Chapter 567 — How to Deal with Him
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
"Yes! Gu Pengzhan hired him, specifically to guard Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu in secret." Zhong Fabai nodded. "Though every wrong has its source and every debt its debtor, this time we can only level our spear at Gu Pengzhan and Wei Zhao. Gu Pengzhan is beyond our reach for the moment, but Wei Zhao... Wei Zhao we can make an example of—kill the chicken to frighten the monkey!"
"Son of a bitch!" Zhong Yongliang was suddenly enlightened, nearly leaping off his sickbed. "No wonder there were photos of Wei Zhao on Shen Yushu's phone—so he's Gu Mengyao's personal guard! Damn it, and I never noticed. At school, that brat was forever seeming to accidentally wreck my chances with Gu Mengyao—so he was her personal guard all along! That kid hid himself deep!"
"Son, Gu Mengyao is not for you. Stop chasing her from now on." Zhong Fabai sighed. "An Jianwen is not someone we can shake at present. We aim our spear at Wei Zhao first; when we are stronger, we can think about the rest."
"Dad, I understand!" By now Zhong Yongliang understood as well—there was no hope left of winning Gu Mengyao, not at least before Zhang Naipao burst onto the scene. Though it stung, he ground his teeth. "A true man need never fear he will find no wife. Don't worry, Dad. I will endure—endure until the day the Zhong family rises!"
"Mm, that's the way." Zhong Fabai nodded, gratified. "This grudge—we will surely have our revenge. But for now, we can only survive under Young Master Bing's protection."
"By the way, Dad, that Wei Zhao is no weakling. If we are to take him on..." Zhong Yongliang still had misgivings about Wei Zhao's skill. After all, Wei Zhao had crippled even Brother Black Panther.
"Set your mind at ease about that. To deal with him, we borrow Young Master Bing's hand. We will not be the ones to stick our necks out," Zhong Fabai said. "There is no hurry. Right now we must win Young Master Bing's trust—I have to handle the shantytown demolition well. Let Young Master Bing take me for his right-hand man. Only then can we borrow his power."
"The shantytown demolition?" Zhong Yongliang's eyes lit up at once. "Dad, I've got an idea! I know how to deal with Wei Zhao!"
"Oh? Let's hear it." Zhong Fabai had not expected his son to come up with something so quickly, and he was somewhat uneasy besides—the boy had not cooked up some idiotic scheme again, had he? A good thing he had spoken up first; had he gone and carried it out on his own, there would only have been more trouble. "Son, weigh a thing three times before you act. Don't be rash!"
"Dad, there's no need to say it. I know I have been too impulsive before—childish, even!" Zhong Yongliang shook his head, speaking earnestly. "But I have truly learned my lesson from this, and I have thought it through! I used to be too flashy, so I ran into someone I could not afford to provoke, and I was punished for it!"
