Ultimate Supreme Soldier King

Any condition?

Xia's mom originally did not want to discuss conditions with Su Chen.

Because this matter was related to her dignity.

Dignity isn't something a few conditions could restore.

But since Su Chen dared to make such a bold request,

she couldn't blame her for being difficult.

"Alright, since you've said so, I, as a mother, cannot be too unreasonable. They say there are three hardest things to do in the world: one is spilt water cannot be retrieved, two is a broken mirror cannot be made whole again, and three is resurrection from death. Resurrecting the dead is indeed too much to ask for, so you just accomplish the first two for me, then you can take Xia Yan away."

Spilt water cannot be retrieved, broken mirrors cannot be mended, resurrection from death.

These are the hardest things to achieve in the world.

Obviously, the conditions Xia's mom set were just to make things difficult for Su Chen.

"How can this possibly be done?"

"How? Can't do it? Weren't you just bragging, saying you could satisfy any condition I proposed?" Xia's mom snorted.

"Aunt, are you serious?" Su Chen spoke up.

"Serious."

Su Chen nodded and said, "Then if I fulfill these two conditions, can we consider this matter settled?"

"Fine."

Then, everyone's gaze fell on Su Chen.

Everyone wanted to know how Su Chen would accomplish these difficult tasks.

Su Chen's expression, however, was confident.

"Firstly, the first task, spilt water cannot be retrieved, Xia Yan, lend me your makeup sponge," Su Chen said to Xia Yan.

Xia Yan fetched a makeup sponge.

Su Chen also just got a cup of water.

Then, he directly poured the water from the cup onto the sponge.

After the sponge absorbed all the water, he picked up the sponge and squeezed the water back into the cup.

"Aunt, does this count as retrieving spilt water?" Su Chen said, holding up the cup of water.

"You this..."

Although this method was a bit tricky,

Indeed, it could count as retrieving spilt water.

Xia Yan watched the man with a light smile on his face, and she couldn't help but admire him a bit, wondering why something so difficult seemed so simple when it came to him?

Others were also amazed.

"Alright, I'll accept that," Xia's mom said with a frown.

"Good, now, I'll do the second task, mending a broken mirror." Su Chen still wore a confident smile.

Everyone was curious again.

How would Su Chen manage to mend a broken mirror?

Retrieving spilt water could be tricked.

But how to mend a broken mirror?

That's too difficult.

After all, once a mirror is shattered, restoring it to its original form is practically impossible.

"Wait a moment for me." Amid everyone's confusion, Su Chen left the complex.

Soon, twenty minutes passed, but Su Chen hadn't returned.

"That kid isn't coming back, is he?"

Half an hour later, Su Chen still hadn't returned.

"I reckon he doesn't know how to mend a mirror, so he dared not come back."

"Xia Yan, now you see what kind of man he is, right?"

"…"

All the aunties and ladies began persuading Xia Yan again.

But Xia Yan's gaze remained fixed on the doorway.

She believed that man would definitely come back!

"Xia Yan, give it up, he's not coming back." Xia's mom also shook her head.

Actually, Xia's mom is a very clever woman.

Although it was her first meeting with Su Chen.

But based on Su Chen's various performances.

This truly is an outstanding man.

From being initially whacked by her duster to later being scolded by him.

If it were any other man, they would have blown up long ago.

But, Su Chen always maintained his composure.

Moreover, the expression on his face always gave a reassuring feeling.

This was not something a 22-year-old man could usually convey.

Xia's mother had even thought.

If Su Chen could really accomplish these two things, then let him take Xia Yan away.

After all, Xia Yan was her biological daughter, and she understood Xia Yan's character well.

If it weren't for something that violated her principles, Xia Yan would absolutely not do such a thing.

But now, the main problem was that too many relatives knew, and if she didn't find a way to step down, she wouldn't be able to save face.

However, Su Chen left and did not return.

Suddenly, she felt that maybe she had misjudged him.

Just when everyone thought Su Chen wouldn't come back, the doorbell rang.

Xia Yan ran to the door quickly.

She opened the door.

There, Su Chen stood at the doorstep.

When Xia Yan saw Su Chen return, her tears nearly burst forth.

She even wanted to throw herself into this man's arms.

But now was not the suitable time to do so.

You see, in those previous tense minutes.

Although she trusted Su Chen.

As time passed, she slowly started to feel insecure.

After all, it was a very difficult task to accomplish.

It was reasonable if Su Chen couldn't complete it.

But what if Su Chen really didn't come back? What would she do then?

Agree to Yang Jiajun's request.

Perhaps, given Yang Jiajun's character, after the first time, there would be a second...

The thought of living a life worse than death was terrifying to Xia Yan.

"I'm sorry, this thing was a bit difficult to handle..." Su Chen apologized somewhat.

Su Chen carried a bag in his hand and then walked into the living room.

He asked Xia Yan to fetch a plate.

Then, he poured the contents of the bag onto the plate.

Instantly, some silver liquid flowed into the plate.

This was…

Mercury!

Soon, the mercury filled the plate.

It looked just like a mirror, reflecting his face.

Su Chen gently blew onto the surface of the mercury.

The mercury immediately rippled as if it were broken.

He stopped blowing, and the mercury quickly returned to calm.

"Auntie, would this count as mending a broken mirror?" Su Chen asked Xia's mother lightly, looking at her.

Xia's mother stared intently at this man.

Seemingly trying to see through him with her four to five decades of life experience.

Regrettably, all she could see were a pair of pure and profound eyes.

She couldn't see through this man.

If it were any common man, having accomplished such challenging tasks,

He would certainly be very pleased.

But Su Chen remained calm.

Neither arrogant nor rash.

Gracefully composed.

If not considering financial aspects.

Just from the personality perspective alone, Su Chen indeed surpassed Yang Jiajun.

In fact, this move of Yang Jiajun had also angered Xia's mother somewhat.

Family scandals should not be publicized.

If Yang Jiajun had only sought her out alone, perhaps, there might be a chance for reconciliation.

But Yang Jiajun ended up calling all the relatives over.

She figured that even if this matter settled down, Xia Yan would probably not continue with Yang Jiajun...

It might as well let Su Chen take her away.
