A lot of people did not understand.
It was Liao Wenwen’s first time being surrounded and watched like this, and this made her so mad that she could not help the words flowing off her tongue, “Wang Tengyun, how dare you do this to me! Do you not fear my daddy?”
The maid standing by her side followed suit in shouting loudly, “Steward Wang, you better think it through before you speak again!”
“I’ve thought it through very clearly and you will either apologize to these two masters, or you will have to leave Wei Ze World once and for all!” Wang Tengyun laughed briefly. Whatever warmth and gentleness he had previously portrayed in the business field were long gone, all that was left was an expression of frostiness.
Liao Wenwen had not expected the tables to turn on her this way. In a split second, her face turned pale as she screamed, “You’re making me apologize to these two bumpkins? Wang Tengyun, I guess you really do not fear my daddy finding out about this matter!”
“Your daddy?” Wang Tengyun scoffed, “General Liao? Why don’t you go back and ask your daddy if he dares to battle with our Young Master? If he’s brave enough to do so, I’ll go to the Capital and bring our Young Master’s hidden army here right now.” A challenge of force? I’ll crush you easily!
“You…you…” Liao Wenwen was so angry that even her fingers were trembling from fury. Realizing that Wang Tengyun was not going to back down, she shot a glare at Helian Wei Wei and growled, “Just you wait!” With that, she broke into a bawling fit as if she had just been bullied and stumbled tearfully out of the door of Wei Ze World.
One of the receptionists, a local, worriedly reminded Wang Tengyun, “Steward Wang, Miss Liao’s father is…”
“I have my own ways of dealing with it,” Wang Tengyun abruptly cut the receptionist short.
The receptionist shook her head and continued, “Although Liao Qingtian’s official position may not be high, he is very influential in the provincial capital. You should be more mindful, Steward Wang. It really wasn’t necessary to offend her like this over two customers.”
Wang Tengyun could not help but think to himself. Do you even know who those two customers are? If I didn’t drive out that Liao girl, we would have all lost our jobs!
The audacity of her asking their Young Master to leave in Wei Ze World!
She was just shooting herself in the foot and asking for a slap in the face!
Fortunately, he was not familiar with that Liao girl, otherwise…
Wang Tengyun sighed in relief and sought to dismiss the receptionists, “I got it, you can all go back to work…”
The receptionists answered in the affirmative before letting down the curtains.
Making sure that no one else was around, Wang Tengyun finally made his way over to the table where Helian Wei Wei and her company were seated.
Helian Wei Wei smiled, “You sure are popular with the ladies, Steward Wang.”
“Don’t tease me, Young Master.” Wang Tengyun was on the brink of tears.
Helian Wei Wei raised an eyebrow, “From what I saw, that young lady treated you quite well, she even decided Wei Ze World matters on your behalf. You should ask for her hand in marriage and take her home with you quickly, isn’t that a good idea?”
“Young Master…” Wang Tengyun immediately straightened his posture. “There is absolutely nothing between that Liao Wenwen and I. It’s only because her father Liao Qingtian has been trying to get ahold of more weapons from us that we came into contact with each other. Young Master, I’ve sacrificed my entire being just for our store, you cannot possibly misunderstand me.”
Helian Wei Wei’s lips curved up into a smile, “You make Wei Ze World sound like a male brothel. If the business isn’t satisfactory, then just alter the name list somewhat so that our stores elsewhere do not provide martial practice to the Liao family. Keep in mind that this is a rule!”
“Okay, okay!” Wang Tengyun let out a breath of relief. “Young master, what are you doing in the provincial capital?” At this time, shouldn’t the Young Master be in the imperial palace thinking of solutions to deal with the stewards of the Helian family?
Helian Wei Wei carelessly hummed, “I’m here as a magistrate.”
“As a magistrate?” Wang Tengyun’s jaw dropped slightly. As he thought about it, he remembered how lowly the position of a magistrate was and silently turned to look at Baili Jia Jue’s handsome face which could never be ignored. Honestly speaking, when he stood before the Third Prince, he always felt this indescribable pressure. “What about the Third Prince?”
Helian Wei Wei smiled once again, “He’s not a prince as of now, he’s my private advisor.”
Her boastful tone was simply too much, wasn’t he just a private advisor… Wait, what did the Young Master say? Pr-private advisor?
Wang Tengyun gulped loudly. The future crown prince came to the provincial capital to be a private advisor?
Did the Retired Emperor know of this?!
“At first, I thought being an imperial officer was rather easy,” Helian Wei Wei rested her chin on her palms, letting out a long sigh, “I didn’t expect to be bullied wherever I go.”
Wang Tengyun’s mouth twitched, “You got bullied?” Young Master, is your demeanor of peerless superiority merely for show? Not to mention the fact that if you were really bullied, that person beside you could plot their death in a matter of minutes. The Third Prince’s methods are easily crueler than yours!
Helian Wei Wei did not acknowledge the fact that she was brutal at all, she thought she was quite weak and small. Lazily, she said, “Wasn’t your lover from earlier thinking of chasing me out?”
“Young Master, can we just leave this matter in the past.” Wang Tengyun felt like crying again. This truly was a dark phase in his life. What would his brothers in the hidden army say if they found out about this?
Once Helian Wei Wei was done teasing him and fooling around, her tone turned serious, “Since Liao Qingtian wants to cause me trouble, go and tell our brethren to come to the provincial capital and prepare for a light battle.”
“Cause you trouble?” Wang Tengyou furrowed his brows, “Why? Even though that Liao Qingtian is a b*stard, he’s very particular as an official. Since you’re the newly appointed magistrate, wouldn’t the first thing he should do is to win you over?”
Helian Wei Wei’s smile was exuberant, “That’s because before I came to the provincial capital, I took a short trip to Fuping and captured his brother and nephew.”
Wang Tengyun was speechless.
“Also…” Helian Wei Wei paused, the corners of her lips curling upward, “I plan to order the closure of the Bayview Restaurant.”
Wang Tengyun had also heard the news about the Bayview Restaurant and as he directed his gaze upward in helplessness, he said, “I bet Liao Qingtian sees the Young Master even in his dreams, and can’t wait to strangle you to death.”
“Thank you, but he’s not my type.” Helian Wei Wei leaned into Baili Jia Jue, her voice loud and clear, “You should go make preparations. I bet our brethren are more than eager to move into action.”
Wang Tengyun lowered his head and answered with the utmost warmth in his tone, “Yes…”
Tonight was destined not to be calm.
The first thing Liao Wenwen did after arriving home was to cry to Liao Qingtian, pointedly referring to ‘those two bumpkins being in the way and it was because of them that Wang Tengyun, who had had feelings for her, drove her right out of Wei Ze World’.
After hearing what his beloved daughter had to say, Liao Qingtian narrowed his eyes, “You just said that between the two, one of them had the surname of Wei?”
“Yes,” Liao Wenwen sniffed, drying her flowing tears.
Liao Qingtian patted her back in an attempt to comfort her and let out a cold laugh, “He isn’t just some bumpkin, he’s the newly appointed magistrate.”
“The newly appointed magistrate? Then…” Liao Wenwen hesitated.
However, Liao Qingtian’s tone became harsh as he spat, “But he did indeed come from the countryside. Don’t worry, once tomorrow is over, that Wei family brat will be nothing but a worthless commoner and you’ll be able to have your way with him!”
The soldiers that were supposed to capture Private Advisor Long should have already moved into action by now. Without his right-hand man, that Wei fellow would not be able to last for long…
