"What are you looking at?" A handso man sowhere between 25-28 asked rudely. Wei Jun remained quiet. His focus wasn't on him in the first place.
"Your boss." Wei Jun said before he added, "I have a business proposal for her."
Although the young man was annoyed by that attitude, he still turned to look at the woman who nodded in return. The man stepped aside, letting Wei Jun pass.
"Miss Peng, I presu?" Wei Jun asked with a straight expression but with his face turned to the man, the words weren't really displaying their true aning.
"Yes." The girl replied.
Wei Jun nodded and began with an introduction of himself, "I am Wei Jun Ruan. It is a pleasure to et you."
Wei Jun extended his hand. Now although not taking the hand would be rude, taking it would deliver another type of news that wasn't so amicable for the reputation of the young girl. After all, being seen with Wei Jun, who had a reputation for being the worst person to ever exist, her reputation might also end up taking a hit.
But she took his hand anyway.
Not doing so by believing in so rumors would be rude after all.
Seeing was believing. She would observe for herself and then decide. After all, it wasn't like Wei Jun could force her.
"I am very inspired by your business and the way you conduct it. I was hoping you wouldn't mind eting for lunch tomorrow. We can discuss business that can be beneficial for both of us." Wei Jun said while handing over his card that had his office and personal number as well.
Yue Peng looked at the card and then at Wei Jun. She nodded as she pocketed the card and said, "I will let you know by the evening."
Wei Jun nodded and left while saying, "Have a nice day."
"You too." Yue Peng replied with courtesy.
The brief exchange ca to an end but Wei Jun could feel the glare of the man from earlier. The man who was her bodyguard but also there with ulterior motives.
Well, he was a nice guy so a few ulterior motives weren't a bad thing anyway.
Wei Jun, however, was a variable the man couldn't afford so he decided to dig up so information on him.
After all, he didn't like variables. That was the kind of man Shao Chen was.
**********
'It's different.' Wei Jun said in his head while driving his car.
[What is, host?]
'Everything.' Wei Jun replied.
[So you noticed]
'You think I wouldn't?' Wei Jun asked, offended by the fact that the system would even think so.
'I noticed it before but I just thought it was my mind playing tricks on . maybe I saw it wrong or sothing but I cannot be wrong in both cases.' Wei Jun said.
What he ant by everything that was different was that there was the addition of so new things. When Wei Jun ca to this world, the first thing he did after becoming active was to get information on the entire city. That also included the city's families, the nas of the bureaucrats, the companies in it, and the geography of the city.
It had no ntion of the Peng family. However, when Wei Jun tasked Mark Wilson to run a check on Shao Chen, he inford him that he worked for so Peng family's young miss.
Wei Jun was skeptical because he hadn't heard that na before. So he decided to run a check on the city once again. This ti, there were so more families, so more companies, so more bureaucrats, and most of all, the size of the city had extended a bit.
Wei Jun thought that he had researched it wrong before, but he couldn't have been wrong in every aspect. The city had changed.
[Well, of course it did]
[The grade of the novel increased from 1 to 2 so the changes have to be according to that as well]
[Not just this city]
[The entire world changed]
[The power at work here is far beyond your imagination]
[Expanding the size of the world is child's play]
Wei Jun seriously contemplated the issue. It wasn't the fact that it was an impossible thing. If he could be brought to another world, then there was a good chance many other things were possible as well.
However, what Wei Jun was overwheld by the power of an individual to do so.
'Is it the world?' Wei Jun asked.
[If the world could do sothing like this]
[It wouldn't ever stay here]
The system replied with another thing that didn't make any sense to him. Wei Jun couldn't understand the essence of the issue here and the power of the beings involved.
This was all too new for him and he was overwheld by many, many factors at once.
'Then who is it?' Wei Jun asked.
[…]
No reply ca. Wei Jun understood what that ant so he remained quiet. After all, he didn't know what was at stake here. He couldn't fully comprehend the entire issue with his newfound knowledge.
The only way to do that was to keep moving forward. And to move forward, Wei Jun needed to defeat the protagonists.
*************
Shao Chen returned to the office of Yue Peng. Once they were alone, He could not help but say, "Miss, I don't think it is a good idea to et that man."
Yue Peng looked at him with expressionless eyes and said, "I don't rember asking for your advice. And besides, he didn't look like he had any ulterior motives."
"You cannot judge a person fully by their actions." Shao Chen tried to persuade her but it didn't have any effect, "So should I treat you the sa?" Yue Peng asked in return.
Shao Chen had no reply to that because he was also there just for his own purposes. The family he was after was the family to which Yue Peng was engaged. It wasn't an engagent of happiness but nothing but the lechery of the young master of that family.
Yue Peng was beautiful so he wanted her. Shao Chen saw it as a convenient way to destroy that man's life. See his fiancée being stolen in front of his eyes. That would be his first move against that family.
Besides, he wasn't entirely there with impure intentions. Yue Peng wasn't happy with that marriage so he was sort of doing her a favor as well. Or at least that was how he viewed his actions.
"But I stil---" He began to say when he was interrupted by Yue Peng who said, "Mister Chen, for so reason you think my life is any of your business."
This ti, there was no expressionless face. This ti, there was nothing but coldness on her face.
"I think it would be better if you guarded from outside my room until further notice." Yue Peng said, the sa cold expression on her face.
Shao Chen hesitated, he didn't want to blow his chances with Yue Peng, his ticket to the family he was after. So he decided to give in for now and try again later.
He ca out and sent another guard in while taking his spot outside the office.
"You look troubled, young man." The other bodyguard, a slightly older man in his forties said.
"It's nothing major. It's just that my gut is telling that guy from earlier isn't good news and that ma'am shouldn't et him." Shao Chen explained to the other guard.
"Well, I understand what you an. He has a reputation for forcing himself on won." The older guard said.
"What?" Shao Chen was shocked. He didn't think it was that deep. All he thought was that it must have been the case of a playboy. He never expected it to be that.
"Yeah. And it's much worse. He has been spotted with several won despite being engaged and even now that he is married, he's still rumored to be involved with the famous actress Xia Lu." The other guard man explained.
"What do you an? I didn't know she was that type of girl." Shao Chen said that because Xia Lu had a good reputation.
"Ahh… You know these rich playboys. They know how to trap young won. I bet he also approached young miss under the guise of business but intends to make a move on her." The old man explained more.
"Then, isn't that bad? Shouldn't we stop her?" shao Chen asked.
"What can we do? All we can do is protect her in case sothing like that happens." The older guard said.
Shao Chen nodded but he still wasn't satisfied. He couldn't push his progress with Yue Peng, but he could get rid of a variable on his own.
"I need to make a call." Shao Chen said and left.
As he did, the older guard took out his phone and dialed a number on it. once the call connected, the guard said, "I did as you said, young master Ruan."
"Good." Wei Jun said before he asked, "How's your daughter by the way?"
"Thanks to your grace, she can now walk. I hope you can forgive for not being a bigger help to you for what you have done for ." The older guard said.
"You're doing plenty. I will be in touch." Wei Jun said before the call disconnected.
