So when she saw Chu Ruolin, she didn't even let him speak. She immediately took his hand and acted like they were close.
"Ruolin, it's been a long time since I've seen you. Did you run into some trouble and come to Aunt Mei for help? Aunt Mei told you before that if you have any problems, you should come to Aunt Mei. Why don't you listen to me? This child, it's good that Aunt Mei was prepared and arranged all the manpower in advance."
Peng Meijie is already middle-aged, but because she takes good care of herself and as the head of the family, she no longer needs to do everything herself. She still looks like a young girl, but the noble and elegant temperament she exudes is a maturity that a young girl cannot possess.
In short, she gives off a very oppressive vibe.
Although Chu Ruolin and she were related, they hadn't met many times since childhood, and for a moment, Chu Ruolin was so captivated by her words that she forgot how to respond.
Judging from Peng Meijie's words, she already knew everything and had even made all the preparations, so what was there for her to say?
"Thank you, Aunt Mei..." Chu Ruolin could only manage to utter this one sentence.
"Good child, don't be polite. Tell Aunt Mei how things are going now, so that Aunt Mei can have a solution."
Peng Meijie's actions were so egregious that even Chu Wei, let alone Chu Ruolin, could not find anything wrong with them, and she had maintained control of the situation.
Upon hearing this, Chu Ruolin hurriedly recounted the entire story of how the Han family had brought people over.
Finally, he pleaded urgently, "Auntie Mei, my dad sent me to find you, please help me..."
Peng Meijie didn't waste any time with words, but by the time the two of them arrived with the Peng family members, they were still a step too late.
The two sides were locked in a fierce battle and were now at their wits' end.
Although Han Mingzhi brought more than a hundred men, Chu Wei had a geographical advantage. If a war of attrition were to break out, the Han family would not be able to sustain it.
Moreover, the two sides' fighters are roughly equal in strength, and both have suffered heavy losses.
"Han Lao Er, let me tell you clearly, your brother's death has absolutely nothing to do with me. You'd better take your men and get out of here right now, or don't blame me for being impolite," Chu Wei warned.
He was extremely unwilling to see the situation end in a lose-lose situation.
"Are you scared?" Han Mingzhi's voice was still full of provocation, but he had no intention of backing down.
"Han Lao Er!" Chu Wei's eyes were bloodshot.
This person is simply ungrateful; he won't listen to reason and will have to suffer the consequences!
However, Chu Wei soon realized why Han Mingzhi was so confident.
"Yinghuo!"
With Han Mingzhi's shout, a tall and slender figure appeared out of nowhere.
This was a young man who was somewhat thin but very well-built, with an air of scholarly refinement. He wore a white long robe, which was very elegant, with only a red belt tied around his waist, and he was holding a red folding fan in his hand.
As the autumn weather grew cooler, the folding fan created a considerable breeze. Despite his thin clothing, he exuded an air of refined elegance, seemingly unattainable...
Therefore, Chu Wei knew at a glance that this was a master.
Each family has a group of true masters, far more powerful than Hong Jiao. They cultivate martial arts, possess spiritual power, and are unlike ordinary people.
Chu Wei could tell that this man named Yinghuo was definitely a master from the Han family.
Unexpectedly, Han Mingzhi actually mobilized all the experts.
But thinking about it, it makes sense. He basically controls the Han family, so he can naturally get the Han family's experts to come. But Chu Wei is different. He's surrounded by people like Hong Jiao, while the real Chu family experts are all in the main family, not people he can mobilize.
Suddenly, Chu Wei felt immense pressure. Even ten Hong Jiaos might not be a match for Ying Huo, let alone the remnants of Chu Wei's army that Ying Huo was now facing.
He could win simply by standing there, without even having to fight.
"Han Mingzhi, how dare you!" Chu Wei practically bit his way out of his wits.
"Why wouldn't I dare?" Han Mingzhi asked, genuinely puzzled.
Chu Wei was completely speechless.
But Han Mingzhi was clearly well-prepared and fought with increasing ferocity. He didn't care at all how many casualties his men had suffered, because he held the real trump card in his hand.
Just as Han Mingzhi was about to order Yinghuo to rush forward, Chu Wei was ready to turn around and run away.
Although it was a sorry state, what could I do? Facing such a master, my own combat ability was quite average, not even comparable to ordinary thugs, let alone a family expert.
As long as the green hills remain, there's no worry about running out of firewood...
However, at this critical moment, a fierce female voice rang out—"Stop it, all of you!"
It was Peng Meijie. She brought Chu Ruolin and other members of the Peng family.
Peng Meijie's appearance was absolutely unexpected by Han Mingzhi. He looked at Chu Wei, then at Peng Meijie, and a meaningful expression appeared on his face.
"I didn't expect that the head of the Peng family had also gotten involved," Han Mingzhi said with a sneer.
Unlike Chu Wei, Peng Meijie was a person of high status and was not afraid of Han Mingzhi. However, when Han Mingzhi saw her, he would not dare to act rashly, even if he was not expected to be very polite.
"Don't talk nonsense, or I'll cut out your tongue! Han boy, with me here today, you won't get away with anything!"
The head of the family had an unstoppable aura, and Peng Meijie was a woman who was not inferior to men; her words were irrefutable.
Han Mingzhi was actually unwilling. If Peng Meijie hadn't suddenly intervened, he could have finished off Chu Wei. But now Peng Meijie had brought people with her, clearly trying to force him to return. If he continued to cause trouble, he would inevitably have to confront the Peng family as well.
This would definitely provoke dissatisfaction from all the families.
The Han family isn't tired of living yet, and Han Mingzhi isn't that stupid; he doesn't want to fight four against one.
It seems that Han Mingzhi has no choice but to give this "face" today, whether he wants to or not.
He pressed his tongue against one cheek and spoke in a tone that said, "Let's see how long you can hide. I'll come back sooner or later to take your life."
"Alright! Since Patriarch Peng has spoken, I must give him face." With that, Han Mingzhi called to the others, "Let's go."
Seeing that the Han family had all left, Chu Wei suddenly seemed to lose all his strength and almost collapsed to the ground. Fortunately, the people around him were quick to catch him and hurriedly helped him into the house.
It took me a while to recover.
"Auntie, we really owe you a lot this time."
Chu Wei drank the water Chu Ruolin poured for him, let out a long sigh, and stared at Peng Meijie with a particularly sincere, "grateful" look.
"Forget all that politeness, what are you planning to do?"
