Stuck in a Chinese novel

A young man was sitting on a recliner and slowly sipping whisky from a glass. He had simple black hair and eyes but his appearance was anything but ordinary. A handsome man who could rival celebrities when it came to appearance could be the only way to properly praise him.

While he was staring at the empty air, drinking his drink in small sips, a man entered the darkened room and greeted the young man, "Good evening, Young Master Tian."

Young Tian nodded which was the permission for the man to continue, "I brought the report from the Ruan family. Would you like to hear it?"

Young Tian didn't reply for a while before he said, "I don't want to hear how our meticulous plan failed, I just want to know because of who it failed." Young Tian spoke with hatred in his voice.

The man hesitated. There were a few things that Young Tian hated. What he was about to say was one of them. He couldn't afford to make his master angry.

"Butler Sa, are you aware I don't like being kept in the dark?" Young Tian threateningly spoke. The man, also known as Butler Sa inwardly sighed. Seeing no other choice, he named the person who had caused young Tian's plans to fail, "According to the reports of the spies, it was Wei Jun Ruan.

Reports indicate that Sun Ruan was poisoned according to the plan and his condition was worsening by the minute. However, when Wei Jun Ruan showed up, he alone went into the room where Sun Ruan was, and the rest is history."

Young Tian was already aware of the cultivation advancement of Sun Ruan. Not only was Sun Ruan wasn't dead but his power had increased by one level.

"What's the damage?" Young Tian asked next, suppressing his bubbling anger with great effort.

Butler Sa sighed once again and began his report, "The mayor declined our requests to expand after this incident. As for the bill, nothing is certain about it. Also, with the Ruan family suddenly going on the offensive like this, many of our medical businesses have taken a great loss. Along with that, the real estate business and the chemical factories are also in a pinch. And…"

Young Tian interrupted Butler Sa at this point as he had had enough of the report. The damages were massive and he didn't want to hear about them anymore. "What of the families?"

Butler Sa hesitated just like he hesitated when Wei Jun Run was discussed. Still, this time, young Tian didn't have to warn Butler Sa, "The families are hesitating to cooperate after this. Some are even complaining that even though we assured them of the Ruan family fall, not only are they completely fine, but they are stronger than ever.

Some are even blaming us for the losses they have to bear because of the Ruan family's offensive."

"Tch… Leeches." Young Tian cursed. When they were in power, these families were flattering and lathering them in butter but now that things have taken a slightly difficult turn, they have all turned on them.

"What did father say about this?" Young Tian finally asked what mattered to him the most.

"That…" Butler Sa didn't know how to compile the correct words to make that answer. Young Tian turned to look at him, his eyes filled with a fury which caused the butler Sa to finally let go and answer, "He has handed over all authority to Young Master Noh."

The glass in young Tian's hand shattered as soon as he heard this answer. Finally, the anger inside of him couldn't be contained as he yelled, "WEI JUN RUAN!!!!!!"

At the same time, in another mansion, a father and daughter were engaged in an intense debate.

"Father, it's just a minor setback. If we let go of all plans right now, we won't get anything." Liu Yu argued with her father who remained seated in a great chair without caring what his daughter was saying.

"That's enough out of you. You will do nothing now. Just be prepared to go to the congratulatory dinner on Saturday." Liu's father, Zen Yu spoke in a reprimanding tone and ended the debate with his daughter. Liu Yu was at a loss as she had been trying to convince her father for a long time but he wasn't budging.

Without a choice, she begrudgingly left the study room where she was. A man in his forties, dressed in a butler suit bowed when she left the room.

She didn't respond and kept trekking for her room. The butler followed after her with a little concerned expression. As soon as Liu Yu opened the door to her room, "Aahhh!!!!!!!!!!" she screamed on top of her lungs.

The butler did nothing and just stood a little far away from her. He was letting her get it out of her system before he would do anything.

"Has there been any word from Yao Tian?" Liu Yu asked when she stopped screaming after a few minutes.

"There hasn't been any. The Tian family is currently in quite a pickle. Also, the control of the corporation has been handed over to Noh Tian. Yao Tian is no longer in control." The butler explained the matter to her in great detail.

Liu Yu clenched her fists in fury and began screaming again for some time. "USELESS!!!! EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THEM!!!!!"

She kept screaming for some time before she calmed down finally after some time. Finally, after what felt like an eternity to the butler, she spoke, "I think it is time to visit my fiancé. Schedule a meeting with him tomorrow. I will finish this for once and for all myself."

The butler didn't say anything for a while but then advised against her decision, "The master wouldn't be happy if he found out."

"Then make sure he doesn't find out." Liu Yu replied and waved her hand which was the signal for the butler to leave. The butler bowed and left the room. As soon as he left, Liu Yu slumped on her bed, sprawled on its surface. She closed her eyes as she thought, 'I refuse to be controlled. No matter what.'
