," Cold Ice said coldly. As long as this rascal didn't leave, she would make him work hard for a whole night. Her house was in a mess after being searched by that group of people from the disciplinary...Chapter 1234: Taking Themselves Too Seriously
"Are you really going there to beat someone up" Ma Ting was a bit at a loss for words, "There will definitely be many people there like us. I think even the police might go as well."
Summer lazily replied, "I wish they would come too." Then she dragged Gu Hanchuang out of the room.
Ma Ting and Xu Qianqian exchanged a glance and said almost in unison, "Shall we go with you as well"
Henceforth, Ma Ting and Xu Qianqian, along with their boyfriends, followed Summer to Shu Capital Square. As for Zhang Mingtuo and others, since they were older, they seemed less interested in such matters. Additionally, Xu Qianqian's parents still worried about causing trouble, so even though they left the hotel quickly too, they went home instead.
In the same time, Jing City.
In Wind Mountain Pavilion, Yue Zhi Feng was once again playing chess with himself.
"Old Yue, no matter how well you play chess, it's all just talking on paper. You might as well stop playing."
The sudden call made Yue Zhi Feng's face turn a bit difficult. 'Old Yue' This nickname was the first time he had heard. What made him even more angry was that the other party didn't seem to have any politeness in their tone at all!
Yue Zhi Feng put down the chess pieces in his hand and turned to look at the door, but quickly regained his composure. He gave a faint smile to the visitor: "It's公子趙讓你來的嗎?"
(Note: The last sentence is left untranslated as it appears to be incomplete or incorrectly formatted in the original text.)
The person who came turned out to be Zhao Xiaozhuo, the young master whose reputation had recently been rising in Jing City. He swaggered into the room and sat down opposite Yue Zhi Feng: "Old Yue, I came here on my own accord, not because of my older brother. I just wanted to talk to you."
"Young Master Zhao, Gong Zi once told me about you. He said that he had a very outstanding younger brother. However, judging from your current behavior, it seems like his words might have been exaggerated or perhaps he failed to teach you even the most basic courtesies!" Yue Zhi Feng's expression turned cold again; clearly, Zhao Xiaozuo’s repeated use of "Old Yue" was finally too much for him.
Zhao Xiaozuo seemed completely indifferent: "I call you Old Yue as a favor. My older brother izeli is always polite to everyone, but I’m different—I don’t play these formal games with people. If your grandfather were here, I would respectfully address him as Grandpa Yue because he’s someone who deserves respect. As for you, calling you Old Yue is actually me showing you some respect; otherwise, I’d just call you by your name, Yue Zhi Feng."
Yue Zhi Feng's face darkened even more: "Young Master Zhao, since you think this way, then let me tell you that my Wind and Cloud Pavilion doesn’t welcome you. Please leave immediately and take a message to your older brother—I’m very disappointed in him!"
"You’re very disappointed in my older brother" Zhao Xiaozuo smiled. "Old Yue, actually, my older brother is quite disappointed in you too. He thought that you were someone of true substance, but unfortunately, he was wrong. Now he realizes that you are just an ordinary man who disregards the bigger picture for personal gain."
After a brief pause, Zhao Xiaozhuo continued, "Oh right, Old Yue, I should tell you something. My big brother has already left Jingcheng. No, his departure isn’t just a short trip for tourism or business; it’s a long-term move. It’ll be at least three to five years before he returns. From now on, there won’t be any more Great Young Master Zhao in Jingcheng—only little old me here."
“Is that so” Yue Zhifeng sneered. "This might be news for the other clans of Jingcheng, but I doubt it’s a big deal to your Zhao family. If Public Official Mu knew about what you did on his first day away, he would definitely regret leaving."
"Old Yue, Old Yue, your biggest problem is always thinking too highly of yourself," said Zhao Xiaozhuo with a shake of his head. "Do you really think that everyone in Jingcheng calls you ‘Senior Yue’ just to be polite You’re mistaken; they do it out of respect for Grandpa Yue and also because they know my big brother owes you several favors. If anything happens to you, he’ll most likely come to your aid."
“Young Master Zhao,” said Yue Zhifeng coldly, “you may leave now!”
"Old Yue, whether I should leave or not is my decision. When I’m ready to go, I will go. You can’t force me out no matter how hard you try. Don’t believe me Try it and see if anyone dares to kick me out at your command." Zhao Xiaozhuo remained seated in his relaxed posture. He then adopted a comforting tone, continuing: "But don’t worry too much about that, Old Yue. I won’t stay here long. After I’m done with what I have to say, I’ll be on my way. This place isn’t really worth staying around for. Your taste truly is rather poor!"
