Chapter 671: His Own Choice

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Shen Xiaoxiao turned her head after taking a glance at Long Xi. It was obvious that she did not want to interact with this man. No, she should treat this man as air.

“Hey, what kind of attitude do you have? How dare you treat our boss like this?”

Long Xi’s new underling did not seem to know the rules at all. However, Long Xi did not need him to scold Shen Xiaoxiao at all. Long Xi frowned and said directly, “If you don’t know the rules, drag him down and deal with him. He even dares to offend Boss Shen?”

Many people didn’t know how ruthless Long Xi was, but people of their level definitely knew. Darke had heard about it too, but he had to deal with him just because of one sentence. This was really extraordinary ruthlessness.

Huang Yueyan also frowned. He was really no different from Yan Kuan. He was too ruthless.

“No, please spare my life, Boss Shen. I’m sorry, I’m really sorry.”

“It’s not easy to learn how to be a tutor. Your boss wants to deal with you, not me. Of course, if my men don’t know the rules, I will punish them too.”

Shen Xiaoxiao’s words had a hidden meaning. Darke trembled and broke out in cold sweat. She was talking to him. He was from the Dark Empire, but now he was taking advantage of the Dark Empire’s division of territory to fish in troubled waters.

He would have liked to have been assigned to Long Xi’s side, but it just so happened that he was on Shen Xiaoxiao’s side. This was not going to be easy.

It was highly likely that he would die here today. Long Xi had just reached an agreement with him, so he did not know if Long Xi would save him.

“Boss, I…”

“So Darke and Boss Long are so familiar with each other. From the looks of it, the two of you have known each other for a long time.”

“This, this, this, Boss Long, Boss Long’s visit this time is a little, a little…”

Long Xi saw that Darke was so frightened in front of Shen Xiaoxiao that he couldn’t even speak clearly. He even wanted to put him aside. How could the things that he, Long Xi, had planned, be ruined like this? Of course it couldn’t.

Therefore, Long Xi directly followed Darke’s words and said to Shen Xiaoxiao, “Boss Shen, there’s no need to be angry. Darke and I have only discussed a business deal.”

Shen Xiaoxiao looked at Long Xi. Of course, she had no choice but to look at him. He had interrupted her and was trying to take responsibility for the matter. Why was Darke so indispensable? Long Xi’s appetite was really big.

“Discuss a business deal? I just don’t know what business deal Darke and Boss Long have to discuss. After all, our shop at No. 1 Treasure Road has always been doing legitimate business. Oh, look at my memory. Just now, Boss Long said to discuss a business deal with Darke, not No. 1 Treasure Road. It’s my misunderstanding.”

“Darke, since Boss Long wants to talk about business with you, it seems that you two have a very good personal relationship. It seems that I’ve been meddling in this matter. Sorry to have disturbed you.”

“No, no, no, Boss. No, we don’t have a very good personal relationship, nor do we want to put No. 1 Treasure Road aside. We’re just here to have some fun. Boss Long is here to have fun at our shop. Really, I’m just doing my duty as a host.”

How could Darke not know what Shen Xiaoxiao’s hidden meaning was? Once he admitted that he was on good terms with Long Xi or that he was doing business on his own and that it had nothing to do with No. 1 Treasure Road, then he would be expelled from the Dark Empire. It had nothing to do with No. 1 Treasure Road.

How could he not be scared?

Naturally, Long Xi understood Shen Xiaoxiao’s words as well. He felt a little uncomfortable. It was not only because of Darke’s haste to clear his name, but also because of his own abilities. How could he be easily outdone by a woman?

Although this woman was Shen Xiaoxiao, as his territory grew larger and larger, and as his ambitions grew larger, he wanted to stand on Shen Xiaoxiao’s head and wait for her to beg him, or he wanted her to submit to him.

Therefore, such a contradictory feeling made him extremely uncomfortable.

“Darke, why do you have to clear your name so cleanly? Boss Shen is not the kind of person who is unsympathetic. Working with me will benefit both parties. Why do you have to be so unreasonable, Boss Shen?”

Shen Xiaoxiao glanced at Darke. She was not in a hurry and asked Darke directly, “Did you hear that? Boss Long said that you want to cooperate?”

“I, I, I…”

Darke glanced at Shen Xiaoxiao and then sneaked a glance at Long Xi. He compared the two in his heart. who was the most advantageous? Obviously, he was not afraid that someone would come to provoke and bully them. However, Shen Xiaoxiao and the others did not allowed them to touch poison. In the past, they would only look at it. Even so, the profits were still considerable. How could he let go of such a big temptation?

Moreover, he was cooperating with Long Xi and the others this time. The profits were even more. He could not bear to do so. He really could not bear to do so.

Darke was in a difficult position, but Shen Xiaoxiao would not sympathize at all. She continued to ask Darke, “Why don’t you ask your brothers if they want to continue working with Boss Long? Or do you want to do business peacefully?”

Darke did not expect Shen Xiaoxiao to actually want to make his own choice? What exactly did this mean?

But since Shen Xiaoxiao had said so, then she must be serious. Darke glanced at Cang Long behind him. Cang Long had followed Darke for many years. When he saw that his boss was in trouble, he would naturally help. Moreover, it was towards Shen Xiaoxiao… Cang Long was not familiar with her at all. If not for his boss being so afraid, he would not have been afraid of such a petite little woman.

To him, what he was more familiar with was Long Xi.

Therefore, when Darke needed to make a choice, Cang Long, who had always understood Darke very well, instantly understood what Darke meant. If he really wanted to continue following Shen Xiaoxiao, he would have rejected Long Xi immediately. However, at this moment, he was being vague… Wasn’t it obvious that he didn’t want to speak up so as to avoid falling under judgement? Therefore, these words could only be spoken by his underlings.

“Two bosses, we brothers want to earn more money. Our boss has been kind to us. He has raised so many brothers, so he wants to look for more projects.”

These words were spoken in a very reserved manner. Of course, it was also said very well. There were too many brothers and they couldn’t feed them. Naturally, they had to do other projects.

Darke heaved a sigh of relief. Cang Long really understood his intentions.

Shen Xiaoxiao looked at Darke’s silent expression and understood. However, she turned to look at the Eel and asked, “What about you, eel? How do you choose?”

Eel didn’t expect Shen Xiaoxiao to ask him. He looked at Shen Xiaoxiao and then at Darke, who had been secretly giving him a look. At this moment, Eel’s heart was about to jump out of his chest. He was nervous and afraid. However, hadn’t he always made a choice? At this moment, he was only making this choice on the surface. Therefore, Eel took a deep breath and said to Shen Xiaoxiao:

“Your subordinate feels that it’s better to be a cleaner person.”

Shen Xiaoxiao smiled. This kid was indeed different.

“In that case, there’s no need for the existence of No. 1 Treasure Road.”

With a light sentence, Darke fell to the ground in shock. This… This…. Boss Shen was going to destroy the entire No. 1 Treasure Road? Was that really the case?
