Chapter 384: A Bad Premonition
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Half a month pa.s.sed in the blink of an eye. No matter how Ouyang Tian recovered, the time had come.
Recently, Ouyang Jincheng had been very pleased with himself. He felt that the whole world was beckoning to him, as if the future was in his hands. Not only did he become more arrogant in the outside world, but he also began to have no scruples in the Ouyang family. He even directly enjoyed the three maids once again. Such actions made Ouyang Tian, who was secretly observing from the side, feel even more dissatisfied.
He was indeed a useless descendant. Even at this time, he still wanted to play by himself. On the other hand, Pei Li was a smart person, but he was too smart. He actually thought of a way out at this time. On one hand, he wanted the benefits of the Ouyang family. On the other hand, he was afraid of getting into trouble. How could there be such an easy thing in this world?
Ouyang Tian actually knew very well how big the risk of this matter was. However, he could not wait any longer. He was eager to see the result. Moreover, he had already calculated many times over the past few decades. It should be foolproof. As long as the National Banquet started… Their wish of waiting for a thousand years would be fulfilled.
Huo Wanting was also sitting in the courtyard, unable to sleep. Tomorrow was the critical moment, and she always felt uneasy. Perhaps the Ouyang family wouldn’t be able to sleep tonight. In order to prevent the news from leaking out… the family members who knew something were all quarantined in the Ouyang family’s main residence. Huo Wanting rested on Liu He’s arm and didn’t say anything.
If the Ouyang family failed, as a woman, she would definitely be fine. After all, it was not the ancient times that involved the nine families. As long as the women had never touched those things, nothing would happen to them.
This was also thanks to the Ouyang family’s rules. Women were not allowed to get involved in too much of the Ouyang family’s business. As for men, including her two sons, they would probably not be able to escape this time. Fortunately, she had sent San’er out in advance. Fortunately, San’er was still in university. It would not burn him, so she was relieved. If she could save one, then so be it. If it worked out, everyone would be happy. If it failed, at worst, she would lose her life.
Only Liu He and her, sigh!
“Liu He, I’ll serve you!”
Liu He did not expect Huo Wanting to be so interested at this time. He had come back to accompany Huo Wanting to die. He had even made arrangements that if the matter failed, his men would immediately get rid of Nanny Dong. Then, he would run away with Huo Wanting. He was not afraid of anything happening. However, seeing how worried Huo Wanting was, Liu He decided to let Huo Wanting be happy first.
After a round of s*x, Liu He was drowsy. Huo Wanting took the small bottle prepared by the side and placed it under Liu He’s nose. This thing could make people unable to wake up for at least 24 hours. When Liu He woke up… Everything would be settled.
“Bi He, have the people been arranged?”
“Master, it has been arranged. They will leave through the corner door. The plane is ready.”
“Okay.”
Liu He was sent away. Huo Wanting exhaled. This was all she could do. Liu He had also fallen in love with her.
All these years, she had enjoyed all the wealth and power in the world. She only dreamed about it in the middle of the night and did not even have a confidant. At this critical moment, she finally saw what she wanted. However, it was too late.
…
“You said that you are going to attend tonight’s National Banquet? Are you going with your ident.i.ty?”
Shen Xiaoxiao’s eyes widened at this moment. Was this Yan Kuan joking? He was actually going to attend National Banquet? That was the National Banquet!
Yan Kuan tidied his clothes and looked at Shen Xiaoxiao’s confused look. He smiled and said to the mirror, “If you weren’t pregnant, tonight would have been dangerous. I would have really brought you there. But now, you can only wait at home for everything to settle down.”
“As for why your husband is qualified to attend the National Banquet, have you forgotten? I’m Chinese, and my a.s.sets are unparalleled in China. Tonight’s National Banquet has invited ten famous Chinese businessmen. Your husband is one of them.”
Hearing this answer, Shen Xiaoxiao didn’t know what to say. She had really forgotten Yan Kuan’s ident.i.ty. Yes, he was also Chinese.
“But tonight is very dangerous. Are you going alone?”
Yan Kuan felt that the way Shen Xiaoxiao cared about him was getting cuter and cuter. He immediately said, “Do you think the Ouyang family can really control the sky in China? That person has already made arrangements. Moreover, with your husband’s skills, those clowns are nothing to be afraid of. Don’t worry, nothing will happen.”
Shen Xiaoxiao was a little unhappy. She didn’t want Yan Kuan to go. She had a feeling that something was going to happen. Tonight was too important. Whether it was for the Ouyang family or for the entire China, at this moment, it was fortunate that the entire country was under martial law. All the schools and enterprises were on holiday to watch the 100th anniversary celebration. Hopefully, hopefully, she was overthinking.
“Wait at home obediently today. Nothing will happen. I promise. Look, I’m wearing a bulletproof vest inside. Are you relieved now?”
On such a hot day, Shen Xiaoxiao insisted on Yan Kuan wearing this s.h.i.+rt. Yan Kuan knew that Shen Xiaoxiao was worried, so he allowed her to force him to wear it. Now, she could rest a.s.sured, right?
Shen Xiaoxiao recalled what Yan Kuan had told her before. Fortunately, he had made sufficient preparations before, so he could avoid those troubles when he was in the dark room. Therefore, Shen Xiaoxiao now felt that if Yan Kuan were to go out and do anything dangerous, it would be better to make sufficient preparations. He would bring everything that he could bring along in case something happened again.
“Go on, go on, go on. Just looking at you annoys me.”
Shen Xiaoxiao’s expression changed as she spoke. Yan Kuan knew that this was her little temper, so he was not angry. He sat there and started messing around with her until she was happy. Only then did he slowly walk out of the door.
…
“Is everything arranged? Remember, Yan Kuan must be captured alive.”
“Your subordinate knows.”
The man in black waved his hand, and the death warriors respectfully retreated. The man in the crystal coffin was still sleeping there without moving. He had waited for almost 30 years, and he had waited long enough.
…
Even though she was only watching the live broadcast of the grand occasion of the entire country, Shen Xiaoxiao could still see the nervousness and solemnity in it. The strength of the motherland made Shen Xiaoxiao feel happy. To have such a status and peace… Everyone knew very well how much effort China had put in over the past hundred years.
The Ouyang family’s delusions of reaching the sky in one go were because they had overestimated themselves. Shen Xiaoxiao actually knew that the Ouyang family would definitely lose tonight, but the unease in her heart had not stopped since Yan Kuan left. This unease was even more intense than when Yan Kuan had gone missing. There wouldn’t be anything wrong tonight, right?
Peng…
Peng…
“Miss, something happened.. The villa is surrounded.”
