At this moment, Chu Zhaoxi, who had just finished ordering dishes, seemed to have noticed them. He closed his menu and walked over with his female companion.

"What a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet Miss Shishi and Young Master Zheng here." Chu Zhaoxi's smile was very friendly as he extended his hand towards Wang Zheng in a cordial manner.

Shishi OuYang, who always had a clear distinction between right and wrong and could not tolerate any dirt in her eyes, did not give Wang Zheng the chance to shake hands. She grabbed Wang Zheng's right hand, making Chu Zhaoxi's hand hover awkwardly in mid-air.

Of course, Wang Zheng never intended to raise his hand in the first place. He saw no reason and had no interest in befriending such a venomous snake.

"I wonder if Young Master Chu is speaking to us today as an individual or representing your entire family" Shishi OuYang suddenly threw out a puzzling statement.

"I'm not quite sure what Miss OuYang means, but I naturally speak in my personal capacity today. There's no need to elevate this matter to the level of our family." Chu Zhaoxi maintained his polite smile but ended with an implied displeasure. As the eldest son of the Chu Family, Shishi OuYang’s actions無疑顯得太過無禮了些。

"If it were in a familial capacity, all my business dealings with the Chu Family would be through Young Master Chu Zhaonan. If it's on a personal level, then I'm sorry, we have no interest in knowing you." Shishi OuYang smiled while delivering her final blow, her words being utterly無情。

"No problem, we'll certainly meet again sometime in the future." Forced to show an unnatural smile, Chu Zhaoxi withdrew his hand and prepared to leave. A barely perceptible resentment flashed across his eyes; he hadn't expected Shishi OuYang to be so unaccommodating, leaving him completely embarrassed.

"Young Master Chu, please wait a moment." Wang Zheng stood up suddenly and said.

"Oh What else does Young Master Wang have in mind" Chu Zhaoxi still felt apprehensive about this man who could single-handedly cause a stir in the capital. He knew that if this man were to act fully, the resources he could mobilize would far exceed his own.

"Actually, it's not really anything major; I just haven't seen Chu Zhaonan for a long time and can't get through to him on the phone. Do you know how he's been recently" Wang Zheng's words were clearly laced with sharp needles. His eyes stared directly at Chu Zhaoxi as if trying to discern something unusual.

"I haven't heard from him in a while either." Clearly, Chu Zhaoxi knew that continuing this conversation would only put him at a disadvantage, and he had no interest in such an unfriendly exchange.

"That's too bad. I still miss the days when we used to drink tea together, but things have changed so quickly in the capital lately that it catches everyone off guard." Wang Zheng's words seemed to carry great significance; his eyes even conveyed a hint of warning at this point.

Yes, it was indeed a warning!

Gazing into those eyes, Chu Zhaoxi inexplicably felt a wave of fear! He had never met Wang Zheng before and although he knew about the man's arrogant behavior, he hadn't anticipated that he would possess such an imposing presence. Just one glance made him feel afraid!

Chu Zhaoxi deeply regretted approaching to greet this person; it was a classic case of looking for trouble. He composed himself and put on a serious face as he said to Wang Zheng, "I hope we have the chance to meet again next time."

Saying that, Chu Zhaoxi turned around and left without any interest in lingering.

Seeing Chu Zhaoxi leave, Shishi smiled and asked, "Hey, do you think if Chu Zhaonan knew we were sticking up for him, he would thank us"

"Whether or not he thanks us is unknown, but certain people definitely hate us," Wang Zheng gazed at Chu Zhaoxi's back figure with deep thought.

"Are we still afraid of him" Shishi上官 seemed somewhat disdainful. She always preferred straightforward people; even when she used tactics, they were overt ones. Naturally, she couldn't stand someone like Chu Zhaoxi who operated in the shadows.

"Isn’t there a saying that goes ‘It’s better to fear an enemy's hatred than his theft’ This is a venomous snake that has been hiding for years before biting. Now that he’s shown his fangs, can we still expect him to be submissive as before" Wang Zheng had a serious expression on his face. Regardless of time and place, having too many enemies was never good, but reality left him no choice.

Unexpectedly, when she heard what Wang Zheng said, Shishi上官 didn’t show any trace of fear; instead, her smile bloomed like flowers: "So does this mean you have to protect me"

Wang Zheng was taken aback. He truly couldn’t fathom the logic behind Shishi上官’s thinking. Sighing inwardly, he thought, ‘Women's minds can't be measured by ordinary standards.'

Chu Zhaoxi returned to his seat with a grim expression, his fists clenched tightly, revealing his inner turmoil.

Since he had made a grand comeback and taken over the Chu family, no one had dared to speak to him in such a mocking tone! And Wang Zheng’s words, laced with warning, were a direct slap in the face, making his cheeks burn red!

Chu Zhaoxi thought he had long come to terms with everything and could remain indifferent to these setbacks. But now, he realized that he had never been calm at all!

Why was it that even after taking over from Chu Zhagnan, he still couldn’t shake off the shadow cast by his predecessor

"Young Master, those two are truly disrespectful and ungrateful. They should have died in a car accident long ago. Such a day will surely come for them," said one of the women brought along by Chu Zhaoxi, her face twisted with venom.

"Such a day will surely come Then I hope it happens sooner rather than later." Chu Zhaoxi made no effort to hide his murderous intent. His pride had been gravely injured just now.

"Wait a moment, Young Master. I'll make a phone call."

Chu Zhaoxi did not stop her from doing so.

Half an hour later, upon being satisfied with the meal, Shishi Upshang put down her knife and fork and then said to Wang Zheng, "You wanted to take me somewhere. Let's go."

Wang Zheng laughed heartily, "Are you really that eager to go"

Shishi Upshang naturally couldn't be happier with the opportunity of being alone with Wang Zheng, "Of course I am. Anyway, you won’t sell me out.

"That's not certain," Wang Zheng grinned mischievously, "You might get scared and run away when you see where we're going."

"Unless it’s a men’s bathhouse or toilets, there is no way I would run away."

Wang Zheng drove Shishi Upshang far. When she got out of the car and saw the sign in front of her, she looked at it disdainfully.

"Humph, I thought you were taking me somewhere special. It's just a hot spring club."
