God! ...

Zhou Yutang snapped out of his daze, his face instantly turning incredibly gloomy.

Now that Lu Gongfeng has been defeated, there is no one left around him who can deal with Ye Feng.

Even if we were to settle accounts with him, we should wait until later; continuing to entangle ourselves with him would likely result in immediate losses.

He suppressed his anger and said in a deep voice, "Ye Feng, I admit defeat today. You can leave."

"Oh?"

Ye Feng raised an eyebrow and said jokingly, "Young Master Zhou is really flexible. Seeing that he can't beat us, he lets us leave."

"Don't you know the saying... it's easy to invite a god in, but difficult to send him away?"

Zhou Yutang's face darkened, and he asked coldly, "What do you want?"

"Simple."

Ye Feng smiled faintly: "As long as you apologize to my people and offer some compensation, we'll leave now."

"His men?"

Xing Wen keenly grasped the key point in his words, and her pretty face blushed slightly.

Does Ye Feng's statement imply that he also cares about himself?

Zhou Yutang looked like he'd just eaten shit. He never expected that even though he wasn't going to pursue the matter further, Ye Feng still wouldn't let it go.

"Kid, don't push your luck!"

He angrily said, "Your woman did suffer some injustice, but it's all because you extorted ten million from me first and injured quite a few of my people."

"So what if I bully you?"

Ye Feng scoffed, "Weren't you so arrogant just now, thinking the Zhou family was powerful and bullying others?"

"I'll show you what it feels like to be bullied!"

"you..."

Zhou Yutang could no longer contain his anger and roared, "Kid, I admit you can hit me."

"But the Zhou family isn't to be trifled with either. Are you sure you want to push things to the extreme?"

Ye Feng shook his head: "You're wrong about that. I already showed mercy just now."

"If I go too far, will you still be standing there yelling at me?"

After he finished speaking, a sharp aura suddenly emanated from him.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Lu Gongfeng quickly approached Zhou Yutang and whispered, "Young Master Zhou, we are not in a good position now. Why don't we agree to his conditions first?"

Zhou Yutang gritted his teeth, suppressing his anger, and coldly asked Ye Feng, "Speak, what compensation do you want?"

"That's right, a wise person knows when to yield."

Ye Feng smiled faintly: "As I just said, you have to apologize to my person first, pay her ten million in medical expenses, and then just give me some appearance fee."

"What appearance fee?"

Zhou Yutang frowned and looked at him.

"Young Master Zhou, do you think everyone has as much free time as you?"

"I dropped everything to come here, so asking for an appearance fee isn't unreasonable, is it?"

"Since this is a jade shop, let me pick out a few pieces to offset my appearance fee."

He had just sensed that several items in Xiangyu Pavilion were made of spirit stones.

Zhou Yutang's face turned pale and then red, and he cursed Ye Feng's ancestors for eighteen generations in his heart.

They came to his shop to cause trouble and even beat up his people, and they still want an appearance fee?

Who gave him that face?

It’s so deceiving!

"Young Master Zhou, I'm easy to talk to, right? I won't ask for much, just give me these three items."

As Ye Feng spoke, he raised his hand and pointed to the bulletproof glass display case in the center of the store.

I clicked on the Tianhuang stone seal, the jadeite plaque, and the Hetian jade Buddha in turn.

Zhou Yutang followed his hand and his face immediately darkened.

Each of these three items is worth at least tens of millions. Does this bastard really think he's a sucker?!

His eyes darted around, and he said in a deep voice, "These three items are the store's prized possessions. The display case key isn't here; I need to send someone back to get it."

Ye Feng gave a cold smile and waved his hand: "Go."

After saying that, he ignored Zhou Yutang, walked to Xing Wen's side, looked at the handprint on her face, and asked, "Does it hurt?"

"No...it doesn't hurt anymore..."

Xing Wen lowered her head slightly, subconsciously avoiding his gaze.

"Let me see."

As Ye Feng spoke, he gently placed his palm on her face.

Xing Wen's heart was pounding wildly. She wanted to get away, but she was also reluctant to leave.

Suddenly, she noticed that the pain in her cheek had disappeared, as if it had never happened.

"alright."

Ye Feng removed his hand.

Xing Wen was very curious, so she took out a small mirror she carried with her and looked at it. To her surprise, the handprint had disappeared.

"Is...is this the power of love?"

Xing Wen's mind was filled with endless fantasies. She felt that her reunion with Ye Feng was no coincidence, but rather a sign from heaven that something was destined to happen between them...

A moment later.

A large group of menacing bodyguards, armed with weapons, rushed into the store and quickly surrounded Ye Feng.

Just as they surrounded Ye Feng, two women arrived at the entrance of Xiangyu Pavilion; they were Zhao Shiqing and Zhou Wei.

Ye Feng glanced at the surrounding bodyguards and said calmly, "Young Master Zhou, it seems you're still not convinced?"

"I admire your mother!"

Zhou Yutang cursed from outside the crowd, "I was just using delaying tactics, but I didn't expect you, you idiot, to fall for it."

"I'll show you today what happens when you offend the Zhou family!"

As he spoke, his eyes fell on Zhao Shiqing and Zhou Wei. He quickly walked to the door and asked Zhou Wei, "Second Sister, what brings you here?"

"I heard someone came to Xiangyu Pavilion to cause trouble, so I came to check it out."

As Zhou Wei spoke, her gaze swept into the store. Ye Feng was surrounded by bodyguards, making it impossible to see who he was.

She and Zhao Shiqing had just finished shopping at the raw stone market when they encountered a group of menacing Zhou family bodyguards. After asking around, they learned that someone from Xiangyu Pavilion was causing trouble, so they followed them.

"What an idiot! I'll teach him a lesson later!"

Zhou Yutang raised his hand and pointed to the crowd. The bodyguards tactfully made way for them, and the two women immediately saw Ye Feng inside.

"Master Ye?"

Zhao Shiqing looked surprised, then her brows furrowed slightly.

Ye Feng was also somewhat surprised to see her; what a coincidence, they had met again.

Zhou Yutang looked at Ye Feng, then at Zhao Shiqing, and was quite surprised.

He never imagined that Ye Feng would know Zhao Shiqing.

Zhao Shiqing not only has the Zhao family backing her up, but she is also the wife of the secretary of Zhonghai City. The combined strength of the two is much stronger than that of the Zhou family.

"Master Ye, what happened?"

Zhao Shiqing was curious: how come Ye Feng had gotten into a conflict with Zhou Yutang so soon after meeting him?

Ye Feng didn't know the specific details, so he glanced at Xing Wen, who understood and explained the situation.

Zhao Shiqing nodded and looked at Ye Feng: "Master Ye, rest assured, I will uphold justice for you in this matter."

Immediately, he looked at Zhou Yutang and said in a slightly deep voice, "Young Master Zhou, Master Ye is my benefactor."

"If you bully him, you are making an enemy of me."

"For Weiwei's sake, apologize now. If Master Ye forgives you, I won't pursue the matter any further."

"Madam Li..."

Zhou Yutang wanted to explain further.

But Zhou Wei interrupted him, saying, "Yutang, do as Sister Shiqing says and apologize to this young lady!"

She knew Zhao Shiqing well; she was usually gentle and refined, so for her to say such harsh words clearly meant she was genuinely angry.

If they were to fall out with Zhao Shiqing over this matter, it would be a huge problem for the entire Zhou family.
