Chapter 553 - Residual Poison
Chapter 553: Residual Poison
Dark 1 had gone missing, but there was a secret guard by Long Xi’s side. Of course, if he said that he was a secret guard, then he was the person who had been hiding behind him. Other than Long Xi, no one else had seen him before.
“D*mn that Dark 1, I’m so angry.”
19 paced around the room with some resentment. Shen Xiaoxiao looked up at him and shook her head helplessly:
“Dark 1 has his helplessness. He grew up with Yan Kuan since he was young. Their friendship is extraordinary. Also, don’t forget that as a secret guard, he has to be by master’s side at all times. This is also Dark 1 performing his duty. You have to understand.”
“I didn’t say that I didn’t understand. It makes me look like a resentful woman. He can just tell me.”
Shen Xiaoxiao smiled. She looked at 19 in front of her. Wasn’t 19 just like a resentful woman?
“We’ve been avoiding Dark 1 as much as possible recently because we’re afraid that Dark 1 would know that we’ve already found out about the identity of Long Xi. Dark 1 was already suspicious when Long Xi met the children that night. You also know about the fierce battle a few days ago. Dark 1 might have already confirmed the identity of Long Xi. Perhaps he also knows that we’ve found out about the identity of Long Xi. That’s why he left without even saying goodbye.”
“That’s even worse. What does he think we are?”
“You… I’ve told you before that Dark 1 is not loyal to the Dark Empire nor to me. His loyalty has always been to Yan Kuan, only Yan Kuan.”
19 also knew that Dark 1’s choice was understandable. If it were him today, he would have made the same choice as Dark 1 and followed behind Shen Xiaoxiao.
“Why did Long Xi stop his actions against Poland No. 35?”
Why? How would she know the reason? Perhaps he wanted to take a break in the middle?
“Maybe he’s not in a hurry? He’s just resting up. Do you think that he can digest so much territory in just a few months? There will always be times when he can’t do it.”
“Then isn’t it best for us to attack Western District’s 24th Street now? Kill him while he’s sick?”
Since when did 19 become so belligerent? But Shen Xiaoxiao had also thought of this idea.
“Yeah, it’s such a good time to send it to you and me. How can I not use it? Ask Reger to come here.”
After Shen Xiaoxiao gave the order, Reger was brought up naturally. His injuries were almost healed. He was training with the other secret guards in the Dark Empire. Of course, he was the one who was separated. It was just like how he was in the fighting arena back then.
“Little Oriental Loli, your place is really not bad. If it wasn’t for the lack of freedom, I would really like to stay here and not leave.” Reger had already entered the office and ignored her. He found a place to sit down and spoke to Shen Xiaoxiao with a familiar expression.
Shen Xiaoxiao didn’t mind. She had to adapt to the way people behaved and talked to the way they dealt with each other.
“Now I have a chance to give you your freedom, but I don’t know if you dare.”
“Oh? What way? Let me think. I’m going to 24th Street, right?”
“Hahaha, Reger is as smart as ever. Do you want to go?”
“Of course, why not? That woman hurt me so badly. If I don’t teach her a lesson, I’ll feel sorry for myself.” Reger would be furious whenever he talked about his wounds. After all, these wounds were all caused by a woman, and many of the marks would last for a lifetime. As soon as he saw the wounds, he would naturally think of that detestable woman.
“You can’t touch that woman now, but you can go and harass her place. I’ve got news that Han Jia has a few brothels under her command. You can go and play…”
“Ah? Brothels? I can’t believe this woman owns such a place. I didn’t even do this, but she did? Pervert.”
“So, I don’t like it, so I naturally want you to do it.”
“Okay, no problem. Wait for my good news. I can’t touch a man like Long Xi. But those brothels? Watch how I deal with this woman.”
“I have my own arrangements. As long as you manage your men well and don’t have any bad intentions, it’s fine.”
After Shen Xiaoxiao gave her instructions, Reger ran out with an excited face. Shen Xiaoxiao looked at 19 and frowned.
“Prepare the plane. We’ll leave in half an hour. The children are asleep. We’ll arrive when they wake up.”
“Are you afraid that something will happen if we go to D Country at this time?”
“It’s okay. We will go sooner or later. I also want to go to Yueyan’s place. Why is this Ai Wei so weak? It’s been so long, but he still hasn’t taken down the fort.”
“I think it’s better not to go. I have a bad feeling. This trip is full of dangers. Don’t forget that there were assassins who wanted to kill you. Those assassins must have followed us to find you. There must be a mole in the Dark Empire.”.
“It’s safer here. Everything is more important to the children.”
“The two children don’t even dare to go to school now. It’s so aggrieving. I, Shen Xiaoxiao’s children, actually ended up in this world. It’s all because of that idiot, Yan Kuan.”
“Forget it, forget it. I won’t go. Since I’m not going, then I’ll personally take back what belongs to us.”
19 knew that Shen Xiaoxiao was not in a good mood, so he did not say anything more. It was a great achievement to persuade her to stop. It was not bad to provoke her or take revenge. It was actually a good thing to do.
It was also good to distract her attention.
“How’s the plan for Dongyou Country? Did Liu Yufei do anything to you?”
“Her? This woman is indeed not simple. She was originally clueless about the plan, but after one night, she understood it very well. Now, it still sounds like it’s real. If this woman isn’t so disgusting, perhaps she would be really good at doing business.”
Of course, she was good at doing business. Back then, the Shen Enterprise had flourished in Liu Yufei’s hands. Although it had changed its name to the Liu Enterprise, Liu Yufei’s ability could not be ignored.
“If Liu Yufei is really that stupid, she definitely isn’t the person who was chosen to have the Suoyin flower. It’s just that I don’t know who chose Liu Yufei as a chess piece. I even feel that all of this seems to have something to do with that old woman. Am I overthinking everything?”
“Don’t think about it. In any case, it’s not good stuff. Let’s just follow the plan. If Dongyou Country wants to be a higher level, we naturally have to give them such a good platform, right?”
“Yes, yes. I said that I would uproot Dongyou Country. You should be prepared to pull in the net. This time, I’ll do it myself.”
“Alright, I’ll wait for your final decision.”
Shen Xiaoxiao stood up and prepared to return to the study room. However, her head was a little dizzy and she could not recover for a long time.
19 looked at her and asked anxiously, “What’s wrong with you recently? Do you always get dizzy? Call a doctor to take a look?”
“Don’t worry, I’ve already checked. I checked after I was poisoned the last time. There’s no problem. Maybe I’ve been too tired recently.”
“Then you rest well. I’ll go out first.”
19 glanced at Shen Xiaoxiao to make sure that she was alright before walking out. Shen Xiaoxiao looked at 19 as he walked back and pulled the sleeve on her wrist to look at the small mark left by the thumbtack. It was still blue. Was the poison cured or not? When Long Xi was sick, she had seen it with her own eyes. The mark that he had pierced on his finger was already gone.. Why was hers still there, and its color had become more and more bright blue?
