Bai Lan wanted to stop the three from heading to Ye Qiu's residence, but how could she, with her strength, be a match for Bai Hao and Zhang Tianfu, two grown n? Moreover, one of them was a military veteran from the Demon Corps, Lone Wolf!
After pushing Bai Lan aside, Bai Hao took Zhang Tianfu and the others with him as they left.
Watching their distant figures, Bai Lan felt extrely anxious. She hurriedly took out her phone, wanting to tell Ye Qiu to leave quickly.
However, when she dialed the number, all she heard was a series of chanical female voice reminders that Ye Qiu's phone was off.
"That damn bastard, his phone better not be dead at a ti like this!" Bai Lan cursed, yet her anxiety was beyond words. She didn't want to sit in the office waiting for news, so she quickly called her secretary, explained a few things about company matters, and drove straight to Ye Qiu's rented apartnt.
At this mont, Ye Qiu still had no idea that Zhang Tianfu and the others were approaching him; he was growing increasingly impatient.
"Ye Qiu, we only ask for your help once. As long as you deal with the Wolf Fang rcenary Corps, we will not bother you in the future." Zhang Aiguo truly worried himself sick over this matter; he no longer appeared like a staff officer at all.
"Just leave. All I want now is to live my life in peace, let everything from the past be forgotten."
Ye Qiu had promised Phoenix to live the life of an ordinary person from then on, so he had no desire to get involved in military matters, except for the Blood Cross. He would not relent until Blood Cross was wiped from the world.
Zhang Aiguo opened his mouth, wanting to say sothing more, but in the end, he didn't speak.
"Sigh..."
Zhang Aiguo sighed deeply, finally giving up because he knew that saying more would not move Ye Qiu; he turned to leave.
As he was about to open the door, it swung open first—no, to be exact, it was kicked open.
"Ye Qiu, get out here, damn it!"
Bai Hao arrived with Zhang Tianfu, finally.
Without even taking a clear look inside the room, Bai Hao arrogantly shouted and then led Zhang Tianfu inside with large strides.
"You are Ye Qiu?"
As soon as Zhang Tianfu entered the room, he imdiately asked.
Perhaps because of Bai Hao, Zhang Tianfu's attitude toward Ye Qiu was quite poor; Ye Qiu had taken his woman, which made him extrely unhappy.
"Old man, this doesn't concern you, get out imdiately!"
Bai Hao spotted Zhang Aiguo inside the room; he thought the old man looked familiar but couldn't rember where he'd seen him before. But none of that mattered now—what mattered was revenge!
It was only when Bai Hao shouted that Zhang Tianfu noticed there were others aside from Ye Qiu in the room. But in the next second, he was dumbfounded, stunned!
"Se-Second Uncle..."
Zhang Tianfu stamred out.
Still, Bai Hao's brain hadn't caught up, "Second Uncle? What second uncle? Young Master Zhang, are you talking to this old man?"
"Bastard!"
Zhang Aiguo's face turned livid, especially as he looked at Bai Hao, wishing he could imdiately slap him.
All over Huaxia, those who dared tell him to get out could never be more than one! Yet this statent ca from an unknown junior!
At least in Zhang Aiguo's eyes, Bai Hao was such an upstart; soone like Bai Hao couldn't even begin to catch his eye.
Zhang Tianfu hadn't yet figured out why Zhang Aiguo was in Ye Qiu's room, but at that mont, the rcenary from the Demon Corps following him, upon seeing Ye Qiu, wore an expression of shock.
After a long while, he finally reacted.
Imdiately, he took large strides toward Ye Qiu, knelt down on one knee directly, "King!"
King?
What the heck?
Zhang Tianfu felt his head go blank!
Because Lone Wolf had retired from the Demon Corps, there was a certain pride about him. He usually didn't bother dealing with others, and Zhang Tianfu had always been cautious facing him, but for such a man of steel to kneel to Ye Qiu?
Wait!
In the Demon Corps, there seed to be only one person called King!
Could it be... Ye Qiu is...
Zhang Tianfu couldn't believe it, staring wide-eyed and foolishly at Ye Qiu.
During the process, his mind kept racing, with past scenes flashing across his mind.
Because the Zhang Family was a family of military personnel, although Zhang Tianfu hadn't served, he knew a few things about military affairs. Naturally, he had heard of the Demon Corps' Demon King's na. Back then, with Ye Qiu creating an unparalleled legend, Zhang Tianfu had also heard of it and had once idolized Ye Qiu.
For this, he had even gone to great lengths to obtain Ye Qiu's photo through certain channels. Looking now, wasn't this Ye Qiu the sa as the once bright and shining Demon King?
"Bai Hao, damn it, you screwed over!"
Zhang Tianfu was about to vomit blood; he wished he could throttle Bai Hao right away. Needless to say, with Zhang Aiguo present, even without Zhang Aiguo, asking him to target the Demon King was basically sending him to his death!
He'd never seen such a pigheaded teammate as Bai Hao before!
"What's really going on here?"
Zhang Aiguo, having been repeatedly refused by Ye Qiu, was already displeased. Bai Hao's earlier outburst only ignited his fury more. Moreover, having soone with such unrestrained speech mixed with the nephew he favored most was sothing he couldn't tolerate.
"I..."
Being questioned by Zhang Aiguo, Zhang Tianfu wanted nothing more than to cry. He was entirely unaware of how poorly things had turned out for him.
He dared not speak, but under Zhang Aiguo's stern gaze, he imdiately caved and recounted the whole story clearly.
"Alright! You've really achieved sothing!"
After understanding the situation, Zhang Aiguo chortled in anger, saying:
"What I hate most are arranged marriages within the family. Since the Bai family's girl is unwilling, let's just call it off, lest others say our Bai Family bullies n and oppresses won."
Zhang Aiguo, as a man of integrity, usually ignored mundane matters, but now he couldn't avoid it.
"Yes, yes, yes..." Faced with Zhang Aiguo's words, Zhang Tianfu didn't dare object at all, quickly nodding compliantly.
"And you dared bring a retired Demon to trouble the Demon King!"
ntioning this caused Zhang Aiguo to fu. Although Ye Qiu had retired from the Demon Corps, his illustrious achievents for Huaxia could not be erased. People like Ye Qiu were always treated well by the nation to keep soldiers' spirits high, yet Zhang Tianfu committed such a grave blunder!
"Yes, yes, yes..."
"What? You still say yes?"
