Chapter 282: Find Him

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation  Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Shen Xiaoxiao had been calculating. Looking at An Ning’s current state, she really did not know what exactly An Ning was up to. But was she really going to make her take off her clothes? In her dreams!

“Please let me go, Miss. I’m just a cook!” Shen Xiaoxiao hurriedly gestured in sign language.

“Let you go? How is that possible? I wouldn’t have done it if it wasn’t for the cook. The cook is a mute. When a mute plays, it’s the most exciting.”

“Fourth Young Miss, please show mercy. Tomorrow morning, I still have to send Eldest Young Miss her betrothed breakfast. Fourth Young Miss, please let me off.”

“Send Ouyang Le breakfast? Hmph, this Ouyang Le’s mouth is really something. She actually wants to eat in Second Grandfather’s kitchen.”

An Ning, this brainless woman, only needed a little provocation to be able to immediately turn her attention to other things.

“Miss Le said that she wanted to give filial piety to the Old Master and Eldest Young Master and Eldest Madam. I heard that the marriage has been settled!”

“What do you mean settled? You cook, don’t talk nonsense or I’ll blind your eyes and make you deaf and mute!”

“This servant doesn’t dare to talk nonsense. The marriage was personally said by Eldest Madam.”

Shen Xiaoxiao’s words made An Ning’s heart skip a beat. Her purpose of coming here tonight was to tell Ouyang Tian that she could not let Ouyang Le and Yan Kuan get married. Yan Kuan was hers.

But now, listening to the cook’s words, it seemed that even the servants knew about the marriage?

This was not possible. Grandpa had to be persuaded. Yan Kuan could not be given to Ouyang Le. What should she do now? What should she do?

She had it. Eavesdropping. As long as she knew whether they were discussing this matter now, she would have a chance to flip the cards before Grandpa made the decision.

But the butler was there, so there was no chance to eavesdrop. No, she could eavesdrop from the small mechanism next door.

An Ning thought of this and said to Shen Xiaoxiao, “Go wait in the room outside. I’ll deal with you later.”

Shen Xiaoxiao was delighted when she heard this and hurriedly retreated. Ouyang Ning, this idiot, was definitely going to eavesdrop or something else.

Sure enough, Shen Xiaoxiao slowly retreated and looked out of the corner of her eye to see what An Ning was going to do.

She saw An Ning quietly walk behind the green gauze cabinet in the ear room and slowly move the painting on the wall a little. However, she probably did not expect that there was a hidden mechanism behind the painting. An arrow suddenly shot out and directly pierced into An Ning’s shoulder. Shen Xiaoxiao took big steps forward and grabbed An Ning’s mouth with one hand. With the other hand, An Ning fainted on the ground.

This time, it would be effortless.

Shen Xiaoxiao walked straight to the door of the bedroom and took out gloves from her pocket. After carefully putting them on, she slowly walked to the side of the bed. When she saw the vase placed on the bedside, she gently twisted it. A faint cracking sound could be heard. The bookcase had indeed opened from the inside.

A black passageway instantly appeared in front of her. Shen Xiaoxiao took the flashlight that she had prepared earlier and slowly walked down.

Good heavens, this place was really deep. Shen Xiaoxiao remembered that Dark 1 had said that there would only be three forks after walking down more than 20 flights of stairs. They had to take the one on the left.

Of course, they had to be careful when choosing. Every single stone slab was a trap. They had to remember not to touch it.

Shen Xiaoxiao followed Dark 1’s instructions and slowly walked forward. She was now more and more curious about how Dark 1 managed to find such a strange and dangerous place without being discovered.

It seemed that she would have to ask Dark 1 about it after she left.

She had to be careful after she finished walking on the stone tablet because there would be guards guarding it at this time, and there would be one every one meter. At this time, she would need to use knockout powder.

Shen Xiaoxiao took out the knockout powder from her bracelet, put on a simple mask, and sprinkled it outside. After hearing a few muffled sounds, she slowly continued walking forward.

This time, a room with a closed iron door appeared in front of her. Shen Xiaoxiao’s heart became more and more nervous, more and more anxious. Could Yan Kuan be inside? Could it be?

She slowly walked over. There were some iron bars on the iron door. She tiptoed and secretly looked inside. It was him. It was Yan Kuan. It was really Yan Kuan.

He lay there motionlessly. There were all kinds of instruments inserted around him. Shen Xiaoxiao was getting more and more anxious. ‘Yan Kuan, Yan Kuan, wake up, wake up, wake up!’

Shen Xiaoxiao was getting more and more anxious. She lowered her body and took out a bunch of keys from the perspiration beside her. She hurriedly opened the door and walked in.

With every step she took, her heart would jump out of her chest. This was indeed the place in her dream. It was pitch-black all around. Other than the bedside, there were all kinds of instruments inserted into his body. It made Shen Xiaoxiao’s heart ache.

“Bastard, why are you sleeping here? What’s wrong with you? What’s wrong with you? Wake up. Wake up, okay?”

“I’m Xiaoxiao, I’m your little thing. Why are you ignoring me? Wake up, wake up.”

Shen Xiaoxiao’s screams tore her lungs apart, but Yan Kuan still had no reaction at all. What should she do? What should she do?

He lay there quietly. The warmth from his palm allowed her to retain the last bit of rationality. However, to a man like Yan Kuan who was half-dead and living without a sound was actually the greatest torment. Perhaps he would rather die with a knife than be treated as a test subject like this!

His fingernails had grown a lot longer, and the thin calluses on his palm were still biting people. Shen Xiaoxiao looked at the finger that was still on his finger. She turned it around, but it was useless. It did not move at all. There were even signs of a pull injury around his finger. As expected, those people had already had designs on this ring.

“Yan Kuan, wake up. If you don’t wake up soon, your Dark Empire will be occupied by others. If you don’t wake up soon, you will…”

“You will not be able to see the sun tomorrow. Shen Xiaoxiao, is that what you mean?”

Suddenly, an aged voice came from the door. Then, she heard the iron door being locked tightly with a ‘kacha’ sound. She and Yan Kuan were locked in this dark room that was less than ten square meters.

Ouyang Tian had actually found her so quickly. What was going on? Where was Dark 1?

Shen Xiaoxiao looked out from the iron railing at the door. Not only was Ouyang Tian standing there, but Dark 1 was also standing behind Ouyang Tian!

Shen Xiaoxiao’s heart tightened. Dark 1 had betrayed her. Dark 1 had betrayed her. Why did he do that? Didn’t the secret guards protect their Master with their lives? Especially Dark 1. He had grown up with Yan Kuan! If he had betrayed her, wasn’t that the same as betraying Yan Kuan? Dark 1 knew that she was pregnant. Was he crazy to stand there like this?

“Dark 1, you actually betrayed me!” Shen Xiaoxiao’s eyes glared at Dark 1 like fire. Even though the surroundings were pitch-black before, it seemed as though they could see through the darkness and see the burning hatred in her bright eyes. Perhaps at this moment, not only Dark 1, but even Ouyang Tian felt that if Shen Xiaoxiao was in front of him, she would probably even have the intention to kill Dark 1!

“This is no longer your Dark 1. He is already the commander of the Ouyang family’s guards….”
