Guide To Reign My Tycoon Husbands - Chapter 98

Chapter 98: Higher rank
Luo Huian wasn’t foolish to reveal her true intentions but at the same time, she didn’t feel like lying either.

She was an immortal and had always sternly followed the rule to speak the truth as much as possible. She would hide the truth but she won’t lie unless it would lead to dire consequences.

At least Luo Huian would never lie like that man had lied to her.

She thought for a while before saying, “Hmm…maybe it was because I suddenly wanted to do a good deed.”

“…I am not interested in whatever cult that you have started,” Duan Jia Xu clarified his stance tentatively. “Thank you for saving me and my brother. I don’t have money to pay for the medical bills but I can write the IOU for you.”

“Why is everyone thinking that I have started a cult?! That’s not what this is about!” Luo Huian stated with a new and upcoming headache. This was simply too much, why was it difficult to make people trust her?

It was easier to fight the Glooms.

She thought long and hard before she clapped her hands and said, “A——Actually, it’s not like we are not unacquainted. There had been one time when your mother helped me.”

“It was when I was sixteen and ended up getting in a mess with some of my seniors. They dragged me to drink in a bar before sneaking away. However, I was also really young, where would I get the money to pay for the drinks? It was your mother who helped me pay off the bill.”

This matter caused quite a stir in the city. The previous owner was photographed and insulted on the internet, however, the truth was that she was not alone but her seniors were with her.

However, once the previous owner was drunk out of her wits they escaped and left her alone in the pub.

Luo Huian knew this matter was fishy and she investigated the matter herself.

Her investigation was simple, she sent Xiao Bai to the dreams of those who had caused the previous owner to suffer and had them confess.

And the one who was behind the scene was ——Qiu Qin, Luo Qingling’s father.

It was a despicable way to deal with a young girl but what could Luo Huian say? That mer looked scheming from one glance.

Only someone as blind as Luo Yeqing would believe that there was any humanity and kindness left in that mer.

Anyway, she was not technically lying. Madam Duan had indeed helped her by paying off the bills of the previous owner. Of course, it was because the previous owner clung to her leg and begged for the bill to be paid.

In the end, Madam Duan was somewhat acquainted with Luo Yeqing and agreed.

Even if it was a small amount for her, it could be counted as doing a favour to the previous Luo Yeqing.

Fortunately, she remembered this on time or else Duan Jia Xu would have become even more wary of her.

“Your mother helped me which is why I came to visit you and your brother. Who would have thought that I would be turned away? So I had no choice but to sneak inside your house.”

“I know that I came late but there was nothing that I could do. My life was in a mess as well. I am embarrassed about that as well but now that I have straightened up my own life, I came to help you.”

Sure enough, Duan Jia Xu no longer looked as wary as before. He exhaled heavily and stated, “There is no need to apologise to us. My mother was used to helping the poor and the needy. Anyway, compared to many others, Miss Huian is much better.”

“At least you are not hitting us when we are down. That much is enough to show your kindness.”

“I am glad that you can see my kind heart,” Luo Huian ignored the poor and needy comment through gritted teeth before saying, “I hope that would have cleared up your misunderstanding ?”

Duan Jia Xu wanted to nod but he paused halfway and then said to Luo Huian, “There is one more thing that I need to ask, did you bring us here because you want something from us?”

No matter how much Duan Jia Xu thought about it, it was still fishy. Even if Luo Huian was helped by his mother, she wouldn’t bring them to this VIP ward and give him the finest medicines which cost a million yuan.

‘This mer is rather sharp,’ Luo Huian thought. She sighed and then sat down on the stool that was right beside Duan Jia Xu’s bed.

She then said to Duan Jia Xu, “You are right. I indeed need you for something. You might find it a bit dubious but believe me when I say that you have an extraordinary chance of awakening as a high-class hunter.”

“Awakening?” Duan Jia Xu tasted the word in his mouth and swallowed hard. The last time he went to the Hunter Association they told him that his talent was rather low and he would only awaken as an F class.

That was the last straw that broke the camel’s back as his and his brother’s world were turned upside down.

Master Duan who took him to the Hunter Association was also furious. He thought that Duan Jia Xu could at least be of some use to him but the mer turned out to be an F class.

He was so angry that Master Duan slapped Duan Jia Xu in front of everyone and called him useless. No one said a word either because that was how F-class hunters were treated. They held no rights and respect in the eyes of higher-ranking hunters.

That was how Duan Jia Xu ended up in this tragic situation and never tried to awaken because he knew that he would only get an F rank.

Who would want to be embarrassed by awakening as an F-rank hunter? He might as well live as a commoner but now Luo Huian was telling him that he had the chance of awakening as a high-class hunter?
