Chapter 191: Chapter 189 I Like to Listen

Nangong Dehua thought about how he had identified the real culprit who had ruined his son, which turned out to be Long Chen, but he hadn’t sought revenge on Long Chen right away.

Because he always believed Long Chen was a high-ranking member of Dragon Doctor, he feared acting hastily might spook the enemy and ruin the grand plan.

But now, he had suddenly learned that Long Chen was not actually the person in charge.

This left Nangong Dehua extremely frustrated.

"Then why did you pretend to be the person in charge during your last conversation with Mr. Nangong Wei?" Nangong Dehua asked through clenched teeth.

"Because, Director Xia said she had a sore throat and asked me to talk in her stead for a bit. I didn’t know what to say, so I just blabbered on. I didn’t expect that the next day, you would return the stolen goods to us. It’s really... beyond words." Long Chen sighed.

"You, a mere security guard, are simply causing trouble," Xia Ling chided with great admiration.

Long Chen hurriedly backed away in panic, "Director Xia, I know I was wrong."

"Get out."

Xia Ling waved her hand ’impatiently.’

This string of moves almost completely convinced Nangong Dehua and Nangong Wei of Long Chen’s words.

"Don’t leave just yet."

Nangong Dehua said darkly, "Since you’re not the leader of Dragon Doctor, explain to me why you crippled my son?"

"Who is your son?"

"Nangong Li," Nangong Dehua said through gritted teeth.

"Oh." Long Chen asked, "Do you know why your son was crippled?"

"Isn’t it because he fell for a woman and wanted to..."

Nangong Dehua suddenly stopped mid-sentence.

If it were a matter of reasoning, he was well aware that his son had no excuse.

The mention of this set off a fire in Long Chen’s heart, "Your son Nangong Li is lawless. He knew that the woman was already taken, yet he shamelessly sought to possess her.

What’s worse, he even had his sights on my little aunt, wanting to defile her. That is the reason he was crippled.

Do you think that what he did was acceptable?"

"This..."

Nangong Dehua had no rebuttal.

Having a deep understanding of Nangong Li, he knew all this was true.

"Dehua, this young man is just a security guard; I don’t think we need to waste our words on him."

Nangong Wei whispered.

Nangong Dehua suddenly snapped back to reality.

That’s right, this kid is just a security guard, why should I bother being polite to him?

With this thought, Nangong Dehua became assertive, "Young man, no one has ever dared to..."

"Shut up." Long Chen said sternly, "I forgot to tell you, even though I’m just a security guard, Xia Ling is my woman. If you want to touch me, you’d better weigh your options."

"What?"

Nangong Dehua was stunned.

"Husband, why would you suddenly say that?"

Xia Ling glanced at Long Chen with a shy look and then reached out to take his hand.

"Wife, sorry, I shouldn’t have revealed this," Long Chen said apologetically.

That addressed as ’wife’ almost made Xia Ling’s bones melt, her eyes filled with love, she softly said, "Husband, I don’t blame you. On the contrary, I’m very happy, very excited. If possible, I am willing to give you everything I have."

"I don’t want that; I only want you. With you, I have the whole world."

Long Chen said with extreme cheesiness.

The two of them were half acting, half serious, with no loopholes.

Nangong Dehua’s rising anger was forcibly stifled, "Ms. Xia... As such an outstanding woman, how could you be willing to share what... with other women?"

"Mr. Nangong, you don’t understand matters of the heart."

Xia Ling said sternly.

"Yes, yes, I indeed do not understand."

Nangong Dehua chuckled dryly.

He didn’t dare to offend Xia Ling.

After all, to him, she was a very important chess piece.

If he offended her to death, it would be extremely disadvantageous for the Nangong Family’s future control over Dragon Doctor.

"I say, Mr. Nangong, you wouldn’t want to kill me, would you?"

Long Chen suddenly asked Nangong Dehua.

"Not at all," Nangong Dehua hastily waved his hand in denial, "My earlier remarks were inappropriate, please forgive me, Mr. Long."

"So, you think your son deserves to die?" Long Chen asked again.

"He... he does." Nangong Dehua chuckled dryly.

"Is that so? Then when you go back, you might as well slaughter him."

Long Chen casually remarked.

"Long Chen, one must not go too far," Nangong Wei immediately said, "Don’t think that just because you have grasped our desire to cooperate with Dragon Doctor, you can do whatever you want."

"Isn’t it doing whatever I want? Wife, it seems this old fool really does want to kill me, I’m scared."

Long Chen turned and lay on Xia Ling’s body.

Xia Ling knew well that Long Chen was acting, but for a moment, she still couldn’t help glaring angrily at Nangong Wei, "You actually want to lay hands on my man, Xia Ling? Do you believe that I could just turn around and truly cooperate with the Yang Family? I’ll provide the funds, they the strength, ensuring the Nangong Family never recovers. Heh, I believe, with Dragon Doctor’s wealth, hiring a few peerless masters is not a difficult task."

On hearing this, both Nangong Wei and Nangong Dehua were taken aback.

Dragon Doctor did possess wealth capable of shaking the world, indeed capable of doing astonishing deeds.

"Ms. Xia, Mr. Long, we harbored no such intentions, our apologies for the disturbance."

Nangong Dehua hastily pulled Nangong Wei to leave.

Both parties came without achievement and left without progress.

Outside, Nangong Dehua spoke gravely, "It seems we’ve underestimated the methods of that girl Xia Ling, as well as overlooked the fact that, with Dragon Doctor’s wealth, it is indeed possible to hire some peerless masters to deal with us."

"What should we do then?"

Nangong Wei asked in a deep voice.

"Concerning Dragon Doctor, we have many ways to deal with them, for instance, kidnapping Long Chen and his family, as well as that Ms. Xia’s family all at once, to threaten and strategically gain success step by step, it wouldn’t be difficult, but we can’t deploy it now because of the Yang Family.

The Yang Family is our biggest threat, we must eliminate them first," Nangong Dehua said.

"I just can’t stand that Long Chen," Nangong Wei spoke in a deep voice, "I propose we find someone else to remove Long Chen. First, it would vent anger for the young master. Secondly, Long Chen seems to have quite a few clever tricks up his sleeve and could whisper in Xia Long’s ear. Getting rid of him would benefit us."

"That’s feasible, go find someone from Shadow Hall and have them take action, to execute Long Chen."

Nangong Dehua clenched his fist tight, his voice low and filled with a fearsome intent to kill.

"Okay."

Nangong Wei nodded vigorously.

Upstairs, Long Chen looked through the floor-to-ceiling windows, watching the retreating figures of Nangong Dehua and Nangong Wei, a hint of a cold smile playing on his lips.

This game was becoming more and more entertaining.

Xia Ling gently wrapped her arms around Long Chen from behind, "Just now you called me wife, could you say it a few more times? I like hearing it."

"How much do you like it?"

"Very much. Every time you say it, my heart races a bit, and I get so excited, feeling like I want to melt into your body."
