Chapter 1222: A Talk between Father and DaughterTranslator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

” En , I already know. w.a.n.g Kejin has already reported.” w.a.n.g Songshan did not mention about Tombstone’s matter; the matter of tracking w.a.n.g Xiaoyan was a secret, so w.a.n.g Songshan directly said that w.a.n.g Kejin told him, not Tombstone. However, this was not out of place because w.a.n.g Kejin had to be responsible to the a.s.sa.s.sin group. If there were a problem, it must definitely be reported to the a.s.sa.s.sin group.

“He… has already said it?” w.a.n.g Xiaoyan’s heart was subconsciously surprised. Since w.a.n.g Kejin has already talked, then he definitely mentioned about Yang Ming, but Father’s tone… does not seem to be interrogative, right ? This made w.a.n.g Xiaoyan slightly confused.

“Yes,” w.a.n.g Songshan said. “Even if you didn’t call me, I will call you.”

“Then…” w.a.n.g Xiaoyan, who was full of confidence, was somewhat guilty at the moment without knowing why. She wanted to tell her father about the matters of Yang Ming herself, but now, her father must have known it earlier, but why didn’t her father mention it?

“You have a boyfriend in Song Jiang?” When w.a.n.g Songshan saw w.a.n.g Xiaoyan stuttering, how could he not figure out w.a.n.g Xiaoyan’s heart at the moment? Fathers know their daughters best. w.a.n.g Xiaoyan probably called back this time, intending to tell everything to him. It’s just that he got the news from Tombstone in advance, so w.a.n.g Xiaoyan didn’t know how to speak up.

Since w.a.n.g Xiaoyan didn’t know how to speak up, then w.a.n.g Songshan simply spoke first. Anyway, he was very much in favor of w.a.n.g Xiaoyan and Yang Ming being together. Even if w.a.n.g Xiaoyan wanted to break up with Yang Ming, w.a.n.g Songshan would not agree. It was just that this couldn’t be said.

Although w.a.n.g Songshan was old now, who didn’t have a child’s temper? Previously, when his daughter left home without any regards, leaving him in an awkward position, w.a.n.g Songshan was very angry. Although he also understood w.a.n.g Xiaoyan’s difficulties, w.a.n.g Xiaoyan’s approach was really extreme. Therefore, at this moment, when there was an opportunity to scare w.a.n.g Xiaoyan, w.a.n.g Songshan still had to seize it.

Of course, this was only a secondary reason. The main reason was that Fang Tian didn’t reveal anything to Yang Ming. How could w.a.n.g Songshan reveal it first? It was better to let the two kids develop naturally. On the contrary, if their ident.i.ties were mentioned beforehand, it would not be as perfect. If the relations.h.i.+p between the two people were affected, he would be condemned as a sinner in history.

” Ah …” w.a.n.g Xiaoyan was shocked. Although she had already guessed that her father had already known about Yang Ming, she couldn’t help but be surprised to hear her father say it at the moment.

“Don’t be surprised. w.a.n.g Kejin’s mission is to a.s.sa.s.sinate a man named Yang Ming and his girlfriend.” w.a.n.g Songshan said calmly, “However, the a.s.sa.s.sination happened on you. Can I not figure out your relations.h.i.+p with Yang Ming? Could it be that I made a mistake? Are you two just ordinary friends?”

“No! Dad, you are not mistaken!” w.a.n.g Xiaoyan couldn’t wholly deny it this time. If she denied it, w.a.n.g Songshan would also find it inappropriate to continue to expose her, then this matter would be covered up. However, w.a.n.g Xiaoyan nodded and admitted, “He is my boyfriend; we are together already!”

” Oh ? It really is so.” After w.a.n.g Songshan heard it, he said faintly, “However, someone promised me that she would peacefully finish her high school and college outside, and come back to get married! She would never get a boyfriend outside. Was I mistaken?”

w.a.n.g Xiaoyan’s face suddenly became red. She indeed said these ambitious words when she left home. Now when she thought about it, she had gone back on her words. How could w.a.n.g Xiaoyan’s face not turn red?

“I…” w.a.n.g Xiaoyan was awkward for a moment, but then said, “But I also said that as long as I can build a world’s number one a.s.sa.s.sin group before the marriage, I can refuse to marry that person and pursue my own life!”

” En , you did say it.” w.a.n.g Songshan nodded. “But did you create the world’s number one a.s.sa.s.sin group?”

“I…” w.a.n.g Xiaoyan was suddenly at a loss for words. Indeed, she had not created the world’s first a.s.sa.s.sin group. So, in theory, w.a.n.g Xiaoyan did not have the right to free love.

