To Love You Again

Chapter 88 - Collaboration III

It was a peaceful day for Xiong De.

His business was doing great in Bahrain as well as in the black market. He managed to rope at least three elders in his side. Now his daughter was establishing a connection to the Guans. He was slowly building up his foundation. He was preparing his cards for a big game.

And everything was smooth for him.

Xiong De was happily eating his dinner when Xiong Wuyue stormed in the dining room.

"Dad!"

Xiong De almost got choked from his food.

"What's the matter?" He managed to say after wiping his mouth.

Xiong Wuyue joined Xiong De in the table.

"I talked to Guan Gao Huan."

Xiong De immediately gestured Xiong Wuyue to not speak about it.

He finished his food quickly and lead Xiong Wuyue to the study room.

Locking the door and inviting his daughter to sit in, he asked the question that he kept waiting for in this whole day.

"So, how do you do?"

Xiong Wuyue's little face scrunched up.

"What do you mean? Of course, I did great! I even managed to make him partnered with us!"

Xiong De's face lit up in one whole level.

" That's my daughter! How did you manage to do that?"

"Er..well I served him tea..." Xiong Wuyue tried to think hard about how she gets the deal.

She felt it so surreal and hazy.

One hour ago.

"Then what can you do for me in return?"

Guan Gao Huan still has those polite smile in his face. However, this time his golden eyes could not hold his terrifying greed.

Xiong Wuyue was stunned for a moment. She was not expecting that question.

"Ah. M-money. Connections from us. Business deals a-and.." Xiong Wuyue tried to think more about the offers that she knows of. She was not prepared for this question.

"Hahaha!" Guan Gao Huan laughed.

"Are you fooling around with me? I'm a Guan from a FIRST DESCENDANT. I have more money, wider connections, numerous business deals compare to a punny of yours. " Guan Gao Huan leaned back. He was smirking. His eyes were telling how foolish her answer was.

Xiong Wuyue got red from embarrassment. That's true. He was a mighty Guan from the first descendant. While she was a Xiong from the Second Branch. With this comparison, he has more to offer than her.

But then, what can she offer?

He had everything he wants. What more did he want?

Finally, Xiong Wuyue asked this question.

"What do you want?"

Guan Gao Huan laughed once again.

"That's the right answer. But can you get what I want?"

Xiong Wuyue bit her lips. She had short patience. Guan Gao Huan was clearly taunting her. Playing mind games with her.

"Even I'm from the second branch, I'm still a Xiong. We can get what you want for you. My father has a lot of connections. He is smart too. I assure you we can get it."

Guan Gao Huan tapped the table with his fingers. He was staring at Xiong Wuyue. His smile was erasable.

Xiong Wuyue kept waiting for his answer. His stares gave her goosebumps.

Finally, after a minute or two, Guan Gao Huan opened his mouth.

"I want the Young Miss of Xiong, Xiong Zhi."

Xiong Wuyue was stunned.

'Xiong Zhi? Why? Did he like that bitch?'

Xiong Wuyue's face was bitter. She doesn't like the thought that that girl managed to capture a man's heart. Especially a Guan.

She was about to refute and badmouth Xiong Zhi when Gao Huan speak again.

"Can you do that? Well, I speculate she's my fiance. But I want her to fall for me. I want her to depend on me. I want our future marriage to go smoothly. " Guan Gao Huan finger's stopped tapping on the table.

His golden eyes flashed.

"And what you have to do is to create an opportunity. Can. You. Do. That?"

Xiong Wuyue stared at him as well.

"Of course. It's easy." She had no choice but to say this.

"Very well. If there's anything, just contact my assistant. " Guan Gao Huan adjusts his necktie and stand up.

"To show my sincerity, I will secure your new business in the black market. I can see its potential. I'll invest as well. I'll send to you my assistant later on. "

Xiong Wuyue stands up as well. She was still daze as this talk was so smooth and short.

"Uhm-" She tried to talk but Guan Gao Huan was already at the door.

"Send my greetings to your father."

That was his last words to her.

Xiong De's brow was furrowed. Having a collaboration with Guan Gao Huan was not as easy as he expected.

Asking for Xiong Zhi was a tricky matter.

Xiong De knew why Guan Gao Huan was asking for Xiong Zhi. He was targeting the surname Xiong.

A Guan and A Xiong.

Two great families.

Having the two legendary surnames in your name would undoubtedly make you unstoppable. You would be limitless to everything.

No doubt this Guan Gao Huan was a greedy man. Greedier than them.

Xiong De doesn't care if Guan Gao Huan wanted to have Xiong Zhi. He could have the Young Miss and monopolize the Xiong.

Guan Gao Huan could dream of it.

If he wants to do that, there's no way Xiong De could stop him. With his power now against this Guan Gao Huan, there's no question who would win.

But if he borrows Guan Gao Huan's connection and resources he could step further towards his goals. And maybe in the future, he would have a chance to have a fair negotiation with Guan Gao Huan. And finally, get the entirety of Xiong from Guan's hands.

So for now, let's play in Guan Gao Huan's means.

But there was a major problem.

Xiong De fell in deep thought.

Xiong Zhi was like a treasure that was displayed in front of everyone.

They could see it, watch it, observe it from afar but they couldn't have it.

Nor owned it.

Having the young miss of Xiong in their hands was like a hot potato.

They could easily get burned by the Old Xiong.

If they made a move towards her or against her they would be instantly the center of attention. They would be watched like a hawk of every branch especially by the old Xiong.

If that happens, they would have to be more cautious and have to cool off for some time. Their business would be affected. Especially, Xiong De has a new business in the black market that needs constant innovations and developments. There were also issues in Bahrain that needs his presence. And keeping the secrets regarding the matters of the elders was really hard. He needs to pacify them that they were secured.

If they got the spotlight now, they would have unwanted attention. The elders that were involved in their private matters might get scared and blow things out.

Xiong De doesn't want that.

He needs a very critical plan to secure and place everything in the right way.

Everything was smooth.

He did not want to disturb its calmness.

This matter was a very tricky one.

Thinking of Guan Gao Huan who had a simple yet tricky request, Xiong De could not help but think of this.

'This Guan guy is not simple.'
