Chapter 1205: Chapter 1209 is a Master Who Fears Nothing but Disorder in the World

Ye Xingbei: “…”

Is this a warning by killing a chicken to scare the monkeys?

But it was necessary.

She wanted to plant a cash cow; she definitely didn’t want to end up raising a thankless wolf.

“Fifth Master, I understand your meaning,” Lou Ning’s eyes were clear as he looked straight into Gu Junzhu’s eyes, “I can swear that I am not that kind of person. My gratitude towards you and your wife is sincere. I can guarantee that I will never forget your and your wife’s kindness, and I will always be loyal and never betray you.”

“Fine words are easy to say,” Gu Junzhu said indifferently, “I will wait and see how you act.”

Lou Ning nodded earnestly, “I will definitely prove myself.”

He could understand the distrust from Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei towards him.

After all, their relationship was merely transactional for now.

But relationships between people could be cultivated over time.

Time would reveal a person’s true heart.

In time, they would realize that his gratitude towards them came from the depths of his heart.

Nobody knew how crucial Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei’s trip to Zhou City was for him.

As long as An Zhenglin gloriously lived, he would only ever be trampled into the mud, struggling in a demeaning way.

In his lifetime, he could only watch An Zhenglin use his grandparents’ estate to support his mistress and illegitimate children.

It would drive him to despair, living a life worse than death every single day.

His entire life would be ruined.

To switch places with An Zhenglin, to trample him into the dirt and reclaim everything that belonged to him and his mother, that was something he dreamt of achieving.

To reach his goal, he could give up everything.

And what he needed to offer Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei was his loyalty.

He could do it.

He promised.

Two days later.

Zhou City’s largest hotel hosted a grand charity gala, which officially began after nightfall.

The event was organised by Zhou Shengqian, the second son of Zhou City’s richest man.

Zhou Shengqian’s grandfather, uncle, and elder brother were all men of high status and position.

Zhou Corporation, now managed by Zhou Shengqian, was thriving and flourishing, rightly the most preeminent corporation in Zhou City.

Those who received an invitation felt honored.

An Zhenglin didn’t expect that he would also receive an invitation.

The Lou Family had also been a wealthy family in Zhou City, but when he took over Lou Corporation, there was significant turmoil within the company and he suffered heavy losses.

When he finally took control of the Lou Family, the family’s fortune had more than halved. With his current financial status, he wouldn’t even rank within the top hundred in Zhou City.

Yet, he was amazingly invited to the star-studded charity evening hosted by the wealthy Zhou Family, which left him overwhelmed and nervously guessing what extraordinary qualities he possessed that caught Zhou Shengqian’s eye.

When he arrived with Pang Xiangwen and their children, Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei were in the second floor VIP room chatting with Zhou Shengqian.

Zhou Shengqian was Sheng Xicheng’s cousin.

Gu Junzhu had contacted Zhou Shengqian to ask for his help in staging tonight’s drama.

Zhou Shengqian, who scorned worldly affairs and loved chaos, was always up for some excitement.

After hearing Gu Junzhu’s plan, he was more than eager to participate, relishing in the drama without fearing the consequences, the more chaotic the better.

Zhou Shengqian and Gu Junzhu were not actually close, having only met a few times.

But Gu Junzhu’s heroic deeds from his military days had been recounted to him countless times by his cousin.

To Zhou Shengqian, Gu Junzhu was like a figure from legends.
