On the other side.

Mr. Yan led Zhou Yu to a reception hall at Red Leaf Villa.

After they took their seats, the waiter quickly brought over various precious fruits, along with brewed tea.

Zhou Yu picked up a cup of tea, took a deep breath, and instantly felt a clarity throughout his body.

He tasted it.

"Excellent tea!"

Mr. Yan hurriedly said with a smile,

"Mr. Zhou, this tea is top-quality Longjing, specially reserved here to entertain our most honored guests."

"Mr. Zhou, your relationship with the young lady is profound. I propose this tea instead of wine to honor you, offering this cup as an apology for the previous conflict."

With that, Mr. Yan picked up a cup of tea and drained it in one gulp.

Zhou Yu did not accept his sentiment. He set down his teacup and said coldly,

"Let’s skip the formalities. What’s going on with Tang Beibei and your Han Family’s so-called young lady?"

A flicker of sinister cold passed through Mr. Yan’s eyes, but his face still bore a full smile.

He picked up the teapot and poured another cup of tea for Zhou Yu, and while pouring, he subtly glanced at the waiter behind him, signaling him with his eyes.

Afterward, he put down the teapot, took a deep breath, and said,

"Mr. Zhou, here’s the thing."

"This matter dates back to fifteen years ago. It involves a change within the family, and it’s an ugly family secret that shouldn’t be revealed. However, for you, Mr. Zhou, I shall hold nothing back..."

Mr. Yan started to talk incessantly.

However, Zhou Yu listened for a while and realized something was off.

Mr. Yan had been talking nonstop about trivialities, and several minutes had passed without getting to the main point.

Zhou Yu’s expression darkened.

"Mr. Yan, are you beating around the bush with me?"

Mr. Yan quickly shook his head and said,

"Mr. Zhou, I do tend to be verbose, but my intent is not to leave out any details, trying to clarify everything..."

Just then,

a series of chaotic footsteps approached.

Suddenly, a large group of people burst into the hall, heading straight for Zhou Yu and Mr. Yan.

Zhou Yu turned to look, seeing that those entering were all above forty years old, with the lowest cultivation being at the Innate realm.

Alone, this group could probably annihilate most of the noble families in Capital City. Indeed, Red Leaf Villa was full of experts.

The leader among them, in particular, had a robust aura and a stern gaze, emanating a presence no weaker than Mr. Yan’s.

Mr. Yan stood up in surprise.

"Guardian Shan, what brings you here?"

The man known as Guardian Shan said coldly,

"Just now, someone violently intruded into the villa and fought fiercely in Yunshui Pavilion. Deputy General Zhou sent me here to bring the troublemakers to him."

After speaking, he fixed his gaze on Zhou Yu.

"Is this the young man?"

Mr. Yan quickly stepped in front of Zhou Yu.

"Guardian Shan, I’m truly sorry. It’s like a flood washed over the Dragon King Temple; all just a misunderstanding. Here’s what we’ll do: any damage done at Yunshui Pavilion will be on my account. Please also relay this to Deputy General Zhou, and let’s consider the matter settled."

Guardian Shan said coldly,

"This isn’t about compensation, but the reputation of Red Leaf Villa. Therefore, he must meet Deputy General Zhou."

Hearing this, Mr. Yan turned around, looking helpless, and said,

"Mr. Zhou, you see what a mess this has become—"

"How about this, you go with them for now, and I’ll immediately contact General Li to explain the situation. It’s not a big deal."

"Once the issue is resolved, I’ll explain the young lady’s situation in detail. How does that sound?"

Zhou Yu asked indifferently,

"Who are this General Li and Deputy General Zhou?"

"General Li’s name is Li Quan, and he is the person in charge here. Deputy General Zhou is named Zhou Chang and is the deputy general in charge of daily affairs here."

Zhou Yu squinted his eyes and said,

"If they want to see me, let them come here. Why should I go there?"

Upon hearing this, the mountain guard’s face darkened.

"Insolent, who do you think you are?"

Seeing that the mountain guard was angered, Mr. Yan hurriedly tried to smooth things over.

"Mountain guard, please, do not be angry. Let me handle this."

After stopping the mountain guard, Mr. Yan quickly approached Zhou Yu and whispered,

"Mr. Zhou, I’m afraid you have to go. Although Vice President Zhou is not a big deal, he has big shots from the Capital City behind him."

"The incident with the young lady back then was also somewhat related to the Capital City. If those big shots are alerted, things could become very troublesome."

"Rest assured, you go ahead with them. President Li should be back soon, and once he returns, a word from me to President Li will settle everything."

Mr. Yan’s face was full of remorse.

"By then, I will definitely explain everything to you, the whole cause and consequences."

Zhou Yu looked at Mr. Yan, and after a few seconds, the corner of his mouth curved slightly and he nodded.

"That sounds good."

Having said that, he took He Xu’s hand.

"Xu, let’s go take a look."

He Xu obediently nodded, clung to Zhou Yu’s arm, and walked out.

The mountain guards and others followed closely behind and left the reception hall.

As soon as Zhou Yu and the others had left, Mr. Yan’s expression changed.

In his eyes, a cold gleam flickered.

He immediately took out his cell phone and dialed Vice President Zhou’s number.

"Brother Zhou, that kid has gone with the mountain guards. I need your help this time to cripple him for me, but do not kill him. He’s to be handed over to me."

"When President Li returns, I will definitely put in a good word for you with him."

On the other end of the phone, a cheerful voice came through.

"Hehe, Brother Yan, you’re too polite, it’s just a trifle."

"There’s nothing Red Leaf Villa fears more than troublemakers. For every one that arises, I can handle one."

"By the way, Mr. Yan, President Li seems to have gone to meet a big shot today. Do you know who it is?"

Although Vice President Zhou and President Li were a duo, there was a big gap in power and status, and there were many secrets Vice President Zhou wasn’t privy to.

Mr. Yan responded with a slight smile,

"Of course, I know."

Vice President Zhou’s tone became urgent as he quickly asked,

"Brother Yan, could you tell me?"

"Of course."

"This big shot is none other than Miss Ye Mengyun of the Ye Family."

Upon hearing these three words, Vice President Zhou’s tone noticeably changed.

He excitedly said,

"Brother Yan, are you serious?"

"Of course, you know my relationship with President Li."

"President Li is on his way back with Miss Ye right now."

Vice President Zhou hurriedly said,

"Brother Yan, I promise to take care of what you asked me to do."

"And... in front of President Li and Miss Ye, I hope you could speak highly of me."

"Hahaha, sure, sure!"

Mr. Yan laughed.

After hanging up the phone, Mr. Yan revealed a malevolent expression.

"Zhou, you dare to mess with me in Red Leaf Villa, I’ll make sure you won’t survive this!"
