Chapter 418 Wen Luoyun began his triumphant speech.

Beside her, Wen Luoyun smiled and said, "Everyone, please don't praise me. Cousin Wan Ge also worked very hard this time. I just had a bit more luck."

“Luck is also part of strength,” Uncle De said to Kong Wange. “Wange, don’t blame me for being blunt, but I believe you can realize this through this incident. Whether it’s talent or ability, you are still far behind Luo Yun. Young people must avoid being arrogant and impetuous. Think twice before you do or speak, or you will only lose face.”

Everyone at the table was shrewd; who couldn't tell that this was a veiled criticism of Kong Wange's bet?

Kong Wange put down her wine glass, smiled, and said meaningfully, "Uncle De is right. I have learned a lot. One should indeed be humble."

When everyone heard Kong Wange say this, they all thought that she had admitted defeat.

Wen Zirou was overjoyed, but on the surface she pretended to be magnanimous and comforted her: "Wange, don't be sad. It's not that you're not good enough, it's just that you met Luo Yun. This child has been smart since she was a child, unlike you who grew up in the countryside. She has always been groomed to be the successor of the Wen family. Plus, she has a strong personality and wants to do everything to the best of her ability. So it's really not your fault that you didn't succeed this time. Don't take it too hard."

Kong Wange slightly curved her lips.

So you're saying that her loss isn't her fault, but only because her daughter is too outstanding?

This is quite a roundabout route, like a winding mountain road.

"Aunt, I understand everything you're saying. I truly admire your whole family!" Kong Wange said with a faint smile.

Wen Zirou was stunned for a moment. It was clearly a compliment, but why did it sound so awkward?

Wen Luoyun, being young, understood the implication in Kong Wange's words and replied with a forced smile, "Cousin, you're still so direct. Although your abilities are a little lacking, your mental fortitude is truly remarkable."

Kong Wange pretended not to understand the sarcasm in her words and smiled calmly, saying, "My cousin is right. You should learn this advice from me; you might need it later."

Wen Luoyun: "?"

What a joke! She's far superior to her in every way. She would never allow herself to be in such a passive and vulnerable position. What is there for her to learn?

Her cousin, on the other hand, was very adept at climbing the social ladder.

She didn't want to say anything more to Kong Wange, but Kong Wange took the initiative to say to her, "Cousin, it's really impressive that you were able to get Old Master Sun to come out of retirement. Since we're just waiting anyway, why don't you go up on stage and say a few words to everyone? Let me learn from you."

"This..." Wen Luoyun hesitated, after all, strictly speaking, Old Master Sun was not someone she had cleared out, but rather someone from that group of men.

"What? We're all family, does my cousin have any secret tricks she wants to keep to herself?" Kong Wange teased, pretending to laugh.

Her voice was neither too loud nor too soft, but just loud enough to reach the ears of everyone present. The crowd immediately cheered, "Yes, Luo Yun, come up on stage and tell us how you got this person here!"

"That's right, Sister Luo Yun, share your experience with us!"

Listening to everyone's chatter, Wen Luoyun remained seated.

Seeing this, Uncle De spoke up: "Luo Yun, don't be shy. If someone else had brought this up, it would have been fine. But since Wan Ge wants to hear it, we should at least say a few words. We can't let others think we're petty, don't you think?"

Wen Luoyun paused for a moment, then stood up with a smile: "Since Uncle De has said so, then I'll just give a brief explanation."

She glanced at Wen Zhengning, and seeing that he didn't seem displeased, she got up and walked onto the wooden platform.

A cheer immediately erupted from the audience.

Wen Luoyun, dressed elegantly and smilingly, tested the microphone and then said, "Everyone asked me to talk about how I managed to invite Elder Sun. Honestly, I don't have much to say, because I didn't use many tricks; I relied on just one word: 'sincerity.' Even if you reject me three thousand times, I still want to see you. As long as you have sincerity and perseverance, your persistence will eventually be seen..."

Wen Luoyun skipped over the process of finding Old Master Sun, and instead gave the crowd a lot of motivational speeches.

Wen Yue pouted at the table and whispered to Kong Wange, "Wange, is Old Master Sun not quite right in the head?"

Kong Wange: "?"

She quickly glanced to the side and saw that everyone's attention was on Wen Luoyun, so she patted Wen Yue with a wry smile and said, "What are you saying? Grandpa Sun is perfectly fine. Be careful not to say anything that might be overheard by someone with ulterior motives."

Wen Yue was a little embarrassed, but still lowered her voice: "I just can't believe that Wen Luoyun can influence Elder Sun by doing this? All those people who went to invite Elder Sun before, didn't they visit him three times and wait at the door? Why is it that she can succeed?"

Kong Wange curled her lips: "Maybe she's attracted to his brainlessness, and he's so delusional that he doesn't even take a bath?"

"ah?"

Kong Wange patted her: "Hehe, you'll understand in a moment. Watch carefully, the show is about to begin."

On stage, Wen Luoyun had already begun to explain the value of the product.

The people from the medicine lineage below were all deeply moved.

After she finished speaking, someone below exclaimed loudly, "Sister Luo Yun, no wonder Old Master Sun was moved by you, you are so outstanding!"

"We should all learn from Sister Luo Yun!"

"Sister Luo Yun, you are the light of our medicine lineage!"

The younger generation of the medicine lineage were incredibly excited, and some of the elders nodded in satisfaction.

The two scattered tables of people getting acupuncture nearby all looked both sour and disdainful.

"He just invited an old Chinese medicine doctor, look how smug he is, is it really necessary?"

"Of course! She even started crying. Isn't that a bit too dramatic?"

"Anyone who didn't know better would think she made the Wen family the richest in the world. Speechless."

The person who performed the acupuncture didn't control their volume when they spoke, and it went straight to the ears of the people at the medicine table, who immediately expressed their dissatisfaction.

"Is that just an ordinary old doctor? That's Sun Ronghai, a grandmaster of traditional Chinese medicine! You make it sound so easy!"

"Sigh, what's the point of talking to them? They're just sour grapes!"

"That's right, if you look down on him so much, why don't you hire an old man like Sun? We've given you chances before, but you didn't live up to our expectations, so who can you blame!"

The two sides argued back and forth, neither willing to give in, and just as the atmosphere was getting heated, suddenly someone in the crowd shouted, "Stop arguing, Old Sun is here!"

That one sentence silenced everyone, and they all turned to look at the main entrance.

A low-profile black sedan slowly came to a stop. The driver got out first, walked around to the other side, opened the car door, and then helped out a sprightly old man.

He was around seventy years old, leaning on a cane, and walked step by step towards the crowd as he crossed the courtyard gate.
