Chapter 1523: I Have an Idea

“So Dad, this time you …” Wang Xiaoyan raised her head anxiously with worry-filled eyes after listening to her father’s words. As an assassin, she naturally understood the importance of firearms to an assassin family despite not residing in the Butterfly Family for many years. In particular, it was not just a matter of money for those special firearms that had a limited supply!

Once these firearms were lost, how could the Butterfly Family still retain its position in the world of assassins? It would not be long before they deteriorate to a subclass family.

“I’m afraid that Lancer Family will not go back on their decision this time around,” Wang Songshan smiled bitterly. “But even then, I will not compromise. You have suffered too much for years. I will not use you as a chip to negotiate for the revitalization of our family. ”

“I’m sorry …” Although what happened to the family this time seemed to have nothing to do with her, Wang Xiaoyan knew that she was closely related to the problem! In fact, Goode was aiming for Wang Xiaoyan. Goode would not cross the Butterfly Family if not for her existence.

“Yanyan, what does this have to do with you?” Wang Songshan waved his hands and said boldly, “You are a part of the Butterfly Family. If I am not able to protect you, the responsibility would be mine as a father. What does it have to do with you?”

Wang Xiaoyan nodded silently. She didn’t agree fully with her father’s words. After all, behind an able man always exist other able men. The Butterfly Family was not the most powerful to exist. Once they met the Lancer family, an opponent so powerful that even her father could not go against, it was no longer a personal responsibility.

“Dad, isn’t our current problem just a matter of firearms?” Wang Xiaoyan suddenly thought of an idea as she remembered something.

“It’s just a matter of firearms… but isn’t that enough of a problem?” Wang Songshan couldn’t help but feel a little dumbstruck after hearing what his daughter said. By the tone of his daughter’s words, was this matter that resulted in them being inhibited by the Lancer family not enough of a problem?

“If it is merely a problem of firearms, I think I should be able to solve this nuisance for the family!” Wang Xiaoyan paused. She had used the word ‘should’ instead of an affirmative tone because even she did not dare to be a hundred percent sure!

Even then, she still had some confidence! The person she had suddenly thought of was Yang Ming. Originally, the combination of her and Yang Ming was quite strange. They were only together because it was mutually beneficial, and their relationship was only of a cooperative nature.

However, with the development of later events, they both started to fall in love. Moreover, Wang Xiaoyan had witnessed Yang Ming’s tremendous power over and over again! No matter if it was the Kars family incident or the experiences during the travel from Vietnam to Africa, it showed that Yang Ming was not an ordinary person!

Wang Xiaoyan had been with Yang Ming especially during those days at Country X in Africa. She clearly understood the capability of Yang Ming’s disciple, Old Buffon!

This person could even assemble armored vehicles, bazookas, and aircraft cannons. The small number of special firearms that her family needed should be next to nothing for him. Not to exaggerate, this person could probably obtain even missiles!

Wang Xiaoyan would not have dared to brag about this at all had she not known the special relationship between Old Buffon and Yang Ming. But after living with Yang Ming at Old Buffon’s house for a while, she was very clear on Old Buffon’s heartfelt respect towards Yang Ming. Old Buffon was even very respectful towards her since she was his master’s significant other!

Therefore, she believed that as long as Yang Ming requested… or even if he was not there, Old Buffon would still give her face. If she spoke to Old Buffon about this matter, the firearms problem plaguing her family would not be much of an issue at all.

It was only because of this that Wang Xiaoyan dared to boast in front of her father.

“Yanyan, are you joking?” Wang Songshan glanced at his daughter incredulously. It was not to say that he suspected his daughter of lying, but Wang Xiaoyan’s words were too shocking. The situation that he had racked his brains over, something that made even Fang Tian helpless, could be solved by his daughter? Also, judging from her expression, she seemed to have a lot of confidence in her claim. What on earth was going on?

