Chapter 186: Open Your Mouth and Borrow the Key
Yan Kuan listened to Old Man Yao’s report, but his eyebrows never relaxed. He kept talking about Black Ganoderma, which made him very annoyed.
“Didn’t you say that she woke up once? She looks no different from before!”
“Kid, don’t talk nonsense. You can’t watch the monitor if they’re awake or not. My Nine Revolutions Divine Needle is not just for show.”
“I’m not doubting you. Do you have to be so agitated? You’re already so old and you should take good care of yourself. Be careful of your blood vessels.”
“You little brat, tell me again?”
Yan Kuan looked at Old Man Yao and Yun Qi’s fighting spirit and felt that Yun Qi was right. If he was so agitated, wouldn’t it be easy for his blood vessels to explode?
However, he also copied a portion of the video and looked at the person lying there like a living dead person. He didn’t pay attention to the matters here and got up to leave.
He had been gone for three days. It was time to go back. Did the little girl Miss Him? And that blood lingzhi. Sigh, let’s give it a try!
…
“Where’s Miss?”
When Yan Kuan returned, he did not feel a warm welcome from anyone. He felt a little uncomfortable. This girl, he had been gone for three days and still did not know that she missed him.
“Miss is in the bedroom. The lights in the study were on until daybreak last night. During the day, Miss attended the Shen Enterprise’s shareholders’ meeting and just returned.”
“It was on all night? She didn’t sleep all night?”
“Yes. During that time, she asked for ginseng tea twice. She left the study at 7 am and left for the company at 8 am. Yu Lang went with her.”
“Okay, I got it. You can leave now!”
Yan Kuan felt uncomfortable in his heart. This wretched girl only just regained a good body condition, and she had already started acting out. There was really no tiger or monkey in the mountain that could rule the world.
When he entered the door, the sound of brushing could be heard from the bathroom. Yan Kuan loosened his collar and casually threw his clothes on the ground. He opened the door and walked straight in.
He wanted to see if Shen Xiaoxiao would give him a chance.
When he entered, Shen Xiaoxiao had already put on her clothes. As for the sound of the water? Well, she had given him water. It seemed that she knew he was back as soon as he opened the door.
“You’re fast enough? Are you avoiding me?”
Yan Kuan reached out his hand and wanted to hug her, but Shen Xiaoxiao avoided him with disdain. She said to Yan Kuan with some sarcasm, “How would I dare to hide from the Black Emperor? You always come and go as you please. We are just casually summoned by you. Get out of the way. It stinks.”
Shen Xiaoxiao did not know about her little appearance. Her sour appetite was simply too much for Yan Kuan’s appetite.
Hearing her jealous words, he smiled and grabbed her. “Stinky? Come, come, let me smell your fragrance and see how fragrant it is.”
“I haven’t taken a shower for three days of training. How can I not curse?”
Three days of training? This was an explanation?
Shen Xiaoxiao did not struggle anymore. After being together for so long, this was the first time Yan Kuan had explained to her. However, thinking about it, it made sense. He was the Black Emperor. If he did not maintain his strong skills, he would not be able to convince the public. This person’s skills were not something that he was born with.
Thinking of this, she did not continue to make trouble for him. Instead, she helped him take off his clothes. There were some dark purple spots that she had not noticed before. Every time she went to bed, she would fall asleep exhausted. When she woke up, this person would go to training.
She thought that he relied on this training every morning. It seemed that he went out for training at the beginning of every month.
“Go take a shower. I’ll get some medicinal oil for you to rub.”
Yan Kuan looked at this rare woman-like little fellow and smiled. It was so easy to coax her. If he wanted her key that she had just gotten back, would she give it to him?
After taking a shower, Shen Xiaoxiao indeed prepared some medicinal oil and a cup of milk. In these aspects, she was actually quite meticulous. Moreover, Yan Kuan sometimes felt that this girl did not look like she was only 18 years old no matter how he looked at her.
“You don’t need to apply any medicine. I just need to rest for a night.”
“I didn’t ask you to move. Once you’ve applied it, you can go and rest. There’s still milk. Drink it!”
“Can I drink something that belongs to such a girl? Why don’t you feed it to me?”
If Yan Kuan were to act helpless, Shen Xiaoxiao would sometimes be unable to withstand it. However, she was not used to his temper and ignored him. She took some medicine and rubbed it on her palm. When it was warm, she applied it on his shoulder blade.
Yan Kuan wanted to continue to achieve his goal, but at this moment, there was a knock on the door.
Yan Kuan frowned. He glanced at Shen Xiaoxiao, who was neatly dressed and had her nightdress covered tightly. Then, he walked over to open the door wearing only a pair of shorts.
Shen Xiaoxiao was already used to this double standard. However, she felt that it was not easy for Yan Kuan to look for her as soon as she returned.
She tidied up while paying attention to the actions at the door. When she heard the word ‘key’, Shen Xiaoxiao’s heart skipped a beat. Key? Could it be the one she was thinking of?
She took the medicinal oil and walked to the side of the cabinet as if nothing had happened. This place seemed to be very far from the door. However, due to the favorable wind and Shen Xiaoxiao’s amazing hearing, she could still hear their words clearly.
“Master, Old Yao said that Madam woke up again, but it doesn’t look good. She urgently needs the key to the Black Ganoderma mushroom. Please make sure…”
“Okay, I got it. Go down.”
Shen Xiaoxiao’s heart was shaking. It was indeed for the Black Ganoderma. Yan Kuan wanted the Black Ganoderma to save people. Who did he want to save? Madam? Who was Madam? Yan Kuan’s wife?
She seemed to have never asked Yan Kuan if he was married or if he had a wife?
There was also the Black Ganoderma. It was the most precious treasure of her Shen family. Initially, she regretted giving it to Yan Kuan. She even wanted to ask him for it a few times, but he refused to return it to her.
She had also thought that without the key to cut the Black Ganoderma, it would be dead. No one dared to touch it, so it was temporarily safe.
But now, if Yan Kuan wanted to use the Black Ganoderma to save that whatever Madam, he would definitely ask her for the key. This Black Ganoderma was the other half of the key, so Yan Kuan definitely did not know. It was because he did not know that he thought it was an ordinary medicinal herb.
But Shen Xiaoxiao knew. How could she let the most precious treasure of the Shen family be destroyed just like that? Or was it destroyed for a woman that she did not know about? She would never agree to it.
She did not care which woman belonged to Yan Kuan, whether it was a wife or someone else. In any case, it was impossible to snatch it from her hands. If Yan Kuan really asked her for the key for that so-called Madam, at worst, she would just leave and the two of them would say their goodbyes.
She would never abandon her Shen family for a man again.
Never!
As the door closed, Shen Xiaoxiao did not know that both she and Yan Kuan were a little nervous at the moment because one was afraid of hearing the other’s rejection.
Yan Kuan looked at the woman who was standing there staring at him motionlessly and sighed heavily. The biggest weakness of this little thing was that she was too smart.
Since she knew, he really needed to speak up, but he was extremely unwilling because compared to that woman, he realized that this little thing was more important to him.
“I want…”
“Impossible, absolutely impossible!”
