When Xiao Yun heard Gu Xiaoyue's words, she knew it was the result she feared the most and could not accept.

Her eyes gradually widened and she collapsed and yelled, "Impossible, my cousin will never get engaged to you! Impossible!——"

Gu Xiaoyue buried her face in Shui Lingyu's arms, but looked at Xiao Yun provocatively out of the corner of her eyes.

This look angered Xiao Yun even more, and she was about to rush up and hit her.

"presumptuous!"

Xiao Yun's actions were stopped by Xiao Hongjun, and her raised hand froze in mid-air.

"Grandpa, this woman is lying. She can't possibly be engaged to my cousin!"

She threw her hand down in anger and acted coquettishly towards Xiao Hongjun.

"How is that impossible? Ling Yu and Su Jinxuan broke off their engagement because of me. If you don't believe me, you can go ask her.

Also, when my parents came to Hechuan, they also lived in the property under Ling Yu’s name. Later, they found a house that they liked better, so they moved out.”

What Gu Xiaoyue said are all traceable and can be found.

Half-truths sound more believable.

Duan Yao's eyes were also a little confused. Gu Xiaoyue admitted that her fiancé was Chu Li two days ago, but today she said it was Shui Lingyu.

"Impossible, impossible—"

Xiao Yun's mentality collapsed and she kept repeating that it was impossible.

A trace of disgust flashed across Xiao Hongjun's face, and he asked his servants to take Xiao Yun away.

“Since we are all family, let’s go to the side hall and rest first.

The marriage contract will be ready in a moment, and you can leave after signing it."

Until now, Xiao Hongjun has not yet agreed to release the restrictions on Gu Xiaoyue and Duan Yao.

Several people went to the side hall together.

Xiao Mingyan's eyes were red as he stared at Gu Xiaoyue.

"Don't think that the Xiao family will let you go just because you have a backer! You have to return the immortal pet egg whether you want to or not!"

"Cousin, you are joking. I didn't take it, so why should I return it? You can't snatch Duan Yao's god-level pet, so you have to snatch an immortal-level pet from me?"

Gu Xiaoyue jumped to the sofa and threw herself on it.

Shui Lingyu couldn't help but speak up, "Immortal-grade pet eggs are hard to come by, I understand that my cousin feels bad for her, but he shouldn't just keep asking Xiaoyue for them.

If you have evidence, just show it to her. If she refuses to return it to you, I will pay it back for her!

You shouldn't keep asking for things without any basis like this!"

Xiao Mingyan snorted coldly and stopped talking.

Duan Yao was still being hugged by Xiao Hang, and Xiao Mingyan was present, so they couldn't draw a clear line between them.

Act out your role to the end.

In the study, Xiao Hongjun ordered his servants to draft a marriage certificate.

He walked to the window, lit his pipe, and took a slow puff.

Duan Yao can neither be kept nor killed.

Being in a situation where she is stuck in a dilemma, it is also a good choice for her to get married with Xiao Hang.

After all, once you marry into the Xiao family, you’ll be a member of the Xiao family!

The same goes for Gu Xiaoyue. Marrying Shui Lingyu would make her half a member of the Xiao family, and she could be put to good use in the future.

He took another puff and blew out a smoke ring.

Xiao Hang and Xiao Han are becoming more and more opinionated.

They thought he couldn't see that they were operating behind the scenes and forming a clique for personal gain.

However, compared to them, Xiao Yun was more fearless because of her strong talent in taming beasts and her and Xiao Mingyan's favor.

They are arrogant and brainless in everything they do, and sometimes I even have to clean up their mess myself!

As the saying goes, it is easy to start a business but difficult to maintain it. Decades ago, he expanded his territory and did a lot of unscrupulous and plundering things.

Now that I’m old, I tend to be a little hesitant when doing things.

Xiao Hongjun sighed, "Call Xiao Hang."

"The old man called me, but has the marriage certificate been drafted?"

