Chapter 174: Chapter 174: How dare I offend such a ruthless person!
"Who are you?"
Song Yun gave the middle-aged man an odd look; although his demeanor had already revealed his extraordinary status, he was still a stranger after all.
"I'm an old school friend of Secretary Cheng and currently the top leader in Magic Capital."
Yue Ji looked at Song Yun's lively appearance and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Wu Ji and Chi Liangshi, watching Song Yun and Yue Ji becoming progressively more familiar with each other, felt their hearts sink, and exchanging glances, they each saw a hint of fear in the other's eyes.
"Lord Yue, do you know this young man...?"
Wu Ji stepped forward and cautiously inquired.
Yue Ji turned his head and looked down at him with a cold gaze, asking, "Was it you who sent the thugs to attack President Song just now?"
Fuck!!!
Here it comes!!!
The big hat has finally been thrown onto his own head!
Wu Ji's legs trembled with fear as he spoke with a terrified expression, "No... I wouldn't dare..."
"Spill it. What exactly happened today? If there's any concealment, it's time to pull on your Wu family's little pigtails!"
Wu Ji, at this point, dared not tell a lie and recounted exactly what had just happened.
"What era are we in now! Still sticking to the old ways of parental matchmaking!"
Yue Ji pointed at Wu Ji with heartfelt disappointment and scolded, "As a top family of Magic Capital, instead of thinking about how to benefit society, you're playing tricks in matters of children's personal feelings—I deeply despise you!"
"Yes, yes, it's my fault, my fault..."
"President Song, we've more or less cleared things up. This was a family matter between the Wu and Chi families, and it was indeed inappropriate for you to intervene so rashly..."
Upon hearing this, Wu Ji's eyes lit up. Thank goodness! This was like being punished equally. Once Yue Ji left, he could find a way to deal with this young man.
However, Yue Ji's following words made Wu Ji's spirits drop somewhat.
"Let's put today's matter to rest. Both sides are pillars of the Magic Capital's talent; don't let a trifle like this damage your strength. What do you think, Wu Ji?"
"Yes, yes, you're right..."
"What about you, Chi Liangshi?"
"I... I accept the mediation..."
Yue Ji's words left the surrounding people in surprise; no one expected a big shot of Magic Capital to reprimand heads of two first-class families for the sake of a young man. Just who was this young person?
"Perhaps you're not aware of President Song's identity, and it is no wonder, since you, young man, don't often appear in public, their ignorance isn't surprising." Yue Ji said, laughing and pointing at Song Yun, "This gentleman is Song Yun, the richest man in Magic Capital. Now do you understand?"
The richest man in Magic Capital???
Fuck!!!
Wu Ji suppressed his own little thoughts hard, Damn it, no wonder he'd thought this young chap seemed familiar, so outstanding. He turned out to be the richest man!!!
Had it been Father Ye who came today, Wu Ji wouldn't have been overly afraid.
But Song Yun was different!
He had recently taken on the Nangong Family head-on and even swallowed up all their businesses, without any reprisal, which alone proved that the power behind Song Yun was even more formidable than the Nangong Family!
How could he dare to offend such a ruthless person!
"President Song! I was blind and failed to recognize your greatness!"
Wu Ji bowed deeply to Song Yun and said, "I hope you, being a great man, won't bother with a minor figure like me!"
Chi Liangshi clenched his fists tight, very excited!
Fuck!
Could it be that the richest man had taken a liking to his daughter?
As for already being married, he considered it a trifle; after all, which big shot out there didn't keep a few mistresses!
If his own daughter could truly attach herself to the side of the wealthiest man, perhaps the Chi Family... could soar high just like the Ye family???
Considering this, Chi Liangshi said to Wu Ji, "Family Head Wu, let's set aside the marriage for now. After all, my youngest daughter and your son share no emotional foundation. Forcing a union would only invite trouble, don't you think?"
By now, Wu Ji had cursed Chi Liangshi a hundred times over in his heart.
You inhuman creature!
Do you think I don't know what you're thinking?
You just want to use your daughter to climb up to Song Yun's high branch!
Now look what's happened; you didn't get the man, and the Wu family is getting dumped first!
From now on, the Wu family will become a laughingstock in high society in Magic Capital!
But under the watchful eyes of Ouyang Rong and Yue Ji, Wu Ji could only swallow his bitterness like a mute eating coptis, and helplessly nod in agreement.
"Uncle Yue, shall we find a place to grab a bite?"
In response to Song Yun's enthusiastic invitation, Yue Ji waved his hand and said, "I came here today specifically to find you. Look who's standing outside?"
Song Yun looked in the direction Yue Ji was pointing and saw Secretary Cheng standing at the door, smiling and nodding.
"Uncle Cheng! It's quite the honor, but you should have let me know in advance!"
Song Yun walked over to Secretary Cheng with a hint of complaint.
"I was brought along by the Ouyang Family Head at the last minute."
Secretary Cheng's words surprised Song Yun. Ouyang Rong was here too?
He craned his neck to look outside, but didn't see Ouyang Rong's figure. Secretary Cheng patted Song Yun's shoulder and said, "Let's go, President Song, the Ouyang Family Head is already waiting for you at the restaurant."
"Don't call me that; it'll make me the butt of jokes," pleaded Song Yun, hands pressed together.
"Did you come to Magic Capital for something this time?"
"It's confidential."
Fine, another matter that couldn't be discussed openly. Song Yun was about to head over with Ye Qingqing, but seeing Chi Lu standing in place, isolated, he softened his heart and decided to take her along as well.
Linjiang Restaurant, inside the most ordinary private room, sat a middle-aged man with an authoritative demeanor, waiting for something.
Suddenly, someone knocked on the room's door, and he rose to his feet with a smile, saying, "Come in."
Secretary Cheng entered, followed by Yue Ji, Song Yun, Ye Qingqing, Chi Lu, and Huang Baoding, one after another.
Ouyang Rong gestured for everyone to sit and said to Huang Baoding, "You've been doing well for yourself in Magic Capital, fattening up quite a bit by Song Yun's side."
"Family Head Ouyang, hello!"
Huang Baoding stood behind Song Yun and saluted Ouyang Rong.
"And this is?"
Ouyang Rong's gaze once again fell on Chi Lu, his look curious as he eyed Song Yun. You rascal... You didn't follow in your father's footsteps and start dallying with women, did you?
"This is my close girlfriend. She came with me today to broaden her horizons," explained Ye Qingqing on behalf of Song Yun.
Your source is m-vl|em|p,yr
Chi Lu nodded slightly towards Ouyang Rong, her mind utterly shocked. Song Yun was so young, yet every day, he dealt with what sort of people!
Not to mention the Magic Capital heavyweight Yue Ji, even this seemingly harmless middle-aged man in front of her seemed to be the head of the Ouyang Family from Forty-nine City!
The Ouyang Family! A prominent clan she often heard about even overseas. Song Yun showed not the slightest bit of sycophancy in front of such a person. What exactly was their relationship...
"Now that everyone's here, let's begin," said Ouyang Rong without any airs, summoning everyone to start eating like the friendly uncle next door.
After three rounds of drinks, Song Yun curiously asked, "Uncle Ouyang, what brings you to Magic Capital this time?"
