Urban Seduction: Housewives Club

Qingsi's aunt withdrew her hand from being slapped and jokingly scolded, "The Du family isn't your family, huh? If your grandfather heard that, he'd probably slap you..."

"It was a slip of the tongue, a slip of the tongue..." Wan Qingsi lightly slapped herself twice, shaking her aunt's arm, "Auntie, you can't go tell Grandpa about this, okay?"

"Alright, alright!" Wan Qingsi's aunt laughed, pulling her arm out of Qingsi's grasp and affectionately flicking her nose, "You know, even if I wanted to complain to your grandpa, I couldn't, since he and the others are vacationing in Hawaii..."

Qingsi knew her aunt was joking with her. If she wanted to complain, wouldn't it be simple? Even if they were in Antarctica, a satellite phone would allow her to speak freely.

Wan Qingsi was no longer feeling down now. Her aunt was very satisfied with her current state and held her hand, saying, "Speaking of which, your Eric is a strange person. Although he has established his own business, he rarely appears in public and relies on professional managers to run it.

Moreover, he never interacts with the business community in Shanghai, and he doesn't even attend various banquets and gatherings. I've never seen a businessman like him before! I'm curious, how hasn't the Ling Yan Group gone bankrupt under his leadership?"

"Auntie, how can you say that?" Wan Qingsi pouted, feeling dissatisfied.

"Did I say something wrong?" Qingsi's aunt rolled her eyes and continued, "Businessmen, don't they value relationships? Even with our Du family's current status and wealth, we dare not neglect interpersonal relationships. But your Eric, he just ignores everyone. I don't know if he's just too arrogant or too self-centered..."

After hearing this, Qingsi asked worriedly, "Does this mean that Ling Yan Group is having a hard time now?"

To her surprise, her aunt shook her head and looked up.

"It's strange. Although Eric never builds relationships, their business is booming. Not only do they have a good relationship with the Zhu Ming Group, but they also have business dealings with a dozen or so large companies in Country A! I guess it's very likely that this is related to Eric's background..."

"What background?" Wan Qingsi's eyebrows twitched, and she asked nervously.

Although she knew that Eric was the living Buddha of Sakya, able to control the emotions of nearly a million people, she had never told her aunt about Eric's identity.

In her view, Eric did not want to be exposed to the public, so she naturally had to keep it a secret, not even willing to tell her closest aunt.

But she never expected that her aunt would know!

This was serious.

If this news spread and Eric misunderstood that she had spread it, she would be in big trouble...

Just as she was inexplicably nervous, her aunt's answer came in her ear, "You don't know yet, your Eric is the heir of the Medicine King Sect, a noble status! But I can't figure out why those multinational companies in Country A would give him so much face. Could it be that the influence of the Medicine King Sect has spread to the Americas..."

Qingsi didn't continue listening to her aunt's endless chatter. She breathed a sigh of relief because her Eric's "secret" hadn't leaked. However, she was also surprised. She had never thought that the living Buddha of Sakya would also be the heir of the number one medical family in China...

Just as Wan Qingsi was both relieved and surprised, she heard her aunt's somewhat gloating voice again, "Hehe, there are still people who refuse to give him face from the Medicine King Sect. I admire An Jiaolao..."

"An Jiaolao? Is it the An family of the An Group?" Wan Qingsi grabbed her aunt's hand and asked quickly, "What did he do to Eric?"

"Why are you so nervous?" Qingsi's aunt shook her head, "Your Eric is fine. An family is just suppressing the Ling Yan Group!"

"Why does the An Group want to suppress the Ling Yan Group?" Wan Qingsi looked puzzled.

"Isn't it because of your Eric?" Qingsi's aunt impatiently recounted the rumors circulating in Shanghai's upper class about Amman's connection with Eric.

"That Amman is shameless!" After hearing the whole story, Wan Qingsi was furious, "He already ignores her, yet she still pesters him. Does she think no one wants her?"

Qingsi's aunt gave her a disdainful look. With a couple of snorts, she said, "Talking about Amman, aren't you the same? He doesn't pay much attention to you, but you're still aggressively pursuing him..."

Qingsi stopped her actions and muttered, "How can I be like Amman? I'm just pursuing a man who moves me, not using any unsightly means..."

Qingsi's aunt glanced at Wan Qingsi, whose expression was gradually dimming. Suddenly, she spoke seriously, "Qingsi, I advise you to give up!"

"Why?" Wan Qingsi blinked her eyes, looking puzzled.

Auntie sighed softly and said in a low voice, "Do you know, the Eric you're interested in already has a fiancée, and besides that, he also has two other close female friends!

If he were an ordinary person, Auntie could use some means to keep him by your side and ensure his loyalty to you.

However, he is the heir of the Medicine King Sect, the most powerful civilian force in China.

Our Du family's wealth is simply not worth mentioning to them, even if we add your father's influence in the military. They wouldn't care at all..."

Auntie couldn't continue because she was unnerved by Wan Qingsi's strange gaze. Unable to hold back, she asked, "Why are you staring at me like that?"

"Hahaha..."

Wan Qingsi's laughter started from nowhere and grew louder and louder until her aunt's face turned livid.

She gradually stopped and intermittently said, "Auntie, I never thought that you have the potential to be a 'bully'! What are you thinking of doing, trying to forcefully take away someone else's man..."

Auntie angrily slapped Wan Qingsi's upturned buttocks as she lay on the sofa. She scolded, "Do you have no conscience at all? Everything I do is for you..."

"I know!" Wan Qingsi sat up, leaning into her aunt's embrace. She whispered, "I know Auntie loves me the most..."

Auntie put her arm around Wan Qingsi's shoulder, sighed, and asked, "What are you going to do?"

"What do you mean?"

Auntie felt the veins on her forehead throbbing, and she forced herself to say, "Didn't you hear what I said? That Eric already has a fiancée and a lover..."

"So what?"

"Are you trying to provoke me?" Auntie grabbed Wan Qingsi's shoulder and asked fiercely, "Do you want to get involved in that mess too?"

"Auntie, you don't need to worry about this matter. I know what I'm doing!"

Auntie didn't intend to let her off so easily and said seriously, "Qingsi, don't embarrass our Du family, and don't tarnish your father's reputation..."

Qingsi shook off her aunt's hands, stood up, and said, "Auntie, I'm going out for a walk."

"It's so late, where are you going?" Auntie sighed lightly, "Are you trying to avoid my advice by leaving?"

Qingsi shook her head and said, "No, Auntie, I know you're doing this for my good..."

"Then why are you leaving? Take a shower and rest early."

"No, Auntie, I want to go to Longhua Town."

Auntie frowned slightly, "It's so late, let's wait until tomorrow. I'll go with you..."

"Auntie, I can't relax if I don't go now. I won't be able to sleep!" Wan Qingsi insisted, "I'll just take a quick walk and come back. You go to bed first!"

Watching Wan Qingsi's departing figure, Auntie sighed softly. She said to herself, "Qingsi, do you know, you're naive and foolish now, unlike your old self at all. I hope you don't do anything stupid..."
