After Zhan Degao finished his explanation, the hall fell into an eerie silence.
The only three people who were not affected were Jiang Yue, Gu Ye and Zhan Xiaotian.
Jiang Yue was wearing a down jacket and was sweating. She wanted to take it off, but her hands were immediately held down by Gu Ye.
"I'm hot!" Jiang Yue pouted in dissatisfaction. She had just unzipped her pants but Gu Ye wouldn't let her. She was so hot.
"Leave it open, don't take it off!" Gu Ye knew that Jiang Yue was only wearing a thin sweater underneath, which was tight and showed off her curves. He almost had a nosebleed when he saw it in the morning.
Jiang Yue had no choice but to pull her down jacket down to expose her shoulders.
"Fan!" Gu Ye ordered Zhan Xiaotian who was standing behind.
"Okay!" Zhan Xiaotian very servilely found a piece of cardboard, stood behind Jiang Yue and fanned slowly. Looking at his movements, it was obvious that he had practiced them before.
The people in the Zhan family were busy keeping silent and didn't even have time to look at Zhan Xiaotian.
On the contrary, Mr. Qi and Director Wu kept looking towards Jiang Yue and Gu Ye, their hearts filled with fear.
This young man came in with the head of the Zhan family. He looks very similar to Zhan Shiqing, so the identity of this young man is obvious.
But what shocked everyone more than his identity as a young man was his attitude towards Gu Ye and Jiang Yue.
As soon as he came in, he called Jiang Yue "sister", followed behind Gu Ye like a lackey, and did whatever Gu Ye told him to do. Gu Ye and Jiang Yue sat, and he stood, calling her "brother" all the time. But the people in the Zhan family seemed to be used to it and were not angry or surprised at all.
Everyone's heart trembled involuntarily. The status of the Zhan family was already high enough. What kind of status and position could someone have who could make all the people in the Zhan family bow down to him?
Old Qi and others couldn't help but recall the scene when Zhan Degao called Gu Ye "Second Young Master" and quickly slid to his knees when he heard his name.
Everyone's faces turned pale, their hands clenched tightly, veins bulged on the back of their hands, and everyone was thinking: Who is Gu Ye?
The matter had been made clear, and the faces of the Zhan family members were all livid. Zhan Shihao from the third room kicked Zhan Degao in the chest.
"hateful!"
Zhan Degao felt a sharp pain in his chest and spat out blood.
"That's enough!" Zhan Shiqing stopped Zhan Shihao with a sullen face, "It's already happened, it's useless to kill him now!"
"Hao Fugui, we will settle accounts with you for all the evil you have done in Jiang Province over the years by taking advantage of my Zhan family's power!"
"Wait a minute!" Jiang Yue interrupted Zhan Shiqing and stepped forward. "I don't care what the Zhan family and Hao Fugui are settling. Hao Fugui has to pay me back first!"
Gu Ye followed closely behind Jiang Yue, his eyes never leaving Jiang Yue for even a second.
"You smashed my two stores. The compensation for all the losses inside the stores plus mental damage is one million! Not a penny less!" Jiang Yue showed the IOU again.
"Hiss~" Everyone present gasped, but it was not because Jiang Yue wanted to ask Hao Fugui for one million, but because Jiang Yue dared to speak to Zhan Shiqing in such a tone. You have to know that Zhan Shiqing's identity is——
However, something even more surprising happened to everyone.
After being interrupted by Jiang Yue, Zhan Shiqing was not angry, but said amiably: "It is only natural to pay back a debt!"
"Did you hear that? Hao Fugui, give me back the money!" Jiang Yue shouted coldly.
"This, this is not fair! It's a mistake, it must be a mistake!" Han Lu screamed desperately.
"So annoying!" Zhan Xiaotian drew his knife at dawn, ready to knock Han Lu out with it. This woman is not only vicious, but also so noisy. She should be knocked out!
Han Lu was frightened by Zhan Xiaotian and hid behind Hao Qian.
