Chapter 126: Trust and Links
Standing in the distance, Bai Aoxue looked at them who snuggled together in front of her and smiled heartily.
She wasn’t indifferent like she used to be. Instead, she was full of wishes and joy.
When Jun Yeyan arrived, he saw Bai Aoxue’s brilliant smile which was like a flash in the pan. He suddenly got flustered, but he still looked at her whom he cherished with infatuation.
Bai Aoxue felt that someone was beside her. When she turned her head, she saw Jun Yeyan whose eyes were burning.
Her cheeks were a little bit rosy. Bai Aoxue looked at Jun Yeyan and said: “You’re here.”
Jun Yeyan nodded and went to Bai Aoxue. He said: “Honey, your husband has finished his task.”
Jun Yeyan’s playful tone made Bai Aoxue’s cheeks much rosier. She looked up at him with some anger and said: “Very good. But there’s no reward.”
The light in Jun Yeyan’s eyes suddenly died out because of Bai Aoxue’s words. He said pitifully: “Honey, why are you so ruthless? It took me a lot of effort to persuade the pig-headed guy.”
After listening to Jun Yeyan’s words, Bai Aoxue twitched the corners of her mouth hard and said: “Pig-headed? The pig-headed guy is my uncle. Honey, do you mean that I am also pig-headed?”
Then she threw Jun Yeyan an angry look.
Jun Yeyan was stunned. He inwardly scolded himself dumb and said majestically: “Who says that my wife is pig-headed? I will find him and kick his ass!”
Bai Aoxue looked at Jun Yeyan, a funny fellow, holding back her smile, said seriously: “Thank you for all that you’ve done.”
Jun Yeyan was puzzled by Bai Aoxue’s sudden serious words, but in his heart, he sincerely didn’t like Bai Aoxue to say “thank you” to him.
“You little fool. To me, you don’t need to say ‘thank you’.” Raising his hand and rubbing Bai Aoxue’s hair, Jun Yeyan said in an indifferent tone, but there was sadness that was hard to find from his words.
“Uncle’s trick is really wonderful. Unintentional, but it’s the highlight. He used both the hard and soft way.” Jun Yeyan said.
After listening to what Jun Yeyan said, Bai Aoxue smiled and didn’t object him.
Luoyan was treated in a soft way. How about her? How many years haven’t she been treated like that?
“Jun Yeyan, will you use a soft way to me too if it were you?” Bai Aoxue tilted her head and looked him who was like a god even if he just stood there casually.
After listening to her words, Jun Yeyan was slightly stunned. He shook his head and said two words with his thin lips: “I won’t.”
Although he did not look at Bai Aoxue, Bai Aoxue knew the firmness in his eyes.
After listening to his words, her heart had a tingle for no reason as if she had been stung by a bee.
She smiled as if she was laughing at herself. She knew that in all these years, no one would treat her in a soft way, not even for comfort.
“I’ll let you use a hard way to me too.” Jun Yeyan’s deep voice came into ears of Bai Aoxue who was melancholy.
Listening to Jun Yeyan’s words, Bai Aoxue clenched her fists and lowered her head. She didn’t look at Jun Yeyan.
However, there was a perfect arc in the corners of her mouth.
“I won’t treat you with a hard way.” Bai Aoxue said lightly. Only she knew how lively her words were.
Jun Yeyan would never miss Bai Aoxue’s shy appearance at the moment. Looking at the beauty that lowered her head, with corners of his mouth slightly upward, he was inconceivably handsome at the moment.
Bai Aoxue raised her eyes to another two people ahead, felt relieved and said: “Let’s go. It’s impossible for my uncle to have dinner with us today. Liushuang is still waiting in the front yard.”
Jun Yeyan left with Bai Aoxue. He asked: “Don’t you worry? You know Jun Wuhen’s character. Since he is interested in Luoyan, he won’t give up easily.”
Bai Aoxue smiled confidently and said in high spirits: “I can only say that if Jun Wuhen looks down on my uncle, he will lose miserably. He is bringing about his own destruction if he dares to vie for my uncle’s woman!”
While saying like this, she even clenched her little fists.
Seeing what Bai Aoxue looks like at the moment, Jun Yeyan felt pleased. Bai Aoxue would be definitely relaxed a lot since Ye Zhaojue’s problem was solved.
Today’s earnest advice wasn’t in vain.
“So, why do you want to see Liushuang? Is there anything that I can’t do for you?” said Jun Yeyan. When Jun Yeyan thought of Liushuang, he became jealous.
Bai Aoxue originally intended to keep it from Jun Yeyan. After all, if Jun Yeyan knew that she wanted to run a casino, he would certainly help her in secret.
Neither did she want to owe him too much nor rely on him too much. As a professional killer in the preceding world, she would not allow herself to have such feelings.
It’s because these feelings would become her most fatal weakness. However, now she understood a lot. She was no longer the “Gorgeous Demon”, let alone the “Evil Poisonous Doctor”.
Now she was Bai Aoxue. This new Bai Aoxue had kinsfolk and friends. She had hindrances and she had people whom she wanted to protect.
Now she had all of those things that she used to sneer at. Instead of weakening her, they made her stronger.
She finally understood that a person would become stronger when he had something he wanted to protect.
Since strong beliefs supported her, why would she be afraid?
“I’m going to open a casino, but I can’t be there all the time. Someone has to be there for me.” Bai Aoxue told Jun Yeyan about her plan.
