"That five billion, you don't need to give it to me. Consider it a dowry for Li Xiyun," Jiang Chen said.
Upon hearing Jiang Chen's words, Li Xiyun didn't know whether to cry or laugh. She wasn't familiar with Jiang Chen, and such a generous gift was overwhelming.
"Jiang Chen, you should take the money back. From now on, I have no ties with the Liu Family," Li Xiyun suddenly stated seriously.
"Xiyun, what are you saying? You’re pregnant," Li Xiyun quickly tried to persuade him, not wanting her efforts to be in vain.
"I'll go to the hospital tomorrow and terminate it," Li Xiyun said without hesitation.
Li Xiyun's mother was taken aback and hurriedly tried to dissuade her. On the other hand, Li Daotian seemed relieved. "Xiyun, Dad will accompany you to the hospital tomorrow."
"Husband, what are you saying? Xiyun has finally married into the Liu Family!" the bride's mother exclaimed excitedly.
"I never thought highly of it. Now that Xiyun has come to her senses, it's for the best. Besides, look at Liu Jiyue; he’s already an old man. If Xiyun marries him, it would be a laughingstock," Li Daotian remarked.
Even if his daughter were to have an abortion, he still didn't want her marrying into the Liu Family.
"We could ask Jiang Chen to restore Jiyue's appearance," Li Xiyun's mother suggested.
"Then you can go plead with Jiang Chen," Li Daotian replied.
"Me? Jiang Chen wouldn't give me face," Li Xiyun's mother admitted with self-awareness. She glanced at Jiang Chen; although she had a thick skin, she found it difficult to ask for help.
Jiang Chen looked at Li Xiyun and was not surprised by her sudden decision. Although the Liu Family was wealthy, their character was poor, and it seemed that the Li family had long regretted their choice. Now, Li Xiyun certainly did not want to marry an old man.
"Xiyun, you can't terminate the pregnancy," Liu Jiyue said, though old and frail. Upon hearing this, he became agitated and reached out to grab Li Xiyun's hand in an attempt to persuade her. However, Li Xiyun had already made up her mind and pushed Liu Jiyue away.
"Since Xiyun doesn't want to marry into your Liu Family anymore, Liu Shao, you owe me that five billion; just give it directly to Uncle Li," Jiang Chen stated.
Upon hearing this, Li Daotian quickly waved his hand and said, "Jiang Chen, I appreciate your kindness, but I really can't accept this money."
"Uncle, please accept it! I'm not short on money!" Jiang Chen smiled slightly, his tone leaving no room for refusal.
Li Daotian had no choice but to awkwardly nod in agreement.
The cruise ship returned to Hong Kong Island around seven in the evening. Jiang Chen followed Gu Yun Nan as they left; everyone else went home. Although today's events were shocking, no one dared to speak out about them recklessly.
At Gu Yun Nan's residence, Jiang Chen encountered the Five Element Spirit Orbs.
Although Gu Yun Nan was reluctant, she had no choice but to part with them.
"By the way, Mr. Jiang, with Tu Li and others dead, the Holy Witch Cult will definitely pursue this matter. Everyone knows that Tu Li came to Hong Kong Island to challenge me; there's no way we can keep this under wraps. Do you have any plans?" Gu Yun Nan asked.
"The Holy Witch Cult is nothing but a minor concern; there's no need to worry about them," Jiang Chen replied dismissively.
"I heard from Tu Li that the Saint Witch Sect Leader has now reached a divine level in their cultivation, which is equivalent to a Land Immortal. Mr. Jiang, although you are exceptionally gifted, it's best to be cautious and not let your guard down," Gu Yun Nan reminded.
"It's better if they come looking for me. If they don't, I will find the time to seek them out. The Holy Witch Cult, I believe, has no reason to remain in this world," Jiang Chen replied, his tone always calm and unruffled.
"Uh, Mr. Jiang, do you have a history with the Holy Witch Cult?" Gu Yun Nan asked.
