Chapter 197 - Exposure

Exposing the Old Factory Director's name as Sun Miao, a native of Han Hai City.

Born into a shipbuilding family, he learned shipbuilding from his family since childhood.

Both his shipbuilding talent and cultivation talent were excellent. At the age of thirty, he took over the shipyard and, in just a few decades, expanded the family shipyard into the number one shipyard in Han Hai City.

In general, Sun Miao lived an enviable life.

Although he suffered from physical ailments in his later years, Sun Miao didn't care. His only concern was the future of his disciples and grand-disciples.

Now that the youngest, Jiang Jun, was also on the right track, Sun Miao's heart was completely at ease.

Overjoyed, Sun Miao ignored his physical condition and laughed loudly.

Seeing Sun Miao laugh, Su Li, who was sitting next to him, quickly stood up, gently stroked Sun Miao's back with his hand, and said with concern, "Master, I know you are very happy, but you should still pay attention to your health."

Jiang Jun saw Su Li's hypocritical and false face, and the anger in his heart grew even stronger.

Sun Miao had secretly praised Su Li for being considerate just a few days ago.

"Junior Brother, sit down quickly. I don't think you've eaten yet. Sit down and eat together."

Su Li smiled gently, looking like the perfect Senior Brother.

"Okay."

Jiang Jun sat down and picked up Sun Miao's lunch box on the table, eating large mouthfuls.

"I'm starving to death. They say the richer you are, the more stingy you become. After talking all morning, they didn't even give me food."

Jiang Jun's sudden action made Su Li's hand, which was gently patting Sun Miao's back, pause for a moment.

However, he quickly smiled with a slightly teasing tone, "Junior Brother, even if you're starving, you shouldn't snatch Master's food. There's plenty more in the Dining Hall downstairs."

Sun Miao didn't mind at all and laughed, "Ah, it's okay. At my age, it's okay to eat less."

More than eating, he was immersed in the harmonious atmosphere of brotherly respect before him.

Jiang Jun seemed like a starving ghost who hadn't eaten for years, stuffing all the remaining half-box of food into his stomach.

Then, patting his stomach, he comfortably lay on the sofa and exclaimed, "Full, full."

Su Li saw that Jiang Jun had eaten all the food and sighed helplessly, "I really can't do anything with you."

Saying that, he got up, picked up the empty lunch box, and walked towards the door.

"Master, you can eat mine first. I'll go get some more."

After speaking, Su Li walked out of the room with the empty lunch box.

When the sound of footsteps gradually faded away, Jiang Jun's expression became serious. He first signaled Sun Miao to be quiet.

Then, he tiptoed to the door, put his ear close, and after confirming that Su Li had left a sufficient distance, he hurriedly walked towards Sun Miao.

Sun Miao looked at Jiang Jun's suspicious behavior with a puzzled expression, but still cooperated.

Jiang Jun walked up to Sun Miao, looked at his face covered with wrinkles, and said softly with pity, "Master, please remain calm after listening.

You've been poisoned, and the person who poisoned you is likely Su Li."

Sun Miao's breathing paused, first fell silent for a moment, and then chuckled.

But after laughing, Sun Miao's pupils visibly trembled.

The short-term intense emotional fluctuations caused his blood to rush up, his chest to ache, and he couldn't help but cough violently.

Jiang Jun was anxious, but still maintained a trace of calmness.

He took out the small ceramic bottle that Quan Yue had given him from his chest, opened the bottle, and carefully poured out a tiny pill from it.

The pill was made by kneading the decocted medicinal mud into a round ball, which was dark black.

Jiang Jun held the pill in his hand and handed it to Sun Miao, wanting him to take it.

Sun Miao hesitated for a moment, but still opened his mouth and swallowed the pill.

After taking the pill, Sun Miao's coughing did not stop, and Jiang Jun could only anxiously pat his back to help his Master smooth his breathing.

Sun Miao had also lived for most of his life and had seen great storms, and soon adjusted his emotions.

"Who gave you this information? Is it reliable?"

Jiang Jun didn't say it aloud, but he nodded very solemnly.

Sun Miao sighed in the next moment, his straight back bending slightly.

His face also aged several years in an instant.

Jiang Jun's eyes turned red immediately. It was the first time he had seen Sun Miao with such a weak expression.

He had never seen Sun Miao look so fragile, even when he was sick and weak.

Sun Miao cared most about his family, so hearing the news of Su Li's betrayal was undoubtedly a huge blow to Sun Miao.

However, Jiang Jun had to tell Sun Miao about this as soon as possible, otherwise, he would not be able to stop Su Li's conspiracy alone.

"Master, what should we do next? Should we subdue Su Li first?"

Jiang Jun asked anxiously.

Sun Miao was still a little listless, but he straightened his bent back again, his eyes flashing coldly, and said, "Don't worry, just act as usual later, and leave the rest to me."

Jiang Jun nodded, then returned to his seat and put on a lazy expression.

Time passed slowly, and the atmosphere in the room was as silent as a stagnant pool.

Finally, after a while, footsteps began to be heard outside the door.

Su Li walked into the room with a lunch box containing food and said with a smile, "Master, look, luckily I went in time, otherwise, you wouldn't be able to eat your favorite Sea Fish Soup."

Su Li placed the lunch box in front of Sun Miao and sat down again opposite Jiang Jun.

Sun Miao looked at the Sea Fish Soup in the lunch box, but did not show his usual excitement.

He pushed the lunch box to Su Li and said, "I've already eaten enough today, let's split this Sea Fish Soup in half. I remember you liked drinking Sea Fish Soup when you were a kid."

Su Li was a little surprised, but immediately refused, "It's enough for me to eat the leftovers. I specially brought this for you because I saw you coughing. Don't waste it."

Sun Miao was now completely disheartened.

He snorted coldly at Su Li and said, "Humph! How could I not have noticed your sinister intentions? You actually dared to kill me, your master. You are really audacious!"

Sun Miao questioned Su Li angrily.

Su Li was startled by the sudden cold snort, but he still feigned innocence and argued, "Master, what are you talking about? Why are you suddenly so angry?"

Then, he turned his gaze to Jiang Jun on the side, pointed at his nose and said, "Did this kid tell you something? Master, no matter what this kid says, it's all because he's jealous of me, his Senior Brother, and wants to frame me."

Once Sun Miao's loving disciple filter disappeared, all kinds of details that had been unconsciously filtered out by him in the past became clearly visible.

Su Li's lies were completely exposed in his eyes.

Moreover, Su Li's despicable behavior of trying to slander his Junior Brother even when he was about to die made Sun Miao completely recognize Su Li's true face.

"Bang!"

He angrily slammed the table, directly breaking the thick wooden table in two.

"You still dare to quibble, today I will teach you a lesson, you rebellious disciple."

As he spoke, a wooden mallet appeared in Sun Miao's hand.

Moreover, seven bright Soul Rings appeared behind him.
