"Yue Er, you say we know each other so well, if I ask you to help with sothing, you would surely be willing, right?"
Nearly at the entrance of the Mountain Gate, Tang Rao's sudden words left Yue Er a bit perplexed.
"What? What does the master need Yue Er to do?"
The look in his eyes wasn't fake; certain that Tang Rao wasn't joking, Yue Er asked again: "Whatever the master needs Yue Er to do, Yue Er will do it without hesitation, even unto death. This life was given to Yue Er by the master; the master can take it back at any ti."
What a joke, just under Tang Rao's beauty trap recently, even if Tang Rao wasn't Yue Er's savior, she would give her life to him, not to ntion when he asks under such circumstances.
"If I recall correctly, when you were on West Island, Yue Er, besides doing so foolish things, you actually had real skills, right?"
Yue Er had confessed to Tang Rao before, speaking of her situation. She thought given her status, even though she talked about it back then, Tang Rao wouldn't care. Now that he asks, surely, he needs Yue Er's help in this regard?
"Master, at that ti Yue Er was immature, made many mistakes, but Yue Er swears to the heavens, long gone are any other thoughts, I beg the master to discern clearly."
Tang Rao nodded, he believed Yue Er's words.
Under his beauty trap, he believed the words of won, for he had imnse confidence in himself.
"Relax, I just think you doing odd jobs by my side is truly a waste of your talent. If you're willing, you can be like the other won in the Mountain Gate, doing what you like. Of course, whatever you do, I will support you. But personally, I still hope you can help , help expand the Mountain Gate."
What a grand goal indeed, after Tang Rao said so, Yue Er, who was completely brainwashed, really beca interested in Tang Rao's words.
No, it wasn't interest, it was an imnse desire to help Tang Rao, to beco a competent hand under Tang Rao.
"Can I really? I can also be like them?"
But when Yue Er first ca to the Mountain Gate, Tang Rao had warned her not to overthink. Yue Er thought she had long decided to wholeheartedly serve Tang Rao, just being a loyal maid by his side. She never thought that after following Tang Rao all these years, such an opportunity would co.
"Opportunity only cos once. Think it over and tell if you want to seize it. If not, you can still stay by my side, just like now."
Tang Rao intended to give Yue Er three days to decide and tell him the result. However, before he could finish, Yue Er eagerly nodded, wishing she could swear to Tang Rao imdiately.
"I'm willing, I'm willing!"
After Tang Rao shared his thoughts with Yue Er, she was so shocked her mouth wouldn't close. Initially, she thought what Tang Rao offered was just an ordinary blessing; actually, no, if Tang Rao didn't truly consider Yue Er as his own, he wouldn't entrust Yue Er with a life-or-death task.
There, people are prospering, while on the other side, so are far from happy.
The Second Son of Yan Family smashed everything in the room that could be smashed, leaving only the large items he couldn't find a way to vent on before stopping.
"Young Master, calm down. Since the matter is set, there's no need for us to delve too deeply. Next, we should think about how to deal with Tang Rao!"
Beside the Second Son of Yan Family stood a man with half a ruined face, trembling as he stood there. He couldn't stay, nor could he leave, only waiting for the Second Son to cool down before cautiously speaking their mind.
"Shut your mouth, what's the use of those worthless words now?"
Just one look from the Second Son of Yan Family sent the man with a half-ruined face into a panic.
He never forgets how his face was ruined, nor the poisonous insect's tornt on his body, nor his family...
Had he not been controlled by the Second Son of Yan Family with close kin, he wouldn't have followed him for years, and despite having hatred in his heart, he wouldn't dare seek vengeance.
Moreover, he must be willing to help the Second Son sche, being his strategist.
"Co here!"
Just as the man thought he had said sothing wrong, preparing to accept punishnt, the Second Son spoke.
With his face laid bare in his house, unrevealed in disguise, that face bared before the man, several tis he wanted to dodge its gaze, but under the Second Son's pressure, he chose to face it directly.
The mont he was called, the man ca hurriedly.
"Young Master!"
He prostrated before the Second Son, body closely pressed against the ground—a loyalty forged under prolonged oppression.
"You ntioned dealing with Tang Rao, now tell what's your plan?"
The Second Son of Yan Family was infuriated; he failed several tis using poisonous insects, sent many poisoned individuals against Tang Rao, yet the result was not Tang Rao's misfortune, but the disappearance of his poisoned people. He could devise plans, but what plans could he devise now?
If not for the lack of handy personnel, he would have dealt with the man during his futile suggestions of scheming.
However, for the man, execution could be spared—for now at least—but living punishnt was inevitable, his existence must render value to the Second Son.
"Replying to Young Master, I do have a plan, not knowing if Young Master will adopt it."
Due to the Second Son's poisonous insect control, any disloyalty would subject the man to tornt, hence his words were never doubted by the Second Son.
The Second Son didn't speak imdiately, waiting for the next part.
"Young Master once ntioned that on North Island, the only person who knows about poisonous insect poison is the Northern Island Master's daughter, Bei Lin. As far as I know, Bei Lin has now married Tang Rao, becoming his woman. Maybe Tang Rao doesn't know our recent actions, but Bei Lin surely does. If we first control Bei Lin by force, bring her to East Island, and if Tang Rao truly loves Bei Lin, he will surely co to East Island to rescue her. On our turf, wouldn't Young Master have no fear of him being caught?"
The Second Son of Yan Family knew about Tang Rao; in his eyes, Tang Rao was a man without weaknesses. He once abandoned the won beside him; as for Tang Rao having so many won, would a newly married Bei Lin truly beco Tang Rao's soft spot?
Don't forget Bei Lin entered Tang Rao's house as his savior. To say marrying was for love, it might as well be a repaynt.
