Crazy! Are You Really A Beast Tamer?

Chapter 465: Chapter 249: Lu Zhong’s Request!_2

He had sprained his ankle, an injury that affected his muscles and bones. Wu Yao’s contract with the Emerald Peacock did have some success in treating bleeding external wounds and mental trauma.

But it was of no use to muscle and bone injuries.

Wu Yao couldn’t possibly have been unaware of this.

In Gao Wenyuan’s view, Wu Yao’s actions were more than just showing off her goodwill and kindness as the noble lady of the Wu Family of Lu City using him as a prop.

She was also taunting him.

Taunting him for having failed to attract Fang Mu, causing him mental distress.

Mainly, Gao Wenyuan could only express his gratitude to Wu Yao for such behavior. This was because only less it was fitting for his inherent character and his identity as a noble lady in the Gao Family.

Then he remembered how he failed to entice Fang Mu due to the accident caused by Master Lu Zhong.

Gao Wenyuan’s mood corroborated a bit given the detail.

He had prepared everything according to his plan, and he couldn’t predict that Lu Zhong would suddenly come to see Fang Mu.

Red Falcon would be angry, but he would mostly likely not vent it on him, after all, he still had a use.

However, it was clear to Gao Wenyuan that having the opportunity at the Fish Festival was much less desirable than unexpectedly meeting Fang Mu at this trade fair.

Especially since he had embarrassed himself in front of Fang Mu today, leaving a deep impression on him.

Encountering Fang Mu in the vast crowd of the Fish Festival would just seem too deliberate!

Everyone else wouldn’t want to offend Gao Wenyuan due to their relationship with the Gao Family. However, there was one person who had no fear.

That person was Gao Hengyun, the noble son of the Gao family.

Gao Hengyun was greatly getting perturbed by Gao Wenyuan, who used Wu Yao’s marriage to provoke him.

Fortunately, Gao Wenyuan rushed to Red Falcon’s side right after pushing Gao Hengyun’s buttons.

Regarding his father, Red Falcon, Gao Hengyun was very afraid.

Being punished hundreds of times since childhood made the fear of Red Falcon been engrained in his genes.

Only the deterrence of Red Falcon could force Gao Hengyun to calm down!

At present, with Gao Wenyuan making such a huge fool of himself, the early set plan had also failed.

Gao Hengyun believed this was the perfect opportunity for a counterattack against Gao Wenyuan.

After Wu Yao, He Shiyu and other people helped Gao Wenyuan to a sofa in the corner and dispersed, Gao Hengyun picked a cup of fruit wine from the dining area.

He gracefully came to Gao Wenyuan’s side.

From a distance, it seemed like there was harmony between the noble son and the noble lady of the Gao Family.

Gao Hengyun did not look down upon Gao Wenyuan just because he was a distantly related member of the Gao family.

The words that came out of Gao Hengyun’s mouth, however, made Gao Wenyuan feel as if he was in an ice cave.

“Gao Wenyuan, if your previous worth in my father’s heart was a full cup of water, that cup is now nearly dry,”

“When you fell just now, Jianmu didn’t say a word for you, even though your makeup was not smeared no matter how embarrassed you were,”

“If you can’t attract Jianmu with your looks, where is your value?”

Seeing that Gao Wenyuan was preparing to talk back, Gao Hengyun continued without even giving Gao Wenyuan a chance to speak.

“Anyway, Wu Yao is getting married now, and I have lost the person I like,”

“If you can’t attract Jianmu, I will immediately inform my father that I am interested in you,”

“Let you be mine,”

“You can work for me then!”

“At least I will let you know how tough I can be!”

“Even when you’re given a chance you, just can’t do it!”

Gao Wenyuan stared into Gao Hengyun’s eyes with sheer terror.

Gao Wenyuan was certain that Gao Hengyun didn’t mean to preach to him.

It was indeed a threat.

If he no longer had value, Gao Hengyun would compete with Red Falcon; it would mostly likely seal her fate.

If she was previously regarded as a distantly related member of the Gao Family, Gao Wenyuan looked upward admiringly, recognizing the bloodline of the Gao Family.

But at this moment, a strong desire to survive made Gao Wenyuan just long enough to stay alive.

Looking around, none of the people present could help him.

When he was still a noble lady of the Gao Family, several gentlemen present at the scene were willing to talk to him regardless of his looks or his status as a noble lady of the Gao family.

However, none of these people could save him from sinking deeper.

At this moment, Gao Wenyuan suddenly thought of Jianmu.

Given Jianmu’s attitude towards her just now, there was little hope she could entice Jianmu.

Could there be other ways for Jianmu to keep her by his side to protect her?

Previously, the Gao Family was her support, and now it could also be her leverage.

Gao Hengyun noticed that Gao Wenyuan had lowered his gaze, thinking that Gao Wenyuan was scared.

However, he didn’t know that his few words had thoroughly awakened Gao Wenyuan, making her understand her predicament.

Gao Wenyuan started visualizing her future for her own survival.

Upstairs on the second-floor corridor, Fang Mu, tiring of Lu Zhong’s empty praises, bluntly said,

“Master Lu Zhong, I’ll say it again, if you need something from me, you can directly ask,”

“I can’t guarantee that I’ll be able to help you, but I’ll do my best to try,”

Lu Zhong became a bit nervous hearing the first few words.

He and Fang Mu had been making small talk for so long without bringing the main point. This was because the favor he needed from Fang Mu was challenging to achieve.

Otherwise, there would be no need to struggle so much.

But Fang Mu’s last sentence—that he would do his best—brought Lu Zhong a sense of closeness to Fang Mu.

As if he could see sincerity in his eyes.
