This was the human heart. Even if it didn’t belong to me, since you’ve made a promise, it’s mine. No matter what the reason was, once you take back your words, you’ll be violating my interests, and I’ll instinctively turn hostile.
“Then I’ll be waiting for your good news, Xiao Lin.” Wang Tianfeng raised his glass.
Lin Yi raised a brow.”That’s not a big problem, but this one move shouldn’t be enough. At most, I’ll just cause him some trouble. It shouldn’t be a serious injury, right?”
Even if this move was effective, it would at most turn the situation from one to nine to two to eight. If Wang Tianfeng wanted to rely on this to turn the tables, he was dreaming.
“You have to be patient and take one step at a time in chess. If you bet all your chips at once, there’s nothing left to play. Let’s throw a stone to find the way first.”
Wang Tianfeng smiled deeply and clinked his glass with Lin Yi ‘s, both of them drinking in one gulp.
At the same time, the other popular candidate for the family head, Wang Tianwen, was also entertaining a young junior, the former president of the talisman society, Jiang Ziheng.
“Ziheng, you’ve contributed a lot to instigating the talisman society to turn against us. Uncle Wen offers you a toast!”
Wang Tianwen personally got up and poured a cup of wine for Jiang Ziheng. Unlike Wang Tianfeng’s homely yellow wine, this was a genuine top-grade spirit wine. Even if it was slightly inferior to tyrant’s thousand-year-old wine, it was not far from it.
Jiang Ziheng laughed.”Uncle Wen, you’re too kind. I have a deep grudge against Lin Yi. I can use this opportunity to teach him a lesson. I’ll be killing two birds with one stone.”
The two of them did not know that the few higher-ups of the talisman making society that they had incited to defect had been turned into fools.
After the wine, Wang Tianwen said in high spirits,””Let them attend the voting meeting tomorrow to represent the talisman society. This way, it’ll be mutually consensual, and it’ll be in vain even if Wang Tianfeng wants to trip me up!”
“If we swallow the talisman making society, all the branches of the Wang family will benefit greatly. Whoever dares to interfere in this matter will be the enemy of the entire Wang family. I wonder if that person has the courage to risk universal condemnation!”
Jiang Ziheng’s face was full of resentment when he mentioned Wang Tianfeng. When he and Tang Yun were together, Wang Tianfeng was the biggest obstacle in the Wang family besides the Grand Elder.
If it wasn’t for Wang Tianfeng supporting Wang Yuming and Tang Yun, he would’ve taken Tang Yun into his room already, and Lin Yi wouldn’t even be here.
Wang Tianwen laughed.”He’s always been very bold, but most of the time, just being bold is useless. He’ll only knock his head and bleed. This time, I really hope that he won’t be afraid and contribute some entertainment to this good show that we’ve carefully arranged.”
“Uncle Wen, aren’t you afraid that you’ll fail miserably in an easy task?” Jiang Ziheng reminded.
“Will you?”
Wang Tianwen had a mocking expression on his face. No one knew his advantage better than him. On the battlefield, they were evenly matched. The rumor was that it was a 90 – 10 chance, but in fact, it was basically a 100 – 10 chance. As long as they continued to develop smoothly, the result would already be decided, and the rest would just be a formality.
Jiang Ziheng laughed.”It seems that uncle Wen is very confident. The city Lord is also happy to see young master Li’s intentions. We look forward to uncle Wen’s in-depth strategic cooperation with the talisman Wang family after you come to power. The city Lord still admires you very much.”
“Oh, really? Then I’m really flattered. ”
Wang Tianwen pretended to be happy and drank a cup. He then said,””I might need the city Lord’s mansion to help me stop the Jianghai Academy from annexing the talisman society. Even though logically speaking, the Jianghai Academy is currently busy with their own affairs and would not meddle in this matter, it would still be troublesome if someone were to take the wrong path and make a move.”
It wasn’t just a little troublesome. If the Wang family were to go up against Jianghai University on their own, they would definitely be crushed to pieces.
Previously, no one had dared to have such thoughts. It was precisely because of this that if things changed, no one in the Wang clan would be able to bear such a huge responsibility.
It was only because of this opportunity, the fact that the city Lord’s mansion was behind the scenes, and the fact that the clan head was running for his position, that Wang Tianwen had personally thrown this matter out.
Jiang Ziheng patted his chest and guaranteed.”Uncle Wen, don’t worry. As long as the two sides form a strategic alliance, the matters of the Wang family will be the city Lord’s matters. There will be no objections. This is the city Lord’s original words that young master Li personally conveyed.”
“Then I wonder when I can meet with the city Lord to discuss this?”
Wang Tianwen took the opportunity to ask. The current Jiang Ziheng was no longer the junior who had visited in the past, but a broker of the city lord’s estate. Otherwise, he would not have lowered his status and invited the other party to a banquet.
“Young master Li said that the city Lord is also looking forward to meeting you, uncle Wen. However, the Wang family is currently running for the position of the head of the family. If you go to see the city Lord at this time, it will inevitably give people the illusion that the city Lord is interfering in the internal affairs of the Wang family. It will also have a negative impact on your campaign. What do you think, uncle Wen?”
Jiang Ziheng raised his glass unhurriedly, his posture quite on point.
Wang Tianwen was silent for a moment before he finally laughed and clinked his cup with his. “That’s true, I was a little too impatient. ”
“It’s human nature, I can understand. ”
“Uncle Wen, when you become the master of the Wang family, you can go and meet with the city Lord. It will be perfectly justifiable, and no one will be able to say anything,” Jiang Ziheng said indifferently.
“That’s right. Although I don’t have much patience, I can still wait for a few days. ”
Wang Tianwen had figured out the key point, and for a moment, both the host and the guest were in a good mood, until an old servant hurriedly walked in and whispered a few words in his ear.
“What? Shaochuan was knocked unconscious?”
Wang Tianwen’s face paled.
Jiang Ziheng’s expression changed slightly as well. Wang shaochuan was the only son of the mayor, and he doted on him as much as the mayor doted on li Muyang. Anyone who dared to lay a hand on Wang shaochuan had touched his reverse scale, and he would not let it go!
Killing intent instantly filled the air. Wang Tianwen’s killing intent was evident.””Who did this?”
“According to the young master’s guards, it’s miss Tang Yun’s bodyguard, Lin Yi,” the servant said after some hesitation.
“Lin Yi?!”
Wang Tianwen was stunned. He was still plotting against the other party’s talisman making society, but he had never expected that his precious son would be the first to be beaten up. He couldn’t help but fly into a rage.”What is Yan Jiang doing? My Wang family has spent a lot of resources to support his dead daughter, and this is how he repays? he can’t even protect my son in my Wang family’s territory?”
In the eyes of outsiders, Yan Jiang was just an unremarkable commander of the Wang clan’s guards. Normally, he didn’t reveal his true strength. All day long, other than smoking, he would just lazily bask in the sun, eat, and wait for death. He had no sense of existence at all.
