Zhang Jiucheng looked over and froze.
He had seen Zhao Ritian before!
Wasn't this Chen Sandun!?
Then his gaze landed on Lu Chengwen, and his heart jolted again!
Lu Chengwen gave him a slight shake of the head, which Chicken Head noticed.
Zhang Jiucheng immediately understood!
To be honest, when the extermination order had been issued, he had panicked and gone to the Yu Family Patriarch to ask about the inside story.
The Yu Family Patriarch had been even more panicked than him and had gone to Yu Shasha for answers. Yu Shasha... hadn't panicked at all. She had merely told them not to get involved and said everything would be fine.
With that reassurance, the Yu Family Patriarch told Zhang Jiucheng that it was fine. It was probably a game being played by the higher-ups; nothing major would happen. His daughter had firsthand intelligence, and it couldn't possibly be wrong!
That was why Zhang Jiucheng had dared to speak up for Lu Chengwen.

On the other hand, if he betrayed Lu Chengwen, not only would he earn the reputation of someone who switched sides with the wind, making no one trust him in the future, but
