Acknowledging Kinship with the Magic City's Young Lady

"What 'sister'!"

Huang Lu finally showed emotion, her expression changing rapidly as she glared at Xu Yi.

The three of them, including Li Wen, watched on, utterly bewildered.

This was the first time they had seen Miss Huang display such strong emotions.

The three of them thought: But why do we have this ominous premonition?

Xu Yi took out the incomplete jade pendant. Although a long time had passed, it still retained its lustrous sheen.

Only by wearing it close to the body constantly could it achieve such an effect.

Even though the system was a shrewd merchant, it was truly thoughtful.

"This is...!!"

[Surprise Value +400]

Huang Lu's pupils contracted violently.

Then, disregarding the gazes of those around her, she fiercely grabbed Xu Yi's collar.

"Where did you get this jade pendant? Tell me quickly!"

Xu Yi's face showed deep sorrow. "When we parted back then, my sister smashed her jade pendant and gave it to me."

Upon hearing this, Huang Lu's body swayed for a moment.

Then, as if remembering something, she directly pulled up Xu Yi's sleeve.

A scar came into view.

[Surprise Value +1000]

"Brother..."

"You're my brother!"

"Brother, I've finally found you."

Drip, drip~

Tears fell onto the scar on Xu Yi's wrist.

Xu Yi pretended not to hear her, continuing to speak to himself. "It's my fault as an older brother for being useless, for never being able to find her. Now I'm about to die, and she's what I worry about most."

[Guilt Value +1000]

The three who were watching the drama suddenly shivered.

"Sister, where did you go? Why can't brother find you? Are you hiding because you dislike how poor brother is?"

[Guilt Value +1000]

There's no chance to look for you again in this life; it'll have to be in the next. However, Miss Huang is beautiful and kind-hearted; she'll help me continue looking for you."

[Guilt Value +1000]

Listening to Xu Yi's monologue, the guilt in Huang Lu's heart was as high as a mountain.

"Brother, it's me. I'm your sister."

[Bewilderment Value +500]

[Bewilderment Value +500]

[...]

The four of them looked bewildered and shocked.

"What are you talking about? Just a few words, and the young lady of Magic City has become your sister?"

Xu Yi gave a wry smile. "Miss Huang, please don't joke around. My sister's name is Huang Tian."

"I changed my name later... If you don't believe me, look at this."

As he spoke, Huang Lu quickly took out the other half of the jade pendant.

When the two pieces were put together, they formed a complete pattern.

Huang Lu was overjoyed and wept.

"Sister, you really are my sister!" Xu Yi also exclaimed with wild joy.

"Sister, I've finally found you."

Ji Bowen thought: Stop the family reunion... Can you two consider the feelings of us three?

Xu Yi's laughter suddenly came to an abrupt halt.

"Sister, it's wonderful to find you before I die. I have no regrets."

Huang Lu's expression turned cold, her icy gaze seeming capable of killing.

"Brother, with me here, no one dares to touch you."

As she spoke, she turned her head, "Are you guys the ones who wanted to kill my brother?"

"No, no... arguing is just exchanging harsh words. We won't actually do it."

"Who told you to say those harsh words to my brother?"

[Negative Emotion Points +200 * 3]

Damn it...

The three of them were completely stunned.

Who the hell knew he was your brother?

We were at our wit's end, and this kid managed to turn the tables.

You're lucky!

Lao Di, let's go!

Just as the three of them reached the door, they were stopped by the bodyguards beside Huang Lu.

The three immediately showed panicked expressions, but they forced themselves to remain calm.

"Miss, what are you doing?"

"You're not allowed to leave! For Xu Yi Gege's safety, you should stay."

"Killing people is against the law. Even if you're the young lady of Magic City, you can't disregard the law."

"I don't care! If you wanted to kill Xu Yi Gege, then I'll kill you first."

The three of them: "..."

Silence is the Kangqiao of tonight~

The three were completely panicked, cold sweat streaming down their faces.

But Huang Lu had already taken out a knife.

Others just threatened, she actually pulled a knife and went for it.

"Sis! Sis!"

Xu Yi also panicked and quickly stopped her.

He hadn't expected his sister to be so fierce.

"Killing is against the law, let's not do this."

"Then we just let them go? What if they try to harm you again next time?"

Plop~

The three of them no longer cared about their dignity as company CEOs and immediately knelt down to Huang Lu.

"We don't dare anymore!"

"Who would dare to kill the young lady's brother?"

"We were blind just now, we know we were wrong."

Seeing Huang Lu's expression soften slightly, Xu Yi slowly took the knife from her hand.

"Brother, then I'll listen to you. How should we punish them?"

Xu Yi felt incredibly emotional inside.

This is what having connections means.

The enemies that Uncle Li could only face passively were now at Huang Lu's mercy.

Xu Yi looked at Li Wen, "Uncle Li, how should they be dealt with?"

"Uncle Li..."

"Uncle Li?!"

Li Wen snapped out of his shock. In just a few dozen seconds, he had devised a plan.

"Dismantle the companies of their three families, and then have Furun Group acquire them piece by piece."

Shen Shi roared angrily, "Li, don't go too far! If you take our companies, how are we supposed to live? You might as well just kill us."

As soon as he finished speaking, Huang Lu snatched the knife back again.

Shen Shi: "..."

Gu Feng looked at Huang Lu with pleading eyes, "Miss, is there a compromise? We can't handle this punishment."

Huang Lu looked at Xu Yi, "Brother, what do you think?"

Xu Yi: "I'll listen to Uncle Li."

Li Wen: "I'll follow Miss Huang's lead."

The three of them: Are you guys playing 'drop the handkerchief'?

Xu Yi stated decisively, "We'll do as Uncle Li said and take over the three companies. That way, they won't have the strength to seek revenge on me."

Ji Bowen was so enraged he almost spat out a mouthful of blood. "You little beast! You're so greedy! So young, yet more ruthless than Li Wen."

A cold glint flashed in Huang Lu's eyes. "How dare you insult my brother. Open your mouth."

The bodyguards below carried out the order expressionlessly.

Slap, slap, slap~

The only sound left in the conference room was the crisp crack of slaps.

The blows were fierce and vicious, even knocking out two of his gold teeth.

Seeing this, the other two immediately became as quiet as cicadas in winter.

"I'm informing the three of you, not discussing it. Since my brother has decided, you have no other choice. Will you voluntarily hand over your companies, or will Magic City get involved?

You choose."

Tears of heartache and unwillingness flowed from the eyes of the three men, but seeing the imminent slaps, they could only nod with pain.

Damn it! We were so close!

Why does this son of a bitch keep claiming relatives?

He said he was an orphan, so why does he have more relatives than my family?

At this moment, the resentment the three felt towards Xu Yi could feed ten evil sword immortals.

"Young Miss, can we leave now?"

"You stay."

Xu Yi pointed at Ji Bowen.

"Sister, we can acknowledge each other today thanks to him. He brought me here."

Ji Bowen was so moved he was close to tears.

Repaying kindness, a good child.

I was wrong to misunderstand you just now...

[Gratitude Points +30]

"If his subordinates hadn't held guns to the back of our heads, we definitely wouldn't have come.

Fortunately, the gun didn't go off, or I wouldn't be seeing you."

Huang Lu's eyebrows shot up, and she couldn't help but draw her sword again.

"You really intended to kill my brother! Hit him!"