“The Black b.u.t.terfly a.s.sa.s.sin Group that you made, I have seen it. Not bad. You can actually go to Africa to complete the special mission.” w.a.n.g Songshan smiled, “Yanyan, you did a good job. This is the first time that Dad is impressed with you!”

“You knew?” w.a.n.g Xiaoyan was a little surprised. Her father actually knew that her a.s.sa.s.sin group was renamed to the Black b.u.t.terfly a.s.sa.s.sin Group. But after thinking about it, it was understandable. The name change was announced on the World a.s.sa.s.sin platform. So, as long as her father read the announcement, he would know that the current Black b.u.t.terfly a.s.sa.s.sin Group was created by her.

” Hehe , I have read the announcement. Of course, I would know.” w.a.n.g Songshan seemed to be in a really good mood. “So, I won’t say much about you having a boyfriend, but I want to remind you that although the Black b.u.t.terfly a.s.sa.s.sin Group has now improved and has entered the top fifty, if you’re going to exceed our b.u.t.terfly Family, you have to invest a lot in it!

“Don’t be too happy. The higher the ranking, the harder it is to break through. This is why our b.u.t.terfly Family has not surpa.s.sed the King of a.s.sa.s.sins for many years. When he performs a mission, it will top the hundreds of ordinary missions that we do.

“You see, the Charles family always wanted to surpa.s.s us, but they always lacked a little. For so many years, they still lacked a little! This point determines the fundamental gap!”

“Dear Dad, I wanted to tell you a very unfortunate thing.” w.a.n.g Xiaoyan listened to her father’s words, and suddenly she was dissatisfied. “The Charles Family has decided to cooperate with our Black b.u.t.terfly a.s.sa.s.sin Group!”

“What? Charles Family? Cooperate with you? What do you mean?” w.a.n.g Songshan was stunned, and he immediately said in surprise. He did not hear of this news before. After all, Tombstone did not follow w.a.n.g Xiaoyan and Yang Ming to Europe, so he did not know what happened to them there. When he heard the news, he was extremely shocked.

“The Charles Family is ready to entrust the Black b.u.t.terfly a.s.sa.s.sin Group with their a.s.sa.s.sin group, and we are responsible for their operation. Old Charles only wanted a portion of the dividend every year.” w.a.n.g Xiaoyan said, somewhat proudly. These were all done by Yang Ming, but in any case, Yang Ming was her man. So, in w.a.n.g Xiaoyan’s opinion, it was just like she had done it herself.

“Yanyan… Is everything you said true?” w.a.n.g Songshan listened to w.a.n.g Xiaoyan’s words and widened his eyes. He didn’t expect it. Is Old Charles crazy? How could he hand over the big a.s.sa.s.sin group to a new and unknown Black b.u.t.terfly a.s.sa.s.sin Group to operate? This is unfathomable. How is this possible?

“Of course, it is true!” w.a.n.g Xiaoyan said affirmatively. Although w.a.n.g Xiaoyan did not hear it from Old Charles, these were told by Yang Ming; Yang Ming would not lie to her, so w.a.n.g Xiaoyan was very sure about it.

“Old Charles… He handed the a.s.sa.s.sin group to you to operate?” w.a.n.g Songshan still didn’t believe it. “Yanyan, you didn’t lie to Dad, right? This is no time to joke!”

“Dad, I really didn’t lie to you. In a few days, we have to go to Europe to talk about this with the Charles Family.” w.a.n.g Xiaoyan explained dumbfoundedly. It was reasonable that her Father would not believe it. When w.a.n.g Xiaoyan first heard the news, she was also shocked and inexplicable. It took her half a day to accept this fact. If it were not for the trust she had in Yang Ming, maybe w.a.n.g Xiaoyan would still not believe it now!

“Yanyan, I still don’t believe it. Why did Old Charles entrust with you his a.s.sa.s.sin group? You should know, Black b.u.t.terfly is just a newly established a.s.sa.s.sin group…” asked w.a.n.g Songshan.

“There is a reason why Old Charles gave us the a.s.sa.s.sin group to manage.” w.a.n.g Xiaoyan explained, “Old Charles’ son, Charles, is a racer. I believe that you know about this too?”

“I know this!” w.a.n.g Songshan said, “The kid seems to be unwilling to inherit his family business. He wants to be some racing driver. He actually got himself famous… It seems that he and Old Charles agreed that as long as he won the world champions.h.i.+p in racing, he can live his own life… Ai, every family has their own difficult experience, Yanyan, I have found out now that you are stronger than that Little Charles!”

