The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

"Eat, eat, eat, what are you eating? When did I eat your donuts? Don't use those things to manipulate me, ruining the relationship between my daughter and me."

The old man winked at Tang Rao while he wasn't looking, and his eyes were about to go blind with all the winking, but Tang Rao didn't seem to understand him at all.

Originally, he thought that once Tang Rao got the hint, he'd put on an act and cooperate. Unexpectedly, Tang Rao directly took out a big box of donuts and placed it in front of the old man.

Faced with the huge temptation, the old man began to waver.

"Hey, what you ate that day was this stuff, right? So, do you want more? If you do, just tell me, maybe if I'm in a good mood, I'll share some with you."

At least for now, Tang Rao isn't in a good mood. Trying to swindle some food from him is harder than ascending to Tiandu.

"What's your problem, kid? Clearly, you don't want the relationship between my daughter and me to get better, do you?"

What does this have to do with Tang Rao? It's not like he was the one instigating conflict, nor did he force the old man to lie and say he truly didn't sell her out over a donut.

To put it simply, these were all troubles the old man brought upon himself, okay?

"What does it have to do with me? Whether you two get along or not doesn't benefit me at all. Rather than thinking about that, why not think about how to move me to give you all the donuts."

Tang Rao's words, though blunt, went straight to the old man's heart.

"How much for each donut? I'll buy them all."

Talking about money? That would be too impersonal. Everyone knows Tang Rao is the least short of money. Instead of asking him how much, it's better to ask Tang Rao what he needs, and he's willing to trade for it.

"Sorry, I've never lacked money in my life. When I scoop out Purple Crystals, it's one handful after another. If you want, I can share some, but using money to exchange for donuts? Don't even think about it."

Tang Rao put the donuts into the Space Ring. The delicious treats that were nearly in the old man's grasp suddenly ended up in someone else's pocket, typical of seeing but not getting, heart-wrenching.

"No way, it's impossible, you must give me all those things. If you don't sell them, then I'll have to resort to stealing."

The old man has never feared anyone in his life. He originally didn't want to use force, provided Tang Rao cooperates.

"Steal? How do you plan on stealing? Don't think being in the late stage of a deity is amazing; you're just slightly more profound than me, but other than that, I'm not much worse off than you."

Tang Rao is strong, his tone tough. No one should expect to take advantage of him in any way.

"Ling Er, is this the man you've been keeping an eye on, unwilling to let go? The more I look at him, the more displeased I get, really want to strangle this boy."

Is it necessary to make such a fuss over a donut?

"Not just you, even I feel like strangling him at times!"

Rao Linger thought she was the only one who had these thoughts. Turns out, father and daughter think alike.

"Why don't you discuss it with each other? Killing me is pointless. Better to let me go; I promise not to appear before you again."

"Dream on!"

"Dream on!"

Father and daughter spoke in unison again.

"Acting like this is really not conducive to our unity. How about this, I give you all the donuts on me, and you let me go?"

After all, donuts aren't something Tang Rao likes to eat. Even if he did, even if he runs out, he could have Yan Wei get him some more.

"All the donuts to me?"

Just now he was in a murderous mood, but hearing the word 'donuts', his eyes lit up, and it seemed he forgot all those 'strangle Tang Rao' words from a moment ago.

"Of course, all yours. I dislike eating these things the most, they're of no use to me, so I'll just give them all to you."

Such an alluring offer, if it were anyone else, they'd refuse without thinking, but the old man isn't like everyone else. When he tasted the first donut, he fell in love with the flavor, and now he's willing to do anything short of risking his life to get them.

"I'll send you off, no problem, to the North Island, right? Let's go right now!"

Just one box of donuts, and the old man was immediately bribed into submission.

"Dad, people shouldn't be so principled-less as you. What donuts? Keep eating sweets, and if you die from them, I certainly won't care!"

Rao Linger isn't upset about the old man eating donuts; she's upset because, even though he's her biological father, he unconditionally follows Tang Rao's whims.

"I don't need you to care. Completing your lifelong affair is far more meaningful than dealing with my death."

The old man has waited for years for Rao Linger to get married, but it's become a distant dream.

"Tang Rao, give me the donuts, and I promise to send you away."

The old man is exasperated at Rao Linger; he'd rather vent his frustration by sending Tang Rao off in anger!

"Sure, to the Transmission Array!"

Tang Rao took out all the donuts and handed them to the old man, waiting for him to fulfill his promise.

"Tang Rao, are you really going?"

This was Rao Linger's final question for Tang Rao; his determination to leave was strong enough, even her father was bribed, what else could she hope to use to keep him?

"Of course, I'd be a fool not to go. If I don't leave now, should I stay in your family as a live-in son-in-law?"

Well, being a live-in son-in-law is something Rao Linger would love.

"Go on, hoping to take my donuts for free?"

Tang Rao didn't want to waste any more time. He never thought Central Island would become a burden deep in his heart.

Used to desire coming here, now he wished to leave without mining any longer.

For dignity's sake, despite wanting to earn more before returning, Tang Rao would never submit to Rao Linger's whims.

"Dad, is this what you want? Fine, you leave, you all leave!"

No one considered her feelings, no one cared about her; they all just wanted their own gain, living like this was not something she wanted.

"Family Head, something's wrong, the old man is unconscious, you should come see him soon!"

Right when everyone was confronting each other, bad news came from a subordinate.

"Unconscious?"

The reaction from the others wasn't as big as Tang Rao's.

How could it not be? This concerned whether Tang Rao could smoothly leave the Central Island. Last time, Rao Linger said she'd send Tang Rao back, and when they went to the Lin Family, the promised words changed surpassingly. Now the old man agreed to take Tang Rao to the Transmission Array, yet complications arose again, seemingly having no intention of letting Tang Rao leave Central Island?
