Chapter 294: Banquet (1)
Even so." Xiao Han smiled cynically. He was sure that such a great price and such generous conditions would never give up easily. Although this condition was too excessive, it was reasonable.
With so many conditions, only by doing can you see the benefits. This one is visible. Since you need to cooperate, trust is essential. Equal voice is not given by others, but earned by one's own strength.
Bai Mudan's face was gloomy. She knew that marriage was one of the common conditions between the cooperation between two forces, and some would take it very seriously. It can be said that this was the beginning of mutual trust.
Pure interest relationships cannot last forever. Sometimes family affection will last longer and can continue to the next generation.
The conditions proposed by Xiao Han were not too much. He knew very well in his heart that if Bai Mudan did not agree to this condition, although it did not mean her sincerity today, at least it meant that this woman was just using herself from the beginning!
For someone who uses others, don’t blame others for using you too!
After being silent for nearly a cup of tea, Bai Mudan seemed to have made a decision and looked up and said, "If you swear to the sky, you will be well with Hongxiu, I can agree to this marriage!"
"Of course, since I am my marquis' woman, it's too late to take care of me!" Xiao Han smiled.
"The marriage matter is kept confidential, I don't want anyone to know now." Bai Mudan said.
"When will it be made public?" Xiao Han asked.
"After the five elders of the new land are elected, no matter what achievements you can achieve in the five elders' recommendation, your marriage will be made public. But if you die or are disabled before this, this marriage will be invalid!" Bai Mudan said decisively.
"This is natural. But before this, I hope President Hongxiu can live in the Marquis' Mansion." Xiao Han nodded.
"Xiao Han. Don't go too far!" Bai Mudan said angrily.
"President Hongxiu lives in the mansion as a guest of this marquis. What's wrong with this? Does the wife think this marquis is that despicable and vulgar person?" Xiao Han said in a deep voice.
I still think it's. You are just that. But Bai Mudan choked her throat and swallowed her cold eyes at Xiao Han.
In terms of words, she is definitely not the opponent of the honest young man in front of her.
"Yes, but I hope the Marquis remembers what you said." Bai Mudan suppressed her anger and did not erupt.
"I will do what I say. I will not provoke Chairman Hongxiu, but if Hongxiu takes the initiative to provoke Chairman Hongxiu, then..." Xiao Han said seriously.
"Xiao Han, you..." Bai Mudan was so angry that she trembled all over. Today, she heard more shameless words than she had heard in the past five hundred years. Once upon a time, the king of black under the command of the five old five old Nanfang Wei Lao had suffered such humiliation?
"I can also be called a romantic and elegant man. There are not a thousand or eight hundred girls like this. If the boss Hongxiu likes me, it is important to me. If there is a situation where I can't control it, I have to make it clear!" Xiao Han said in a narcissistic manner, but he didn't see Bai Mudan staring with a horrifying gaze, hoping to strangle him into pieces with his eyes.
"Mr. Xiao, you can't be too shameless!" Bai Mudan's face turned from red to white, then turned ashen, her fists were clenched, and her nails were almost pinching her palms.
"I am just predicting what may happen. Then there is a statement. If this happens, what should the lady say to do?" Xiao Han asked back.
"If this is the case, you can do whatever you want!" Bai Mudan blurted out in anger.
Regret, there is no medicine for regret in this world, even though Bai Mudan feels regretted as soon as she is released.
She said the words, it was impossible to take them back. Will the opponent let her go easily if he is so cunning?
"Thank you, Madam." Xiao Hanna bowed deeply, and Bai Mudan's scalp was numb. Her obviously malicious eyes made her have the idea of running away immediately, and she hoped that she would never appear in front of him again.
"What do you want to do, don't do it randomly!"
If Bai Mudan's pitiful appearance was seen by hundreds of masters under her, she would definitely be squirting blood three liters. Is this still the majestic and powerful king in black?
"I don't know much about the future. Just consider an agreement between me and my wife." Xiao Han smiled and said.
"What agreement?"
"When the time comes, my wife will know that maybe this agreement will be useless at all?"
"Hmph!" Bai Mudan snorted coldly, her inner dissatisfaction with Xiao Han had reached its peak, but this man not only took advantage of him, but also forced her to give her daughter to him. I really don't know how to face Hongxiu after going out!
With a gentle whip, Bai Mudan suddenly felt the imprisoned energy in her body coming back. She jumped up and waved her hand to Xiao Han’s face!
The unexpected "bang" sound did not happen, but Bai Mudan was pinched in mid-air by Xiao Han in one hand.
Since Xiao Han has lifted the confinement on Bai Mudan, how could he not beware of her sudden revenge on her after she recovered her strength?
"Madam, you have just recovered your strength, so please adjust it well so as not to fall into something
I am not responsible for the symptoms!" Xiao Han smiled coldly, opened the door, and walked out!
