Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
As time pa.s.sed, Ma San’s heart became more and more uncertain. This Yan Kuan did not move at all. Wasn’t it obvious that he was watching a good show and wanted an answer from him?
However, he had to admit that this Yan Kuan had used his heir to threaten him. He had pinched his weak point. This daughter was his lifeline. Back then, he had been extremely careful when he wanted this daughter. From the time she was conceived until the child was two years old, he had not even glanced at her. He was afraid that someone would find out and ruin the child’s life.
His family had been in the Ouyang family for generations. He had seen too much of the bed partner’s s.e.xual intercourse as a tool to vent, and almost none of them had a good ending.
Moreover, the current Ouyang was the same as the other people in China. They were monogamous. Even if the s.e.xual intercourse still existed in the Ouyang family, without an heir, there was no hope in this life!
So, how could he let his daughter be destroyed by the Ouyang family?
However, he could not bear to destroy his position in the Ouyang family that he had been running for decades. To be honest, those young ladies and young masters did not live as comfortably and happily as he did. When they saw him, they would respectfully call him ‘Third Master’. How many people in the Ouyang family dared to act arrogantly in front of him?
He had been a tyrant in the Ouyang family for many years, enjoying all the glory and wealth. His only master was Ouyang Tian. Under him, many wealthy businessmen and government officials had to be respectful when they saw him. Now, he wanted him to give up all of this? He could not bear to do so. He could not bear to do so!
“You can’t bear to do so, right? It’s alright. If you can’t bear to do so, then you can continue to be a head butler. However, my Dark Empire is still missing an auditor. Just let her enter our Dark Empire!”
After Yan Kuan finished speaking, Ma San’s eyes widened. What did Yan Kuan mean? He wanted to let his daughter work in the Dark Empire? Would the Dark Empire lack an auditor? What kind of joke was this? What exactly did he want to do?
“What exactly do you want to do?” Ma San could not grasp Yan Kuan’s train of thought. The Black Emperor’s thoughts were so deep that he actually could not guess it.
“Don’t you understand the literal meaning?”
Ma San was furious. What did the literal meaning mean? However, he really believed that Yan Kuan would do what he said. Was there any way that Yan Kuan could let him go and save his daughter?
Ma San’s mind spun rapidly. Although he could not move his limbs, his thoughts did not stop.
Yan Kuan looked at Ma San and did not say anything to disturb him. He could think about it. He could think about it carefully. If he did not come to terms with it, he would be the one regretting it!
Time slowly pa.s.sed. The sunlight outside was still extremely hot, but the cold sweat on Ma San’s forehead had not stopped. It was too difficult to think of a way to achieve the best of both worlds.
“I can continue to treat you as a fake Yan Kuan. Can you let my daughter go?”
Yan Kuan raised his eyebrows and looked at Ma San. After thinking for a long time, he came up with such an answer?
“It seems that you have already made a choice between your daughter and power?”
“You, you, you…”
“Why? Do you think you are so powerful that you have seen through my ident.i.ty?”
Ma San’s face was ashen from Yan Kuan’s sarcastic words. Indeed, if Yan Kuan had not intentionally revealed a flaw, he would not have been able to discover it at all. Then, this was the only way now. Ma San hardened his heart and finally said:
“I can be your spy for the Ouyang family and keep your ident.i.ty a secret for you, but you have to ensure the safety of my daughter.”
Yan Kuan smiled and said to Ma San:
“I’ve said it before. Up until now, no one in the Dark Empire has dared to move with such a long hand. The K-ONE you’re handling now is just something I deliberately took out for you to play with. The Ouyang family wants to swallow the Dark Empire? Isn’t that a dream!? Even in China, you can’t be called a king, let alone in the whole world! The old man is ambitious, but not realistic enough!”
He knew that Yan Kuan actually knew the Ouyang family’s plan. They had indeed underestimated the Black Emperor. It seemed that they had only reached the edge of his ability.
“Since you know the Ouyang family’s plan, why did you still get involved?”
Ma San asked the question in his heart. He had always felt that this question was strange. This Yan Kuan seemed to have a special dislike for the Ouyang family from the very beginning. He had even visited the Ouyang family at night. They were originally two powerhouses who did not interfere with each other’s business. Why did the Dark Empire seem to have a provocative intention no matter how he looked at it?
“I don’t like people who are more arrogant than me. Is this reason satisfactory?”
Ma San was choked by this powerful reason. He could not find any words to reply Yan Kuan for a long time. He just stared at him blankly. This was the first time he had seen such a powerful and shameless person!
“Alright, since we have reached an agreement, then it’s easy to handle. As for the cooperation between K-ONE and The Pavilion, I advise you to choose another person. Since we are now on the same side, I will sell you a piece of news. Ouyang Tian’s plan for Pei Li should be changed. A man with a naturally atrophied reproductive system and a eunuch with crippled limbs, I don’t know what you want. This news will at most be protected for half a month. In half a month, the Ouyang family will be humiliated again. They deserve it.”
Yan Kuan did not care about Ma San’s shocked expression at all. He stood up, patted his clothes, and walked out in a carefree manner.
“In half an hour, the acupoints will be opened automatically. Think about it yourself!”
Once Yan Kuan left, Ma San stood in the same spot, trying to move around, but he could not move at all. He waited for half an hour before he could move his stiff limbs again.
The first thing he did was to call his daughter. However, after he hung up the phone, Ma San realized that not only was Yan Kuan right, at this moment, even the lover who was pregnant with the child had been taken away. Ma San knew that it was impossible for him not to board the s.h.i.+p.
…
Yan Kuan sat in the car. He had been waiting secretly for a long time. As soon as he got into the car, Yan Kuan asked, “Did Xiaoxiao and 19 go out?”
“Yes, 19 said that Miss wanted to eat wontons. They went to eat wontons together.”
Yan Kuan smiled helplessly. This gluttonous kitten. However, it was a blessing that she could eat. If she could eat, the child in her stomach could eat.
“Go pick them up.”
…
When Yan Kuan walked to the stall, he happened to see two empty bowls in front of Shen Xiaoxiao. There was still a bowl in front of her that she was happily eating. 19 stood at the side and looked at her foolishly. He probably did not expect this little thing to eat so much!
“Nineteen, it’s so delicious. What if I still want to eat it?”
“Even if you still want to eat it, you can’t. Be careful of your stomach.”
Shen Xiaoxiao turned to look. Why was he here? Didn’t he say that he was going to a meeting? It ended so quickly?
“19, pay the bill. Let’s go for a walk. You’re not allowed to eat so much. Didn’t you say that you want to buy some clothes? Let’s go. I’m free today to accompany you.”
Shen Xiaoxiao was dragged along by Yan Kuan. Although she was unwilling, she thought about the clothes and didn’t reject it anymore. She had wanted to buy those clothes for a long time, but she didn’t dare to buy them in the past because she was afraid of being discovered. Now that she had the chance, of course she wanted to go shopping. Wasn’t there a shopping mall next to them? Just nice!
The two of them walked into the shopping mall arm in arm. Summer had arrived, and Shen Xiaoxiao was wearing a long dress. She was originally thin and small, and with this cover, not only did it cover her stomach, but this person also looked a little younger than her actual age.
Not long after the two of them entered the mall, a female voice suddenly sounded from behind them:
“Yan, why aren’t you at the office? Why are you here?”
