Fire and theft?
Why didn’t the fire directly kill this brat?
First Master Jun felt regret in his heart, but he didn’t show it on the surface. Instead, he looked at Jun Shi Lian, who was standing behind Governor Nian with his arm hung in front of him.
To be honest, Jun Shi Lian’s appearance really made one wonder if he was injured badly.
Ever since his return, Jun Shi Lian seemed to have never opened that bandage. This seemed to be telling others that his arm was useless.
“Governor Nian, this wouldn’t be appropriate,” First Master Jun said after thinking for a while.
Anyway, the scene where Jun Shi Lian broke out with them had happened. Even though it was not a direct fallout, it was more than enough to let others know that Jun Shi Lian didn’t have any good relationship with the Jun Family.
Why should he accept Jun Shi Lian into the Jun Family?
First Madam Jun also snorted on the back, clearly unwilling to let Jun Shi Lian enter the Jun Family. But she was not qualified to talk in front of Governor Nian, so she could only stand on the back and listened to how First Master Jun arranged this matter.
Hopefully, everything will fall on the way she wanted it to be.
“Well, if the Jun Family is unwilling, I can let Jun Shi Lian stay with me.” Governor Nian smiled faintly. “But if I recall right, Jun Shi Mo hasn’t passed the requirement for exams this year.”
This is a threat, a naked threat.
First Master Jun through that Governor Nian would use the Jun Family’s reputation to persuade him.
To be honest, if it was a month ago, he would be persuaded.
Because he was trying to save the Jun Family.
But right now, there were already so many problems in the Jun Family and First Master Jun couldn’t do anything. Everything that he had been building in the past few years were falling apart and everyone seemed to want to push him deeper into the abyss.
First Master Jun was already on the verge of collapse.
He could not be bothered about the matter of the Jun Family’s reputation anymore. Who would be bothered to care about it now that their own reputation was already very bad.
It was only because their foundation was in this city that the Jun Family managed to hold on so far.
But now, Governor Nian directly took out Jun Shi Mo.
First Master Jun glared at Governor Nian but could only see the calm look of the other party. He gritted his teeth and asked, “What do you want, Governor Nian?”
“Let him stay for one night. There will be someone from the Nan Family coming tomorrow,” Governor Nian replied plainly.
The Nan Family?
Upon hearing this, First Master Jun’s face changed.
Not only him, even First Madam Jun’s expressions also changed.
The two of them knew very well that the so called relationship between the Nan Family and the Jun Family was nothing more than nonsense. They were taking advantage of the fact that not many people in this city knew about the Nan Family.
Moreover, the Nan Family was so far away.
There was no way they would come here purposely just to settle the problem with them. On the other hand, the Jun Family could live comfortably and took advantage of this situation.
So First Master Jun designed this and spread it out.
Anyway, it was true that someone from the Jun Family married into the Nan Family. But how close their relationship is…
It was basically none.
First Master Jun soon tasted the sweetness of using the Nan Family’s name and started to let himself go. He made a lot of troubles again and again, expanding the Jun Family to the point that there were a lot of people who knew about this.
And then…
He was bitten back.
Troubles kept on coming and First Master Jun was struggling to keep the business he had. The few stores that he had has to be sold and the money was used to compensate other people.
“What does it have anything to do with me?” First Master Jun asked, his face looked a bit unnatural.
“I have no time to bother with him and I think that your family should stay together,” Governor Nian replied calmly.
Family?
First Master Jun wanted to scoff when he heard that word.
Because he knew very well that they would not treat Jun Shi Lian as their family members and Jun Shi Lian would not treat them as his family members.
Who would want the other party as their family members?
Neither side wanted it.
But since Governor Nian had spoken, they knew that this matter was more or less settled like this whether they wanted it or not.
“He can stay in an inn,” First Master Jun said and then stopped.
If he was not wrong, the inns are full because of the arrival of the people from other cities due to his business. There was already someone who nearly had to stay in his place just a week ago because the inns are full.
After all, this city didn’t have so many inns to accommodate the arrival of a lot of people.
In normal times, it was rare for the inns to be half full.
But because of the Jun Family’s problem, it has been full for several days straight.
So while the Jun Family was troubled, the other people were happy. They think that the Jun Family was very good as it allowed their business to become better. As much as the Jun Family hated it, they wanted more people to come to find trouble to the Jun Family.
If the Jun Family were to know what they were thinking, it was estimated that their mentality would be broken once more.
“There’s no place,” Governor Nian replied. “And if the Nan Family member who came asked about you, I can have better answer if he’s in the Jun Family. Of course, if you truly didn’t want him to stay with you, I’ll keep him with me and bring him to see that person when he came.”
