This year's New Year's Eve was the most unforgettable one for Zhou Yi.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Zhou Yi had just returned to Yi Mansion when the phone rang.
She put down what she was holding and walked over to pick up the phone. She thought it was Yun Gaofei calling, but it turned out to be—
"Happy New Year, Miss Zhou." The voice coming from the microphone was Long Yan's.
"Mr. Long?" Zhou Yi suppressed his expression. Long Yan calling him on New Year's Day was most likely not a good thing. "Mr. Long, you called me just to say Happy New Year, didn't you?"
"Ms. Zhou, don't be nervous. It's the first day of the new year. I really just want to call you to say Happy New Year. By the way, I want to tell you that I have prepared a New Year gift for you. I guess you will receive it soon." Long Yan said with a forced smile.
"Oh? The New Year gift from Mr. Long must be a big gift." Zhou Yi said.
"Miss Zhou gave our Long family such a generous New Year's gift before the New Year. I feel embarrassed to give her a return gift if it's not of a certain value." Long Yan said through clenched teeth.
Originally, his grandfather had been forced by Su Wenzhi to fake his death to escape and had been hiding in the dark for more than ten years. Now, he was forced by the Su family and Zhou Yi to have nowhere to hide in the dark. In addition, the deployment of the Long family in Gangcheng was exposed, which caused a lot of trouble.
Since the end of the year, Long Yan has been dealing with these troubles and has to find a way to get out of them again for his grandfather.
All this was thanks to the Su family and Zhou Yi. Whenever he thought about it, he regretted not killing Zhou Yi a few months ago.
Long Yan knew that Zhou Yi was excellent, but today, he had to admit that he had underestimated Zhou Yi.
Although he knew that she was excellent, he had initially thought that Zhou Yi was just a woman and could not make any big waves. Now, Long Yan was regretting his original thoughts.
If Zhou Yi had been eliminated in Shen Ning a few months ago, not only would the Long family not be facing all these troubles now, but according to the original plan, the Su family would most likely have been eliminated by them.
Thinking of this, Long Yan felt very annoyed and lit a cigarette.
"Then let me say thank you first. I believe the New Year gift from Mr. Long must be very interesting." Zhou Yi replied.
She was prepared. The Long family would not let them have a smooth Spring Festival. Zhou Yi was already satisfied to be able to spend an unforgettable New Year's Eve with her family safely. Next, no matter what tricks Long Yan came up with, Zhou Yi would follow suit.
"It seems that Miss Zhou is also very confident when facing our Long family." Long Yan narrowed his eyes.
"Mr. Long, you're joking. Compared to the Long family, which has been expanding its sphere of influence over the past decade, our Su family has been in mourning for more than a decade because my father was separated from my family when I was young and then my grandfather was murdered. The Su family has been standing still. How can we be compared with your Long family?" Zhou Yi said this seemingly in a self-deprecating manner, but in fact, she was expressing that she remembered everything the Long family had done to the Su family.
This debt will have to be repaid sooner or later.
"I feel sorry for the Su family. They have been stuck for more than ten years. It must be very difficult for them to survive, right?" Long Yan's tone was full of disdain and provocation.
"Yes, after the attack fifteen years ago, the Su family has indeed been just trying to stay alive. If even the hope of living is threatened, then they can only fight back desperately. There is no other way." Zhou Yi hit back.
Of course, she understood Long Yan's intention. He wanted to destroy the Su family like he did in his previous life? It all depended on whether he and the Long family had the ability to do so.
"Ms. Zhou, there is one thing I have never understood. After all, you have not grown up in the Su family for the past fifteen years. The Su family didn't even have the ability to protect you back then. Now you have grown up, you have the ability and resources, so why bother to get involved in the Su family's grievances?" Long Yan said instigatingly.
"Don't worry about that, Mr. Long," Zhou Yi said.
"It's not a big deal, but I feel a little sorry for Miss Zhou. She hasn't been raised by the Su family, so why should she bear the grudges and hatred of the Su family?" Long Yan continued to provoke.
"Mr. Long, it seems that you can handle the affairs of your grandfather and Gangcheng with ease. You even have the mind and time to take care of the relationship between me and the Su family." Zhou Yi said with a smile.
Long Yan is worthy of being the heir brought up by Long Yingnian. He knows very well how to exploit the weaknesses of human nature. If the Su family recognized the original owner, he would probably be sold out by him and would happily count money for him.
"I admire Miss Zhou's talent very much. If she dies because of it, I will really feel sorry for you," said Long Yan.
"It seems that Mr. Long is sure of victory. Is the Long family so confident that they can destroy the Su family?" Zhou Yi's smile did not reach his eyes.
"Tsk~ It's certainly not easy to destroy the Su family, but the Long family is still confident that they can make Miss Zhou's kindness disappear." Seeing that Zhou Yi was not to be provoked, Long Yan threatened.
"So it turns out that it's Meiyi that Mr. Long dislikes? To make Meiyi disappear, it depends on whether you have the ability to do so." Zhou Yi replied.
Zhou Yi certainly knew that the Long family would definitely target Meiyi next. After all, the Su family's business developed by Su Mingzhe over the years was probably something the Long family couldn't even find out about. Years ago, the Long family failed in their attempt to target her second uncle and her father. If they wanted to make another move, it would be very difficult. After all, her second uncle's position was not low, and they couldn't just take action whenever they wanted.
In addition, the police are keeping a close eye on the Long family now. If they want to take action against the Su family, they will probably be caught before they can even do anything.
The only thing the Long family can do is to show their good intentions.
"Ms. Zhou, if you do something, you must bear the corresponding consequences. I don't need to say more about this." Long Yan said in a serious tone.
After listening to this, Zhou Yi smiled and said, "Mr. Long, don't you think this statement is very suitable for the Long family? Some things are done and there will always be traces to follow. They will not be forgotten as time passes. Our Su family is just seeking justice."
"It seems that Miss Zhou is determined to make things difficult for my Long family. Don't blame me then," said Long Yan.
"Mr. Long, it's your Long family that has been taking action. Fifteen years ago it was your grandfather, and now it's you. Back then, my grandfather didn't expose the Long family's escape attempt out of consideration for their old friendship, and ended up losing his life. Now, is there anything the Long family can escape from?" Zhou Yi replied.
"In that case, Miss Zhou, please check your New Year's gifts." Long Yan said and hung up the phone.
Zhou Yi put down the microphone and looked towards the naked garden, wondering where Long Yan would start to attack Meiyi. Since the Long family had the main rights to Chen Ning Meiyi, it would be too easy for them to do anything.
However, changing his thinking, if something really happened to Shen Ningmeiyi, Zhou Yi felt that it might not be a bad thing.
Zhou Yi was thinking when the phone rang again. She picked up the receiver and heard Yun Feng's anxious voice: "Xiao Yi, something happened."
