135: The eight major families are waiting outside!

“Oh?!”

Guo Feng took a sip of water, glanced at the eight people, and chuckled, “Are you trying to scare me by shouting your names so loudly?”

“Ah? No, no, Guo Shao, please don’t misunderstand. We’re here to make things clear. We’ve already drawn a line between ourselves and the Zhao Family and the Wu Family. Please withdraw the black market bounty on crew.”

Fang Chuyun was drenched in cold sweat.

He was the chairman of the Chuyun Group and the patriarch of the Fang Clan.

He managed a real estate empire worth hundreds of billions!

Hundreds of people in his family were elites in various fields!

He had hundreds of thousands of employees under his command!

However, facing Guo Feng, he had to greet him with a smile.

Because Guo Feng was Sima Hui’s illegitimate son, yet also Sima Hui’s only son.

Moreover, Guo Feng was an absolute genius with boundless prospects in the future.

Most critically, Guo Feng had surprisingly few ties, making it impossible to attack or retaliate against him indirectly.

Therefore, he could only swallow his pride.

“Yes, Guo Shao! We didn’t know the Wu Family and the Zhao Family would offend you before. Now that we’ve drawn a clear line, please be merciful!”

“Now is the peak period of our development. Once we are entangled by those bounty hunters, our family will miss this first opportunity!”

Everyone lowered their stance and pleaded with Guo Feng.

Their words were sincere!

So sincere that even Zhou Yunyang and Xiang Zihan were stunned.

Guo Feng frowned, looking at them: “Do you think there’s a possibility that by bothering me and a beautiful woman for such a trivial matter, and spoiling my mood, I might become very unhappy?”

“Ah?!”

Everyone was stunned.

Is this a trivial matter?

Are you really that lacking in beautiful women?

Moreover, this beautiful woman isn't that exceptionally beautiful, is she?

Fang Chuyun was also a shrewd person. Seeing this, he quickly cupped his hands and smiled at Xiang Zihan: “Miss, I’m sorry to have disturbed your lunch with Guo Shao.”

He then looked at Guo Feng, “Guo Shao, we’ll wait for you outside!”

The others, seeing this, also quickly apologized to Xiang Zihan, then excused themselves to Guo Feng, and retreated to the outer area.

“Ah, this…”

Xiang Zihan was completely bewildered. All these big shots were apologizing to her because they delayed her meal?

What was wrong with this world?

Zhou Yunyang was also shocked. The combined assets managed by these eight people alone were nearly a trillion.

And they were made to wait outside by Guo Feng while he ate?

Was the world updating too fast, or was his knowledge too limited?

Guo Feng, however, smiled faintly: “My apologies, both of you, I was delayed by a small matter.”

He then looked at Zhou Yunyang, “Deputy Section Chief Zhou, regarding what I mentioned earlier, do you see any feasibility?”

“I, I’ll call and apply right away. It… it shouldn’t be a problem.”

Zhou Yunyang stammered a bit as he spoke, then got up and went aside to make a call.

Sure enough, after stating Guo Feng’s request, he was immediately cursed out by his superior.

Only after his superior finished scolding him did he have a chance to recount what he had just seen and heard.

The superior on the other end was instantly silenced.

After a long while, his superior said he would also call and apply.

After several calls back and forth.

Zhou Yunyang received a positive answer, only then did he breathe a sigh of relief, and ran back as if seeking credit, smiling: “Mr. Guo, guess what?”

“As soon as I stated your request, my superior agreed immediately!”

“My superior said that you are a pillar of the country’s future, and as long as you speak, they will immediately give you the green light.”

He paused, then added, “My superior also said that it will still be according to your previous model, without interest. You can take the manor to live in first, and you can deposit money into it anytime, anywhere!”

“Heh heh, good, very good!”

Guo Feng showed a satisfied smile.

This way, the manor was bought, the debt was incurred, and he could upgrade with peace of mind!

Indeed, debt was the king!

He waved his hand, “Alright, let the waiter serve the dishes. Let’s have a good lunch, then go see the house in the afternoon and sign the contract!”

“What about those people outside…”

Xiang Zihan hesitated, pointing to Fang Chuyun and the others outside.

Guo Feng raised an eyebrow: “Little sister Zihan, do you want them to come in and keep us company? It’s fine, I’ll just tell them to come in.”

“Ah??”

Xiang Zihan nearly jumped up, quickly waving her hands, “That’s not what I meant. Just pretend I didn’t say anything.”

She was about to collapse.

Is that what I meant?

You sure know how to interpret what others say!

What kind of thought process is that?!

“Alright, alright, let’s eat. I’ll toast to Mr. Guo!”

Zhou Yunyang quickly said.

Guo Feng couldn’t help but smile. He was, of course, teasing Xiang Zihan just now.

The three of them ate and drank.

About an hour later, they walked out of the private room.

At this moment, Fang Chuyun and the others looked anxious. Upon seeing Guo Feng, they quickly approached him.

Fang Chuyun forced a smile: “Guo Shao, please be merciful. We guarantee that we will never cooperate with the Wu Family or the Zhao Family again. If you don’t believe us, look online; we’ve already issued a joint statement!”

“Hmph! Fair-weather friends!”

Before Guo Feng could speak, a group of people walked in aggressively through the main entrance.

It was none other than Wu Zijiang, Zhao Liang, Zhao Long, and another middle-aged man.

This man was Zhao Liang’s paternal uncle, Zhao Wenyuan’s younger brother, Zhao Zidan!

It was Wu Zijiang who had cursed Fang Chuyun.

Fang Chuyun frowned, looking at Wu Zijiang, and couldn’t help but say: “Brother Jiang, what do you mean by this? Because your Wu and Zhao families have brought huge trouble to our eight major families, isn’t it right for us to make the correct choice?”

“Correct?”

Wu Zijiang sneered, “You’ll find out soon enough!”

As he spoke, he looked at Guo Feng, “Guo Feng, your relentless pursuit of crew this time is truly too much!”

“Now, we have already gone to notify our Wu Family Ancestor and the Zhao Family Ancestor!”

“By then, no matter if your father is Sima Hui or not, he won’t be able to protect you!”

He paused, his eyes narrowing, “Guo Feng! I’ll give you one more chance. Immediately, right now, withdraw the black market bounty, otherwise, I’ll strike you dead right here!”

“The Wu Family Ancestor and the Zhao Family Ancestor are still alive?”

“Weren’t there rumors that they entered the Jinghua Spirit Realm fifty years ago and never returned?”

“If their ancestors are still alive, then the Wu Family and the Zhao Family might not necessarily fear Sima Hui…”

And the others also stirred.

Their eyes also became complicated.

“Ancestors?”

Guo Feng raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised and also a little unexpected.

Entered the Jinghua Spirit Realm fifty years ago?

Didn’t the Spirit Realm only appear this year?

He suddenly realized that there seemed to be some secrets he didn’t know about.

At this moment, Wu Zijiang sneered: “Our ancestors disappeared in the Jinghua Spirit Realm fifty years ago, but recently, news has come, and they have made contact with crew.”

He swept his gaze across everyone’s faces, a triumphant look on his face: “They will be returning soon!”

He then looked at Guo Feng again: “Guo Feng, I’ll say it again. I’m giving you one last chance, and also giving Sima Hui some face. Immediately, right now, withdraw the bounty!”

As he spoke, each word was filled with murderous intent.

His aura also completely rose, and his qi locked onto Guo Feng.

The opponent was over level forty!

It seemed he was about to make a move!