“Dad, how could I joke about this?” Wang Xiaoyan looked at her father and instantly realized that he didn’t fully believe her words. Smiling bitterly, she continued, “I mean, actually… my boyfriend, he might be able to solve this! ”

Wang Xiaoyan had no other option besides mentioning Yang Ming. However, she remembered that her aunt may not know who Yang Ming was. She was also afraid of troublesome explanations, so she used the term “boyfriend” directly.

“Yang … oh? Can he solve it?” Wang Songshan almost blurted out the name “Yang Ming” before remembering that Wang Ruoshui was still by his side and mentioning Yang Ming’s name would obviously make her doubtful.

Although Wang Songshan was unsure that Wang Ruoshui remembered Yang Ming’s name, he didn’t want to take any risks He would just hide this from Wang Ruoshui for the time being. It was not that he deliberately hid this matter from Wang Ruoshui, but rather he and Fang Tian were too embarrassed to explain it. If Wang Ruoshui knew that he and Fang Tian had not acted their age and had made things difficult for the younger generation, she would surely despise them!

Thus, even if he planned to explain, it would be at a more suitable time with a less direct explanation. Being straightforward would only increase the embarrassment.

“It should be possible as he has a wide network of connections…” Wang Xiaoyan nodded with firm eyes as she was convinced that this matter should not be too troublesome for Yang Ming.

Wang Xiaoyan was very confident in Old Buffon after seeing the firearms he had once assembled.

“Can he do it?” Although Wang Songshan had no further questions, it seemed that he didn’t actually believe it. He saw the trust that his daughter had in Yang Ming as the blind worship that a woman in love has for her man.

What can Yang Ming do? Even his master Fang Tian is powerless over this matter, let alone Yang Ming… If Fang Tian isn’t involved, the solution would probably be nothing more than relying on the relationship with the Charles Family. However, as I had previously asked Yang Ming, how can the Charles family get a larger quota on firearms?

“I believe in him,” Wang Xiaoyan nodded firmly. “He must have a way!”

“What boyfriend?” Wang Ruoshui was confused after hearing this. She finally couldn’t help but ask, “Little Butterfly, do you have a boyfriend?”

“What? My dad didn’t tell you?” Wang Xiaoyan was baffled. Could it be because of this emergency incident with Goode that Father hadn’t told my aunt about Yang Ming yet?

Wang Ruoshui shook her head in denial, “No. Since when do you have a boyfriend? What the hell is going on? Didn’t you come home this time for the engagement?”

Previously, Wang Ruoshui had already felt a little confused when she heard Wang Songshan’s remarks because he had also mentioned breaking the engagement and something about taking a step back. However, Wang Ruoshui had thought that she didn’t hear it clearly and hadn’t pried into it. However, at this moment, she suddenly became surprised after listening to her niece speaking those words clearly again.

“Engagement?” Wang Xiaoyan looked at her father in doubt. She heaved a sigh of relief seeing that her father’s expression remained normal. She was afraid that her father would lie about f breaking the engagement, and instead plan to make her engaged!

But when she saw that her father lacked a dodgy expression n, Wang Xiaoyan knew that he hadn’t had the time to explain to her aunt. It must have been because of her family’s troubles with Goode and the Lancer Family.

“Actually auntie, I already have a boyfriend outside. This time, I came in the name of being engaged, but I actually intend to break off the engagement!” Wang Xiaoyan explained.

“What? Break off the engagement?” Wang Ruoshui suddenly felt speechless. Does my niece have this intention too? Wasn’t I forcing old brat Fang Tian’s disciple for the engagement previously? Was I doing more than required?

Am I merely being nosy? Since both of them want to cancel the engagement, why am I stopping them? With this thought, Wang Ruoshui could not help but look up and glare at Wang Songshan. He should be aware of this already, so why didn’t he tell me? Isn’t it embarrassing that I forced that apprentice of Fang Tian to duel with me?

