Chapter 137: Imaginative Genius
"Next, your master will have a proper meeting with him,"
"Don't worry, I will certainly take care of him and make him kneel before you to apologize."
Upon hearing Lü Xing's words, Mr. Lu's face immediately showed a glimmer of hope.
He wanted revenge.
As long as he could get his revenge, he would be content in his heart.
...
At this moment, Wang Ye was unaware that Mr. Lu was still alive, and moreover, his master, Lü Xing, was planning to deal with Wang Ye soon.
Or rather, to Wang Ye, Mr. Lu was just a small fry.
There was no need for him to pay attention to what happened to a small fry.
After leaving the bar, Wang Ye and Su Wanqing directly checked into the best hotel in Xi County and booked two rooms.
Of course, Wang Ye and Su Wanqing slept separately.
Despite being the best hotel in Xi County, it wasn't really that impressive.
Thump thump thump.
Not long after Wang Ye returned to his room, someone knocked on the door from outside.
It was Tan Long.
Ten minutes earlier, Tan Long had asked for Wang Ye's location, intending to find him.
When Wang Ye opened the door, Tan Long walked in, but his gaze toward Wang Ye was vastly different from before.
"Master Wang."
The same three words, but now the way Tan Long uttered them, compared to before, was like day and night, showing the utmost respect for Wang Ye.
The events that unfolded in the bar today made Tan Long realize that he did not truly know Wang Ye's real identity.
All he saw was just the tip of the iceberg; in reality, Wang Ye was far more powerful than what he, or Fang Cunshan, had imagined.
Added to this was the matter Wang Ye discussed with him during the day, which made Tan Long feel that Wang Ye must be hinting something to him.
Wang Ye's identity could perhaps even be more formidable than that of Fang Cunshan.
Moreover, Tan Long could feel from Fang Cunshan's behavior that he was merely a pawn for them. Fang Cunshan helped him return to the Fang Family, and in exchange, he did tasks for Fang Cunshan.
It was much the same with Wang Ye.
However, compared to Fang Cunshan, Wang Ye seemed to have more of a human touch.
"If you have something to say, just say it. I need to rest," Wang Ye sat on the bed and spoke to Tan Long.
He already knew what purpose Tan Long had in coming here.
Tan Long carefully observed Wang Ye's expression before finally speaking, "Regarding the matter you discussed with me during the day, I've given it some serious thought, and I feel that following you will lead to a more promising future for me."
"So..."
Tan Long took a step forward, looking at Wang Ye, "I've decided to faithfully follow you from now on, with Master Wang as my leader."
"Fine."
Wang Ye responded, "Is there anything else?"
"Anything else..." Tan Long thought for a moment, "Tonight in the bar, those people from the minor powers and small families, were they all led away by Master Wang's strategies?"
Tan Long felt that when Wang Ye knew their target was the Wang family's items, he didn't make any significant moves.
It wasn't for lack of action.
It was because Wang Ye might have set up his plans from the very beginning, just waiting for the fish to jump in.
Hence, Tan Long had serious suspensions that the reason members of the Yun City guard team showed up at the bar tonight, right as the meeting was about to start, was because of Wang Ye.
Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence?
The meeting was just about to begin.
And the members of the Yun City guard team arrived right then.
"Yes, I told them to come," Wang Ye knew what Tan Long was thinking, so his answer was very brief. In this way, he both spoke the truth and let Tan Long maintain his original thoughts.
As for whether he had deceived Tan Long?
He himself never said so; it was Tan Long who had that thought. What did it have to do with him?
Besides, he had said he could help Tan Long. Next, he would certainly be able to assist Tan Long, to return to the Tan Family, or even... to seize the position of the Head of the Tan Family!
"Master Wang is truly formidable!"
When Tan Long heard Wang Ye admit it, he sincerely exclaimed in admiration.
Indeed, Master Wang was just as he had imagined, and what had been revealed was merely the tip of the iceberg of Master Wang's abilities.
In fact, the power that Master Wang kept hidden was truly terrifying.
"If there's nothing else, leave," Wang Ye said to Tan Long, who was still there.
Next, he had to organize the clues he had gathered that day.
In his view, Tan Long had nothing else to do there, so he directly issued an order to leave.
"Yes, Master Wang."
Upon hearing Wang Ye's words, Tan Long didn't say much and left straight away.
Tan Long closed the door for Wang Ye and started to wonder a bit.
Master Wang's attitude towards him seemed a bit different that evening.
Somewhat cold.
After agreeing to become Wang Ye's loyal younger brother, shouldn't Master Wang speak to him with more significance and tell him about the grand plans to come?
But Wang Ye did not do so.
Instead, he directly asked him to leave.
Why?
Could it be... there was some profound meaning in Master Wang's actions?
Tan Long did not know that Wang Ye simply felt that there was nothing else for Tan Long to discuss with him, so he had Tan Long leave while he himself needed to organize the clues he had seen during the day.
He immediately began to conjecture.
Could it be that Master Wang was telling him that talk is cheap?
No matter what he said he could offer Master Wang, Master Wang felt that until deeds were done, words were hollow.
And Master Wang did not make false promises but instead would help him in the days to come.
Telling him that he would help directly and straightforwardly but never paint a grand future that might not happen.
There was no need to say anything.
Action was all that was needed.
He himself had to prove his worth and strength to Wang Ye.
And Wang Ye, even without saying so, would provide assistance after Tan Long had demonstrated his use and strength.
When Tan Long thought of this, he suddenly felt an epiphany.
His heart began to admire Wang Ye.
He hadn't expected that Master Wang, who appeared to be only around twenty, would have such profound thoughts.
Unlike other leaders.
Other leaders would start off by saying how following them would reap numerous benefits.
First, they would promise a pie in the sky.
But Master Wang had not spoken in this manner.
Action was all that was needed.
Everything was understood without words.
Tan Long felt that Wang Ye's way, his kind of person, was the most reliable and worthy of trust!
