The intent in Zhou Yu’s words was clear—he was going to back Chen Feihu.
No matter what, Chen Feihu was a major figure in the underworld of Haizhou.
He hadn’t dared to lash out before simply because he really couldn’t afford to offend Xue Yunxiang.
But now, Zhou Yu’s words had given him the confidence he needed.
It was just death, after all.
The anger Chen Feihu had been suppressing just then completely erupted.
He turned around, stepped forward, and directly grabbed Xue Yunxiang by the collar.
His eyes nearly shot fire.
Xue Yunxiang was stunned for a moment. Clearly, he hadn’t expected that a single sentence from Zhou Yu could make Chen Feihu so audacious.
Regaining his composure, he roared,
"Chen Feihu, just you try and touch me!"
"Fuck me, what wouldn’t I dare do?"
Chen Feihu cursed angrily and at the same time, he swung his arm round and slapped him.
The loud slap sent Xue Yunxiang reeling.
Blood flowed out from his mouth, spattering his handsome shirt.
One slap wasn’t enough for Chen Feihu.
Two more slaps followed.
Then he knocked Xue Yunxiang to the ground.
"Fuck your mother..."
Xue Yunxiang was furious.
The son of the chairman of Guang Da Chemical, even provincial governors were polite to him everywhere in Haizhou.
Yet today, some street thug had publicly beaten him to this state.
"You... are so dead..."
"I... will never let this go!"
Chen Feihu was about to stop when his eyes narrowed at that remark.
No half measures now.
Since he had started it,
he might as well beat him to death.
If Zhou Yu couldn’t cover for him in the end, even sacrificing his own life wouldn’t be a loss.
With that thought, Chen Feihu charged again and stomped twice on Xue Yunxiang’s head.
"You motherfucker..."
Xue Yunxiang was already a bloody mess.
"Just you wait... I..."
Chen Feihu kicked him again.
Xue Yunxiang couldn’t finish his sentence and passed out.
Looking at Xue Yunxiang lying in a pool of blood, Chen Feihu belatedly realized, his eyes twitching, and he quickly ran to Zhou Yu.
"Mr. Zhou, did I... go too far?"
Zhou Yu smiled faintly and said,
Hearing this, Chen Feihu immediately sighed in relief.
"Mr. Zhou, what... should we do now?"
"If he wakes up, he’ll definitely cause trouble..."
Zhou Yu gave a faint smile.
He hadn’t finished speaking when suddenly, a furious shout rang out.
"You have a lot of nerve, beating Xue Yunxiang to this state!!!"
Hearing this, Zhou Yu turned to look.
Emerging from the crowd, an elder strode forward, uncannily parting the onlookers on both sides.
And following him was Jiang Xin, whom they had just met a few days ago!
Chen Feihu didn’t recognize Jiang Xin and upon seeing someone stirring up trouble, his face darkened immediately.
"Where did you pop out from..."
Before he could finish, Zhou Yu stopped him.
Zhou Yu, surprised, exclaimed:
"Miss Jiang, what are you doing here?"
Jiang Xin, who didn’t think much of Zhou Yu, responded with a stern face:
"Do you know who he is?"
"How could you lay such a heavy hand on him?"
Zhou Yu nodded and said, "I know!"
"Knowing that, you still dare to be so arrogant?" Jiang Xin glared, angrily.
Zhou Yu calmly replied:
"He started trouble with my girlfriend first."
"If I didn’t even let out a fart, would I still be considered a man?"
Jiang Xin, seeing Zhou Yu still looking righteous, suddenly snapped:
"Fine, you’re right."
"You beat him up , and if Guangda Petrochemical comes causing trouble, I won’t intervene for you anymore."
"Even if Uncle Zhang Zheng personally asks me, I won’t help you."
Zhou Yu raised an eyebrow.
"A mere Guangda Petrochemical, do you think I’d be afraid?"
"Keep boasting!" Jiang Xin said with a face full of disdain.
"I can’t be bothered to argue with you; just wait and see."
Despite Jiang Xin’s poor attitude towards him, Zhou Yu didn’t take it to heart, considering she had helped him in the past.
"Hmph, this young lady doesn’t have the time to wait and see."
"What does your life or death have to do with me?"
"But, I had very important business with him, and now you’ve beaten him up . What about my matters?"
Jiang Xin said coldly.
Zhou Yu, curious, asked:
"What did you need this young master for?"
"Did you take a liking to him?"
Jiang Xin was so angry she looked like she could breathe fire.
Seeing Jiang Xin’s reaction, Zhou Yu realized that she might indeed have some important matters.
"Let’s do this; it’s too crowded here. Let’s find another place to talk, how about it?"
Jiang Xin snorted coldly but did not refuse.
Zhou Yu glanced at Chen Feihu, who quickly said:
"Mr. Zhou, there are seats upstairs."
Chen Feihu hurriedly led Zhou Yu and Jiang Xin upstairs.
On the way upstairs, Chen Feihu quietly asked:
"Mr. Zhou, what about Xue Yunxiang?"
"He’ll wake up soon and definitely seek people out."
"Then let him seek them; it’s only a matter of time," Zhou Yu remarked nonchalantly.
Chen Feihu took a deep breath and glanced back at Jiang Xin.
"Mr. Zhou, who... who is she?"
"The daughter of the mayor of Shanghai!"
Chen Feihu stumbled and nearly fell down the stairs.
His face turned pale, and his heart pounded fiercely.
He hadn’t felt this scared even when handling Xue Yunxiang earlier.
Good Lord, this woman had such a significant background.
Had Zhou Yu not stopped him earlier, if he had spoken out of turn, it’s hard to imagine what might have happened if he had angered this young lady.
Soon, they arrived at a luxurious private room on the top floor.
Chen Feihu respectfully ushered Jiang Xin in, yet she did not glance at him from beginning to end.
After sitting down, Zhou Yu asked:
"Miss Jiang, tell us, what business did you have with him?"
