Guide To Reign My Tycoon Husbands - Chapter 290

Chapter 290: caught in middle
Like hell, she could leave him alone! She had worked so hard to finally get what she wanted and now that Liao Hong was this close to getting her hands on the very thing she had once lost, that mer was turning his back on her?

As if she was going to allow him to do such a thing!

No matter what, that mer was hers to own and claim.

‘Fan Meilin, you better not test my patience,’ Liao Hong stood up harshly, sending the chair on which she was sitting crashing back down on the ground.

The crash was enough to make the entire team of the board members grimace and flinch.

And as Liao Hong walked out of the meeting room, no one said a word as they knew what Liao Hong was capable of.

The last time someone pissed her off, Liao Hong sent that person to prison, where that woman died a pathetic death.

Even in her death, that woman didn’t get a chance to recover the pride that she had lost at the hands of Liao Hong.

“What made her angry this time around?” One of the board members couldn’t help but ask. They were having an important meeting, and Liao Hong left just like that.

“Who else?” Another board member shrugged her shoulders as she replied, “Other than Fan Meilin, who else could make Liao Hong lose her temper like that?”

“Shh, watch what you say,” a man nudged the woman and tipped his head towards Cao Xueping who was sitting at the seat which was right next to Liao Hong.

Though his expression was blank, one could see that he was furious with how hard he was clenching his fingers.

‘Fan Meilin!’ Cao Xueping gritted his teeth angrily. Even though he made Liao Hong marry him, even though he gave her a daughter –that woman was still pining after that mer. Why? In which place was he lacking?

“Achoo!” On the other side, Fan Meilim rubbed his nose and looked up at the stage that was set in front of him. He turned and glanced at Luo Huian before saying to her, “I hope that you are truly not planning to fight with the Chow Chow Man, it’s all an act and the person inside the costume is just a small actor.”

He had seen the things that Luo Huian could do, and the last thing he wanted was for Luo Huian to beat some unknown actor and create another buzz.

“Of course, I know that,” Luo Huian said to Fan Meilin with an innocent expression. “I wasn’t going to beat that person anyway.”

“I am not that cold-hearted and violent.”

With a haughty expression, Luo Huian relayed, “I am not a childish person, why would I beat an innocent person just because of a childish bet?”

Though she said that, the truth was that Luo Huian suddenly remembered a few days ago that she could not beat innocent humans.  There was no way she was going, to tell the truth about how she was afraid of getting her arse handed to her, so she could only pretend to be generous.

Fan Meilin had a feeling that there was something wrong with what Luo Huian said to him, but he still nodded and said to her, “As long as you can understand this, it’s alright.”

Luo Huian simply smiled at the mer without saying anything.

Beside her, Bai Shiliu who had returned with Fu Bao leaned towards Luo Huian and remarked, “Why didn’t I know that you were such a mature woman?”

“I also didn’t know that you were a nosy woman… but here we are.”

The two women glared at one another but before they could start fighting, the auditorium where they were sitting turned dark and the stage lights were turned on.

Two emcees, a mer and a woman, stood on the stage. They smiled at the crowd while the children who were seated in their chosen seats started cheering.

“Chow Chow man!”

“Chow Chow man!”

Only some weirdos like Fan Xiajin booed at the stage.

“The Chow Chow show is about to start!” the woman said with a smile on her face.

“Okay now everyone! We are going to call for Chow Chow man!”

“Ready set….”

“CHOW CHOW MAN!”

The curtains on the stage moved and soon a person stepped forward but it wasn’t the character that everyone was hoping for—

It was—

“AHH!” the female emcee shrieked. “It’s Captain Cavity! The biggest enemy of children and Chow Chow Man.”

“What’s going on? We called for Chow Chow Man!” the mer emcee spoke with a panicked expression. He then clapped his hands and said, “Oh I know it’s because the cheers were not loud enough.”

“No, they were pretty loud,” Luo Huian deadpanned. As the entire auditorium was filled with silence, her voice was loud enough for not only the parents who came with their children to hear but even the mer on the stage heard it.

His expression turned slightly embarrassed but he pretended not to hear what Luo Huian had said, ignoring the laughter of the adults, he turned to look at the children and said to them,

“Come on! We will call Chow Chow Man with more passion.”

“One… Two ..three!”

“CHOW CHOW MAN!”

This time around the shrill screams of the children were so loud that Luo Huian was certain that the roof of the auditorium was about to blow off.

“This damn—”

She was about to speak when suddenly a loud blaring alarm echoed in her ears.

[CAUTION!]

{CAUTION}

[High level of Gloom Aura detected!]

[Appearance of Hollow might be possible!]

[Please be careful!]

“What the…” Luo Huian raised her head and looked at the Chow Chow man for whom everyone was waiting and was left stunned when she saw how deeply the person was infused with the Aura of Gloom.

She stared at the person in costume on the stage before asking Xiao Bai and Xiao Hei,

“Can I ignore her?”
