662: Chapter 622 Young Master Zhu_1 662: Chapter 622 Young Master Zhu_1 The Young Master of the Zhu family immediately greeted Zhan Tianyu with a beaming smile upon seeing him.

“I’ve long admired your name.

I never expected to meet you here.

By the way, Martial Instructor Zhan, what are you doing here?”

Zhan Tianyu seemed unsure how to begin and instead looked toward Lu Chuan at his side.

Subsequently, Lu Chuan stepped forward and spoke, “We’ve both just returned from a trip out of town, and it’s quite a coincidence to meet here.”

At this moment, the coachman Li Er, standing to the side, had already lowered his head in fear and dared not look directly.

Young Master Zhu looked toward Lu Chuan, sizing him up.

Noting Lu Chuan’s ordinary attire and handsome appearance, he didn’t appear to be a person of significant abilities.

“You…

are you Zhan Tianyu’s lackey?”

Young Master Zhu speculated.

Upon hearing this, Zhan Tianyu hastily clarified, “He’s not my lackey; he’s my friend.”

“If he’s your friend, then naturally, he’s also my friend.”

“My name is Zhu Zhengjiang, the third son of the Zhu Family Patriarch.

Pleased to meet you.”

He moved forward and shook hands with Lu Chuan.

He then turned to the girl beside him and said, “What are you waiting for?

Come with me.

Your father sold you to our family to be a maidservant, not to stand around like an idiot!”

Zhan Tianyu quickly asked, “Wasn’t she supposed to be a concubine for your family?”

“Dream on.

That was just to fool her parents, to make them think that selling their daughter would give her a better life.”

“With her lowly life, she’s only fit to be a maidservant.”

“However, this girl does look quite pretty.

After she finishes her work, we can still grace her with some favor.

The money spent is not wasted at all.”

With a chuckle, he continued, “Our Zhu family never makes a losing deal.

No matter the size of the business, we must make a profit.

That’s the motto of our family.”

He looked at Lu Chuan and said, “If you lot have no other business here, please leave.

I need to take her back now.”

Having said that, he began walking toward the girl.

However, the girl hid behind Lu Chuan.

Seeing her cowering like that, Zhu Zhengjiang immediately became infuriated.

“Get out here!”

“Excuse me, friend, step aside.

I need to take her back,” Zhu Zhengjiang said impatiently.

Lu Chuan shook his head slightly, standing his ground, and said, “She doesn’t want to go back with you.

Can’t you see that?”

“Nonsense!

Who would want to be hard labor for someone else’s family?

She doesn’t want to?

No matter what she wants, she has to!”

Without another word, he quickly strode toward Lu Chuan, reaching out to grab the girl.

Immediately, Lu Chuan raised his hand and caught his wrist, “I’m afraid today, you won’t be taking her away.”

In an instant, Zhu Zhengjiang’s face darkened, his eyes glaring straight at Lu Chuan, he said in a stern voice, “What do you mean by that?

Are you trying to oppose the Zhu family?”

His entourage of more than a dozen henchmen stepped forward, showing ferocious expressions.

This scene frightened the girl so much that she began to tremble.

Zhan Tianyu stepped forward, looked at Lu Chuan, and advised, “There’s no need for this.

We’re all strangers; there’s no need to offend each other.”

Then, looking at Zhu Zhengjiang, Zhan Tianyu said seriously, “Don’t offend him, I mean it, otherwise, you’ll bring a great trouble upon your Zhu family!”

Zhu Zhengjiang was only further provoked by these words.

“In this entire Dubhe City, how many people are there whom I can’t offend?

And who does he think he is?”

He opened his eyes and glared at Lu Chuan, barking, “Get the hell out of my way, and don’t interfere with my business!”

The next moment, Lu Chuan kicked Zhu Zhengjiang in the abdomen.

The tremendous force sent him flying and rolling out for more than ten meters before gradually coming to a stop.

This scene completely dumbfounded the dozen or so followers, all of them froze on the spot, unsure of what to do.

They naturally did not dare to lay a hand on Lu Chuan and could only rush over to Zhu Zhengjiang in a panic.

“Boss!

Are you alright?”

“Boss, this guy is too arrogant!

Should we go back and call for backup?”

At this moment, Zhu Zhengjiang slowly opened his eyes, wiped the fresh blood from the corner of his mouth, and hurriedly popped an elixir pill into his mouth.

He looked up at Lu Chuan with a tense tone, “Good…

you got guts, daring to hit a member of the Zhu family!

My dad won’t let you off!”

“You’re waiting for death!

If you have the courage, announce your name.

After today, you’ll have no place in Dubhe City!”

He shouted angrily, his aura not reduced in the slightest, but he dared not curse out loud, for fear of offending Lu Chuan and provoking a deadly response.

Lu Chuan stood in his place and said indifferently, “My name is Lu Chuan.

Go back and inform everyone in your house, and let’s see if you truly have the capability to trouble me!”

Zhu Zhengjiang hurriedly got up from the ground and pointed at Lu Chuan, shouting, “You just wait!

Our Zhu family won’t let you go!”

He turned to leave but was immediately stopped by a lackey.

“Young Master Zhu!

He…

he is Lu Chuan!”

Zhu Zhengjiang yelled, “I’m not deaf.

I heard what he said!”

“Young Master Zhu, have you forgotten?

At noon today, a representative from the Hua family in Flower City came to our mansion to extend the commercial relations between our two families for another three years!”

Zhu Zhengjiang furrowed his brows, clearly impatient, “What does that have to do with me?

What’s that got to do with me?”

“Young Master Zhu, don’t you remember?

A few months ago, the Hua family ran out of raw materials because their Spirit Tree had problems.

Now that they can supply again, it means the Spirit Tree has been revived.”

“Is that so?

The person who can revive such a millennia-old Spirit Tree is certainly no ordinary individual.”

“Still, that has nothing to do with me.

How much longer do you plan to prattle on?”

The lackey hurriedly said, “That Hua family representative mentioned the name of the person who revived their Spirit Tree during the business talk with the old master.

That person’s name was Lu Chuan!”

Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhengjiang froze on the spot, his brain whirring into action at high speed.

“Are you serious?

Is it really this guy?”

“Absolutely certain.

His name is Lu Chuan unless it’s someone with the same name.”

Zhu Zhengjiang fell into contemplation.

He was obviously rattled.

Earlier that day, when the Hua family’s representative arrived, his father was incessantly flattering, hinting that the Hua family was on the rise again.

And the person responsible for the Hua family’s resurgence was definitely not ordinary.

If his father found out that he had offended such a person, he was likely to get slapped hard.

He took a deep breath, quickly calming his nerves.

He now realized that something was amiss—he had actually provoked such an individual!

He turned back to look at Lu Chuan, managing with great difficulty to squeeze out a fawning smile.

He approached Lu Chuan with his hands rubbing together, a smile of ingratiating on his face.

“Young Master Lu!

We’re really fated to meet here, aren’t we?”

This scene took Zhan Tianyu by complete surprise, “Young Master Zhu, what’s the meaning of this?”

He asked curiously.

Zhu Zhengjiang looked at Zhan Tianyu and said, “I was just joking earlier.

If Young Master Lu wishes to take someone away, I have no objections.

I will definitely support Young Master Lu’s decision!”

Zhu Zhengjiang’s sudden change of attitude left Zhan Tianyu thoroughly confused, “Wait, are you Zhu Zhengjiang?

Where did you hide the guy from just now?”
