His Genius Wife Is A Superstar novel Chapter 1244

Chapter 1244 - Clash

It was a good thing that the old man's nerve-wracking scrutiny didn't last long. René Alejandro released the breath that he had been holding. Lu Jianhong grinned at him and then suddenly began smacking him on the back. He was shocked by the force at first, especially since he wasn't expecting it at all. Such an old man and still so strong, Lu Jianhong was quite impressive for his advanced age.

"Welcome, kid! Are Liwei my boy and Xiulan my girl hosting you well tonight? Tell me, I want to know!"

René Alejandro smiled at him while allowing himself to be smacked. "Thank you, Sir Lu. Yes, please do not worry. They are wonderful hosts, as I'm sure everyone here will attest, no? All of you are so kind that I feel like I'm having Christmas with my own family."

"Good! Very good!"

The old man narrowed his eyes at René Alejandro who continued smiling at him like there was nothing wrong. Mischief flashed in the old man's eyes. Then the smacks became louder and heavier, making the surrounding people wince. [Read official chapters on W e b n o v e l (dot) com. Please stop supporting piracy.

"Sir Lu must tell me about your secrets in maintaining your youth, yes? You are as strong as a bull. I want to be like you when I reach your age. And hopefully, I reach that age."

"Bahahahahaha! Not bad. Not bad at all! Bahahahaha!"

The old man gave him a final smack on the back. It was the hardest and heaviest. The sound was so loud that some thought René Alejandro should have flown across the room and crashed against the wall. When he didn't and maintained an amiable smile on his face, even managing to look relaxed, they were quite surprised.

All of the men who received the old man's smacks looked like they were going to vomit their internal organs, including Jin Liwei. Only one had ever been able to take the smacks without any change in expression—Lu Zihao.

And now, another one appeared.

For René Alejandro, the smacks were really nothing. Yes, he could feel the impact but his sturdy body hardened through training and experience since childhood didn't allow him to register pain in the same way as normal people did. Compared to the countless life and death experiences he went through in life, the old man's smacks were almost ticklish for someone like him.

"You have quite a solid body," Lu Jianhong commented. "Like my grandson! Haohao, come here and meet this sturdy, Spanish kid!"

René Alejandro glanced behind the old man and saw a big, muscled man. His breath caught in his throat as Lu Zihao's dark eyes bored down on him like a charging bulldozer. The man was huge. René Alejandro was already tall but Lu Zihao towered over him not only in height but also in build. Those muscles were simply incredible. They were definitely bigger and bulkier than average Olympic-level athletes but sleeker and more natural than hardcore bodybuilders.

These thoughts weren't at the forefront of René Alejandro's mind, however, because he was too busy dealing with the man's domineering aura. His pupils contracted.

For some reason, an image of a vengeful, dark and evil emperor appeared in his mind and looked like it was going to swallow his consciousness. The image sent a chill up his spine which stunned him.

'This!'

His mask almost cracked before the old man smacked his grandson's back next. The sounds alone indicated that the smacks he was giving Lu Zihao were the hardest and heaviest out of all the smacks he gave the others including René Alejandro.
