Chapter 149: Where Did This Big Capitalist Come From?

~10 min read 1,843 words

Lan Yu Qiancong looked at Su Nian and Nangong Nayue, and after pondering for a moment, she revealed a sly smile.

"Nayue-chan, you wouldn't want me to make public the fact that you were involved in magical crimes, would you?"

With a smile of successful mischief on her face, Lan Yu Qiancong looked at Nangong Nayue's delicate, doll-like little face.

For some reason, now that she had leverage over Nangong Nayue, she felt a restless urge to pinch those cheeks.

"Hmm?? I kindly tell you the truth, and this is how you repay me."

Nangong Nayue glared at Lan Yu Qiancong with full authority; she could, of course, tell that Lan Yu Qiancong was merely playing a prank.

Otherwise, it wouldn't just be a glare, but the Seal of Commandment.

"Honestly, can't Nayue-chan just wait for me to finish speaking?"

Lan Yu Qiancong pouted unhappily while withdrawing her restless hand.

In fact, Lan Yu Qiancong didn't have any particular thoughts about Nangong Nayue's involvement in the magical crimes of controlling the upper echelons of Itogami Island.

In her view, Nangong Nayue must have had her own hidden reasons, and she trusted Nangong Nayue's character very much.

Nangong Nayue and Su Nian had merely controlled those high-ranking officials; they hadn't committed any outrageous acts like illegal human experimentation, crimes, or human trafficking.

Since they hadn't reached out to the innocent commoners at the bottom, she naturally had no objections.

As for it affecting her old man... she didn't care about that guy who, while his wife lay in the intensive care unit, couldn't wait to get together with the driver.

Of course, Nangong Nayue's character was also one of the reasons.

She believed that Nangong Nayue would not commit those heaven-defying, people-angering acts.

Of course, if she really did do something bad, she would use every means to stop her; one should not underestimate the strength of the "Electronic Empress."

"Wait for you to finish? Don't think I didn't see through your intentions."

Nangong Nayue snorted coldly and said with great authority; failing to maintain her authority in front of Su Nian did not mean she couldn't maintain her authority as a teacher in front of Lan Yu Qiancong.

"Fine."

Lan Yu Qiancong sighed and could only put away her thoughts that were so offensive to Nangong Nayue's authority.

"However, Nayue-chan..."

"Call me Teacher!!"

Nangong Nayue couldn't help but use the folding fan in her hand to knock Lan Yu Qiancong's head hard to correct her.

"Okay, Teacher Nayue."

Lan Yu Qiancong covered her head in pain, and under Nangong Nayue's tyrannical might, she was forced to call her teacher.

"Then, can I ask Teacher Nayue for a favor?"

Lan Yu Qiancong pressed her palms together, bowed slightly toward Nangong Nayue, and said with a pleading look.

Hearing Lan Yu Qiancong's correction, Nangong Nayue's attitude naturally improved quite a bit; she crossed her arms and nodded slightly.

"Speak, what is it? If I can help, I certainly will."

"I want to ask if Teacher Nayue could pretend that I have been offered to that big shot, and then lift the control over my father."

"I want to make him anxious and see his reaction."

Lan Yu Qiancong said, puffing out her cheeks in anger; she held a lot of resentment toward her irresponsible father, Lanyu Xianzai.

Usually at home, she lived all by herself; he didn't even say a word to her aside from sending money, which she could understand due to his busy work.

But her mother was critically ill in the hospital, nearly dying, and she hadn't seen Lanyu Xianzai visit her mother even once, let alone that.

How dare he go on a date with that female driver while her mother was in critical condition?

She wanted to see what face he would have to face her mother and her now.

Nangong Nayue looked at Lan Yu Qiancong in silence; she knew very well how much of a daughter-obsessed person Lanyu Xianzai was.

She guessed that Lan Yu Qiancong might have simply misunderstood a lot of things from a child's perspective?

Out of a teacher's sense of responsibility, she actually didn't want to take on this commission, and she didn't want to get too involved in other people's family affairs.

However, before she could open her mouth to refuse, Su Nian, who had been watching the show with interest on the side, agreed.

"I'll take this commission, but what price are you willing to pay? Priestess of Kain?"

Su Nian grabbed Nangong Nayue's hand as she prepared to pinch him to stop him, while gently shaking a can of cola with his other hand.

Nangong Nayue puffed out her cheeks in anger on the side; you don't need to get involved in this kind of little girl's family drama, do you?

This Fourth Progenitor is a bit too bored.

"The price is me."

Lan Yu Qiancong said in a fit of pique, not caring at all about what kind of price she would be paying.

After all, even with the title of Electronic Empress, she was currently just a rebellious teenage girl.

"Very well, come sign this lifetime contract."

Su Nian snapped his fingers, and a contract in black and white appeared in his hand, which he then handed to Lan Yu Qiancong.

