It turned out that Zhan Beijue had been calling him frantically all along just for this?
He knew about his scandal with Fang Yuan?
Uncle Zhou's heart grew even more indignant.
Fang Yuan, that damned woman, how many men had she hooked up with?
Even Zhan Beijue came forward to save her, how impressive!
A Cheng led the security team and their brothers in over a dozen cars, blocking the road tightly.
At this moment, Uncle Zhou couldn't move forward. Hearing this, his face fell. He shifted into reverse, intending to back away.
Seeing that it had come to this, and his uncle still wanted to struggle, refusing to shed tears until he saw the coffin.
Zhan Beijue had no choice but to step forward and speak to him more seriously.
"Stop the car, don't make a fuss anymore. It's not worth ruining your future for such a woman."
"Get out now, before things escalate further."
"I guarantee that your aunt won't find out about today's events, and it won't spread. Let her go."
This was the first time he had seen Zhan Beijue make such a big fuss over a woman.
He had personally brought people to plead with him.
Did Fang Yuan, that dead woman, really have such great charm?
Uncle Zhou couldn't help but stop the car and roll down the window to ask him.
"What's your relationship with her? Why you specifically? When did you meet? Have you been together for a long time?"
"This damned woman, how dare she seduce you behind my back? Was the child she was carrying yours?!"
"Zhan Beijue, there are so many women in Nancheng, why pick me?"
Zhan Beijue's expression was blank as he told him the truth.
"You're mistaken. I'm not here for her. I, Zhan Beijue, am not so desperate for women that I need to share them with you."
"Whatever is going on between you and her has nothing to do with me. I don't know, and I don't want to know. I'm looking for someone else."
"As long as you stop the car now and let her out, I promise not to fight you and will minimize the negative impact."
For another woman?
Could it be that this woman who appeared out of nowhere and was meddling was Zhan Beijue's woman?
He had wasted over a year of feelings on Fang Yuan, only to gain nothing in the end, and instead became a laughingstock for a junior.
Uncle Zhou felt like a complete failure.
Unexpectedly, fate hadn't completely abandoned him. At this moment, a trump card had been delivered into his hands.
Taking advantage of the special circumstances and Zhan Beijue's concern for women, he might be able to get what he wanted.
After Zhan Beijue finished speaking, he pounded the steering wheel with a look of sorrow.
"I'm old, my company is a mess, I'm heavily in debt, my career is getting worse, and my son is useless."
"Now I'm being played by a woman, I really don't want to live on."
"Ah Jue, don't worry about me, just let me go."
"With two women accompanying me, I won't be lonely on the road to the underworld. My life will have been worth it."
"We are uncle and nephew. It's a blessing to see each other one last time today. It shows your filial piety."
"In the next life, we'll still be uncle and nephew. That's all. Move aside, let me go!"
Saying this, he grabbed the gear lever, preparing to reverse again. Zhan Beijue stared at him with a cold expression.
"If you need my help with anything, just say it. There's no need to court death."
"The company is only facing some temporary difficulties. You've lived for decades, what big storms haven't you seen? You can't overcome this?"
"Stop the car and let her out. I'll invest fifty million in cash into your company for working capital."
"..."
After causing such a huge scene, he was only asking for fifty million in cash?
Uncle Zhou put on a helpless and pitiful expression.
"I know you mean well, but there's no need to persuade me further. Fifty million is just a drop in the bucket for my current company."
"Ah Jue, just let me go. Uncle is leaving. In the future, if Jin Xiu and Jin Bei encounter trouble, I hope you'll lend them a hand for my sake."
"And your aunt, her health is not good..."
Such a grown man, putting on such a never-ending act.
Afraid of losing face?
With so many subordinates watching, if he were truly afraid of losing face, he would have already driven off the cliff.
Zhan Beijue saw through his thoughts and was already very impatient.
However, out of respect for Jiang Nan Fang and his mother, he had to endure it.
"If you dare to do anything foolish with my people, I promise I'll fall out with Zhou Jin Xiu as soon as we get back."
"??"
"If fifty million isn't enough, I'll give you a hundred million. And your long-held dream of listing overseas, I'll fulfill it too. Uncle, know when to stop."
"..."
He was going to invest a hundred million into the company for working capital and help it go public?
Uncle Zhou looked incredulous.
"Listing a company takes time and effort. You're so busy, how can you possibly help me?"
Zhan Beijue: "I, Zhan Beijue, keep my word. I've always been true to my word, you know that."
"If you don't trust me, I can give you a written guarantee now, or record a video."
"Hurry up and stop the car. My patience is running out. Don't force me to call people to take action."
A few minutes later, Jiang Nan Fang finally saw the light of day again.
It turned out she and Fang Yuan had been thrown into the car's trunk. Zhan Beijue's uncle was truly ruthless!
Her limbs were curled up and bound, causing her pain. Her forehead throbbed, and her eyes were glued shut by some unknown liquid.
After getting out of the trunk, Jiang Nan Fang was dizzy and couldn't stand steadily. Fortunately, Zhan Beijue caught her in time.
Seeing that her forehead had been split open by something and was still bleeding.
The left side of her face and half of her shoulder were covered in semi-dried bloodstains.
Her state, as if she had narrowly escaped death, made Zhan Beijue's heart ache.
Although he had never yielded to Jiang Nan Fang in arguments, he would never bear to hurt her physically.
She was so thin, so petite, like a willow branch in the wind, as if a stronger breeze would break her...
Uncle was old, absurd, and ignorant. As an elder, tolerating him once was enough.
With such a major incident, how dare A Zhong and Zhou Jin Bei hide it from him.
Fortunately, there was no real danger today. Otherwise, he would have skinned both of them upon his return.
Fang Yuan was terrified. A Cheng took her, who had lost consciousness, to the hospital.
Jiang Nan Fang was covering her forehead with one hand and leaning against the car's tailgate, unsure where she was going.
After saving her life, with such a great favor owed, this dead woman didn't even look at him, nor did she intend to thank him?
Looking at her trembling form, Zhan Beijue felt both pain and anger. He stepped forward and grabbed her wrist.
"Jiang Nan Fang."
Jiang Nan Fang didn't want to acknowledge him.
As expected, she was Zhan Beijue's relative, his maternal uncle, inheriting the same traits as his mother.
He was despicable and cruel, almost causing her death.
After helping him prevent a catastrophe, would this Zhan still expect her to thank him in return?
Thank his head.
If she had known he was so ruthless, regardless of whether he was Zhou Jin Xiu's father or grandfather, Jiang Nan Fang would never have gotten involved in this mess.
Pretending not to hear, she continued to move forward tremblingly.
The next second, she was lifted into the air.
Zhan Beijue wrapped his strong arms around her, pulling her into his warm embrace, forcing her to meet his gaze.
