Chapter 3: The Yunfan Family
Wang Cheng is determined to keep the matter of his layoff a secret from his family.
Erzi, what is the matter with you? This is General Yang
Yang Yun is not a pious person
Is it just a matter of having a little money
"Yunfan Family? I know, it's that company that always attracts deposits and pays interest... By the way, General Manager Yang, what is your company's main business? What do you do with all that money? With such high interest rates, what kind of business is so profitable?"
It appears that the two individuals have not yet clarified their relationship.
Yang Yun had not yet become angry, but Wang Jun was already filled with rage, his eyebrows standing upright in fury
Sister-in-law ... ...
If that is the case, then our old Wang family truly does not welcome such people
Well, the weather is hot, and my mother is not in good health; she needs someone to take care of her
Moreover, in the twenty-first century, wealthy individuals have gradually come to understand the importance of being discreet and low-key, no longer displaying such ostentation
Wang provided a simple explanation for a sentence
Two sons
In order to extricate his sister-in-law from the vortex, the old man nearly exhausted his "remaining influence," incurring numerous favors and swiftly disappearing from the highest echelons of power in Tian Nan Province.
Not coming to celebrate the old gentleman's birthday is truly not due to a feud between the two; Wang Cheng is actually a person who values propriety. While he may have a conflict with the old gentleman, he strictly adheres to the rules expected of a son.
Wang Wei's father has a total of four siblings, and Wang Cheng is the second among them
However, considering that the 1990s was indeed the peak period for the first group of people who became wealthy, the influence of many big bosses truly overshadowed that of the high-ranking leaders
Wang Wei's voice was loud, without the slightest hint of restraint, shouting so that all the guests in the room could hear, and all the guests simultaneously furrowed their brows
Wang Jun originally thought that by mentioning the prestigious name of "Yunfan Family," Wang would at least show respect, even if he did not bow in submission, and express a sense of reverence akin to gazing up at a towering mountain. To his surprise, Wang remained so irreverent, subtly implying an intention to press Yang Yun for answers.
Why, hasn't your father come again
Rural women, lacking knowledge and experience, what do they understand about the methods of educating their children
Wang Gang asked with a stern expression
Wang Jun was thoroughly enraged, his face darkened as he let out a furious shout
Wang Jun's lips curled slightly, her face filled with an expression of indifference.
Wang Wei was also aware that his sister-in-law held prejudices against his family, so he did not say much more
Do not underestimate this young man; his gaze is piercing, as if he has been a seasoned veteran for many years
Fortunately, Wang Wei has already graduated and will soon be able to start working and receive a salary; otherwise, even his living expenses during university would have become a problem
Wang Wei had never met Yang Yun before. In Wang Wei's memory, the first time he met Yang Yun was at the old gentleman's birthday banquet, where Wang Jun seemed to publicly announce her close relationship with Yang Yun. This was also the only time Wang Wei saw Yang Yun in person; afterward, he only saw his photograph in case reports.
Wang Gang's gaze fell upon Wang Wei, who was wearing a short-sleeved yellow shirt issued by the police academy, stained with sweat, and his hair was somewhat disheveled, which immediately evoked a sense of displeasure in others
What is there to show off!
Wang Jun's tone became increasingly displeased
What is going on
He is a person who values his pride so much
Wang, showing no fear whatsoever, continued to speak with a playful smile.
The rural woman is still so precious
Therefore, during these years of studying in Cloud City, he has represented the old gentleman on his birthday.
Officer Wang, a billionaire businessman, has seen many people, yet he has never encountered anyone as imposing as this. Each one of them is very amiable and understands how to conduct themselves.
However, Wang Wei clearly did not realize that he was quite unpopular. He still wore a nonchalant smile on his face and was indifferent to his aunt's accusations, saying: "Aunt, I haven't been rude to him, have I? I was just asking what business he is in. Is it that Mr. Yang's business is something that cannot be mentioned, that we can't even ask?"
The key issue is the lack of money
Yang Yun chuckled heartily, puffed out his chest and belly, and walked towards the gate of Villa No. 7
Wang Jun's brows furrowed even tighter
This is simply outrageous
Wang Gang is serious and rigid, and like Wang Jun, he does not like this carefree nephew at all
The 1990s was a time when businessmen enjoyed the height of their glory and prestige, standing shoulder to shoulder with many high-ranking leaders. Wang, as a retired old man, had long been considered outdated in the eyes of General Manager Yang, who was worth billions.
Mr. Yang is busy
Yang Yun and Wang Jun stood still at the same time, turned their heads, and wore expressions of astonishment on their faces
I truly do not understand how my second brother was attracted to her in the first place, as she is not particularly beautiful
Where did this young punk come from, daring to look at Boss Yang like that
In Wang Jun's view, Wang's behavior is all due to that uneducated country sister-in-law's indulgence.
What is this General Manager Yang? In this day and age, there are many who self-proclaim themselves as general managers
This is the gaze of a police officer observing a criminal
In this compound, Yang Yun has visited more than one of the prominent figures in power, and has even been a guest at the table of one or two of them, frequently coming and going.
In the eyes of others, at this moment, Yang Yun is a billionaire, lofty and radiant, surrounded by an aura of brilliance. However, in Wang Wei's view, this old fellow is not a good person and is about to face a downfall.
