As Zhang Jun's voice rang out, the surrounding guests immediately scattered in all directions, not daring to stop him at all.
Who knows if this young master suddenly started a fight because of this, ultimately causing himself to be affected?
No one would dare to take the risk just to watch the spectacle; it's simply not worth it.
At the same time, people began to speculate about who had offended this person.
"Who is it that dares to provoke Zhang Jun in Chunfeng Tower? Isn't that courting death? Everyone knows that Chunfeng Tower is their stronghold, and they can summon countless people with a single call."
"Hey, these people are in big trouble today. They've offended Zhang Jun, who is no less powerful than Lei Yan, and his methods are even more ruthless. If his father weren't just a vice minister of the Ministry of Personnel, he would have turned the capital upside down."
"Do you think that young man did this because he didn't know Zhang Jun's identity, or was it intentional?"
"Deliberately? Are you crazy or am I crazy? There are only a handful of people in the capital who would dare to do something like this on purpose, just the sons of those high-ranking officials..."
The person who spoke earlier continued, "Didn't they say a young man came to the capital? He even had a fight with Lei Yan this morning..."
This statement was immediately interrupted by others.
"That mysterious person is indeed someone of great importance, to be treated as an honored guest by Cui Yuanzhao, which is truly rare."
"Yes, that's why we can't find a second person. Besides, if he really were that kid, would Zhang Jun dare to do this? Everyone knows that kid is a master of changing his tune. Every time he sees Lei Yan and Cui Yuanzhao, he acts all polite and courteous."
The discussion continues.
Zhang Jun was slightly displeased by the murmurs from the crowd.
He's not like Cui Yuanzhao, who enjoys being disliked by others.
"Shut up!"
Zhang Ling quickly noticed the change in her young master's emotions and shouted loudly, startling those around her.
The surroundings immediately fell silent, without the slightest sound.
Zhang Jun nodded slightly in satisfaction, quite pleased with the result.
He walked up to Tang Huan, his expression relaxed and content.
After lingering on Tang Huan and Li Daikui for a moment, he looked directly at Qin Yu.
Her eyes were bright and captivating, her lips were a delicate pinkish-red, and her figure was slender and graceful. Even though her clothes were not luxurious, she still possessed an undeniable beauty.
Zhang Jun completely ignored Tang Huan and Li Daikui, and asked Zhang Ling, "Is this the woman you found?"
"Yes, young master, you like it?" Zhang Ling couldn't contain her excitement.
If the young master is pleased, then there will be no further questions about this matter.
Otherwise, he would have to worry that the young master would resent him for being nosy.
As it turned out, Zhang Ling had a very thorough understanding of Zhang Jun, and Qin Yu did indeed attract Zhang Jun's attention.
"I'll give you a choice: apologize now, then get out of here immediately, and I can pretend nothing ever happened."
Zhang Jun's attention was entirely on Qin Yu, and he was too lazy to bother with anything else.
He now wished he could take Qin Yu away immediately and seize every moment.
If it weren't for so many people watching, he would have already pounced on him like a hungry wolf.
But he had to maintain his image in public, which made it somewhat difficult for him to endure.
Qin Yu fully perceived Zhang Jun's greedy gaze and felt a wave of disgust wash over him.
Qin Yu took a step back, clenched his hands behind his back, then loosened them, then clenched them again.
Zhang Jun brought more people than expected, and the opinions people had about him seemed to be correct. This was Zhang Jun's stronghold, and his group consisted of more than a dozen people.
Moreover, it's unknown whether there are other people lurking in the shadows.
Even Li Daikui became somewhat wary at this moment, and dared not act rashly for a while.
Qin Yu felt the same way. She couldn't help but look at Tang Huan, and could only place her hopes on this seemingly unreliable magistrate of Qihuai County.
Would a county magistrate oppose a vice minister of the Ministry of Personnel?
Based on Qin Yu's understanding, no.
Because doing so would be counterproductive.
Moreover, Tang Huan is a cautious person who would not do anything risky or without personal gain.
But he often does things that are hard to understand, which makes Qin Yu wonder what's going on.
She couldn't figure out what Tang Huan would do—whether she would take advantage of Zhang Jun's offer and leave, or whether she would suddenly launch an attack.
After Zhang Jun finished speaking, he did not receive a reply.
He realized that Tang Huan was the leader of the three, but he didn't have much intention of negotiating at the moment. He simply walked directly toward Qin Yu.
Without a word, Li Daikui took a step forward and blocked Qin Yu behind him.
This action also made Zhang Jun stop.
"very good!"
Zhang Jun narrowed his eyes and sneered. The burly Li Daikui in front of him made Zhang Jun feel a moment of fear, but it did not stop him from taking action.
Sensing the other party's malice, Li Daikui immediately looked at Tang Huan, seeking advice.
Should we fight or run?
Upon closer inspection, it became clear that Tang Huan was silently watching Zhang Jun, showing no intention of speaking.
"Young master, he was the one who hit us just now..."
Zhang Ling complained to Zhang Jun.
"This person is very skilled; we must be careful."
Zhang Jun glanced at Li Daikui, only to meet Li Daikui's fierce gaze, which startled him.
Zhang Jun tried his best to remain calm, and waved his hand, saying, "Dare to look at me like that? Gouge his eyes out."
A rustling sound rang out, and the people behind immediately stepped forward.
A major war is about to begin.
