Chu Hongcai also recovered from his previous daze and looked at Zu An in surprise. He thought to himself that this guy was really bold. He wasn't afraid that the young lady would hear these words. Even if the young lady didn't care, his uncle and aunt certainly wouldn't sit idly by.
Having just received his help while standing on the same side of the trench, the two brothers didn't want to cause trouble at this moment. They simply moved aside quietly to avoid being caught in the crossfire of the angry audience.
The most excited of all was Wesso: "That's my deskmate and older brother, you know?"
"You know, he's won over half of the top ten beauties in our school. What's Qiu Honglei compared to him?"
He vividly described Zuan's various "womanizing" exploits at school, leaving everyone around him stunned.
It's probably one of a kind that a son-in-law has taken to this level.
Seeing the shocked looks on their faces, Veso seemed to feel proud and became even more enthusiastic in his commentary.
...
Hearing the indignant words around him, Zuan paid no attention, instead silently watching the increase in his anger level.
I thought to myself, "Go ahead and curse me. The harsher you curse, the angrier I get."
Qiu Honglei's smile froze. The usually eloquent and charming Qiu Honglei was momentarily at a loss for words. After a long while, she gave an awkward laugh and said, "Today, we've invited you gentlemen to appreciate the music. We can talk about other things later."
As she spoke, her eyebrows curved slightly, the corners of her lips turned up, and her eyes sparkled with allure; she was truly captivating.
The people around them were completely captivated, and they all chimed in with agreement:
"That's right. If someone doesn't understand music, we should find someone else and humbly listen to others' opinions."
"Miss Qiu, don't waste your time on this kind of person."
...
Meanwhile, many people are curious: wasn't the red-haired man trying to kill him? Why did he remain silent after hearing the other person's name?
It seems they are wary of the Chu family's background.
Hmph, all he does is shout loudly; deep down he's a coward.
At this moment, Chen Xuan gathered his men together: "Did you understand what I just said?"
"Understood!" The subordinates all showed excitement.
You have to understand that they were originally ruthless bandits, used to acting freely and vengefully. But after entering the city, they were restricted in their actions and were already feeling restless.
Looking at the dazzling and extravagant Shenxianju, and those beautiful young women, everyone felt their blood boiling.
If I pull off this job, I'll definitely enjoy the good life for years to come.
"If you understand, then go do what you're supposed to do." Chen Xuan waved his hand, quietly dismissing his men.
A pair of sinister eyes were fixed on Zu'an in the distance, and a sinister smile appeared on his lips: "It's truly a case of searching high and low without finding it, only to have it come to you effortlessly. Brother, today I will avenge you."
It turns out that he and Mei Chaofeng were brothers. In their early years, the Shi family arranged for them to live in hiding. One of them ran an underground force in Mingyue City, while the other acted as a ruthless bandit outside the city, robbing and killing passing merchants.
Over the years, the two brothers have made a fortune for the Shi family, and the Shi family has agreed to reduce their income by half a percent next year as a reward for their contributions.
Although half a percent may sound small, the wealth that passes through their hands is astronomical; half a percent is already quite a lot.
Just when the two brothers were about to reach the pinnacle of their lives, a Zuan suddenly appeared.
This caused his brother's once-lucrative gambling den to decline, and the Plum Blossom Gang also collapsed.
Even more unacceptable is that Mei Chaofeng was actually killed!
The two brothers were orphans who had relied on each other since childhood. Their relationship was much closer than that of ordinary brothers, so when he heard that his younger brother had died, his first reaction was to seek revenge.
Unfortunately, Jiang Luofu was someone he couldn't afford to offend, either in terms of her status or her cultivation level.
He could only target Zaun, since he was the one who caused all of this.
Initially, because Shi Kun came to Mingyue City and promised to help him deal with Zuan, he remained inactive.
Who knew that not long after leaving the secret realm, Shi Kun would leave without a word.
Because Shi Lezhi was dead, and because there might be a ninth-rank master by Zu An's side, Shi Kun returned to the capital in a sorry state, naturally too embarrassed to make a fuss.
Chen Xuan was unaware of these things. In his view, it was because his brothers were of low status and their lives were not taken seriously by those in power.
So since Shi Kun wouldn't help him get revenge, he'd do it himself.
Over the years, he has always been ruthless and cruel. Anyone who has seen his face has been silenced, so he has no concern about revealing his identity by entering the city.
I was originally planning to take the brothers to relax at this courtesan convention first, and then go to the Chu family to scout out and plan my revenge. Who knew I'd be so lucky and run into Zu'an here!
So he decisively moved the operation forward, letting the guy have his fun for now, knowing he'd be in for a world of trouble later.
Chen Xuan's anger level increased by 631!
He received another angry message. Zuan glanced at him subtly, seemingly lost in thought.
"Was the piece I just played so terrible that Young Master Zu had no thoughts at all?" Seeing him suddenly fall silent, Qiu Honglei looked at him pitifully.
