Chapter 997: Situ Zhaonan
"Let me do it." Fatty Guo couldn't hold it in any longer and was already eager to give it a try.
"No, I'll do it." Jing Yuan stepped forward and stood in front of Fatty Guo.
At least he had a sense of proportion in his actions. If Fatty Guo was allowed to come, there might not be much trouble that would happen.
Situ Jing was even more surprised to see these people not only unafraid, but scrambling for the first place.
Could it be that they really are some big shot?
"Second brother!"
Suddenly, Situ Jing looked up and screamed.
Zhen Quede, who was about to go over to teach Bai Chen and others a lesson, was also stunned at this moment and turned around to look.
At the corner of the second floor, a slender man in white clothes was walking slowly.
This man has delicate features, a jade face and thin lips, and he looks like a ruthless master.
However, his temperament is a bit different, not at all rustic as expected in a small town.
"Little sister, I haven't seen you for many years, and you've gained weight again." The man walked towards me with a smile.
At the same time, Bai Chen could notice that everyone around him showed a touch of respect. Even the restaurant owner in the distance had a solemn look on his face.
Xie Lingfeng, a restaurant owner, had already attracted Bai Chen's attention, and now there was the second son of the Situ family, which aroused his curiosity even more.
It seems that Guixue Town is indeed a crouching tiger, hidden dragon.
"Second brother, when did you come back?" Situ Jing ran up to the man and said with admiration.
"I just came back." The man smiled lightly and glanced at Bai Chen and others: "Did something happen here?"
Hearing this, Situ Jing's face suddenly darkened.
"Ah, Second Young Master, long time no see!" Zhen Quede grinned: "You came just in time. These people from the Bai family received the hydrangeas from the Fourth Miss. However, not only did they not express gratitude to God, they actually refused the marriage in public. This matter concerns the face of your Situ family, what do you think we should do?"
"Oh, is there anything else?"
The man patted Situ Jing's round shoulder and then came to Bai Chen.
Their eyes met, Bai Chen smiled calmly: "The manager of the Bai family, Bai Chen."
"Situ's family, Situ Zhaonan."
The two looked at each other and smiled.
what's the situation?
Fatty Guo and Jing Yuan looked at each other in surprise, wondering what they were thinking.
"We come from a small, remote country and don't know your country's rules, so we were very offended."
Bai Chen looked at Situ Zhaonan with a smile and said calmly.
How offensive...
Situ Zhaonan narrowed his eyes with a smile, thinking about Bai Chen's words in his mind, and couldn't help but fall into silence.
After a long while, he finally said: "Since we are guests from afar, it is a misunderstanding. Our Situ family has always been friendly to the people and will never make things difficult for you. Let's let this matter go."
"W-what?!"
Situ Jing's eyes widened in disbelief. Is this still the second brother she admires most?
"Little sister, let's go."
Situ Zhaonan didn't say anything. He took Situ Jing's hand and led everyone downstairs.
For a moment, only Bai Chen and others were left on the second floor of the restaurant, and Zhen Quede, who looked confused.
"Is that still Situ Zhaonan? The proud man who shone throughout Guixue Town back then went out to practice for a few years, and now he came back and turned into a coward? Bah!" Zhen Quede spat angrily, with disgust on his face.
Situ and his party walked to the street, passed by the people who were watching, and finally came to an uninhabited alley.
"Second brother, why did you let them go so easily? That fat man broke off the engagement in public. How can I go out in the future?" Situ Jing became angrier as he thought about it.
Situ Zhaonan smiled, his calm eyes twinkling slightly: "You can go out as much as you want. Ordinary people who have their engagements broken off may receive blank looks and ridicule from others, but in this Guixue Town, I can guarantee that no one will If I dare to talk about you behind your back, even today’s matter will not be spread.”
Guixue Town has always been controlled by the Situ Mansion and the Potian Gang. Although the people here are relatively wealthy, they also know that they can never offend these two forces.
Therefore, what Situ Zhaonan said was not unreasonable. Those who were present just now had already dispersed with their tails between their legs. How dare they spread what they saw and heard.
"That's what I said, but I'm still not willing to accept it!" Situ Jing was so angry that she had never suffered such injustice in her entire life.
"Little sister, if you can express such a tone, I will definitely do it to you, but just now I discovered that those people have extraordinary temperaments. Although I can't put it into words, I always feel that they are not ordinary people."
Hearing Situ Zhaonan's words, Situ Jing calmed down: "Brother, if you say so, I also noticed it, especially that young man in black robe. His despise for everything makes him look like a big shot. Same."
"Well, my little sister has grown up and knows how to watch people's emotions."
"Brother, you made fun of me again!"
"Let's go home. Let's see if the Potian Gang can fight against those people, and then we can make plans."
Situ Zhaonan waved his hand in the distance, and two carriages came running over.
…
Above the restaurant.
Zhen Quede didn't realize that he had been used as cannon fodder, and was still clenching his fists provocatively.
"Boy, our Potian Gang is not as easy to talk to as the Situ family. When you come here to do business, you have to obey the rules here. The filial piety fee must not be less."
"I owe you uncle!"
Fatty Guo was about to get angry, but Bai Chen grabbed him.
"Don't be angry."
Bai Chen's eyes swept over Xie Lingfeng's body in the corner, and then he took out a piece of silver from his waist with a faint smile and walked towards Zhen Quede.
"This is the filial piety fee for our Baijia Clothing Village this month. Please accept it."
With that said, Bai Chen had already stretched out his hand holding the silver.
"A piece of silver?" Zhen Quede snorted: "Boy, your filial piety fee is too thin."
"No, I don't feel thin."
Bai Chen grasped Zhen Quede's palm, and then forcefully put the silver into his palm.
"In the future, I will still need your Potian Gang Duoduo to help take care of the business of Jinxiu Cloth Store, don't you think so?"
After patting Zhen Quede's shoulder, Bai Chen smiled calmly and walked straight to the stairs with the three people behind him.
"You..." Zhen Quede was furious as if he was being played. However, when he was about to curse, his face suddenly trembled.
Feeling something was wrong in his palm, he quickly looked down and his eyes almost bulged.
"Fuck!"
Looking at the round piece of silver in his hand, Zhen Quede was horrified.
Not only was the silver shaped into a round shape, but such a large piece of silver was shaped into the size of a fingernail, and even the density was changed.
Who is that young man in black robe? !
Is this an illusion...!
Zhen Quede grabbed his hair and looked confused.
