The Beautiful CEO's Super Soldier King
Chapter 1924: Can an Elixir Be a Gift?
A dazzling golden evening gown combining both Western and Eastern styles adorned Chen Xijun, making her the most radiant jewel of the night.
The styles of evening gowns varied, the Western-style long gowns were bold and fiery, highlighting feminine charm.
The Eastern-style evening gowns were noble and elegant, embodying a unique Oriental charm.
When Eastern and Western styles merged, they dazzled the entire audience without a doubt.
Chen Xijun’s tall stature made her a natural clothing hanger.
The mermaid-like hem of her golden long dress accentuated her figure!
As soon as Chen Xijun appeared, she captured everyone’s attention.
Although Shang Xue’s looks did not lose to Chen Xijun, she couldn’t match her aura.
Even Ye Chenfeng couldn’t help but glance a few more times, after all, it had been a long time since he last saw her.
"Brother, stop!"
Chen Xijun quickly walked up to Chen Chongshan and forcefully stopped him.
"Sister, although causing trouble at your birthday party is wrong, I can’t help it. I’ll make it up to you later. Today, I must teach this person a lesson!"
After Chen Chongshan finished speaking, he was about to charge at Ye Chenfeng.
"Brother, you can’t touch him!"
Chen Xijun shouted hysterically.
"Can’t touch him? Why?"
Chen Chongshan asked incredulously.
"Because you’ll die,"
Chen Xijun silently said to herself.
"Brother, if you insist on making a move today, then don’t recognize me as your sister anymore."
Chen Xijun used her trump card.
In the Chen Family, she was the princess, especially after she returned, everyone cherished her.
Including Chen Chongshan.
The venue suddenly fell silent, and after a moment, Chen Chongshan gave Ye Chenfeng a deep look and said, "Alright, sister, I’ll give you face. Kid, you won’t get away."
Chen Chongshan made a killing gesture at Ye Chenfeng, extremely arrogant.
Ye Chenfeng just smiled, if it weren’t for being Chen Xijun’s older brother, he would have long gone to report to King Yan.
Chen Xijun exchanged a glance with Ye Chenfeng, words were unnecessary...
"Ladies and gentlemen..."
Subsequently, Chen Xijun apologized to everyone.
After that, the birthday party continued.
Ye Chenfeng remained seated in his original position, and Chen Xijun also moved away from him.
They seemed like ordinary friends.
The earlier incident seemed to have no impact on the birthday party.
The atmosphere reached a fever pitch.
Everyone also began presenting gifts to Chen Xijun.
The attendees were either wealthy or noble, and the gifts they gave were invaluable.
"Miss Chen, this small gift is a token of respect!"
Mo Zilong presented Chen Xijun with a gift box.
When the gift box opened, it revealed a jewelry necklace.
"I recognize this necklace, it was auctioned in Macau last month, apparently for three million."
Someone recognized the gift Mo Zilong gave.
"Hiss!"
The crowd collectively gasped, eyes filled with shock and awe.
"Mo Zilong has great taste, knowing what girls like."
Subsequently, people continued to present gifts, accompanied by continuous gasps from the crowd.
"Sister, their gifts are too ordinary. Brother will give you a better one."
Chen Chongshan said boldly, taking out an exquisite box from his pocket.
"Big brother, what gift is it?"
Chen Xijun asked curiously.
"Take a guess?"
Chen Chongshan replied with a smile.
Chen Xijun’s beautiful eyes sparkled, and she exclaimed with surprise, "It’s not something ordinary, is it? Either a Martial Artist’s treasure or a Magic Artifact from a Divine Sense master."
Everyone else was curious, their gaze fixed on Chen Xijun and her brother.
"As expected of my sister, you guessed the general direction. But, you haven’t guessed the specifics."
Chen Chongshan smiled.
"So, what exactly is it, brother?"
Chen Xijun grew more curious.
"It’s an elixir,"
Chen Chongshan said with cold pride.
