Oh no! The Dragon King's envoy has been arrested by the police!
Zhou Cheng's charm among the wealthy families is undoubtedly top-tier!
Whether it's his looks, his physique, or his domineering words and actions, everything about him attracts the favor of many young ladies.
After all, this is a short drama world, and the aura of a domineering president can be said to be absolutely terrifying.
Therefore, after Zhou Cheng domineeringly tore up the so-called Marriage Proposal Letters from the Dragon King Emissary, the eyes of the young misses from those Seven Great Families were practically glued to him!
This made Zhou Cheng feel a bit vigilant in his heart, muttering to himself whether he was being too flashy. If he were to be targeted by this world and have a Female Protagonist arranged to entangle with him again, his life would surely face many more troublesome matters!
"Captain Jiang, the Liu Family butler said there is no surveillance at the party, this…"
The Police Officer who received Jiang Ci's order to go and ask the Liu Family butler for the surveillance footage returned to Jiang Ci's side and said with a frown.
Hearing this, Jiang Ci also frowned. If there was no surveillance, there would undoubtedly be less physical evidence, but that didn't matter; there were so many witnesses on the scene, enough to prove that this Group of strangely dressed men had assaulted and insulted the police.
Zhou Cheng was standing beside Jiang Ci, and he also heard the Police Officer's words.
He immediately looked toward the Old Patriarch of the Liu Family, and when Zhou Cheng's gaze cast over, the Old Patriarch slightly turned his head, choosing to avoid Zhou Cheng's gaze.
At this moment, Zhou Cheng understood—it wasn't that there was no surveillance at this party.
It was that the Liu Family dared not bring it out!
This Liu Family was still the same Liu Family that had been scared out of their wits by the Dragon King; they dared not stand on the side of the Zhou Family! Even though Zhou Cheng's leading the resistance would benefit their Liu Family as well, they still dared not!
Even when Zhou Cheng had already led the Zhou Family to openly raise the banner of resisting the Dragon King, the Liu Family still dared not!
"To think the Liu Family is the number one wealthy Family in Shanghai, they turn out to be such cowards! Not a shred of backbone! They are actually scared like this by a so-called Dragon King who hasn't even arrived in Shanghai yet!" Zhou Cheng said with a slight curl of his lips, mocking them gently!
The Old Patriarch of the Liu Family was already over seventy years old. Facing the verbal mockery of such a young junior like Zhou Cheng, he couldn't help but feel a bit angry.
But with everyone present, he couldn't easily lash out, especially since the Zhou Family was also a massive entity; he had no way to sanction or target the Zhou Family in the short term!
So he could only shrink his head and say leisurely: "There was originally no surveillance in my manor; this has nothing to do with whether my Liu Family has backbone or not!"
At this time, the Dragon King Emissary heard these words and felt slightly happy in his heart. Among these Eight Great Families, there were still those who feared the Dragon King!
However, he hadn't been happy for long before Zhou Cheng spoke up again.
"No worries, the Liu Family doesn't have it, but I do."
As Zhou Cheng said this, he simultaneously took out a fountain pen from the pocket above his suit, and inside that pen was a pinhole camera.
"As a Police Officer, it's quite reasonable for me to carry a pinhole camera to record the case-handling process at any time, right?" Zhou Cheng said slightly.
This was indeed very reasonable. Zhou Cheng had long prepared this pinhole camera and had been carrying it on his person.
When he saw from the letter in the morning that a Dragon King Emissary would appear at this banquet, he already knew that something would definitely happen tonight.
So he directly carried this pen equipped with a pinhole camera on him. This way, he could freely record the criminal evidence of these so-called Dragon King Emissaries.
Even if it couldn't be used now, it could be used to reduce the police force value required to redeem evidence of their illegal activities.
The Liu Family and the Dragon King Emissary twitched their mouths upon hearing Zhou Cheng's words.
They didn't expect this kid, Zhou Cheng of the Zhou Family, to be so well-prepared!
Clearly, this Zhou Cheng had come prepared!
Indeed, his mind was meticulous, calculating everything.
Previously, he had been quiet and unassuming, making people think he was just a playboy who never went to the Group!
