The Lovely Heiress Is Actually A God Beast-Chapter 1316: Cowardly Xiao Yang

Both were the most valued young members of the family, the most gifted heirs. Back in the day, they explored, dug up tombs, went to many dangerous places together, and completed many dangerous tasks together.

Boss Xiao Yang used to be reckless, only seeking to unlock unknown fields and discover all the mysterious people.

But since his father was severely injured by the Ghost King during a mission and died rapidly, Boss Xiao Yang changed.

When his father was alive, he felt uncomfortable staying in the store for long, couldn’t sit still for a moment, and didn’t want to spend his days in the shop. He loved running outside, making friends with like-minded people, and accomplishing tough missions together, believing this life was exciting and best suited for him.

But after his father passed, it was as if he grew up instantly.

The guy who used to feel like ants were crawling on him if he sat in the shop for too long now spends entire days there, even unwilling to step outside.

The once unruly young man had his edges smoothed by people, events, and time. He became steady, could stay put, lost his passion, and grew fearful.

Boss Xiao Yang lowered his gaze, trying to save face, "I’m just being cautious."

"Cautious?" Nie Qing unabashedly exposed him: "Aren’t you afraid that if you die, no one will continue to watch over this shop? You should marry and have children earlier to keep the legacy going."

Boss Xiao Yang pressed his lips tightly.

Nie Qing glanced sideways at him, "Remember that woman you always had with you during missions? Where is she now?"

Boss Xiao Yang’s face darkened for a moment.

"Oh, got dumped, huh?"

"Stop talking, you shouldn’t open your mouth."

"I insist on speaking! She used to look at you with such admiration, said she admired you. But then, because you changed, that light in her eyes disappeared. You never contacted her again, but she kept taking missions. I met her several times. She’s changed too, no longer just following you, but standing strong on her own."

"Stop it."

"Everyone’s changing, growing, and you’re stuck in place. If it continues, the Yang family will become a lower-tier family in the Mysterious Sect. Are you okay with that?"

"Please, just stop." Boss Xiao Yang clawed at his head, his voice muffled.

"She knows you’re the heir to Xiao Yang’s Antique Store, but she hasn’t come to find you. Do you know why?"

"Why?" 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

At a crucial moment, Nie Qing let out a wicked laugh, "As you wish, I won’t say."

"You!" Boss Xiao Yang, furious, "Nie Qing, you’re overstepping!"

"Want to know why?" Nie Qing provoked: "Go hunt Ghosts at the villa. Before dawn, whoever catches more wins. If you win, I’ll tell you everything you wish to know."

Boss Xiao Yang looked into the dark abyss, the corners of his mouth twitching, "Are you sure we are the ones hunting Ghosts, not the other way around?"

"No more chatter, I’m heading to the villa," Nie Qing, bored, got in the car.

Just before he started the engine, Boss Xiao Yang opened the car door and got in as well.

Nie Qing raised an eyebrow, "Tsk, coward, weren’t you unwilling to come?"

Boss Xiao Yang muttered, "If I win, you will tell me why."

"Tsk, haven’t you gone on enough blind dates? I thought you had forgotten her long ago. Tsk tsk tsk, seems like old feelings die hard. No wonder all your blind dates failed."

"Enough with the tsking, it’s annoying! Start the car already!"
