The Reborn Aristocrat’s Daughter

"Grandpa Deng, don’t be in a hurry to enjoy your twilight years," said Situ Xin, stopping Old Deng who was about to leave. "Even though you have already handed over The Dark Division to me, I think you would still want to know about its future development, wouldn’t you? I must say, after I take over, there will be some actions. Of course, they definitely won’t contravene the founding principles of loyalty you established for The Dark Division." She felt that she should truly reassure Old Deng so he could confidently entrust The Dark Division to her care.

"Alright, since the young lady wants me to watch, I might as well stay and see," Old Deng, who had already stood up, sat back down.

Xiang Yang saw that Old Deng was done with the handover and it was his turn. He had organized all the important information about The Dark Division overnight and brought it all today. "Leader, here is the important data of The Dark Division over the past few years. I have brought everything. If there is anything unclear to you, you can ask me, and I will definitely try to explain it to you," Xiang Yang paused, looked at Situ Xin, and continued, "Leader, Xiang Yang will absolutely obey the Leader’s commands in the future."

After witnessing Situ Xin’s martial arts skills and medical expertise yesterday, Xiang Yang was utterly convinced of her capabilities.

Situ Xin felt the trust and obedience emanating from Xiang Yang and nodded in satisfaction. She took the documents he handed over and said, "Absolute obedience is not necessary, as long as you don’t betray us. Also, after we finish here, stay back—I’ll give you another acupuncture session," she said casually, passing the documents to Situ Muli.

"Thank you, Leader," Xiang Yang said gratefully.

Feeling the handover ceremony was about to end, Situ Xin lifted her head to glance at Old Deng and Xiang Yang, straightened her facial expression, and said with a serious face, "As the new Leader of The Dark Division, I intend to implement some reforms in our system," she spoke slowly, always watching everyone’s expressions, especially the senior members of The Dark Division like Xiang Yang, and noted their faces did not show any dissatisfaction, but rather an attentive readiness for her to continue.

"The reform I want to propose is that, in the future, any member of The Dark Division who wishes to leave can do so after submitting an application," no sooner had Situ Xin finished speaking than Old Deng interjected, "Xiao Xin, that simply won’t do. Members of The Dark Division inevitably know certain state secrets. They are also intimately familiar with the internal workings of The Dark Division. If those with ulterior motives were to find them and learn this information through them, it would be very unfavorable, even catastrophic, for our country and The Dark Division."

Old Master Loo also agreed, saying, "Baby, you cannot make such a decision lightly."
