"Cousin, let me introduce you to our family's brothers and sisters."
Ouyang Liqun interrupted Wan Yunting and Ouyang Xiuxian, and began to introduce him to all the young brothers and sisters of the Ouyang family, whether from the Ouyang family's main branch or relatives. All the young people were present. Under Ouyang Liqun's enthusiastic introduction, Wan Yunting firmly remembered their names and relationships.
Ouyang Liqun picked up his wine glass and smiled, "Cousin has just returned and isn't very familiar with us yet. After this drink, we'll all be one family. Family brothers should look out for each other and help each other."
Wan Yunting, also holding a wine glass, nodded and then toasted with all the brothers and sisters of the Ouyang family, becoming a member of this big family.
"Oh, and cousin, that's Liqun's girlfriend. She was just saying they are getting married."
Ouyang Xinyuan pointed to Ji Ruxue, who was holding Ouyang Liqun's arm and walking beside him, charming and captivating. Wan Yunting's expression faltered, and his gaze lingered on this woman with an evil aura, feeling an indescribable strange sensation.
"Then congratulations are in order."
Wan Yunting smiled at Ouyang Liqun and Ji Ruxue, holding his wine glass.
"Cousin is too polite."
Ouyang Liqun and Ji Ruxue clinked their wine glasses with his...
Especially Ji Ruxue's strange, pale green, foxy eyes. The more she looked at Wan Yunting, the more interested she became.
Taking a sip of wine, Wan Yunting immediately said, "Liqun, can I have a word with you alone?"
Ouyang Liqun seemed to have expected Wan Yunting to seek him out for a chat. He nodded and said with a gentle smile, "Sure, let's go over there."
"Please."
Wan Yunting nodded, then gestured to Ji Ruxue, and took Ouyang Liqun to the balcony outside to talk privately.
Ji Ruxue's foxy eyes narrowed slightly, but she was quickly surrounded by socialites who came to ask her for advice on skin care...
"Do you smoke?"
Wan Yunting took out a pack of cigarettes for a little over ten yuan, took out a cigarette, and handed it over. Ouyang Liqun smiled and waved his hand, "I don't smoke. Cousin, please, go ahead."
Wan Yunting shrugged, put the cigarette in his mouth, and lit it slowly with his lighter. He then took a comfortable drag and exhaled the smoke slowly. Ouyang Liqun, leaning against the railing, leisurely swirled the wine in his glass, his gaze fixed on Wan Yunting, and smiled, "Cousin, was your trip to Wudang Mountain smooth?"
Wan Yunting paused his smoking action, met Ouyang Liqun's gaze for three seconds, and said with a smile, "It was smooth enough. I didn't die on the Sword Cliff of Wudang Mountain!"
Ouyang Liqun's face showed a slight look of surprise, and he said, "Cousin, what do you mean by that? Did you encounter any danger?"
"You don't know?"
Wan Yunting suddenly looked at him. Ouyang Liqun feigned ignorance, "Cousin, you're joking. How would I know!"
"That can't be right?"
Wan Yunting narrowed his eyes, stared into Ouyang Liqun's eyes, and smiled, "Tan Zhiyuan told me everything!"
As soon as he said this, Ouyang Liqun's heart skipped a beat!
Ouyang Liqun later felt that it was too impulsive of him to ask Tan Zhiyuan to hire martial arts experts to assassinate Wan Yunting, as there were too many flaws that would have led Wan Yunting to discover him.
Especially after Wan Yunting's trip to the Wudang sect, when he learned that the martial arts masters hired by Tan Zhiyuan to assassinate Wan Yunting had failed again, Ouyang Liqun realized at that moment that this matter might be exposed!
Because Ouyang Liqun didn't know if Tan Zhiyuan would reveal him. Now, seeing Wan Yunting's playful look and smile, he knew that Tan Zhiyuan had probably sold him out!
Wan Yunting looked at Ouyang Liqun's silence with a playful smile and narrowed eyes. In fact, he just wanted to provoke him!
"Heh heh."
Ouyang Liqun chuckled, took another sip of red wine, then looked directly at Wan Yunting and smiled, "Cousin, do you always have a problem with me?"
Seeing him change the subject, Wan Yunting snorted coldly in his heart, knowing that Ouyang Liqun was indeed the true mastermind behind the "Qun Long Drug Trafficking Group"!
"Liqun, you're mistaken."
Wan Yunting continued to smoke, and said with a smile, "I personally have no problem with you. I just feel that what you've done is not worth it!"
"Oh."
Ouyang Liqun looked at him with interest and smiled, "Cousin, please enlighten me."
Wan Yunting waved his hand and said, "Although I am not a police officer and do not represent so-called justice, I am a physician. My fundamental purpose is to serve the general public. Because good deeds are rewarded and evil deeds are punished, Heaven is fair. Everyone who does good or evil has a balance of karma. If you lose balance between the two, retribution will eventually find you!"
Ouyang Liqun nodded and smiled at these words, saying, "Cousin is indeed a people's anti-drug police officer. The principles you speak of are indeed pleasant to hear. So, does that mean you represent justice to punish the wicked?"
Wan Yunting chuckled and shook his head, saying, "It seems you still haven't understood what I'm saying."
"Perhaps I am too ignorant."
Ouyang Liqun turned and faced the street outside, looking at the bustling night scene. Below were pedestrians and streets, people coming and going, their faces showing various expressions – some joyful, some weary, telling the joys and sorrows of the city's common people.
