~~Flashback~~
Four months ago, a burly man arrived at the Inscription Association, looking around. He seemed very suspicious to Jason. Making sure that Jason was all alone, the big guy approached Jason at the desk.
"Are you... Nie Li?" He asked, his face quite intimidating.
Jason nodded his head. "Yep. What do you want? If you're here to cause trouble then you should better think twice."
Jason could see the man's face twitching slightly after hearing Jason's warning as he said. "I just want to ask you something important."
"Oh! What is it?" Jason raised his eyebrow at him.
Looking around again, he leaned down and whispered. "Just what did you do to my daughter? "
"Your daughter? Look man, just who are you? And since when did I meet your daughter?" Jason was dumbfounded.
"Young man, Don't lie! She was here to buy some scrolls over a month ago. I don't know what happened but she is behaving very differently. She stopped going out and causing trouble for me. No flirting with others, messing around with young men to other sorts of weird stuff." The man spoke with an expression as if even he couldn't believe his own words. "Just what did you do? Now she stays at home and spends her time on cultivation. Sometimes she just looked at the empty space and giggled."
"Are you serious? And who is your daughter?" Jason took a deep breath to calm down his anger and asked. 'Your daughter has a mental problem and yet you come here saying that I did something...'
The man laughed awkwardly, rubbing the back of his head. "Hahaha, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Huyan Xiong and I'm the patriarch of the Huyan family."
"Huyan?... Ah!..." Jason found the surname familiar and remembered it, pointing at him. "So, you're Huyan Lanruo's father. Just seriously man, how did you educate her? Are you really her father? You've spoiled her rotten. You should have to be strict with her."
Staring at the patriarch of the Huyan family, he said. "You should thank me for doing your job. She messed with me so I just spanked her a little."
"Y-You... spanker her?" Huyan Xiong was bemused.
Jason nodded his head. "Why not? Someone has to teach her a lesson."
"Thank you!" Huyan Xiong jumped up and grabbed his hands, his expression very grateful.
Huh?
Jason was taken aback by his sudden outburst, looking at Huyan Xiong in shock. He could have understood if he had lashed out and even raised his hand at him for the sake of his daughter but he was... actually thanking him instead.
'Did he have a screw loss in his head?... Or the entire Huyan family are just made up of idiots? Well, looking at the top members, it seems to be the case.'
Huyan Xiong almost cried. Looking at the young man in front, he said. "Young man, you don't know how grateful I am as a father."
'Grateful? Are you for real? I spanked your daughter. It is akin to molestation and yet you are grateful.'
Looking at Jason's expression, he continued. "You don't how difficult it was for me to control her. I lost my wife quite early and so I spoiled my only child. But who would have thought, it would let her astray? Aside from messing around, she literally just causes me headaches..."
Sighing heavily, he said. "But now there is you. I'll leave my daughter to you. Please help me make her right."
"What do you mean 'make her right'? Do you have some mind problem? I literally spanked your daughter and that's what you have to say!" Jason was amused with the situation unfolding like that.
"Hahaha... well, you're young. Every young man has some weird tastes. I've other things to do, if you're free then come to drink with me sometime." Huyan Xiong laughed awkwardly and made a hasty retreat, almost running away.
"Hey, wait!... He's gone." Jason was in a daze, his face twitching. 'Why do I feel like he dumped his troubles on me? Fuck!'
Outside
"Aren't you taking advantage of the situation?" Just as Huyan Xiong came out, he was greeted by his best friend, Ye Zong.
"Hahaha... where do you see me taking advantage of the situation, my friend? It's just called using tactics." Huyan Xiong laughed. "Well, when you first told me about him. I just think of him as an arrogant brat who gained a heaven's fortune but was still wet behind his ears. But after observing him, I think he is not that simple. He acted cold and strict yet cared about others. He sees others' true nature and is honest upfront, unlike other youngsters nowadays who are all showoff and nothing more. Despite being rude, he still talks naturally with neither humility nor impolite. I can feel that it is his nature and not an act... And that arrogance of his is not like ours. It had seeped into his bones, his basic nature. The aura around him can only belong to a person at a high position, above the masses just like an emperor. The more I see him the more I really want him as a son-in-law. There are other exceptional youngsters too like your son Ye Han and Chen Zhenlong's son but compared to him, they are lacking too much. He is perfect for my daughter and can put a leash on her."
"Are you really talking about your daughter like that?" Ye Zong chuckled, aware of his friend's daughter's wild nature and all the troubles she caused.
Looking at Jason still cursing at Huyan Xiong, he asked. "Do you really see him so highly?"
"Of course. Not even 13 and already at the Legend rank. In the entirety of the Glory City's history, something like this never happened." Huyan Xiong laughed. "And I know you well enough, my friend. You must have also the same idea as me or else you'll have never left your precious daughter in his care with how strict he is with her."
Ye Zong stared at Jason and smiled. "Yeah, you're right. But then aren't you making things difficult for your friend?"
Huyan Xiong chuckled. "Hmph! You can't be like that. With his unique nature and natural charisma, he is bound to attract attention. A hero's nature, you can't do anything about it."
Ye Zong sighed, completely defeated by his friend's argument.
"Oh yes, Ye Zong. Can you ask young master Nie Li to give me some advice too?" Huyan Xiong changed the topic and asked.
"I can only try." Ye Zong released a sigh and smiled.
~~Flashback Ends~~
"Boss, where are you lost?"
Jason was thinking about something when Huyan Lanruo sprung into his view, waving at him with a smile.
After Huyan Xiong's visit, she started paying visits very often, almost pissing him off. And it didn't even matter what he said, she just didn't seem to care.
Finally resigned at his fate to unable to defeat the young woman in front of him, he could only appoint her as an assistant at the Inscription Association with him. With how Xue Yin rarely came and other stuff, he needed a helping hand anyway. And with her here, he could both keep an eye on her and promote the business.
After all, many of the young men in the Glory City were her die-hard fans, chasing her skirt, they were bound to come to the association for her and in the process had to give orders.
