Chapter 1034: Chapter 1034: No Respect!
Upon hearing this sudden voice, everyone paused and then turned to look.
A large group of n in black suits appeared.
In the midst of this group, there was a middle-aged man with silver-white hair.
This middle-aged man has deeply etched lines of authority on his face and carries an aura of intimidation without anger.
Though Zhou Yu had never t him, the voice was very familiar.
At that mont, Jiang Xin, who was anxious monts before, saw this person and imdiately flashed a smile, quickly moving forward.
“Dad, you finally ca.”
This middle-aged man was precisely Jiang Dongcheng.
As soon as he appeared, everyone imdiately showed signs of respect.
However, Han Minghao was not among them.
The Han Family is one of the top families in Shanghai and one of its old-established clans.
Over these years, as the Han Family’s influence grew, Han Minghao essentially did not regard Jiang Dongcheng seriously.
Han Minghao only feared the possibility that if Jiang Dongcheng advanced further, he would be promoted to the Capital City.
By then, not even the Han Family would dare to provoke him.
However, the Han Family has already thoroughly investigated internally, and the likelihood of this is not high.
Hence, Han Minghao was not afraid of Jiang Dongcheng.
Nevertheless, Jiang Dongcheng inadvertently moved to stand between him and Zhou Yu.
This made a flash of anger appear in Han Minghao’s eyes; though he wasn’t afraid of Jiang Dongcheng, if he were to injure him in front of everyone, it would be a huge trouble.
Han Minghao had no choice but to retract his Gang Jin, looking grimly at Jiang Dongcheng.
Jiang Dongcheng seed oblivious, he rely nodded faintly at Han Minghao before walking towards Zhou Yu, smiling.
“Zhou Yu, when did you arrive in Shanghai without even greeting ?”
With Jiang Dongcheng being so courteous, Zhou Yu naturally didn’t hold back either.
He quickly explained:
“I arrived yesterday, in a hurry and didn’t have ti to tell you.”
Jiang Dongcheng chuckled.
“No problem, you’ll be staying long-term in Shanghai, so we’ll have plenty of ti to et.”
At this point, he glanced around.
Seeing the surrounding devastation, he frowned slightly.
“What happened here?”
“How did it co to this?”
Zhou Yu coldly said:
“Han Minghao captured my friend; I’m here to find my friend.”
“Han Minghao wanted to spar with , so it turned out like this.”
Upon hearing this, Jiang Dongcheng looked at Han Minghao:
“Minghao, Zhou Yu is a dear friend of mine despite our age difference. Why don’t you do a favor, release his friend, and turn hostility into friendship?”
“As for the losses here tonight, I’ll cover them.”
Upon hearing this, Han Minghao’s face imdiately darkened.
Jiang Dongcheng wanted to brush over the matter with just a few words.
How could that be possible!
Is the Han Family unable to afford such losses?
What the Han Family values most is reputation.
And Zhou Yu’s actions tonight have severely damaged that reputation.
If Zhou Yu is simply let go like this, what will Han Minghao use to intimidate the younger generation in the future?
Han Minghao solemnly said:
“Uncle Jiang, considering our relationship with the Han Family, logically speaking, I ought to give you this favor.”
“But what Zhou Yu has done tonight goes beyond just causing our family financial loss.”
“Frankly speaking, tonight, I didn’t plan on letting him leave alive.”
“However, since you have spoken.”
“I must give you face.”
“As long as he kneels right now, apologizes by kowtowing to , I can let him leave and not hold today’s events against him.”
Upon hearing this, before Zhou Yu could react, Jiang Dongcheng’s brows first furrowed.
Having Zhou Yu kowtow publicly?
How could that be?
Not to ntion whether it would affect his reputation or not, it’s simply impossible given Zhou Yu’s temperant.
He had long noticed that in recent years, the Han Family was becoming increasingly arrogant, especially after Han Minghao rose to prominence; it seed like the Han Family was ignoring the state authorities even more.
It turned out this intuition was correct.
Jiang Dongcheng remained composed, though he didn’t show anger, it exerted imnse pressure on those around.
“Minghao, do you truly intend to be so forceful?”
Han Minghao now also sensed Jiang Dongcheng’s displeasure.
Actually, he was gambling, betting that Jiang Dongcheng wouldn’t turn against the Han Family because of Zhou Yu.
Unfortunately, now it seems he’s lost the bet.
The relationship between Jiang Dongcheng and Zhou Yu is closer than he imagined.
With things as they are, he’s unsure whether he should completely offend Jiang Dongcheng over this matter.
While Han Minghao hesitated, another voice sounded.
“Brother Jiang, I fear this favor cannot be granted today.”
Hearing this voice, many people’s expressions changed, unconsciously displaying awe.
Even the haughty Han Minghao just monts ago imdiately yielded to the side, showing a respectful deanor.
Zhou Yu looked towards the voice and saw an old man with white hair stepping out briskly.
This man seed close to a century old, yet still full of spirit.
Zhou Yu imdiately recognized that this person was a Qi Refining Master.
If he wasn’t mistaken, this person’s Qi Refining Cultivation should have also broken through into the Saint Realm.
Seeing this person, Zhao Da beside Zhou Yu suddenly stopped breathing.
“He… how did he co as well?”
Zhou Yu was startled.
“Who is this person?”