"A lifetime unpaid labor contract? I even have to pay to work? Unpaid, unlimited overtime? No social insurance or housing fund, and not even meal or travel expenses are reimbursed."

"Where did this big capitalist come from!"

Lan Yu Qiancong glanced at the contract Su Nian handed her and looked at him in astonishment.

No way? You're serious? You really are a big capitalist who deserves to be hung from a lamppost.

Why didn't you hand over a voluntary donation form along with it?

Seeming to see through Lan Yu Qiancong's thoughts, Su Nian rubbed his chin and pondered for a moment.

"It seems something is missing. Right, an organ voluntary donation form, promising to voluntarily donate organs and useful tissues to the company after an accident."

"No, you actually gave me a voluntary donation form too?"

Lan Yu Qiancong stared at Su Nian, dumbfounded; she had just said that out of self-abandonment and anger.

"That is why, young lady, it is better not to say things randomly."

Su Nian shrugged his shoulders and took back these two joke-like contract documents.

"However, this time, I'll do a good deed and reluctantly help you out once."

"Then thank you."

Lan Yu Qiancong bowed slightly to Su Nian as a gesture of thanks; it was rare for such a big shot to be willing to play along with her little game of rebellion.

It was indeed worth thanking him.

"Qiancong, come here for a second."

Su Nian suddenly picked up Lan Yu Qiancong's phone and then pulled Lan Yu Qiancong directly into his arms.

"What are you doing?"

Lan Yu Qiancong struggled instinctively, then saw that Su Nian had picked up the phone and seemed to be preparing to take a picture.

She then stopped struggling and let Su Nian wrap his arm around her neck, while simultaneously adjusting her posture to face the camera.

With a "Click!", a photo of Su Nian and Lan Yu Qiancong was sent to Lanyu Xianzai, whom Su Nian had just released from his control.

Along with it, Su Nian did not forget to upload a sentence.

"The blood of Kain's priestess tastes quite good."

He also did not forget to add a "thumbs up" emoji at the end of the message.

"How is this?"

Su Nian let go of Lan Yu Qiancong, handed the phone back to her, and told her to look at the message.

"Not bad, this is exactly how one should deal with that stinky old man."

Lan Yu Qiancong nodded in agreement; the stinky old man must be very conflicted right now, right? As long as he sends a message to ask about it now, she would just explain it clearly.

After all, Lan Yu Qiancong just wanted to rebel a little bit; she didn't intend to cause any major trouble, just something on the level of running away from home.

Although, even if she really ran away from home now, given the frequency with which Lanyu Xianzai came home once every ten days or half a month, it might not even be discovered.

On the other side, at the Artificial Island Management Center, Lanyu Xianzai's hands trembled slightly as he looked at the message sent by his daughter, Lan Yu Qiancong.

He didn't dare to reply at all; although he didn't know how it happened, he had actually broken free from the Fourth Progenitor's control, but his daughter was currently under the Fourth Progenitor's control.

What if the message he sent angered the Fourth Progenitor?

He didn't even dare to show the slightest abnormality within the entire council now; if there were any anomalies, he was very afraid of that group of monsters—yes, monsters, monsters without the slightest emotion.

That group of monsters that grew out of the bodies of the original high-level officials.

He was even more afraid of being swarmed and torn apart, and not even his two daughters would be able to escape.

"For this kind of crisis, I had better seek rescue from the Lion King Organization."

Lanyu Xianzai silently finished his affairs, then walked out silently just as he had when he was controlled by the Blacklight Virus, and found his driver.

"Jin, go to the Rhein Antique Shop, hurry."

An obscure antique shop on Itogami Island, or rather, just an antique shop on the surface; ordinary people didn't even know of this antique shop's existence.

But what was unknown to others was that this antique shop was a branch established by the Lion King Organization on Itogami Island.

Although the official forces of Itogami Island and secret agencies like the Lion King Organization were at odds, now that the high-level officials of Itogami Island were almost all under control,

the only target Lanyu Xianzai could seek help from was the Lion King Organization.

Only the Lion King Organization, which frequently dealt with magic-related crimes, had the ability to handle the affairs of this Fourth Progenitor.

Even the fact that Itogami Island became the venue for the Flame Light Banquet was due to the cooperation between the Xianshen Family and the Lion King Organization.

Whether it was for the normal holding of the Flame Light Banquet, for magic-related crimes, for the sake of Itogami Island, or to prevent that Fourth Progenitor from doing whatever he pleased,

the Lion King Organization had to step in to handle these matters.

On the other side, inside the buffet restaurant, Lan Yu Qiancong looked at the message on her phone that had been read for a long time without a reply, and she couldn't help but become even angrier.

She looked at Su Nian with some suspicion, and Su Nian shrugged his shoulders.

"I am certain that I have already lifted the control."
