Reborn: The Godfather Has Fallen For Me

Although Ouyang Tian, who appeared kind and gentle on the surface, looked a little old and senile, the sharp light that shot out of his eyes still made people’s hearts tremble.

Now, Shen Xiaoxiao only wanted to stall for time and fight for as much as possible for Yan Kuan.

However, her plan seemed to have been within Ouyang Tian’s expectations. She only heard him say:

“Although K-ONE is a foreign industry, if Mr. Yan wants to set up a branch in China, it would be a good project that benefits the country and the people.”

“Although my old bones can’t do much for the country, I’m very willing to see more overseas Chinese return to the country for development. For example, my Ouyang family welcomes people like Mr. Yan. If you have any needs, feel free to ask… There’s no reason for the Ouyang family not to help.”

This was a huge promise. Everyone looked at Shen Xiaoxiao with even more jealousy and envy than before. This eldest daughter of the Shen family was tied to a big tree and was so favored by Grandfather Ouyang… It seemed that her future was boundless.

However, no matter how envious these people were, Shen Xiaoxiao felt particularly terrified. He knew that Yan Kuan wasn’t here, yet he deliberately said this in front of so many people, clearly telling everyone that Yan Kuan was on the same side as the Ouyang family. In the future, if Yan Kuan’s K-ONE wanted to set up a branch in China, it was normal for the Ouyang family to get involved.

This old fox had a good plan. It seemed that he knew what Yan Kuan was up to.

Now that everyone saw Shen Xiaoxiao’s reaction, they all felt that this kind of hospitality would make anyone who was sensible cry with gratitude.

However, Shen Xiaoxiao chose to do the opposite. In any case, she was stalling for time. She slowly opened her mouth and said to Ouyang Tian:

“Grandfather Ouyang’s feelings for China and his concern and care for it are beyond our reach. It’s just that I’ve never heard of K-ONE setting up a branch in China. After all, K-ONE is famous for its casinos all over the world. China’s national conditions do not allow such an industrial chain to exist, so Grandfather Ouyang’s good intentions have been wasted.

“But I’m not the spokesperson of K-ONE. I’m afraid that the future of K-ONE will be decided by Yan Kuan himself.”

“Hmm, that’s true. Where’s Yan Kuan? Why isn’t he here?”

“Oh, Miss An Ning accidentally spilled red wine on him just now. He went to the bathroom and is waiting for the assistant to bring his clothes over.”

Ouyang Tian frowned, but soon relaxed. He put on a guilty look and said, “It’s our fault. How could Ning’er be so reckless? Ning’er? Where’s Ning’er?”

Only when Ouyang Tian shouted did he realize that his precious grandson and granddaughter were not there. He turned his head to look at Ouyang Jincheng. Ouyang Jincheng had come with Ouyang Tian, so he naturally did not know. He looked at Huo Wanting, who was on the other side.

Huo Wanting’s heart was filled with panic. That b*tch was really good at ruining things. Now, how would she know where this person went?

It would be best if she died outside and didn’t come back. If it wasn’t enough, she wouldn’t have said this right now. Who wouldn’t know how to save face? Immediately, she smiled and said to Ouyang Tian, “This little girl loves to be beautiful. She probably went to touch up her makeup now. I’ll get someone to call her.”

As soon as Huo Wanting’s words fell, a servant immediately stepped back. This action made Ouyang Tian’s expression inexplicable. The mistress’ control over the Ouyang family was pretty good. He had never seen these servants so attentive in the past.

It seemed that even if he wanted to help Pei Li up, it would not be easy for Pei Li to continue on. However, if he wanted to be the head of the Ouyang family, how could he not experience inhuman experiences? These could be considered as tempering.

“Boss, send someone to check on Yan Kuan while you’re at it. If the clothes don’t arrive, get someone to send them over in time.”