Chapter 1524: The Truth Behind the Misunderstanding

“Yeah, I already discussed it with Dad, and he also agreed to my choice. So this time I came home to break off the engagement.” Wang Xiaoyan explained further seeing that her father didn’t object, “Dad already told me that this marriage was decided by the elders and that both parties are very famous families in the assassin world. Hence, it will not be appropriate to cancel the engagement regardless of which party proposes to do so. We would become a laughing stock. So, Dad intended to summon both the King of Assassin’s apprentice and me to meet each other and let us talk about this. Then, we could tell the public that both of us felt that the marriage is unsuitable, and no one would say anything. ”

“I see…” Wang Ruoshui nodded. Wang Xiaoyan’s words make sense, but why didn’t Wang Songshan tell me beforehand? He even let me make a fool of myself.

No wonder the boy had repeatedly claimed that he came to break off the engagement. Apparently, it had already been decided. It seems that my niece did not intend otherwise. Forcing it to happen would be of little value.

“Ruoshui, Fang Tian and I were too excited at your arrival yesterday and didn’t have time to tell you about this.” Wang Songshan finally spoke up after thinking for a long time, “Then the Goode incident happened, and you know what happened afterward. We were all worried about this and didn’t have the thought to think about Yanyan’s matter. ”

“That is quite true!” Wang Ruoshui was relieved after listening to Wang Songshan’s explanation. His explanation was reasonable! Never mind him, didn’t she herself put aside the idea of ??competing with Yang Ming for the time being when she saw him this morning?

With the family at stake, how could there be thoughts about handling other things? Wang Ruoshui didn’t blame Wang Songshan and merely smiled after thinking of this. It seems that I have to explain to the kid.

“How about this? Yanyan, we will put your proposed method on hold for a while. If it doesn’t work, then we’ll use the power of your little boyfriend?” Wang Songshan hesitated and said.

Although Wang Songshan didn’t think in his heart that Yang Ming had any other methods, Wang Xiaoyan had good intentions. He feared that Wang Xiaoyan would feel displeased in her heart if he refused it directly.

“Fine then …” Wang Xiaoyan was obviously a little dissatisfied with her father’s words. It seemed that her father still didn’t believe in Yang Ming’s ability, which made Wang Xiaoyan, who adores Yang Ming infinitely, feel a little sad. However, Wang Xiaoyan no longer insisted on it since her Father had said so. Anyway, the impact on the Butterfly Family would not be great so soon. The impact of the Lancer Family’s actions on the Butterfly Family was in the long-term; it would not be devastating immediately. So, it is not too late to wait for Dad to seek help from Yang Ming in case he really runs out of ideas.

As an elder, Dad would feel embarrassed if he asked Yang Ming for help. It would also indirectly prove that his vision is not that good and is less than mine, right?

This was exactly what Wang Xiaoyan had overlooked. Although Wang Songshan was an elder, the main reason he didn’t ask Wang Xiaoyan to help was that he had already asked Yang Ming about requesting the Charles family for help. Yang Ming had already made it clear back then, and Wang Songshan also understood the pros and cons of this matter. He naturally did not think that Yang Ming had deceived him. After all, he was an assassin family master. He knew that there was a limited supply of firearms in almost every family. It was impossible to have unlimited purchases.

So he stopped hoping for it after Yang Ming denied his proposal. He didn’t know that the Charles family was just one of Yang Ming’s many trump cards. Even if Yang Ming didn’t have Old Buffon’s family as one of his chips, he could still force the Lancer Family to change their mind!

The Great Assassin Yang was different from the Butterfly Family’s assassins. Others might be helpless under the strict security of the Lancer family, but the Great Assassin Yang had special abilities. Avoiding those guards and taking Thomas’ life would not be easy, but it would not be impossible!

In the face of a guy so powerful like the Great Assassin Yang, Thomas had to let go even if he was reluctant! The only options were either to promise or die. There was no way to sway the Great Assassin Yang. If Yang Ming could infiltrate once, naturally he could infiltrate a second time. By then, if the Great Assassin Yang found out that he was fooled, Thomas’s end was likely coming!

The Great Assassin Yang was so fearless due to his strength. In the face of absolute power, there was no room to counterattack even for a behemoth like the Lancer family.

