The Chosen System: Counterattack with Husband

When Kevin was led into Box No. 6 by Xu Yiyu and Lu Sanshi, he was still a little confused.

He didn't expect that the opponent who had competed so fiercely with him for the ownership of the dragon head a few minutes ago was actually Xu Yiyu, whom he met in Lucheng!

"Kevin, what a coincidence, I actually met you here."

When Xu Yiyu was greeting Kevin, Lu Sanshi beside her held Xu Yiyu's other hand tightly as if to declare ownership, and looked at Kevin with a bit of scrutiny.

"...Indeed, it's quite a coincidence."

For the first time, Kevin realized the situation he was facing and sat down on the mahogany chair opposite the two of them with a little embarrassment.

"Excuse me, why are you so obsessed with the competition for the Dragon Head? You are not Chinese."

Instead of beating around the bush, it is better to be direct. Xu Yiyu doesn't like to use his mind to make sarcastic remarks when interacting with acquaintances. It is too tiring.

"I want to ask you the same question, CC."

Kevin was not dissatisfied with the fact that the Dragon Head fell into Xu Yiyu's hands, but he was really curious about why Xu Yiyu had to take the Dragon Head.

After hearing this question, Xu Yiyu organized her words in her mind, and her eyes gradually became more distant and vast as she spoke.

"If you know and have studied Chinese history a little, you should know that we Chinese have had the legend of the twelve zodiac animals since a long time ago."

Kevin nodded: "Yes, I've heard Richard tell me about the story of the twelve zodiac signs, but I don't quite understand what it means to the Chinese people."

"It's a long story to tell about the legend of the twelve zodiac animals, but the main reason why I took the photo at all costs this time is that it should not have been taken away from China by the coalition forces in such a despicable and greedy way more than a century ago."

When talking about the war that happened more than 160 years ago, Kevin fell silent, which was unusual for him.

Although he knew very little about Chinese history, he had seen some fragmentary information about the war in the European history course at school when he was in Yidali's own country.

Although Yidali did not participate in that brutal looting, his ancestors participated in another more brutal looting and atrocities forty years after the war. Therefore, Kevin has always felt inexplicably guilty towards his Chinese friend Richard.

As a modern person with normal values, he really could not empathize with the two countries that started the war at that time.

Xu Yiyu noticed Kevin's heavy expression, but she smiled with some relief.

"You should know that there are millions of Chinese cultural relics stored in the exhibition halls and warehouses of the national museums of those two countries, right?"

"China is a great country and we disdain to do such sneaky things. So as a Chinese citizen, what I can do is to try my best to make sure that the things that originally belonged to China return home in an upright and dignified manner!"

After listening to Xu Yiyu's explanation, Kevin suddenly didn't know how to face this woman with a straight spine and a calm aura in front of him.

As a European, is he really qualified to question why a Chinese is fighting for the dragon head?

The dragon head of the Chinese zodiac originally belonged to China. In order to allow it to return to the embrace of the motherland, is there any need for any big principles to be stated openly?

"I'm sorry, CC, I was so presumptuous to ask this question before."

Kevin stood up with a serious expression, put one hand on his chest, and bowed slightly to Xu Yiyu.

"Chinese things should belong to China, no reason is needed."

Xu Yiyu sat upright and accepted Kevin's greeting without dodging or avoiding.

"I have no reason to accept your apology on behalf of my ancestors, but you will always be our friend."

Ten minutes later, at the door of Longtengju.

Kevin drove away from the venue first, but Xu Yiyu and Lu Sanshi took a walk around the outskirts of Longtengju for a while.

"Baby, are you okay?"

Lu Sanshi held Xu Yiyu's somewhat cold hand and walked slowly on the bluestone road. He turned his head and asked her with some concern.

There was something wrong with his baby when she mentioned the history of the dragon head in the box just now. Now that the guest had left, Lu Sanshi was finally able to express his concern for her.

"I'm fine, baby, I just feel a little..."

Xu Yiyu took a deep breath and paused for a few seconds before answering, as if searching for the right words in his mind.

“…I feel a little emotional.”

Lu Sanshi tightened his grip on Xu Yiyu's hand. He knew that any words of comfort would be pale and powerless at this moment. The most practical thing he could do was to give Xu Yiyu strength through his actions.

The two of them walked hand in hand, and before they knew it, they had reached the back door of Longtengju.

Tianlin had been driving behind the two hosts. When he saw that the time was almost up, he stopped the car and got out of the driver's seat.

"Ms. Yi Yu, Mr. San Shi, it's almost time. We should set off to meet Mr. Su."

Tianlin's reminder brought Xu Yiyu, whose thoughts had drifted away, back to her senses. She said "hmm" faintly, then opened the back door and sat in.

Lu Sanshi followed Xu Yiyu and ducked into the car, and Tianlin also returned to his driver's seat.

On the way to the agreed location, Xu Yiyu leaned on Lu Sanshi's shoulder with his eyes closed, preparing for the tough battle tonight.

Someone who has been in the entertainment industry for a long time is definitely not a simple person, and his understanding of this circle must be much deeper than hers. Although she is somewhat averse to social interactions, she does not want to show her timidity in the occasion later.

Today's dinner is related to the future development direction, planning and long-term layout of her entertainment company. She must be 100% alert and cautious, and must get useful information from those big guys.

Lu Sanshi wisely remained silent, but looked at his already tired baby with a distressed look, feeling a deep sense of guilt in his heart.

In an occasion like today, he couldn't do anything else for her except protecting his baby's safety!

This realization made Lu Sanshi feel a little depressed and frustrated, and also made him more determined to work harder after returning to Lucheng.

His own baby can work so hard for her career, so he can't fall too far behind. Even if he can't stand on the same level as her to help her, he must at least not be a burden to her.

The road to Juxiange Hotel is neither short nor long.

When Xu Yiyu, who accidentally fell asleep while resting his eyes, was woken up again by his classmate Sanshi, Tianlin had already parked the S500 steadily in the parking lot of Juxian Pavilion Hotel.

Su Zheng, who arrived first, noticed the Mercedes that parked at the right time. After getting out of the car and looking at the license plate carefully, he saw the Lucheng license plate on the car.

Su Zheng walked over slowly and stopped not far in front of the car.

When Xu Yiyu got off the car after Lu Sanshi, he happened to see Su Zheng standing in front of the car with a tall posture.

"Hello, Boss. Let's all three of us go in quickly."
