Chapter 1009: Chapter 1009

Shen Mange was amused by her sister’s words, “You really are a good sister, knowing how to put your sister in a tough spot at a critical moment.”

Zhang Yang also laughed and said, “Take good care of your injury, the matter of offering yourself still needs you to do it.”

“As for your sister, she’s already mine.”

Zhang Yang wrapped the superstar’s waist in his arms.

Shen Mange felt a little shy, but didn’t resist. Instead, she felt a tickle in her heart, recalling what happened in the bathroom last night.

She hoped to have another moment of joy, but just then, Zhang Yang’s phone rang.

Zhang Yang took out his phone and saw it was from Xu Mengyan, so he answered it.

“Zhang Yang, where are you?”

Zhang Yang slightly frowned, not because he didn’t trust Xu Mengyan, but because Xu Mengyan might also be under surveillance now.

“Is there something wrong? Things are relatively safe here; you all just stay at the hotel and don’t worry about anything else.”

Zhang Yang didn’t want to drag Xu Mengyan in or make things difficult for her; the conflict with Xu Jiajia and the Guo Family had just begun.

Xu Mengyan asked Zhang Yang, “Did you expose Guo Qiyu for colluding with the photography contest organizers and Maozi?”

Zhang Yang certainly wouldn’t deny it, “I did it, why, are you here to speak on his behalf?”

Xu Mengyan hesitated a little but then made up her mind and said to Zhang Yang, “Could you not use public opinion to deal with the Guo Family? I’m not trying to help them, but such a fight is not suitable for public knowledge, or it could cause public panic.”

“As it would, it’s not beneficial for either side.”

“Of course, if you agree, they will also withdraw the wanted notice for you and issue a public apology, since they’re the ones who started it.”

Sure enough, Xu Mengyan came to plead, but this reason Zhang Yang could accept.

But letting Guo Qiyu off just like that was too lenient for that bastard, who went for Shen Jiayi at that time.

If he hadn’t arrived in time, and with the twins, Qiao Dongna and Georgina really treating Shen Jiayi as a friend, fixing the mistake in time, otherwise Shen Jiayi could have been in trouble.

So Zhang Yang said to Xu Mengyan, “Tell them a simple apology won’t solve the problem.”

“Have Guo Qiyu cut off two of his fingers.”

“That’s my biggest concession; otherwise, I don’t care about any panic—there’s a traditional saying in Dragon Country, also tell Guo Qiyu, those who are barefoot aren’t afraid of those who wear shoes. What difference does it make to a lone guy like me, Zhang Yang?”

Hearing Zhang Yang say this, Xu Mengyan immediately agreed.

She knew that for Zhang Yang’s temperament, this was already the biggest concession.

“Alright, I will relay this message.”

After hanging up the phone, Xu Mengyan looked at the two families opposite her.

It turned out that at this time, the Xu family and the Guo Family were sitting opposite Xu Mengyan.

“You must have heard what I said just now, I’ve said what needed to be said.”

The Xu family looked at the Guo Family, especially Guo Qiyu.

Now, it was up to Guo Qiyu to make his own decision.

“Who does Zhang Yang think he is? How dare he demand my two fingers?”

Seeing Guo Qiyu’s furious appearance, Mr. Guo’s face also turned grim.

“This Zhang Yang is indeed going too far, Xu Mengyan, can you arrange a meeting with Zhang Yang for us to sit down and talk?”

But Xu Mengyan directly refused, “Being a messenger is already my biggest compromise.”

“You want to use me to lure Zhang Yang out and then take action against him, that’s something I can’t do, and don’t take me for a fool.”

Mr. Guo’s face looked somewhat unpleasant, “What nonsense are you spouting? Didn’t we do all this to help your Xu Family? Now that the Guo Family is in trouble, and you’re just sitting there watching without caring, doesn’t that seem unreasonable?”

His words made sense, but Xu Zhuang also said, “That’s true, but don’t forget, my daughter said beforehand she wouldn’t get involved in these matters.”

“This failure has nothing to do with my daughter.”

Seeing Xu Zhuang so protective of his daughter made Mr. Guo even angrier.

“Nothing to do with her? I seriously suspect your daughter is in collusion with Zhang Yang now.”

“Look at her. Her husband is being threatened with having his two fingers chopped off, and she’s acting aloof and indifferent.”

“If the Xu Family’s attitude is like this, then we won’t be involved in the matter of dealing with Zhang Yang.”

Upon hearing this, Second Brother Xu finally spoke, “Xu Mengyan, if the Xu and Guo families fall, you won’t have a good time either.”

“I order you to bring Zhang Yang out, and I can transfer part of my shares to you.”

“But if you still refuse, you won’t be part of the Xu family anymore.”

It was clear that Second Brother Xu, sitting in the wheelchair, was considerably dissatisfied with and critical of Xu Mengyan.

Xu Zhuang looked dissatisfied at his brother, actually threatening his daughter in front of outsiders.

Although Xu Zhuang also wanted to deal with Zhang Yang properly, he had only one daughter and didn’t want to see anyone bully her.

“Second Brother, she’s your niece, look at how you’re acting as an uncle?”

Hearing this, Second Brother Xu suddenly struck the armrest of his wheelchair excitedly.

“Big Brother, look at your good daughter, does she treat me like an uncle? Look at how Zhang Yang left me, crippling my two legs, and my son was handicapped by Zhang Yang.”

“This blood feud is right here, but your daughter is siding with an outsider.”

Faced with such accusations, Xu Zhuang was at a loss for words, as this was the reality.

His daughter’s attitude also made Xu Zhuang somewhat discontented, but there was nothing he could do; she was his only daughter.

Moreover, from his daughter’s perspective, Zhang Yang was not at fault. The Xu family was to blame for provoking Zhang Yang, leading to the current situation.

At this moment, Xu Mengyan stood up.

“Second Uncle, stop morally blackmailing me. I’m not a three-year-old. Didn’t I warn you back then not to mess with Zhang Yang? Didn’t you listen to me?”

“You acted willfully; who do you blame for that?”

“Since you didn’t listen to me then, how dare you ask for my help now?”

With these words, Xu Mengyan finally tore all face with her second uncle, words she’d suppressed for ages.

“I’ll say it one last time. From start to finish, Zhang Yang hasn’t wronged any of you. It was you who sent Xu Qiangsen and a group of mercenaries to cause trouble in Dragon Country.”

“No matter how you plan to deal with Zhang Yang now, don’t think of using me. Otherwise, I might just side with Zhang Yang.”
