Chapter 971: Incoming Call



Even if General Zhou hadn't said it, Zhou Yuanyuan could have guessed what he was going to say next. It must have been Zhang Jintao who had said something nonsense to General Zhou, which had angered him.

"Grandpa Zeng, don't worry. No matter what happens, nothing will happen to our family... I'm watching over it!" Zhou Yuanyuan comforted General Zhou. Indeed, even if General Zhou didn't say anything, Zhou Yuanyuan wouldn't leave her family alone. Forget about Zhang Jintao, even if a few He Jintao or Wang Jintao came, what would Zhou Yuanyuan be afraid of? Zhou Yuanyuan didn't want to kill, but that didn't mean she wouldn't kill. No matter who threatened her family's safety, Zhou Yuanyuan would definitely not leave them alone.

"Good, good! With your good great-granddaughter's words, even if Grandpa dies immediately, he can finally rest in peace." General Zhou looked at Zhou Yuanyuan with a pleased smile on his face. General Zhou knew Zhou Yuanyuan's identity as a cultivator and understood that Zhou Yuanyuan's abilities were enough to protect Zhou Zhixin and his family.

General Zhou isn't afraid of death; he's only afraid that his descendants will be humiliated after his death. He's still here, and yet a small-time jerk like Zhang Jintao dares to pounce on him? He even says Zhou Yuanyuan is irresponsible for the missing girl by not participating in the mission. Ugh! It wasn't his daughter, Yuanyuan, who abducted her. This isn't how the saying "the more capable, the more work" works. Even asking for help should be done with a proper attitude, right?

"Master, the young lady and the young master are all outstanding people, so you can rest assured!" Zhou Xi walked in from outside and advised.

Zhou Xi overheard some of the conversation between General Zhou and Zhou Yuanyuan from outside. It wasn't that he was eavesdropping intentionally, but rather that a cultivator's five senses were incredibly sensitive. Even though Zhou Xi didn't want to listen, the voices kept drilling into his ears.

Seeing General Zhou so upset, Zhou Xi hated Zhang Jintao to death. He also cursed Liu Jingye of the Liu family in his heart.

"Yes, our Jiasheng and Yuanyuan are both excellent. No one can compare to them." General Zhou finally smiled after hearing Zhou Xi's words. Although the Zhou family wasn't large, they were all elites, unlike other families, which often had a few unfilial descendants.

Just when Zhou Yuanyuan was about to persuade General Zhou to go upstairs to rest, the phone in the living room rang.

Zhou Xi answered the phone and immediately handed it to Zhou Yuanyuan after saying one sentence, "Miss, this is for you."

"Zhou Yuanyuan, help!" Zhou Yuanyuan answered the phone, and a wailing voice came from the phone.

General Zhou and Zhou Xi both stared at the microphone in Zhou Yuanyuan's hand. Zhou Xi's brows furrowed even more tightly.

"Who are you?" Zhou Yuanyuan was sure that she was not familiar with the voice on the phone.

"Zhou Yuanyuan, I'm Zhu Xiaojun, Zhu Xiaojuan's brother." Zhu Xiaojun only then remembered that he seemed not to have told Zhou Yuanyuan about his identity, and quickly added a sentence.

"What do you want from me?" Zhu Xiaojun? Zhou Yuanyuan's mind flashed to Zhu Xiaojun's ordinary face.

Among the three siblings of Zhu Xiaojuan, Commander Zhu Xiaojun is the most ordinary. It is said that he is the least favored in the Zhu family and is extremely despised by Zhu Xiangyang.

"Xiaojuan came out to the bar with me, and went to the bathroom half an hour ago and hasn't come back since. I asked the waiters here, and they all said they had never seen Xiaojuan. Zhou Yuanyuan, I know you have some skills, can you help me find Xiaojuan?" Zhu Xiaojun's voice was full of anxiety on the phone.

