Chapter 636: This is So Embarrassing
"Xiao Xuanxuan, it seems that they don't believe you," Tang Rao looked at Li Shengxuan.
"Not believing is their problem, I never intended to make the ungrateful bitch believe anyway. Xiao Hei, as long as you believe me, that's enough. Am I right?" Li Shengxuan said.
Tang Rao: "..."
Well, now that Li Shengxuan is following him, she's certainly picked up some bad habits, even using words like 'ungrateful bitch'. Things are really turning upside-down.
Although Xiao Xiangruo was somewhat annoyed at being called an ungrateful bitch by Li Shengxuan, she couldn't do much about it.
No matter whether she really was an Immortal Emperor or not, the first point was: she absolutely couldn't beat her.
So, she could only swallow the insults.
"Sister Natasha, speaking of which, could you just pretend Xiao Hei is just Xiao Hei?" Li Shengxuan asked.
She really liked her current life, sleeping and eating barbecue when idle, and if there were matters to attend to, they were never serious. Dragged out by Xiao Hei benefactor, they would return in at most half a day, and most of the matters weren't boring either.
Of course, Natasha understood what Li Shengxuan meant, but in the end, she still shook her head. How could she pretend nothing had happened?
She could never deceive herself.
"Alright then." Seeing Natasha shake her head, Li Shengxuan also shook her head helplessly and then looked at Tang Rao, "Xiao Hei benefactor, what are you planning to do now?"
"What do you mean, what to do?" Tang Rao asked.
"They already know you're Tang Rao, your identity has been exposed, you're not going to be well-received anymore, where will we go next?" Li Shengxuan babbled on.
"Go nowhere." Tang Rao shook his head, he suddenly decided to be shameless.
Go nowhere?
"Although I'm Tang Rao, this isn't a reason for me to leave this place. I've been living here comfortably, why should I go? Besides, look how chaotic the world is right now, I need to stay here to maintain world peace, I absolutely can't go," Tang Rao shook his head as he spoke.
All three women had incredulous looks on their faces.
Talking like this, Tang Rao, you really have no shame.
And maintaining world peace? The situation is in this mess because of you stirring things up.
"Tang Rao, I don't know what you're really up to, but please, leave now. Natasha is now the Grand Chairman of Giant Merchant Star, what are you doing staying here?" Xiao Xiangruo huffed, although she couldn't beat Li Shengxuan, she still had her pride. A person without pride is no different than...never mind, even a salted fish has it rough.
"What do you mean, what am I doing? Natasha and I are close business partners," Tang Rao said with a smile, "If Natasha refuses to cooperate with me, then she's done for, after all, there's the oath to the Heavenly Dao."
What!
Hearing Tang Rao's words, Xiao Xiangruo was shocked, Natasha and Tang Rao have an oath to the Heavenly Dao? What's going on?
"I'm sorry, I was left with no choice then." Natasha briefly explained the situation to Xiao Xiangruo.
"Tang Rao, you really are cunning," Xiao Xiangruo gritted her teeth, Tang Rao was truly a bastard, even resorting to such a curse-binding method.
"I was forced to," Tang Rao said, spreading his hands out, "What can I do when Giant Merchant Star is such a big enterprise with huge resources? I can only take such unorthodox routes."
"Do you have any shame?" Xiao Xiangruo was angry, saying Giant Merchant Star has such a big enterprise and resources is truly shameless, what does Li Shengxuan count for? Even if it's not just Giant Merchant Star, all the Nine Realms and Seventy-two Domains combined, probably can't match what she could confront.
"Cooperation, huh? I'll tell you there's no way! I'm going to replace Natasha right now with someone else as the president of the Giant Merchant Star. Without this connection, partnering with Natasha is useless!" Xiao Xiangruo said.
"Are you suggesting Zhao Qingtian take the position? He's also my little brother, you know..."
Xiao Xiangruo nearly choked on her breath, Tang Rao, this scumbag, how could he be such a scumbag. Oh my god, is there anyone in this world more trash than this trash?
"Besides, you can't replace Natasha," Tang Rao said seriously.
"Why not? If I want to change, I'll change!" Xiao Xiangruo roared, truly wanting to tear Tang Rao apart.
"Because if you do remove her, I'll have Sheng Xuan shred you to pieces. Don't think of obstructing my path to wealth, don't think of ruining my rise to prosperity. I'll tell you, our cooperation is the trend of the times; you can't defy objective laws!" Tang Rao stated.
Xiao Xiangruo had never encountered someone who could make threats sound so righteous.
"Sheng Xuan, here's your chance, get ready to tear a living person apart," Tang Rao looked towards Li Shengxuan.
Li Shengxuan was clenching her fists and rubbing her palms together, looking quite interested.
"Xiao Xiangruo..." Natasha stepped forward to pull Xiao Xiangruo back, then shook her head.
Facing Tang Rao now, Natasha was completely clueless on how to deal with him. However, as someone who had had long-term dealings with him, she felt that Tang Rao would not speak carelessly.
If Xiao Xiangruo continued to be so stubborn, Li Shengxuan might really take action.
She could see that Li Shengxuan herself didn't like Xiao Xiangruo.
Li Shengxuan, this girl, Natasha knew very well. She was always vicious towards those she disliked.
Once, Li Shengxuan was in the yard using Tang Rao's hunting rifle to shoot birds for barbecue, and Natasha noticed she chose her targets selectively. Only upon approaching did she hear Li Shengxuan mumbling: This one pleases me, this one doesn't, this one was here yesterday, I'll spare your life; never flew over and yet you dare to come, blast you to death...
Judging the birds with such a deranged eye, how twisted can you get.
"Natasha, do you really want to keep him here? You're so naive, he's already got you pegged! I'm telling you, keep this up and sooner or later you'll be conned out of everything!" Xiao Xiangruo shouted.
Natasha looked at Xiao Xiangruo, then at Tang Rao, her head hung low in helplessness.
I don't want it to be this way either, but some things, once they've happened, must be confronted. Running away has never been a solution.
Of course, deep down, Xiao Xiangruo was also ready to keep her distance from Tang Rao.
Whether he was the crafty Tang Rao or the humorous Xiao Hei, she didn't want to mess with him anymore. If there was business to discuss, then discuss; if not, just a passerby.
But for some reason, when making this decision, there was still an inexplicable ache and soreness in her heart.
"Whatever you want!" Seeing Natasha's demeanor, Xiao Xiangruo knew this stubborn woman had made up her mind. Natasha's decisions were always unchangeable, as stubborn as an old ox.
With that, Xiao Xiangruo just walked away, staying any longer was simply masochism.
After Xiao Xiangruo left, the atmosphere became incredibly awkward.
"Mr. Tang Rao, please make yourself at home, I'm going to rest," Natasha finally spoke, saying coldly before entering her room.
Opening and closing the door in one swift motion.
"Xiao Hei, my benefactor, this is so awkward..." Li Shengxuan muttered.
