"I gathered everyone here today to discuss a matter.”
The four brothers of the Residence of Yun sat together. Although the surrounding green willows were not as verdant as in summer, under the warm sun that was rarely seen in winter, reflecting the warm light and sparkling waves, it was a different kind of scenery.
The windows of the meeting hall in the dock were wide open, allowing sunlight to shine through and illuminate the vast room.
"If you want me to help with the family business, I don't want it.”Yun Wuxiu, who had guessed most of the things, was too lazy to use her smart brain on serious matters because he found it annoying.
Yun Wuxuan endured it and remained expressionless. Her cold face made the warmth of the sun decrease.
"It can't really be like what Second Brother said, right? Then I don't want it either!" Yun Wuyu was in a hurry to get rid of the burden of the Yun family's huge business. He did not want to ask for trouble. "Big brother, what about you?" Yun Wuyu dodged his third brother's bloodthirsty gaze and quickly pulled another accomplice. If they died together, they wouldn't be lonely!
"Oh? What did you say?"
Yun Wuqi's despondent behavior caused everyone to shake their heads and sigh. A good person had actually fallen into such a state because of a woman, and it was even because of a prostitute who could not be called elegant.
Everyone in the Yun residence knew that Yun Wuqi had given her true feelings to a prostitute and wanted to redeem her. However, the brothel madame saw that the Yun family was rich and must have a lot of money to earn, so she offered a sky-high price. But now, the third son of the Yun Family, Yun Wuxuan, refused to help him no matter what. She even controlled his money and did not allow him to use a large amount of the Yun Family's assets on someone who was not worth it.
"The reason I called everyone here is indeed because I have opened up many business opportunities in recent days. The initial business is the most taxing, but I am gradually feeling overwhelmed.”
Yun Wuxuan's attitude was humble enough. It was rare to see her, but it still couldn't move the brothers who had their own thoughts.
"It's not that you can't bear it, right? I know your ability very well. You want to spend more time with our new guests, right?”Seeing her third brother Yun Wuxuan's even colder expression, Yun Wuxiu smiled proudly! He was right. He really admired his own intelligence.
His younger brother had done an excellent job. In less than three months, he had expanded the territory of the Yun family to Jiangbei. In addition to making his foundation more stable, he did not forget to open up more new sources of income. He worked hard until he did not return to the camp at night. He had not seen his busy figure for many days and had almost forgotten that he had a cold-faced younger brother.
Therefore, who else was more suitable to be the head of the Yun family than him?
This third brother was even more unromantic than a block of wood. He couldn't even be teased. He always had a cold face, which made Yun Wuxiu, who was not kind by nature, like to provoke him. It was better to provoke him to change his face than to let her see his cold expression all the time. Now that there was finally a great opportunity to make his expression change drastically, how could he miss it?
Although it was extremely dangerous to pull a tiger's beard, and she might even be bitten, Yun Wuxiu just couldn't get rid of this bad habit.
Hehe, who taught him to be unlucky? He was two years late and became his younger brother. He couldn't be blamed.
"So what if I am?"
"It's rare that you actually let go. It means that this person is really special to you!”Yun Wuxiu was quite surprised. This was really a good opportunity that had fallen from the heavens. His bad habits had risen again.
Naxiu, who had understood his strange smile, shook his head helplessly behind Yun Wuxiu. Why couldn't he learn? If he really wanted to fight, he would not be able to win against Yun Wuxuan, who was even more scheming.
Naxiu, who was a bystander, could see it clearly, but he couldn't persuade Yun Wuxiu, who was so stubborn in some ways. He could only lend a helping hand when he was defeated again, so that he wouldn't lose too badly.
He couldn't understand that sometimes, victory wasn't his clever thinking, but rather the opponent didn't want to fight him, causing him to be arrogant and forget himself.
"Who are you talking about?"
Yun Wuqi, who had been restricted from going out and had not been thinking about food and tea for several days, did not understand what her brothers were talking about at all. She was like an outsider, not the eldest son of the Yun family.
"It's the person who announced to the public that he's our Fifth Brother.”Yun Wuyu couldn't stand his big brother's lifeless behavior. The hot-tempered Yun Wuyu almost wanted to cut open his big brother's head and see if it had turned into useless mud. He was really stupid.
"Ah, I found Fifth Brother!"
Yun Wuyu rolled her eyes. She didn't want to talk to the idiot who had lost his soul because of the trivial matters of romance. Didn't Big Brother hear the words " announce it to the public "? This meant that he was just looking for someone to fill in the numbers. It couldn't be taken seriously, White-eyed!
