Chapter 482: Chapter 102 Young Master Quan’s Wife

"Young Master... you, you, you..." Gu Xiaoxi was at a loss for words staring at Quan Shaoqing.

He actually had the nerve to play dirty with her.

"I’m fine now, my brain is also intact. And, rest assured, I am not going to fall for you again. Conceited woman!" Quan Shaoqing looked away and strode out of the dining room.

Gu Xiaoxi, speechless, called out to his retreating back, "Quan Shaoqing, think it over. Next time we get a divorce, the property will have to be split in half."

"What if I never divorce in my lifetime?" Quan Shaoqing turned back, his face expressionless.

Gu Xiaoxi choked with anger again, "I, I, I... I’ll just have an affair..."

"Then you just try it!" Quan Shaoqing, with a cold look, turned to Uncle Zhou, "Go buy me a hundred axes now!"

Uncle Zhou was utterly confused, "Young Master, what do you need axes for?"

"If any apricot dares to branch out over the wall, I’ll chop off those tendrils ahead of time." Quan Shaoqing’s frigid voice drifted far away.

Gu Xiaoxi touched her wrist with pain, as if there were a hundred axes hanging over her head.

So scary!

But why!

Her mood was inexplicably good, even a voice in her heart was laughing...

Gu Xiaoxi quickly shook her head to make herself more serious.

However, her lips kept curling up, no matter how hard she tried to suppress them.

...

Later, she simply sat at the dining table and laughed her fill.

After all, Quan Shaoqing wasn’t in the dining room.

She was Young Master Quan’s Wife again now, whether Quan Shaoqing liked her or not.

In the future, she could rule the roost again.

...

"Uncle Zhou, after we finish eating, how about setting up two swings under the peach trees?" Gu Xiaoxi put down her chopsticks and said with a beaming smile.

"Sure! The Lady need not lift a finger, I will find someone to do it right away," Uncle Zhou said, beaming with joy.

Gu Xiaoxi hummed a tune, cracking sunflower seeds, as she walked along the path covered with peach blossoms.

Far ahead, she saw Quan Shaoqing sitting in a pavilion not far away, holding a military manual.

Gu Xiaoxi, in her little boots, stood outside the pavilion, leaped up with a jump, and sat opposite Quan Shaoqing, staring at him with big, rolling eyes.

"Go and play by yourself, don’t disturb me," Quan Shaoqing said without looking up.

"You read your book, I’ll enjoy my scenery, I won’t disturb you! But, I came to report to you about work, since you’re not listening, I’ll come back later," Gu Xiaoxi said, spitting out sunflower seed shells.

No need to say how she felt; just being back by Quan Shaoqing’s side, even if she couldn’t get too close, even just watching him from afar.

She could be the carefree, joyful Little Princess once more.

Quan Shaoqing then put down his book, raised an eyebrow and said, "Report on the work? Shouldn’t you first salute me? None of our soldiers dare to be so unruly as to jump and sit across from me."

Upon hearing this, Gu Xiaoxi tilted her head and glanced at Quan Shaoqing, "I’ll salute you, but only if you get the divorce papers ready first, otherwise, don’t even think about it. Being Young Master Quan’s Wife, I should at least exercise some of the wife’s privileges, otherwise what’s the use of this title?"

A twitch crossed Quan Shaoqing’s lips, Gu Xiaoxi certainly knew how to climb up the pole.

Thinking of threatening him with divorce!

Heh, to even dare to utter such words.

"Uncle Zhou! Uncle Zhou!..." Quan Shaoqing suddenly snapped his book shut and called out urgently.

The old butler, who was busy with the swing, hurried over.

"Young Master, what are your orders?"

"Go throw my marriage certificate into the stove and burn it. That thing annoys me just looking at it," Quan Shaoqing said expressionlessly.

"Ah!" Uncle Zhou was momentarily stunned. It took him quite a while to respond joyfully, "Okay, I’ll do it now!"

"Hey, burning the marriage certificate is useless if you’re mad at me..." Gu Xiaoxi said nonchalantly. But she stopped abruptly midway through her sentence.

She suddenly looked up at Quan Shaoqing, "Why burn the marriage certificate? How will we get a divorce then?"

"I told you, don’t you even think about it in this lifetime," Quan Shaoqing scoffed.

Gu Xiaoxi reflexively stood up from her seat and called out to Uncle Zhou, "Wait for me!"

If it’s going to be burned, the butler shouldn’t have to do it!

At his age, what if he burned the wrong documents!

This kind of thing, it’s best she comes in person...

Guaranteed not to grab the wrong ID, there won’t be any missing issues...

