July 28, night.
The Zhang Family Villa, on the outskirts of the imperial capital.
Zhang Yansheng held up his phone, the muscles in his face twitching.
"Dad, Ding Pojun just called me. He put it very bluntly: if I dared make the Gu Family unhappy, he'd make me unhappy!" Zhang Yansheng spoke quickly, his anger tightly suppressed.
"And there's the Zeng Family. That fortune-teller actually mocked me with all that yin-and-yang talk! He said I'd suffer a bloody disaster soon! Then he tried to sell me talismans he'd drawn to avert calamity! What the hell kind of fortune-telling is that? It's a curse!"
The person on the other end seemed to ask something, and Zhang Yansheng immediately shook his head.
"Not Zeng Jianguo. His son—the sworn enemy you had back when you attended the Martial Arts University, Zeng Aijia!"
Then he added,
"And worst of all is Huang Lei! He actually got secular agencies to investigate our businesses in the imperial capital. Either tax evasion or failed fire inspections! Every one of them has been shut down for rectification! In just a few hours, eighty percent of our business in the imperial capital has ground to a halt!"
"You're asking why?" Zhang Yansheng practically roared. "Because of Gu Jinzhi's wife—Jiang Xue!"
"You don't know what happened?" Zhang Yansheng was unbearably agitated. "That's because the Investigation Bureau and Martial Arts Alliance jointly sealed off the news."
"Dad, you have no idea how outrageous that little girl is... If a friend at the Investigation Bureau hadn't repeatedly sworn to me that the information was reliable, I wouldn't have believed it even if you beat me to death!"
"I'm telling you, blah blah blah..."
"Blah blah blah blah~~~"
Three minutes later...
Zhang Yansheng summed up, "Give me a straight answer.
