I called everyone, and the entire Yun Mansion was basically booked out, but no one dared to say anything.

The people present were arguably the most powerful figures in the entire Qilian Prefecture; even a Martial Saint would have to think twice before facing them.

The person in charge of Tianshan Yunfu was a very elegant lady, dressed in a long, flowing brocade robe.

She wore a fur shawl of unknown material, held a carved wooden folding fan in her hand, and had a bluebird hairpin adorning her hair.

She wore two imperial green gemstone earrings, a large openwork gold bracelet, and a choker, making her look stunning overall.

Everything was prepared before we even arrived, and when we did, she greeted everyone in a very generous manner.

Her overall demeanor exuded a heroic air, and her eyes lit up when she saw the younger sister. She even prepared food for Er Gouzi, showing no one any neglect.

A few of us who were in the lead went into a private room, and the others were assigned rooms according to their status.

I didn't pay any attention and simply instructed the waiter to transfer one million to the Yun family.

With nearly 700 people eating and drinking at a certain level, this amount of money should be enough; we should let them make a little extra profit.

The manager, Helian Shanhan, worked directly in the room as a waitress, running errands for everyone.

Even with five Grandmasters present, it wasn't considered bullying her, and she was also very good at livening up the atmosphere.

This improved everyone's mood considerably, and there were also several uninvited family heads present.

They were all just ordinary powerful families. Due to the special nature of Qilian, none of the families here had grandmasters; the strongest were all government troops.

I didn't kick anyone out; it was just a casual dinner to let everyone get to know each other.

I didn't intend to say anything at the dinner table, so I didn't act too unfriendly. The guests included powerful families such as the Qi family, the Shen family, the Wang family, and the Liu family.

I ignored the other families and just watched the Shen family laugh. The Shen family now knew exactly why we were there, because I hadn't intended to hide it.

I already told others, and Sister Helian even sold the information to the Shen family. The Shen family's patriarch is furious.

They're unreliable in everything they do. Why didn't they just cut the weeds and eliminate the problem completely? Leaving a loose end has only made things worse.

They've come to wipe out the Shen family. When the Shen family patriarch arrived, he pulled strings and pleaded for their lives, spending a fortune in just a short time.

The benefits he promised were countless, and he no longer cared about the future. If he couldn't get past this hurdle now...

And that was the end of it. The Qi family was also implicated, and the things the Shen family had done back then were brought to light.

Everyone said that they had failed in their family management and upbringing, and that their daughters were unfaithful and had affairs with other men, bringing great trouble to their husbands' families.

The Shen family themselves spread the word to force the Qi family to help, and the Qi family was driven to desperation.

They called Qi Xianwan home for questioning, wanting to know what had happened, but Qi Xianwan looked completely bewildered.

She was saved by Wen back then and developed a slight liking for this older brother, but at the time, Wen was nothing special except for being a nice guy.

He had no power, no ability, and no money. Why would the daughter of a wealthy family possibly be interested in him?

But it wouldn't be bad to have a choice, after all, he's a really good person, and we're in that "more than friends, less than lovers" stage.

If we have the chance to get to know each other again in the future, maybe we can develop into secret lovers or something.

But to say that someone would abandon their family and career for Vancouver is a bit of an overstatement.

Actually, Wen Ge didn't mean it that way; the two of them just got along well and were attracted to each other.

But some people are just jealous and hateful.