"You are qualified to talk about fairness? Why don't you think about the word fairness when you bully others?" Jiang Yue sneered.
"Okay, stop talking nonsense. One million, I want it today! It's still five hours before dark. If I don't see the compensation in five hours——"
Zhan Xiaotian laughed twice and said, "You will end up in a miserable situation!"
Jiang Yue: “…”
"I'll leave this place to you. We're leaving!" Seeing that Jiang Yue's head was covered in sweat and her little face was flushed with heat, Gu Ye wanted to take her away.
"Okay! We'll come to you after we've resolved the problem here!" Zhan Shiqing was very gentle towards Gu Ye.
Gu Ye and Jiang Yue didn't look at the other people present, and they walked outside.
When passing by Han Yao, Jiang Yue stopped, turned around and said to Zhan Xiaotian: "This woman fell in love with Gu Ye and wanted Gu Ye to divorce me and marry her!"
Gu Ye: “…”
Zhan Xiaotian immediately said with disdain: "She is so ugly. My brother has high standards. How could he possibly like her?"
Han Yao was so angry: "You, who are you saying is ugly?"
Zhan Xiaotian, "Of course I'm talking about you! Ugly girl! Ugly freak! A toad wanting to eat swan meat!"
Jiang Yue continued, "Their family also said that as long as Gu Ye enters the Hao family, he will have a worry-free future! A prosperous career in the government!"
Zhan Xiaotian immediately laughed out loud, "What a joke, just them? They have the nerve to say they can protect my brother's future? My brother needs them to protect him? Hahaha, this is hilarious!"
But while laughing, Zhan Xiaotian suddenly paused, "Wait, they are not going to use my family connections to protect my brother's future, are they?"
Seeing Jiang Yue's expression, Zhan Xiaotian's mouth twitched, and he knew it!
What a bunch of idiots!
"Just now she told me to kneel down and kowtow to them 100 times, and to ask Gu Ye to kneel down and admit his fault to them, and also said--"
"What else is there to say?" Zhan Xiaotian's expression was stiff. All the people in the Zhan family looked over, with grim expressions on their faces.
"Han Yao and Han Lu said that Zhan Degao promised them that Gu Ye would not be able to serve as a soldier!" They were about to leave, and Jiang Yue would not be so kind as to not bother with Han Yao and Han Lu. They would settle the score on the spot. The Han sisters dared to humiliate her and Gu Ye, so they had to bear the consequences.
This is the price they pay for their arrogance!
"Bang!" Another person kicked Zhan Degao. This time it was Zhan Shiqing. He was always steady and reserved, and would not get angry easily when he was in a high position. At this time, he could not help but point at Zhan Degao and yelled: "Just you?"
Who is Gu Ye? He is the most vengeful person. If Gu Ye holds the grudge against Zhan Degao, a fool who spoke nonsense, under the name of the Zhan family, it will be a big trouble!
Moreover, this idiot not only wanted Gu Ye and Jiang Yue to kneel down, but also dared to say that Gu Ye could not be a soldier?
"No, it wasn't me who said that. It was Han Yao and Han Lu. They said that! It was Hao Fugui, Hao Qian and the others who said that! They said that the Second Young Master Gu offended them. They want to make sure that the Second Young Master Gu can't serve as a soldier and want him to pack up and leave!" At this point, Zhan Degao no longer cared about his face and put all the blame on the Hao family.
As he spoke, he spat out two more mouthfuls of blood, and his face was as pale as gold paper.
Zhan Shiqing was so angry that he laughed, "Hao Fugui, you have so much power! You really think you are the emperor of Jiang Province!"
"No, no, I didn't..." Hao Fugui had realized that the game was over. He collapsed to the ground, shaking like a sieve. There was no energy left in his sinister eyes, and he looked completely collapsed.
He didn't understand. Everything had been going smoothly for him these years. Just relying on the reputation of the Zhan family, he had been able to dominate the provincial capital of Jiang Province for so many years. Why, why did it turn out like this?
