Chapter 257: Chapter 256, Making a Mistake Every Man Makes

The Fang Family and the Su Family had been friends for generations.

However, the Su Family’s influence was far less than that of the Fang Family. For this reason, when the old master of the Su Family was alive, he arranged a marriage for Su Li, hoping it would allow the Su Family to go further by borrowing the Fang Family’s influence.

Over the years, the reason Su Jianjun could rise smoothly in his career was because of this relationship.

That’s where the problem lay.

If not for the Su Family borrowing the Fang Family’s support, this marriage could have been annulled.

But now.

Withdrawing from the marriage would certainly trigger many chain reactions, possibly even ending Su Jianjun’s political career.

On the contrary.

Even if the Su Family withdrew from the marriage, the results would be the same.

People would assume they withdrew because of a conflict, and even if the Fang Family clarified the situation, no one would believe it. After all, some matters are less believable the more they are clarified.

This meant.

No matter what, Su Jianjun’s political path would be stopped.

Therefore, this matter was very difficult to handle.

Elder Fang looked at Fang Cong and said, "You brat, you can go cause some trouble, the kind of trouble every man gets into!"

???

Fang Cong was incredulous.

In the past, whenever I caused trouble, you beat me to death!

But now, why encourage me to make mistakes?

Fang Shuya couldn’t help but say, "Father, do you want Cong’er to make a mistake so that we have a reason to withdraw from the marriage with the Su Family, and have people think we owe the Su Family a favor?"

Elder Fang gave a small nod. "At this point, that’s the only way. Suppose Cong’er is publicly caught having a tryst with another woman outside, that would completely end the marriage."

"After all, that kid from the Su Family is now at quite a high level, and he couldn’t possibly tolerate his daughter-in-law being involved with another woman before marriage."

"However, he couldn’t propose to break off the marriage with us. At this point, we just need to go along with the flow, which not only ends the engagement but also makes us feel sorry for the Su Family."

"Even if the marriage is off, it won’t affect that kid from the Su Family’s future."

Fang Qingguo sighed. "Too complicated!"

"This isn’t too complicated, you’re just brainless," Elder Fang snorted unkindly. "This is also why I wanted you two brothers in business instead of politics. With your limited intelligence, who knows when you’d get fooled in a political career!"

Fang Qingguo and Fang Qing’an were speechless.

They got the feeling the old man was scolding them, but while they were unhappy, they didn’t know how to retort.

Fang Cong chuckled gleefully. "Grandpa, you can’t blame my dad and uncle for this, because their intelligence is inherited from you... Ow, don’t kick my butt..."

As soon as Xu Wendong left the villa area, a car blocked their way. Liu Chunyang then stepped out and asked the driver, "May I ask if Friend Xu is in the car?"

Xu Wendong opened the car door and stepped out, asking politely, "What’s the matter, Old Liu? Surely you haven’t been waiting here for me this whole time?"

Xu Wendong had indeed heard of Liu Chunyang, a titan within the provincial traditional Chinese medicine community. Not only was he a leading figure in traditional Chinese medicine, but he was also the vice president of the provincial medical university.

When Xu Wendong entered university, he had the chance to meet him once.

At that time, he gave a lengthy welcome speech on the podium.

Liu Chunyang smiled awkwardly. "I didn’t expect you to stay so long at the Fang Family’s place!"

"Here’s the thing, I’m not sure where you’re currently working, but would you be interested in becoming an honorary lecturer at our university?"

"Honestly, I truly, truly admire the Mysterious Gate Ghost Hand and hope you can teach this Tui Na Technique to the students at our school."

"I know this idea is quite selfish, but it is indeed the best way to promote traditional Chinese medicine!"

"Please forgive my boldness, Friend Xu."

Xu Wendong replied, "Sure!"

"Ah?" Liu Chunyang was stunned.

Xu Wendong smiled and said, "I mean I agreed to your previous proposal, and I am willing to be an honorary lecturer and share the Mysterious Gate Ghost Hand with more people!"

Xu Wendong understood Liu Chunyang quite well. Not only was he highly skilled in medicine, but he also had a great reputation. Importantly, he had always had a dream to promote traditional Chinese medicine.

Faced with such a request, Xu Wendong couldn’t find a reason to refuse.

Even though the Mysterious Gate Ghost Hand was hard to learn, he believed someone would be able to grasp it.

He saw it as a contribution to the field of traditional Chinese medicine!

Liu Chunyang’s eyes immediately welled up. He shook Xu Wendong’s hand excitedly. "Thank you, thank you for being willing to pass on the Mysterious Gate Ghost Hand to more people. On behalf of the medical students and everyone, I thank you!"

"So, when will you be available to come to the school and teach the students?"

He was somewhat impatient. Even though the Mysterious Gate Ghost Hand was difficult to learn, as long as Xu Wendong was willing to share this valuable Tui Na Technique, it counted as a form of legacy.

Xu Wendong looked a bit troubled and said, "Old Liu, I still have some personal matters to deal with today. Let’s do this: I’ll find time to come over tomorrow morning."

Saying this, Xu Wendong couldn’t help but marvel at the wonders of fate.

Three months ago, he was still a student in the traditional Chinese medicine department at the provincial medical university.

And now.

He had suddenly become an honorary lecturer.

It was quite amusing.

He wondered how his former classmates would react when they saw him.

After saying goodbye to Liu Chunyang, Xu Wendong had the Fang Family’s driver take him to the antique market, as he needed to make a visit to Pawnshop Number Eight.

Although he wasn’t sure whether this trip would be fortunate or ominous,

he wouldn’t go back on his promise to Elder Qin.

Number Three Club.

Cao Jinbo was smoking a cigar, frowning, as he looked at a subordinate. "You say Xu Wendong went to the Fang Family’s place? And stayed there for several hours, then the Fang Family sent a car to drive him off?"

"Yes, according to the brother monitoring Xu Wendong, he seemed to have had lunch with the Fang Family and drank quite a bit, and everyone in the Fang Family showed him great respect."

Cao Jinbo’s brows furrowed. Xu Wendong’s visit to the Fang Family was unexpected; he hadn’t anticipated that Xu Wendong would be able to forge a connection with them.

Though the Fang Family had no political figures, their influence in the business world was evident, especially with the presence of Elder Fang, making them an undeniable force in the entire provincial capital. Who dared to challenge them?

Yet.

Thinking of the Wanlong Association’s backing, he still felt Xu Wendong couldn’t defeat them.

"Continue monitoring Xu Wendong’s every move."

------

When Xu Wendong arrived at the antique market, it was already three in the afternoon.

Although he had previously drunk quite a bit, with the dilution from the True Qi, he had now regained his clarity.

Although his eyes couldn’t completely adapt to seeing things yet.

"That Gu Worm can’t currently affect me. Perhaps when I become stronger, I can destroy it." Xu Wendong pushed the matter of the Gu Worm to the back of his mind, then walked into Pawnshop Number Eight.

At that moment, a young woman in her twenties, wearing a black dress, uttered a lazy voice from within the shop. "Hello, are you here to pawn something or redeem something?"

"Neither pawning nor redeeming," Xu Wendong said. "I’m here to find someone."

The girl looked impatient. "If you’re looking for someone, turn right at the door, go straight through three intersections, and there’s a police station at the corner. You can search there."

"Have a nice day, we won’t see you out, thanks!"

Xu Wendong showed the obsidian ring on his thumb and smiled slightly. "Do you recognize this ring?"
