Xia Ruo?
Upon hearing this name, Zhou Jiaxing's expression faltered, and she abruptly turned her gaze to Zhou Heng.
At this moment, Zhou Heng's expression also became somewhat strange.
Xia Ruo?
The Xia family?
Zhou Heng certainly knew about the Xia family, but there was one thing he couldn't understand: what was the Xia family's purpose in coming here? Were they here for Lu Zheng?
Logically speaking, Lu Zheng is actually just a minor character. How could someone like him possibly attract Xia Ruo's attention? That doesn't make sense.
Although the Xia family may not be as well-known as Jiang Lier's Jiang Group on the surface, and no one would know that there is such a family as the Xia family, it is precisely because their status is too high that the media is unaware of their existence.
This demonstrates just how enormous their influence truly is.
For a family like theirs, Lu Zheng was just an insignificant nobody. Under normal circumstances, a young master like Xia Ruo could be dealt with with just one phone call.
Why did I even go to all this trouble to come to this small city?
Zhou Heng truly lives up to his reputation as a seasoned veteran.
He wasn't too happy when he heard that Xia Ruo had come here.
On the other end of the phone, Li Gu's voice rang out again: "Now that we've come this far, Young Master Zhou, you should think this over carefully. If we want to deal with Lu Zheng, we need to win over every friend we have. Only when we have more friends will it be much easier for us to deal with him."
After saying that, Li Gu hung up the phone.
Li Gu knew that Zhou Jiaxing had been harboring deep hatred for Lu Zheng these past few days, keeping a close eye on his every move, waiting to deliver a fatal blow.
They share the same idea on this point.
However, after what happened to his son Li Jingxuan, Li Gu became much more somber. He no longer thinks about problems from the perspective of a boss, but rather from the perspective of a subordinate, trying to understand what his boss is thinking and what he wants to do.
In doing so, he found that his thinking had become much broader.
He knew that Zhou Jiaxing would definitely instigate his father to deal with Lu Zheng, and Ming Xiang was now the fuse for the whole incident.
In fact, people's mentality is very strange. The more unattainable something is, the more dependent they become on it, and the more they want to get it.
Now Zhou Jiaxing will definitely anger his father, which will allow his father to use his connections to deal with Lu Zheng.
At first, Li Gu just wanted to watch the show. If Xu Yue hadn't come to him, he would have stayed put for the time being and only made a move when the time was right.
However, Xu Yue's visit has disrupted this plan.
But he knew when to hang up and give people time.
Now he can just wait and see what happens.
Seeing that the phone call had ended, Zhou Jiaxing turned to his father and said, "Dad, what are the Xia family doing here? Xia Ruo and Xu Yue have always looked down on our Zhou family."
The Zhou family is far inferior to the Xia family, and Zhou Heng himself is aware of this.
He came here to talk about his son and Mingxiang's affairs, ultimately for the continued development of the Zhou family, but the Xia family doesn't need that.
Because they have already built a powerful group, it is now very difficult for this group to expand further; it has almost reached its peak.
What might seem like a huge leap forward to others is nothing to them, like a drop of water falling into the ocean.
Therefore, the Xia family doesn't actually need to maximize its interests now; it only needs to ensure that its current power remains intact.
Furthermore, Xia Ruo is not a lecherous person.
Zhou Heng and Xia Linyu both have a keen eye for people. They both saw that Xu Yue was a cunning woman, while Xia Ruo was quite devoted in matters of the heart. In addition, Xu Yue's scheming made Xia Ruo only have feelings for her and not pursue other women.
He must not have come here because of Ming Xiang; there must be another reason.
What could it be?
Has something happened to the Xia family?
Zhou Heng looked at Zhou Jiaxing and said, "Before we go find anyone else, you need to investigate whether Lu Zheng has changed in the past few days. Also, I'll try to put pressure on Lu Zheng using another method."
He needs to contact the bank to handle Lu Zheng's commercial loan.
Although Lu Zheng has money, cutting off his business loans would cause him considerable trouble.
Of course, whether Lu Zheng can resolve these issues is not important. Zhou Heng, the old fox, actually just wants to stir up trouble first.
As for the predicaments or harm that the people in the bank who would be doing things for him might face, none of that was within his consideration.
When other people get into trouble, it has nothing to do with him.
"Okay, I'll take care of it right away."
Zhou Jiaxing is much smarter than Li Jingxuan.
He does resemble his father quite a bit.
So far, he has basically suffered no losses. At most, he feels a little uncomfortable watching Lu Zheng and Ming Xiang's relationship progress further, but he has not suffered any financial loss whatsoever.
Jiang Lier and Zhou Mobei looked at each other in bewilderment.
After a moment, Zhou Mobei smiled and said, "Mr. Zhou, what can we do? Just tell us what to do, and we'll get it done for you."
Zhou Heng didn't actually care about these two people at all.
To the Zhou family, the two of them were simply hopelessly stupid.
Moreover, the reason why Mingxiang and Lu Zheng were able to get together was because these two idiots were doing those rotten things in private.
Everything started with them. If it were before, Zhou Heng would have dealt with the two of them first.
However, this did not mean that he intended to let the two go. It was just that after learning everything about Lu Zheng from his son, he knew that these two pawns might come in handy at any time, so he was not in a hurry to have any other thoughts about them.
From the moment he heard them talking, Zhou Heng felt disgusted, but the old fox was able to hide all his thoughts deep inside.
So when Zhou Mobei asked this question, he smiled slightly and said, "Well, to be honest, there's nothing I can do to help, but I don't really want to trouble the two of you."
Zhou Mobei is quite shrewd; how could he not want to trouble himself?
They'd be incredibly stupid to actually believe that's what this guy thinks.
So Zhou Mobei quickly said, "Mr. Zhou, you're joking. We're in the same boat now. What do you mean by 'troubling'? Besides, it's our honor to do things for you."
"Please feel free to ask if you need anything, and we'll take care of it for you."
Zhou Heng nodded: "If that's how you put it, then I'll be frank. I need you two to help me with something big, very important, and I can only feel at ease if I entrust it to the two of you."