“Of course!” w.a.n.g Xiaoyan snorted. “At the very least, I still like the a.s.sa.s.sin profession! This is the reason I wanted to mention. Old Charles’ age is getting older and older, and no one in the family can manage the business. Little Charles is not willing to inherit the family business, so he can only hand over the a.s.sa.s.sin group… and get some bonus every year.”

“It’s like this…” w.a.n.g Songshan nodded after listening, but he still had some doubts. “But, you are just a newly established a.s.sa.s.sin group. Although it is growing fast, there is no reason for Old Charles to be convinced, right? If he wanted to entrust someone with it, he should entrust it to some of the top-ranking a.s.sa.s.sin groups…”

Wait ! Speaking of this, w.a.n.g Songshan suddenly thought of something, and patted his head and asked, “Yanyan, could it be that you told Old Charles that you are my daughter? You revealed the ident.i.ty of the b.u.t.terfly Family?”

“No…” w.a.n.g Xiaoyan smiled bitterly. “I said it when I left home. I don’t want to rely on the power of the family. I want to make a career with my own ability! Of course, I will not tell the ident.i.ty of the b.u.t.terfly Family! However, it was Yang Ming who discussed with Old Charles about this matter… I don’t know the details. Right, Dad, I haven’t told you yet, right? Yang Ming is also an a.s.sa.s.sin, and he is very powerful!”

w.a.n.g Songshan certainly knew that Yang Ming was an a.s.sa.s.sin. However, listening to w.a.n.g Xiaoyan’s words, he was a bit surprised. It turned out that Old Charles’ matters were settled by Yang Ming. It seemed that the disciple of Fang Tian was also a talented one!

“I have already guessed it. w.a.n.g Kejin also said it before. Yang Ming knows Kung Fu.” w.a.n.g Songshan naturally would not say that he had long known the ident.i.ty of Yang Ming, but instead, he pushed the responsibility to w.a.n.g Kejin. “Which organization does he belong to?”

“He doesn’t belong to any organization; he’s a kind of freelance killer.” w.a.n.g Xiaoyan said, “Many things happened between him and me. So… Dad, you are not against us?”

“To tell the truth, I was still against it before, but when I heard from you that he actually acquired Old Charles’ business; he is indeed a talent.” w.a.n.g Songshan said, “However, no objection does not mean approval. Everything still relies on your strength. If within the stipulated time, you have not made the Black b.u.t.terfly a.s.sa.s.sin Group the world’s number one, then you still have to come back and get engaged to the apprentice of the King of a.s.sa.s.sins.”

Although w.a.n.g Xiaoyan did not get a satisfactory answer, now her father’s att.i.tude was a far cry from the past. This made w.a.n.g Xiaoyan’s heart still relieved.

“How did he do it?” w.a.n.g Songshan did not continue on this topic, but he asked.

“I also don’t know; I didn’t ask. We just came back from Europe after performing a mission.” w.a.n.g Xiaoyan said, “I just wanted to tell you about our affairs. I really like him… or I love him…”

“Yanyan, are you sure you fell in love with him?” w.a.n.g Songshan wished that w.a.n.g Xiaoyan would fall in love with Yang Ming.

“I am sure!” w.a.n.g Xiaoyan said affirmatively.

“Well, then you have to grasp it yourself. I won’t express any opinions now.” w.a.n.g Songshan said, “Let’s have an early rest. I have to call Old Charles and ask him what is going on.”

“Okay.” What w.a.n.g Xiaoyan said was true. She was not afraid that her father would go and seek evidence. It was better for him to go find proof.

When w.a.n.g Xiaoyan hung up, Yang Ming came over. When w.a.n.g Xiaoyan and her father talked on the phone, it was inconvenient for Yang Ming to listen by the side. So when the phone was connected, Yang Ming walked away.

“How did it go? Yanyan?” asked Yang Ming.

“My father, he didn’t say anything about us. He didn’t support it, nor did he approve of it. In short, let’s improve the a.s.sa.s.sin group as soon as possible,” said w.a.n.g Xiaoyan.

“It’s fine. We still have time, right?” Yang Ming didn’t feel anything in his heart. If worst comes to worst, he could just reveal his ident.i.ty and tell w.a.n.g Xiaoyan’s father that he was the apprentice of the King of a.s.sa.s.sins which was the future world’s number one. In this way, the Black b.u.t.terfly a.s.sa.s.sin Group would become the organization of the King of a.s.sa.s.sins, and it would naturally become the world’s number one.

