883 Who Is He?
As early as a dozen years ago, the Zhan family had already planned to return to the country to develop. However, the domestic law was too strict, and after the family had infiltrated for so long, it was still challenging to develop.
Zhan Cangqiong’s return this time was also to expand the power in the country further and lay a good foundation for the family’s return. The Zhan family had always been walking on the edge of danger. It was mysterious and dangerous, and there was a family rule in the Zhan family. The winner could take anything the loser had, from money and treasures to assets, family, and even organs and lives. Therefore, after adulthood, once the members of the Zhan Family fought, they could only win and not lose. No one could afford the price of losing.
However, Ji Yan was a tycoon in S City. How did he know about such a secret rule of the Zhan Family? That made Zhan Cangqiong feel a little ominous. When he thought of Ji Yan’s outstanding and capable skills, he felt that Ji Yan was not as simple as he seemed.
“It’s good that you remember, Mr. Zhan.” Ji Yan was still calm as if he did not feel that he had said anything shocking. He grabbed his phone and tapped it twice with his slender fingers. Then, he said, “Since Mr. Zhan has forgotten the rules, you should think about it properly so that outsiders won’t find out and laugh at the Zhan family for being worse than before. Since Mr. Zhan has forgotten the rules, I’ll find someone to help you remember.” As he spoke, he swiped his finger lightly. Even the letters and numbers on the screen disappeared as if they had never been.
Zhan Cangqiong’s breathing quickened as he felt a sense of crisis. “Who exactly are you? What did you do?”
Before Ji Yan could answer, someone knocked on Zhan Cangqiong’s door, and a capable female voice sounded, “Young Master, someone in the clan has issued a challenge to you and needs you to return to deal with it.”
Zhan Cangqiong’s breathing stopped. Impossible! The Zhan family might not seem eye-catching in the country, but their influence abroad had long reached an unimaginable level after several generations of development. Ji Yan was just a businessman. Even if he was a wealthy businessman in S City, how could he have stretched his hand so far? It was even more impossible for him to order his family members around. What was going on?
Zhan Cangqiong had been the young master for a long time, and very few people dared to challenge his authority. Facing this sudden challenge, he felt he had returned to the time he was fighting onstage. The feeling of being provoked made him shocked and angry, and his face looked a little crazy. He did not hesitate to grab the wine glass on the table and smash it on the ground with a loud bang. He still felt that it was not enough, so he grabbed the newspaper that was supposed to scare Shen Hanxing and Ji Yan, making them fall to the ground
Damn it! Damn it! Those people dared to betray him!
“Ji Yan!” Zhan Cangqiong gritted his teeth and shouted, “Who are you? You can’t just be a businessman! Who exactly are you? What method did you use?”
“Me? I’m just an ordinary man protecting Mrs. Ji,” Ji Yan’s tone was neither fast nor slow. Whether Zhan Cangqiong was proud or dangerous, angry or crazy, he was always calm and aloof, as if everything was under his control. He said indifferently to Zhan Cangqiong, “I hope Mr. Zhan likes my gift to you. I’ll accept Lele. Goodbye.” After saying that, he raised his hand and hung up the phone, leaving Zhan Cangqiong on the other end.
The woman who entered wore a professional suit and had a gold-rimmed frame on her nose bridge. Her beautiful face was expressionless. When Zhan Cangqiong had vented enough, she said calmly, “Young Master, the earliest flight is in half an hour. You don’t have much time to waste. Please prepare to leave as soon as possible.”
Zhan Cangqiong was furious, but there was nothing he could do. He could only grab his coat from the sofa and say with bloodshot eyes, “Let’s go!” The two of them left one after another. The door was closed, and the entire room returned to silence.
At this moment, the phone that Zhan Cangqiong smashed suddenly lit up. The phone kept vibrating, and the broken screen showed the name “Angel Girl”. However, this phone was destined not to be picked up. The phone rang countless times before it finally fell silent.
On the other side, Shen Hanxing saw that Ji Yan had settled the matter with a few words. Her eyes lit up as she looked at Ji Yan and called out in a sweet and soft voice, “Mr. Ji…” She felt that calling him was not enough, so her delicate fingertips poked Ji Yan’s arm.
