The atmosphere in the room was silent.
Zheng Yaotiao was trying hard to endure, while opposite her, Yuan Kun was staring fixedly at Fang Yi, without noticing any change in Zheng Yaotiao’s expression.
For a mont, the atmosphere was frighteningly quiet.
But fortunately, this situation did not last long, as an elderly man leaning on a dragon-headed cane slowly walked in at the doorway.
Although the old man was using a cane, there was still a nurse supporting him, followed by two more nurses.
The man was quite old, probably around eighty, yet he was still walking, which proved his robust health.
The old man was not impressive in appearance, but the aura of being the biggest decision-maker of the Zheng Family was unmistakable, a sense of authority flickered in his slightly cloudy eyes, and when he appeared here, Yuan Kun and all the bodyguards imdiately bowed to him respectfully.
The old man tapped the ground with his dragon-headed cane, and upon seeing Fang Yi in close proximity with his granddaughter, the old man showed no sign of anger, remaining very calm.
"All of you, leave," the old man spoke slowly.
"But the young lady was..." Yuan Kun wanted to stay, but under the gaze of the old man’s authoritative eyes, Yuan Kun couldn’t help but shiver, and after a harsh glance at Fang Yi, he ultimately retreated.
This also included Zheng Yaotiao’s lover, Secretary Liu.
"Help sit down," the old man said to the nurse beside him.
With the nurse’s support, the old man sat on a chair and then instructed the nurses to leave and close the door.
Thus, only Fang Yi, the old man, and Zheng Yaotiao were left in the room.
Only then did the old man raise his head to look at Fang Yi and said lightly, "Alright, everyone’s gone, let go of my granddaughter."
"Old Master Zheng is indeed as daring as the rumors say, admirable," Fang Yi praised, and still released Zheng Yaotiao.
Having gained so advantage, and with Old Master Zheng giving enough face, if Fang Yi didn’t let go, it would truly be inappropriate.
Released by Fang Yi, Zheng Yaotiao imdiately distanced herself from him, glaring at Fang Yi with angry eyes, and said coldly, "What daring, your words are too unpleasant!"
Fang Yi laughed, "Old Master Zheng dares to face this alone, isn’t that daring?"
"You!"
Zheng Yaotiao wanted to say more, but Old Master Zheng suddenly raised his hand to stop her.
"Young people should speak with discretion, sotis trouble cos from careless talk, understand?" Old Master Zheng said lightly, though his words carried a hint of threat.
Fang Yi didn’t care at all, smiled and said, "Of course, I understand, but I have a question, I wonder if Old Master Zheng can give an answer."
Old Master Zheng said, "Go ahead!"
"It’s like this, a friend of mine borrowed sothing very valuable from over ten years ago, sothing that was an antique, took it to an auction and sold it for a huge price, and with the money made a fortune, which unexpectedly grew really big. After I found out, I imdiately asked him for the money, but didn’t expect my friend to turn hostile, even wanting people to beat , thinking carefully about it, it’s really infuriating."
Fang Yi watched the old man’s expression change, smiled and said, "Old Master, can you give an answer, hm? Old Master’s face seems a bit off, did sothing unpleasant co to mind?"
