Zhou Yu’s words stopped Li Zerui in his tracks. He slowly turned around, and the fury in his eyes was about to burst.
"You’re just using others to bully people."
"Just because Miss Jiang protects you, you dare to push your luck."
Jiang Xin also looked toward Zhou Yu, her face showing dissatisfaction.
She didn’t know Zhou Yu at all, and if her dad hadn’t called her, plus Zhang Jingjing coming to find her, she wouldn’t have bothered with this matter.
Unexpectedly, this guy named Zhou Yu, far from being thankful, became even greedier.
This man really has no sense of shame.
Zhou Yu didn’t even notice Jiang Xin’s scornful gaze; he just calmly said:
"Whether she’s here or not, I’m set on taking over Wanhua Tower."
Li Zerui, trying to suppress his rage, looked at Jiang Xin.
"Miss Jiang, he’s using you , yet you’re going to protect him?"
Jiang Xin was furious inside, but since she had already promised Zhang Jingjing, no matter how disgusted she felt, she had to finish the task.
Jiang Xin said with a stern face:
"Anyway, you can’t touch him today."
Li Zerui’s fists clenched tightly with a crackling sound.
He squeezed a word out through clenched teeth.
His face full of sinister anger, he flung his hand and strode out.
Du Qingde and the others left with him.
Yan Zhengquan was stunned.
Just like that... they’re leaving?
He quickly followed, intending to leave, but Zhou Yu reached out through the air and pulled him back.
Yan Zhengquan screamed in terror.
"Young Master Li, Young Master Li..."
However, Li Zerui didn’t even turn his head back.
Yan Zhengquan was cowed.
"Zhou... Mr. Zhou, let’s talk this out."
"I’ll sign the contract right away and transfer Wanhua Tower..."
Zhou Yu let out a sneer.
"At least you’re sensible."
Then, he looked toward Chen Feihu and gave a slight nod.
Chen Feihu immediately understood, and with barely containable glee, he said:
"I’ll go prepare the contract."
Soon, the contract was ready, and Yan Zhengquan signed it with a gloomy face.
Thus, the Wanhua Tower that he had operated for decades was handed over to a new owner just like that.
But Yan Zhengquan didn’t dare to show the smallest protest and sheepishly left.
At this moment, Jiang Xin approached Zhou Yu.
She coldly eyed Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu furrowed his brows:
"What are you talking about?"
"Hmph, let me tell you, this is the first and last time."
"I hate greedy people the most!"
After speaking, she walked out with a cold face.
Old Wang looked deeply at Zhou Yu and also departed.
Zhang Jingjing stomped her foot in anger when she saw this scene.
She angrily looked at Zhou Yu.
"Zhou Yu, you’ve gone too far."
"Do you have any idea how much it took for Jiang Xin to come here? My dad had to call her dad and pay a price to ask for her help."
"And you just pissed her off."
Zhou Yu looked utterly baffled.
"What is all this about?"
"When did I need her help?"
He had now advanced his Primordial Spirit to the Saint Realm, making him, strictly speaking, a Martial Artist of the Holy Realm in terms of soul technique.
However, he did not specialize solely in soul techniques and wasn’t familiar with many such methods.
But in dealing with a Mid-Holy Realm Du Qingde, Zhou Yu was confident in himself.
Moreover, Zhou Yu had originally planned to use Du Qingde to familiarize himself with the materialized attack techniques of the Saint Realm Primordial Spirit.
Now, due to Jiang Xin’s intervention, this plan had been foiled.
He was still annoyed about it.
Seeing Zhou Yu’s reaction , Zhang Jingjing was even more infuriated.
She angrily kicked Zhou Yu.
"Hmph, no good deed goes unpunished."
With that, she turned and chased after the others.
"This woman, her moods change so quickly..."
Yan Zhengquan quickly caught up with Li Zerui and the rest.
"Young Master Li, are we really going to give away Wanhua Tower just like that?"
"This is too embarrassing, if word gets out, I don’t care about losing face for the Yan Family, I’m just worried it might damage the reputation of our business association..."
Before Yan Zhengquan could finish, Li Zerui suddenly turned his head and looked at him.
His eyes were filled with chilling coldness.
Yan Zhengquan jumped in fright and swallowed the words he was about to say.
"Did you sign the transfer contract for Wanhua Tower?" Li Zerui asked ominously.
Yan Zhengquan’s face turned pale with fear.
"Young Master Li, I... I had no choice..."
"If I didn’t sign... I would probably have died there..."
"You’re such trash, you should have died there," Li Zerui said mercilessly.
Yan Zhengquan felt extremely aggrieved inside.
You, Li Zerui, were the one who didn’t dare to offend Jiang Xin and ran away with your tail between your legs.
Now you’re shifting the blame onto me.
But these words, he dared only think in his heart, not daring to speak them aloud.
"Young Master Li, I admit I’m useless."
"But no matter what, I’ve been the most loyal dog under your command for all these years, haven’t I?"
"Now that Wanhua Tower is gone, are we just going to let this go?" Yan Zhengquan said unwillingly.
"No one dares to snatch something from my hands, Li Zerui!"
"And that Zhou is no exception."
Hearing this, Yan Zhengquan wished he could slap him.
Dammit, we were chased out, and you’re still putting on airs.
Yan Zhengquan managed a forced and ugly smile.
"But, Young Master Li, if Jiang Xin is determined to protect him, I’m afraid, it will be difficult."
Li Zerui sneered and didn’t speak; instead, he took out his phone and dialed a number.
"Brother Bai, there’s no problem with the favor you asked me for, but I need you to take care of someone..."
