Shen Xiaoxiao did not want to talk to Yan Kuan or Huo Gui. This Huo Gui was really too stupid. He had told Yan Kuan what the real Obsidian Star was so quickly. This was not fun at all.
She did not want to talk, and she was too lazy to talk to them about this. Long Xi could see that she was unwilling to talk to them. He hugged her even tighter and said to the few people in the distance:
“Since you know that it’s the Obsidian Star, then I guess you guys know more about the characteristics of the Obsidian Star, right? Do you think I can take it off? Why don’t you try it yourself?”
These words were said by Long Xi, but whether it was Feng Hao or Huo Gui, they all felt that Shen Xiaoxiao had gone too far. She had actually revealed the secret of the Dark Empire, and they did not doubt at all that what Shen Xiaoxiao had said in the past was actually true.
It was just that they trusted Yan Kuan too much. Yan Kuan had told them everything that they had experienced when they were young, and they could not find an excuse to doubt him even if they wanted to, so… They unconditionally believed that this weak man was their boss, and were unwilling to believe every word of Shen Xiaoxiao’s story. They even felt that women were indeed unreliable.
Feng Hao and Huo Gui knew the characteristics of the Obsidian Star, and Shen Xiaoxiao also knew about Long Xi. However, the fake Yan Kuan did not know. He just stood there and looked at Shen Xiaoxiao and Long Xi with a gloomy expression, his mind kept thinking about what they were saying. Could it be that the Obsidian Star could not be taken down just like that?
However, as a pig teammate, Huo Gui once again opened his mouth to answer for Yan Kuan:
“Shen Xiaoxiao, you must have planned this well. You knew that Boss wouldn’t kill you, so you acted so brazenly. Hmph, as long as Boss takes off the Obsidian Star, you won’t be able to keep the ring in your hand even if you want to. When that time comes, you won’t be able to decide for yourself.”
So that’s how it was. It turned out that another star had to be taken off before this one could be taken off. This Obsidian Star was indeed special.
“Then let your boss take it down. If he takes it down, I’ll naturally let go. Do you think I want to wear it?”
Shen Xiaoxiao opened her mouth and looked at Yan Kuan provocatively. Yan Kuan was scared by her gaze, but he still did not immediately take off the ring in his hand as Feng Hao and Huo Gui had expected. Instead, he turned to Long Xi and said:
“Long Xi, you’ve touched my woman. You’re making my Dark Empire your enemy.”
“Didn’t you see it? It doesn’t matter if I’m your enemy. Who knows, I might even become the new master of the Dark Empire.”
“What big words. Then, I’ll wait and see. Let’s go.”
Yan Kuan turned around and left. Although Feng Hao and Huo Gui were unwilling, they could not stay any longer. After all, their boss had turned around and left. However, wasn’t their boss too cowardly? He had actually let the couple off so easily?
When had Yan Kuan become so weak? He had been bullied to the point where they were riding on the top of his head?
“Alright, Boss is injured. Wouldn’t it be even worse if he fought with Long Xi rashly?”
“Hmph, I really can’t accept this.”
…
“It’s really difficult to paint a picture with a tiger’s skin. I’ve only learned some bad tempers, but the rest don’t look like it at all. How did those two Hall Masters of yours have eyes? They’re so out of line.”
“It’s better if they can’t recognize me. Only if they can’t recognize me can you deal with more people.”
“What about Little Treasure? I’ll take him away. I won’t be at ease leaving him with you. After all, you don’t appear 24 hours a day. You can’t remember anything after a night’s sleep and you’ve turned into a Long Xi. I don’t dare to gamble.”
“Fool, I’ll inform Dark 1 to put medicine in Long Xi’s food. From today onwards, I’ll try to keep him in a sleeping state. Even if it doesn’t work, it’ll reduce the time for him to wake up.”
“This won’t hurt you?”
“Don’t worry, this is nothing.”
“As you wish. But you must protect the child well. You also said that this is your only son. I’ll trust you one more time.”
Shen Xiaoxiao sat up from Yan Kuan’s embrace and picked up the snacks on the table to eat in small bites. Yan Kuan watched her like this and reached out his hand to stroke the top of her head. This obedient appearance… She looked like a docile little wild cat.
“This gun is specially customized. Keep it close to your body. It has a total of three bullets. The advantage is that it’s small and exquisite. No equipment can detect it. So you have to carry it with you. You can’t take it off no matter what the occasion is.”
Shen Xiaoxiao looked at the white ivory pistol that Yan Kuan handed over. She did not hesitate to take it and put it on the bandage on her leg. There was no knife at all. It seemed that Shen Xiaoxiao’s sense of danger was very strong.
“I’ll send you back. I still have to go to do something. They really think that I’m easy to bully.”
Yan Kuan was about to get up when Shen Xiaoxiao patted the crumbs in her hands. Then, she sat on the sofa and looked at Yan Kuan leisurely. She did not feel that there was any problem at all and said, “Why did you stop? You were interrupted just now. I thought you were going to continue.”
Yan Kuan felt his head burning. This little vixen was always able to seduce him so easily.
Since the lady had invited him, of course, he would not let go of such an opportunity. However, this was not a good place after all. He picked her up and walked straight to the room upstairs.
Another night of lingering love. Shen Xiaoxiao loved this kind of craziness very much. Now, she treasured every second she spent with Yan Kuan because she did not know which day she would fall asleep and never wake up again. Perhaps the day would come when Long Xi had not recovered Yan Kuan’s memories. If that was the case, how much time would she miss with Yan Kuan? She did not want to do that.
In the past, she could still pretend that she wanted to teach Yan Kuan a lesson, to make him feel guilty about how sad she had been when she had taken care of the children alone. However, in the face of these life-and-death departures, when there was not much time left in her life… The only choice she had was to try her best to seize the time in front of her.
“Do you want to go with me?”
Seeing Yan Kuan get up and put on his clothes, Shen Xiaoxiao was already dressed neatly by him. She looked at him without blinking. Yan Kuan kept feeling that after experiencing these things, Shen Xiaoxiao seemed to be getting more and more attached to him. This was a pleasant surprise.
“If you miss me in the future, don’t be so polite and just knock me out. If possible, I want Xiaoxiao to be merciful. Come a few more times. It’s good for mother and son to be together.”
“Hit you a few more times? I’m afraid you’ll never be able to come back.”
“How can that be? I already have some clues about the antidote. It won’t be long. Moreover, we were stimulated in the jungle last time, so it’s already a breakthrough for us to be able to break through and appear after we fainted. So, I believe that I’ll be fine very soon.”
“What if the current situation is maintained?”
“It won’t. I promise you.”
Shen Xiaoxiao looked at Yan Kuan’s appearance and didn’t say anything in the end. Perhaps she could really think about cooperating with the real Long Xi and open the fund. If there really was a medicine that could cure all kinds of poisons, it might not just be Long Xi… even she could be saved.. She could think like that, right?
