C3 My Wife Wang Ziyan Is Really Beautiful!

"However, if anyone asks about your occupation, don't tell them you're a stay-at-home husband. Instead, say you're in business with friends and that you're quite wealthy. Give my sister some respect, will you? Don't go around tarnishing our family's reputation!"

Xiao Nan hadn't anticipated that the Wang family would be hosting a family gathering the next day with an important announcement on the agenda.

He nodded and replied, "Alright, I understand."

"That's more like it. Just follow my instructions when the time comes. Now, off you go, stop being an eyesore here. Go get some sleep," Ziyun commanded.

With that, Wang Ziyun paid no further attention to Xiao Nan, her laughter indicating that she was clearly amused by something her best friend had sent her on her phone.

Xiao Nan silently made his way back to his room.

His room, a mere ten square meters, was a converted bathroom.

Surveying his surroundings, Xiao Nan's smile turned more bitter. "What a mess this is. Here I am, a big master, living in such conditions. No one would believe it if I told them. Like earlier, when I effortlessly took down Han Xuan, the world's twenty-third ranked assassin. Are you even aware of that? You're all like frogs in a well, completely oblivious to the true strength of those around you."

Muttering to himself, Xiao Nan began his practice.

His master, whom Xiao Nan always referred to as the old man because his real name was unknown to him, was known by the nickname Xiaoyao.

Xiao Nan had grown accustomed to calling him old man, and from him, he had learned a cultivation technique known as the Five Elements Spell.

Legend had it that mastering this spell could lead one to transcend mortality.

In addition to the Five Elements Spell, the old man had imparted a wealth of diverse knowledge to Xiao Nan, including expertise in calligraphy, painting, antique medicine, pharmacology, and even agriculture.

Xiao Nan had been diligently practicing the Five Elements Spell and, without realizing it, had attained the legendary status of a big master.

Each day, Xiao Nan replaced sleep with cultivation, resulting in him waking up not only refreshed but also brimming with vitality and enjoying every meal.

However, after a session of cultivation today, Xiao Nan felt restless and decided to actually lie down and sleep.

The night slipped away quietly.

As dawn broke, Xiao Nan was still sound asleep when a sudden knock on the door jolted him awake. Before he could even stir, the door swung open with force.

"Why are you still in bed? Do you have any idea what time it is? You're supposed to be taking Ziyan to work, and here you are, still sleeping! Get up now, you lazy pig!" Zhang Manli, his mother-in-law, stormed into the room.

Zhang Manli was dressed to the nines today, as if she had some special event to attend. She exuded the leisurely elegance and mature allure of a high-society lady, clad in a sky-blue cheongsam, her face adorned with meticulous makeup, and her hair swept up into a stylish bun. She was the very picture of a woman whose beauty has matured with age. Yet, her brows were furrowed, her eyes shooting daggers.

Due to the stifling heat in the house, Xiao Nan had gone to sleep in just his shorts. When Zhang Manli entered, she marched straight to his bed and flipped the blanket off, catching sight of Xiao Nan's bare skin. She let out a sharp scream in response.

Her anger intensified, and with a loud thump, she kicked Xiao Nan's thigh.

Truth be told, Xiao Nan had been awake since Zhang Manli's outcry. But he hadn't anticipated that his mother-in-law would be bold enough to yank off his covers and then proceed to kick him.

Xiao Nan, fighting the urge to explode with anger, opened his eyes and glanced at Zhang Manli, then swallowed his rage.

"Alright, alright... I get it. I'm getting ready, right now..."

"Hmph, you're utterly useless, so incredibly lazy. All you do is eat and sleep! Do you realize Ziyan has an important business deal today? What if your dawdling causes a mistake? Get up, and make it quick..."

...

After giving Xiao Nan an earful, Zhang Manli huffed and stormed out of the room.

Xiao Nan hurriedly dressed and rushed out of the house.

He was usually in charge of preparing breakfast, but today he had overslept. Under the scornful eyes and mocking comments of Wang Ziyun and Zhang Manli, he managed to throw together a simple meal of hot bread and milk for everyone to make do with.

"Look, you can't even have a proper breakfast because you overslept. Now, you've missed out on the dishes and have to make do with just milk and bread. I've got nothing more to say!"

"Exactly. You can't afford to wake up this late again. A poor breakfast leads to poor studying. And then who will you blame? Can you handle that responsibility?"

Wang Ziyan emerged from her room, looking exceptionally stunning today, exuding the poise of a white-collar professional. She was dressed in a wine-red suit that radiated a commanding presence. Her ears were adorned with large earrings, and her shoulder-length hair was elegantly tied into a bun, leaving only her bangs and a few strands by her ears, which gave her a clean and fresh appearance. Her cherry-red lips and bright eyes complemented the suit, enhancing her formidable aura. The white shirt she wore clung to her figure, accentuating the curves of her chest. The suit pants paired with sparkling high heels studded with crystals elongated her legs, while her well-defined buttocks were more pronounced. In essence, her every move was imbued with an indescribable beauty.

Xiao Nan was captivated at the sight. In the Wang family, despite Wang Ziyan's generally cold demeanor towards him, she seldom ridiculed or reprimanded him. At this moment, Wang Ziyan merely glanced at Zhang Manli and Wang Ziyun, saying nothing. She gave Xiao Nan a brief, cool look before quickly finishing her breakfast. Amidst the sneers from his mother-in-law and sister-in-law, Xiao Nan had little appetite.

Once Wang Ziyan was done with her meal, Xiao Nan promptly got ready to drive her to the company. The Wang family was a prominent clan, long established in the technology sector.
