Fei Xiang had left, but Wang Yu was stunned.
What in the world was going on? Hadn't he already asked Wang Zhuo to make arrangents? How did things turn out like this?
Although the weather wasn't particularly hot, a cold sweat slid down Wang Yu's face, making him feel uncomfortable all over. Xie Dingtian, Zheng Mingye, Fei Xiang... these big shots from Jiangling, these titans of Handong Province, were all actually here to buy houses?
Wang Yu was terrified. If he dared to continue discrediting Coiling Dragon Bay today, he would be the next one in the headlines! It would either be a car accident or a sudden death! He was making an enemy of every major figure in Handong Province! Not even the Wang Family could protect him now.
"Eh, Young Master Wang, are you also here to buy a house?"
Li Dajiao arrived. He recognized this young master of the Wang Family, who had so status in Jiangling.
"President Li?" Wang Yu swallowed hard, a tickle forming in his throat.
Li Dajiao was the president of the Jiangling Martial Arts Association, another powerful figure.
"Don't speak nonsense, Young Master Wang. I'm not the president," Li Dajiao said, pointing at Lin Mu with a smile. "Our new president is over there."
"What?"
Wang Yu's jaw dropped as he stared at Lin Mu in disbelief. He was the president of the Jiangling Martial Arts Association?
Others might not know, but Wang Yu knew perfectly well. The Jiangling Martial Arts Association was less a martial arts association and more the Jiangling Chamber of Comrce. Its mbers were all influential figures from the business world. His Wang Family was also a mber. But when had Lin Mu beco the president of the Chamber of Comrce?
"President Li, how co I haven't heard anything about him being the president?" Wang Yu asked, assuming Li Dajiao was joking.
"Oh, President Lin hasn't had the chance to complete the handover yet, but ninety percent of the mbers have already voted in favor. The matter is settled," Li Dajiao said with a grin. "See? Everyone ca today, first to et President Lin, and second, to buy a house here at Coiling Dragon Bay."
Wang Yu turned his head and looked. Damn, it was true! Most of the Chamber of Comrce mbers had actually co, their faces beaming as they held gifts in their hands.
"Hey, you, surnad Wang. Weren't you going to play so video? Go on, play it!" Lin Mu suddenly called out with a mocking laugh.
Wang Yu nearly choked on his rage. He'd been so adamant about slandering Coiling Dragon Bay and Lin Mu, but now, how could he possibly dare? Dozens of people had already arrived, each one representing a powerful faction.
"Director Zhong, why are you here too?"
Just then, Peng Qin spotted an old man with white hair, a look of shock on his face. This old man was the director of his hospital, a highly respected figure in the dical field.
"Oh, Peng," Director Zhong said with a smile upon seeing him. "You're here as well."
Peng Qin nodded blankly. "Director Zhong, are you here to buy a house?"
Director Zhong gave a bitter smile. "With my salary, how could I afford a house in Coiling Dragon Bay? I'm here because Sun Tianyang told that President Lin of this developnt has dical skills that reach the heavens. I ca to consult him on a few matters."
Suddenly, Director Zhong added, "By the way, Peng, I heard you and President Lin were old classmates. Could you introduce ?"
Director Zhong's words left Peng Qin utterly frozen.
Sun Tianyang? The Sun Tianyang known as the Divine Doctor? That was Director Zhong's good friend! And Lin Mu… his dical skills reach the heavens? How is that possible? He knew Director Zhong's dical achievents were substantial. He'd even been nad an academician, served as honorary president for several dical universities, and published nurous influential articles in dical journals. Director Zhong was even considered one of the top ten Divine Doctors in the country, reverently addressed as Academician Zhong. Even he has to co and consult Lin Mu on dical issues? How is this possible?
"Heh, heh..." Peng Qin suddenly laughed awkwardly, feeling as if a hand were squeezing his heart, making it difficult to breathe.
Liu Zijian arrived, cast a disdainful glance at Peng Qin, and said, "My Elder Brother Mu wouldn't dare to associate with soone like that. And Elder Brother Mu has no such classmate."
"Young man, what do you an by that?" Director Zhong asked, confused by Liu Zijian's words.
"Oh, it's nothing," Liu Zijian said, shooting another contemptuous look at Peng Qin. "It's just that so people are so despicable, they aren't worthy of being Lin Mu's classmate!"
This ti, Director Zhong understood. He gave Peng Qin a long, deep look and then walked away.
Watching Director Zhong leave, Peng Qin was dumbfounded. He was on the verge of being promoted to departnt head. But from the director's reaction, it seed his chances were now zero.
"Elder Brother Mu, everything over there has been taken care of," Liu Zijian said, walking up to Lin Mu. "The people from Jiangbei of River City will be coming to buy houses soon."
Lin Mu gave a faint nod.
"Lin Mu!" Watching Lin Mu smiling and chatting with the various magnates, Wang Yu clenched his teeth and snarled, "Don't get cocky. You won't be jumping around for long!"
He took a deep breath and muttered to himself, If I can't take down Coiling Dragon Bay, you think I can't take down you? Three days from now will be your death day. We'll see who can protect you then!
The tide of public opinion online had already turned. With so many tycoons gathering at Coiling Dragon Bay to buy hos, what did that prove? It clearly ant that the houses there were exceptional.
On top of that, several online influencers and strears began arriving, confirming that Coiling Dragon Bay was a true paradise on earth.
"It's Coiling Dragon Bay, and it's buzzing with activity! So many luxury cars and big shots from Handong are here!"
"My god, is this a real estate developnt? This is heaven on earth, isn't it?"
"Holy crap, it's so expensive!"
"Expensive? I'd crowdfund if I had to, just to buy a place here!"
At this point, no one believed the rumors Wang Yu had spread online. Everyone was captivated by the stunning beauty of Coiling Dragon Bay.
Then, when the Wang Family released their accusation—claiming Lin Mu was the murderer who destroyed the Fang Family—the situation completely exploded online.
A shocking piece of news surfaced. The owner of Coiling Dragon Bay, it turned out, was also the de facto head of a Charity Foundation. For over half a year, he had helped countless people, donated vast amounts of supplies and funds to disaster-stricken areas, supported thousands of children who couldn't afford an education, and built dozens of orphanages and schools...
One deed after another was brought to light.
The internet erupted with praise. Everyone was hailing Lin Mu as a great benefactor. Coiling Dragon Bay's public relations departnt even issued a statent explaining that the high price of their houses was because their owner used a portion of the profits to fund the foundation and help more people in need.
Buying a house in Coiling Dragon Bay was doing charity!
In an instant, Coiling Dragon Bay beca famous. It was known not only in Jiangling, but throughout Handong Province, and even across the nation. International dia outlets began reporting on it.
As for the Wang Family's attempts to sar Lin Mu as the leader of an evil organization, netizens had only one thing to say: "Shaless! As if you have the right to slander a great benefactor like him!"
Just then, an influencer known as "Bing iren" dropped a bombshell. The person slandering Coiling Dragon Bay and its owner was Wang Yu, a director at Jiangling Television Station. He was doing it to settle a personal grudge. Furthermore, Wang Yu was a mber of the Wang Family, and their goal was to seize Coiling Dragon Bay for themselves.
A chorus of condemnation swept across the internet. Wang Yu was branded a major villain, and the Wang Family was called a den of thieves.
When Wang Yu saw this news, he abruptly spat out a mouthful of blood.
