Old Qin had already stepped up to the microphone, ready to speak. He Chungwai was vigilantly watching his surroundings, prepared for any unforeseen events.
Suddenly, He Chungwai's expression changed drastically as a silver needle flew towards Old Qin's neck. The needle was small and fast, invisible to the average person. Without a doubt, it would pierce Old Qin's neck, leading to his demise.
At such a distance, He Chungwai realized he was too late to swat the needle away. A wave of despair washed over him.
Then, a miracle happened! The silver needle veered off course just two centimeters from Old Qin's neck and flew away, embedding itself in the backdrop of the stage.
That was close; it must have been Jiang Jun who intervened! Indeed, Jiang Jun was watching him and gestured for him to remain calm. He Chungwai initially wanted to rush out and catch the assailant. However, without knowing who the attacker was, he had no choice but to stay seated as Jiang Jun indicated.
A group of reporters arrived on the scene. One reporter stomped her foot in frustration; she was Lin Yin from Ningzhou Business News.
Hmph, it seems I need to have a word with her! Jiang Jun shot a glance at Lin Yin.
The others did not notice anything unusual, and the conference continued as Old Qin began his speech.
The event quickly concluded, and employees gathered in the company cafeteria for a celebratory feast while guests were arranged to drink at the Chamber of Commerce Grand Hotel.
He Chungwai suggested that Old Qin skip the event. Old Qin understood there was a reason behind this suggestion and complied.
Jiang Jun also understood the reasoning and expressed his understanding of Old Qin's departure.
After the banquet, Jiang Jun found Lin Yin.
"Lin Yin, what happened today?" Jiang Jun remained polite with her.
"What do you mean what happened?" Lin Yin feigned ignorance.
"Don't play dumb with me! I don't care what grievances you have with the Azure Feather Sect and the Qin family! How could you act out during my Dongsheng Group's inauguration? If you have the guts, do it somewhere else!"
"Ah, you know I'm from the Azure Feather Sect? In other places, that bodyguard of his is always by his side; how could we make a move? Finally, I had this opportunity, and you meddled like a dog catching mice! Last time we sent someone after his granddaughter, you stopped that too. You really don't know right from wrong!"
Jiang Jun found it amusing. "You think I don't recognize the mark on your wrist? You want to kill someone but end up playing the good guy? Today, Old Qin is my guest; of course, I have to ensure his safety!"
"Anyway, we're trying to kill a bad person! Do you have anything else to discuss with me?"
"I want to learn how to drive; could you help me find a driving school?"
"Hmph, who do you think I am? You want me to help you find a driving school? Can't you drive?"
"I can drive but don't have a license! I'm your lifesaver; isn't this request reasonable?"
"Pfft, lifesaver! Two petty thieves needed your help… Fine, follow me!"
Lin Yin led Jiang Jun to a driving school marked East Wind Driving School.
Jiang Jun quickly signed up, "Lin Yin, how about I treat you to dinner?"
The beautiful woman seemed to be angry at herself, but she was actually quite forgiving.
"Sure, it's always a good thing when someone treats!"
The Chamber of Commerce Grand Hotel is owned by Old Qin, so he couldn't take her there. The two found a regular restaurant nearby.
Without private rooms, they decided to eat in the main hall.
"That beauty is so stunning!" As Jiang Jun and Lin Yin just sat down, someone at a nearby table pointed at Lin Yin and commented.
"Brother Dao, no matter how beautiful she is, she’s not for you. Don't you see she has a boyfriend?"
"What kind of eyes do you have? That ordinary young guy could be her boyfriend? Today's beauties are very realistic; they wouldn't lower their standards like that!"
"You don't know? Sister-brother relationships are in vogue now! When facing a pretty boy, beauties don’t care if the guy has money!"
Sister-brother relationship? Lin Yin couldn't help but feel a stir in her heart. But this person across from her probably had no clue about that!
"Get lost! You all think you know so much! Watch me go get that beauty's phone number; I'll pursue her from now on!"
Ugh, Lin Yin felt nauseated hearing this, while Jiang Jun sneered.
"Go ahead, Brother Dao! If you manage to win over this beauty, I bet you'd be willing to carry her shoes every day!" The other young men at the table egged on the one called Brother Dao.
Brother Dao stood up and walked over with a glass in hand toward Jiang Jun and Lin Yin's table.
"Beauty, can I get your phone number..." Brother Dao said as he tried to sit down.
"Get lost!" Jiang Jun interrupted him with a sharp shout before he could finish.
"Hey, the beauty hasn't said anything; who do you think you are... Ouch!" Brother Dao's hand was suddenly twisted, and then he was forcefully pushed down to the ground.
Huh? The other four companions at the table didn't understand what was happening; their Brother Dao was already groaning in pain on the floor!
Brother Dao got beaten? This won't do! The four young men took advantage of their numbers and rushed over.
Thud! They all fell to the ground without exception, groaning alongside Brother Dao.
The other diners were stunned!
Wow, how did that guy do it?
"What’s going on?" The restaurant owner rushed over.
"It's fine, they just accidentally fell!" Jiang Jun said lightly.
Lin Yin grinned, and the two sat there as if nothing had happened. The restaurant owner called an ambulance, and soon five injured people were taken away. No one dared to disturb Jiang Jun and Lin Yin anymore.
"Why did you invite me to dinner today? Are you feeling guilty about something?"
"Not at all! Today is a new beginning for me. I’ve established a group company and want to build my own business empire, so I wanted someone to share it with!"
"On a day like this, you should share it with your girlfriend!"
"I don’t have a girlfriend, so I’m inviting you!"
"Then I wish you a brand new start!" Lin Yin couldn't help but feel happy. Could it be that Jiang Jun really wanted her to be his girlfriend?
"Cheers!" The two clinked their glasses.
After dinner, Jiang Jun went straight back to Huafei Villa. He chose to buy Huafei Villa for an important purpose: to enhance his future cultivation. The environment here is beautiful, quiet, and sparsely populated. If Jiang Jun continued his cultivation, it would be an ideal place. But now was not the right time; he would wait a while before proceeding.
Five days passed, and Jiang Jun returned to East Wind Driving School, handed his learning card to Coach Zhu, whom he met for the first time, and successfully passed the exam.
Just as Jiang Jun returned to Huafei Villa, his phone rang. It was Zhu Yong.
"Director Jiang, some customers are maliciously delaying our payments. What should we do?"
"Which customers? What’s their reason for the delay?"
"The main one is Tianfa Trade Services Company. Their reason is that they owe the Wan's Group, not Dongsheng Group!"
