pharmaceutical, medicinal liquor." "That medicinal liquor from Tianluo Pharmaceutical that sold out as soon as it hit the market?" Fang Cheng found it hard to breathe. He had been keeping an eye on Tianluo Pharmaceutical, an enterprise that soared to great heights, and was particularly interested in their new product. Because of the medicinal liquor's effects, people said it was incredibly potent.
