Guide To Reign My Tycoon Husbands - Chapter 247

Chapter 247: Refusing to participate
“What ..what do you mean?” Xue Shen looked at Luo Huian with a frown on her face. She said, “I know that I am an F-rank hunter but you don’t need to call me a coward because of this.”

She had heard many of the members of her guild calling her a coward, she didn’t need Luo Huian to say the same thing.

“I am not calling you a coward because of your rank as a hunter,” Luo Huian said with a cold look on her face. She glanced at the woman in front of her and stated in an emotionless voice, “I am calling you a coward because you lack the courage to face your fears. I am an F rank too, do you see me lowering my head in front of anyone?”

“That’s because you have the skills and power. You are way stronger—” Xue Shen began but Luo Huian curled her lips. Looking at the two women who seemed to be filled with terror, Luo Huian felt annoyed.

“Who is stopping you from getting strong?” Luo Huian asked with a raise of her brow. “If you are weak then get stronger. If you can’t even work on yourself and choose to give up, who do you think will stand up for you?”

“You want others to protect you? Who is going to protect you from your thoughts?” Luo Huian questioned as she got up from the chair on which she was sitting.

Xue Shen opened her lips to tell Luo Huian that she was not relying on anyone but before she could say anything, Luo Huian smirked and remarked “First learn how to keep your head straight on your shoulders. You cannot even look that woman in the eyes, how are you not relying on others? Look at your own flaws before you start blaming anyone.”

She glanced at Daddy Xue and even though Luo Huian didn’t say anything, Xue Shen understood what she was trying to say to her. Her face turned red but Xue Shen had nothing to say.

Because Luo Huian’s words brought the one truth that she had always been avoiding.

Daddy Xue’s eyes turned red when he heard Luo Huian’s words. Warmth surged in his heart when he heard her concerned remarks.

He had never expected anyone to see through his struggle, after all the job and position that he had taken were not respectful and his daughters found him embarrassing.

This was the first time someone had stood up for him and understood his predicament.

Before this anyone who had seen or talked to him, they had looked down on him for the work he did. Even his daughters blamed him for serving Leader Xu and Chen Zian.

But had anyone asked him what he was going through? Of course, he didn’t want to serve those women and keep his daughters away from the darkness of the society but what could he do with the situation his ex wife had put them?

She didn’t allow him to take any decent job as that woman was worried that he would one day reveal the truth that she was hiding from her new husband.

He could only take this low level and disrespectful job in the eyes of others to raise his daughters.

Who would want to sell their bodies? He had no other choice. Because if he did then he would never taken this path.

Luo Huian didn’t say anything more.

Whether or not Xue Shen and Xue You could figure out everything, depended on them.

Luo Huian glanced at Daddy Xue and said to him, “Thank you for the meal, Master Xue. It was delicious.”

“Oh if you want then I have another bowl…” Daddy Xue was quite pleased when he heard Luo Huian say that his cooking was delicious. His daughters had stopped calling his cooking delicious from the very day they understood what kind of job he did.

In fact, they refused to even eat what he cooked most of the time.

“Oh no it’s alright,” Luo Huian smiled as she refused. She knew that this was the last bowl of noodles that Daddy Xue had kept for himself. She did not want to take away the only meal Daddy Xue ate in the day.

Luo Huian stepped out of the apartment leaving the Xue family to spend some time together. If Xue Shen and Xue You understood even half of what she had said to them, the two sisters would take this opportunity to make up for the time that they had lost along with the disrespect that they handed to their daddy.

She closed the door behind her. Before heading down the stairs.

“Huian,” Xiao Bai looked at Luo Huian who was heading out to Main Street and asked, “Why are you helping them so much?”

“What’s wrong?” Luo Huian took out a lolli and placed it in her mouth. “Were you not the one who wanted me to help the innocent and the needy?”

Xiao Bai scrunched up her face, before turning to look at Xiao Hei who sighed and said to Luo Huian, “It is just weird. As far as we know you have never been anything but cruel and disrespectful to others.”

“Anyone would feel that there is something going on with how you are acting.”

“Isn’t it fun? Using my hands to pummel and beat these women?” Luo Huian asked causing the two snakes to pause and look at one another.

Xiao Hei looked at Xiao Bai and tilted his head to one side as if to tell her — I told you so.

While the two of them were engaged in silent conversation, Luo Huian’s smile faltered.

‘Huian… are you alright?’ Wei Yuxian looked at her as he threw away the teen boy whose collar he was holding in his hand. ‘Are you hurt somewhere?’

Luo Huian shook her head as she crawled up to her knees and wiped the blood off her lips. ‘I am okay.’

‘Ahaha is that so?’ Wu Yuxian stomped on the face of the boy who had punched Luo Huian in the face. His actions caused the boy’s mouth to bleed and one of his teeth was knocked out.

He reached forward and picked up Luo Huian in his arms causing her to yelp.

‘Brother Yuxian!’

‘There, there… my little Huian. You were scared were you not?’ He said to her as he carried her away from those who had bullied her.

Luo Huian’s expression turned awkward. ‘I am not scared.’

‘Yes.. yes.. you were not scared,’ said Wei Yuxian but anyone could see that he was patronising her. He paused and asked, ‘Do you want to eat roasted chicken from Da Bao Restaurant?’

‘Why are you treating me? I should be the one treating you instead,’ she said to the boy who was carrying her.

Wei Yuxian chuckled, ‘Ah little Huian wants to treat me? Why don’t we do this? If there is someone who needs your help just like how you needed mine… make sure to help them.’

As Luo Huian came to a stop at Main Street and chomped down the lolli in her mouth hard until it crushed into pieces.

“What a mess,” Luo Huian muttered under her breath.

On the other side, in the Liao Hong’s secretary Ji Yao’s office.

“Are you sure you want to do this?” Ji Yao looked at the mer in front of her. She could not believe the thing that Fan Meilin was saying to him.

“Is something the matter?” Fan Mielin asked with his arms crossed behind his back.

“Something the matter?” Ji Yao raised her voice until it turned shrill. “What do you mean by something the matter? This race is a serious one! How can you even refuse to participate in this race? You know what is on the line here, don’t you?”

This race was sponsored by them and the prize reward was a total of 50 million yuan.

If Fan Meilin who was their ace racer, did not participate then what were they supposed to do?

Fan Meilin curled his lips and said to her, “What’s wrong? Were you not pushing Su Su with all your might? What happened he cannot help you win this race?”

Ji Yao looked at Fan Meilin with such a poisonous gaze that if not for the fact that looks couldn’t kill — Fan Meilin would have died countless times.

“Fan Meilin, you…”

“Assistant Ji,” Fan Meilin interrupted the woman before she could say anything more. “It is true that I cannot break the contract but that doesn’t mean that I cannot refuse to participate in a race.”

“I have told you that I am not in my best form. Is it so difficult for me to take a few weeks break? I am certain that just a few days ago you were willing to send me on an indefinite hiatus?”

“What went wrong?”