“Even if you need hands, I can pick some for you from my men.” Jun Yeyan didn’t give up.
After listening to Jun Yeyan’s words, Bai Aoxue twitched the corners of her mouth and said: “Because Liushuang is very beautiful, noble ladies will surely be attracted by him, and some men with special hobbies will be obsessed with him too. At that time, the business is thriving, I will make a great profit. You said you could find me some men. Are they as beautiful as Liushuang?”
Listening to such kind of words, Jun Yeyan was relieved. It turned out that this was Bai Aoxue’s intention of picking Liushuang. He couldn’t help feeling sorry for Liushuang. Did she say “man with special hobbies”? As a young lady, Bai Aoxue was really bold to say that.
Noticing that Jun Yeyan didn’t say anything, Bai Aoxue thought that he was unsatisfied with her latter sentence. She looked askance at Jun Yeyan and said: “Are you going to let Zhao look for the casino for me? Look at Zhao’s indifferent face that has remained unchanged for thousands of years. It’s alright if nobody would come. He will scare away guests. Or Zhaoye? He shakes a fan all day like a fox. If I hire such a shrewd man, who dares to come?”
After listening to Bai Aoxue’s words, Jun Yeyan twitched the corners of his eyes. He was sympathized with Zhao and Zhaoye.
It turned out that they were such kind of people in Xue’s eyes. Fortunately, Zhao was not here at the moment. If he had heard what Xue said, his unchanged face would surely change thoroughly.
At the moment, running around with three children, Zhao didn’t know that he had been teased thoroughly by Princess.
“Well, I also think that Liushuang is up to this job. Honey, you’re really wise that you make such a good decision.” Jun Yeyan immediately flattered her.
Bai Aoxue nodded satisfactorily after listening to Jun Yeyan’s words. She then went to the front yard with Jun Yeyan.
“What a beautiful girl you are. You will have several healthy children in the future. I don’t know who will be so lucky to marry you. Hahahaha…”
When they arrived at the front yard, Bai Aoxue heard the shameless jokes and laughter inside.
Without thinking, Bai Aoxue knew that he was Liushuang.
“Don’t play tricks on me, Young Master Liushuang.” Wenxi’s indifferent voice sounded. Bai Aoxue knew that Wenxi was trying to resist her anger. She was at the edge of temper tantrum at this time.
She also heard Mumian and Hongxiu’s laughter that they tried hard to hold back but failed.
Bai Aoxue had nothing to do with them but shook her head. Jun Yeyan raised up his eyebrows slightly. They both had their own thoughts.
“You’re really fair and tender. Let me touch your cute face.” Liushuang turned to another girl.
Bai Aoxue knew that if she did not go in, her three maidservants would be teased by Liushuang in turn.
“Young Master Liushuang, you’re really in a good mood.” Bai Aoxue said lightly and appeared at the door.
“Of course, there are so many beauties here, but the most beautiful one hasn’t… come…yet. Oh, the most beautiful one… oh! Here comes Master!” Liushuang was laughing dissolutely at first. However, when he turned his head, he saw Bai Aoxue and Jun Yeyan looking at him coldly at the same time. He immediately changed the address.
Those who suit their actions to the times are wise.
Liushuang, who were slick and sly, gave Bai Aoxue a headache, as she had to deal with the trouble-maker.
“Well, let’s make a long story short. If you do a good job, I will teach you the skills of gambling, but if I’m not satisfied, you know the result.” Bai Aoxue stroked her forehead gently and said.
After hearing that, Liushuang was immediately excited. He sat straight in front of the table and said: “What is Master’s command? Please tell me!”
Bai Aoxue gave Mumian a wink. When Mumian saw that, she immediately went to Bai Aoxue and took out those house deeds that she kept carefully.
“These are the deeds of those antique shops in the main street of the capital. Take them back and find some competent people to redecorate them. As for those antiques, scripts and paintings, take them to the pawnshop to exchange some silver ingots. Keep the rest of the money in safe.” Handing those deeds to Liushuang, Bai Aoxue said slowly.
Liushuang did not hesitate. He took over those deeds and put them in his pocket.
“These are all no problem. But are you sure there will be guests if you open a casino? There has already been a large casino in the capital. Its owner will not let you have a share.” After thinking for a while, Liushuang asked slowly.
After Bai Aoxue listened to Liushuang’s words, she smiled confidently and said: “There must be something special in my casino. Gambling shouldn’t follow the same pattern. There’s no need to worry about the casino. Besides, we have you. You are the second boss of the casino.”
The first part of Bai Aoxue’s words let Liushuang be in high spirits, while the second half shocked him slightly. He didn’t expect that Bai Aoxue intended to hand over the casino to him.
“You trust me?” asked Liushuang. He squinted at Bai Aoxue without blinking.
Bai Aoxue nodded and laughed: “I do.” She just said “I do” without redundant explanation.
But Liushuang put these two words in his heart. How long has it been since no one said they believed him? It felt as good as ever.
Ha…
“In that case, I am bound to live up to your trust. See you at the casino in five days.” He laughed, got up and said.
Bai Aoxue nodded softly but said nothing more. She just watched Liushuang leave.
What Bai Aoxue did not say was that she believed Liushuang because they were the same kind of person. “If you treat me with your heart, I will certainly treat you in the same way.”
But she would never make a blind decision. Liushuang didn’t care about a small casino. What kept him was his strong interest. However, now, they were more closely linked.