Although Wang Xiaoyan was dissatisfied with her father’s attitude of looking down at Yang Ming, she had no choice but to exit the study and proceed to her room because of her father’s words.

Wang Ruoshui frowned, glaring at Wang Songshan after Wang Xiaoyan left, “Brother, what do you and Fang Tian mean? Why didn’t you tell me about the cancellation of the engagement? I tried to force the kid to marry Little Butterfly yesterday. Aren’t you making a fool out of me? ”

“Well…” Wang Songshan smiled bitterly. Of course, it didn’t end there. Just now Wang Ruoshui didn’t get angry on the spot because Wang Xiaoyan was there, but as soon as Wang Xiaoyan left, Wang Ruoshui could no longer contain her anger.

“What is this? Don’t give me excuses that you were all very excited or that Goode came by to evade me!” Wang Ruoshui interrupted Wang Songshan’s words directly, “Brother, are you hiding anything from me?”

It is undeniable that the sixth sense of a woman is very accurate. Wang Ruoshui was keenly aware of it although Wang Songshan had not said anything.

Wang Songshan couldn’t help but sigh when he saw that Wang Ruoshui had already guessed something. It seemed that this matter could no longer be concealed. Even if he didn’t say it, Wang Ruoshui would ask Fang Tian and he would definitely say something! Wang Songshan could be one hundred percent sure of that!

Fang Tian was not a big-mouthed person. On the contrary, he practiced the principle of confidentiality greatly as a professional assassin. But that also depended on the person. If it was his sister who asked Fang Tian, ??Fang Tian would tell every single thing!

Wang Songshan was well aware of the old fellow’s feelings towards Wang Ruoshui, so it was impossible to count on Fang Tian to keep it secret in front of her.

Rather than allowing Fang Tian to tell Wang Ruoshui, it was better to tell her himself! Otherwise, it could not be guaranteed that Wang Ruoshui wouldn’t come to find trouble with him when she found out the truth from Fang Tian. He’d rather be honest to avoid that.

“Ruoshui, did you notice something?” Wang Songshan asked after hesitating.

“Isn’t this nonsense? If I didn’t see something, why would I ask you?” Wang Ruoshui rolled her eyes at Wang Songshan. “Brother, why do I find you stuttering? Can’t you just tell me directly? ”

“It’s not that I’m hesitant. It’s just that …” Wang Songshan blushed. “It’s a bit shameful to say it!”

“Shameful? What do you mean?” Wang Ruoshui frowned as soon as she heard the words. “You haven’t done anything disgraceful, have you?”

“It’s not disgraceful, it’s just a little… a little… Haha, I just wanted to play a joke with Little Butterfly and them…” Wang Songshan gave an awkward laugh.

“Joke? What joke? Is the cancellation a joke? Are you really planning on her getting engaged?” Wang Ruoshui asked, frowning.

“A bit like that …” Wang Songshan nodded. Since Wang Ruoshui had guessed it, he didn’t bother to hide it.

“What? You lied to Little Butterfly?” Wang Ruoshui was a little displeased at once. “Looking at the situation now, Little Butterfly obviously has feelings for her boyfriend. Are you trying to break them up?”

Wang Ruoshui was the one who forced Wang Xiaoyan to marry before, but now she was also the one who opposed it! Women are always fickle. Not for anything else, but for the happiness of her own niece! Since her niece already had a sweetheart, she would only give her full support. How could she destroy it?

Wang Ruoshui immediately misunderstood after listening to Wang Songshan’s words and became unhappy at once.

“I’m not breaking them up!” Wang Songshan waved his hands quickly in denial. “Ruoshui, you misunderstood!”

“Misunderstood? Where did I get it wrong?” Wang Ruoshui asked. “Isn’t it you who admitted that this is not a cancellation, but an engagement?”

“I’ll admit that it is not a cancellation but an engagement. That is true, but the other party of the engagement this time is Yanyan’s boyfriend!” Wang Songshan quickly explained as he was afraid of facing Wang Ruoshui’s wrath.