How could this happen? Didn't Zhu Xiaojuan go home? Zhou Yuanyuan saw Zhu Xiaojuan walk into the Zhu family's front door with her own eyes, and only then did Xiao Wang turn the car around. Zhu Xiaojuan and Zhou Yuanyuan had only been separated for an hour, so why was she out clubbing with Zhu Xiaojun again? Zhou Yuanyuan was stunned.

"Zhou Yuanyuan, excuse me, could you please help me find Xiaojuan? I know you and Xiaojuan get along well. If my mother knew that I lost Xiaojuan, she would beat me to death." Zhu Xiaojun's voice trembled a little, as if he was frightened by Zhu Xiaojuan's disappearance.

"Address?" Zhou Yuanyuan didn't waste time talking to Zhu Xiaojun and asked him directly where he was.

After a few seconds, Zhou Yuanyuan put down the phone and said to General Zhou, "Grandpa Zeng, please go upstairs and rest first! I'm going out for a while. Sister Xiaojuan seems to be in trouble. I'll go over to check."

"Yuanyuan, let Ah Xi go with you! It's already past ten o'clock." Zhu Xiaojun's voice was loud on the phone. When General Zhou heard the words "Qingxin Bar", he couldn't help but frowned.

General Zhou did not have a good impression of Zhu Xiaojun.

Zhu Xiaojun is Zhu Xiangyang's eldest son and grandson. If he had made progress, everything in the Zhu family would have belonged to him. But for some reason, Zhu Xiaojun, who was neither good at literature nor martial arts, refused to follow the path Zhu Xiangyang had arranged for him to become a civil servant. Instead, he went to work as a salesman in a state-owned factory.

Zhu Xiaojun works as a salesman and often travels all over the country. Even in Kyoto, Zhu Xiaojun can't stay at home and goes to places like bars as soon as it gets dark.

Two years ago, the father of a girl came to Zhu Xiaojun and said that Zhu Xiaojun had played with his daughter's feelings. The girl was so upset that she almost committed suicide by jumping into the water, so she came to Zhu Xiaojun to seek justice.

Zhu Xiaojun stiffened his neck and refused to admit it, saying that he had done nothing and that the man had slandered him.

Zhu Xiangyang didn't want his grandson to suffer an injustice, so he secretly sent someone to investigate and found out that everything the girl's father said was true. Zhu Xiangyang was so angry that he brandished his cane and chased Zhu Xiaojun around the courtyard to beat him. Zhu Xiaojun screamed in pain, but he still refused to change his words and admit his fault.

This incident made Zhu Xiaojun famous in the compound. Although no one said it out loud, everyone still looked down on Zhu Xiaojun in their hearts. Families with daughters would secretly warn them not to get too close to Zhu Xiaojun.

General Zhou had just finished listening to Zhang Jintao's story about the "missing girl case" tonight and was feeling uneasy. Zhu Xiaojun called to say that Zhu Xiaojuan had disappeared and asked Zhou Yuanyuan for help.

General Zhou actually didn't want Zhou Yuanyuan to go out so late. Although Zhou Yuanyuan was very strong in fighting, General Zhou always unconsciously regarded Zhou Yuanyuan as a little girl who needed the protection of her family, not to mention that Zhou Yuanyuan was going to see Zhu Xiaojun so late.

"Grandpa Zeng, let Grandpa Xi stay at home with you! Just let Xiao Wang take me there." Zhou Yuanyuan didn't want Zhou Xi to leave General Zhou. Without the Qiankun Mirror, the security around General Zhou was not strong enough. With Zhou Xi protecting General Zhou closely, Zhou Yuanyuan could feel more at ease.

Thinking of Qiankunjing, Zhou Yuanyuan was furious. After accepting her wages—a Soul Water Candy—Qiankunjing was supposed to be under Zhou Yuanyuan's command for three years. But a few days ago, Qiankunjing insisted that he had something to attend to and asked Zhou Yuanyuan for a few days' leave. Without waiting for Zhou Yuanyuan's consent, Qiankunjing disappeared without a trace and has not returned to this day.
