After listening to Lin Zheng's words, Zhao Qiqi hesitated slightly, then smiled bitterly and said: "To be honest, I don't want to antagonize the Long family, and my master will not allow me to do this.
But you are a very important person in my life, so if you really have a conflict with the Long family, I will choose to help you."
"I'm glad you can say that.
Of course, I won’t make it difficult to be a friend.”
Lin Zheng smiled happily.
"Long Wushuang is just a spoiled child, why do you have to argue with him?
Besides, Mrs. Long Er has already apologized to you."
Zhao Qiqi said.
Lin Zheng smiled and said: "Some people will only remember lessons after suffering losses."
"Forget it, I won't tell you this."
Zhao Qiqi shook his head irritably, then looked at Chen Shu who was leaning next to Lin Zheng, and said: "Miss Chen Shu, my master is very strict in recruiting disciples. It is your blessing that you can win her favor. You
But you have to think about it carefully.
I also really hope that we can become senior sisters."
"This incident was so sudden that I had no idea for a while, but I will seriously consider it when I go back."
Chen Shudao.
"I hope you can give us good news."
Zhao Qiqi smiled.
…
After Jiulian layman and people from the Long family arrived, all the guests at the banquet had arrived, and Zhou Zifan's birthday banquet officially began.
Zhou Zifan, accompanied by a beautiful woman, slowly walked down from the second floor amidst the melodious music.
That beauty was the one who came in with Mrs. Long Er before. According to Zhao Qiqi, she was Long Wuxia, Long Wushuang's sister.
Zhou Zihao, on the other hand, walked out of the kitchen with several people in chef uniforms, pushing several layers of cakes.
Everyone sang happy birthday together and congratulated Zhou Zifan on his birthday.
During the cake cutting process, Zhou Zifan suddenly looked at Lin Zheng: "Brother Lin Zheng, can you please help me cut the cake together?"
In front of such a person, Lin Zheng naturally couldn't refuse, so he nodded and walked forward, holding the knife with Zhou Zifan, and cut the first cut of the cake.
At this time, everyone applauded, except Long Wushuang, whose eyes almost burst out of anger.
Mrs. Long Er sighed secretly and quietly grabbed her son's hand.
But Long Wushuang flicked his sleeves and left the hall.
After cutting the cake, everyone chose what they wanted to eat amidst the beautiful music, and then sat and chatted with acquaintances.
Zhou Zifan invited Lin Zheng to dance the first dance with her.
"Brother Lin Zheng, you are a very good dancer. Have you ever taken any special lessons?"
Zhou Zifan leaned against Lin Zheng and asked in a low voice.
Lin Zheng did not answer Zhou Zifan, but looked at Zhou Zifan with burning eyes and said: "Is Miss Zhou using me as a shield?
Do you know how much trouble this will cause me?"
"Brother Lin Zheng, I'm sorry, but I can't help it.
Everyone else is afraid of Long Wushuang's family background, so I can only choose you."
Zhou Zifan confessed a little apologetically.
"You should have told me this kind of thing in advance.
Furthermore, how do you know that I am not afraid of the power of the Long family?"
Lin Zheng said a little angry.
No one will feel good if they are taken advantage of.
"I overheard grandpa's conversation with Fat Grandpa and Thin Grandpa. They said that Master Lin behind you is very powerful, so... Brother Lin Zheng, I'm really sorry. I can't help it. Why don't you give me a good beating?
Want to vent your anger?"
Zhou Zifan pouted and said pitifully.
Lin Zheng said somewhat speechlessly: "Now that I have caused trouble, what's the point of beating you again?
Remember, next time if something happens, tell me in advance and I might be able to help you. If you dare to use me again, don’t blame me for being rude."
"I won't dare to do it next time!"
Zhou Zifan nodded quickly, and then asked with some worry: "What will you do if Long Wushuang troubles you?"
"Now I think about thinking about me."
Lin Zheng snorted coldly. At this time, the dance was finished. Lin Zheng let go of Zhou Zifan's hand and said, "I, Lin Zheng, don't cause trouble, but I'm not afraid of trouble either."
As Zhou Zihao said before, this birthday party was just a cover, and the purpose was to deal with the Zhou family's trouble.
Zhou Family Manor, a secret reception room.
Zhou Yuntian invited several important people to come here to discuss matters alone.
Among them were Lin Zheng, Jiulian layman, Mrs. Long Er, mother and daughter Long Wuxia, as well as the fat and thin elders and Zhou Yuntian.
As the host and the host, Zhou Yuntian personally poured tea for everyone. After everyone had tea poured into their cups, he sat on his seat and said, "I'm very happy that everyone can come to this banquet today."
Happy and grateful.
Without further ado, I invite you here because I have something to ask for."
Jiulian layman slowly said: "Mr. Zhou, since you are sitting here, you are one of our own, you might as well speak out."
Zhou Yuntian first greeted him respectfully, and then said solemnly: "Except for Lin Xiaoyou, the layman and the second lady must all know about what happened to my Zhou family more than 20 years ago, and next year is the thirty-year appointment, so please
The lay people, the Long family, and Lin Xiaoyou can help my Zhou family."
"That mysterious man kidnapped Yu Yingxue back then, and we haven't settled the accounts with him yet. Does he really dare to come?"
Mrs. Long Er said.
"That person came from the Cave Heaven Secret Realm, and his strength was already superb back then. Over the years, I'm afraid he will become even more sophisticated.
It may be difficult to deal with next year's agreement."
Jiulian layman said.
Zhou Yuntian nodded and said with a heavy expression: "What the layman said is absolutely true. Until now, I still don't know how I offended that person and why we made this thirty-year agreement... That mysterious person
When it appeared back then, it was inexplicable..."
"Alas! Now that things have come to this, it's time for me to tell the truth."
Mrs. Long Er sighed at this time, took out a letter and handed it to Zhou Yuntian: "This is the autographed letter that the old lady asked me to give to you. As for the origin of the thirty-year agreement, you will know after reading it.
Already."
"What?
Could this matter have anything to do with my little sister?"
Zhou Yuntian said with some surprise.
Zhou Yuntian's little sister Zhou Yunzhi is the current old lady who married into the Long family and Zhou Zihao's aunt.
According to seniority, Long Wushuang also has to call her grandma, but it is not a kiss, because Long Wushuang's father, the second master of the Long family, was born to the old man of the Long family and his second wife, and Zhou Yunyun was the eldest wife of the first family.
Therefore, Long Wushuang and Zhou Zifan are not close relatives and have no blood relationship at all.
The fact that the Zhou family has been able to develop smoothly over the years and expand its business to such a large scale is because of this relationship.
Otherwise, such a large amount of assets would have been snatched away by people from other forces.
