Xia Ruoxue then looked at Ye Chen and realized that he was still expressionless…

He was completely fine!

Had this guy been practicing his poker face?

Even the hunchbacked man’s look of shock made more sense than Ye Chen’s expression!

Xia Ruoxue could not hide her curiosity. She reached out and poked Ye Chen’s waist.

“How do you know Zhou Fulu?”

Ye Chen shrugged. “Ah, so this hot-tempered guy is called Zhou Fulu? We almost got into a fight previously.”

Xia Ruoxue was stunned. She looked at Ye Chen as if he was an idiot!

Zhou Fulu was indeed hot-tempered, but to fight him?

What a joke!

Who in Jiangnan Province would dare to make a move against Zhou Fulu?

Was that not akin to courting death?

In fact, Ye Chen was somewhat surprised to see him here. After all, they had been at odds with each other at the hospital.

Was he here under his father’s orders?

Ye Chen glanced at Xia Ruoxue’s mother’s petrified smile and knew that Zhou Fulu’s identity was definitely extraordinary.

At the entrance of the Heavenly Justice Group, just as Zhou Fulu was about to place the flower baskets in his hand on both sides of the door, he noticed the statue that the Xia family’s servant had placed there.

His expression suddenly changed.

Giving this thing at someone’s business opening ceremony was clearly a sign of someone looking for trouble.

Soon, he caught sight of a middle-aged man beside him. The other party’s eyes looked a little flustered. Clearly, this matter was related to him.

He put the flower baskets aside and walked straight toward the middle-aged man.

“Is this your doing?”

The middle-aged man did not dare to speak. He simply lowered his head and pretended not to hear anything.

“Are you deaf?”

Zhou Fulu snorted coldly. With his status, he would not fight with such a person in public, and simply said, ‘Til give you three seconds to take it back. Otherwise, I promise that you will understand the full extent of the Zhou family’s influence in Jiangnan Province.”

Zhou Fulu knew very well that any person who dared to give such a thing in front of the two councilors of River City’s Municipal Council definitely had a high status!

“One, two…”

Before Zhou Fulu could say three, the middle-aged man rushed over and picked up the Child of Wealth statue from the ground, hugging it tightly in his arms.

He knew very well that he was only a servant of the Xia family. If the Zhou family wanted to deal with him, the Xia family would definitely abandon him without hesitation.

Thus, he could only rely on himself!

“Madam…”

After doing all this, the middle-aged man looked at Xia Ruoxue’s mother and asked for help.

“Put it down. The Xia family will not take back something it has given!”

Xia Ruoxue’s mother recovered from her shock and her cold voice rang out.

Although she did not know why Zhou Fulu was here, it had nothing to do with the grudge between the Xia family and the Heavenly Justice Group!

Zhou Fulu finally noticed her and smiled. “Hey, if it isn’t Madam Xia. What brings you here? Hmm, oh I remember now. Yesterday, the Xia family was the first to announce a boycott of the Heavenly Justice Group, right?”

Xia Ruoxue’s mother’s expression turned gloomy as she said coldly, “Zhou Fulu, why are you getting involved in this mess? This is a grudge between me and the Heavenly Justice Group. Are you sure you want to wade into muddy waters? The friendship between the Xia family and the Zhou family that has been established for so many years may be destroyed by your actions. Have you considered the consequences?”

“Also, other people might be afraid of you, Zhou Fulu, but my Xia family isn’t!”

Zhou Fulu glanced at Ye Chen, and then said to Xia Ruoxue’s mother, “The Xia family is considered a major family in Jiangnan Province. It’s ridiculous for them to come to such a small place to make things difficult for others. The dignity of the major families of Jiangnan Province have been sullied by your actions!”

Hearing this, Xia Ruoxue’s mother became furious.

She had heard of Zhou Fulu’s temper before, but she had not expected him to be so arrogant.

“Zhou Fulu, you had better understand the seriousness of this matter! You’re not the Zhou family’s patriarch yet! You have no right to represent the Zhou family! Every decision I made in River City this time was personally approved by the current patriarch of the Xia family, my husband!”

She then coldly said to the middle-aged man in the distance, “Put the statue down! You’re a member of the Xia family, so heed my orders! No one else has the right to threaten you! Remember that the Xia family will take responsibility for everything that happens!”

The middle-aged man was really about to break down. However, since she had said this, he was left with no recourse.

Just as he was about to put down the Child of Wealth statue, a

vigorous-sounding voice was heard from afar,

“Fulu doesn’t have the right to represent the Zhou family, but what about me?”

When Xia Ruoxue’s mother heard this voice, her body trembled and her eyes were filled with panic.

“Impossible…”

She turned her neck stiffly and soon spotted an old man in a Huaxian tunic suit walking toward her!

Almost instantly, her face paled.

The sudden appearance of this old man was like a heavy hammer that smashed her heart into pieces.

Zhou Zhengde!

The Zhou Family patriarch!

Why would he appear here?

Moreover, the other party had expressed their stance clearly. This meant that the Zhou family would stand on the Heavenly Justice Group’s side!

Why?

Who could tell her why?

Why would the Zhou family choose to break off relations with the Xia family and stand behind a nameless young man?

“Elder Zhou…”

Xia Ruoxue’s mother could only address the old man respectfully.

Unless her husband was here, she had no right to be disrespectful to the old man in front of her.

Zhou Zhengde walked past her, but then deliberately stopped in his tracks and said seriously, “Ye Chen is my friend. If the Xia family wants to make things difficult for him… Hmph! The Zhou family doesn’t mind going to war with the Xia family! I only hope that Xia Hongye is prepared for the consequences of such a decision!”

A blatant threat!

“Bang!”

She then felt a wave of pressure rushing towards her!

This was the aura that Zhou Zhengde had accumulated from his decades of experience on the battlefield!

Her face was extremely pale, and she could barely even stand.

A few seconds later, she said,” Let’s go back…”

She could not accept this!

However, she was powerless in this situation.

Her husband would never risk offending the Zhou family!

Sure, the Xia family was an economic titan. However, Zhou Zhengde’s family, students and subordinates all had great backing and connections, especially in the military.

Zhou Zhengde might be able to destroy everything in the Xia family if he were to go all out!

She had only taken a few steps when she heard Zhou Zhengde’s voice again.

“Mr. Ye…”

She almost staggered and fell to the ground. Why did Zhou Zhengde address Ye Chen so respectfully?

It was a stark contrast from the way he had spoken to her just now!

Her heart felt waves upon waves of shock crash upon it.

She turned her head and took a deep look at Ye Chen.

Just who was this kid?