Gu Xiaoxi was about to catch up!

But from behind her, Quan Shaoqing suddenly grabbed her collar in a rage and commanded, "Sit down and report on your work. Find another excuse, and I’ll have you clean the garden."

"Tyrant, I want a divorce," Gu Xiaoxi said, tolerating him, without fighting back.

At this moment, the butler, very aptly standing on the balcony of Quan Shaoqing’s room, lit the conspicuous red booklet and shouted at them, "Young Master, I’ve burned it. Rest assured, in this lifetime, you two can’t get divorced."

Gu Xiaoxi’s mouth twitched! The butler was practically their second matchmaker.

"Look closely, the marriage certificate is gone. I’ve ensured this marriage, both parties, whoever wants a divorce, must first pay the state a divorce penalty of 99.9 billion. If you don’t have the money, then just make do!" said Quan Shaoqing with a cold expression.

So cruel!

Gu Xiaoxi felt a chill!

Quan Shaoqing added, "If you want a divorce, prepare the penalty yourself. I’ll be waiting for you!"

This man is too damn scheming.

He’s set on chaining her to his belt for life.

99.9 billion in divorce penalty isn’t 999 dollars!

By this calculation, she couldn’t afford the divorce in three lifetimes!

However, although Gu Xiaoxi’s face showed annoyance, her heart was already blooming with joy.

After all, she had never planned to marry someone else in this lifetime.

Since he had pre-booked her for three lifetimes, then so be it.

Not loving doesn’t mean they can’t be together.

Keep a distance, just being in sight of each other is enough!

"Mi Xi is a normal person. His ’Luo Luo’ is actually Mi Luo. I’ve told you about this before. That coffin, I snuck a look at it once, it’s where her sister’s body is kept. As for their story, it’s a long one, I’ll tell you slowly..."

Gu Xiaoxi told Quan Shaoqing everything Mi Xi had shared with her.

After listening, Quan Shaoqing furrowed his brows, "The Vampire Royalty—if this human trafficking is related to them, they won’t be easy to handle. What we can do now is to reduce the trafficking within our country. As for other countries, the International Alliance will handle it. They have even more powerful experts than the Military Department."

Gu Xiaoxi sighed and said solemnly, "This means we’ll face even bigger problems. With the advent of Special Abilities in this world, some rarely seen beings are becoming restless."

"I’m thinking if we could gather the Special Ability Users from Section Z, and then conduct specialized training targeted at their Special Abilities. Enhancing everyone’s Skills further and if coupled with professional weapons, it could make everyone’s combat effectiveness a lot stronger," said Quan Shaoqing.

Hearing this, Gu Xiaoxi nodded in agreement, "That sounds like a good idea! However, easier said than done, it requires meticulous research by scientists."

"I’m already preparing to apply for it," said Quan Shaoqing.

The two sat in the pavilion, with petals occasionally falling around them.

Gu Xiaoxi sometimes turned her head to stealthily admire Quan Shaoqing’s handsome features, her mood delightful.

Quan Shaoqing sat in the pavilion, holding a book and pondered for a moment before saying, "I think we have time to visit Mi Xi."

"What?" Gu Xiaoxi didn’t understand what he meant.

Quan Shaoqing put down his book and instructed, "Call Mi Xi, and say you want to meet him tonight."

"You want to meet him?" Gu Xiaoxi asked, confused.

Now that they had a lead on the missing persons case, the next step was to find a way to capture a vampire or two to confirm this matter.

Mi Xi only knew about it, but he had no evidence.

"Is there a problem?" Quan Shaoqing looked at Gu Xiaoxi with a cold gaze.

Gu Xiaoxi nodded, "No problem, it’s just that he seems to have nothing to investigate."

"Even if he is innocent, he has two different beings beside him. For the safety of the people, we need to keep an eye on him," said Quan Shaoqing, urging Gu Xiaoxi to make the call.

Gu Xiaoxi had intended not to meet with Mi Xi again since the man was too cunning.

She called Mi Xi, and the call was answered almost immediately.

"Are you free tonight? I want to come over and see Luo Luo," said Gu Xiaoxi.

Surprised and delighted, Mi Xi agreed, "Sure! Luo Luo likes you a lot. What time will you come? I’ll drive over to pick you up."

"No need, I’ll come over tonight," said Gu Xiaoxi.

She didn’t tell Quan Shaoqing directly about going there, after all, Mi Xi was wary of the military. If he knew about Quan Shaoqing’s identity, he definitely wouldn’t agree to the meeting.

But now that Quan Shaoqing was aware of his matters, a meeting was inevitable sooner or later.
