Chapter 397: 397Xun Zheng was stunned.
He wasnāt foolish; he understood immediately.
Zhou Yu wasnāt done killing; he wanted to continue provoking the higher-ups of the Letian Association.
What on earth was he trying to do?
Xun Zhengās mind was filled with fear.
"What? Do I need to ask you a second time?"
Zhou Yuās icy voice instantly snapped Xun Zheng back to reality.
He quickly nodded.
"No, no, no, thereās no need; I will listen to everything Mr. Zhou says."
Xun Zheng couldnāt care less by that point; he knew that the conflict between Zhou Yu and the Letian Association was far beyond what a small fry like him could interfere with. His only concern now was to save his own life.
Tong Yingziās office.
Qin Lan paced anxiously back and forth in the office, holding a mobile phone in her hand. The phoneās screen displayed a stopwatch timer.
Ever since Zhou Yu had left, she had started timing.
Eight minutes had passed by now.
"Why hasnāt Zhou Yu messaged me yet?"
"Could something have happened to him?"
Tong Yingzi looked unimpressed beside her.
If she hadnāt seen it with her own eyes, she couldnāt have imagined there was a man in this world who could make Qin Lan act this way.
She tried to soothe her
"Lanlan, donāt worry, heās only been gone a few minutes."
"I canāt wait, Iām going up to check now."
As Qin Lan spoke, she rushed towards the door.
Tong Yingziās expression drastically changed, and she immediately ran after her to stop her.
Just as Qin Lan was about to reach for the door, suddenly, the office door opened.
Qin Lan couldnāt stop in time and burst out the door.
Tong Yingzi, who was behind her, also tripped, following her down.
At that moment, Zhou Yu was baffled.
He had come downstairs to enter Tong Yingziās office, and just as he opened the door, he saw two people rushing out.
He instinctively reached out to catch them.
"Ahā"
Qin Lan and Tong Yingzi both let out a shrill scream, stepping back with their hands over their chests.
Zhou Yu quickly stepped back and raised his hands in a gesture of innocence.
"I... didnāt mean to!"
Qin Lan initially looked furious, but when she saw it was Zhou Yu, she immediately hurried forward and asked with concern.
"Zhou Yu, are you alright?"
Zhou Yu shook his head,
"Iām fine."
"Didnāt I say before I left, āIāll be right backā?"
"See, I didnāt lie to you."
Qin Lan glanced at the stopwatch on her phone, which now read nine and a half minutes.
"Hmph, you had me worried for so long."
Qin Lan pouted.
"You owe me."
"Okay, okay." Zhou Yu hastily agreed.
Meanwhile, Tong Yingzi was fuming with her face flushed.
She had been accidentally grabbed inappropriately, and not only did no one apologize, but she was also left out of the loop.
She was both embarrassed and angry, yet also filled with shock.
Zhou Yu had actually come back down.
How did he manage that?
While Tong Yingzi was bewildered, Xun Zheng also came downstairs.
Tong Yingzi quickly said,
"President Xun!"
Xun Zheng thought Zhou Yu had left, but to his surprise, Zhou Yu was in Tong Yingziās office.
He hurried over.
"Mr. Zhou, you... havenāt left yet?."
Zhou Yu glanced at him.
"What? You want me to leave that badly?"
Xun Zheng quickly waved his hands.
"No, no, Mr. Zhou, you must be joking. Of course, I welcome you here."
Zhou Yu smiled faintly.
"Is that so?"
"I think this place of yours is quite nice too, not inferior to the Nine Immortal Mansion..."
Xun Zheng shuddered.
"Mr. Zhou, I..."
If Zhou Yu demanded more from Yunxiao Mansion too, he would truly be finished.
Zhou Yu suddenly curled the corner of his mouth.
"Donāt be nervous, I wonāt be demanding anything else."
Xun Zheng wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
"Thank you, thank you."
"Alright, I will take my leave now."
Zhou Yu said to Qin Lan:
"Qin Lan, letās go."
Qin Lan nodded.
"Alright."
Afterward, Zhou Yu turned to Tong Yingzi.
"Manager Tong, sorry about earlier."
Having said that, he nodded slightly and then walked out.
At this moment, Tong Yingzi was already stunned.
She had never seen Xun Zheng show such a submissive demeanor.
Who exactly was this Zhou Yu?
What gave him the power to come down from the Nine Heavens Mansion and instill such fear in Xun Zheng?
At this moment, she suddenly realized, this might be why her cousin Qin Lan treated Zhou Yu differently.
As Tong Yingzi was lost in her wild thoughts, suddenly, Xun Zhengās voice came through.
"Manager Tong, do you know Mr. Zhou?"
Tong Yingzi hurriedly answered:
"Mr. Xun, he... he is my cousinās... boyfriend."
Tong Yingzi wasnāt sure how to introduce him, but from Qin Lanās reaction earlier, they seemed to be in a romantic relationship.
Hearing this, Xun Zheng immediately felt intrigued.
"Manager Tong, youāve been working in Yunxiao Mansion for several years now."
"I see youāve been doing quite well, youāre the lobby manager now, right?"
"Yes, yes, Mr. Xun, I was just promoted at the beginning of this year."
"Hmm, I think thatās still underutilizing your abilities. Well then, I hereby officially appoint you as the vice-president of Yunxiao Mansion, in charge of all daily affairs."
Tong Yingzi was filled with shock.
"Mr. Xun, I was just promoted, and another promotion so soon... wouldnāt that cause a bad impression..."
"A bad impression? How so? Are you worried about gossip?"
"Rest assured, if anyone dares to gossip, just fire them."
"No, no, no, thatās not what I meant." Tong Yingzi shook her head hastily.
"Then thereās no problem, right? Since thereās no issue, letās settle it then."
Xun Zheng made the decision on the spot.
Tong Yingzi was not foolish.
She quickly understood.
Xun Zheng was trying to please Zhou Yu through her.
Realizing this, her feelings were mixed.
She hadnāt thought highly of Zhou Yu before, yet he had such significant deterrence.
Just as Zhou Yu stepped onto the Nine Heavens Mansion, at another location, an elder stepped into Tang Longās villa.
At that time, Tang Long was discussing martial arts with Elder Lu, while Lu Yu brewed tea for them.
Suddenly, Elder Lu sharply turned his head.
Only then did he notice that an elder had somehow appeared in the yard.
Upon seeing this elder, Elder Luās face changed dramatically.
"Three!"
"Lu Kui, you know why I am here, donāt you? Betraying the Letian Association, kneel down and accept your death."
"Quickly notify Zhou Yu!"
Without any hesitation, Elder Lu dropped a message and immediately took the initiative to attack.
