Guide To Reign My Tycoon Husbands - Chapter 125

Chapter 125: Pass the benchmark
Though it was a bit unfair for the S-rank hunters to be given such a special status, Luo Huian who wanted to go back home as soon as possible did not care about it.

Who cares? As long as she saved fifty S-rank hunters, she was going to get a step closer to returning home.

Or maybe she might even return home after she was done with her mission?

The old hag had always been strict with her but at the same time as long as Luo Huian pretended to be reflecting that old woman would let her off.

So as long as she acted as if she was truly reflecting on her mistake, that old hag was bound to forgive her.

Hehehehe… just fifty more people.

Luo Huian was lost in her merry thoughts when the door of her ward burst open.

Startled, Luo Huian turned to look at the person who had barged inside her ward and was surprised when she saw that it was actually Duan Wen and her father, Daddy Duan.

“Jia Xu! Jingli! Oh my goodness, thank heavens you two are alright,” Daddy Duan rushed over towards Duan Jia Xu unceremoniously and hugged him.

It was truly an awkward moment for Duan Jia Xu as he had never been treated well by Daddy Duan. Thus, he was simply shocked out of his wits when he saw that his stepfather was hugging him.

As far as he knew it, Daddy Duan hated him so much and considered the blood in his veins dirty because his daddy was a dancer in a troupe.

So why the hell was he hugging him all of a sudden?

“You bad person! What are you doing?” Duan Jingli eyed Master Duan warily. He was young but not a fool, he could see that there was something wrong about Master Duan coming to see him and his brother all of a sudden.

“You little one, how can you call your daddy a bad person?” Master Duan pinched Duan Jingli on the cheek but he refrained from hurting him as he was in the presence of one of the strongest people in the nation.

He turned to look at Luo Qingling while ignoring Luo Huian. He said to her, “Leader Qingling, I am grateful that you saved my son. I have no idea how I will ever be able to pay you back for saving the life of my son.”

Duan Jia Xu finally snapped out of his daze and pulled away from Master Duan, his face was scrunched up in disgust as he said to the mer, “I am not your son.”

Master Duan’s lips were curled up in a smile lowered a little. He turned to look at Duan Jia Xu and said to him in a clipped voice, “Unfortunately as your mother left you in my hands, I am still your daddy.”

He then turned around to face Luo Qingling and greedily asked, “Leader Qingling for how much money will you be signing my son? I am telling you that he might be naive but I am not. I will not be accepting anything less than a hundred million yuan per month.”

“After all, this is the cheapest price for which an S rank hunter will become a part of a guild.”

“If you don’t agree then you can tell us that as well, we have a bunch of guilds lining up to sign my son.”

Luo Qingling frowned. Indeed hundred million yuan was not a big sum in this time and situation but the way Master Duan was speaking made her feel annoyed.

He was speaking as if Duan Jia Xu was some sort of accessory that he was auctioning.

Duan Jia Xu also understood from where the fatherly love that Master Duan was showing him suddenly started to pour out.

It was because he awakened as an S rank hunter and now his worth was much higher than before. As Duan Wen was a failure when it came to running the company and she owed a lot of debts, Master Duan was hoping he would fill those pits.

Not to mention as he was a mer, many high-profile women would be lining up to marry him and would hand out grand betrothal gifts to marry him.

After all, if an S rank hunter were to marry them, in the eyes of those women, the chances of them getting a child who could awake as an S rank would turn higher.

Master Duan must be hoping to get his hands on those benefits which would indirectly help his daughter.

Duan Jia Xu curled his lips mockingly even though he somehow became someone from no one, he still could not escape these greedy leeches.

“Psst, hey! Hey!”

Just as he felt a surge of gloom inside of his heart, he heard Luo Huian call Master Duan and Duan Wen.

“Who do you think you are, huh fugly?” The woman asked with a roguish note in her voice.

Master Duan was trying his best to pretend as if he could not see Luo Huian. His daughter had already told him that something was going on between Luo Huian and Duan Jia Xu.

If Duan Jia Xu had not awakened, he would have willingly handed Duan Jia Xu with both hands to this rogue woman.

But Duan Jia Xu was now a S rank hunter, his worth was more than Luo Huian’s paramour!

He couldn’t waste Duan Jia Xu’s potential by letting him get entangled with Luo Huian anymore.

So, Master Duan turned around and looked at Luo Huian contemptuously, “Miss Huian, I am aware that you hold some feelings for my son. But I will ask you to squash them as my son will do much better without you.”

“Not to mention you hardly pass the benchmark to stand next to my son.”

No matter how skilled Luo Huian was, she was in the end an F-rank hunter, how could she even be worthy of Duan Jia Xu?
