Chapter 208 Seeking out Your Wife to Give Me a Daughter (1/2)

Avril waited for a long while for a response, but she did not get one. She raised her head and was instantly met with the man's amused expression. A strange thought occurred to her, though she tamped it down. ”Is something the matter? This kind of thing should be a piece of cake for you guys, right?”

The man chuckled humorlessly. Then, he shoved Avril to the floor. Avril glared up at him with her hand clutching her waist, fully prepared to unleash her anger. But she saw the man waved his hand. Two subordinates appeared shortly and dragged her towards the door.

”Hey! What do you think you're doing?” Avril yelled out in panic.

The first man followed behind them in an unhurried pace until Avril was dragged all the way into a small alley. Then, he crouched down and patted her cheek. ”I don't know whether you're naive or just plain stupid.”

Avril would really have to be an imbecile if she failed to realize that something had gone horribly wrong by now. ”You guys know each other, don't you?” she said, struggling against the men holding her down. ”I... I was just joking. My family and President Ying are business allies. You guys can't touch me.”

”You have enough balls to try to mess with Miss Xin, and yet here you are, hoping for President Ying to show you mercy.” The man gave another wave of his hand. ”Give her the injection. Then bring a few more men over here.”

His subordinates chuckled lecherously and made a grab for Avril's arm. He was just about to inject the needle into Avril's arm when a voice sounded from the end of the alley. ”What are you guys doing?” A long shadow crept into the narrow confines of the alley. The shadow lengthened until a man appeared before the group. The newcomer glanced around and noted the drug canisters carried by each of the men in the alley. ”Young Master Shen's men?” he said, frowning.

The leader of the group gestured for his men to stand down. ”Yes, we are,” he answered politely. ”May I inquire as to who you are?”

”My last name is Wan,” said the newcomer. Although the newcomer possessed handsome facial features, there was a strange and eerie air about him.

There was a complete change in the leader's demeanor the moment he heard that name. ”Ah, so it's you, Mr. Wan,” the leader said in a subservient tone. ”We'll notify our young master immediately. Shall I prepare the lounge for you?”

”No need. I'm going to see them straight away,” Boss Wan said, turning to leave. Then, he turned back around and added, ”Those are some shitty drugs you got there. I wouldn't recommend using it.”

”Understood!” said the leader of the gang, waving his hand again. All his henchmen stood at attention and watched Boss Wan's departure. One of them whispered to the leader. ”Boss, who's that?”

”Someone like our young master. A total badass,” the leader answered. Then, he flicked his hand at them. ”Come, we gotta hurry up and notify the young master that Boss Wan is here.” The few men left in a hurry. Nobody gave a single damn about Avril who was still haphazardly sprawled on the ground.

Avril staggered to her feet and left the alley hurriedly with a dejected look on her face. She hailed a cab and rode all the way back to her hotel. After a shower, she managed to calm herself down. She sat in front of the mirror, staring stupidly at her own reflection. Then it all came flooding back to her: the fact that she had nearly become a victim of a gang rape tonight. She shuddered at the thought.

”But who's that Boss Wan?” she wondered.

Young Master Shen and the others were engaged in a game of mahjong. More accurately, it was Zhang Mi who had first suggested it and dragged Xin Qing into the game. As to be expected, Young Master Shen joined in as well. With that, they still lacked one player, which was why Ying Qingcang, who had always thought mahjong to be a complete waste of time, was forced to join the game.

Young Master Shen had just fed a tile to Zhang Mi when his phone rang. He picked up and listened to a few lines spoken to him on the phone. Then, laughed in mild surprise. ”He's not that kind of guy,” Young Master Shen said. ”There must be some kind of misunderstanding.”

”Boss Wan has arrived,” Young Master Shen told Ying Qingcang after hanging up.

Ying Qingcang arched his brows and revealed his winning hand. ”Then he should be here soon,” he said.

Zhang Mi glared daggers at Ying Qingcang. ”Son of a bitch! That's my Thirteen Orphans!”

Xin Qing chuckled and stood up. ”I'll go get Xunxun upstairs.”

A knock sounded from the door while they were clearing the mahjong table away. Uncle Fu answered the door. Indeed, the person standing at the door was Boss Wan, who was dressed in a black attire from head to toe.

”Haha!” Young Master Shen laughed, sitting back down on the couch. ”What happened to your rule of never traveling on your own? What made you come all the way here alone?”

Boss Wan came over and sat down beside Ying Qingcang. ”I'm here to see my son.”

Ying Qingcang waved a hand in annoyance. ”Great. Hurry up and take your son away.”

”That won't do. The girl is too young. She still needs maternal love.”

”Oh, so you're still planning to take my daughter away from me?” Ying Qingcang sneered at him. ”Guess your son had inherited his shameless attitude from you.”

Young Master Shen was giggling like a girl. Zhang Mi came down from upstairs. When she saw Young Master Shen's behavior, she came over and pinched his waist. ”Why in the bloody hell are you laughing like a pervert?”

Boss Wan raised his head and saw Xunxun carrying Ah Sha towards them. The serious look in Boss Wan's face intensified the moment he saw the kids. This was Ah Sha's first time meeting Boss Wan. Terrified by the scary look on Boss Wan's face, Ah Sha burrowed herself deeper into Xunxun's chest.

”You're scaring Ah Sha,” Xunxun said, his face expressionless.

The corners of Boss Wan's lips lifted, revealing a smile that was even more terrifying. ”Ah Sha,” he said. ”I'm your father-in-law!”

”Wa!” Ah Sha burst into tears and stretched her hands out towards Ying Qingcang, demanding a hug. Ying Qingcang took Ah Sha happily. Xunxun, on the other hand, was staring at Boss Wan with a look of pure hatred. ”Why are you here?”

Boss Wan gave Ying Qingcang a sidelong glance. ”Sure, enjoy it while you still can. Your daughter will be ours when she grows older anyway,” he thought.

”I'm here to see her,” Boss Wan said, pointing at Xin Qing.