The servant called Xiao Hang into the study, and he still looked nonchalant.

"That's about it. I just want to advise you to pay more attention to her pets and see if they are really companion beasts."

A hint of greed flashed across Xiao Hongjun's eyes, and Xiao Hang immediately understood.

"Of course! But old man, although Duan Yao is a branch of the Duan family, he also has four god-level pets. I am now in the Xiao family--"

Xiao Hongjun nodded slowly, "I will ask Mingyan to give you the information about Yongle Commercial Building later. From today on, Yongle will be handed over to you to manage."

Xiao Hongjun felt relieved by Xiao Hang's attitude. He was indeed his grandson. He had clear goals and knew what supplies he could exchange for his bargaining chips.

With Duan Yao's strength, I'm afraid the Duan family would not agree to his marriage with a junior of the Xiao family who has no real power.

On the surface, they seem to be a good match, but there is a huge gap in their strength.

Since the beast taming strengths are not on par, let’s match them in terms of resources!

"Master, the marriage certificate has been drafted."

Gu Xiaoyue and the others returned to the study room again.

"Mingyan, from today on, Yongle Commercial Building will be handed over to Xiaohang. The work of the South China Beast Tamer Association will be handed over to Xiaohan."

Duan Yao looked at the marriage certificate from the side, not daring to breathe.

Xiao Mingyan tried hard to suppress his anger, his chest heaving violently, but he did not dare to go against his grandfather's decision.

After these two sectors were taken away, he was not completely sidelined. He still had some trivial work to do, but it was almost unprofitable.

Xiao Mingyan stared at Gu Xiaoyue fiercely, the culprit who had brought him to this point!

Shui Lingyu noticed his gaze and quietly stood in front of Gu Xiaoyue, blocking Xiao Mingyan's sight.

"Yaoyao, have you read it? Sign it."

Xiao Hang picked up the pen and put it in Duan Yao's hand.

Duan Yao just felt his scalp tingling. He was afraid that he would not be able to leave safely if he didn't sign.

She made up her mind and signed her name on the marriage certificate.

But just after signing the marriage certificate, my nose felt sore and tears were about to flow.

She was in love with Chu Li. Ever since Chu Li helped her out of trouble and paid 18 billion star coins as a penalty, she had already fallen in love with him.

"Haha, I'm so happy that I want to cry!"

Seeing that Duan Yao had already signed the marriage certificate, Xiao Hang hugged her waist affectionately again.

He also pinched her waist gently to remind her to perform the whole act.

Duan Yao wiped away her tears and murmured, "Well, I'm just too happy."

At this point, Xiao Hongjun waved his hand and several men in black suits came in.

"Master, ladies please!"

Gu Xiaoyue secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Xiao Hongjun was finally willing to let them leave.

Shui Lingyu silently glanced at the chains on Gu Xiaoyue's hands and feet, and simply picked her up like a princess.

When everyone reached the entrance of the Xiao family's house, the man in black suit removed Gu Xiaoyue's chains and the restrictions on Duan Yao's neck.

Chu Li and He Zhichen were waiting at the door of the Xiao family's house. When they saw Gu Xiaoyue coming out, they immediately went to greet her.

"Xiao Yue, are you okay?"

Before Gu Xiaoyue could answer, Duan Yao felt even more aggrieved when he saw Chu Li and started to cry.

Even if Xiao Hongjun could watch them from the window, Xiao Hang was too lazy to pretend.

Yongle Department Store and the South China Beastmaster Association were already in their hands, so he and Xiao Han had not come here in vain.

As for the secret realm of the snowy mountains, Gu Xiaoyue had already colluded with Xiao Han.

She was just preparing for the possibility that one day, she would be caught by Xiao Hongjun because of the relationship between Xiao Yun and Xiao Mingyan.

How could she know whether there would be thousand-year-old snow ginseng in the secret realm of Neves? She just wanted to give Xiao Hongjun a thought.
