Chapter 1038: How ostentatious you want to be
Dayao City was shaken!
In a short period of time, the forces headed by the Small Knife Society suffered a devastating blow. Those who should be arrested were arrested, those who should be executed were executed, and those who should be sentenced were sentenced.
The whole process was so fast that it gave no chance for any of the parties to react.
As for the burning of Wanghai Tower and the killing of members of the Xiaodao Society, they were inexplicably ignored and no one mentioned it again.
As one family grew stronger, the other declined, and the Zhu family began to rise.
From being faced with difficulties at every turn, it suddenly became very popular, with many projects getting the green light and being kept on the right track.
Various financial crises such as debts and receivables were quickly resolved, and the banks began to change their attitude and became extremely generous.
"Lei Zhen, thank you! Thank you!"
Zhu Hongyan thanked Lei Zhen and was so moved that she didn't know what to say.
"How do you want to thank me?"
“Tea tree oil?”
"So good! Hahaha..."
After seeing the man's ability, Zhu Hongyan had no reservations at all. As long as he liked her, she would do anything.
"Let's go to the Zhu Family Ancestral Hall tomorrow and make a big show of it."
"All the core members of the Zhu family went out to welcome them, and a red carpet was rolled out for ten miles. It's as ostentatious as it can be. Can you do it?"
Lei Zhen was preparing to go to the Zhu Family Ancestral Hall in the most high-profile manner.
"I need to call home, but I don't know if it will work." Zhu Hongyan said with some embarrassment: "After all, I am a woman, and a married woman at that. This kind of thing is not for me to decide."
It's also true that a daughter who is married off is like water spilled.
Although she can represent the Zhu family outside, this kind of thing is really not something she can decide. She must know her family well.
"You are only responsible for making the call and stating my identity. Don't worry about anything else."
"Okay, I'll call right away."
“…”
This is very abrupt and inappropriate.
Considering Lei Zhen's social skills, this approach was a bit too much, but he had to do so because it depended on the Zhu family's attitude.
After all, he has nothing to do with the Zhu family. It's just that he is involved in Little Red Fish's true identity.
If the Zhu family dares to gamble, Lei Zhen will support them; if the Zhu family does not dare to gamble, there is no need to pour resources into them.
At most, we are relatives, and relatives should help each other if possible, but that is the limit.
Lei Zhen’s warship is full of gamblers, and there is no room for honest people.
"Dad, I'm Hongyan. Our sudden change has something to do with someone. He's Hongyu's husband..."
"who?"
"Hongyu, Zhu Hongyu, the daughter of my third uncle."
"Are you sure it's Ruby?"
"I'm sure, and I've seen the identification."
"Where are the people? Where is Hongyu?!"
“…”
The call was made without facing Lei Zhen's back, and the speakerphone was even on, so one could clearly hear the excitement of the person on the other end of the line.
"I don't know where Hongyu is, but my brother-in-law is with me. The recent sudden changes in the situation are all caused by my brother-in-law. He is Lei Zhen."
"who?"
"Lei Zhen, Hui'an Lei Zhen."
“…”
The shock on the other end of the phone was beyond words. First, they found the third brother's child, and second, they heard that Hui'an Lei Zhen was actually Hongyu's husband.
"Hongyan, don't be fooled. How could Lei Zhen be Hongyu's husband? This is a bit strange. Your cousin suddenly appeared, and Hui'an Lei Zhen also appeared."
"As far as I know, Lei Zhen is already dead. I know your personality well, and you are easily deceived, so this matter needs to be carefully considered."
"Dad, it's really Lei Zhen. Otherwise, who could have wiped out the Xiaodao Society and made President An completely change his attitude? Tomorrow I'll bring Lei Zhen to the ancestral hall. He needs everyone to welcome him. A red carpet will be rolled out for ten miles, and he'll be welcomed with the highest family etiquette..."
After finishing the call, Zhu Hongyan let out a long breath and looked at the man beside her with complicated eyes, as if she understood what he was thinking.
Everything depends on whether the Zhu family takes it seriously, or more precisely, whether they dare to go all out.
Although she guessed it, she didn't say it out loud because what would happen next was beyond her, Zhu Hongyan's control.
"Don't overthink it. The Zhu family is the Zhu family, and you are you." Lei Zhen said with a smile, "You can't decide their choice, and neither can I, but at least we give them a chance."
He could tell what Zhu Hongyan was thinking at a glance, and he was too lazy to pretend to be profound. He also wanted to see if the other party would secretly tell the Zhu family what he would say next.
After all, the little red goose is really well-behaved, so it’s safer to leave it next to the red fish.
"I won't support the Zhu family for no reason. I must have some ulterior motive. After all, I'm not familiar with the Zhu family. If it's just because of Little Red Fish, it's really far-fetched."
"To put it simply, if the Zhu family is willing to board my ship, they will definitely become the leader of the hidden family; if they are unwilling to board my ship, they will also receive certain care, at least they will not be as miserable as they are now."
"The choice is theirs. After all, this is a huge gamble. If they win, they will regain their leadership position; if they lose, I'm afraid the Zhu family will be completely eliminated..."
It is not that easy to get on Lei Zhen’s boat. The first condition is that you have to be willing to gamble all your fortune and accept the consequences of losing.
For the Zhu family, they were being killed as an example to warn the others. Although their lives were difficult, they were not expelled from the family.
But if you choose Lei Zhen, it would be considered a rebellion for some people. If you fail, you won't even be able to achieve what you have now.
At that time, we will have to face a genocidal purge.
Since the lives of hundreds of family members are at stake, they must consider it carefully.
"But your fate is to break away from the Zhu family, because tea tree oil is very effective." Lei Zhen smiled and said, "I can't give you anything, but at least I can give you stability."
This is his attitude. He will never treat any woman who has been with him unfairly, even if it is just a fleeting moment.
"Thunder..."
"That's my decision, needless to say."
His tone was calm, but full of arrogance, because this matter could not be resolved by Zhu Hongyan's pleading, he had his own ideas.
"I'm going out for a while and won't be home for dinner."
"Are you coming back to sleep?"
"It depends on whether you want me to come back and sleep, hahaha..."
Zhu Hongyan sent Lei Zhen out the door, then stood at the window and watched him get into the car and leave, with a look of confusion in her beautiful eyes.
She picked up the phone and dialed her father's number.
When his finger was about to press the dial button, he pulled it back.
After repeating this action several times, he finally gave up, put his phone away, and suppressed the urge to tell his family what Lei Zhen had said.
Perhaps in her opinion, the Zhu family did have to make a difficult choice.
If you make the right choice, everything will be fine; if you make the wrong choice, you may fall into a bottomless abyss.
Isn’t this also true for the Zhu Family Ancestral Hall?
After receiving the call, the core members of the Zhu family rushed to the ancestral hall and sat together to discuss the matter, because it was of great importance.
It’s not about the rise and fall of the family, it’s about the survival of the family!