Yue Zhifeng's face turned ashen, but he didn't say anything. He also didn't call for people to come and drive Zhao Xiaozhuo away because he knew that Zhao Xiaozhuo was right; even his trusted subordinates wouldn’t dare take action against Zhao Xiaozhuo.
"Old Yue, there you go! Actually, I came here today to tell you two things," Zhao Xiaozhuo appeared very pleased. "The first thing is that my big brother no longer owes you any favors. Old Yue, back then you were quite smart; you knew that you would eventually be inferior to my big brother, so you stepped down and handed over the position proactively. You got some favors from my big brother in return, but things have changed now. Although my big brother still owes you three favors, it's thanks to him that you're still alive today—more accurately, it's due to the efforts of my sister. That summer fellow took my sister as his wife, so he promised her not to kill you; otherwise, you'd be dead by now. In short, we Zhao Family and Old Yue no longer owe each other anything!"
"Young Master Zhao, I can tell you that even without the Zhao Family, I am still Yue Zhifeng," said Yue Zhifeng coldly.
"Hmm, secondly, Old Yue, since you had people use a missile to try and get rid of my brother-in-law and also tried to eliminate my sister's husband, how do you plan on settling this" Zhao Xiaozhuo asked indolently.
Yue Zhifeng remained expressionless, his tone still cold: "Young Master Zhao, I have no idea what you are talking about."
"Old Yue, that's no fun. A man should be willing to take responsibility for what he does. Do you really think everyone is unaware of your actions" Zhao Xiaozhuo looked a bit unhappy, "Do you actually believe anyone would buy the story about some pilot suddenly going mad and defecting, then turning around and trying to shoot down an airliner just because it happened to be Summer's special plane I suggest you ask yourself who doesn’t know this was your doing"
"Young Master Zhao, please refrain from making unfounded accusations," Yue Zhi Feng coldly retorted.
“Hmm, I understand you won't admit it. But don’t worry; I didn’t expect you to. Still, I wanted you to know that everyone is aware of what happened, and Changfang is under a lot of pressure as well. By the way, Old Yue, are you unaware how serious your defection would be for Changfang You've dealt them a huge blow this time around; they won't do anything to you now, but do you think they will continue to respect you in the future" Zhao Xiaozhuo shook his head while he spoke, "Old Yue, Old Yue, you're pushing away those who could help you one by one. I fear it won’t be long before everyone abandons you. By the way, if Grandpa Yue passes on… well, your fate will likely follow shortly after. So, you should hope Grandpa Yue lives for several more years.”
The look on Yue Zhi Feng's face became even harder to bear, but Zhao Xiaozhuo didn’t give him a chance to respond and continued: "Oh right, Old Yue, I just remembered something unfortunate for you. Grandpa Yue is nearly a hundred years old; he’s still alive because of someone, the person named Yi Xiaoyin. She used to work for Summer. Uh-huh, she's gone now. Do you think Yi Xiaoyin will help you Who else can assist Grandpa Yue besides her Well, there was another one who worked for Summer too. But just before he could be of any assistance, you almost shot him down with a missile, didn’t you Old Yue, Old Yue, you really leave me speechless!"
Shaking his head, Zhao Xiaozhuo stood up and walked towards the door: "Since there's nothing left to say, I guess it’s better not to. Old Yue, take your own path from now on. If you're smart, leave Jingcheng for good; that way, you might still manage a peaceful second half of your life. Otherwise... well, you know what will happen!"
Zhao Xiaozhuo quickly disappeared through the door, while Yue Zhifeng's expression grew increasingly gloomy. In the end, he suddenly pushed the table in front of him with great force, causing the chess pieces to scatter all over the ground.
Shudu Square was the most famous leisure square in Shud City, usually filled with many people. Now it was even more crowded as reality began to mirror the online world; although not everyone on Weibo would come to watch in person, there were still quite a few who had both the time and interest to do so. At this moment, many people were rushing to Shudu Square just like Xia Tian.
Those heading for the square weren't just excited crowds but also various media reporters, who naturally wouldn't miss such an important event. Moreover, there were also police forces arriving on the scene; with numerous police cars parked nearby, it made many people worried if this Weibo challenge would end prematurely due to police intervention.
"Here he comes! Xia Tian's arrived…" As soon as Xia Tian reached Shudu Square, some people started shouting excitedly. Although these individuals had mostly only seen pictures of Xia Tian before, the obvious distinguishing mark beside him was Gu Hanshuang, the stunning Taoist priestess, making it easy for them to spot Xia Tian right away.er tried again to take advantage of Mu Han, but Summer kicked him away before he could finish his sentence. This man flew out onto the street and fell heavily onto the ground, losing consciousness.Mu...
