Chapter 989: If you won

"Liu Deputy Officer, what's the matter?"

At midnight, Liu Mengyun knocked on Xia Na's door.

"The Lord of Dacheng wants to see you!"

"Oh!" Hearing that Su Yang wanted her, Xia Na suddenly lost all sleepiness, "I'll get ready!"

"Do you need time to dress up?"

Seeing Liu Mengyun's icy gaze, Xia Na wilted.

"Where is the Lord of Dacheng?"

"In his study!"

"Should I go find him?"

"Mm!" Liu Mengyun nodded, "Go!"

After speaking, Liu Mengyun returned to her room.

Watching Liu Mengyun disappear, Xia Na hesitated slightly, then dragged her slippers quietly toward the study.

The study door was half-open, glowing with light.

Xia Na gently knocked on the door.

"Come in!"

Entering the study and seeing Su Yang's profile, Xia Na grew nervous.

"Close the door. It's about the Omen Crow."

"Oh!"

Xia Na quickly shut the door and walked over to Su Yang's side.

The matter of the Omen Crow was now her greatest torment.

A pet beast with divine potential—no one would ever abandon it unless absolutely forced.

All of Xia Na's hopes now rested on Su Yang.

She glanced at the doll-like humanoid pet beast in his arms—it too might be a divine-potential pet!

Across the entire Huaxia Federation, she had seriously considered, only Su Yang could possibly help her.

"Sit!" Su Yang pointed to the sofa across from him.

"Okay!"

Xia Na sat lightly on the sofa, gazing expectantly at Su Yang.

She knew Su Yang had summoned her at midnight because he'd thought of a way to handle the Omen Crow.

"I have a method that can stabilize your Omen Crow, prevent it from fleeing, and make it help you improve your strength."

"Mm!" Xia Na nodded and asked softly, "What's the cost?"

Xia Na was no delicate flower raised in a greenhouse.

Her innate cursed constitution had subjected her to hardship since childhood, forcing her to drift through major cities in the south and southeast, enduring human indifference—she was young, but her mind was far from naive.

She understood clearly: no one gives without expecting something in return.

Those who claim to offer help without asking for anything—either seek fame, or intend to extract greater benefits from you…

"If you ever want to leave later, you might not be able to."

"That's it?"

Xia Na stared at Su Yang in surprise.

Su Yang nodded: "Yes, just that. You'll have to serve me from now on."

Xia Na nodded decisively: "Then I agree."

"Don't you want to think about it more?"

"No need. I accept."

Serving beside Su Yang?

To Xia Na, this was an unimaginable stroke of fortune.

With Su Yang's current status in the Huaxia Federation, if he merely announced he needed people around him…
