Chapter 327: Yan Kuan’s Past
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The fun of playing cards was naturally ruined by the sudden appearance of the old childhood sweetheart. Shen Xiaoxiao was especially curious about the matter between Yan Kuan and the old childhood sweetheart, Leng Xi. She was really too curious. She was so curious that she wanted to know all the details.
“Just tell me. Your children want to know. Really.”
Yan Kuan looked at this playful woman with amusement. She was getting more and more eccentric. Even the child in her belly was brought up. Did she really want to know so much?
Her personality had changed quite a lot after she got pregnant. At least, before she got pregnant, her curiosity was definitely not that great. Moreover, she definitely did not dare to ask him this.
Of course, he still liked Shen Xiaoxiao this way in their relationship. When she pestered him to ask, he felt that this little thing really cared about him. Therefore, if she wanted to know all of this, but she would not ask... Instead, he would feel a chill in his heart. Thinking about it... Why did he feel like he was being a little b*tchy?
“Alright, sit properly. Why are you shaking? If you want to know, you’ll have to pay a price.”
Shen Xiaoxiao looked at Yan Kuan’s scheming expression. This beast, what was he thinking about? Where was he looking?

Yan Kuan was implying something. Shen Xiaoxiao naturally knew that this beast could not hold it in for a few months, so she immediately played along and teased him:
“Yeah, I wouldn’t have thought so if you didn’t tell me. This is indeed a few times bigger. My figure now is much more pleasing to the eye than before.”
Yan Kuan raised his eyebrows. Oh, she still dared to tease him?
“Let me measure it. Let me see if it’s really a few times bigger.” After Yan Kuan said that, he reached out his hand to touch it. Shen Xiaoxiao twisted her body, and Yan Kuan missed. Of course, he was really afraid of hurting this little thing. Otherwise, how could Yan Kuan not be able to touch it with his skills?
“Aren’t you afraid of hurting your child? How dare you beat me up?”
Yan Kuan was depressed. How could he beat her up? Hadn’t he not touched her yet? And this little eyeball was staring at him with her round eyes. No matter how he looked at it, she was so adorable.
“Do you want to try it if I really beat you up? Good girl, let me have a taste. Look at your husband. He has been holding it in for so many months.”
Shen Xiaoxiao looked at Yan Kuan’s useless appearance. Why had there been such a huge change? Where was the cold and arrogant Yan Kuan from before?
“Look at how useless you are. I now have twins. Do you dare? I don’t dare if you dare. You are too bold. I really don’t know if you love me or not. How can you disregard me and the child for your own selfish desires? You really make me sad.”
The more Shen Xiaoxiao spoke, the more engrossed she became. Even she herself felt as if he did not care about her. This pretentious little appearance made Yan Kuan feel speechless and heartache. He was really looking for trouble himself. What was the point of provoking a pregnant woman? She was full of herself. This was great. She no longer had any desires. Her heart was filled with heartache.
“The child you’re carrying must be a daughter. Why have you become so fond of crying? Look at your red eyes. Okay, okay, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have ignored your health. I’m a b*stard. Didn’t you want to know about this old childhood sweetheart? I’ll tell you, I’ll tell you.”
Shen Xiaoxiao burst into laughter and smiled. She immediately stopped her sadness. The extent of her change in expression made Yan Kuan flabbergasted. It seemed that this girl had played a trick on him. However, it was fine as long as she did not cry. He could not bear to see her tears. As long as her eyes were red... His heart felt like it was being cut by a knife. It hurt so much that he was flustered.
And Shen Xiaoxiao, who was at the side, looked like a petty person who had achieved his goal. ‘Little fellow, you want to fight with me? How can I not teach you a lesson?’
“I’ve told you before. After I ran away from the Ouyang family, I was lucky enough to meet my foster father. He took me in and treated me like his own son. This Leng Xi is my foster father’s only daughter. The Dark Empire cannot be passed down to a woman. Moreover, whether it’s her ability or herself, she definitely cannot support the entire Dark Empire.”
“She was a typical petite young lady. She had been spoiled from a young age and was unruly and willful. The old man was a grown man and didn’t know how to teach his daughter, so he had always indulged and doted on her.”
“However, she was his only daughter, after all. The old man planned to let me marry her. In the future, I would be a real member of his family and no one would say anything even if I inherited the Dark Empire.”
“However, his plans couldn’t keep up with the changes. The old man had always wanted me to agree to marry Leng Xi. However, I didn’t agree, so the old man’s feelings for me became weaker and weaker. However, at that time, I was no longer the same boy who was afraid of everything, or a boy who didn’t know anything.”

“Everyone knew that the Four Hall Masters had been harboring disloyalty for a long time. Moreover, they had revealed that Leng Xi was with that man when the old man was in poor health. Everyone knew what they were up to.”
“Except for Leng Xi. She thought that she had met the love of her life, so she even decided to elope with that man to blackmail her father into agreeing to her marriage with that man.”
“The old man firmly refused, so Leng Xi took the initiative to elope with that man. The old man knew that this matter was getting more and more irresolvable, and his body couldn’t support it anymore. Before he died, he took the initiative to let me take over the throne. He also made me promise that I would treat Leng Xi well in the future, and then left a mess for me to leave behind.”
“In the past, in order to take over the territory of the Dark Empire, Dark 1, Yun Qi, and I had gone through countless hardships. Now that the Dark Empire was stable, Leng Xi suddenly ran back... She really thinks that the entire Dark Empire revolves around her when the old man was around.”
Shen Xiaoxiao was surprised when she heard this. She did not expect that things would still be like this. However, it was really melodramatic. Moreover, that Leng Xi was also so simple-minded that she did not even know that she had been used.
“There were so many people in the Dark Empire who actually allowed Leng Xi to run away with that man? Did the old man you mentioned not make any preparations beforehand?”
Shen Xiaoxiao was always able to grasp the crux of the problem. Hearing her question, Yan Kuan smiled but did not say anything. Shen Xiaoxiao immediately saw some clues from Yan Kuan’s expression. She was immediately shocked and said,?“It was you. You let them go. You let them go on purpose?”
“Hahahaha, you’re really smart. Didn’t they say that a woman will be dumb for three years after being pregnant? Why don’t you look like you’ve become dumb?”
Shen Xiaoxiao did not care about Yan Kuan’s joke at this moment. Instead, she said to Yan Kuan in extreme surprise and disbelief,?“Why did you deliberately let Leng Xi go? Didn’t you say that your foster father was about to die? What were you doing?”
Yan Kuan saw the change in Shen Xiaoxiao’s expression. There was no fear, nor did she feel uncomfortable because of his viciousness. Yan Kuan stretched out his hand and pulled her into his embrace, saying:
“Xiaoxiao, you must remember that you should never underestimate a man’s ambition. If a man has never obtained anything before, then he will try his best to obtain it. Moreover, the old man and I have always used and been used. Even if I don’t let Leng Xi go, the Four Hall Masters will definitely not let him live another day.”
“Before he died, he wanted me to inherit the Dark Empire as a ploy against me. He knew that I let Leng Xi go, so he wanted to take revenge on me. According to the situation at that time, he definitely wouldn’t have thought that I had the ability to turn the tide.. He definitely wanted to see how I would be eaten alive by those people, but unfortunately, he was destined to be disappointed.”
