Chapter 1709

"Affirmative." Chong Lou gave a definite answer, then looked at Xiao Zhou. "What? Is this person very powerful?"

Xiao Zhou gave a bitter smile. "Boss, it’s not just about being powerful. It’s that I don’t even know how to describe him." He paused, steadied his nerves, and continued.

"Ta Shu Yuanxiang. In the underworld, he is known as Seventh Master. I heard he was an insignificant member of the Ta Shu family in his youth. But he relied on his own ability to create Ta Shu Industries and seized the leadership of the Ta Shu family. Now, he has the final say in the family. Later, for some unknown reason, he went legitimate. However, there are still many legends about him in the underworld."

As Xiao Zhou spoke, he hadn’t expected Zhu Shun Yao’s son-in-law to be such a figure.

"It sounds like this Ta Shu Yuanxiang is indeed formidable." Chong Lou frowned slightly. He thought, No wonder Zhu Shun Yao has such capability.

"Ta Shu Yuanxiang is not only powerful. Most importantly, if he doesn’t act, he stays hidden. But if he steps out, one stomp of his foot can make the entire Northeast tremble. So, no one dares to provoke Seventh Master Ta Shu, unless they are full and want to die." Xiao Zhou sounded exhausted. He wondered if choosing Chong Lou as his boss was right or wrong. If they continued like this, Chong Lou would surely face a bad end.

"There is another one: Yan Aohan." Xiao Zhou looked at Chong Lou. "Boss, do you know how people in the Capital refer to Yan Aohan?"

"Is Yan Aohan also very powerful?" Chong Lou was stunned again. If both sons-in-law were powerful, who would dare to oppose Zhu Shun Yao in the Capital?

"How could Yan Aohan not be powerful? Yan Aohan is known as the Venerable Yanluo of the Capital. This title doesn’t just mean he is fair in his dealings; it also highlights his cold ruthlessness.

In his eyes, there are almost only two types of people: the living and the dead. Therefore, no one in the Capital, all of China, or even the world dares to offend the Venerable Yanluo of the Capital. Furthermore, Yan Aohan is the current head of the Yan family. The Yan family ranks first among the top-tier noble families in the Capital. Yan Aohan’s father is Yan Xicheng, and his mother is A Luo Gesang. Both were highly valued by the founding leaders and are still alive."

Xiao Zhou knew everything about the Capital quite thoroughly, so he explained the situation to Chong Lou. "If you are sure that Zhu Shun Yao’s two sons-in-law are Seventh Master Ta Shu and the Venerable Yanluo of the Capital, then no one in the Capital, or even all of China, dares to attack Zhu Shun Yao. Because opposing Zhu Shun Yao is not like fighting a peasant. It is like opposing Seventh Master Ta Shu and the Venerable Yanluo of the Capital. Think about that situation. It is terrifying."

Xiao Zhou looked at Chong Lou. "Boss, could you be mistaken? If Zhu Shun Yao is really the father-in-law of those two, I advise you not to act."

"Are you sure his two sons-in-law have such great power?" Chong Lou was shocked. He never expected Zhu Shun Yao’s sons-in-law to have such background. But if he had to give up revenge, he couldn’t do it. However, if he wanted to take revenge, he wouldn’t act without a hundred percent guarantee.

"Is there no other way?" Chong Lou frowned slightly.

Xiao Zhou shrugged. He really didn’t want to face Seventh Master Ta Shu and the Venerable Yanluo of the Capital. He secretly glanced at Chong Lou, feeling that this man had problems with his brain. How could he want to oppose Seventh Master Ta Shu and the Venerable Yanluo of the Capital? Wasn’t he looking for death? It seemed Xiao Zhou needed to find a new boss.

Xiao Zhou was smart. Originally, he wanted to follow Chong Lou for better development. But now, Chong Lou’s actions and lack of insight made Xiao Zhou feel that this person was not worth investing in.

A person who didn’t even know Seventh Master Ta Shu and the Venerable Yanluo of the Capital would only bring huge crisis to those who followed him.

Everyone wants to live, and Xiao Zhou did too. He wanted to live well and gloriously. If Chong Lou remained, Xiao Zhou might become cannon fodder. Xiao Zhou was very clear about this.

Xiao Zhou thought for a moment and decided. It seemed he really needed to find someone else to join.

Chong Lou didn’t know Xiao Zhou’s thoughts. At this moment, Chong Lou was still in shock. He never expected Zhu Shun Yao’s two sons-in-law to have such a big background.

Seventh Master Ta Shu and the Venerable Yanluo of the Capital. He had heard these names, but he had never associated them with Zhu Shun Yao’s sons-in-law. But now he knew, whether he liked it or not, it didn’t matter. The important thing was that Zhu Shun Yao’s sons-in-law were indeed Seventh Master Ta Shu and the Venerable Yanluo of the Capital.

In this case, he understood why Zhu Shun Yao knew everything about him. How could anything in the Capital escape the hands of Seventh Master Ta Shu and the Venerable Yanluo of the Capital, who were native to the Capital?

But if he had to give up opposing Zhu Shun Yao, he couldn’t do it. If it weren’t for the Zhu Shun Yao family, Zhu Guifu and Gan Juhua wouldn’t have come to the Capital.

That’s right. Chong Lou had never wanted Zhu Guifu and Gan Juhua to come to the Capital. To him, Zhu Guifu and Gan Juhua were like a stain in his life. If this stain existed, he would absolutely not allow it.

To ensure he had no stain, he had to make sure this stain never existed. So, protecting them from appearing was the best option.

This was why Chong Lou hadn’t told Zhu Guifu and Gan Juhua about his presence in the Capital initially. But who could have predicted that they would still find out about him in the Capital? And they actually came to the Capital. He placed them in the apartment suite not because he cared about them, but because he didn’t want them to appear. Of course, it would be best if his enemies killed them, giving him a reason to act.

In Chong Lou’s heart, only people or things useful to him were good. If they were useless, they didn’t need to exist.

"Xiao Zhou, find a way to let some of my enemies know that Zhu Guifu and Gan Juhua are my parents, and their correct address in the current residential community." Chong Lou seemed to have made up his mind.

Xiao Zhou’s heart jumped, but his face showed no fluctuation. They say a tiger does not eat its cubs. But unexpectedly, the cub wanted to kill its parents. At this moment, Xiao Zhou’s determination to leave Chong Lou became even stronger. This kind of person would abandon his parents. Abandoning others would just be a thought. No matter what, Xiao Zhou didn’t want to risk his life for such a person.

Chong Lou didn’t know that this casual action had already sold the hearts of Xiao Zhou and some people he had barely gathered. They all unconsciously wanted to leave Chong Lou.

Silver Fox learned about the situation on Chong Lou’s side and laughed. Looking at Old Ma, he said, "So, it’s that Xiao Zhou who wants to join me."
