Before Shangguan Xuelan could speak, Shangguan Feiyun, who was at the side, hurriedly nodded in agreement.
“Of course, of course. How could our Xuelan reject Big Brother’s request? If Big Brother has anything to say, please just say it!”
“Dad, when did I say that I’m going to agree?”
Shangguan Xuelan’s face was full of shock. She didn’t expect her father to dig a hole for her at this time.
If she was asked to do something that went against her principles, she would definitely not do it.
So what if it was the Shangguan family? She couldn’t get anything from the Shangguan family that was related to her, so why did she have to do so much?
Shangguan Feiyun did not think so. This was his only chance to enter the main family. Naturally, he would not let his daughter ruin his plans. He said sternly, “What? Are you not willing to sacrifice for the Shangguan family? This is our family. Think carefully.”
“Brother, just say it. She’s just young. Don’t lower yourself to her level.”
Shangguan Xuelan almost exploded in anger!
Since when did her father make decisions for her? With her father’s talent, if she had not told her grandfather about their family’s incidents many times, her grandfather would have probably forgotten about her father.
She crossed her arms and leaned against the stool at the side. Let them say whatever they want. Anyway, she had made up her mind not to do what they were going to ask her to do. Shangguan Feiyun couldn’t be bothered with her sulking.
Even if she didn’t want to do it, he would force her to do it.
Shangguan Hai was a member of the Shangguan family after all. He saw through the way the father and daughter got along with each other at a glance. He smiled and tried to smooth things over. He said, “We’re all family. Why are you talking like you’re not part of the family? Feiyun, don’t always educate your daughter like this.”
Shangguan Feiyun hurriedly nodded in agreement. Shangguang Jin was watching the show from the side. How could he not see Shangguan Xuelan’s resistance? When his elder brother raised his request later, Shangguan Xuelan should make this matter as big as possible and directly get the father and daughter kicked out of the house.
“Alright, Big Brother, let’s just say what you have to say so that everyone here won’t be anxious from waiting.”
Shangguan Hai nodded. He looked at Shangguan Xuelan and said, “This matter is very simple. I know that your guild is the Mad Dragon Guild. Your guild master is Star Rebel. You only need to tell him one thing: our Shangguan family wishes to cooperate with him.”
“Can’t you just say it yourself? Why do you have to let me do it?”
Shangguan Xuelan rolled her eyes inwardly. Wasn’t it just relying on her friendship with the guild master to negotiate for them? Who knew how these people planned to trick the guild master?
Shangguan Hai didn’t mind his niece’s attitude towards him at all. He just smiled and said, “Child, you’re being insensible. You’ve been in the Mad Dragon Guild for so long, so you know your guild master very well.”
Shangguan Xuelan took a deep breath. Before she could say anything, she heard Shangguan Hai say, “Of course, if your guild master wants to cooperate with our Shangguan family, there are conditions as well.”
“First, we have to get Star Rebel to announce his class and talents. Only then will the Shangguan family be assured. Second, we have to take 60% of the profits. Of course, we won’t treat him badly either. Star Rebel can contact our family and we can give some of the business to him.”
As soon as these two conditions were put forward, no one from the Shangguan family objected. They even felt that these conditions were too easy on Star Rebel. In their eyes, Star Rebel was just a gamer. If it wasn’t for the fact that they were about to enter the Second World, they wouldn’t even have taken him seriously.
Shangguan Xuelan was so angry that she almost laughed when she saw these uncles’ expressions. Where did they get the courage to propose such conditions?
Not to mention the guild master’s identity in real life, even in the Second World, he was the target of many families. The Zhao and Zheng family had already made a move, but the Shangguan family was still trying to talk about the conditions of the cooperation and how the profits were going to be split? They sure do think they are some big shot!
Shangguan Xuelan calmed down as she thought about it. It was because of the stupidity of these uncles that the Shangguan family had stagnated for so many years.
“What’s wrong, Xuelan? Do you have any thoughts about this?” Shangguan Hai couldn’t help but ask when he saw that she didn’t say anything.
Shangguan Xuelan smiled and replied, “Uncle, let alone the Mad Dragon Guild, no guild in the Second World would agree to your conditions.”
The most ridiculous thing was that her uncle actually wanted the guild master to reveal his skill and talent. Wouldn’t that make the guild master a target in the Second World? She really didn’t know what her uncle was up to.
“Are my conditions not good enough for him?” Shangguan Hai frowned slightly. The fact that Star Rebel was able to curry favor with them was already a sign that the Shangguan family was showing him respect. If he still did not agree, then he would be ungrateful.
Shangguan Jin chimed in from the side, “Our Shangguan family has already made so many concessions. Is he still not going to agree? Xuelan, this is your fault. Even if your guild master doesn’t agree, you should go and make peace and help our Shangguan family get the most benefits.”
After all, they had a favor to ask of Xuelan. Usually, they would not speak to Shangguan Xuelan so politely. In addition, no one in the family knew Star Rebel’s origins, so Xuelan was the only one who could pull strings.
Shangguan Feiyun was also a little angry. He said, “My daughter is already showing Star Rebel enough respect by being his subordinate. Just tell him that you’re a member of the Shangguan family. Let’s see if he dares to disagree!”
At this moment, Shangguan Xuelan only felt that it was extremely ridiculous and absurd. She directly got up and pushed the chair away.
“What are you doing?”
Shangguan Hai’s expression was also ugly.
Shangguan Xuelan merely smiled and replied, “I just think that all of you are very laughable. It’s fine if you can’t show your sincerity when asking for help, but you still want to take advantage of others. If Grandpa was here, he would have scolded you guys a long time ago!”
“I can’t do this. If you have the ability, go find someone else to do it for you!”
After saying this, she walked out directly, ignoring Shangguan Feiyun’s objection. In her eyes, her good-for-nothing father was no different from these uncles.
“What a waste of time!” Shangguan Xuelan mumbled.
She had just left the house when she hurriedly took a taxi to the hospital. If she had known that she would come back to hear such stupid things, she wouldn’t have come.
These people didn’t tell her about her grandfather’s situation earlier. Thinking of this, she became even more anxious.
As soon as Shangguan Yulan left, Shangguan Hai couldn’t maintain his composure.
“She’s too willful, what a daughter. Feiyun, I’m not trying to criticize you, but you’re really not strict enough with her!”
Shangguan Jin was still fanning the flames at the side. As expected, the expressions of the other people present were very ugly. Shangguan Feiyun could only keep apologizing, saying that he had not taught his daughter well. “I’ll go back and persuade her!”
Shangguan Hai sneered, “Hmph! If she doesn’t want to help, then we don’t have to use her. 1’11 find someone else..”