Shen Xiaoxiao’s heart skipped a beat, and she immediately said, “The assistant is almost here. I won’t trouble Eldest Madam.”

“It’s not troublesome, how would it be troublesome? It’s just a small matter.”

Huo Wanting was very easygoing, and she was very amiable to everyone. However, Shen Xiaoxiao knew that this woman’s viciousness was not inferior to Ouyang Tian’s. It seemed that a woman with the tattoo of the Suoyin flower was not an ordinary character, and every one of them was extremely vicious.

In the eyes of others, Shen Xiaoxiao’s repeated rejection was a little unappreciative. At this moment, Liu Yufei was thinking the same thing.

Before attending the banquet tonight, she had specially instructed Liu Qianmin and Gu Yuehua not to cause any trouble. Even if they saw Shen Xiaoxiao, they had to pretend that they did not see her. Tonight was especially special. It was a special day for Pei Li to enter the Ouyang family. If anything unexpected happened at such an occasion, all the money and effort that their family had put in to support Pei Li for so long would be wasted.

Therefore, putting aside their temporary hatred and protecting their precious daughter’s position was the couple’s top priority.

Seeing Shen Xiaoxiao acting like she didn’t know how to appreciate a favor, the two of them thought of the same thing. ‘She doesn’t know how to appreciate a favor.’

After Ouyang Tian and Huo Wanting had spoken, naturally, someone went to the washroom with a tray.

Shen Xiaoxiao’s heart was pounding. He had to come back. He had to come back.

However, the heavens did not seem to have heard Shen Xiaoxiao’s prayer. A moment later, a servant carrying the tray walked out and said to Huo Wanting, “Reporting to Madam, the bathroom is empty.”

“Empty? How is that possible?”

As soon as Huo Wanting finished speaking, Ouyang Tian looked at Shen Xiaoxiao and opened his mouth to ask, “Yan Kuan is no longer there? That’s strange. Didn’t you say that he went to the bathroom to change his clothes? Could it be that he went to another place?”

Shen Xiaoxiao clenched her handbag tightly. What was she going to say? How was she going to answer? This Ouyang Tian was doing it on purpose. He must be doing it on purpose. He was testing her. He was testing Yan Kuan. He must have suspected something. Definitely.

“He’s a heavy smoker. Maybe he went to the smoking-room first.”

“Oh? Smoking-room? Go, go to the smoking-room and look for him. Make sure you send the clothes over.”

After saying that, Ouyang Tian looked at Shen Xiaoxiao playfully. This girl was still so calm. She was not bad, but it was a pity that she was old. Otherwise, it would be a good choice to train her well.

Shen Xiaoxiao naturally did not know that Ouyang Tian had already thought through the possibility of Shen Xiaoxiao being the mistress of the Ouyang family in his heart. Otherwise, she would probably be scared to death. Who would want to tattoo that damn thing? Was he sick? In the eyes of the Ouyang family, she really did not care about things that were considered treasures.

However, now was not the time to worry about this. If they did not find anyone in the smoking room, what excuse should she use?

Although Shen Xiaoxiao’s expression did not change, her heart had already turned several times. In just a few minutes, the servant came back again. However, what made Shen Xiaoxiao relieved this time was that she actually saw Yan Kuan’s figure. He had followed the servant into the room.

Shen Xiaoxiao’s heart was immediately relieved. It was so close, so close. She immediately turned around and walked towards Yan Kuan without caring about anything. Her tone carried a trace of complaint as she said, “Where did you go? First Madam asked someone to send clothes over for you. They didn’t see you in the bathroom, so I guessed that you went to smoke. Your smoking addiction is really big.”

With a trace of coquettishness and complaint, Yan Kuan smiled slightly. He stretched out his hand and held her pair of hands that were somewhat cold because of nervousness.

“It’s my fault. I’ll definitely smoke less in the future. I’m really addicted to smoking. I’m sorry, everyone. First Madam, thank you for your kind intentions.”
