Guide To Reign My Tycoon Husbands

Chapter 503 503: Learn the consequences



Seeing his wife panic like this made Old Master Wen frown. He placed the spray bottle that he was using to water his plants and walked towards his wife. Sitting down next to her, he asked her, "What's the matter with you? Why are you panicking like this, darling?"

When he saw that his wife was still not at ease, he started rubbing her on the back and softly guided her, "Come on breath with me. Take a big breath and then release it. Come on."

As far as Father Wen knew, his wife was steady and calm. No matter what the situation was, his wife had never lost her mind in such a manner. So why was she acting in such a manner?

Old Madam Wen calmed down when her husband started rubbing her on the back. She closed her eyes and breathed in and out like her husband asked her to do. Slowly, her heartbeat calmed down and her cold fingertips warmed slightly. Only then did she open her eyes and turn to look at her husband.

"I am fine," she told Father Wen with a smile. Though the worry lines on her face didn't ease at all.

Father Wen was a sensible mer. If not, he wouldn't be the one who would be sitting in the official husband's position. He blinked his eyes and then stood up from the couch before walking around and placing his hands on Old Madam Wen's shoulders. He started massaging them.

Only when his wife's nerves eased down a little did he ask, "Is everything alright, wife? Did something happen at the company?"

He paused and added, "You don't have to tell me if it's confidential."

This only made Old Madam Wen trust him even more.

She closed her eyes and leaned her head on the backrest of the couch. With a sigh, she said to her, "It's the project. The one with Gloom."

When Father Wen heard her response, his fingers paused for a second before he sensibly asked, "What's wrong? The number of sacrifices is not enough?"

"It's not that the sacrifices are not enough," Old Madam Wen shook her head. "Instead, it's because the sacrifices are not being accepted by the gloom!"

When Old Madam Wei thought about how things were getting complicated out of nowhere, she felt a bit flustered. This project was something that she and a few more businesswomen had come up with.

It was incredibly important and they hoped for it to succeed.

If they could raise a gloom as their pet, then would they still need to worry about anything? They would become the top dogs in the country. Everyone would have to think twice before offending them. And if this project was a success, then they wouldn't have to worry about anything. Even if one of their glooms was killed, they could always raise another one.

However, before they could even taste the sweetness of their victory— the project that was at its last stage suddenly went downhill!

How could they not panic?

When Father Wen heard that the sacrifices sent to the Gloom were not accepted, he suddenly became flustered. Because the sacrifices sent this time were none other than Qi Yongrui and his assistant.

What happened? How come the Gloom suddenly stopped accepting the sacrifices? In the past, nothing like this happened but suddenly, the second he sent Qi Yongrui to become the sacrifice, such a thing happened. how could Father Wen not panic!?

More importantly, he did this without letting his wife know. If something went wrong, then she would be really upset with him.

Though the ins and outs of the matter could be explained and that would be enough to divert the trouble, Father Wen was still troubled.

He suppressed his nervousness and asked, "Then what are you going to do?"

"For now I am thinking about cutting the losses," Mother Wen rubbed her forehead and answered honestly. "The project suddenly went downhill; I am afraid that something happened in the middle; after all, it wouldn't have gone off track for no reason. I don't want to step away after pouring so much funds into it but there are no other options."

Mother Wen's eyes flashed with cruelty as she stated, "The villagers must have made a mess somewhere. There is no other explanation."

"But now that the vessel that was used to raise the gloom has suddenly suppressed the rising gloom aura, I am afraid that this is a failure."

This was the reason why she didn't want to leave the villagers in charge but Madam Qiao said that the village had no gloom aura and the people of that village were also willing to raise the Gloom.

Thus, she agreed with their proposals. But now that the project failed, Old Madam Wen couldn't help but blame Madam Qiao and the rest.

Who asked them to leave such an important matter in the hands of those fools?

When Old master Wen heard that his wife was cutting her tail off, he felt a bit regretful. They had poured so much money into this project and now that it had fallen, he knew that they would never get those funds back but at the same time he also agreed with his wife's approach.

The project had failed; there was no point in continuing.

"Then what now? The other madams are also willing to stop the project?" he asked with a calm voice.

"Humph, they are all idiots." Old Madam Wen rolled her eyes when she thought about the things that Madam Qiao told her. "She said to me that she was not willing to give up and would go to the village to see what went wrong. And this time she will feed the Gloom essence to the vessel with her own hands. Isn't this equivalent to putting her neck on the line? But that woman is stubborn and wants to do it."

She sighed and asked Father Wen for a glass of water. "I just hope that she doesn't get caught." Because if that woman got caught, she would definitely give her up!

When Father Wen heard her words, he immediately poured her a glass of water and then comforted her, "Don't think too much, wife. Even if that woman gets caught, she doesn't have any evidence to prove that we were the ones involved in the project. She can try but she might not succeed in dragging us down."

As far as he knew, his wife and the rest of the women met with one another while hiding their identities. Madam Qiao might have guessed the identity of his wife but that was it.

Old Madam Wen drank a few gulps of water and nodded.

She also hoped that things would not escalate.

What she didn't know was that the things were definitely going to escalate this time around!

"What!?"

"They caught your husband?"

"How did this happen?"

When Luo Huian returned and relayed what happened in the village to Luo Qingling and the rest, they were all shocked by the sudden turn of events.

How could they not be surprised?

They knew that the villagers were sacrificing people to raise the Gloom but now that the sacrifice was someone they knew, they suddenly panicked a little.

Luo Qingling and the rest were panicking while Luo Huian, whose husband was caught, was munching on an apple calmly. Seeing her like this, Luo Qingling suddenly recalled a saying. The empress was not in a hurry but the mammy was.

Bah, bah. She was not a mammy. She was a perfect woman.

Luo Qingling looked at her sister and asked, "Why didn't you rescue Yongrui and his assistant? Isn't it dangerous to leave them there?"

Luo Huian swallowed the apple in her mouth and then replied calmly, "It's not that I didn't want to save them but the thing is that I cannot save them at the moment. If I bring them out, then the villagers will certainly become alert, and the person behind the project will also become cautious. What we want is to catch the big fish and not the little fish."

"Do you think that these villagers would confess the truth? And even if they did confess, with the lack of evidence, we cannot do anything to the one in charge."

Luo Huian was indeed correct but when Luo Qingling thought about how Qi Yongrui would have to suffer in the small shack, she then shook her head and sighed. Forget it; since Luo Huian, being the wife, was not panicked, why should she be in panic?

She would also leave the matter in the hands of her sister!

Luo Huian knew what was going on in Luo Qingling's head but she deliberately pretended not to understand. She knew that Qi Yongrui was going to suffer but she wanted that mer to suffer.

Luo Huian didn't know what kind of complicated relationship he had with his sister and the rest of the family nor did she want to understand it.

But she wanted that stupid mer to learn his lesson.

Even though she didn't dare to bully him and yet he let others bully him? How could this be done?

Since he wanted to follow his sister so much, then she would teach him the consequences of following his sister's orders.
