Daddy - Part 1

In his half-conscious state, Guo Shan kept looking at the figure who had thrown him away like garbage, with a big puzzle in his mind.

"How...? How...? How could this unknown man defeat me? How could someone from the outer region break my scale? Just how?" Guo Shan kept muttering these words.

Heero's words did not reach his ears at all. What bothered him was how Heero could beat him. As for his daughter, he could take her back after getting rid of Heero.

"Xing District..." As Guo Shan wondered about Heero's true identity, a name flashed in his mind. Xing District was written at the entrance, "That sounds familiar..."

He felt he had heard the name somewhere before and it made a deep impression on him. Then another came to mind as he tried to remember where he had heard of Xing District. The name that came to mind was Sun Zhou Yi.

"Yes, I remember, the new guy lives in Xing District!" It was his friend who told him about Xing District. At that time, they were on a mission and his friend told him about the mysterious district called Xing District.

The story of the Thunder Dragon's descent, the story of Huo Liang Xun's defeat, and even the story of Sun Zhou Yi's mysterious master. These stories were about a district, but it never occurred to him that Xing District was in the outer region.

He thought the district should at least be in the inner region. As he was aware that he had just entered the legendary district, he was also aware of something. He was being used by the Feng family.

Yes, it all started with the Feng Family. Guo Shan came here under the Feng Family's offer to get his wife back. The Shen Family also agreed because it was a chance to build a bridge between them and power from the core region.

Although the task was strange, Guo Shan accepted it for the tempting reward. Confused and angry, Guo Shan calmed down after connecting point after point.

"Why didn't I think of that? They must want something from Han Ying, but what is it? It seems I have to do a little research and search for this district!" After collecting his thoughts, Guo Shan stood up.

"Heh, you Feng family wanted to use me? Okay, I am willing to be used, but I will also use you for my revenge! Just wait, I will come back with your doom!" A deep hatred could be seen in Guo Shan's eyes as he looked back at the district.

Then he walked over to a car he had parked outside the district. As he walked to the car, he made a phone call, "Get all the information about Xing District. I want everything on my desk when I get back!"

Meanwhile, Heero walked back to the shop with worrying thoughts. They were about the power of the Hero League.

"They're just too weak... too weak..." Heero murmured in a low voice. He had heard that Guo Shan was a gold-class hero - rank 17. If Rank 17 was so weak, what about the lower ranks?

He could not imagine what would happen to the city if a horde of ghosts attacked. Although he did not like the Hero League, they were the ones responsible for protecting the city. If the Hero League fell, his retirement would be ruined.

"It seems that the Hero League can't be trusted to take care of the Shadow Fang..." Heero sighed, "Hah... In the end, I have to do something myself! Luckily, I founded the Academy, I can also train a bunch of heroes..."

Yes, it was fortunate, as it seemed that the number of ghosts was not that high. If the Ghosts had an overwhelming number of them, they would undoubtedly have been able to take over the city long ago.

"I still have some time, but it seems I have to hurry up and set up my academy..." On his way back, Heero called Kang Seo-Yeon to inquire about the progress of the academy.

Guo Shan's visit caused a big change in Shen Miao. The little girl simply did not expect to see the bad side of her father. Although not as cheerful as Lan Lan, Shen Miao has become much calmer since her father's visit.

To make matters worse, Han Ying told the little girl why her father had left her. Yes, apparently Guo Shan only told her that the separation between her father and mother was only temporary. Her father promised to bring her mother back later.

To make matters worse, Han Ying told Shen Miao that everything was a lie. She told the truth about her separation from Guo Shan. Everything she said was bad about her father, whom she had always admired.

The little girl's shock was doubled. Her father was the number one idol in her heart, which caused a small quarrel between daughter and mother.

As night fell, Shen Miao had still not come down from her room. While Heero took care of the order, he approached Han Ying and said, "Should we close the shop early?"

"Anyway, sister, should you tell Miao Miao about the true nature of that bastard now?" Hong Yu did not know what was on her sister's mind. She could tell her later when the little girl had calmed down.

"The earlier she knew, the better she could accept her father who is not as good as her imagination!" Han Ying told her reasons firmly.

"Yes... Yes... The sooner she knew better..." Heero tried to meditate with the two sisters and opened a new topic, "We better find a way to comfort Miao Miao. Is there anything she particularly loves?"

"Heh, now... now... now... you are siding with your new wife. I know I can't win, one against two..." Hong Yu countered with a sly smile as a hint of blush appeared on Hong Yu's cheeks.

Hong Yu's words only reminded her of the bold act of kissing Heero in front of Guo Shan. Heero slapped Hong Yu's head lightly and said, "What are you talking about? Get back to work! Back to work!"

Even Heero was embarrassed. Although he acted naturally as Han Ying's husband, he did not know how to face Han Ying now. He understood the reason behind Han Ying's action of kissing him, it was to anger Guo Shan who had gone overboard.

Heero immediately went back to his station, dissolving the awkward atmosphere between him and Han Ying. Hong Yu just snickered at her husband before returning to her station.

Just then, his disciples returned from their training. Hirata, Zhou Yi, Dong-Wo, Xu Lingxun, and Butcher Wang immediately went to the counter.

"Master, I heard that you beat up a guy this morning. Do you want me to teach him a lesson so that he will not dare to cause trouble here?" Hirata asked Heero with his usually serious demeanor.

He only needed Heero to nod his head and then he would do everything to make it happen. But there was no way that Heero would agree to that.

Heero shook his head and waved his hand in the direction of his students, "This is not something you can interfere with. This is my family business! Just go and take your medicine bath, you are disturbing my customers!"

Musashi Hirata nodded his head in agreement and then went to the roof with the others. As he climbed up, he made an unexpected remark about Heero: "Master is still too soft..."

"What? But I think Master is right, this is his family's business, we can't interfere!" Sun Zhou Yi commented.

"I did not say we have to interfere in Master's family affairs, but people like Guo Shan or the people from the inner or core regions. They won't give up unless we instill fear in them. I think this guy will come back with more plans later!

"We must show what we can do and make them fear us. If not, they will just keep coming back and bothering Master from time to time! We have to be more arrogant to beat these arrogant bastards! But Master is just too soft for that!" Hirata poured everything into his head.

This time, no one contradicted him because his words contained the truth.

Heero thought he had been saved from the awkward situation between him and Han Ying when the night came. When the shop closed and right after the shop was tidied up, Hong Yu made a shocking statement.

"Fine, I will sleep with Miao Miao tonight! You two can share the bed!"

"What!?" "What!?"

Heero and Han Ying shouted in shock at the same time.
