Chapter 782 You two are evenly matched

It was this one glance that made the master decide to take Jun Wuduan away from this cannibalistic place.

This was the first time Ye Wanxi had heard about her third senior brother's past. The rumors she had heard before were mostly simplified versions, and many details didn't match up.

Naturally, this was not as infuriating to Ye Wanxi as learning the full truth now.

"These heartless bastards, what kind of skill is it to bully a child?" Ye Wanxi said thoughtfully after a while, "These people who secretly bullied Third Senior Brother must be those palace concubines, right? Could it be that Third Senior Brother... "

No, that's not it.

"no?"

"The third son went back once when he was twelve years old."

"Third Senior Brother went back? Then he..."

“He went back for his mother’s ashes, but it terrified those who had tormented the third son.”

People who thought they were long dead suddenly appeared in front of them, not only coming back to life, but also becoming a disciple of a celestial master who even the emperor had to treat with deference. How could they not be terrified?

"They were worried that the change in the third son's identity would threaten their status, and they were even more worried that the third son would seek revenge for old grievances, so they listened to the advice of those around them and made a foolish move."

Ye Wanxi frowned: "What a foolish move?"

"These fools must have heard from someone that cultivators should be pure of heart and free from worldly desires, and should not easily be tempted by mortal desires. Especially young people who have not yet achieved immortality, if they are tempted by mortal desires too early, they will deplete their vital energy and easily destroy their foundation. If it gets worse, they may be unable to embark on the path of immortality."

Ye Wanxi was a little embarrassed. This kind of rumor sounded unreliable, but...

"They believed it?"

"Of course he believed it, otherwise he wouldn't have deliberately drugged the third brother and sent him three women."

"Three!" Luckily, Ye Wanxi wasn't drinking water, or she would have choked. "Third Senior Brother was only... he looked like a child back then! It's too much! It's really too much. These people are worse than pigs and dogs."

Feng Tianyu sighed and reminded him, "People who want to harm you don't care how old you are."

"That third senior brother wouldn't..."

"We discovered it early, and nothing happened, but..." It's just that we were indeed tricked, but fortunately it didn't escalate to an uncontrollable point.

Ye Wanxi could easily understand Feng Tianyu's implied meaning. Her face darkened, and she became even angrier.

"After this incident, the third brother was left with psychological trauma and became extremely averse to or even disgusted by contact with women."

"Then what about him and Senior Sister Qi Yao..."

"Life is full of unexpected events, and your senior sister Qi Yao is one of the unexpected events of the third brother."

Speaking of this, Feng Tianyu felt a bit gloating.

The third son, who was clever all his life, never expected to suffer such a big setback in matters of the heart.

They develop feelings without realizing it, just like kindergarten kids who, if they like someone, will tease them and try to get their attention.

As a result, he went too far, and by the time he realized his own feelings, the other person was already avoiding him like the plague. Even his confession was seen as another prank.

"This guy is really... incredibly stupid, he deserves to never catch up to him in his lifetime."

Feng Tianyu's merciless criticism left Ye Wanxi somewhat speechless.

Do you have the right to laugh at others when you can't even get to the point of pursuing someone and I have to offer myself up all the time?

They're practically the same kind of useless trash, aren't they?

Ye Wanxi's lips twitched slightly, and she uttered a sentence in a low voice: "Senior Brother, don't be so smug. Who knows, the tables might turn one day?"

Feng Tianyu: "?!" Did he say something wrong? Why did he receive such a shocking curse?

"Third Senior Brother did go a bit too far, but his actions were somewhat understandable. Should we... help him?"

"Let's forget about it."

Ye Wanxi looked puzzled: "Why?"

"They are the only ones who know best about their relationship. We are outsiders and shouldn't interfere. If we mean well but end up making things worse and turning them into a bitter couple, that would be bad."

Ye Wanxi frowned and pondered for a moment, then had to admit that her senior brother's concerns were not without merit.

"Then we can only rely on our third senior brother himself."

"Where there's a will, there's a way. Don't worry, the third brother is very shrewd. Since he let us come back first that day, he must have his own plans. We don't need to worry about it."

Thanks to Jun Wuduan's usually reliable image, Ye Wanxi finally accepted Feng Tianyu's explanation and nodded, saying, "I hope so."

Unaware that he had missed a golden opportunity to take a shortcut, Jun Wuduan was busy discussing future cooperation matters with the eldest son of the Qi family.

Just as they were about to sign the contract, Jun Wuduan suddenly felt a tickle on his nose and couldn't help but sneeze.

The moment the sneeze came, the atmosphere in the room froze, and both sides looked at Jun Wuduan in surprise.

Jun Wuduan remained calm, took the tissue, wiped his nose, and said apologetically, "I used to live in City A, and I'm not very used to the climate in City Z. I apologize for making you laugh, Mr. Qi."

Upon hearing this, Qi Yingzhang hurriedly said with concern, "The climates of City A and City Z are indeed very different. It's understandable that you might experience some discomfort due to the change in environment since this is your first time here, Mr. Jun. But once our two companies start cooperating, you'll get used to it after a few more visits."

"That makes sense. If there are no other issues, let's sign the contract."

"Okay, sign the contract."

Both sides have reached a consensus on most of the issues, and the signing went very smoothly.

After signing the contract, the two stood up, shook hands, and wished each other a pleasant cooperation in the future.

Qi Yingzhang then belatedly remembered something: "President Jun just said that you used to live in City A. If I remember correctly, Tianyu's family is in City A."

"Yes. I've known Brother Feng for a long time, and Wanxi and I are even from the same school and have a brother-sister relationship. That's one of the reasons why we chose City A as the location."

Qi Yingzhang then remembered that Jun Wuduan seemed to have sat at the same table as Ye Wanxi at the wedding banquet that day. He was so busy greeting guests that he had overlooked this.

Looking back now, I suddenly realize that's how it all happened.

"I didn't expect that Mr. Jun and Tianyu and the others were old acquaintances. No wonder you sat at the same table that day. It was my oversight."

Upon learning of Jun Wuduan's illicit relationship with Feng Tianyu and others, Qi Yingzhang felt a closer connection to Jun Wuduan: "Tianyu has few friends, but those he approves of must be quite good. Speaking of which, my sister..."

"What's wrong, Miss Qi?"

“On the day of the wedding, my sister met Tianyu and Miss Ye and got along very well with them, especially Miss Ye. These days she has been talking about wanting to go to City A to find Miss Ye.”

When Qi Yingzhang spoke of his younger sister, a smile appeared in his eyes: "My sister's situation is special. She has almost never traveled far from home, and her family is worried about her traveling alone as a girl. But she rarely makes a request to me, and I can't bear to refuse. It's just that I've been busy with business collaborations lately and haven't had time to take her out."