This car belongs to Yang Yun, yet Wang Jun has just stepped down from the driver's seat, indicating the close relationship between the two.
As for Wang Wei's identity, General Yang truly did not pay much attention to it
To speak frankly, ever since the Yunfan family rose to prominence in Yundu City, very few have dared to be so audacious in front of General Yang. Today, it is in this large courtyard, without any bodyguards by his side; otherwise, this ignorant young man would have long been dealt with.
Wang Jun, who had just gotten out of the driver's seat, spoke up, his brows slightly furrowed and his tone displeased
This guy, I usually don't see him like this. Every time he comes to the house, he quietly eats and drinks, doesn't say much, knows how to be low-key. What has he taken today to act like this?
As for the claim that Wang Wei's mother is unwell and needs someone to take care of her, it is merely an excuse
Wang swayed his body as he approached the two, sizing up Yang Yun with a rather disrespectful gaze
I have never had a good impression of this nephew, General Manager Wang. Just look at his swaggering, cynical demeanor; he hardly seems fit to be a police officer. Not to mention, he is the grandson of the renowned "Wang Laohu".
Perhaps sensing the hostility in Wang Wei's gaze, Yang Yun shot him an annoyed glare
Wang Wei came to his senses and smiled broadly at Wang Jun
In Wang Wei's memory, this Yang Yun indeed came close to becoming his uncle by marriage, but later the fundraising case suddenly erupted, which disrupted everything. His aunt Wang Jun and the entire old Wang family were implicated in the Yang Yun case, putting them in a very passive position
Wang Jun's furious shout immediately drew the attention of those inside the room, and a large group of people rushed out. Leading the way was a middle-aged man, appearing to be in his forties or fifties, who was Wang Wei's uncle, Wang Gang. Beside him was a woman a few years younger, who was Wang Wei's aunt, Wang Li.
Both spouses are unemployed and rely on running a breakfast stall to make a living
From the border city to Cloud City, the journey spans over two hundred to nearly three hundred kilometers. There are no trains available, so one can only travel by bus. The round-trip travel expenses are not a small sum.
This is indeed No. 1 Courtyard
If it were in his own futures company, Wang Jun would have someone throw this guy out
Regardless of the circumstances, the Lao Wang family can be considered a "prestigious family" in Tian Nan Province, and the old gentleman's former status as the top figure in Tian Nan's political and legal circles is not a fabrication
Apart from Wang Cheng, who is quite stubborn, the three siblings Wang Gang, Wang Li, and Wang Jun are all employed in the province, have good jobs, and lead respectable lives
Brother, you have arrived just in time
Fortunately, Wang Jun had little interest in the matters concerning Er Ge's family, and immediately turned to Yang Yun, instantly becoming radiant and, with a graceful wave of the hand, said: "General Manager Yang, please go ahead!"
He works in a government department and holds a certain leadership position. Usually, he is the eldest among his younger siblings and commands considerable respect. Today is the old man's birthday, and many guests have already arrived at the house, all of whom are individuals of status and standing. However, to his dismay, there are people arguing at the doorstep.
Moreover, this money has an illegitimate source
In terms of appearance, Wang Jun is not unattractive and possesses a certain degree of beauty; however, the lines of her face are somewhat too rigid. This is related to genetics, as well as family environment and personal identity
You, what is going on with you? General Manager Yang of the Yunfan family, do you understand now?
In Wang Jun's eyes, the entire family of the second brother is peculiar, especially the second brother himself, whose stubborn temperament has led him to engage in a standoff with the old man for twenty years. Even now, he remains in that remote border town, working as a small laborer in a collective unit. Wang Jun feels embarrassed to even mention that he has such a brother.
I originally planned to take this opportunity today to disclose my relationship with Yang Yun to my parents and family, but who would have thought that such a situation would occur, completely ruining my good mood
Wang Jun's face turned pale with anger, her full chest heaving rapidly, filled with rage that she did not know how to vent.
Wang Wei, what do you want to do
Yang Yun is tall and slightly plump, in his forties or fifties. Standing there, he exudes an imposing presence, with a self-assured demeanor typical of an authoritative figure. At first glance, he resembles a high-ranking official more than a business tycoon
Wang Wei was well aware that Yang Yun's good days were coming to an end. It would not be long before the fundraising case broke out, and as the principal offender of the fundraising case, Yang Yun would instantly plummet from the pinnacle of the wealth pyramid into the abyss.
Wang suddenly called out.
Upon seeing this impressive demeanor, Wang felt uncomfortable in his heart
Yang Yun's face had already fallen, coldly staring at Wang Wei, remaining silent.
Look at your nephew, who seems to have lost his mind, daring to be so disrespectful to General Yang!
In fact, he does have some opinions about his father's stubborn temperament, but even when it has come to the point of being laid off, he refuses to utter a word to his father. If those guys at the street office knew that the taciturn Wang Cheng was actually the son of Secretary Wang, they would surely arrange another job for him
This young man must have been spoiled, being so unaware of the situation.
And wait!
Aunt, who is this person? Could you please introduce them...
Of course, this is also related to Wang Wei's status; he is a seasoned criminal investigator with a certain reputation in the border town's police community, earning him a measure of respect from others, which naturally differs from the attitude towards an ordinary passerby
Wang Jun was furious
If it were not for Wang Jun's sake, Yang Yun would not have come to celebrate the birthday of a retired old man
