"You're Wan Haoyu's son, right? If so, then I haven't come to the wrong place!" Jiang Jun spoke without a hint of politeness.
Damn, this guy has no respect for my dad! No wonder Dad arranged to deal with him...
"Oh, yes. Please, come in!" Master Wan surprisingly didn’t mind Jiang Jun’s rudeness.
Jiang Jun walked in. The private room was already filled with food and drinks; Master Wan was indeed quite courteous!
"Director Jiang! Let me toast you first. I didn't expect it to be you! My dad only mentioned that he was dealing with the chairman of two clothing companies, a very impressive figure. You're so young; I never would have guessed."
"Master Wan is being too polite. My little assets can't compare to the Wan family. In your father's eyes, it's probably just a drop in the bucket. I'm just stepping into the role of chairman for these two companies. I actually wanted to talk to your dad today, but it seems he wasn't at the company. From what you say, it sounds like your father values me quite a bit!"
"Of course! With your youth and achievements, how could my dad not value you? Come on, let's finish this first drink!"
The two clinked their glasses together, and Jiang Jun prepared to down his drink entirely.
Wait! As soon as the first sip hit his stomach, Jiang Jun realized something was off. Damn it, there’s something in this drink! A cold smile crept across Jiang Jun's face; they want to play this game with me? Most people wouldn't even notice the taste of the drug, but Jiang Jun could feel it.
What should he do? If he drank it all, he would be fine. But Jiang Jun didn’t want to finish it all. How could he hog such good liquor? He should return the favor!
"Hold on, Master Wan, let’s only drink half of this one! I still want to eat some food; my stomach can't handle a full glass on an empty stomach!"
Master Wan was secretly pleased. Aren't you tough? After this drink, you won't see tomorrow's sun; let's see how you fight then!
But Jiang Jun stopped halfway through. What a buzzkill! Did he figure something out? No way! Besides, he had already drunk half of it.
"Director Jiang, isn't it a bit inappropriate to only drink half of the first glass?" Master Wan hoped desperately that Jiang Jun would finish the drink.
"What’s inappropriate about it?" Jiang Jun set down the remaining half of his drink; he knew Master Wan was still wary of him.
Sure enough, Master Wan didn’t dare to push further. First, because Jiang Jun was strong and couldn’t be forced; second, he feared raising suspicion. Reluctantly, he also drank half a glass.
"Let’s eat! Let’s eat!" Master Wan enthusiastically urged Jiang Jun to dig into the food. Since he couldn't drink on an empty stomach, fine—let's eat well and quickly finish that remaining half glass.
"Alright, alright!" Jiang Jun also took on an Hungry Wolf persona and began eating vigorously as if that half glass of liquor had really upset his stomach.
Suddenly, Jiang Jun paused mid-motion with his chopsticks raised, staring intently behind Master Wan.
"What’s wrong?" Master Wan asked curiously as he turned around to see what was happening but found nothing amiss.
In that fleeting moment, however, Jiang Jun had already switched their glasses.
As Master Wan turned back around, he noticed that Jiang Jun had already put food in his mouth and started eating again.
"Director Jiang, did you see something unusual behind me just now?"
"No, I misread it. I thought there was a fly buzzing around the back of your head!"
"Oh, it must be your eyes playing tricks on you. There aren't any flies flying around at this time. Come on, Director Jiang, you've had several dishes already; you should finish that half glass of wine!"
"Alright, cheers!"
Seeing Jiang Jun down the remaining half glass of wine, Master Wan finally felt relieved. He had completed the task his father assigned him today and also vented some of his past frustrations.
The two chatted and ate, the atmosphere very harmonious.
Half an hour later, Master Wan suddenly started yawning repeatedly and began to slur his words. Then his mouth and eyes became crooked, and he could only utter incoherent sounds of "ah, ah."
Jiang Jun sneered and walked out of the private room, leaving the hotel.
When the waiter entered the room, he was startled and quickly called for an ambulance.
"What? My son had a stroke?" Upon receiving the call from the hospital, Wan Haoyu clearly found it hard to believe. His son was usually in good health and so young; how could he have a stroke?
Wan Haoyu rushed to the hospital in a hurry.
"Doctor, what happened?"
"Master Wan, it's indeed surprising that your son had a stroke at such a young age. Fortunately, the hotel called for an ambulance in time; otherwise, your son might not have made it. Right now, he only has the aftereffects of half-body paralysis."
Seeing his son lying in bed with a crooked mouth and eyes, Wan Haoyu felt a pang of despair as his son tried to speak but could only let out muffled sounds.
Half-body paralysis? Wouldn't that mean his son's life was ruined?
"Doctor, can this be treated? Just tell me how much it costs!"
The doctor shook his head and said, "It's not about money; it's simply untreatable. A stroke results from a blockage in the brain's blood vessels leading to a series of symptoms. The related neuronal cells have already been damaged. And damage to neuronal cells is irreversible. So this condition cannot be cured. Only if the blood vessels are cleared immediately when they start to block can we prevent neuronal cell damage. Master Wan, paralysis is already considered fortunate; if the vessels were completely blocked, your son would be dead."
Damn! How could this happen? Could it be that Jiang Jun did something to his son?
In the hospital, there were no reports of anyone dying from heart disease; could it be that Jiang Jun was unharmed? Wan Haoyu took out his phone and called Jiang Jun.
The call connected quickly, and Wan Haoyu's last hope shattered.
"Director Jiang, you were drinking with my son tonight. Now my son is lying in the hospital; where are you right now? What happened to my son? Did you do something to him?"
"Master Wan, I'm just getting ready for bed! Your son is in the hospital? Don't you know what's wrong with him? I didn't harm your son. I just had a few drinks with him and left right after!"
This guy really was fine! It was clear now that it was his son who took that pill himself that led to this situation. He originally intended to use such underhanded means to eliminate Jiang Jun but ended up harming his own son instead.
How could his son drink on his own? Jiang Jun seemed unaffected; it appeared he hadn't consumed any drugged wine after all.
The son took the medicine, and it's not just paralysis! He should be dead instead.
It's very strange! Ever since Jiang Jun suddenly debuted, a series of unbelievable events have occurred.
Jiang Jun is a disaster and must be eliminated! But how to eliminate him? I've tried three times already, and none were successful. This time, he even put my son in this state!
Wan Haoyu pondered. It seems I need to change my approach and tackle it from another angle! Now that my son is like this, let's get my younger brother out first!
Wan Haoyu spent a fortune to have his younger brother Wan Haozhou released from confinement early. The first thing Wan Haozhou did upon coming out was, of course, to seek revenge on Gao Tianqi.
