After Listening to What Inside My Mind the Female Leads Want to Flung Into My Harem-Chapter 162 – [What the hell, are you guys starting again?]
After receiving the message from Wang Defa, Tang Yu was in the car, preparing to head home.
Having dealt with the Wenren family, he had left the remaining pieces to Lu Junzhuo to handle.
Upon learning that Wang Defa had acquired a farm capable of growing crops at a thousand times the usual speed, Tang Yu was delighted.
Now that he could refine elixirs, he was just short of materials. With such a cheat-like farm, heavenly treasures were no longer a concern.
It had to be said that after the divine tree suppressed the Shitty System once again, the rewards from that lousy system were becoming increasingly generous.
With the end of the chaotic battle in Suzhou and Hangzhou, the Tang family hosted a banquet at one of their hotels that very night.
Old Master Tang invited almost all the prominent families in Suzhou and Hangzhou, except for the thirteen families that had betrayed the Tang family.
When everyone gathered and noticed the absence of these thirteen families, they understood the Tang family's intention.
This was a reckoning.
Those thirteen families were now like grasshoppers after autumn.
Their family businesses were caught off guard by the Tang Group, which seized the opportunity to acquire a large number of shares at low prices, paving the way for a forced takeover.
In addition, the four major families, led by the Tang family, began to suppress them from all sides.
"Thank you all for coming to this banquet and giving this old man some face," Old Master Tang said energetically from the stage, addressing the crowd with pleasantries.
He didn't mention the thirteen families at all.
The gathering was merely a clear statement.
Once those thirteen families were dealt with, the power dynamics in Suzhou and Hangzhou would be redefined.
How to divide the new pie was up to everyone to decide.
The Tang family was already the uncrowned king of Suzhou and Hangzhou, undisputed in both the business and ancient martial arts worlds.
The Wang, Su, and Qin families, who contributed significantly to this commercial war, also received generous rewards.
Old Master Tang had already privately negotiated with the elders of these three families, offering enough benefits to make the old foxes smile with satisfaction.
When Old Master Tang finished his speech, the guests applauded and began discussing recent events over dinner.
Many curious glances were cast toward Tang Yu, not because they thought Young Master Tang had done something earth-shattering, as they were not familiar with the affairs of the ancient martial arts world.
They were curious about why Tang Yu's table was filled with beautiful women.
Su Muyue from the Su family, Qin Kexin from the Qin family, and Wang Yixue, the eldest daughter of the Wang family, were all seated together, drawing everyone's attention.
Qin Ming, the eldest son of the Qin family, was also at the table, but he didn't have much presence.
He had originally been sitting with a few other young masters and Tang Yu, but when the three women arrived, the young masters sensibly moved to other tables.
Not to mention, a single glance from Wang Yixue was enough to make these young masters retreat three feet.
Everyone knew that Wang Yixue was the MVP of the Suzhou and Hangzhou business war, manipulating the vast funds of the four major families and wreaking havoc in the stock market.
However, with the elders of the major families present today, Su Muyue had the home-court advantage.
She, who was engaged to Tang Yu, sat beside him with a charming smile, making many young masters internally bleed with envy.
Wasn't this woman the one who used to look down on Young Master Tang? It was said she used to give him the cold shoulder every day.
How did she suddenly change into a different person?
"Try this snow cake, it's quite good," Su Muyue said, placing a piece of pastry in Tang Yu's bowl.
It had been a while since she had sat down to eat with Tang Yu like this.
Ever since that guy named Ye Chen appeared, Suzhou and Hangzhou had become chaotic, and Tang Yu had been disappearing day by day.
Before Tang Yu could thank her, Qin Kexin, sitting beside him, placed a steamed dumpling in his bowl and said, "Tang Yu, didn't we love eating Wang's steamed dumplings when we were kids?"
"Today's hotel chef is from Wang's. Try it and see if it tastes the same as before."
"Thanks, you should eat too, don't be too polite," Tang Yu said, sensing a slightly awkward atmosphere.
"You've lost a lot of weight recently, have some beef soup," Qin Kexin suggested.
"Try this pigeon and swallow soup, it's much more nutritious than beef soup," Su Muyue added.
"Hey, bro, have some donkey kidney, it's really nourishing," Qin Ming chimed in.
[What the hell, are you guys starting again?]
[My bowl is already full, stop adding more.]
[Qin Ming, why are you joining in the fun?]
[Luckily, Xiaoyue didn't come today, or it would be even more unbearable.]
Tang Yu internally complained, desperately trying to finish the food in his bowl.
Waste is shameful!
But what surprised Tang Yu was that Wang Yixue didn't join in.
She elegantly nibbled on a piece of pastry, occasionally glancing at Tang Yu with a hint of amusement in her eyes.
Without her participation, the table didn't turn into a scene from the Three Kingdoms.
The main contenders were Su Muyue and Qin Kexin, both vying for Tang Yu's attention.
After both had served Tang Yu several times, Su Muyue smiled at Qin Kexin and said, "Miss Qin, you're sitting so far away, don't tire yourself out serving someone else's fiancé. Why not serve your brother more? Doesn't he like that big kidney?"

Qin Ming, who was drinking juice, choked and almost sprayed it on his sister's face.
"Miss Su might not know, but Tang Yu and I have been friends since childhood. I often served him food when we were kids, it's a habit," Qin Kexin retorted lightly.
"Why don't you both take it easy? I can serve myself," Tang Yu quickly intervened.
[Just eat quietly, stop fussing.]
[You keep serving me food.]
[Anyone watching might think you're two mothers fighting over a son.]
Hearing Tang Yu's internal complaints, Su Muyue and Qin Kexin both rolled their eyes.
Wang Yixue, who was quietly eating, choked on her food.
Tang Yu quickly patted her back and handed her a glass of juice, saying, "Why so rushed while eating?"
"Thank you," Wang Yixue replied with a smile, taking a sip of the juice.
Seeing this, Qin Ming couldn't help but shake his head.
Sister Wang was indeed on another level.
His sister and Su Muyue were far behind in terms of skill.
But that was understandable, given their lack of romantic experience.
At least Sister Wang had been in a relationship with his brother once.
After the meal, everyone sat around the table, resting and chatting.
Wang Yixue sipped her tea and looked at Tang Yu, "Want to go out for a chat?"
"Sure, let's go for a walk. It's been a while since we all gathered," Qin Kexin interjected before Tang Yu could respond.
No way were they going to let the two of them be alone.
Who knew what they might do?
"Sounds good, we should all take a walk," Su Muyue agreed, remaining vigilant. Compared to Qin Kexin, Wang Yixue was clearly the bigger threat.
At this moment, the two women quickly formed a united front.
