Su Youxia's eyes turned somber, her right hand gripping the cane slightly tighter.
She also knew that an arranged marriage was the best choice, the only way to let her sister return to the Dark World.
But she knew her sister too well.
If that's the case, it would be better not to return.
Indeed, this temptation was great, and even Old Master Si was tempted.
After all, it's a Catastrophe Level talent, who wouldn't want that?
But now, behind him is that great existence, and everything has changed.
At this mont, he felt the ntal thought coming from his mind and was slightly moved: "I understand, please give
one more night to consider, and I will give you an answer."
"Very good."
The Think Tank chuckled and hung up the phone.
Su Youxia snorted coldly, turned, and got into the car.
The convoy roared away.
Old Master Si also sat back in the driver's seat, respectfully said: "Boss, I'm back."
Gu Jianlin's forr status as the Divine Servant wasn't anything too noble, but now, after controlling the Si Family, he seed to have risen to beco so kind of underworld figure, like a godfather.
He recalled so scenes from gangster movies and unintentionally raised his right hand, stroking the girl's long hair in his arms like petting a cat, calmly saying: "What was the deal with the marriage contract just ntioned?"
Old Master Si coughed lightly and quickly said: "It's like this, to avoid suspicion, the Si Family has to solidify its stance, insisting on accusing the Moon Princess of betrayal and demanding certain benefits. Otherwise, if we concede so directly, it would be too obvious, and our partner, the Jiang Family, would beco suspicious."
"The Think Tank's idea is for us to drop the accusation and let the Moon Princess marry into the Si Family."
He paused: "This way, the Si Family would gain a super genius, at the cost of potentially becoming enemies with the Jiang Family. But the Think Tank promised to provide us with so protection."
Gu Jianlin raised an eyebrow and asked calmly: "You didn't agree?"
Old Master Si quickly forced a smile, more painful than crying: "You're the one they want, how could I decide? I've been desperately trying to contact you lately, but you're so busy you haven't paid any attention to this ant."
Gu Jianlin continued to ask: "What about the marriage partner?"
Old Master Si coughed lightly and explained: "If there's no accident, it would be the person you replaced. If we agree to this marriage now, it would be you instead. We will erase the real Si Xingye's mories, and from today, he won't deserve this na or identity."
Gu Jianlin pondered for a mont, now that he controlled the entire Si Family, he should indeed bring that girl over.
This way, all the family's resources would be tilted towards her.
And the Liu family could still serve as her ally.
Add to that the Zong Family with Su Youxia, and it would be equivalent to combining three of the Six Major Families.
After all, if the marriage partner is himself, it saves others from making any moves on her.
"Go back and tell the Think Tank, I agree to this marriage."
He thought for a mont: "On one condition, bring the Moon Princess to see
as soon as possible."
Old Master Si thought it would be as expected and quickly said: "As you wish, boss."
Under the pitch-black night sky, the Rolls-Royce roared away, followed by a mighty convoy.

In a tranquil courtyard in Chiyoda District, Tokyo, cherry blossoms scattered by the wind were almost transparent in the sunlight, swirling like a pink tide, falling into the clear pool water, rippling with the waves.
Gu Jianlin placed the unconscious girl on the bed, carefully covering her with a blanket.
The actions were cautious, fearing to wake her up.
After a whole night's journey, they arrived in Tokyo from Yokohama, transforming from tragic fugitives to the rulers of a major family, temporarily escaping the hunt with the Si Family's influence.
Of course, this didn't an the crisis was over, only that it was temporarily less dire.
After all, the Si Family wasn't particularly strong.
And their opponent was The Order of the Hidden.
"Might as well stay asleep, useless thing."
He sighed.
Skylark still showed no signs of waking up. Having a Ninth Rank Candle Yin God lying beside him that couldn't be used gave him no sense of security. If another Holy Land Level assassin ca, he might just lose his mind.
The problem now was, the two were like grasshoppers tied to the sa rope; if one fell, the other would be dragged down too.
Gu Jianlin had no choice but to keep her by his side, and having lived for seventeen years, he had no experience taking care of others, except for serving tea and kneading the waist for the old monster in his dreams.
Now, just as he learned sothing, he had to put it to use.
He prepared all of the girl's daily necessities, placing them in this room.
After confirming there was nothing missing, he left the room, closing the door.
"Phew, truly exhausting."
He sat on the tatami in the courtyard, touching the golden mask on his face.
This was a Mythical Weapon, nad the Ghost Mask.
It possessed a mind-capturing effect, capable of enchanting the human spirit, provided there was a Rank suppression.
Or heavily injuring the opponent.
It wasn't particularly useful, though.
Inevitably, if Old Master Si were to ti travel to ancient tis, he would undoubtedly be a Chief Eunuch class, handling everything excellently, without causing the slightest discomfort. Within a five-hundred-ter radius, there were no idle outsiders, but beyond this distance, there were strict security guards, not allowing even a fly to get through.