"I don't understand profound principles, but I only understand that in this life, everyone is experiencing being human for the first time. The path one chooses in the future depends entirely on oneself, not on someone standing on the moral high ground to accuse another person of being wrong!" Ouyang Liqun's expression was very calm. He turned his head to glance sideways at Wan Yunting, who was leaning on the railing with both hands, and smiled, "Is this what you call justice?"
"That's sophistry!"
Wan Yunting didn't look at him, his gaze fell on the hurried pedestrians in the street below, and said, "What you say is true, no one can stand on the moral high ground to accuse someone, but this world has order!"
As he spoke, Wan Yunting turned his head, his gaze meeting Ouyang Liqun's, and his tone suddenly became sharp, saying, "If everyone were like you, then there would be no order in this world, only chaos."
"Mencius said, 'Without norms, one cannot make circles and squares!'"
"Heh heh."
Ouyang Liqun smiled, withdrew his gaze, and looked into the distance, saying, "Then you still represent justice to accuse me!"
"It's no longer important."
Wan Yunting threw the extinguished cigarette butt on the ground, crushed it with the tip of his shoe, and then turned to him and said, "As your cousin, I still advise you to surrender yourself to the authorities!"
"Heh heh, how ridiculous..."
Immediately, Ouyang Liqun's calm smile disappeared, replaced by a sinister look. His turned gaze was even colder, and he said to Wan Yunting, "Cousin, you are still too naive!"
Facing his sinister smile and contemptuous gaze, Wan Yunting's brows furrowed slightly, and his heart grew heavy.
Yes, even if he knew that Ouyang Liqun was the mastermind behind the "Qun Long Drug Trafficking Group," what of it? He and the police had no evidence at all. How could they arrest Ouyang Liqun?
"Liqun, what are you two talking about?"
Just as Wan Yunting and Ouyang Liqun were confronting each other, Ji Ruxue, wearing a wine-red evening gown, charming and captivating, walked in. Her alluring figure and those strange, pale green, foxy eyes narrowed as she stared at Wan Yunting. Her fiery red lips revealed a sinister smile. She held two glasses of wine in her hands and said with a smile, "Cousin, would you like to have a drink with me?"
Wan Yunting, withdrawing his gaze, looked at Ji Ruxue, who was handing him a glass of wine. Her evil aura kept him on guard, but he still reached out to take the wine she offered and said with a smile, "Liqun, do your grandparents know about your wedding?"
Ouyang Liqun resumed his calm smile and said, "I haven't told them yet."
"Cousin..."
The next moment, Ji Ruxue suddenly pressed herself tightly against Wan Yunting. His expression changed, and he quickly spread his hands, turning his head to glare at Ouyang Liqun. Ouyang Liqun showed no discomfort at Ji Ruxue's actions and instead looked at Wan Yunting with a meaningful smile.
"Cousin, am I beautiful?"
Her proud chest pressed against Wan Yunting's sturdy chest. Her fair jade hand with long red nails hooked Wan Yunting's chin, forcing him to look directly into her eyes. The next second, Ji Ruxue's strange pale green pupils contracted!
Wan Yunting, staring into her eyes, suddenly felt his whole body shake. He felt as if a green vortex suddenly appeared before him, making the world spin, as if it were about to suck his consciousness into it...
Seeing his eyes gradually become vacant, Ji Ruxue's fiery red lips revealed a proud cold sneer. No man had ever been able to escape her sorcery!
But the next second, Ji Ruxue's expression changed drastically. Her eyes widened, and suddenly a huge, dark green snake head shot out from Wan Yunting's vacant eyes, letting out a hiss at her...
Ji Ruxue was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she stumbled back a few steps. Ouyang Liqun, seeing this, was also shocked and rushed forward to catch Ji Ruxue, preventing her from falling...
"Hmm?"
Wan Yunting, who instantly came back to his senses, felt a slight soreness in his eyes. He rubbed them vigorously with his hands until they felt more comfortable. Looking up, he saw Ji Ruxue with wide, disbelieving, and incredulous eyes staring at him in horror. Inwardly, she cried out in shock: "Divine Snake, he is the incarnation of a Divine Snake...!"
"Ruxue, are you alright?"
Ouyang Liqun, holding her, felt Ji Ruxue's trembling body and her pale, terrified face. He didn't know what had happened.
Even Wan Yunting didn't know what was going on. He only felt that when he looked into Ji Ruxue's strange, pale green eyes, the world spun, and he briefly lost consciousness, and then he didn't know what happened.
"Cousin, what's wrong?"
At this moment, Ouyang Xiuxian walked over. He had seen Ji Ruxue suddenly lean into Wan Yunting's arms earlier and knew something was wrong. But now, seeing Ji Ruxue's face full of fear and panic, while Wan Yunting was unharmed, made Ouyang Xiuxian confused, not knowing what had happened between them.
"Liqun, I'm not feeling well. Help me back..."
Ji Ruxue, having recovered slightly, dared not look into Wan Yunting's eyes again. Her body trembled, and her breathing was rapid. Ouyang Liqun supported her, "Okay, let's go..."
Wan Yunting raised his eyebrows but did not stop them to ask for clarification. However, looking at Ji Ruxue, he knew that this woman was not simple and was very dangerous!
