Chapter 78: Engagement, Half a Key

Chapter 78: Engagement, Half a Key

“President Yan, are you reluctant to part with her? Or are you feeling sorry for her?”

“Little thing, do you think I’m feeling sorry for her? Or am I reluctant to part with her? But before I’m reluctant to part with someone else, I’d better feel sorry for our little thing first. Look, this vinegar jar is about to fall over. It’s really full of sour taste!”

Yan Kuan teased Shen Xiaoxiao. At this moment, Shen Xiaoxiao’s appearance really made him feel very interested. This stubborn little fellow probably didn’t even realize how much she cared about it.

“Hmph, who’s jealous? You are. Your entire family is.”

After saying that, she turned her head and looked to the side. She was too lazy to continue this topic with this man. She had never been a match for him. It was better for her to obediently stand to the side.

However, when she turned her head, she saw a few familiar people. They were members of the Liu family. She hated the Liu family the most.

Her aura was instantly released, and all the uncontrollable anger and hatred seemed to be about to burst out.

Yan Kuan looked at this person who had suddenly become very cold and stern, and his heart paused. He raised his head, and a trace of an ‘as expected’ expression flashed across his eyes. Without saying anything, he pulled her back and hugged her tightly with his arms. He patted her back in a comforting manner and slowly said those bewitching words:

“Relax, relax. Sooner or later, you will deal with them one by one. Sooner or later, they will receive the punishment they deserve. Sooner or later, you will get back everything you lost…”

She slowly regained his senses and glanced at Yan Kuan. The hatred in her eyes slowly subsided as she said calmly, “Yes, sooner or later, I will take back everything that should have belonged to me.”

Shen Xiaoxiao did not expect that her simple words would confirm Yan Kuan’s guess. So, that was the case!

“That Eldest Young Master of the Pei family looks like a noble Young Master that little girls like you like.”

Yan Kuan’s sudden words really scared Shen Xiaoxiao. Was he sick? He actually thought that Pei Li’s face could attract a girl like her? Could it be that her actual age was almost 40? Would she like that b*stard, Pei Li? That b*stard?

“I thought that you had always had a unique taste? That pretty boy’s face is always bluffing and lying, staring at the title of playboy. He’s like a burning peacock. If his feathers are burnt, he’ll only be left with a pile of white chickens.”

Yan Kuan was stunned. These words were really mean, but he liked it. He glanced at Shen Xiaoxiao and lowered his head without saying a word. He was engaged, right? Hmph, such a weakling dared to covet his woman. He was courting death!

Seeing that this girl had gone to great lengths to hide her identity, but it was also quite to his liking, and now that she had a good eye, he decided to help her. In any case, he really didn’t want to see this little thing bear another label on her head.

“En, indeed, killing a chicken for nothing is more suitable for him.”

“However, I heard that he has an engagement with the missing Miss of the Shen family. Now that Miss Liu is so anxious to throw herself into the embrace of her future brother-in-law. This show is really messy.”

“Engagement?”

Shen Xiaoxiao turned her head to glance at Yan Kuan. Why did she feel that Yan Kuan’s words today always had a hidden meaning?

Yan Kuan raised his brows. Could it be that this little thing had forgotten that she still had this thing on her? Or was it that she didn’t know at all?

“Although the engagement has been going on for many years, some families still know about it. Now that the Miss of the Shen family has gone missing, isn’t it fine for this little sister to replace her sister’s engagement? Moreover, for a shameless family like the Liu family, they won’t feel the least bit embarrassed about such a shameful matter.”

Yan Kuan smiled, lowered his head, and deliberately continued to whisper into Shen Xiaoxiao’s ear:

“I heard that the engagement was made by the Shen family’s old master and the Pei family’s old man, Pei Dongguo. The Shen family still has the Pei family’s family heirloom jade pendant as a keepsake, and Pei Dongguo also has half of the Shen family’s Yin-Yang Key. If this eldest daughter of the Shen family really can’t come back, these things will all belong to the Liu family.”

“Other than that, I heard that the half Yin-Yang Key is related to the life-saving fund secretly passed down by the Shen family. Sigh, I pity the young miss of the Shen family.”

Yan Kuan’s words made Shen Xiaoxiao’s heart skip a beat. The reason she wanted to break off the engagement was to get back the half Yin-Yang Key of the Shen family.

In her previous life, because of her, the Pei family wanted to break off the engagement, and both parties returned the keepsake. If Third Uncle had not stood up for her in front of all the big families, the half key would not have fallen into her hands. It would only have fallen into Gu Yuehua’s hands.

At that time, it was because of Third Uncle’s appearance that Gu Yuehua and the Pei family’s plan was broken. They originally thought that even if the engagement was broken off, that half key would not fall into Shen Xiaoxiao’s hands. Gu Yuehua had also said that… When the time came, the other half key would be added as the dowry for Liu Yufei to marry into the Pei family.

Otherwise, how could the Pei family agree to such a shameful thing as a change of course and a sister replacing her sister’s marriage?

However, their plan was well planned, but it was exposed by Third Uncle when he broke off the engagement. The Pei family was afraid of being laughed at and temporarily handed over half of the key to Shen Xiaoxiao.

However, they had always thought that Shen Xiaoxiao was so stupid that the key would fall into Gu Yuehua’s hands sooner or later, and thus fall into their hands.

They did not expect that the accident that they had caused to Third Uncle would let Shen Xiaoxiao see their true colors. That half of the key had been hidden in Shen Xiaoxiao’s throat, never to be taken out again.

As for the other half, Third Uncle had said before he died that if it was really necessary to take it out of her father’s grave. He would dig it up and take it out.

However, because it was too unfilial, it made Shen Xiaoxiao accept it as useless. In addition to the situation at the time, even if she had the money, she would not be able to make it back.

That was why Shen Xiaoxiao never really took out the half key.

However, Shen Xiaoxiao knew that Gu Yuehua knew clearly where the half key went. That was why she risked her life to protect the half key from them after she was locked in the dark room.

Now that she heard Yan Kuan mention the whereabouts of the half key, Shen Xiaoxiao also knew that the engagement had to be annulled and the key had to be obtained.

However, Yan Kuan actually knew about this. As expected, this man always had a skill that no one dared to underestimate.

“Little thing, do you think that if this Lady Shen returns, will she fulfill the engagement and marry into the Pei family, or will she break off the engagement and retrieve the key?”

“How would I know that? But perhaps this Lady Shen’s brain is damaged. When she returns and sees the Pei family’s Eldest Young Master slaughtering chickens for free, will she fall in love with him? Is it even possible to know if she is willing to risk her life to marry him?”

“There are many women in this world who don’t turn back until they hit a wall. They don’t know what they want until they personally experience it and suffer.”

These self-mocking words made Yan Kuan look sideways. Could his guess be wrong? But if his guess was correct, would anyone say such things about themselves and mock themselves?

It made him a little confused. Moreover, the self-mocking words were so strong, as if she knew something beforehand. What else was in this little thing’s head? Why did it make him more and more confused?

“Little thing, you seem to know the eldest daughter of the Shen family very well. Do you know her?”
