"I didn't know that Young Master Ruan would be so handso." A man and a woman pair flattered Wei Jun to the point he got sick of it. Or at least a normal person would have gotten sick of it but the sa couldn't be said for the current Wei Jun.
[It's sickening how people change]
'It's nothing new. When faced with an obvious choice, humans always change.' Wei Jun replied while he smiled and replied with his own flattery of the woman's beauty or the man's nonexistent handsoness.
The entire banquet venue had been changed to the garden. Lin Ruan considered canceling the banquet but Wei Jun was adamant that doing so wouldn't be good for them. The reason was simple. He wanted people to know that the baseless rumors of the old man Ruan being poisoned were false and not only that, his current visage spelled that he had entered the beginner stage of Qi Master.
'The stocks would double by tomorrow. All those planning to take the position of this family should either change sides or back off.' He analyzed as the banquet progressed.
[But it wouldn't change, would it?]
'Of course, those who want the position won't change. Only their target would change.' Wei Jun replied as he engaged himself in another aningless conversation with another man.
[You]
'Of course. I am the only weak link in this family. The target is obvious.' Wei Jun replied.
[I pity them]
The system murmured in a low voice but Wei Jun heard it loud and clear since the system was in his head. However, he didn't say anything about it. It was true after all. Had they gone after the Ruan family, Wei Jun would have only helped where necessary but if they co after him, they would be his enemy. The current owner of Wei Jun's body didn't take kindly to enemies.
'We begin tomorrow.' Wei Jun said as he now completely focused on the banquet. After the banquet, there was supposed to be a dinner with his fiancée's family but now that the mansion was on the ground, he didn't know what would happen about it. Also, he was a bit tired to attend that dinner as well.
Although he took a healing pill to heal himself, he was still not in the mood to engage himself in another aningless conversation.
Finally, after what felt like hours, three to be exact, the guests started leaving one by one. The garden was soon empty with only the Ruan family servants and the mbers of the Ruan family left. There was no sign of Wei Jun's current father since he was still taking care of the business problems.
"Join , all of you." Sun Ruan said when only they were left. Wei Jun moved and took a seat at the table. Under the clear night sky, twinkling with stars, the family sat on a round table.
"It was a good decision not to cancel the banquet. Now they all know where the Ruan family stands." Sun Ruan began with these words.
"Exactly father. I couldn't help but seethe with anger when that b***, Ran Tong praised so much when just yesterday she was singing praise of the Tian family." Wei Jun's mother, whose na he found out to be Pei Ruan, replied to Sun Ruan's remark.
"Who poisoned you?" Wei Jun wasn't interested in these useless things. He wanted to know who was the main target that he needed to deal with. If the old man Ruan was poisoned, he could also be in danger.
"I have no idea. One day I was fine while the next day, I began to vomit and then started feeling weak all over." Sun Ruan described his poisoning and also told him everything he knew after that.
Wei Jun found nothing useful in that information so he remained quiet while the family discussed more things.
Finally, the question of the hour was brought up by Sun Ruan, "Xiao Wei, how did you cure ? Not only was I cured, but I also succeeded in advancing to the next stage even though my limit had been Qi master for almost thirty years?"
Wei Jun didn't reply. He didn't want any headaches over this but he was just being optimistic thinking he wouldn't have to answer this.
"I would rather not say, grandfather. It was a favor to soone very powerful and I was asked not to divulge any information about it." Wei Jun leisurely answered with no facial distortions that might depict him lying or hiding sothing.
"I see." Sun Ruan replied. They were all broiling their own theories and Wei Jun was more than happy to let them.
'Xiao Wei seems to have a connection with soone strong.' But if Wei Jun knew the thoughts inside everyone's heads, he might have laughed out loud.
"What should we do now, grandfather?" Lin Ruan asked once this was over with. Now they needed to decide what to do next.
"Be cautious of the people around you. I will contact a few old friends to hire guards for all of you. And regarding business, adopt an aggressive approach from now on. Not only target our rival companies without any disregard but also use whatever ans you can to rake every business to ourselves." Sun Ruan instructed.
Wei Jun nodded with a smile. He liked this approach. This was how he had built several business empires in his original world. Taking everything he could without caring for the ans. Of course, even a person like him didn't cross the line but it was different for those who crossed the said line first.
"Also, a rumor has surfaced recently." Lin Ruan said before this conversation ended. Wei Jun who was about to stand up, annoyingly sat back down.
"What is it?" Sun Ruan asked but Lin Ruan hesitated as she glanced at Wei Jun, worried about his reaction. Still, after a few monts of inner debate, she decided to divulge this information, "The Yu family and the Tian family are currently in a relationship. Especially their young master, Yao Tian had been spotted many tis with Liu Yu."
As this information was revealed, everyone turned to Wei Jun to witness his reaction but they were puzzled as the sa uninterested expression remained on his face since the beginning of this conversation.
