The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

Chapter 1645 - 1644: Yan Xin

"Miss Bei Lin, I almost forgot to tell you something!"The man was at a loss. He just talked about the Second Son of the Yan Family and the Yan Family matters earlier, but didn't mention the attitude of Second Son of the Yan Family towards Tang Rao to Bei Lin. He only remembered now and spoke up, uncertain if Tang Rao and Bei Lin would mind.

"Actually, Young Master Yan's target is the Tang Family Master. This time, he asked me to capture you also because of the Tang Family Master. He wants to use your life as leverage to catch the Tang Family Master, then capture all the people from the Kao Shan Sect in one fell swoop and claim them for himself!"

This matter was believed by the Second Son of Yan Family to be known only by him and his father. The man knowing about it was quite unexpected; he just happened to pass by the two people's reception room and did not anticipate that they were discussing such significant issues inside.

The man only felt the Yan Family had too big an appetite, not satisfied with East Island, they still wanted to extend their reach to North Island. Any talk of revenge was false; their real intention was to seize benefits that didn't belong to them.

"I know what you're thinking, Second Son of Yan Family's motives are obvious to anyone who thinks just a bit smarter."

What did Tang Rao mean? Was he outright denying the man's intelligence or implying he was too smart that even if the man didn't say it, he could understand such a simple matter?

"Miss Bei Lin, I truly didn't think of it before, so I forgot to tell you. You won't blame me, right?"

Bei Lin shook her head indicating she didn't blame him. In Tang Rao's view, Bei Lin's actions towards this man were very suspicious, not something her personality could ever do. If her earlier behavior was just pretending to be jealous, then now Tang Rao was genuinely feeling jealousy.

"What kind of insect poison person, come on, your poisonous insect poison is gone, why linger around my Kao Shan Sect? What is your purpose?"

Previously, Tang Rao wouldn't have been so lenient; any man possibly having a special relationship with Tang Rao's women simply didn't have a chance to survive.

"Tang Rao, he's someone I kept behind, and will become part of the Kao Shan Sect. Whether you agree or not, I have the final say in this. If you wish to argue, then I'll just leave with him, alright?"

So stubborn?

"Alright, alright, since you're so firm, let me ask you, what is your reason for keeping him, this unknown person whose name you don't even know? How can you be sure he isn't a spy, and what is your purpose in keeping him in the Kao Shan Sect?"

Her jealousy was clearly visible in Bei Lin's eyes as she laughed secretly, saying, "You won't be jealous, will you?"

This playful laugh made Tang Rao feel defeated.

Jealous? Yes, he was indeed feeling jealous. What was there to not admit?

"His name is Yan Xin. Although he shares a surname with Yan, he has absolutely no connection with the Yan Family. I chose to keep him here because of his merits to the Kao Shan Sect and his filial obedience. As for other reasons, perhaps it's his innate insect poison physique."

Filial obedience and merits to the Kao Shan Sect naturally couldn't be the reasons to keep him in the sect. It's likely the latter was Bei Lin's true intention.

Tang Rao's gaze softened considerably when he looked at Yan Xin, no longer considering someone who wasn't as handsome or exceptional as him as a rival.

"See, I knew you couldn't be better than me; our Lin Lin wouldn't fancy you. I was shortsighted earlier to consider you as... whatever. I won't get into past matters. Since our Lin Lin agreed to let you stay, I can only agree. But if I find that you have ulterior motives while in the Kao Shan Sect, regardless of how our Lin Lin pleads for you, I won't spare you!"

Tang Rao's 'fierce' gaze was directed at Yan Xin, but seeing Yan Xin's undaunted look, he thought this guy was really a man. Even the last bit of ill will vanished as well.

"Tang Family Master, rest assured, since I've made this choice, I won't regret it. Of course, in the Kao Shan Sect, I will keep myself in line, understanding well what actions to take and which not to take!"

Hmm, seems quite sensible.

Tang Rao thought to himself, no matter what you do, I'm not afraid. In my view, if you embark on some nefarious deeds, I might as well take your life. But if it involves stealing a wife, I wouldn't know how to communicate with you!

"Yan Xin, from now on, don't call him Tang Family Master. You can call him Tang Rao or Boss. Everyone around him calls him Boss, and if you do the same, I think he will be glad to help get your family back from the Second Son of Yan Family!"

Huh?

Tang Rao knew straight away that someone like Yan Xin couldn't possibly make such a sacrifice without some conditions. Just asking Bei Lin to remove the poisonous insect poison was challenging enough, let alone saving his family from the Second Son of Yan Family?

Regarding going to rescue people, Tang Rao didn't know whether to agree. Rather than thinking that, he was more eager to find out if he had such great capability.

It turned out, after Tang Rao reached the mid to late stage of the Upper God, he was stuck at a bottleneck and couldn't surpass it.

This situation left him very dissatisfied. If possible, he would genuinely want to challenge the Second Son of Yan Family, seeking excitement to see if he might find an opportunity through intense battle to make a significant breakthrough.

"Tang Rao, unlike ordinary requests, Yan Xin's plea is genuine sincerity. I think asking you to help save someone shouldn't be any problem, right?"

From a man's request, Tang Rao might pretend not to understand, yet from a beauty's, especially his woman's, Tang Rao had no resistance at all.

If he doesn't agree now, would it take another man seizing the chance for a crisis awareness before he promises?

"No problem, as long as my wife's happy, not only will I save someone, I'll do anything, even commit murder."

Murder isn't necessary, though in the Divine Realm sternness prevails, it still adheres to principles. Besides, murder lacks the accomplishment of saving lives.

Bei Lin explained Yan Xin's family situation to Tang Rao, asking him to first help analyze. When everyone was serious, Tang Rao listened attentively and provided a structured and straightforward analysis.

"So, you don't actually know if your family is truly with the Second Son of Yan Family, whether they are still alive. Yet just based on his word, you believe he's not deceiving you?"

Yan Xin didn't deny it and even nodded blankly.

"Since your family left, you never saw them again, and you requested the Second Son of Yan Family let you see them but got no results?"

Exactly right!

Tang Rao believed the man in front of him was too innocent, even hopelessly so. He'd been fooled so much yet continued to believe in someone else's depiction of a beautiful life.
