Reborn: Married to the Demon King

Chapter 289: Poaching Talent

Chapter 289: Chapter 289: Poaching Talent

Mr. Wen chatted with Cheng Lie for a while longer.

The more he spoke with him, the more satisfied he felt, thinking that this young man was not only good-looking

on the outside but also quite profound. Not going to college didn’t matter; when the tcame, arranging some

further studies would be fine.

This smart kid probably got delayed because of a poor family background, right?

At this moment, Qin Chi Jin also cover and saw Cheng Lie talking to Mr. Wen, thinking that this Cheng Lie

was quite charming.

Mr. Wen looked at Qin Chi Jin, "Chi Jin, where did you find this young man? You've really found a gem."

Hearing Mr. Wen’s words, Qin Chi Jin couldn’t help but laugh.

But he also detected the underlying meaning in Mr. Wen’s words, so he said, "Mr. Wen, he’s someone I've

patiently waited many years for, you can’t just poach him away."

"How could I," Mr. Wen chuckled, glancing at Wen Lin. He already understood his granddaughter’s thoughts.

If she liked this boy, it would actually be quite nice.

Though his family background wasn’t great, if they groomed him well, having him becpart of the Wen

Family wouldn't be bad.

He should learn more about this young man from Qin Chi Jin another day.

Cheng Lie also noticed Wen Lin's gaze landing on him from tto time, but he pretended not to see it,

maintaining a stoic expression.

It was Wen Lin's first tmeeting such a cold and frosty man; her desire to conquer made her step forward to

talk to him.

"Your nis Cheng Lie, right? I'm Wen Lin, nice to meet you."

Saying this, she extended a hand gracefully.

Cheng Lie glanced at her, nodded slightly, which counted as a response.

Not shaking hands with her? Wen Lin's smile remained unchanged, but she wasn’t feeling great.

She never casually shook hands with others; this man...

However, looking at his young face, she surmised he rarely attended such grand occasions. With this thought,

Wen Lin felt relieved.

It doesn’t matter; she would befriend him well.

"I'm late!" A booming voice sounded at the entrance. With these words, everyone present fell silent.

The newcomer was none other than Qin Yumo.

Qin Yumo hadn't been invited today, but given his relationship with the Wen Family, he could enter even without

an invitation.

After all, he was currently the head of the Qin Family, the only son of Qin Guangtao.

Not long ago, he was almost successfully engaged to the Wen Family’s young lady, but he personally derailed

what could've been a good match.

Wen Lin saw Qin Yumo enter, pursed her lips tightly, and her eyes emitted a cold light; she looked displeased.

She really didn’t know why the butler let him in.

Qin Yumo swaggered up happily, but upon seeing Cheng Lie standing beside Mr. Wen, his face fell instantly.

Why was this man here too?

In an instant, anger ignited within him.

He hadn't even settled the score for the beating he gave him last time!

Qin Chi Jin sensed Qin Yumo’s anger, squinted his eyes, and stepped forward to block Cheng Lie, looking at Qin

Yumo, "Yumo, why are you here?"

Seeing Qin Chi Jin block Cheng Lie, Qin Yumo’s anger flared even more, but he forcibly repressed it, to the point

where he felt spain in his heart.

He had a smile at the corners of his lips again, but his eyes were deep and his body exceptionally tense, not at

all like someone happy.

The hand beside him clenched into a fist tightly, probably the only way to firmly restrain his anger.

"Uncle, can only you come, and | can’t?" Qin Yumo maintained a surface of carefree elegance, and as he spoke,

his aura had settled down, with his charming eyes once again covered with a beautiful sheen.

He couldn’t get angry; losing his temper now would mean defeat.

Although he usually acted flamboyantly, at critical moments, he couldn't act thus.

"You should have given snotice beforehand," Qin Chi Jin said.

"No need for notice, right? My relationship with Grandpa is so good." Qin Yumo looked at Mr. Wen.

Mr. Wen chuckled and nodded. Out of all the juniors, Qin Yumo was the only one who didn’t respect him with

reverence.

Though not entirely proper, he appreciated his charisma, which reminded him of himself in his youth.

Therefore, when Qin Guangtao discussed marriage matters with him, he thought Wen Lin and Qin Yumo were

suitable in age, and given their childhood friendship, he naturally didn’t oppose their engagement.

Even Wen Lin had no objections, but Qin Yumo reacted strongly, publicly refusing at the banquet Qin Guangtao

had planned for them.

Afterward, he apologized, saying he had no feelings for Wen Lin and didn’t want to involve her.

Mr. Wen understood him pretty well, so he didn’t force the matter.

After speaking, Qin Yumo glanced at Wen Lin again.

Seeing Wen Lin with Cheng Lie, they seemed quite a perfect match.

Qin Yumo chuckled with some

sarcasm, "Speople act Q9& way

cry if she saw this." The content is on

Thinking about Yun Shifei’s angry face not long ago, Qin Yumo thought that she must look pretty nice while

crying too.

He unexpectedly had a bit of a twisted desire to see her cry.

In Cheng Lie’s eyes, light refracted like snow and ice as he asked, "What did you say?"

With a cold tone and no emotion, Qin Chi Jin knew Cheng Lie was quite angry.

Qin Chi Jin, feeling a headache coming, immediately said, "Yumo, today is Mr. Wen’s birthday, what gift did you

bring for him?"

"Oh, speaking of that, Grandpa,

knowing you love all kinds of m

paintings, | secificai Had someone

fibellthe famous painting Lushan

Painting by Li Jiayun." The content is

Qin Yumo said, having someone beside him present the painting.

Qin Yumo unfolded the painting for Mr. Wen to see, "Grandpa, | went through a lot to find this, even money

couldn't buy it."

Mr. Wen'’s face lit up with excitement upon hearing of this famous painting. Lost during the war years, he didn’t

expect Qin Yumo to find it.

Qin Yumo unrolled the painting and placed it before Mr. Wen.

Mr. Wen looked closely at the artwork, feeling a faint excitement in his heart.

No wonder it's a masterpiece, so exquisite; the mountains, the water, the vegetation seemed randomly sketched

yet appeared as if they had a soul.

However, the more he looked, the more Mr. Wen frowned; though well-painted, something felt amiss.

At this moment, a voice beside him rang out: "This is a counterfeit."
