Chapter 548: The Deal Between the Two of Them

When Shen Xiaoxiao arrived in her car, Long Xi was leaning on the side of the road. In the recent rainy season, there had been sporadic drizzles all the time. She drove past from behind. Long Xi’s back was facing her, and that figure seemed to be getting thinner and thinner. There was also a reason why she had not combined Long Xi and Yan Kuan together in the first place.

That man’s shoulders and back had always been her most powerful backer, but one day, it had suddenly disappeared or changed. She had not adapted to it for a long time.

The drizzle fell on his shoulders, and his buzz cut had long been stained with moisture. Shen Xiaoxiao parked the car at least a hundred meters away from him. With her eyesight, she could see his back completely. She could even see many small expressions.

She sighed slightly. In fact, she could have just told Long Xi his identity without doing so, but she really did not want to do that.

No matter what the reason was, Yan Kuan had lost his memory, and he must have gone through some kind of ordeal in the middle. Grandma Lin had been hiding in the dark, and Yan Kuan had appeared in front of them in a different identity and even fought with them. Even if they recognized each other, the result would not be as perfect as Shen Xiaoxiao had expected. It would be better to be like this now. They were in the dark, while Yan Kuan was in the light.

Shen Xiaoxiao could not be soft-hearted in order to protect the family business and the children. No matter who she was dealing with, she could not be soft-hearted.

Long Xi took out his phone a few times and put it down again. He repeated this action a few times. Shen Xiaoxiao did not understand what he was doing, but she still had no intention of getting out of the car. She looked at him from afar, there was nothing wrong with this feeling.

However, perhaps Shen Xiaoxiao’s gaze was too direct, because Long Xi suddenly turned around and looked directly at her.

The murderous intent in his eyes receded after he saw her. He was so sharp. No matter what kind of identity he had, this would not change.

He slowly walked towards her. He seemed to like wearing black clothes. The tight-fitting shirt accentuated his perfect figure. She watched as he approached her step by step. That face that made her feel extremely unfamiliar… At this moment, for some reason, it did not seem to be an eyesore anymore. Her heart was even beating faster as he walked in.

The car door opened and closed. There was a hint of earthy smell and a faint smell of tobacco.

As soon as Long Xi got into the car, he suddenly turned around and hugged Shen Xiaoxiao in his arms. That moment of shock made Shen Xiaoxiao forget to push him away. However, before she could push him away, he automatically let go of his arms. Then, he looked at Shen Xiaoxiao and said innocently:

“It’s a little cold outside. It’s raining, so I’m hugging you to warm you up.”

Shen Xiaoxiao did not know how Long Xi was lying through his teeth. No matter how cold it was on a summer night, it was definitely not cold enough for a martial arts practitioner.

She handed him a tissue very conveniently. Without waiting for Long Xi to say anything, Shen Xiaoxiao drove straight to the bay.

Because of the rain, the beach did not look very peaceful at night. The car stopped near a beach. Long Xi looked at Shen Xiaoxiao, who had suddenly brought him to such a mysterious place, and did not know why… He was actually a little excited.

“Xiaoxiao, are you going on a date with me?”

“Let’s make a deal.”

Shen Xiaoxiao had deliberately brought him to this place and suddenly asked this question, which made Long Xi a little curious. He could not help but ask, “Deal? What deal?”

“You want to take over Poland No. 35’s territory?”

“I do have that intention. Why? Is Xiaoxiao trying to make me give in? This isn’t a simple matter. Of course, if Xiaoxiao is willing to pay a price, it’s not impossible to consider.”

Hearing this, Shen Xiaoxiao changed her strategy. She was interested to know what the price was.

“Why don’t Xiaoxiao and I have a good night? You know, when I’m happy, I might…”

“Really? I didn’t expect this request.”

Shen Xiaoxiao’s reaction made Long Xi feel a little uneasy. He had said this on purpose to test her, but wasn’t Shen Xiaoxiao angry?

“Then what do you think is the request, Xiaoxiao?”

Shen Xiaoxiao glanced at Long Xi, then lowered her head to look at Long Xi’s left hand that was wearing a finger ring. Suddenly, she said, “Why are you wearing a finger ring? What are you hiding?”

Changing the topic again, Long Xi found that Shen Xiaoxiao seemed to be a little different tonight.

Moreover, he naturally thought of the ring in Shen Xiaoxiao’s hand that he had found in the dark earlier. He looked down and saw that she was indeed wearing a motorcycle glove again. What were they hiding, and was this the secret that he thought was about to burst out?

“What about Xiaoxiao? What are you wearing on your hand?”

Shen Xiaoxiao lowered her head and looked at her finger. The rare gentleness in her eyes was a tenderness that Long Xi had never seen before.

“Ring, a ring.”

“It can’t be a wedding ring, right?”

A wedding ring? It didn’t seem like it? But it was a ring that symbolized one’s status.

“Sort of.”

“What’s sort of?”

“Then it is.”

Long Xi was extremely dissatisfied with this answer, but he didn’t show it on his face. He thought for a moment and said, “Xiaoxiao wants to see my hand?”

“If you’re willing.”

“That’s not a problem, but I want to know what Xiaoxiao is planning.”

“I’ll tell you everything after I see it.”

Long Xi did not speak for a long time. Just when Shen Xiaoxiao thought that he would definitely not agree, he suddenly reached out and took off the finger gloves on his hand.

Although she had already confirmed it, the feeling was still extremely complicated when she saw that the Obsidian Star was still securely placed on his hand.

Her eyes had a trace of moisture that was difficult to detect. She wanted to reach out but did not dare to. In the end, she still did not feel her way up. ‘Yan Kuan, Ah, Yan Kuan, what should I do with you?’

“Xiaoxiao seems to be very calm? You’ve already expected this?”

Shen Xiaoxiao looked at Long Xi. She smiled and said, “The last time I cut your hand with a blade, your finger bled. This means that the finger gloves you’re wearing are not artificial limbs. Then there must be some secret. Now, it seems that this ring is your secret.”

“Indeed. To avoid revenge from my enemies, I can only wear it.”

“Okay, now let’s talk about the deal.”

Shen Xiaoxiao’s change was so fast that Long Xi was even more surprised. However, when it came to business, he still wanted to have a good talk with Shen Xiaoxiao.

“I can give you Poland No. 35’s territory, but I want her.”

Long Xi naturally understood what she meant. Shen Xiaoxiao wanted the old woman, and the old woman wanted Shen Xiaoxiao’s two children. What kind of ties did they have?

And Poland No. 35? Shen Xiaoxiao said she would give it to him, not allow him to have it. This sentence was a little subtle.

“Xiaoxiao means that Poland No. 35 is the territory of the Dark Empire? It seems that I don’t know enough. I thought….”