"What's wrong? If a blind cat really ran into a dead mouse, even if it was a crooked shot, it could hit the target, but it hit Third Brother's sweetheart with one shot? Isn't this too ridiculous?"
Yun Wuyu, who didn't believe her at first, observed Yun Wuxuan's expression again and again. She looked very serious.
"It's true! Oh my god, then Third Brother should thank me. Don't ask me to go to the study room again, can you? This punishment is too severe!" Yun Wuyu, who couldn't stop for a moment, hated sitting in front of his desk obediently and gnawing on an unfamiliar Tomes of Arcane.
Third Brother's expression did not change, indicating that there was no room for discussion. Damn it, then I won't help you either!
Yun Wuyu only dared to curse in his heart. He didn't have the guts to say it out loud.
"If I need your help, I naturally won't let you do it for free.”
Yun Wuxuan's words attracted the attention of the other brothers of the Yun family. They finally began to talk about the theme of the meeting.
"Big brother, what do you want the most now?”Yun Wuxuan, who was currently the head of the Residence of Yun, asked him a question that he already knew the answer to.
"One million taels, I want a ransom of one million taels!”
"Big brother!"
Yun Wuxiu and Yun Wuyu wanted to stop Yun Wuqi's foolish behavior in unison. Although the Yun family could afford to pay, it was indeed unnecessary to waste it.
"Alright."
"Third Brother!"
"Third brother!"
Yun Wuxiu and Yun Wuyu shouted in unison again," Boss was dumbfounded, and so was Third Brother. The Yun family was finished!
"But there are conditions."
"As long as you are willing to let me pay this one million taels, I will agree to anything.”Yun Wuqi, whose eyes had finally regained their usual vigor, was still looking at the young woman who occasionally emitted a delicate fragrance.
"As long as big brother is willing to take on the burden of all the cloud business in the east of the city for two months, I will transfer this money to you before the next draw.”
"What's the problem with that? It's just that in the east of the city, compared to the workload of helping Father in the past, this is nothing at all.”
Yun Wuqi kept promising, but Yun Wuxuan's expression didn't change. Yun Wuxiu, on the other hand, stared at Yun Wuxuan without blinking, trying to figure out something. What was his third brother planning?
She couldn't bear for him to stare at her for too long, and she would only get nothing but tears in her eyes. She turned sideways to block Yun Wuxiu's line of sight, and used her expression to tell him to stop struggling.
Yun Wuxiu, who couldn't figure out the reason, couldn't help but be curious. She knew that it was his turn next.
"Second brother, what do you want the most now?”
His third brother asked the same question, but he changed the way he addressed him. Yun Wuxiu thought as she raised his delicate eyebrows. What did he want?
Suddenly, an idea popped into his mind, causing his eyes to light up.
He's having crooked ideas again, Xio thought.
"My request is actually very simple…"
He deliberately didn't finish his sentence in one go, trying to bait someone, but unfortunately, the person he wanted to bait wouldn't take the bait.
"Please speak."
"I want the distinguished guest in your room…to accompany me.”
He knew that Yun Wuxuan had made all the concessions for that person, but Yun Wuxiu loved to go against him and fight with him.
"Do you have to?"
Seeing that he didn't want her to leave, Yun Wuxiu wanted her even more.
"It depends on whether you're willing or not!"
"Every day and every night?"
Yun Wuxiu tried not to show the pleasure in her heart. In fact, the smirk on his lips had already revealed everything. Naxiu, who had been by his side for many years, smiled bitterly with a hint of affection.
"No, no, no. I won't be so greedy and inhumane.”Yun Wuxiu changed her posture, took a sip of tea, and slowly said,""I'll lend him as long as you want me to help you. Is that fair enough?”
"Is that so? Then I want to be alone too."
"Please speak."
"Then, Xiu."
"Why?"
He could choose anyone, but he had to choose someone who was as important as losing his brother. As expected, it was his biological brother. Who was begging whom now? He had to take it seriously.
"Borrowing Naxiu's talent."
His good younger brother also knew that Xio not only had good martial arts, but he also had a good business mind.
"But since you want my help, you can't do without him.”
"Fenghuo can help. Don't underestimate him.”
"What if I say I want both?"
"Then I'll transfer that Xiu to the Northern Gretel Residence to accompany Fenghuo.”
"How dare you!"
"Don't forget, I'm the person in charge that everyone strongly recommended and supported. It's impossible for me to not be able to handle such a small matter like transferring personnel in the Residence of Yun.”
"You!"
Forget it, a wise man would not eat the loss in front of him. Third Brother had that delicate guest in his heart, so he would make him unable to see him. Let's see who could endure it for a long time!
