Signing In At The Civil Affairs Bureau, I Was Rewarded With A Gorgeous Wife Chapter 295 Sowing Discord!
anwhile, in a private club in Forty-nine City.
Hu Shengpeng had his legs propped up on the table, a beauty massaging each leg intimately.
"Ba Tian, you were indeed a bit impulsive at lunch today. What would you have done if Ouyang Jie had lost his temper and beat you up?"
Hu Shengpeng relaxed into the sofa; sitting across from him, Wu Batian looked like he wanted no one near him, as if he was about to paste a note on his face that read: Get lost!
"As long as this Song Yun remains in Forty-nine City for a day, I'll have my eye on him for a day!"
Wu Batian huffed, shoving the beauty next to him away as he shouted, "I didn't eat lunch! You call this a massage? You're pressing air!"
The rejected beauty's face was filled with grievance. They weren't actually trained in this; the massage was rely a ans to close the distance between them, and yet this young master took it seriously!
"Ha-ha, don't be so hot-tempered! With a beauty by your side, why be harsh on others!"
Hu Shengpeng beckoned to the beauty and then turned his head to Nangong Han, who had been silent, and said indifferently, "Ah Han, what are you thinking about?"
Nangong Han suddenly ca to his senses, and said bewilderedly, "I... wasn't thinking anything..."
"As a man, you can't be a fence-sitter; it's crucial to firmly take a side, don't you agree?"
Hu Shengpeng's words were a wake-up call for Nangong Han. As a noble son facing trouble, one naturally couldn't roll up their sleeves and enter the fray personally—that's where the role of the underlings ca into play!
Nangong Han, smart and from a strong family background, would undoubtedly be a great pawn if he continued to side with him!
Nangong Han had just been lectured by Old Master Ouyang Shu at noon, and now Hu Shengpeng was making pointed remarks in a strange tone, stirring annoyance within him.
"Ah Han, to not mince words, the Bai Family's sun is setting and won't shine for much longer! When the ti cos, our Hu Family will stand atop the ruins of the Bai Family and beco the number one family! If the Nangong Family doesn't choose sides wisely in advance, I'll have a hard ti helping you later!"
Upon hearing this, Nangong Han silently nodded his head.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
A beauty opened it to reveal a carefree-looking young man standing outside.
"Bai Jing!"
Hu Shengpeng stood up and warmly walked over to him.
Bai Jing pushed Hu Shengpeng away in disgust, his eyes roving over the beauties in the room.
"Brother, whichever one you fancy, just say the word, and I guarantee you'll be treated like a god tonight!" Hu Shengpeng said with a smile.
Bai Jing snorted dismissively and said, "They're all just gaudy and vulgar!"

"If the young master doesn't fancy them, then should we let them go?"
Hu Shengpeng waved his hand at the group of beauties and shouted fiercely, "Get lost! Don't trouble our Young Master Bai's eyes!"
"No, no, no, though they may be gaudy and vulgar, each beauty has her bright spots; it's just a bit tricky deciding which to choose!"
Bai Jing pretended to be in a dilemma.
Hu Shengpeng gave the beauty next to him a shove and said with a laugh, "Choosing is sothing children do. We want everything!"
"Ha ha ha ha ha, Hu Bro really gets !"
Bai Jing was in high spirits, flanked by won on both sides.
"Hu Bro, did you call over for sothing today?"
"Can't brothers catch up for the sake of old tis?"
Hu Shengpeng feigned anger and said, "Is it a must to have that kind of motive when a brother asks you out to have fun?"
"No, no... Recently the old man's health has not been good at ho, and all those people who used to hang out with can no longer be called out. Damn it, I have truly seen through people's hearts now, just four words: 'The world is cold and indifferent!'"
"Clap clap clap!"
Hu Shengpeng applauded and complinted him, "To have such insight at such a young age, as your brother, I'm impressed!"
"It's not as amazing as Brother Hu says..."
Bai Jing scratched the back of his head and smirked sheepishly.
"But as your brother, there are so things I'm not sure whether or not I should say... Sigh... you know I'm the most loyal, I don't want my brother to be at a loss!"
Hu Shengpeng's face was filled with worry, and anyone who t him for the first ti would most likely be deceived by his acting. Nangong Han watched from the side and cursed inwardly, "Old fox!"
"But go ahead and speak, Brother!"
"You see, about the health of your family's old man... you're aware, right? Let explain the pros and cons to you. If you think what your brother says makes sense, keep it in your heart. If you think I'm wrong, just take it as a joke today!"
"The pillar of your Bai family is your grandfather, and following him in line are your eldest and second uncles and your father. But neither your eldest nor second uncle have any sons, which ans in your generation, you're the only male!"
"Should a new family head be chosen and it's yet to be decided, it'll definitely be you, brother!"
Upon hearing this, Bai Jing's smile blossod. He humbly clasped his hands and said, "But I also have my eldest, second, and third sisters! When the ti cos, if they marry a man into the family, wouldn't it be the sa?"
"Not the sa! Very different!"
Hu Shengpeng hurriedly spoke up, "You should know that in selecting the head of our major families, it's generally a male. Anyway, I've never heard of any woman in the Forty-nine City leading a clan. Moreover, even if a son-in-law is brought in and the children carry the surna of your Bai family, would the Bai family elders agree?"
"This... you do make so sense..."
"Right? Now cos the most critical point, I hope my brother pays good attention!"
"Did you receive the news of your aunt coming back?"
"Yes, I did. But these past few days I've been out evaluating a few projects, I haven't been ho. I heard that my aunt's return enraged my eldest uncle so much that he gave her child fifty lashes!"
As Bai Jing brought this up, he was sowhat apprehensive; damn it, fifty lashes personally administered by Old Wei! And that kid actually endured it!
"Hehe, that child of your aunt is called Song Yun, the current richest man in Magic Capital!"
"What???"
Bai Jing froze upon hearing this, thinking how wealthy his cousin must be! The richest man in Magic Capital!
When he returned ho, he definitely had to get closer to his cousin; in case he ever ran out of money, he could hit him up for so!
"Why do you think your aunt, after laying low for decades, would suddenly return now?"
Hu Shengpeng dug a hole for Bai Jing; he was about to get to the most crucial mont!
Bai Jing felt dizzy from being led around; the truth was, he was a hedonist who loved won and never thought deeply about anything. As long as the family provided him with his monthly spending money, it was all fine!
"Why indeed?"
"Because your grandfather is about to die! Your aunt is here to divide up the inheritance!"
Hu Shengpeng raised his voice sharply, which made Bai Jing shudder in fear.
"That's hardly possible... As you said, my cousin is the richest man in Magic Capital, how could he do sothing like that..."
"Ah, you're too naive, my brother!"
Hu Shengpeng let out a sigh and said slowly, "To put it bluntly, do you really think your eldest and second uncles care about you that much?"
