In the evening, Li Cheng and his friends separated.
Li Cheng drove Zhao Xinrui back to Zhao's house, while Zheng Yanyu drove back to Zheng's house.
Zhao family.
"You said they would come back in the evening. It's been so long, why haven't they come back yet?"
Zhao Jianguo looked at Zhao Zhuang standing beside him with a puzzled expression on his face.
"It should be soon, right? There's no way he won't be able to come back. Li Chengdu said so, and I can still trust him."
Zhao Zhuang was also a little puzzled.
According to normal time, they should have returned from the project by now.
"Is it possible that they forgot?"
"You want to call and ask?"
Zhao Jianguo asked.
"Dad, you don't know that Li Cheng and the Lu family have been at odds recently, and the Lu family is in a difficult situation."
"It's better not to call and urge them, just wait for them to come back on their own."
Zhao Zhuang told Li Cheng what had happened recently.
"Go against the Lu family? My granddaughter is still with Li Cheng. If the Lu family dares to lay a hand on my granddaughter, I will never let them go."
"You're the mayor, and Li Cheng is your son-in-law after all. Can't you help suppress the Lu family? Let the Lu family know how powerful we are, so they won't dare to act rashly or presumptuously?"
Zhao Jianguo had a serious expression on his face.
"Dad, don't worry. I've already had my men take action. They'll be paying special attention to the Lu family recently. If the Lu family makes any moves, they'll be dealt with seriously and won't give them any chances."
Zhao Zhuang said.
"Why don't you go out and greet them so they don't get stopped at the door."
Zhao Jianguo urged.
Hearing what Zhao Jianguo said, Zhao Zhuang showed a helpless smile on his face. Since the old man was so worried, Zhao Zhuang might as well go out and take a look. There was nothing to worry about anyway.
But just as he left the sofa, a voice came from the door: "No need, Mayor Zhao, we're here."
Zhao Jianguo and Zhao Zhuang turned their heads and saw Li Cheng and Zhao Xinrui coming in from outside.
Zhao Zhuang looked at the two people who were safe and sound, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
As long as they are fine, it’s fine. If anything happens to them, the old man will definitely not let him go.
"How's it going? Did the Lu family not cause trouble today?"
When Zhao Zhuang met Li Cheng, he asked directly about the Lu family.
"Don't talk about this. What a bullshit Lu family. Forget it."
"If you want to talk about work, wait until tomorrow. My precious granddaughter will be home tonight, and I want to have a good chat with her."
Zhao Jianguo had a serious expression on his face.
"Okay, okay, then we won't talk about it."
Zhao Zhuang replied.
Then Zhao Zhuang gave Li Cheng a helpless look, and they walked towards the sofa together.
Sitting on the sofa, Zhao Jianguo asked Li Cheng and Zhao Xinrui about their recent affairs and how they were doing, showing the concern of a caring elder.
After sitting for about ten minutes, the food was brought to the table from the kitchen, and Li Cheng and the others went straight to the dining table to eat.
"Chief Zhao, Mr. Zhao, let's have a drink. I brought some wine."
Li Cheng took out the wine he bought on the road.
"Okay, we're having a good time tonight, let's have a drink."
"But don't drink too much."
Zhao Zhuang instructed,
"no problem."
Li Cheng agreed with a smile.
The meal was very enjoyable. No one in the audience talked about other unhappy things or those unhappy people.
In fact, it’s not that I don’t want to say it, it’s just that Mr. Zhao doesn’t allow me to say it.
After eating for nearly two hours and getting their fill, Li Cheng and the others went straight to the sofa to sit and chat.
It was past ten o'clock when Li Cheng and Zhao Xinrui left Zhao's house.
On the way back to Caesar Villa, Zhao Xinrui was very happy and kept talking to Li Cheng about her childhood.
Li Cheng had never heard of these before, so he was very curious when he heard them now.
But at this moment, suddenly several cars from behind caught up. These cars did not stop, but surrounded Li Cheng's car and forcibly took Li Cheng away.
Li Cheng had no choice but to follow the cars.
"I'll call my dad and ask him to bring someone over."
As Zhao Xinrui said this, she was about to call Zhao Zhuang.
"No, let's see what the situation is first."
Li Cheng replied.
They were driven by these cars for more than ten kilometers before they stopped.
Li Cheng turned his head and took a look. It was an old house without any gorgeous decoration or gorgeous appearance.
He didn't quite understand why these people brought him here.
"Stand next to me for a while, and don't go anywhere else."
Li Cheng gave Zhao Xinrui instructions.
"knew."
Zhao Xinrui nodded in agreement.
The other people got out of the car, and Li Cheng and Zhao Xinrui also got out of the car. They walked towards the house.
The outside of this house is very ordinary, and there is nothing curious about it at all.
But after entering, Li Cheng was stunned. The decoration here was very luxurious, and there was an embedded running water on the ground on the first floor, and there were many fish swimming in it.
The furniture on display is all made of the finest huanghuali wood, and the decorations are all famous antiques.
Seeing these things, Li Cheng had to say that the owner of this house was really luxurious.
"This way."
One of them said to Li Cheng.
Hearing this, Li Cheng pulled Zhao Xinrui and continued walking with the other party.
They came to the living room, where an old man was sitting on the sofa listening to an opera.
Seeing this scene, Li Cheng showed a puzzled expression on his face.
He didn't know this person either. He looked at Zhao Xinrui beside him, and Zhao Xinrui also shook her head slightly.
One of them walked up to the old man and whispered a few words in his ear. The old man opened his eyes and sat up straight.
The old man looked at Li Cheng and Zhao Xinrui who were standing there.
"Now that you're here, take a seat."
The old man pointed to the empty sofa and said to the two of them.
Li Cheng did not remain stunned, but pulled Zhao Xinrui to sit on the sofa.
"Who are you? What's the matter with calling us here?"
Li Cheng looked at the old man and asked.
"I am the head of the Lu family, Lu Zhifeng."
The old man stated his identity and name.
Upon hearing this, Li Cheng held Zhao Xinrui's hand tightly. He had never expected that this old man was the head of the Lu family.
"What do you want to do by bringing us here?"
Li Cheng asked.
"I just want to talk to you. You killed my grandson. You must give me an explanation."
Lu Zhifeng said with a serious expression.
"What's the explanation? He killed my girlfriend's father, so I killed him. It's normal. A life for a life."
Li Cheng said with a cold snort.
"A life for a life. Very good. Then you will pay for my grandson's life."
Lu Zhifeng suddenly became angry.
The people standing by took out their weapons and pointed them at Li Cheng, as if they were ready to kill him at any time.
When Zhao Xinrui saw this situation, a nervous expression appeared on her face and she held Li Cheng's hand tightly without letting go.
