Zhan You's expression was a bit exaggerated, for fear that others wouldn't be able to see that he was being pretentious.
"Master-in-law, how can our Zhan family's shops be given to outsiders? Xiaohua, please draft a few more contracts another day. These shops must belong to the Zhan family!"
Ximen Hao started to show off again.
"Yeah! Got it!"
Zhan Linghua nodded, then glanced at Mr. Hu provocatively.
Mrs. Hu's face turned green and white with anger, and finally sat down on the chair, almost not fainting again.
The supervisor was killed, the contract was destroyed, and Ximen Hao took all the shops into his hands.
"Hahaha! This son-in-law of our Zhan family is quite a character!"
Zhanping suddenly laughed and said.
"Haha, that's right. Master, your son-in-law is not bad!"
Zhan An is also a sycophant, and I don’t know if the person filming is Ximen Hao or Zhan You.
"Hahaha! My little flower still has good eyesight!"
Zhan You was in a good mood at this time. In any case, these shops were completely named Zhan.
As for what Ximen Hao’s purpose is, we can only wait and see what the consequences will be.
As for Zhan Lingfeng, the eldest son, he had no way to deal with such a fierce Ximen Hao, and was even a little worried about his future position as head of the family...
At this moment, the door of the private room was pushed open.
The head of the Hong family, Hong Tian, the second head of the family, Hong Feng, and Hong Feng’s daughter, Hong Hong, were also the original witnesses of Gale Island.
In addition to the three people, there are also two old men, who should be the elders of the Hong family.
The appearance of people from the Hong family made the private room instantly quiet, and the air instantly became a little solemn.
The Hong family members also did not speak, but walked in, sat down, and the free man carefully closed the eight doors.
Hong Tian and Hong Feng sat side by side, Hong sat on one side, and the other two Hong family elders sat on the other side.
Although the two families have no hatred, as a business family, you will inevitably have entangled interests.
Today they came here because of rumors again, so they were not in a good mood.
What they were unhappy about was that the city lord actually came forward to ask them to break the rumor, but they were actually very unwilling to do so. The rumor had little impact on them, but it had a huge impact on the Zhan family.
The atmosphere was once awkward. There were more than a dozen people looking at me and me, but no one spoke. It felt like...
"Ahem, here...it seems like I am the only one with a surname, right?"
Ximen Hao coughed twice and then said.
"Hmph! It's good that you know. Since you have a foreign surname, why are you sitting here?"
Why did Hong Feng dislike Ximen Hao? It was this guy who ruined his plan.
Of course, the people of the Hong family still don’t know that Ximen Hao is a ‘relative’ of the city lord.
"Haha, Hong Feng, since I have a foreign surname, of course, except the eldest lady, because she is the person involved. So, let me start."
Ximen Hao stood up, as long as he interfered in the middle, no one would get better.
"Hmph! Zhan You, I heard that he is your guest? Do you need the guest to come forward for this kind of thing?"
Hong Tian finally spoke, but his words were full of sarcasm.
"Haha, Hong Tian, I forgot to introduce you. Ximen Hao is my son-in-law."
Zhan You smiled.
Everyone looked surprised at first, then glanced at Zhan Linghua and said nothing.
"Okay! Since everyone agrees, let's get started. After all, this is the city lord's order. I believe everyone will not let the city lord down, right?"
Ximen Hao first decided the scene, then looked at the Hong family and said:
"Master Hong, I heard that this rumor was spread by your Hong family. You should be able to dispel it, right?"
"Fuck! You are so slanderous!"
Hongfeng took action.
"Ximen Hao, right? Don't buckle your hat randomly, it will kill someone!"
Hong Tian looked at Ximen Hao with a murderous look on his face. Why is this guy so shameless?
"Haha, why are you so anxious? Then I would like to ask Mr. Hongfeng, is the transaction between you and the eldest lady true?"
Ximen Hao was not anxious at all, he wished the water would become muddier.