"Alright, it's settled then. Tonight, I want Zhu Fenghuo to appear in my Xi Xi Pavilion.”
Yun Wuxuan nodded slightly, indicating that the topic was over.
Finally, it was my turn. He was the youngest in the rankings, so this was his disadvantage. Everything was last.
Yun Wuyu was about to say what he wanted…Oh, there were so many of them. What should he choose first?
"I know you always want to go out and play. It's best if you can play for a few years. You don't have to go home.”
"Third Brother is still the smartest." She said what he was thinking.
"I agree to let you go out. You just have to come back every time you draw lots. You can also use all the silver notes in the Yun family.”
That good? He found it hard to believe.
Yun Wuyu, who knew how to be suspicious, was not stupid. It was just that she was easily fooled by the sweet temptation in front of her.
"As long as you're willing to help, I only need two months.”
"What's the problem? Chengnan Enterprise, right? Two months?”He just needed to hand it over to Guan Shui and everything would be settled. He didn't need to worry at all. Who told Guan Shui to be destined to stay by his side and be his follower?
There were less than three months left before the four brothers would change hands and compete in luck and strategy. As for what Yun Wuxuan wanted to do in these two months, only he knew.
The night was clear and bright, and the lights were lit. The Residence of Yun was brighter than the day.
A lively night, which was different from usual, unfolded on the dock on the water. The winding wooden bridge was filled with bright lights on both sides, and all kinds of water lanterns were placed on the water surface. It was as if the stars in the sky had moved to the ground and the water surface. It was beautiful.
Under Yun Wuxiu's urging, Zhu Fenghuo could only catch a glimpse of Yun Wuxuan, who was passing by Beiling Restaurant. He had already left Beiling Residence where he had been staying for a month and moved to Xi Xi Xuan. In this short month, the number of times they had met was really few.
Yun Wuxiu pulled Zhu Fenghuo along to introduce him to Yangzhou City, to introduce him to the Cloud Enterprise, to ask him to make the accounts, and to accompany the visitors. At night, she would even pull him along to chat. The idle days of the past seemed to have gone away. He was so busy that he didn't even have time to think about him.
He wasn't thinking about anyone!
It had been more than ten days since she saw him again today, and she was far away. She couldn't touch him or touch him.
"What are you thinking about?"
Hah! Suddenly, a voice rang out beside his ear, scaring Zhu Fenghuo so much that he dropped his cup and splashed it all over his clothes. The tea stains spread on the light-colored fabric, forming an unattractive ink painting.
"What are you so engrossed in?" Yun Wuxiu loved to ask the obvious and tease the blushing girl. His nature was just so bad.
"No, who is the honored guest today?”
Heh, changing the topic? Forget it, I won't force you.
"Third Brother's bad friend, the governor of Yangzhou, Wang Dan. The two of them have known each other since they were young. Later, she heard that he admired Wu Xuan's talent and insisted on making Wu Xuan a friend. After pestering her for a long time, Wu Xuan let him be.”
Wang Dan was a heroic person, and he was much better than his brothers, but he always liked to touch them and put his arms around their shoulders to show his closeness. Looking at Fenghuo's jealous eyes, his third brother was really blessed. He could always get what he wanted. Therefore, as his second brother, he should teach him a lesson and increase the difficulty of his life. He should stop him from doing so that he would not know how to cherish what he got too easily.
Look at how kind-hearted he is as her second brother!
Just as Yun Wuxiu was feeling smug, a small incident happened in the pavilion opposite.
"Eh? Strange, why was Big Brother Xiu in the Provincial Governor's arms? Was he uncomfortable?”Coincidentally, he saw Naxiu fall into Wang Dan's arms, and Zhu Fenghuo instinctively worried about Naxiu's health. Could it be that Yun Wuxuan was too angry with Yun Wuxiu and had thrown too much work on Naxiu out of anger?
Would Yun Wuxuan be so petty? It wouldn't happen.
"What?!"
After saying that, Zhu Fenghuo could only stare at Yun Wuxiu angrily rushing towards the opposite pavilion.
Where did this anger come from?
From afar, Zhu Fenghuo saw Yun Wuxiu dragging the innocent Naxiu away. Then, Yun Wuxuan, whom he hadn't seen for many days, suddenly turned her head. Although he couldn't see her clearly, he could still clearly feel the burning gaze directed at him.
Zhu Fenghuo felt an inexplicable heat and uncomfortably lowered his head. He casually picked up the pot at the side and hurriedly swallowed every mouthful of bejewelled nectar. He did not realize that the pot was not filled with tea, but the autumn mulberry dew that Yun Wuxuan had prepared for him.
