Chapter 1230: Attending the Banquet
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
After Huang Yueyan and Lou Yin found out about Ye Xie’s actions, they looked at him in a different light. They had seen all kinds of people, and it wasn’t like they had never seen someone who was vicious and scheming. There were some mercenaries abroad who deliberately used children as killing tools.
However, Ye Xie’s methods were impressive, his mind was clear, and he didn’t even care about his own mother when it came to calculations. This was the first time they had seen someone like him.
Xiaoxiao and Yan Kuan wanted to raise such a kid to be a match for Little Treasure. If it wasn’t for the Dark Empire backing them up, both Lou Yin and Huang Yueyan would have thought that it was best to get rid of such a kid as soon as possible.
“You guys are really bold. This is a classic case of scamming your son. I suddenly realized that my heart is really a little soft toward my two devilish children.”
Huang Yueyan could not help but mutter a few words. Lou Yin also felt the same way. However, Little Treasure was different from them in the end. If they wanted to continue developing the Dark Empire, they could not do it without some ability. Moreover, it was not that easy to find a suitable opponent.
“I will keep Black Peony alive. Without her, wouldn’t this Ye Xie be too satisfied? Being too arrogant and conceited, thinking that he is amazing, is not a good thing.”
“Exactly, exactly. But the daughter of Black Peony seems to want to cause trouble too. I heard my men say that the little girl has prepared several videos to play later.”
“Yes, her name is Anna, right? If we can try our best to keep her alive, that girl is not bad. She just doesn’t like Black Peony.”
“Of course, I’m still a little impressed by that little girl. She’s really not on the same side as her mother.”
“However, what I’m most curious about right now is whether or not De Cruz will be embarrassed when he sees us later. Do you think we’ll have another tough fight with De Cruz tonight?”
“As long as De Cruz still has a brain, he won’t dare to cause trouble in the capital. Under the Imperial City, no matter how powerful he is, as long as he dares to cause trouble in China, he’ll only be beaten into a sieve.”
What Huang Yueyan said made sense. It was indeed so. Wasn’t causing trouble in the capital the same as being directly killed by others?
The three women stood to the side and chatted. Ye Xie only drank a cup with Shen Xiaoxiao before turning around and leaving. He looked too young, and he was drinking a drink. It didn’t match his actual age to begin with. Therefore, at this moment, many families sent their own children to negotiate with him.
Although Ye Xie did not want to talk to these kids, he had no choice. Who asked him to look so young?
Moreover, Ye Xie did not want to alert his father and make his good father think that he had other ideas. After all, in the eyes of De Cruz, Ye Xie was just an ignorant child who did not know anything. The most important thing was that he was timid. He was clearly 13 years old, but he still looked like an eight or nine-year-old kid like his age had frozen.
De Cruz only had one child, Ye Xie. Although he had many women, he was the only child. Even if he was dissatisfied, he knew that the future of Fire Island would be handed over to his son. However, De Cruz was a little different. At least, when he was unwilling, he did not want to see his son grow up to be more powerful than him.
This was a challenge for him. In their base on Fire Island, he was an existence like a king. Which king would want to see themselves grow old?
Would want to see his royal power being challenged?
Ye Xie was very clear on this point about De Cruz, so he was also good at pretending.
However, all of this was broken when Black Peony arrived. That woman’s gaze was too vicious. He had pretended for so many years without revealing a single flaw, but this woman had seen through it. Not only that… This woman was even planning to use her tricks to get rid of him.
He had heard of the name of Black Peony before, unlike his father, who only knew that this woman had astonishing wealth behind her and was good in bed. He thought that he could suppress this woman, but he had underestimated Black Peony… Based on the information he received, Black Peony had gathered a few of the core members of Fire Island under her skirt.
And tonight, everyone was planning. He believed that Black Peony might have a backup plan, but there was only one, and that was that De Cruz definitely wouldn’t survive tonight.
This was enough.
Although De Cruz was able to invite these Chinese rich businessmen, they were only rich businessmen. Because De Cruz was a European, just this alone made it impossible for him to have any connections with the Chinese government. People would avoid suspicion.
Black Peony was as well-maintained as ever. The long skirt from before was wrinkled by De Cruz, but she seemed to have expected it. When she came out, she changed into a short skirt that covered her buttocks. Her buttocks split open and went straight to her belly button. It was so s*xy that it made all the women frown. Was this any different from not wearing it?
Other than covering her buttocks and crotch, the rest of her fair and smooth skin was really quite alluring.
“Is she wearing glitter powder? Look at those men’s eyes almost falling on her pair of white rabbits. D*mn, is there a need to dress so seductively?”
“I remember that she’s in her forties. She really dares to wear it, but she’s really well maintained.”
Huang Yueyan was both praising and criticizing Black Peony. Listening to it, Shen Xiaoxiao didn’t know what to say. However, she had to admit that Black Peony’s outfit was really attractive. It showed off all of her strengths.
“There are many men, and they nourished her well. Of course, she also takes good care of herself. Yueyan, you can’t be envious of this,” Lou Yin teased. However, her words also made the ladies beside her laugh. Although they weren’t very familiar with each other, when women encountered gossip, they would definitely instantly become one.
“That’s right. That’s a black peony. In our country, that’s a typical death sentence for a husband. A widow’s life. Only foreign men aren’t afraid. Those old men in our family are just enjoying the view. If you ask them to really have anything to do with this Black Peony, they might not dare to!”
The words of the lady beside them resonated with everyone. Some of the ladies began to nod their heads repeatedly. That’s right. This woman was very vicious. Whoever married her would be unlucky. Not only would they be the unlucky ones… If she was not happy, their descendants would not be able to keep their lives!
However, they were talking about a lively scene. They did not expect Black Peony to slowly walk toward them.
Everyone was silent for a moment. However, they could also tell that she was heading toward Madam Yan and the others.
As expected, they knew that there would be a good show tonight.
“Madam Yan, long time no see!” Black Peony walked over with a glass of wine and spoke to Shen Xiaoxiao with a smile on her face. She couldn’t tell that she had just been taught a lesson by Shen Xiaoxiao a few days ago. This woman was good at pretending… But she knew how to pretend, and Shen Xiaoxiao wasn’t bad either.
“Long time? Didn’t we just see each other a few days ago? Black Peony, your teeth have been installed so quickly? You’re old. You need to pay attention to your dentures. It’s only been a few days. Can you make the teeth well? I know a dentist. If you need, Black Peony, I’m happy to introduce them to you!”
“You–”
