Chapter 5400: Strange Notice
"I see."
Zhang Yifeng chuckled and understood the key between the Ji family and the Lu family.
It was obvious that Ji Huanying had taught Lu Shang a lesson when he was young. As a result, over time, Lu Shang had developed a fear of Ji Huanying.
And Chang Xue guessed that it was for this reason that she felt there was an opportunity to take advantage of Lu Shang and took the chance to win him over to her side.
However, Chang Xue probably would not have thought that the son of the Qingbei Marquis of the Tianyu Empire would be so timid when facing Ji Huanying.
At this time, just outside Zui Xiang Lou, Chang Xue and the girls who had left with her before were looking at Lu Shang lying on the ground in shock.
Just now, Chang Xue was bragging to a few sisters that as long as Lu Shang went up, Ji Huanying would pay the price.
As a result, in less than half an hour, Lu Shang was knocked out.
Chang Xue's expression changed several times, and she wanted to leave Lu Shang here alone.
But after thinking it over carefully, she still did not give up her last hope and hurried to Lu Shang.
"Brother Shang, what's wrong with you?"
"Who hurt you? Was it the guards around Ji Huanying?"
"This Ji Huanying actually allowed his guards to hurt people. I will take you back to the Marquis' Mansion and ask Qingbei Marquis to avenge you!"
As Chang Xue said this, she was about to help Lu Shang stand up from the ground.
However, when he heard that Chang Xue was going to take him back to the Marquis' Mansion, Lu Shang ignored the pain in his body and stood up hurriedly.
"No, no need Xue'er, I'm fine."
"Let's let Ji Huanying go for now today. I will definitely help you deal with her next time!"
As Lu Shang spoke, he looked at Chang Xue nervously, fearing that she would really take him back to the Marquis' Mansion.
"Lu Shang, you disappoint me so much!"
Chang Xue looked at Lu Shang's appearance, and a surge of anger suddenly rose in her heart.
If she hadn't wanted to use Lu Shang's background as the son of Marquis Qingbei to deal with Ji Huanying, she would never have fallen for such a piece of trash.
Now seeing that Lu Shang didn't even dare to look for his father, Qingbei Hou, Chang Xue was extremely disappointed.
"That's it. You don't have to come to me again."
Chang Xue turned her head and spoke coldly to Lu Shang, then left with the sisters around her.
Lu Shang stared blankly at her departing back. After a long while, he lowered his head in despair and walked towards the direction of Qingbei Marquis Mansion.
Upstairs in Zui Xiang Lou, Zhang Yifeng and Ji Huanying were standing at the window, taking in everything that was happening below.
"This Lu Shang doesn't look like an arrogant person. It seems that he just acted like that just to scare you."
Zhang Yifeng looked at Lu Shang who was walking away in a daze and said in a calm voice.
"Of course, although this kid was a little tough when he was young, at least he is still quite honest."
"I don't want to see Chang Xue using this stupid boy to do whatever he wants. After this incident, Chang Xue probably won't look for him again."
Ji Huanying also nodded slightly and the cold look on her face disappeared.
Just as the two were talking, a crisp ring suddenly rang behind them.
Zhang Yifeng looked back inadvertently and saw a group of people wearing black robes walking up from the first floor of Zui Xiang Lou.
The person in the lead seemed to be a woman, with a hood on her head so her face couldn't be seen clearly.
The bell sound Zhang Yifeng heard came from the bell hanging around his waist.
Just after these people walked up to the second floor of Zui Xiang Lou, Zhang Yifeng suddenly felt the temperature around him drop sharply.
I think this kind of change was caused by this group of people in black robes.
At the same time, behind this group of men in black robes, Zhang Yifeng noticed that the shopkeeper Liu who had left earlier also followed them up.
Shopkeeper Liu followed them carefully, and when he saw Zhang Yifeng and Ji Huanying still staying in Zui Xiang Lou, there was a flash of surprise in his eyes.
But soon he lowered his head and quickly followed the group of men in black robes into a private room.
Ji Huanying also turned around and saw Manager Liu following the group of men in black robes into the private room.
"What's wrong, Brother Zhang?"
Seeing Zhang Yifeng staring at that place, she couldn't help but ask in a low voice.
"Nothing, I just feel a little weird."
Zhang Yifeng touched his chin. He vaguely felt that the black-robed woman in the lead seemed to look back at them.
Or rather, he was not looking at him, but at Ji Huanying who was standing next to him.
When he saw Manager Liu and the faint fear on his face when he saw them, Zhang Yifeng couldn't help but feel an inexplicable worry in his heart.
"Let's not talk about these things for now. We have been out for long enough. Let's go back to Ji Mansion first."
Zhang Yifeng shook his head. No matter what, this was not a place to stay for long.
Besides, they had been out for a long time, and Ji Shan’s banquet should have been prepared.
By dealing with Ji Shan as soon as possible, Zhang Yifeng can concentrate on waiting for the information from Manager Liu to be passed back.
After thinking about it, Zhang Yifeng and Ji Huanying walked out of Zuixianglou and headed towards Ji Mansion.
On the other side, Chang Xue, who left Zui Xiang Lou angrily, returned home immediately.
At this time, Chang Sheng had already presented the treasures that Ji Shan brought back to the palace and had returned home.
But as soon as he came back, he saw his daughter sitting in the reception room with a righteous look on her face.
"What's wrong, Xue'er? Did someone provoke you outside?"
Chang Sheng frowned, stood in front of his daughter with his tall and mighty body, and asked in a solemn voice.
Chang Sheng has always treated his only daughter as a treasure.
Seeing Chang Xue's angry expression at this moment, Chang Sheng couldn't help but feel angry.
"Dad, didn't you say that the Ji family father and daughter would never come back?"
"Today, I excitedly took a group of sisters to Zui Xiang Lou for tea, but Ji Huanying suddenly broke into the room and threatened me."
"You also know that I am no match for her. I can only leave with my sisters in silence."
Chang Xue covered her face with one hand and sobbed.
These words were naturally exaggerated by her, but Chang Sheng didn't care.
When Chang Sheng heard that his daughter was bullied by Ji Huanying again, his eyes almost spewed flames.
"Damn Ji's father and daughter, they really bullied me too much!"
"Don't worry, daughter. Although this time, the father and daughter did not die outside the empire."
"But they must not think that they are safer inside the empire than outside!"
Chang Sheng shouted angrily and smashed the table beside him with a punch.
"Father, what do you mean?"
Seeing this, Chang Xue was not at all panicked. Instead, she raised her head excitedly to confirm.
"Hehe, the demise of the Ji family is not my decision alone."
"Even if they can return to the empire, they will only be heading towards another abyss. Soon there will be actions against them again."
"Tonight, no one in the Ji family can escape!"
Chang Sheng clenched his fists with a grim smile and said in a cold voice.