"Hmph! That's right! I have a deal with the eldest lady, so what does that mean? She was the one who found me! If your Zhan family doesn't work together, can you blame our Hong family?"
Hong Feng didn't hide anything. The more chaotic the Zhan family was, the better it would be to their benefit without any harm.
"snort!"
Zhan You snorted coldly and received confirmation from Hong Feng that he had no doubt that the person beside him had really colluded with outsiders to harm his daughter.
At this time, Mrs. Hu knew that it was useless to say anything, and she was so angry with Ximen Hao that she could not speak, so she could only lower her head and remain silent.
"Haha, since Mr. Hong Feng admits it, that's all. Well, colluding with outsiders is a trivial matter. Now let's talk about it. Are you having an affair with the eldest lady?"
Ximen Hao was directly heartbroken.
"You fart!"
Hongfeng took action.
"You're talking nonsense! Pfft!"
Mr. Hu jumped up and spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Ahem!"
Zhan You coughed twice and asked Ximen Hao to pay attention. After all, it was too embarrassing.
"Oh! It seems that there is no more. It seems that it is really a rumor."
Ximen Hao looked astonished.
"Of course not! I, Hong Feng, don't have any women? How can I like an old lady?"
Hong Feng seemed to be insulted.
"father!"
Hong Hong refused. What her father said before was too...shameless.
Although Mrs. Hu was angry at being called an old lady, she still proved her innocence and could only break her teeth and swallow it.
"Okay! Then according to the instructions of the city lord, quell the rumors. Head of the Hong family, you should do something, right?"
Ximen Hao once again passed the blame to the Hong family.
"Mad! Ximen Hao! Did you do this on purpose? Who are you? Stop spitting blood!"
Hong Tian slapped the table and glared at Ximen Hao.
"Fuck! I'm a relative of the city lord! What! Don't you really want to hang out in Su Di City?"
Ximen Hao suddenly went berserk, even more violent than Hong Tian.
"puff!"
Zhan Linghua laughed, but quickly stopped smiling.
"You...what did you say? You are..."
Hong Tian was stunned, Hong Feng was stunned, and everyone in the Hong family was stunned.
"Haha, from the Hong family, my virtuous son-in-law is right. He is indeed a relative of the Lord of the City. Yesterday, the Lord of the City sent someone to the Zhan family to act as a matchmaker, which helped him and his daughter get married."
Zhan You also learned how to be shameless from Ximen Hao. Who doesn’t know how to climb up the ladder?
Everyone in the Hong family was shocked. No wonder Ximen Hao was so arrogant. It turned out that he had a backer behind him!
Of course, they would not think Ximen Hao was talking nonsense, because it would be a capital crime for the city lord to know.
And they really don't know that Ximen Hao is just talking nonsense.
"Everyone, do you have any other opinions? Although there is no evidence, this rumor will do no harm to your Hong family, right? Besides, we are not going to find out who spread the rumor now, but we must suppress the rumor quickly, right?"
Ximen Hao became a peacemaker again, without the arrogance he had just now.
But at this moment, he felt secretly happy: It was so cool to have a backer!
Hong Tian and others looked at each other, then moved their lips slightly, obviously transmitting messages.
Zhan You, on the other hand, closed his eyes and rested his mind. He really didn't have the shame to intervene in this matter.
As for the elders of the two families, they came to the earthquake site and had no say at all.
Ximen Hao was not in a hurry. He came here mainly for the contract and to eliminate their suspicion of spreading rumors. As for how to solve the rumors, he didn't care much.
As a result, the private room fell into silence again. Only the lips of everyone moved slightly, and voices were transmitted back and forth. Even the two elders of the Zhan family began to transmit voices.
Zhan Linghua finally breathed a sigh of relief. The shop was now available, and the suspicion of the rumor was cleared away by Ximen Hao's nonsense.
Then, next, it depends on how his father will deal with the Hu family. After all, this matter is too big.
