(This book is not about a saintly protagonist.) Shen Lang, who was fired by his company, unexpectedly obtained the 'Myriad Items Trading System' and has since begun to explore countless wor...
"Young Master, where are we going next?" Dongxue asked, sitting in the driver's seat of the Sun God.
"Let's go check on Bingyan," Shen Lang replied.
"Yes, young master."
…………
At this moment, a Hongqi car with license plate SA.00001 was parked in front of Villa No. 1 on Qingyun Mountain.
The person who stepped out of the passenger seat was Sun Minghui, who had just been promoted to Chief of Police of S Province.
After getting out of the car, Sun Minghui personally opened the back door and helped a middle-aged man out.
"Who are you?" Shuang'er asked, standing in front of the door with an unfriendly expression.
"Young lady, could you please announce that Wang Lianrong is visiting?" the middle-aged man said kindly.
"What? Wang Lianrong? You're the second son of the Wang family?" Shuang'er asked in surprise upon hearing the middle-aged man's name.
"Shuang'er, don't be rude." Yu Xian'er walked out of the villa quickly, scolded Shuang'er, and then greeted the middle-aged man, "Uncle Wang Er."
"Xian'er!" Wang Lianrong replied with a smile, "The old master misses you very much and asked me to ask you when you will go home to visit."
Yu Xian'er smiled and said, "Second Uncle Wang, Xian'er is now a member of the Shen family. When I can go back depends on my young master."
"Hiss!" Wang Lianrong gasped inwardly, a look of shock flashing in his eyes.
Who is Yu Xian'er? She is the apple of the eye of the Yu family, one of the three major families in the capital. She is the precious daughter of the Yu family patriarch, who has cherished her since she was a child.
Moreover, Yu Xian'er's wisdom was almost supernatural, and before leaving the capital, she completely overwhelmed all the noble young men in the capital.
Now he's actually willing to play a supporting role to Shen Lang.
This made him even more curious about what kind of phoenix tree Shen Lang was, that it could attract Yu Xian'er, this phoenix, to descend.
Then Yu Xian'er said to Shuang'er, "Tell the young master that we have a distinguished guest visiting our home."
"Uncle Wang, please." Then, Yu Xian'er, adopting the demeanor of a hostess, invited Wang Lianrong and Sun Minghui inside.
"Yes, Miss." Shuang'er, looking aggrieved, took out her phone watch and dialed Dongxue's number.
Just then, Shen Lang and his companion arrived at the Canglang Group building. Before they could even get out of the car, Dong Xue received a call from Shuang'er.
"Xiaoxue, where are you?" Shuang'er asked.
"What's wrong with us here at Bingyan's?" Dongxue asked.
"You and the young master might have to come back; we have a distinguished guest at home," Shuang'er said with displeasure.
Who is it?
"Wang Lao Er, Wang Lianrong."
"Okay, I understand."
After hanging up the phone, Dongxue relayed the message to Shen Lang.
Shen Lang scratched his head helplessly: "Let's go back."
On the way, Dongxue told Shen Lang about Wang Lianrong's background.
The capital city has three top-tier families: the Yu family, which has a tradition of martial arts; the Wang family, a political powerhouse; and the Ye family, a family of generals.
Wang Lianrong was the highest-ranking official in S Province, dispatched by the central government. He was the second master of the Wang family and was considered the most promising successor to the old master.
What Shen Lang couldn't understand was why Wang Lianrong had come back to find him.
Although he played a part in Lu Weidong's downfall, he never showed his face and ultimately connected with Sun Minghui through Xia Bingyan.
And why would an official of Wang Lianrong's rank, a regional governor, condescend to visit me at Qingyun Mountain?
Even if I am a person with extraordinary abilities, it is not enough to warrant a second-rank official dispatched by the imperial court to come and see me.
Upon returning to Villa No. 1, Yu Xian'er greeted him with a bowl of lotus seed tea she had personally brewed: "Young Master, you're back."
"Hmm." Shen Lang took the tea and nodded, then asked, "Xian'er, where is Wang Lianrong?"
Yu Xian'er said, "I've asked Shi Ya and Chun Yu to receive them in the living room on the fifth floor."
"Alright, I'll go up and take a look." After finishing his tea, Shen Lang handed the teacup to Shuang'er, who was standing beside him with a look of displeasure and delight.
Seeing her gloomy face, Shen Lang asked curiously, "What's wrong with this little girl today?"
Yu Xian'er covered her mouth and smiled at Shuang'er's expression, saying, "Back then, the Wang family wanted to form a marriage alliance with the Yu family, but I refused. So they wanted Shuang'er to marry into the Wang family in place of Miss Yu. It was Wang Lianrong who proposed this. That's why Shuang'er reacted so strongly."
"Oh, I didn't expect you to have a childhood betrothal?" Shen Lang looked at Shuang'er, who was puffing up her cheeks, and pinched her chubby face, teasing her.
"Hmph, I didn't. That idiot from the Wang family wants to marry me? Dream on." Shuang'er rarely gave a coquettish snort in front of Shen Lang, and walked towards the kitchen with a teacup on her face, looking unhappy.
Shen Lang wasn't angry; he just found it amusing and asked, "So, what was the final result?"
冬雪在旁边笑道:“双儿姐把王连荣的大儿子王青山在小学门口堵着揍了一个月,王青山被打的害怕了,回家后哭喊着要退婚,迫不得已王连荣只能打消了和虞家联姻的想法。”
Shen Lang watched Shuang'er wrestling with the dishes in the kitchen and asked, puzzled, "What does the Wang family want from her? Is it because she's short? Or because she has smelly feet?"
Yu Xian'er covered her mouth and smiled, without saying a word.
The two then went up the stairs to the fifth-floor reception room.
After the two left, Shuang'er looked at Shen Lang's back and showed her two little tiger teeth fiercely, muttering under her breath, "You stinky young master, you're the one with smelly feet."
Upon arriving at the reception room, Wang Lianrong and Sun Minghui were sitting in the guest seats, enjoying pre-rain Longjing tea and chatting happily.
Upon seeing the beautiful couple Shen Lang and Yu Xian'er, Sun Minghui immediately stood up and introduced them to Wang Lianrong with a smile: "Boss, this is Young Master Shen, Shen Lang."
Wang Lianrong also stood up, carefully examining the handsome young man with long hair before him, and couldn't help but exclaim, "What a dashing young man!"
Shen Lang stepped forward, extended his right hand, and greeted him with a smile that was neither humble nor arrogant: "Why didn't you give me a heads-up before your arrival, Chief Wang? I could have been prepared."
Wang Lianrong extended his right hand and shook hands with Shen Lang, laughing heartily, "Today, I, Wang, am just here as an uncle to see what kind of husband Xian'er has chosen."
After saying that, he continued to praise, "As expected of the young man favored by the eldest princess of the Yu family, Young Master Shen is indeed a handsome and dignified young man! Compared to you, my two rascals are simply not worthy of mention."
Wang Lianrong's words were half true and half false.
After acquiring the system, Shen Lang underwent a tremendous change in both mindset and temperament. He remained completely unmoved even when facing the most powerful figures in S Province.
However, Wang Lianrong's second statement seemed somewhat hypocritical. His eldest son, Wang Qingshan, and second son, Wang Qingyun, were also among the top young noblemen in Beijing.
He was able to say these words entirely because of Shen Lang's recent actions. He also learned through Sun Minghui that the person who truly brought down Lü Weidong from S Province was not himself, but the enigmatic young man before him.
