805 Putting the Cart Before the Horse
When Father Guan heard Guan Miaoyan’s words, he turned his gaze to Xue Fanxin and realized that she was only a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl. Hence, he treated her as a child and asked in an overbearing tone, “How did you deceive my son to acknowledge you as his Mistress?”
From the looks of it, Father Guan was very dissatisfied with Guan Xiaoyan acknowledging a little girl as his Mistress.
“Father, what are you talking about? What deception? I was the one who pestered them, okay?” Guan Xiaoyan tried his best to explain for Xue Fanxin. “If not for them these two days, I would have been killed long ago. Master and Mistress are very capable. What’s wrong with me taking them as my masters?”
“Shut up.” Father Guan roared angrily. “Do you know her background and purpose? Those people killed you for the Guan family’s assets. Can’t they also approach you for the Guan family’s assets? You’re the Young Master of the Guan family and the only heir of the Guan family. Please have some brains when you deal with things.”
“Dad, you don’t know anything. What right do you have to say that?”
“It’s precisely because we don’t know anything that we have to deal with it carefully lest those with ulterior motives have a chance.”
Xue Fanxin listened for most of the day, and her patience was gone. She asked mockingly, “Then, when your son was being chased by your daughter, where were you as a father? A savior of one’s life is like their parents reborn. If Guan Xiaoyan wasn’t too disappointed in his parents, how could he not seek help from us when he was repeatedly being pursued? Your son encountered three intense pursuits in just two days. It wasn’t easy for him to survive the bullets. As a father, shouldn’t you ask your son how much his body and mind has been hurt?”
“You have no right to speak here,” Father Guan reprimanded her angrily.
Xue Fanxin magnified her aura and retorted, “You’re the one who has the least right to speak here.”
Father Guan was shocked by Xue Fanxin’s powerful aura and almost knelt down. At this moment, he no longer dared to look at Xue Fanxin with disdain, but more shock.
Where did a fifteen-year-old girl get such a powerful aura?
“Guan Xiaoyan is a disciple my fiancé took in. He called my fiancé his Master and I am his Mistress, so I’ll protect him to the end. As his biological parents, where were you when he needed you the most? What Guan family’s property? My personal property is dozens or hundreds of times larger than the Guan family’s, so I have no interest in the Guan family’s property.” Xue Fanxin pretended to take out an egg-sized green crystal from her pocket and threw it to Guan Xiaoyan. “This is a greeting gift from your Mistress. Take it.”
Guan Xiaoyan took the green crystal and was shocked after taking a look. “Wow… Mistress, this emerald is extraordinarily valuable!”
Father Guan was a businessman and had seen quite a few good things. Of course, he could tell that the gem in Guan Xiaoyan’s hand was valuable. At this moment, he looked at Xue Fanxin differently, but for the sake of his face, he did not want to compromise. “Hmph, you want to use a gem to deceive my son’s trust. You can deceive my son, but you can’t deceive me.”
“Mr. Guan, I think you’re mistaken about the severity of the matter. You’re putting the cart before the horse. Could it be that your purpose here today is to suppress me, and not to help your son deal with the person who wants to kill him?”
Hearing Xue Fanxin’s question, Father Guan was speechless, but he still felt very uncomfortable.
He was a big shot who dominated the business world. How could he feel comfortable after being humiliated by a little girl?
