Chapter 728: Chapter 728 Punishment!

Ye Mengyun’s words cast the reception room into utter silence.

Everyone looked on in a daze, their eyes fixed on Ye Mengyun.

Had they heard wrong?

The tone sounded like a conversation between old friends.

Especially for Deputy Director Zhou and Ao Ziye, who mere seconds earlier were sharpening their knives in eagerness to finish Zhou Yu and curry favor with Ye Mengyun, their expressions froze on their faces the next second when they heard her words.

But the first to snap out of it was Li Quan.

On the way, he had learned that Ye Mengyun was looking for someone named Zhou Yu.

He was calculating how to quickly find Zhou Yu, and suddenly, there was Zhou Yu?

For a moment, Li Quan could not make sense of the situation unfolding before his eyes.

Then, Zhou Yu spoke up.

"Miss Ye, you’ll have to ask your own people about that."

"Of course, I have just witnessed how your Red Leaf Villa’s employees slander others and distort the truth. I’m afraid even Miss Ye won’t be able to get a straight answer."

With those words, Zhou Yu was clearly insinuating that Ye Mengyun had no control over her subordinates.

Everyone tensed, surprised that this young man dared speak to Miss Ye like that.

All eyes turned to Ye Mengyun, waiting for her response.

Ye Mengyun’s face darkened instantly.

This guy was actually ridiculing her in front of so many people.

It was infuriating!

If it wasn’t for the fact that he had saved her grandfather and that she came here to find him for a reason, she would have liked to give him a good beating.

But, she probably wasn’t his match...

And that made her even angrier.

Ye Mengyun, with a stern face, turned to look at Li Quan and Deputy Director Zhou.

"What exactly is going on here?"

Seeing Ye Mengyun’s current expression, even a fool could tell that Ye Mengyun and Zhou Yu not only knew each other but also had a significant relationship.

Deputy Director Zhou was scared witless. Cold sweat streamed from his forehead.

Li Quan was also in complete panic.

Initially, when this incident occurred, he wasn’t at the villa and could have put the entire blame on Deputy Director Li.

However, he suddenly remembered something else – earlier, a subordinate reported to him that the incident started due to Mr. Yan, with Zhou Yu and Mr. Yan fighting at the Ruoshui Pavilion.

In that case, he could not claim to be uninvolved.

In truth, his relationship with Mr. Yan was not that strong, just some mutual business interests.

But now, with this commotion, he was embroiled too.

The situation had escalated.

"What? You’ve gone deaf? Or mute?"

"If you don’t speak now, then you might as well never speak again."

Ye Mengyun’s aura was downright terrifying.

Deputy Director Zhou trembled all over, finally coming to his senses. With a face full of panic, he stammered:

"Miss... Miss Ye... "

"This matter, I... I... It has nothing to do with me. It was Li Quan. Yes, it was Li Quan who told me to deal with that... um, to handle Mr. Zhou as soon as possible."

"I just followed his orders and had the mountain guards take action..."

Upon hearing this, Li Quan’s face turned extremely ugly.

"Nonsense!"

Li Quan immediately looked at Ye Mengyun.

"Miss Ye, this... it’s all a misunderstanding..."

"I apologize to Mr. Zhou. I will offer a substantial compensation. I will resolve the issue properly..."

Ye Mengyun coldly huffed:

"I’m asking about what happened."

"I don’t want to hear this nonsense from you."

"This is your last chance to explain."

Li Quan lamented, utterly clueless about what had happened.

His complexion turned ugly as he said:

"This... Miss Ye, I was not at the villa at the time, I... really don’t know..."

A hint of hatred flashed in the eyes of Deputy General Manager Zhou.

The implication of Li Quan’s words was clear; he wanted to distance himself from the situation, pushing the blame onto Zhou.

But Zhou was not willing to take the fall, and he immediately recounted the events.

"Miss Ye, this is what happened."

"Mr. Yan is a friend of General Manager Li, and we didn’t dare intervene in what Mr. Yan was doing... that’s how this situation arose..."

After listening, Li Quan was completely dumbfounded.

He hadn’t expected Mr. Yan to have kidnapped a woman and brought her to the villa.

What was even more fatal was that this woman turned out to be Zhou Yu’s woman!

It was over!!!

Li Quan’s face turned deathly pale.

If he could turn back time, he would definitely have kicked Mr. Yan out without hesitation and completely distanced himself from him.

But now, it was all too late.

Thump!

Li Quan knelt on the ground, no longer able to utter a single word.

Meanwhile, Ye Mengyun finally understood what had happened.

She glanced at Zhou Yu, then at He Xu beside him.

No wonder this guy was in such a frenzied panic; anyone would be anxious if such a beautiful woman were kidnapped.

At this moment, Ye Mengyun’s pretty face was so gloomy it looked like it could drip water.

Red Leaf Villa was an investment set up by the Ye Family, and it was registered under her name.

The occurrence of such an incident only highlighted her lack of management, which might not be a big deal in ordinary noble families, but in the Ye Family, it was a serious matter.

At the very least, her grandfather Ye Zhongshan was a man who couldn’t tolerate any flaws, especially since the victim was Zhou Yu, the man who had saved his life.

If her grandfather found out, she would definitely be punished.

With these thoughts in mind, Ye Mengyun clenched her fists tightly.

"Zhou Chang!"

"You’ve got some nerve."

"What exactly did you report to me just now?"

"You dare to deceive and hoodwink me brazenly, do you think I’m an idiot?"

Deputy General Manager Zhou was so frightened that he nearly wet himself.

He had thought that after he told the truth, Ye Mengyun would first punish Li Quan, but instead, she came straight at him.

Thump!

Deputy General Manager Zhou knelt on the ground.

"Miss Ye... I didn’t know... your relationship with him, if I had known... I definitely would have..."

Deputy General Manager Zhou was so scared that his brain went blank, completely losing his usual slick demeanor.

Little did he know, his pleas for mercy only added fuel to Ye Mengyun’s fire.

"Guards, take him away! Lock him up and thoroughly investigate every issue during his tenure at Red Leaf Villa. After everything is clear, apply the family law for his punishment."

As Ye Mengyun’s words fell, her bodyguards immediately rushed forward, pinned Deputy General Manager Zhou to the ground, and dragged him out.

Just as Deputy General Manager Zhou was about to plead for mercy, a guard kicked him in the mouth, shattering all his teeth.

Deputy General Manager Zhou let out a piercing scream but was mercilessly dragged away.

The other people in the reception room, witnessing this scene, were almost too frightened to breathe.

Especially Li Quan, who couldn’t stop himself from shaking uncontrollably.

According to family law, Deputy General Manager Zhou probably wouldn’t have enough lives to die a hundred times over.

What about him then?

And at that moment, Ye Mengyun’s gaze turned towards him.
