Return of the King, Dominating the City-Chapter 1371 - 1356: Schemes from All Sides

"Song Yun doesn’t seem like that kind of person, and it seems like he has a girlfriend."

"A wife isn’t as good as a mistress, and a mistress isn’t as good as a secret affair. Which man doesn’t want to cheat? Have you seen any man who doesn’t? Anyway, his girlfriend at most is just a classmate from university. Song Yun is infatuated with me, so it’s understandable... It’s just that I’ve told him many times, I’m not that kind of person, but he keeps pestering me, and I’m really helpless! He insists that I deliver breakfast to him every day, saying if I don’t, he’ll force me... So I have to bring him breakfast every morning."

"Is he really like that?" Wenxi asked.

"Yes, he’s really shameless! He just asked me out again, but I can’t be bothered with him... He can force me to buy him breakfast, but he can’t force me to meet him, otherwise I’ll call the police!" Rumeng said.

"Song Yun is indeed very flirtatious and lustful; there’s no doubt about it!" Wenxi recalled the information he had gathered about Song Yun, a significant part of which described Song Yun’s flirtatious and lustful nature, listing how many women Song Yun had and their details, all of which Wenxi had.

So, Wenxi somewhat believed what Rumeng said, though not entirely.

"Yes, Wenxi, I promise I won’t deliver breakfast to him anymore, and I won’t reply to any of his text messages!" Rumeng said seriously, "Even if he comes to beat me, I won’t have any contact with him!"

"No worries."

Wenxi smiled and said, "It’s just Song Yun. If he bothers you again, let me know, I’ll teach him a lesson for you."

"No need, Wenxi, I’ve heard Song Yun is very powerful; there’s no need to offend him over me..." Rumeng said.

"If I can’t even protect my own woman, am I still a man?" Wenxi laughed, "If he pesters you again, tell me!"

"This... okay..."

Rumeng nodded. Then she went upstairs, while Wenxi turned and left the girls’ dormitory.

After Wenxi left, Rumeng took out her phone, found the name Song Yun in her contact list, and called it.

"I’ll explain in a text message. Remember to threaten me when the time comes, got it?" Rumeng said.

"Got it!"

The man stored in Rumeng’s phone as Song Yun replied in a low voice.

That voice wasn’t Song Yun’s at all.

And that Song Yun wasn’t Song Yun himself.

After hanging up, Rumeng called Xuan Yuanyi and informed Xuan Yuanyi of the progress of the matter.

"Remember to act according to plan."

Xuan Yuanyi said.

"Yes, understood, but, Yuanyi, the sacrifice this time is huge, remember to compensate me!" Rumeng said coyly.

"No problem, after this is over, I’ll take you to the Maldives for vacation!" Xuan Yuanyi said casually.

"Yuanyi, I knew you’re the best!" Rumeng said joyfully.

"Yes, yes, keep working hard, strive to turn Song Yun and Shi Wenxi into sworn enemies!" Xuan Yuanyi finished and hung up the phone.

While plotting against Song Yun, on the other side.

Beijing.

"Wangquan, the centennial celebration of Danfu University is coming up. Should we prepare something?"

Zhou Guang, who had somehow returned to Beijing, earnestly asked Zhao Wangquan.

"Whatever, attending the celebration this time is just a cover. It’s said that their school’s Professor Tao’s research is nearing completion, and while the research between our two families has made some progress, it’s not significant; we only developed super-grade agents. The family has decided to change direction. If we can recruit Professor Tao into our family, then any significant research breakthrough he makes in the future will certainly be ours. Even if we can’t recruit Professor Tao, we have to stop others from getting him. The top directive is that nothing should happen to Old Tao!"

Zhao Wangquan said seriously.

"Yes, understood, but I heard from the president of Danfu University that Professor Tao’s research is in the final stages. If everything goes smoothly, he will release his newest research findings during the celebration. If there are really any research breakthroughs, we’ll have to fight for them, right?" Zhou Guang asked.

"That’s natural; many people will attend just for that research breakthrough. We must obtain it! We’ll even have new allies by then!"

Zhao Wangquan said seriously.

"Got it, got it!" Zhou Guang said with a smile, "The Song Family hasn’t caught wind of anything yet, they probably don’t know about Old Tao. As long as they don’t get involved, our two families can easily win this!"

Meanwhile.

Song Yun received a call from his father in the Song Family.

"What? Dad, we’re getting involved too?" Song Yun asked in surprise.

"Yes, Old Tao’s research is very important. If I can get some of his research data, I might be able to make some improvements to the current system of biological pharmaceutics. In some aspects, biology and chemistry are interconnected!"

Song Er said over the phone.

"Doesn’t Yinyin have his research data? Wouldn’t it be easier for mom to get it from her?" Song Yun asked.

"Yinyin only handles part of Professor Tao’s research. Most of the data, Professor Tao keeps to himself, and we don’t know where it’s hidden. Even if we did, it wouldn’t matter, we’re interested in the final research results, not a bunch of calculations. Son, if possible, it’s best for you to bring Professor Tao over to our side!"

Song Er said.

"What if I can’t bring him over?" Song Yun asked.

"If you can’t, then protect him for me!" Song Er said, "After all, he’s a national talent, we can’t let certain people harm him, that would be a great loss to the scientific community!"

"Protect him?" Song Yun furrowed his brow and said, "Dad, that might be a bit challenging!"

"Of course, it’s challenging. Would I ask you to do it if it weren’t?" Song Er said, then lowered his voice, "Son, let me tell you, your Second Grandpa’s health is getting worse."

"Huh? What’s going on?"

Song Yun asked.

"It’s just old age..."

Song Er said, "No matter how influential one is, they can’t resist time. Your Second Grandpa’s health is deteriorating, and now Song Meiqin’s branch is still watching intently. We have to achieve more to stabilize our footing within the family, do you understand what I mean?"

"I understand..."

Song Yun nodded and said, "I’ll find a time to visit Second Grandpa."

"You should take the chance to come back for a visit, but this task was personally assigned by your Second Grandpa. It’s also to have our main branch contribute more to the family so that if the day comes when your old man rises in rank, there will be less resistance from those below. Although I’ve been trying hard to win people’s support within the family, I still can’t match the connections Song Kunlun has built over more than a decade. Right now, more people in the family still support Song Kunlun than me! However, if that Yinguai can bring back what we want this time, and we then reveal those things at the right time, Song Kunlun will definitely be expelled from the Song Family entirely. Without the identity of a Song Family member, Song Kunlun would just be a mere bandit."

Song Er snorted coldly and said.