The term "elixir" might be unfamiliar to ordinary people, but everyone present was from Lan City’s upper circles.
Everyone naturally had some understanding of "elixirs"...
"What? An elixir? Is it an elixir concocted by an Alchemist?"
"This is a priceless item, definitely not something found in the mundane world."
...
The venue erupted instantly.
Expressions of surprise, bewilderment, and envy intertwined on faces.
"An elixir?"
Chen Xijun exclaimed in astonishment.
"That’s right, this is a Youthful Beauty Pill. I’m giving it to you, sister!"
Chen Chongshan handed over the small box to Chen Xijun with a proud expression.
"Youthful Beauty Pill?"
The women present breathed rapidly, casting curious glances.
Chen Chongshan scanned the venue and said calmly, "Yes, taking this elixir can enhance skin and improve beauty. It’s a hundred times better than your usual cosmetics. It’s not an exaggeration to say it can preserve youth forever."
"Is that true?"
"Is there really such a miraculous elixir in the world?"
...
All the women in the audience were frenzied, their eyes full of hopeful looks.
"So, Chen, where did you get this elixir from?"
Someone asked.
The other women pricked up their ears, faces full of curiosity.
"This elixir was made by the Alchemist Li Dajiang. I have good connections with two of his apprentices. Obtaining this elixir is not difficult. For others, it’s not possible at all."
Chen Chongshan snorted coldly.
"Li Dajiang? Could he be a former apprentice of the Medicine Clan’s Fan Jingfeng?"
"It’s said that they were all top-notch Alchemists, an elixir could not only improve cultivation but also bring the dead back to life."
"This Li Dajiang is an Alchemist, a prestigious guest among many Martial Arts experts or great families!"
...
Someone who knew revealed all the information they had.
"My goodness, the value of this gift is too extravagant, isn’t it?"
"Yes, it instantly surpasses the necklace Mo Zilong gave."
The atmosphere at the venue was intense, reaching its peak.
Even Mo Zilong couldn’t help but nod, "Indeed, an elixir is priceless, incomparable to mundane items."
Chen Chongshan looked proud, while Chen Xijun’s expression was somewhat complex.
Afterwards, more people continued to give gifts.
But no matter what was given, it ultimately paled compared to Chen Chongshan’s elixir.
Almost everyone had given their gifts, and Cai Zihang’s gaze involuntarily landed on Ye Chenfeng, "This gentleman, you seem to have an extraordinary status. Today is Miss Chen Xijun’s birthday, didn’t you prepare a gift? After all, you came here voluntarily, symbolizing your congratulations to Miss Chen."
"Yes, everyone who came here prepared a gift for Miss Chen."
Everyone looked towards Ye Chenfeng.
"Yes, did you prepare a gift? Show us!"
Chen Chongshan asked Ye Chenfeng with a sneer.
He was very displeased with someone suddenly appearing in his sister’s life.
"Yes, let’s see it."
Others echoed with jeering.
Even Chen Xijun couldn’t help but glance over, her face showing a tinge of expectancy.
After all, it was her birthday, she also anticipated gifts.
And she most looked forward to Ye Chenfeng’s gift...
Of course, his presence was the best gift!
Ye Chenfeng rubbed his temples, smiling wryly, "I actually forgot."
"..."
Chen Xijun’s expression changed slightly, her heart suddenly feeling empty, as if she lost something.
"Hahaha..."
Laughter erupted at the venue, almost everyone looked at Ye Chenfeng with disdain.
"It seems we’ve put him in a difficult position."
Mo Zilong said blandly.
Shang Xue and Yu Shijia were tense.
Although Ye Chenfeng’s identity was special, being unable to present a gift was awkward.
"However..."
But at that moment, Ye Chenfeng spoke again.
"However what..."
Everyone looked at him curiously.
Ye Chenfeng looked at everyone, confused, "Can an elixir be a gift?"
