"Hey, Hu Yuan, you know you're in trouble?"
Looking at Hu Yuan's relaxed and composed expression, Murong Wan couldn't help but voice her concerns.
"Trouble? What trouble? You mean that guy from earlier?" Hu Yuan chuckled lightly, completely unconcerned.
"You can still laugh knowing that? Do you even know how powerful that guy's family is..."
Murong Wan was really worried about Hu Yuan. She was afraid that Hu Yuan would not know how powerful the other party was and act rashly.
Hu Yuan waved his hand casually and said, "Since it has already happened, isn't it too late for me to worry now? Besides, with you by my side, why would I need to worry?"
Seeing Hu Yuan looking at her with a smile, Murong Wan couldn't help but laugh as well.
"Should I say you're bold, or that you're like a fox?" Murong Wan asked playfully.
"This is my clever wisdom based on thorough analysis. As long as I stick close to you, Miss Murong, what is there for me to fear?" Hu Yuan said with a hearty laugh.
"Oh? So you know who I am?" Murong Wan's words were full of cunning.
Hu Yuan stopped hiding it and nodded, saying, "At first I wasn't sure either, but considering your demeanor and what you know, it's easy to figure it out. If I'm not mistaken, that high-ranking official in Pujiang is a relative of your father's generation, right?"
When he first got on the ship, Hu Yuan didn't realize who Murong Wan was.
However, when the bank appeared, after learning about the other party's job and position, Hu Yuan quickly guessed the other party's identity.
It's worth noting that even in Pujiang, the surname Murong is still quite rare.
More importantly, in later generations, Hu Yuan did indeed hear of Murong Wan's great name, and her father was the high-ranking official in Pujiang.
He never imagined that he would one day meet the child of this high-ranking leader.
You know, in a few years, that big leader will be moving to Beijing and taking up a central government post, becoming one of the most powerful figures in the country…
This Miss Murong was involved in several subsequent financial crises.
Hu Yuan heard these things from a friend who worked in finance in later years, because he seemed to know this Miss Murong and had personally experienced some of the later events...
Murong Wan smiled and nodded, "You're quite clever to have thought of that; you do have some insight!"
"Then you still haven't said what your relationship is with that big leader?" Hu Yuan continued.
"Does it matter?" Murong Wan blinked her big eyes and asked in return.
Seeing the other person's expression, Hu Yuan laughed out loud, "Indeed, it's not important!"
For them, some things are best left unsaid; there's no need to be so blunt about anything deeper.
"By the way, what's the deal with Yan Kai?" Hu Yuan asked curiously.
Upon hearing the name, Murong Wan shook her head. "It's so annoying to even mention him. That guy is like a leech."
"I think given your status, you shouldn't have such worries, right? This guy looks quite glamorous, but he's not as high-ranking as you, is he?" Hu Yuan asked, looking puzzled.
Murong Wan rolled her eyes. "Do you think everyone is like you, able to guess who I am right away? My family has repeatedly told me to keep a low profile in my actions and conduct, and not to use my family's status to make statements. Otherwise, do you think this guy can interfere with me?"
"Then why did he act like he knew you very well, and even said that you were old friends?"
"Family friends? Do you think that's possible?" Murong Wan shook her head with a light laugh. Although she didn't say it directly, Hu Yuan could tell that there was still a hint of disdain in her words.
"One of Yan Kai's uncles is the vice president of our bank, and I came here through a connection I had made. After that, this guy became like a leech, impossible to get rid of. I don't know where he found out about me, but we became what he calls family friends..."
Murong Wan's words were full of helplessness, but her status didn't require her to do much.
If Yan Kai knew her true situation, he would probably be scared to death, let alone have any ulterior motives.
"Hey, but seriously, if you didn't know my situation, what would you do if he really came looking for trouble with you?" Murong Wan looked at Hu Yuan with curiosity, wanting to know what he was thinking.
"What else can we do but run away!"
After saying this, Hu Yuan and Murong Wan both burst into laughter.
Hu Yuan and Murong Wan were enjoying their meal at the Pujiang Hotel.
Outside the Pujiang Hotel, in an inconspicuous alley, Yan Kai was standing with several thugs dressed in a shady manner.
"Brother Kai, this is the Pujiang Hotel. No matter how bold we are, we wouldn't dare to make a move inside!" Hei Zi said to Yan Kai with a worried look after looking at the brightly lit entrance of the Pujiang Hotel.
"Hey Hei Zi, are you stupid? When did I say you could go in and make your move? I just said those two were eating inside, and you could make your move when they came out..." Yan Kai glared at the other man and said.
"That's good, that's good. As long as we don't go in and make a move, it's fine." Kuroko's face relaxed, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Look at you, how are you going to follow me and do big things in the future?" Yan Kai said with a disdainful look.
"Yes, yes, yes, Brother Kai, you're right. We'll need your help in the future. The brothers are all counting on you!" Hei Zi said with a fawning smile, looking every bit the lackey. His underlings echoed his sentiments.
After Murong Wan and Hu Yuan left, Yan Kai, who was furious, couldn't hold back his anger and followed them all the way to the Pujiang Hotel.
Hei Zi and his group were people Yan Kai had found halfway through his journey. They were all low-class individuals, but Yan Kai had no choice but to bring them in if he wanted to teach Hu Yuan a lesson.
"Brother Kai, look, aren't they coming out?"
Just as the group finished speaking, one of the henchmen suddenly pointed to the opposite side and said...
Yan Kai and Hei Zi turned around and saw Murong Wan and Hu Yuan standing at the door.
Narrowing his eyes, Yan Kai said fiercely, "It's those two. Come with me and charge over there in a bit. We're going to teach that guy a lesson and let him know that in Pujiang, outsiders are nothing but dog shit!"
"Brother Kai, where's that woman?"
Suddenly, one of the henchmen behind him spoke up and asked.
Snap!
With a sharp crack, Hei Zi's hand landed squarely on his head. "Are you stupid? That's Kai's woman! We'll snatch her back for Kai later and make him happy..."
Snap!
Another crisp sound.
Yan Kai slapped Hei Zi on the back of the head. "What are you doing, fighting over things? Do you think you're some kind of mountain king? Be civilized, don't you understand?!"
"Yes, yes, civilization, civilization..."
