Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The green garden exhaled a breath of white mist. The weather here was much better than the jungle, but there was still a bit of coolness.
After taking a stroll, she stretched her limbs and pretended not to care as she looked around.
No wonder, no wonder she did not see Yan Kuan this early in the morning. When she was in the jungle, she wished he could put herself on his belt. Now that he was in the city, he actually let down his guard.
After all this, they weren’t afraid at all. was this the base of the Dark Empire? Even if it wasn’t a base, it was definitely one of their strongholds.
Looking at the cameras all around, as well as the posts occupied by every sniper point at the entrance, this place was even more secure than an iron wall.
The Black Emperor really had the capital to be arrogant.
After casually moving her limbs, she turned around and walked back to the villa’s hall. The woman standing at the entrance was at most in her twenties. She wore a butler’s uniform and looked professional and capable, but the way she looked at Shen Xiaoxiao was not friendly.
Since she was brought back to this place by Yan Kuan yesterday morning, although this woman looked serious in front of Yan Kuan.
But as a woman, her intuition could still detect the difference.
Actually, there was nothing wrong with being Yan Kuan’s woman. She had the most gorgeous clothes in the season, expensive jewelry, and a gold card that had unlimited usage.
Of course, the only thing you had to pay was freedom. Your freedom.
Shen Xiaoxiao did not know how many women had been brought back by Yan Kuan, and she knew that she would not be the last. However, living here was not something she could decide.
Perhaps the only thing she could decide was to make certain people or things that were an eyesore disappear completely.
She was Shen Xiaoxiao, the unique existence of the Shen family, the existence that the Shen family hoped for. Her battlefield was not a woman’s harem, nor was it surrounded by Yan Kuan like a dodder flower.

If she, Shen Xiaoxiao, was still a woman like the one in her previous life, perhaps she would be able to adapt to the current life very well. She would also become accustomed to or not care about the butler’s gaze at all.
But she was not. She did not have that much time and energy to focus on this group of women, scheming against them and scheming against each other.
Her sky was not like this, nor should it be like this.
Therefore, even if Yan Kuan had forged a magnificent golden house for her, it would not be able to trap her heart that wanted to roam the sky.
Revenge was the only thing that she, Shen Xiaoxiao, had to do to survive this life.
She walked in and did not even look at the housekeeper. Even though her eyes were filled with contempt and scrutiny, she pretended not to see anything.
However, she was a little curious. She knew that she was Yan Kuan’s woman, but this housekeeper had not only been unhappy since yesterday, but she had also added enough sugar to the milk last night. These little tricks really made her a little puzzled.
It was impossible for Yan Kuan to let such an unprofessional subordinate take care of his daily meals up close. Did you think that Yan Kuan did not know that she was like this?

No, last night she picked up the milk and just took a sip before putting it down. Yan Kuan had always been very careful in these areas. Even the milk was a must-drink for Yan Kuan every night. She only took a sip before putting it down and glanced at Yan Kuan. Yan Kuan did not say anything.
Normally, he would have forced her to drink it. However, last night, he only glanced at her and did not do anything else.
Therefore, she always felt that Yan Kuan’s attitude towards this female butler was very strange and subtle.

It was only eight o’clock. Shen Xiaoxiao had just sat down when Yan Kuan walked in wearing sportswear. He looked like he had just finished his exercise. His hair was still dripping with sweat, and a few drops were dripping from the back of his ears and neck onto his bronze-colored skin, he looked exceptionally seductive.
She averted her eyes to avoid this man, who she could not ignore. She even felt that he was exceptionally handsome and cold. Today, he had a different feeling.
“You’re up early. It seems that your stamina is pretty good. You’ll start training with me tomorrow morning.”
After saying this, Yan Kuan went upstairs to wash up, leaving Shen Xiaoxiao standing in the living room in a mess. What a shameless man. Just now, she actually felt that he had a different feeling. Look at what he said. What did he mean by “stamina is pretty good”? Did he think that she couldn’t hear what he said?
Didn’t he just say that she had good stamina when she was doing that? Her stamina was good, so there was no need for him to say it. However, Shen Xiaoxiao was somewhat interested in what Yan Kuan said about training together. She really wanted to see what the training in the Dark Empire was like.
“Stupid.”
This voice was too soft, but Shen Xiaoxiao’s hearing was amazing. This woman was really bold.
Did she think that she, Shen Xiaoxiao, was easy to bully? She wasn’t even afraid of Yan Kuan. Why would she be afraid of such a woman? Hmph.
In the dining room, breakfast was placed one after another. Yan Kuan looked at the newspaper in his hand and said to Shen Xiaoxiao, “If you’re bored, I’ll get someone to take you out for a walk.”
“Go out? I can go out?”
Shen Xiaoxiao was a little surprised. She didn’t expect that Yan Kuan would actually allow her to go out. She thought that he would allow her to move around in this villa because the security here was very tight, but there was no hope of getting out.
But now he said that she could get out? This was really, really a big surprise.
However, this surprise had not even lasted for five seconds before it was completely wiped out by Yan Kuan’s next action.
He reached into his pocket and took out a silver bracelet. Shen Xiaoxiao did not even have time to look at it before he put it on her wrist.
She reached out and hurriedly pulled it, but this was clearly not an ordinary silver bracelet. However, no matter how hard she tried, she could not pull it off. Moreover, the size was just right, neither too big nor too small. There was absolutely no possibility of taking it off unless her hand was chopped off or her hand bones were crushed.
She was so angry. Did he really think she was a dog or something? Why did he tie such a thing to her? Was he crazy?
“Alright, stop pulling. It’s made of a special material. In this world, no one can take it off except for me. There’s an accurate positioning system inside. I can find you no matter which corner you are in.”
No wonder, no wonder this bastard allowed her to go out. So he was waiting for her here. Good, he actually used this move. Good, this was really good.
Shen Xiaoxiao was furious at Yan Kuan, but in terms of martial arts, she could not compare to him. In terms of strength, she was a street away.
But if she really had to suffer this sullen mood, how could she be willing?
The exquisite breakfast on the table was placed there, but a bowl of white porridge was placed in front of her and Yan Kuan. Shen Xiaoxiao was in a bad mood at this moment, so she held the bowl of white porridge and stirred it up.
As if wanting to stir up her anger, Yan Kuan glanced at her from the gap of the newspaper and ignored her. He couldn’t help but smile. This little thing was really very cute.
“Eat well. These are Chinese dishes specially prepared for you. It’s been more than ten years. Compared to you, you also miss the food of your hometown.”
Shen Xiaoxiao was stunned. Yan Kuan actually said this. She lowered her head and looked at the dishes on the table. When she thought of the dishes from yesterday afternoon and evening, she swallowed the anger in her heart.
This man always did these small favors.
Humph, she would never appreciate it. Absolutely not.
Shen Xiaoxiao held the porridge in her hand. This was different from the gruel porridge that she had eaten in the secret prison for ten years.
It was warm and thick. However, it was also because of this that Shen Xiaoxiao smelled a very strange smell when she had just served the porridge in front of her.
She quietly glanced at Yan Kuan who was reading the newspaper. Seeing that he was still reading the newspaper and did not seem to want to eat anything, Shen Xiaoxiao secretly glanced at the female butler who was standing respectfully not far away.
She rolled her eyes and threw the bowl of hot porridge in her hand at the female butler.
