Ch 284: Truly, there will be consequences for one’s actions.
“Okay, I understand.”
Yun Xiao waved his hand dismissively, allowing the Bodyguard to leave.
He casually stood up, adjusted his robe, and said, “You two Little Ghosts stay put in the room.”
The others will come out with me to see what’s going on.
Yun Xiao had made up his mind; he couldn’t let the Interstellar Queen know that he was helping her take care of her child.
Otherwise, he would lose too much face!
He, the Dark Night Emperor, the child of his arch-rival’s family had run to his house, and not only did he not kill him, but he had to feed and care for him.
This matter absolutely cannot be leaked.
After letting Eight-legged Insect research a Forgetfulness Water and letting that little brat drink it, he can be let go!
After Yun Xiao made up his mind, his steps became even more firm.
The commotion outside was indeed quite large, but it wasn’t enough to scare Yun Xiao.
“What’s with all this commotion? Are you Interstellar planning to go to war with my Dark Night Empire?”
Yun Xiao slightly raised his chin, with a condescending posture.
He wasn’t afraid at all!
The Interstellar Queen bowed slightly to Yun Xiao and explained, “Dark Night Emperor, please calm down. We have no ill intentions this time; we just want to pick someone up.”
“My son was accidentally lost, and I traced the location and found him in the Dark Night Mansion. I hope the Dark Night Emperor will be lenient; he’s just a child.”
Hearing the last sentence, Yun Xiao sneered.
Although the other party might not have meant it that way, Yun Xiao inexplicably heard a hint of moral blackmail.
“Your son, lost, ran into my territory?”
Yun Xiao’s voice was neither loud nor soft, making it hard to fathom.
Yi Yao, the Interstellar Queen, nodded apologetically, “Yes, please return him to me, Dark Night Emperor!”
“Return him to you?”
“Yi Yao, you must understand that you are asking me for a favor, not the other way around.”
“Your son came to my territory without my permission, and now you’ve brought so much equipment, are you trying to raze my Dark Night Mansion to the ground?”
“Do you really think I’m a pushover?”
Yun Xiao’s voice was cold.
Obviously, he felt his authority had been challenged.
Yi Yao shook her head and quickly explained, “I didn’t mean that, Dark Night Emperor, please calm down, I just want to find my son.”
Yi Yao knew that she absolutely could not have a direct conflict with the Dark Night Empire!
Although it is now a peaceful era, the conflicts between Interstellar and the outside world are constant, and a large-scale battle even broke out recently.
Countless Interstellar Battle Armors were damaged.
Although the Dark Night Mansion doesn’t seem to have much combat capability now.
But the Dark Night Empire’s influence is too widespread, and it’s not weaker than Interstellar’s military strength at all.
So a direct conflict must be avoided.
“I’m willing to have them all leave!”
Yi Yao’s “them” referred to all the tanks, battle armors, and Bodyguards.
A great show of sincerity.
But Yun Xiao didn’t appreciate it at all. He snorted coldly and said, “Forget it, since you’re here, don’t leave.”
“I’m not an unreasonable person.”
“Your son barged into my territory without permission. I can’t just let it go, otherwise, where would I put my face? How would I control my subordinates in the future?”
“I don’t like beating around the bush, a sincere apology should be in order, right?”
Yun Xiao looked like a magnanimous gentleman, with a calm expression.
However, only those who knew him well would know that he was really annoyed this time.
The four people behind Yun Xiao whispered among themselves.
Black Widow: “I have a feeling this Interstellar Queen is going to be finished.”
Yan Biegu echoed, “Exactly, she angered the Boss, I guess old and new grudges will be settled together.”
Little Dragon Master tsked and sighed, “But the Interstellar Queen is a woman after all, the Boss should give her some face, right?”
Black Widow rolled her eyes at him, “When has the Boss ever made distinctions between men and women? If it weren’t for Niuniu, I would have thought the Boss would be a bachelor for life!”
“I didn’t expect the Boss not only didn’t stay a bachelor but even has a child!!”
Black Widow exclaimed in amazement.
“Alright, say less, you two are the most noisy.”
Eight-legged Insect reminded.
The two shut their mouths shamefacedly. In a blink of an eye, Yi Yao had already started apologizing without any airs.
After all, it was Yi Zichen’s fault.
So she apologized without any burden.
“I’m sorry!”
Yun Xiao was still dissatisfied: “Is a simple ‘sorry’ enough?”
“Then what compensation do you want?” Yi Yao was very sincere.
“Your son barged into my territory without permission, and you brought so much equipment to my door, I’ve lost all my face!”
Yun Xiao had the look of someone about to make an exorbitant demand.
Yi Yao pursed her lips, endured it again and again, took a few deep breaths, and finally spoke, “Dark Night Emperor, don’t push it too far.”
Yun Xiao exploded: “I’m pushing it too far!?”
“I haven’t even said anything yet?”
“How am I pushing it too far?”
“Did I ask you to kowtow to compensate for my mental distress?”
“Huh?”
“Then let’s do this, you kowtow to me, and this matter will be over, and I’ll let your son go.”
Yun Xiao thought his idea was good and secretly gave himself a thumbs-up!
Upon hearing this, Yi Yao’s hands instantly clenched, with an urge to kill.
Helian Yaoxun, who was standing beside her, also became anxious and roared, “Yun Xiao, you’re pushing it too far!!”
Yun Xiao subconsciously wanted to retort: I am pushing it too far, so what?
But after recognizing the source of the voice, Yun Xiao’s mind spun rapidly. After thinking for a long time, he squeezed out a sentence: “I was just joking!”
Black Widow was stunned: “This is the first time I’ve seen the Boss so cowardly. There’s a different kind of charm.”
Yun Xiao heard this sentence and sighed silently.
Did he want to be this cowardly?
The main reason was that the other party was his brother-in-law!
If they couldn’t come to an agreement, he wouldn’t be able to see Niuniu anymore!
He had to be cowardly!
“Then tell me, what do you want? I need a solution!”
Yun Xiao had given up!
As long as the other party’s conditions were reasonable, he could still be merciful.
“Hurry up, hurry up, I don’t have much patience!”
“If you don’t give me a satisfactory solution, I’m not sure what kind of suffering your little brat will endure!”
“Then, let him suffer the consequences!”
Yi Yao didn’t speak but looked past Yun Xiao at his back.
Seeing her reaction, Yun Xiao turned around inexplicably and looked in the direction of her gaze.
There were two little toddlers.
One of the little toddlers not only had a string of candied haws in his hand but also carried a huge Plastic Bag on his shoulder.
The Plastic Bag was transparent, so the snacks inside were clearly visible.
Yi Yao’s expression became complicated.
So “suffer the consequences” meant this!
