667: Chapter 656 667: Chapter 656 “Can’t you ever see yourself as the protagonist for once?” Qingluan laughed.
“Ugh, I’d love to be the protagonist, really, and wherever I went, the protagonist’s halo would activate, everyone else would become an idiot, all the women would turn nymphomaniac, eagerly stripping down to come mate with me.
And those enemies of mine would be just as eager to present themselves before me for the killing.
That’s no fun,” Song Yun lamented.
“Life, well, sometimes life is like a play, but it isn’t actually a play.
People in plays can die and come back to life, but if I die, can I come back to life?
Besides, I absolutely detest those brainless dramas.
Whenever there’s a girl, there has to be an Ice Queen, and then you have to ignore her, so she’s sure to come over, sticking her ass out waiting for you.
It’s like they’re insulting our intelligence because we aren’t as smart as them!”
“You sure do have a lot of crooked theories,” Qingluan said, her face still adorned with a faint smile, as if she hadn’t heard the vulgarities in Song Yun’s words.
“Crooked theories are still theories,” Song Yun said with a click of his fingers, “Come on, I have so much to ask you.
Let’s go home and talk.”
Meanwhile, in a presidential suite of a certain hotel in Sunan.
“Son of a bitch!
Bastard!” A man’s voice erupted in anger, followed by a series of smashes.
Wang Kai’s face twisted in fury as he shattered a vase, then, seemingly having vented, he sank onto the sofa, breathing heavily.
“Kai, why waste so much anger on someone as insignificant as Song Yun?” A handsome man in his twenties appeared in front of Wang Kai.
His hair was dyed a light reddish-brown, his frame somewhat slender, and his white leisure suit gave him a very comfortable appearance.
“Murong, you have no idea just how arrogant Song Yun was just now!” Wang Kai said with eyes red, “He blatantly disrespected me in front of so many, making it impossible for me to save face.
All I did was ask him a few questions.
Damn it, he’s so full of himself for being so young!
Too brazen.
Does he really think the Wen Commerce Association wouldn’t dare to touch him?”
The handsome man named Murong sat down next to Wang Kai with a gentle smile on his face and said, “Some people like to succeed young.
You don’t need to take them so seriously.
Those kinds of people won’t last long.
Sooner or later, he’ll take a big fall.
And perhaps just one fall will be enough to keep him down forever.”
Wang Kai’s expression shifted uncertainly.
Originally, his father, Wang Baiwan, was planning to come to Sunan himself, but there was a last-minute issue at the association, so Wang Kai was sent instead.
When Wang Kai learned that Song Yun was also a young man in his twenties, he, being a young talent himself, felt an inexplicable hostility towards Song Yun.
This couldn’t really be blamed on Wang Kai being petty; when a successful young person meets another, they naturally compare themselves.
After comparing himself with Song Yun, Wang Kai found that Song Yun was even more impressive, having become a local big shot at 25, while at 28, he was still only a vice president.
In this respect, Song Yun was more impressive than he was!
Wang Kai was not someone who liked to be outdone or to admit defeat, so when he attended Song Yun’s banquet, he intended to use the opportunity to make Song Yun look bad.
Wang Kai was confident that the questions he had prepared would stump Song Yun and embarrass him in public.
But unexpectedly, when he asked his question, Song Yun simply dismissed it with a few words.
Moreover, he had made Wang Kai lose face in front of so many powerful figures.
This was something that Wang Kai, who prided himself as one of the top three young talents in Shen Zhou, couldn’t tolerate.
Moreover, the presence of Lin Yu at Song Yun’s side made Wang Kai even more envious!
Wang Kai was someone who enjoyed flirting, so he had some knowledge of the various ‘exquisite goods’ the women of Shen Zhou had to offer.
And this Lin Yu, Wang Kai could tell at a glance that her mouth was one in ten thousand, a rare treasure.
So, seeing Lin Yu as Song Yun’s companion, Wang Kai became even more envious, especially since he had never experienced such ‘exquisite goods’ himself.
Here was Song Yun, a fellow young man who brought a companion who possessed such attributes, which filled Wang Kai with jealousy, envy, and hatred!
This irritation had quickly turned into concrete action.
“Don’t rush, Kai,” Murong said with a smile, “Right now, this is Song Yun’s territory, and picking a fight with him here, while he may not actually harm you, would make it very easy for him to embarrass you.
When you go back tomorrow, just tell the chairman about the humiliation you suffered today, and as long as the chairman is willing to stand up for you, what’s a small fry like Song Yun then?
Although it’s said that he’s with the Song Family, he isn’t registered in the Song Family’s household – they might not care much for him at all!
You’ll be able to get your revenge soon!”
“That’s true!” Murong interjected, and Wang Kai’s mood seemed to improve somewhat, “Thank you, Murong!” Wang Kai said sincerely.
“It’s nothing.
It’s what I should do!
Our Zhao Family and your Wang Family have always been good partners,” Murong said with a smile.
“Heh, indeed.
Without your Zhao Family’s support, our Wang Family couldn’t have risen so quickly.
My dad always tells me, ‘The Wang and Zhao families should never be split.’ My dad and your dad have been brothers since childhood, and we should be the same.
As long as we cooperate between the north and the south, what’s a Song Family to us?” Wang Kai said with an arrogant look on his face.
Murong just nodded, saying nothing, but in his heart, he was somewhat contemptuous, “Your dad and my dad are good brothers?
Even though my dad is just a side branch in the Zhao Family, he’s still just a dog to your dad, at most.
Your Wang Family really dares to elevate your status!”
Zhao Murong, an outstanding offspring of the Zhao Family’s side branch in Beijing, his father specifically managed the Zhao Family’s business dealings with local families.
Although Zhao Murong was not as high in status as the main branch, he was still considered a first-rate figure in the Jingjin area!
The scene shifts back to the villa.
Song Yun personally drove Qingluan back to the villa from Yellow Springs.
After a brief exchange of pleasantries with everyone, Qingluan signaled Song Yun to head upstairs, and once they were in Song Yun’s room, her first words made Song Yun break into a sweat.
“Earlier, I heard you talking to White Tiger, and it sounded like you were quite interested in the women of Pudong.
What’s the matter, is Sunan too small for you, and now you’re thinking of expanding your territory?
If Shishi heard you say that, I’m afraid you’d be done for,” Qingluan said with the rare appearance of teasing in her expression.