In reality, he wouldn't make a move until he was ready, but once he did, he would shock everyone!
Jiang Ci didn't say anything more, waved her hand, and had people take everyone back to the police station!
Afterward, she left directly.
Zhou Cheng also followed.
At the same time, Zhou Feiyu and his companion saw Zhou Cheng leave and didn't intend to stay at the Liu Family any longer, so they followed Zhou Cheng directly to go home and wait for his return!
Everyone watched as the entire Zhou Family left, some silent, some whispering!
"Everyone, tonight's banquet ends here. After you go back, you must keep this a secret. If it leaks out and angers the Dragon King Emissary, or even Lord Dragon King, then bear the consequences yourselves!"
Old Master Liu stood in the middle and shouted, initiating the guest-departure mode.
And after saying this, he immediately invited the heads of the other families present, excluding the Zhou Family, to the tea room to discuss matters.
"Chairman Wang, let's go together. I'll be the host tonight; let's change places and continue discussing our cooperation."
"Okay, let's go, let's go."
"I didn't expect tonight to be so lively. It was fun to watch, but I don't know how the Zhou Family will face the Dragon King. If this Dragon King is as powerful as the one from decades ago, I'm afraid the Zhou Family won't be able to escape destruction!"
"Dad, if you ask me, you are still mythologizing that Dragon King too much. This is a society ruled by law, understand..."
"Actually, what surprised me most was the Second Young Master of the Zhou Family. How is his martial arts so strong? I'm afraid that even if our Family's Bodyguards all went up together, they wouldn't be his match!"
The person who said this was a wealthy Family head with a net worth of ten billion. As he spoke, he didn't forget to look at the son he had specifically brought with him.
His eyes gradually became sharp: "Look at Second Young Master Zhou, then look at your body, which has been hollowed out by wine and women! Give up drinking and womanizing tomorrow, and start exercising properly for me, otherwise, don't even think about inheriting the Family business. I don't want to hand over my life's hard work to a short-lived ghost in the end!"
His son heard his father's words and agreed repeatedly.
But in his heart, he was incomparably resentful. Clearly, before this, you told me not to learn from Zhou Cheng.
Clearly, before this, you said it was fine as long as I just ate, drank, and played.
"..."
The wealthy men chatted in low voices as they left.
Regarding what happened tonight, besides being surprised and shocked, they were still surprised and shocked!
However, thinking about it, it was also a bit funny. The Dragon King Emissary and his Group appeared with such high airs, but ended up being dealt with by Zhou Cheng alone, and even reported to the police and arrested.
What a farce!
...
In the temple, the Dragon King, who had just handed the dragon king token and the Marriage Contract to his Disciple, had his phone ring.
He thought about it casually, and then his brows slightly furrowed.
He felt that the Dragon King Emissary's trip this time was not going smoothly!
He took out his phone, opened it, and sure enough, it was a call from a Black Robed Envoy.
He chose to answer!
"Lord Dragon King! Oh no! The Dragon King Emissary has been taken away by the police."
Ye Lan's heart sank upon hearing this. Hearing these words, he felt like he was in Journey to the West, with Sha Seng telling the Monkey King that the Master had been captured by a demon!
"What happened?!" Ye Lan asked in a deep voice.
"It's like this, my subordinate followed the Dragon King Emissary to Shanghai to deliver the Marriage Proposal Letters to the Eight Great Families for the Young Lord, and the result was!"
"The result was the Eight Great Families were unwilling?" A hint of anger rose in Ye Lan's heart, thinking to himself that those people in Shanghai seemed to have forgotten his existence!
"That's not it. Although the other families were somewhat unwilling, they still accepted the Marriage Proposal Letters, except for the Zhou Family!"
"The Zhou Family? What happened to them?" Ye Lan didn't know much about this Zhou Family; after all, this was a new Family that had risen after he left Shanghai!
Sure enough, people who hadn't seen his past deeds would not be obedient!
"Their Second Young Master gave the Dragon King Emissary a lesson on the law, saying that the Xia Kingdom has a monogamy system! That us delivering so many Marriage Proposal Letters is illegal."
"Uh..." Ye Lan was stunned upon hearing this!
