Chapter 675: Chapter 675: News from the Bai Family!

Zhu Hongzhe replied:

"The Bai Family... has undergone serious infighting, and it seems a key figure has fled to Haizhou!"

"But as for who it is, I’m not sure..."

"The family’s order was for me to support the He Family and take control of Haizhou to facilitate the next step of the plan..."

"That’s all I know."

At this moment, Zhu Hongzhe was filled with fear, terrified that Zhou Yu might actually kill him.

Thus, he held nothing back.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu showed a contemplative expression.

It seems the situation with the Bai Family is really bad now.

Finding himself currently in Haizhou proved opportune, he had to find a way to gather more information.

Realizing this, Zhou Yu suddenly looked at Zhu Hongzhe, a slight smile playing at the corner of his mouth.

Zhu Hongzhe hadn’t grasped what Zhou Yu meant when suddenly, Zhou Yu’s hand shot out, grasping Zhu Hongzhe’s head.

Zhu Hongzhe’s face drastically changed.

"What are you going to do..."

Before he could finish, a terrifying, intense pain struck him.

"Ahhhhh—"

Zhu Hongzhe let out a piercing scream, frantically pulling at his hair, his facial features twisted together...

The pain was so intense he felt as if he were dying, his whole body convulsed in madness, but being held by Zhou Yu, he couldn’t move.

At that moment, it felt as if thousands of ants were biting inside his head...

This intense pain lasted for a good ten seconds before it gradually subsided.

Those ten seconds nearly drove Zhu Hongzhe to collapse; his entire body was soaked in sweat, his face deathly pale, his eyes utterly devoid of life.

This scene terrified the onlookers from the He Family, causing them to step back several paces with horrified expressions.

It was a while before Zhu Hongzhe somewhat recovered, and he couldn’t help but glare at Zhou Yu in anger.

"You... What did you do to me..."

Zhou Yu spoke indifferently:

"Nothing much."

"I just left something in your brain. From now on, if your Zhu Family dares to harbor any improper thoughts against the He Family or Qin Lan again, I can make you die in the agony you just experienced with just a thought."

"Of course, you can also seek out a master to remove it, but I must warn you..."

"What I left inside isn’t easy to remove, and you only have one chance to get it right. You’d better find the most capable person."

"You..."

Zhu Hongzhe looked at Zhou Yu, his eyes full of anger but also helplessness.

Struggling to stand up, he gritted his teeth and said:

"Can I leave now?"

"As you wish."

Zhu Hongzhe staggered away step by step.

Ever since Jia Shen had been killed by Zhou Yu, He Tianyu had already begun to feel a chill along his spine and broke out in a cold sweat.

Afterward, seeing Zhu Hongzhe tormented like that, he became even more terrified, feeling cold all over.

Now, seeing Zhu Hongzhe leave, He Tianyu was almost scared enough to wet himself.

Just then, he saw Zhou Yu’s gaze turn toward him.

At that, He Tianyu trembled, nearly falling over.

The ice in Zhou Yu’s eyes was palpable.

"Last time, you ran quite fast."

"Why aren’t you running now?"

Scared out of his wits, He Tianyu fell to his knees with a ’thump.’

"Zhou... Mr. Zhou, I was wrong."

"Please, spare me."

"I am willing to voluntarily relinquish the position of Family Head..."

"If that’s not enough to appease you, I can give you my son to deal with as you see fit."

"Just please spare me."

Zhou Yu furrowed his brow.

He Tianyu’s words had taken him by surprise.

He had planned to take the opportunity to deal with He Tianyu in order to prevent him from scheming behind his back.

Unexpectedly, He Tianyu had chosen to abandon his car to protect his commander and knelt to plead for mercy.

Zhou Yu’s gaze turned towards He Xu.

"Miss Xu, what do you think we should do?"

He Xu looked at her second uncle, her eyes full of hatred.

Especially when she remembered the words He Tianyu had just said to please Zhu Hongzhe, she felt an intense urge to tear He Tianyu into pieces.

But she couldn’t.

She was a clever woman, and a very scheming one as well.

If she dealt with He Tianyu now, how would she be any different from what He Tianyu had been doing?

The members of the He Family might not say anything at the moment, but they would definitely be wary of her.

Who knows? One day, if someone schemed behind her back and gave them some incentive, they would not hesitate to betray her.

On the other hand, if she spared He Tianyu now, although she would leave behind this disgusting person, it could win people’s hearts and unify the family.

Thinking of this, He Xu looked indifferently at He Tianyu.

"Second Uncle."

"For the position of Family Head, you disregarded blood relations and harmed your own family members. Normally, according to our family rules, even expelling you from the He Family would be justified."

"However, considering our close blood relations, I will not expel you from the He Family, but you must hand over all the corporate shares of the He Family. From now on, if you engage in any betrayal, I will not spare you."

Upon hearing this, He Tianyu collapsed on the ground.

Although unwilling, he had to accept it as it was better than losing his life.

He Xu immediately had someone retrieve all shares and seals that He Tianyu held.

She then turned urgently to Zhou Yu.

"Zhou Yu, please check on my dad, he’s been injured..."

"Alright."

He Xu had someone carry He Tianhua into the room, and Zhou Yu came over to examine him.

He found that He Tianhua had only been injured internally by Jia Shen’s imposing aura.

Jia Shen had intended merely to warn, so he had not struck with full force, and the injuries were not severe.

Zhou Yu transferred some Yi Wood True Qi into his body and quickly healed He Tianhua’s injuries.

"All done."

"Your father just needs to rest for a while, and he’ll be fine."

He Xu looked at Zhou Yu with a face full of gratitude.

"Zhou Yu, thank you."

Zhou Yu waved his hand.

"No problem, just make sure to stabilize the He Family quickly."

"Something big might happen in Haizhou soon."

"At that time, I might need your help."

He Xu quickly said:

"No problem."

Zhou Yu nodded, glanced out the window, and noticed it had already grown dark outside.

"I should be going now."

Having said that, Zhou Yu stood up, ready to leave.

However, He Xu suddenly reached out and grabbed Zhou Yu’s hand.

Zhou Yu turned his head to look and saw He Xu with a blush on her face, head lowered, saying:

"Why don’t you stay here tonight?"

"You’ve helped me so much, and I... I haven’t thanked you properly yet..."

He Xu’s demeanor right then was utterly seductive, yet simultaneously shy and vulnerable...

Especially when she slightly lowered her head, an endless charm was undoubtedly revealed at the neckline.

Zhou Yu was completely stunned.

"Gulp—"
