Chapter 258 - 258 Your Life Is Up to Me
Many people still knew about this matter. However, they didn’t dare to talk about it casually. Many high-ranking officials and nobles fell silent for a moment. A repressive atmosphere spread in the entire circle of high-ranking officials and nobles in Jiangnan.
Meanwhile, Chen Yun was happy to be free. He looked for Lin Wan’er a few times.
That afternoon, Chen Yun was eating with his brothers when Lin Wan’er suddenly looked for him.
This shocked Zou Runbei and the others. They quickly stood up. “Sister-in-law… Miss Lin, hello.”
“Hello, Miss Lin.”
“Miss Lin.”
Lin Wan’er was also shocked by this scene. From their behavior, it was as if she was the sister-in-law of these people. It was simply too terrifying. At that moment, she looked at these people with honest smiles on their faces. They looked harmless and she immediately relaxed.
“Chen Yun, are these your friends?” Lin Wan’er looked at Chen Yun.
“Yes, they’re my brothers. Come, Wan’er, let me introduce them to you. There’s no need to mention Yuhan. This is Zou Runbei, also known as Xiao Bei, and this is…” Chen Yun introduced them one by one. Lin Wan’er nodded at everyone.
After the introduction, Lin Yuhan looked at Lin Wan’er. “Wan’er, long time no see. You’ve become prettier. Why don’t you sit down and chat?”
“Alright, it’s been a long time.” Lin Wan’er sat down generously and chatted with everyone. Not long after, she got along with everyone. Everyone also realized that this sister-in-law was quite approachable, while Brother Yun was close to everyone.
“Wan’er, what’s the matter today?” Chen Yun asked.
“Chen Yun, Sister Fei asked us to have tea at the Purple Bamboo Tea Garden. She specially instructed me to bring you along. If you have anything to do…”
As she spoke, she looked at Chen Yun in confusion.
The girl naturally knew how high Sha Fei’s standards were. In the vast Jiangnan province, only a handful of people under the age of 30 could enter Sha Fei’s eyes. As the representative of the Sha family, Sha Fei was so powerful that she was even above many high-ranking officials and rich people. Lin Wan’er was very puzzled that she suddenly chose to invite Chen Yun.
Why did her little friend suddenly catch Sha Fei’s eye?
“Alright.” Chen Yun naturally had no objections.
After the two of them left, Zou Runbei slapped his thigh. “Brother Yun is too awesome. Sister-in-law is much more beautiful than in the photos.”
“Shall we continue eating, Brother Lin?” Everyone looked at Lin Yuhan, only to see that his and Zou Runbei’s expressions were gloomy. They recalled what Lin Wan’er had said just now. Sha Fei had specially asked Chen Yun to go over. There was probably something fishy going on. The two of them happened to share the same view and shared their thoughts with everyone. Everyone’s expressions turned to the side as they hurriedly stood up. Their weapons were in the trunk, so there was naturally no need to prepare anything.
…
Sitting on Lin Wan’er’s red Mercedes-Benz, the two of them quickly arrived at the Purple Bamboo Tea Garden.
It was still filled with green bricks, green tiles, a vermillion door, and vines all over the wall. However, today, the Purple Bamboo Tea Garden looked exceptionally quiet, as if there was no one around. Chen Yun frowned slightly, but he still stepped in.
At this moment, Song Jiakang, Zhang Qin, and the others were already there. When they saw Chen Yun, they even revealed a hint of surprise. They did not expect Chen Yun to have the chance to step into the Purple Bamboo Tea Garden. Did this mean that Chen Yun was about to integrate into their small circle?
Only Lei Kun’s expression did not change. He was still drinking the supreme-grade Da Hong Pao.
“Mr. Chen is here.” Sha Fei stood up elegantly. Her every move was feminine. “Wan’er, you guys chat first. I’ll talk to Mr. Chen for a while.”
With that, Sha Fei made an inviting gesture and left gracefully. Chen Yun was not surprised and followed closely behind.
After the two of them left, the elegant room immediately exploded.
“Sister Sha actually called that kid out alone. What’s his background?”
“That’s right. This is the first time I’ve seen Sister Sha so serious as if she was treating a big shot.”
“Lin Wan’er, it seems like your childhood sweetheart has hidden himself very well.”
Zhang Qin and the others clicked their tongues in wonder. Lin Wan’er’s eyes were also filled with confusion. Wasn’t Chen Yun an ordinary person from Yanwei County? Why did Sister Fei look so cautious?
Lei Kun was still drinking his tea, but a glint flashed across his eyes.
The two of them left the elegant room and went to the backyard of the Purple Bamboo Tea Garden. The backyard was modeled after the water town of Jiangnan. There were waterside pavilions, Nine-turn bridges, ponds, and rockery everywhere. It was as if they had arrived at a famous garden in Wuzhou.
Sha Fei did not say anything and only accompanied Chen Yun as he walked slowly.
She was wearing a green cheongsam today with slits that reached her waist. With every step she took, her fair thighs were vaguely revealed. She wore a jade bracelet that was made of pure jade on her fair wrist. Her black hair was tied up with a wooden hairpin, making her look like a young lady from a wealthy family in the Republic of China era. There was a hint of charm in her seriousness.
“Mr. Chen, should I call you Chen Yun or Director Chen?”
Sha Fei suddenly stood still and looked at Chen Yun with her beautiful eyes.
“You can call me anything.” Chen Yun was not flustered at all that his identity had been exposed. He said calmly, “Who told you?”
“The Sha family is powerful and domineering in Jiangnan. Moreover, Director Chen crossed the river like a dragon. The waves you created were not small. The Sha family naturally knew about it. However, I didn’t expect Director Chen to be so powerful in Jiangnan. Just the shares of those corporations alone, hehe.” A glint flashed across Sha Fei’s eyes.
“Director Chen, why did you come to Jiangnan this time?”
“I’m here to look for Wan’er.” Chen Yun smiled, his eyes calm.
“Hehe, I’m also curious. Since you came to look for her, why didn’t you tell her your identity?” The woman in the cheongsam chuckled. “With Director Chen’s status, which girl in Jiangbei can reject your pursuit? I’m afraid even I would be tempted.”
As Sha Fei spoke, her beautiful eyes flickered, revealing a hint of seductiveness. Chen Yun believed that as long as she curled her pinky, countless people would climb into her bed.
“Hehe.” Chen Yun smiled faintly and did not answer.
How could someone like Sha Fei, who fought for power and was unscrupulous for power, know about his relationship with Lin Wan’er? If he purely relied on his status to suppress others, he would have many women. He hoped that this relationship would be purer and not be mixed with other utilities.
At this moment, an old man with white hair walked over quickly and spoke respectfully to Sha Fei.
“Sister Sha, everything has been arranged.”
Sha Fei nodded slightly, and the old man obediently retreated behind Sha Fei. Even though the old man looked extraordinary and was a big shot who had been in charge of killing for a long time, he was as respectful as a servant in front of Sha Fei.
“Mr. Chen, do you know that your life is in my hands now?”
Sha Fei smiled faintly. There was no longer any seductiveness in her eyes, only coldness. At this moment, she seemed to be the queen who controlled the underground world of Jiangnan province.
“Oh?” The corners of Chen Yun’s mouth curled into a cold smile. “I don’t know about that, and I don’t believe it either.”