"Xiao Han, you bastard!" Bai Mudan cursed in anger, and she no longer had the demeanor and demeanor of a king in black!
Xiao Han and Bai Mudan stayed in the inner room for nearly an hour. Su Hongxiu and Mei, who were waiting outside the plum blossom hall, were already anxious and stopped walking around, but they did not dare to trespass into the plum blossom hall, for fear that it would be detrimental to Xiao Han if it would anger her!
The door of the plum blossom hall was finally pulled open from the inside by an external force with a "creak" sound. Bai Mudan walked in front with a gloomy face, while Xiao Han followed closely with a smile that had not changed for thousands of years.
"Xiao Han, what did you do to my mother?" Su Hongxiu pointed at Xiao Han and asked loudly when he saw Bai Mudan.
"After a long chat with my wife, I admire each other and had a very happy chat." Xiao Han said with a smile on his lips.
"Yes, my mother can get a good deal with Mr. Xiao." Bai Mudan said against her will.
"Well, why are your face so bad? It must be that bastard who abused you!" Su Hongxiu said angrily.
"Hongxiu, how do you say it? In the future, when your mother is not here, do you know if you have to listen to the Marquis?" Bai Mudan said gritting her teeth.
"What? Mom, do you let me listen to him?" Su Hongxiu pointed at Xiao Han's mouth in surprise and could swallow an ostrich egg, and said incredible.
"Yes, Mom has entrusted you to the Marquis' care. Mom is going to go into seclusion to deal with the five elders' recommendation next year!" Bai Mudan did not lie to Su Hongxiu. She really wanted to go into seclusion, but not immediately.
"Mom, I don't, he is too vulgar and shameless..." Su Hongxiu said with anxious red eyes.
"Madam, don't worry, I will take good care of the boss Hongxiu. When you come out of seclusion, I will definitely give you a white and fat daughter." Xiao Han smiled.
"So, thank you, Marquis!" Bai Mudan said gritting her teeth, and a special accent was added to the word "Thank you".
"Madam, you are polite. This is the place that I should have, let alone that we are a family now." Xiao Han beat the snake and said with a stick, turning a blind eye to Bai Mudan.
"Who is a family with you!" Su Hongxiu said angrily.
"Random, Hongxiu, Marquis is the guardian knight chosen by your mother. From today on, you will listen to him, do you know?" Bai Mudan shouted.
"Madam?" Aunt Mei was shocked. The guardian knight said bluntly, she was her fiancé. This was related to Su Hongxiu's life happiness. Why did the wife just give her casually? She betrothed to a romantic and fickle man like Xiao Han? This was never a lady's style of doing things!
"Mom, why is this happening?" Su Hongxiu was stunned. She didn't expect that a man she hated so much would become her own guardian of the Paladin. The news hit her so hard.
"This is my mother's decision!" Bai Mudan once again stated. Although she was extremely unwilling to do so, she could only say that in front of Xiao Han.
"Mom, I don't want it, I don't want it!" Su Hongxiu threw herself into Bai Mudan's arms and cried loudly.
"Hongxiu, I'm sorry for you, I don't like this man either, but I need him, the Black Club needs her, your aunt Wei needs him, do you understand?" Bai Mudan's eyes were red, and she hugged Su Hongxiu in her arms and comforted her softly.
"Mom, why, why is it him?" Su Hongxiu asked unwillingly.
"The magic paper he and he created has affected the rise and fall of the mainland's forces, and he is strong himself. The order given by your aunt Wei will bring this person to our south no matter how much the price it costs." Bai Mudan whispered in Su Hongxiu's ear.
Xiao Han disdains to eavesdrop on this kind of intimate conversation between mother and daughter, so Bai Mudan naturally told Su Hongxiu some secrets with confidence.
"But, mom..."
"This is just a temporary solution. Even if he wants to get you, he has to wait for the five elders to recommend it. At that time, my mother will help you ask Aunt Wei and ask her to help you terminate the engagement." Bai Mudan said against her will. In fact, she knew that even if she went to ask Mr. Wei personally, the chance of success was almost zero.
She knew which is more important between Xiao Han and Su Hongxiu, how could Mr. Wei not know?
"Mom, is it true?" Su Hongxiu said happily.
"Of course it's true. Mom has never deceived you." Bai Mudan sighed. Mom has never deceived you. This time I lied to you. Hongxiu, don't blame Mom, Mom has no choice but to do this.
Bai Mudan hoped that Xiao Han would be seriously injured or killed directly when the five elders recommended the competition, so that the engagement would not be fulfilled, and everyone would be happy, but now it seems that she no longer has the confidence.
The matter involves the power struggle within the Holy Alliance. If she rejects Xiao Han's conditions today, her life will be difficult tomorrow, and she may even lose everything she has now.
Although there is competition or hostility between the five elders of the five sides, they can control the lower side, which also ensures that while internal power struggles, the strength of the Tongmenghui has steadily increased without any rebellion or division.
