The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

Chapter 1258 - 1257: A Man's Hardships

Tang Rao wanted to do something, and just clapped his hands to finalize it, leaving the women dumbfounded."Tang Rao, if I end up losing money for you, you wouldn't hold it against me, would you?"

When Bai Xiaotong came out, she was still reluctant to leave the place.

If Tang Rao thought that Bai Xiaotong wasn't up to it and wouldn't let her take the reins, wouldn't she be getting excited for nothing?

She asked Tang Rao indirectly, but he understood what she meant.

Ah, not just one Bai Xiaotong; no matter what his women wanted to do, even if it broke Tang Rao's head, he would prepare it for them.

"Auntie, even if you lose two, I still believe in you. What's a gentle village, as long as it makes my aunt smile, right?"

Those skillful hands of Auntie's, Tang Rao only realized were truly magical, able to transform an extremely unattractive woman into a super sexy and beautiful one in no time.

Even if he doesn't touch, when inspecting work, he could feast his eyes.

"Tang Rao, if I know a Supreme Power comes to Gentle Village for a visit, every time I know, I'll smash it; you'd better be prepared beforehand."

Just as the whole world was backing Tang Rao in his endeavor, a single comment from the Holy Mother scared him out of his wits.

"I, Tang Rao, am not that kind of person. How could someone as reputable as a Supreme Power come to a lowbrow place like Gentle Village and lower their status?"

With Tang Rao saying it like this, how could a Supreme Power still be willing to go?

However, the women in Gentle Village were truly beautiful, and not going to experience it would be a regret for a lifetime.

"That's better."

The Holy Mother's expression softened considerably.

Tang Rao finally understood why the Supreme Power didn't like the Holy Mother.

A woman who insists on controlling a man in everything; how could she win a man's heart?

"Tang Rao, do you now understand the difficulty I face?"

The Supreme Power walked behind with Tang Rao, complaining to him.

"I understand, I get it all."

The Supreme Power was a normal man; the Holy Mother and he had no longer any relationship, yet she restricted so many of his freedoms. You could imagine how frustrated the Supreme Power was.

"If she were a gentle woman, I'd accept it even if she were a bit ugly. But she's not very attractive, her temper is not good, and she's fierce to me. Whoever marries such a woman, their household would collapse, and at least for the time being, I don't want to meet such an early end."

The thoughts of the Supreme Power aligned with most men's. Though Tang Rao might not feel it deeply, he could understand a bit of such feelings.

"Why don't you make things clear with the Holy Mother? You two are always seen together; never mind others, even people from the Kao Shan Sect think you and the Holy Mother have a thing going on."

Tang Rao wasn't speaking nonsense. After all, the Holy Mother always had a look of determination as if she wouldn't give up until she chased down the Supreme Power, deterring everyone.

"What could I say? I can't just ask her to leave, telling her we're incompatible. Wouldn't you agree that there must be timing, convenience, and harmony? If I say it now and the Holy Mother decides to die or live for it, what then?"

No matter how much he disliked her, the Holy Mother was still a human life. If she can't figure it out and ends it, it wouldn't matter; they'd just place the blame on the Supreme Power, making it a huge mess.

"That's true, so why not have a good chat with her about your future, telling her what you like and dislike? If you find common ground, couldn't you come together?"

Tang Rao had the guts to think of it, while the Supreme Power couldn't even imagine what it would be like to be with the Holy Mother.

"Stop, stop, I can't afford this."

"What are you guys talking about?"

The Holy Mother turned around, and even though they were using silent communication, how could she sense the Supreme Power and Tang still conversing?

"We were talking about nothing; we didn't even say two sentences, right Supreme Power?"

Tang Rao shifted the blame onto the Supreme Power. For such a giant entity, couldn't it bear the brunt, haha?

"Yes, yes, there's really nothing for us to discuss."

The two men were utterly scared by a woman.

Tang Rao feared the Holy Mother's strength, while the Supreme Power was afraid of her relentless pursuit.

"It's best if you weren't saying anything, or else you'll regret it."

The Holy Mother gave Tang Rao and the Supreme Power a knowing look, scaring them into silence.

Tang Rao returned to the Kao Shan Sect, and the first person who came was Wen Jun.

Since Wen Lei was with Tang Rao the whole day, Wen Jun claimed to pick Wen Lei up to bring him home. Such a flimsy excuse, yet Tang Rao actually believed it.

"Tang Rao, my young friend, congratulations! With Gentle Village about to open, shouldn't you invite us to a meal and drink or something?"

The idea Wen Jun had, Tang Rao realized immediately, didn't he?

"As I told Wen Lei, if he wants to visit Gentle Village, he's more than welcome. I can even give discounts, but if you want to eat and drink for free, making it a regular thing, I absolutely won't agree."

Tang Rao's lack of empathy made Wen Jun think he was quite ruthless.

However, only someone like Tang Rao would be more suited for business.

He knew the difference between friends and business; only by not mixing the two, could relationships between friends last longer.

"Alright, just for what you said, we'll support your Gentle Village from now on."

Wen Jun's network was complex and vast. Just promoting a bit for Tang Rao, and there wouldn't be any worry about lack of patrons at Tang Rao's Gentle Village.

"That's unnecessary, as long as your friends spend more and cause no trouble, that would be the biggest help to me."

Tang Rao said a considerate word to Wen Jun. It was truly what he thought, so he didn't care about any pretensions or pride in it.

"Of course, no doubt about it. If any of my friends cause trouble, regardless of anything, the first thing I'd do is cut ties with them, so rest assured."

With Wen Jun's assurance, Tang Rao had one less worry.

"By the way, Tang Rao, my young friend, I heard you can now refine seventh-grade Elixir Pills; is that true?"

Wen Jun casually inquired about Tang Rao's recent situation.

He wasn't asking to beg for seventh-grade Elixir Pills; his concerns came from genuine care for Tang Rao.

"Even you heard, and they say the Divine Realm is vast. I haven't seen how vast it is."

Even a small matter could be blown out of proportion; it seemed there were indeed quite a lot stirring things up.

"Tang Rao, my young friend, you might not know, but it's normal for others not to know. If I didn't know, it'd show a lack of care. If I don't care about you, isn't that quite unkind?"

Wen Jun's reasoning seemed quite valid.

"Seeing you're so concerned about me, I happen to have a seventh-grade Elixir Pill ready. Give me two sets of materials, and I'll gift it to you, how does that sound?"
