Tong Le was quick to change her demeanor, catching Zong Caishan completely off guard. He had no idea what he had done wrong; just moments ago, he had been basking in his own self-satisfaction, and now, in the blink of an eye, the beauty had turned her back on him.
Zong Caishan hurriedly stood up, and seeing the situation was turning sour, Kong Feng rushed forward to intervene. Zong Caishan opened his mouth, confused. "What’s the meaning of this? We were just having a good conversation! We were discussing our matters; your friend Jin Zi Meng's situation can be talked about later!"
Tong Le could hardly stand Zong Caishan's face. The saying "the face reflects the heart" rang true; those lustful eyes and the rolls of fat made her feel as if she were conversing with a toad.
She grabbed Jin Zi Meng and headed for the door. Zong Caishan grew anxious. After being tired of the heavily made-up women he usually encountered, he found himself smitten with this one who was both spirited and fresh as a lotus flower. But now, it seemed like she was playing hard to get! He was determined to win her over.
Zong Caishan shot a glance at Kong Feng, who quickly stepped in front of Tong Le, blocking her path. "Hey there, beautiful, let’s talk this out. You can’t just come and go as you please at this gathering! Don’t you think you’re looking down on us? Zong Boss appreciates you and wants to give you a chance to shine. And now you suddenly turn against us? Are you playing with me or deliberately messing with Zong Boss?"
The men and women in the private room paused their conversations, turning their attention to Tong Le and Jin Zi Meng. Jin Zi Meng's fear was evident, but Tong Le remained unfazed.
"Move aside," Tong Le said coolly to Wu Youyou.
Kong Feng sneered and pushed against Tong Le's shoulder. "Not a chance!"
Tong Le took out her phone and called the police.
Kong Feng froze; he had never encountered someone so stubborn before. Not only was her temperament unpredictable, but she was also calling the police! In all his time in this circle, he had never seen anyone so audacious.
Feeling provoked, Kong Feng lost his temper and slapped Tong Le's phone out of her hand. It hit the ground with a loud crash—he didn’t even know if the screen shattered.
Tong Le felt a pang for her phone; it cost thousands! It could have covered the salary for a new employee at Si Li! Anger surged through her as she raised her hand and slapped Kong Feng across the face while shouting, "Pick it up!"
Kong Feng was taken aback. The last time he had been slapped like that was years ago when his wife caught him cheating and slapped him hard enough to ring in his ears. How dare this little girl treat him like that? She must be tired of living!
Furious now, Kong Feng moved to retaliate against Tong Le, but before he could act, the door burst open with force. It was Zong Zeyu who kicked it open and delivered a powerful kick right into Kong Feng's lower back.
Tong Le stepped aside slightly, watching as Kong Feng fell to the ground.
The room fell silent; although no one recognized Tong Le’s face, everyone knew Zong Zeyu’s well—his face had been featured in countless media outlets.
The most surprised was Zong Caishan; he rarely interacted with anyone from the Zong Family, yet here they were meeting head-on.
Zong Zeyu paid no mind to Kong Feng on the floor; seeing his wife’s phone smashed made him furious! He instinctively shielded Tong Le behind him and then locked eyes with the portly Zong Caishan in the crowd.
With a cold expression, Zong Zeyu pointed at Zong Caishan. "You! Pick up my wife’s phone."
He completely disregarded this so-called uncle; after all, Zong Caishan had severed ties with the Zong Family long ago—without those ties, there was no familial bond left.
Moreover, this second uncle had done quite a bit of harm to the Zong Family. Recently, he had been flaunting the Zong name outside, engaging in deceitful schemes. Zong Caishan felt humiliated; not only had he suffered a setback at the hands of Kong Feng, but now he was being ordered around by Zong Zeyu, who was pointing a finger at him. Naturally, anxiety surged within him. Although he was nominally Zong Zeyu's second uncle, he knew very well what his actual standing was. In his business dealings, he had tried his best to avoid Zong Zeyu and Zong Jin, especially this second one, Zong Zeyu. While the eldest, Zong Jin, could still be reasoned with to some extent, the second one completely disregarded the rules. He appeared to be a gentleman on the surface, but when it came to commercial warfare, he was the most ruthless of them all!
However, this was Zong Caishan's territory. No matter how uneasy he felt inside, he couldn't afford to lose face! He deliberately raised his voice, "Zong Zeyu, what are you trying to do? You come here and wreck my place and even assault my people? I am your second uncle! Even if you want to act unreasonable, there’s no need to throw a tantrum here!"
His friends behind him echoed in agreement.
"Exactly! You come in and start hitting people—what's that all about?"
"Just because you're from the Zong Family, you think you're invincible? Our Zong Boss also bears the surname Zong; he's a senior member of the family too! Yet you show no respect whatsoever. Is this how the Zong Family raises its children? What's the difference between you and a thug?"
"Honestly, we should call the police! Look at what you've done to our producer! It seems like he's got some serious back issues now; he's lying on the ground and can't even move!"
"Why not just call the police? This is assault! He deserves to be detained!"
Amidst the chaos of voices flying around, Tong Le felt his temper rising and wanted to step forward to reason with them but was stopped by Zong Zeyu behind him.
Zong Zeyu remained calm as he took two steps toward Zong Caishan with a cold smile on his face. "I think we should definitely call the police. Let me tell them that you owe the Zong Family two hundred million in cash. When are you planning to pay it back? Out of consideration for your past relationship with my mother and father, she didn’t take you to court. But I have no such sentiments for you. How about I charge you with economic fraud? Two hundred million—enough for you to spend a lifetime in prison!"