"Is there anyone special there? Why do I see you staring there as if you've lost your soul?”
Yun Wuxuan glanced at the governor of Yangzhou coldly. She did not take this official seriously at all, and Wang Dan did not mind. No matter how many times he was pushed away, he still put his arm around the governor's shoulder, trying to get some information.
What kind of person could attract the ice man's attention? How could his self-proclaimed good friend of many years not know?
Following his line of sight, Wang Dan saw a figure in a daze. The figure was staggering as if he could not stand straight. The pavilion that the person was in was in the middle of the water, surrounded by low railings. If the person collapsed, it was very likely that he would fall into the water. Going into the water to sober up in winter? What a terrible idea!
"Aiya, I'm really going to fall! Do you think we should…Eh? Where is he?" Wang Dan, who was busy speaking, saw that the man was in a dangerous situation and was about to ask his master to solve the problem, but when he turned around, his master had already left.
He turned back to see if the person had really fallen into the water to clear his head. Only then did he realize that his good friend had already rushed to the side of the person and caught him.
"So this kid's qinggong is not bad! What a hidden expert!" With such praise, he felt that he had made the right friend. "I have to find out who that person is and ask him how to melt the iceberg.”
After Wang Dan finished speaking, he began to ask around. However, he did not expect that the people around him were all good servants trained by Yun Wuxuan. They were tight-lipped, and he could not find any clues.
However, he was Wang Dan, and he would not give up easily. If this path did not work, there had to be another one. The more he did not let him know, the more he wanted to find out. He would do his best to investigate.
Beiling Residence
The two irrational bodies were entangled and unable to be pulled apart.
"Why didn't you run away from other places but came here?”Yun Wuxiu angrily questioned Naxiu. He belonged to Xi Xi Xuan, not Beiling House!
"You asked me to come here. What's wrong with that?”Naxio retorted coldly, as if he had been infected by Yun Wuxuan's coldness after staying in the Beiling Residence for a few days.
He was furious that Yun Wuxiu had been dragged away like a dog at the banquet, and he had lost all his face. It was true that he had risked his life for the Yun family, but he did not remember that he had to sell his self-esteem.
Ever since he had traded him for Zhu Fenghuo, he had already understood his position in his heart. Other than being a guard, risking his life for him, and blocking a fatal blade for him, he was nothing. No matter what kind of past they had, he was just like the passersby in Yun Wuxiu's life, leaving behind unimportant, vague, or even forgotten memories. There was nothing else. He was nothing.
The more Xio thought about it, the colder her heart became. She was so disappointed that she wanted to leave, but she couldn't let go. Perhaps she would have to wait until her heart died before she could really leave.
"How dare you talk back! Good job, I only let you come to the Beiling Residence for a few days and you were actually taught to be like this, forgetting who I am to you!”
"Ever since I came to the Beiling Residence, you are no longer someone to me and have nothing to do with me!”Naxiu, who had been provoked, didn't speak like a master and servant in the past. He coldly wanted to clear the air.
From this incident, it could be seen that his existence was not important to him at all, so it made no difference whether he followed the etiquette or not.
"Damn it, I have to remind you of the extraordinary relationship between us!”
"Bullshit, we didn't…Mm!”
Yun Wuxiu, who looked gentle and slender, was actually strong and muscular. His body was covered with beautiful muscles, telling the results of his martial arts practice.
The brute force he used when he was agitated was even more shocking. He fiercely pressed Naxiu, who was almost as tall as him, on the table. He used a force that seemed to want to break Naxiu's slender waist, making it impossible for him to escape. Then, he bit Naxiu's lips as if he was punishing him, leaving a red mark that belonged to him.
Naxiu had tried her best to resist, hitting him, grabbing him, kicking him, but she could only hurt him on the surface and could not move Yun Wuxiu at all. Gradually, his breathing was taken away and he lost the strength to fight back. He collapsed under him, leaving only ambiguous moans that escaped intermittently.
"Ah!" A surprised voice sounded at the same time.
Yun Wuxuan, who had already known what was going on, had brought Zhu Fenghuo here on purpose to broaden her horizons and pave the way for the future.
However, Zhu Fenghuo, who was not mentally prepared at all, could not help but exclaim, interrupting the lovebirds 'show.
Yun Wuxiu, who was annoyed by the interruption, turned her head fiercely and glared at the culprit who should bear all the blame.
He, he actually dared to leave an unknown red mark on his body!
Yun Wuxiu stared at the bright red mark on her collar. She couldn't believe that Xio had betrayed her!#
