Ling Yun was treated as an honored guest. If he forced himself to leave now, it would be too cold and rude. Hence, he nodded and agreed to stay.
He wanted to see what Old Master He had up his sleeve and what the He family's business was related to him.
Not long after, He Yuqiong's villa was deserted. Luxury cars drove in one after another. People from all the branches of the He family began to gather there.
However, the first to arrive were not the He family, but two lawyers. They came in two separate cars and entered the door almost one after the other.
The two were a man and a woman. The man was mature and steady, while the woman was young and capable.
"Brother Lin, let me introduce you. These two are the most famous lawyers in Hong Kong and Macau. This is Mr. Weber, my grandfather's personal lawyer. This is Linda, my hired lawyer."
He Yuqiong saw the two enter and immediately stood up to welcome them. After greeting them, she came over to introduce them to Ling Yun.
Ling Yun knew very well that Haojiang was a place where the law was the most important. If even the He family's lawyers came to the meeting, it meant that Old Master He was serious this time.
He sat upright and did not move. He only smiled and nodded at the two as a form of greeting.
In this regard, the lawyer named Webb didn't say much. He only bowed slightly to Ling Yun and went to talk to He Wencan.
However, the young female lawyer called Linda was very angry at Ling Yun's rudeness. She thought to herself, Since when did the He family make friends with such a lowly person?
However, no matter how angry she was, Ling Yun was still a stranger in her eyes. Therefore, Linda only glanced at Ling Yun coldly and didn't look at him anymore. She directly pulled He Yuqiong aside and began to talk in a low voice.
Ling Yun drank his tea calmly. He saw everything, but he did not care about Linda's reaction. After all, he was just a spectator. If He Wencan did not force him to stay, he would not need to know these people.
Not long after the two lawyers sat down, people from all the branches of the He family began to gather.
Old Master He's other sons, more than ten daughters, and more than ten grandchildren of He Yuqiong's generation. Almost all of them came. Soon, the entire villa's living room was filled. There were not enough seats in the house.
This was an eye-opener for Ling Yun!
Old Master He was indeed a playboy. He had several wives. These people in front of him were legally qualified to inherit his family property.
At this moment, Ling Yun couldn't help but use his Divine Sense to scan He Caitong, who had been standing outside the door with a smile on his face. He couldn't be blamed for fighting for so many brothers and sisters. If he didn't fight for it, He Caitong wouldn't get much when the old master passed away.
When it was close to noon, the last family to arrive was He Yuqiong's parents. Naturally, He Yuqiong welcomed them personally and introduced them to Ling Yun.
This time, Ling Yun, who had been sitting motionless for a long time, finally stood up and shook hands with He Yuqiong's father, He Caizhao.
He had no choice. After all, his brother Tang Meng liked He Yuqiong. She might even become Tang Meng's father-in-law in the future. Ling Yun had to give him some face.
But all of this was a completely different scene in the eyes of the other branches. They looked at each other, and all of them guessed exactly who this young and ordinary-looking stranger was.
Of course, they couldn't recognize him. Ling Yun was now using the name Lin Tian, so his appearance was naturally Lin Tian's.
"Cough cough!"
He Wencan suddenly coughed twice. In an instant, the noise in the house was suppressed.
"I said to have a family meeting, not a family gathering. Why did all of you bring your children here? What's going on?"
"There are so many people in the house all of a sudden. What's the matter with all of you bringing your children here?"
He Wencan spoke. He sat up straight on the sofa and looked at his children sternly.
"I'm telling you clearly, it's useless even if you bring them here. It doesn't mean that whoever has more children can get a bigger share of my property. My grandchildren have nothing to do with today's meeting. Tell them to wait outside the door."
Hearing those words, He Wencan's children immediately exchanged glances with one another. Disappointment was written all over their faces.
However, none of them dared to challenge the old master's authority.
"Go out, go out, all of you go out and play in the yard outside …"
Some of them began to ask their children to leave the room.
"Yu Qiong, stay here and come to my side!"
At this moment, Old Master He spoke again. This time, his voice doubled in volume.
No one in the house was a fool. With such an obvious contrast, everything was self-explanatory.
More than half of He Wencan's children looked indignant. Even though they were unwilling, they still followed Old Master He's instructions and chased their children out of the door.
In an instant, half of the people in the big room were gone. There were enough seats in the room.
When He Yuqiong stood beside him, Old Master He ordered again, "Big Brother, come in."
He Caitong smiled awkwardly as he walked in step by step. He stood in the middle of the living room.
He Wencan did not look at him. His gaze swept across the faces of his other children. Suddenly, he laughed coldly.
"Hehe, the illness that tortured me for a year is suddenly cured. That lass Yu Qiong is also safe and sound. At this moment, she is perfectly fine by my side. I think most of you should be very disappointed and surprised, right? "
Old Master He's words were concise, but everyone understood. Many of them had teamed up with He Caitong to deal with He Yuqiong. Under Old Master He's sharp gaze, they all lowered their heads.
"Big Brother, tell me clearly what you said yesterday in front of your younger brothers and sisters."
He Caitong knew that he couldn't save his face no matter what. With Ling Yun sitting there, it was useless for him to beg anyone. Therefore, he could only bite the bullet and tell the whole story. He even said that his shares and assets had been transferred to He Yuqiong by Grandpa Ling.
"Unfilial son …"
"How dare Big Brother do such a thing! How unfilial!"
"Boss actually did such a thing, how unfilial!"
"Big Brother deserves it …"
He Wencan smiled as he listened to his children denouncing Big Brother in front of him. It was as if he was watching a show.
People gave a man a push when he was down. It was the same between brothers. This was life!
You guys are scolding Big Brother now. What was I doing when I was under Big Brother's control? Why didn't I show up?
But Old Master He had already seen through life. He could not be bothered to point it out. He only turned his head and looked at Ling Yun, who was also watching the show. Suddenly, he smiled.
"Do you know who helped me to be able to sit here in front of you and convene this meeting for you even though I was in such great danger?"
He Wencan stood up suddenly. His face was solemn as he bowed to Ling Yun.
"It's all thanks to Immortal Master Lin!"