“Yeah, we still have time!” w.a.n.g Xiaoyan listened to Yang Ming’s words, and her courage was boosted. “If worst comes to worst, I will just get pregnant with your child. See what my dad can do!”

“He will kill you!” Yang Ming was shocked after he heard it. He didn’t expect w.a.n.g Xiaoyan to make such a bold move! Never mind w.a.n.g Xiaoyan’s father; any father would go crazy after hearing that his unmarried daughter got pregnant with someone else during college. This was especially true for big families like w.a.n.g Xiaoyan’s family.

“That is a corpse and two lives, as long as he can do it!” w.a.n.g Xiaoyan laughed indifferently. “At that time, he also can’t help it; he can only accept the reality!”

“That’s also true.” Anyway, Yang Ming still had a trick up his sleeve, so he was not worried at the moment.

“Yeah, let’s work hard now…” w.a.n.g Xiaoyan said as she wrapped her arms around Yang Ming’s neck and whispered in his ear.

“Work hard for what…” Yang Ming was aroused by w.a.n.g Xiaoyan, but he still asked.

“Get pregnant with your child…” w.a.n.g Xiaoyan winked.

……

w.a.n.g Songshan naturally wouldn’t mind this. Even if w.a.n.g Xiaoyan were pregnant with Yang Ming’s child, w.a.n.g Songshan would only be happier.

Dialing the phone of Old Charles, w.a.n.g Songshan quietly waited for his answer. Although w.a.n.g Songshan and Old Charles were the second and third on the a.s.sa.s.sin ranking list, they had a good relations.h.i.+p with each other. Because they were both in Europe and were both Chinese, they usually called each other to greet each other.

“Is it Butler Zhou? Please transfer to Mr. Charles. I am w.a.n.g Songshan.” w.a.n.g Songshan said on the phone.

“Is it Mr. w.a.n.g of the b.u.t.terfly Family? Hi, Butler Zhou has retired. I am the person who took over his position; my surname is Zhang.” The man on the other side said respectfully.

“So it’s Butler Zhang. Hi.” w.a.n.g Songshan didn’t expect Butler Zhou to retire.

“Mr. w.a.n.g, please wait for a moment. I have already transferred your call to Mr. Charles’ room,” said Butler Zhang.

After a while, the voice of Old Charles came to the phone. “h.e.l.lo? Is it Songshan?”

“It’s me,” said w.a.n.g Songshan. “Old Charles, I heard that you want to hand over your a.s.sa.s.sin group to someone else to manage?”

“You know already?” Old Charles didn’t think it was strange because he had already guessed the relations.h.i.+p between w.a.n.g Xiaoyan and the b.u.t.terfly Family. Therefore, there was nothing unusual about w.a.n.g Songshan knowing about it. “Your daughter said it, right?”

“Yes. Do you know about Yanyan’s matters?” w.a.n.g Songshan was a little surprised. Old Charles actually knew about w.a.n.g Xiaoyan’s matters.

“I guessed it, but it had not been confirmed. The person who came to talk to me didn’t know the ident.i.ty of w.a.n.g Xiaoyan, so I didn’t ask much.” Old Charles said, “However, I remember that your daughter seems to be w.a.n.g Xiaoyan.”

“That is Yanyan’s boyfriend.” w.a.n.g Songshan said, “However, I am very puzzled. You actually handed the a.s.sa.s.sin group for them to handle?”

“Is this not wise?” Old Charles laughed.

“That’s not it, but Yanyan is still a child. Although she has made a name for herself…” w.a.n.g Songshan said halfway, but he was interrupted by Old Charles.

“No, no!” Old Charles waved his hand, “Could it be that you don’t know? Yanyan’s boyfriend, Yang Ming, is a descendant of the King of a.s.sa.s.sins, Fang Tian.”

” Ah ? You also know?” w.a.n.g Songshan was shocked and immediately understood that Old Charles was eyeing this.

“Of course, I know. If I didn’t know, how can I entrust the a.s.sa.s.sin group to him? And I am also interested in this!” Old Charles said, “I am not as lucky as you; you found a good son-in-law. My son does not live up to my expectations; he does not want to come back to inherit the a.s.sa.s.sin group. I can only entrust the a.s.sa.s.sin group to others to operate. Or else, what can I do?”

No wonder! w.a.n.g Songshan suddenly realized that after learning about Yang Ming’s life, Old Charles was a.s.sured to entrust the a.s.sa.s.sin group to Yang Ming.
