Chapter 709 - The Last Night of the Marriage Alliance

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Big Brother, are you listening to Fourth Brother’s gossip? What a big mouth. I just have some business dealings with President Shen. I’m not familiar with her.”

Jiang Haoran didn’t expect Jiang Haoting to suddenly change his mind and actually wanted to set him up with Shen Xiaoxiao. What was going on? What was Jiang Haoting thinking again?

“Haoran, you’ve been single for many years, but you haven’t found someone. Now that you’ve found your son, it’s rare for you to find a woman you like. Although Shen Xiaoxiao was married and has two children, after all, she’s already signed a divorce with Yan Kuan. Moreover, both of her children are well-educated, and they have a pure character. They also get along well with our family. If it’s really her, Mother and I can rest assured.”

“Big Brother, you’re thinking too much. President Shen and I are just friends.”

“Alright Haoran, just because you’re innocent now doesn’t mean you’ll be innocent in the future. I think you don’t like the girls your sister-in-law picked for you either. It’s not bad if you have a woman you can talk to and be yourself with. At our position, it’s not enough to just rely on s*x a lot of the time. Do you understand what I mean?”

Jiang Haoran was stunned when he heard Jiang Haoran’s heartfelt persuasion. Was he trying to make a marriage alliance with Shen Xiaoxiao?

A marriage alliance with Shen Xiaoxiao?

“Big Brother, what are you thinking?”

“Shen Xiaoxiao’s background isn’t simple, and she’s extremely wealthy. Being with her can also prevent others from saying that she covets our Jiang family’s property. I think it’s a good choice. Haoran, you should think about it carefully. Alright, that’s all I have to say. Go and meet Mother. I’ve already discussed this with Mother, and she has also agreed.”

Jiang Haoran looked at this powerful elder brother. He even wanted to interfere in his own marriage. He even brought up their mother. Did he think that he would be afraid if he brought up their mother?

He really could not have any different thoughts about Jiang Haoting. His elder brother had changed long ago. After he reached a high position, he really became a loner.

Jiang Haoran did not go to his mother’s place. He knew what kind of lecture it would be like if he went.

He was already in his forties, and he still couldn’t make his own marriage? Then what about his son and daughter in the future?

Would they all be used by the Jiang family to form a marriage alliance or consolidate their power?

The Jiang family was really in such a mess that it was extremely disgusting.

...

“Uncle, is Daddy calling out again? Why do you have to trap him?”

Little Treasure heard the angry roar from the room in the distance. He asked 19 with some fear. 19 looked over there and comforted Little Treasure:

“Your father is sick and is undergoing treatment. It’s something like an injection, but it’s very painful, so he can’t help but scream a few times. He’ll be fine in a few days. Don’t worry, didn’t you say that you’re going to build a snowman with the children in the village? Let your Second Uncle take you there.”

“Mommy has been taking care of Daddy. Isn’t Mommy not feeling well too? Can I go and see Daddy?”

“No, I can’t go yet because you’re too young to be infected. There’s still one more day. One more day and your daddy will be fine. Then you can go and see him.”

Little Treasure was obviously a little disappointed. They had just recognized Daddy, but unfortunately, Daddy fell sick. They hadn’t seen him for the past few days, and Mommy had gone to take care of Daddy. He and Da Bao were so bored.

Although he could play with the children in the village, he wanted to be with his parents. They had never played together before.

19 prepared medicine for Shen Xiaoxiao. Dark 1 went out to do some work, while Dark 2 stayed at the other end of the courtyard to play the so-called make-up game with Da Bao.

Well, in fact, Dark 2 really didn’t like this make-up game, but Da Bao’s interest was too great, scaring Little Treasure away. He could only take over.

He glanced at Little Treasure, who was practicing shooting in the middle of the courtyard, and nodded slightly. This child was very hardworking. With such a successor for their boss and the others, the Dark Empire was not afraid of having no successors.

A day passed just like that. Shen Xiaoxiao lay tiredly on the soft couch. She had been staying in the room for the past few days. Sometimes, when she heard Long Xi’s clamor, she would turn on the music and ignore it. However, the strange thing was... Ever since Yan Kuan appeared on the first day, he really had not appeared. When Long Xi did not make a fuss, he would quietly sleep.

This feeling made Shen Xiaoxiao even more uncertain. Would Yan Kuan win or not? Long Xi would appear at any time, but Yan Kuan had not appeared once. Would she really be able to only trap a shell in the end?

After tonight, everything was set in stone. Shen Xiaoxiao could not do anything as she did not know if Yan Kuan would win or if Long Xi would win in the end.

No one dared to sleep deeply that night. The last red liquid was injected into Yan Kuan’s body, and he fell into a deep sleep.

Shen Xiaoxiao glanced at him and did not have any reaction. She also laid down on the soft couch.

“Miss, I think I should stay here tonight.”

“Stop being so wishy-washy. Hurry up and leave. I’ll stay here and watch. I’ve endured the past four days. There’s only one more night left.”

“But tonight is also the most crucial night. I’m worried that something might happen.”

“Aren’t you here? You’re not afraid that something might happen. If it really doesn’t work out, you can give me a hard time.”

“This... Alright, I’ll get 19 to watch over the two children. Dark 2 and I will be here tonight.”

“Alright, alright.”

...

He slept until midnight, and there was another wave of roars and angry shouts.

Little Treasure woke up from his sleep and looked at the pitch-black room. Da Bao was sleeping soundly on the small bed next to him.

Little Treasure slipped out of the bed in his little tiger pajamas. He dragged his little slippers and opened the door to walk out.

19 had just gone to the toilet and missed Little Treasure’s escape.

Little Treasure walked out of the other room with his short legs. It was snowing heavily tonight, and it was a vast expanse of white.

Red lanterns hung on the four corners of the old house. Accompanied by Yan Kuan’s roars, made the hundred-year-old mansion look strange and terrifying.

Little Treasure was so frightened by the screams that he shrank his neck and ran even faster to the side room.

As expected, it was the last night in the side room. It was crazier than ever. Long Xi was crazy and restless.

He kept twisting and struggling.

One of the bracelets that were fixed on the wall had already been broken off by him. The hand with the iron chain was dancing in the air. No one dared to go forward. He destroyed everything in the room at will.

Fortunately, there was only a bed and a soft mattress left.

Dark 1, Dark 2, Shen Xiaoxiao stood at the corner of the wall and watched Yan Kuan’s every move vigilantly. She stared at his crazy and excited actions.

None of them had expected that he would be able to get rid of the bracelets that were fixed to the concrete wall. They did not know how much strength he had used to do all of this.

“Let me tell you, I’m about to win. I’m about to win. When the time comes, I’ll kill all of you. All of you. Hahaha, hahaha.”

Little Treasure, who had just reached the door, was stunned by the crazy laughter of Long Xi. He gently pushed the door open, and just as he walked in, he felt himself suddenly lift up into the air. There was a thick iron chain tied to his waist...
