Signing In At The Civil Affairs Bureau, I Was Rewarded With A Gorgeous Wife

"Uncle Kang, are you going to slap me or not? If not, I might as well sit back down."

Ouyang Jie, bold as a calf not afraid of tigers, asked.

Kang Wei turned his head and glared at his daughter, realizing there was so much he didn't know!

"Smack!"

To the stunned onlookers, Kang Xi's delicate hand sailed across Ouyang Jie's face with a slap. She hated the man before her so deeply that, in her eyes, Ouyang Jie was even more despicable than Song Yun!

"Xi Xi! What are you doing!"

Kang Wei was shocked by his daughter's action, especially since this was taking place in the Ouyang Family's home!

The offer to let you slap them was a gesture of face-saving and a step down for the Kang Family. After continuous negotiation, the Kang Family was bound to receive satisfactory compensation.

But now? What have you done?

You've actually slapped the Ouyang heir in the face???

This is damn too surreal!!!

Suppressing the anger in his chest, Kang Wei said in a low voice, "We'll settle this when we get back!"

After chastising his daughter, he turned back to Ouyang Shu, the elder, and said apologetically, "My little girl is ignorant, please forgive her!"

"How dare I provoke the Kang Family? Now that the slap has been returned, is there anything else you need?"

Ouyang Shu, the elder, said with a sonorous voice, clearly displeased.

After all, slapping the family heir in front of their elders was tantamount to grinding the Ouyang Family's face into the dirt and then spitting on it, wasn't it?!

"This... well, we will take our leave now..." Kang Wei said with a helpless sigh.

Ouyang Shu showed no response, and with that, Kang Wei's last bit of hope dissipated.

"Forty-nine City is full of uncertainty. It's best for you to return to Magic Capital as soon as possible. That's your home turf; there are places the reach of these families in Forty-nine City just can't extend to!"

Ouyang Shu appeared a bit unhappy as he spoke.

"Since that's the case, we'll head back to Magic Capital today, since everything that needed to be handled has been taken care of."

Song Bu was indifferent about where he was; although he had countless friends of the fairer sex in Forty-nine City, recently his luck had been bad, bringing him trouble even when he wasn't looking for it, so he hadn't met up with any of them.

"By the way, there's a matter in Magic Capital that requires attention, and I've recommended Xiao Jie. It will let him gain some experience, and you can lend a hand too while you're there."

Ouyang Shu, the elder, said grimly, "My grandson can't be slapped for nothing, can he?"

"Hahaha, Elder, what are you saying? Just tell us your request; if we can help, we absolutely will!"

Song Bu said with a sheepish laugh.

"It's not a big trouble, just that a holiday fishing village by the Magic Capital seaside is notorious for overcharging customers year-round, creating a bad impression if those people continue to act with impunity."

Ouyang Shu spoke slowly: "These people are very clever; they don't overcharge foreigners or locals, they target tourists from other regions. The local bureau of industry and commerce receives complaints about this almost ninety percent of the time!"

"Elder, what do you want done?"

Song Yun asked curiously.

"It's up to you, but I must warn you, those people are not easy to mess with. They have a well-established industry chain, and any rash action on your part may lead to violent resistance."

Song Yun didn't take these words seriously after hearing them; Forty-nine City was a place where you could hit nine officials with ten bricks, a real deep pond.

"While it's still early, we should head off to the old man's," they said.

Old Master Ouyang nodded, not bothering to stand up to see them off; after all, everyone was so familiar with each other, there was no need for such empty formalities.

"Big Uncle, I've just made an enemy of Kang Xi's wife, and I'm not in Forty-nine City right now. What if she goes looking for Xiao Wan's trouble later?"

Ouyang Jie said with a cheeky look next to Song Yun, intentionally stirring Song Yun to take Xiao Wan with him this time as well.

Song Yun really got annoyed by the nagging, so he called Xiao Wan, and she immediately agreed with joy when she heard they were going to Magic Capital.

It made Song Yun silently curse that Ouyang Jie really had dumb luck!Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Since the Xiao Family lived far from Ouyang Jie, Song Yun directly asked Lu Guan to take Xiao Wan to the airport, where everyone would meet.

"Husband, we're finally going back to Magic Capital."

In the car, Ye Qingqing leaned into Song Yun's embrace and said softly, "I wonder if Si Yi and Wen Shu have been good and stayed at home."

"All I know is that once we get back, we'll have to sleep in separate rooms again," Song Yun said helplessly. "I just don't know when this will ever end!"

"Hehehe, we still have Si Yi~"

The two of them chatted and laughed all the way to the airport.

When they came, the Ouyang Family sent a car to pick them up, and when they left, the Ouyang Family's motorcade was still there to send them off, proving that the bond between the Ouyang Family and Song Yun had grown deeper.

"Big Uncle, where is Xiao Wan?"

Ouyang Jie acted like a monkey, jumping around and scratching his head.

Song Yun didn't know what the kid saw in Xiao Wan, or if Xiao Wan had cast some sort of spell on him!

Even though his own sister really was quite a stunner, as Ouyang Jie, the heir of the Ouyang Family, what kind of woman hadn't he seen? Why would he be so smitten???

"Ouyang Jie, tell me the truth, why do you like my sister?"

Song Yun asked, his arm around Ouyang Jie's shoulder.

"Ah?"

Ouyang Jie paused, sheepishly smiling and said, "Naturally, because Xiao Wan is beautiful and has a good personality..."

"Bullshit, all that's just an excuse!" Song Yun cursed and said, "Come clean with me, or forget about pursuing Xiao Wan, I'll make sure you never see her again!"

"No, please!"

Ouyang Jie was caught in a dilemma, and after looking around to ensure no one was eavesdropping, he whispered, "Actually, I met Xiao Wan five years ago!"

"Back then, Xiao Wan's college came to perform at the August 1st cultural gala, and due to the scorching heat, many of her classmates either cut corners or straight up quit the performance, but Xiao Wan seriously completed her whole routine.

Later, as I was passing backstage, I heard her classmates say that Xiao Wan had worn her heels raw from rehearsing the dance; that performance was like dancing on knives. At that moment, I felt this girl was adorably foolish but due to my status, I didn't approach her. It's been a regret of mine, and to think, I didn't expect Xiao Wan to be your sister!

This just gave me the chance to fulfill my dream!"

"???"

Song Yun's face was full of question marks. This encounter was just too damn ridiculous. Was this a common affliction among scions of great houses???

They don't fancy women of equal strength, but are extremely friendly, even infatuated, with women weaker than themselves, captivated by their sparkles.

But he thought about it; a woman looking at you with pitiable eyes can always provoke a man's deepest desires to protect, whereas women of equal status, thank heavens if they don't have to protect you themselves, let alone being protected by you!
