On the other side, as Shen Yuyan listened to the conversation between Zhu Fei and Guo Qian, her heart shook with shock, and suddenly it felt as if sothing was blocking her chest, making the tip of her nose slightly sour.
She hadn’t expected that Zhu Fei not only truly knew Guo Qian but also had specifically asked Guo Qian for help on her behalf.
Zhu Fei’s action moved Shen Yuyan completely, leaving her heart filled with nothing but emotion.
She unconsciously opened her mouth as if she wanted to say sothing, but when the words reached her lips, they instantly turned into a sob.
Shen Yuyan broke down in tears, and at that mont, she could no longer control the emotions inside her heart. The tears flowed like a floodgate that had been opened, impossible to hold back.
"Shen... Sister Shen..."
Zhao Jing was equally shaken when she saw Shen Yuyan in this state.
Since she had followed Shen Yuyan, this was the first ti Zhao Jing had seen Shen Yuyan cry.
In Zhao Jing’s heart, Shen Yuyan had always been very strong, having never shed a tear no matter how great the difficulties or grievances she had encountered before.
But now, Shen Yuyan was openly displaying her vulnerability because of Zhu Fei’s actions. How could this not surprise Zhao Jing? Beyond the surprise, she felt happy for Shen Yuyan, fortunate to have t a friend like Zhu Fei.
"Mhm, okay, so we’re good, Brother Guo? Alright, goodbye."
Finally, Zhu Fei ended his call with Guo Qian.
He put away his phone and turned to look at Shen Yuyan, only to see her suddenly in tears, looking at him with eyes full of gratitude and tenderness, which took Zhu Fei aback.
After a brief mont of surprise, Zhu Fei couldn’t help but smile wryly, stepped forward a few paces towards Shen Yuyan, and joked, "I an, Sister Shen, this isn’t like you, is it? We don’t need all this, right?"
"Zhu... Zhu Fei, thank you, thank you so much."
However, faced with Zhu Fei’s jest, Shen Yuyan didn’t respond with a joke this ti, but instead spoke to him with a serious and grateful tone.
Zhu Fei, seeing this, could only shrug helplessly, pretending to be dissatisfied, "Sister Shen, this is kind of boring, isn’t it? Besides, what just happened, I had agreed to do that for you a while back, have you forgotten?"
In the midst of speaking, Zhu Fei deliberately winked at Shen Yuyan with a laugh.
Shen Yuyan’s face flushed instantly as if she rembered not having believed that Zhu Fei would truly know Guo Qian, and an expression of embarrassnt unconsciously appeared on her beautiful face.
But this embarrassnt was quickly concealed by her.
Her gaze then drifted and settled on Shui Xiong and a few others who were already pale with terror, her delicate brows furrowed slightly, her face showing a hint of concern.
"Zhu Fei, what do you plan to do with them? Given the current situation, I’m afraid..."
"Don’t worry, Sister Shen, I already told you I’d handle this matter, and I’ll definitely give you a satisfactory answer," Zhu Fei interrupted before Shen Yuyan could finish her sentence.
He was very clear about what Shen Yuyan was worried about at this point.
Shui Xiong might have been one thing, but Bai Pojun, the son of Bai Tianlong, the underground godfather of the northeast, was now completely crippled by him. Zhu Fei knew that his father wouldn’t let this go easily.
But what of it?
Now that he, Zhu Fei, had already taken action, he wouldn’t be afraid of the other party’s retribution.
To put it bluntly, it would be better if Bai Tianlong didn’t seek revenge; if he did co after him and the others, Zhu Fei wouldn’t mind dealing with Bai Tianlong as well.
Perhaps it was Zhu Fei’s confidence that Shen Yuyan sensed, or perhaps it was a nearly blind trust that Shen Yuyan had developed in Zhu Fei.
In short, after hearing Zhu Fei’s words just now, the look of worry on Shen Yuyan’s face suddenly vanished.
"Thump thump..."
At that mont, there was a sudden knocking on the door of the private room from outside.
Accompanying this were the sounds of several waitstaff attempting to stop the intruder.
"Sir, I’m sorry, you can’t go in, the guests inside are..."
"Creak—"
However, before the waitstaff could finish their attempts to stop the intruder, the door to the private room had already been opened by soone.
A man around thirty years old, wearing a white training outfit with a crew-cut and radiating an aura of Evil Qi, walked in past the obstructing waitstaff and entered the room.
"Uh..."
Perhaps because they had not expected this man to completely disregard the rules of Bright Moon Club, they were all shocked and stunned in place when they saw him enter the private room.
"Mr. Zhu, hello, my na is Hu Cang, a mber of the Royal Society’s Law Enforcent Hall. I am here on Mr. Guo’s orders to take care of a matter concerning Shui Xiong."
The crew-cut man, who claid to be Hu Cang, imdiately spotted Zhu Fei, whom he had seen before in photographs, as he entered the room. He took a few steps forward, quickly approached Zhu Fei, and bowed to explain.
"Mm, hello to you, Steward Hu."
Zhu Fei also stepped forward, greeted Hu Cang with a smile, and then turned his head to look at the waitstaff at the door.
"This is our friend. Alright, there’s nothing for you here, so please leave. Rember, the sa rules apply as before. No matter what happens here, you are not to co in without permission."
Earlier, Shui Xiong had told the waitstaff the sa thing.
Now that Zhu Fei had reiterated those words, the waitstaff were montarily taken aback.
Not knowing the identity of the people inside the room or who the real authority was, they instinctually felt that sothing was amiss, but still said nothing further. They nodded, then closed the door of the private room for Zhu Fei.
"Mm, Steward Hu, I assu Brother Guo has already inford you about the situation here? Since Shui Xiong is a mber of the Royal Society, I will not interfere with how you deal with him. Do as you see fit."
After the private room door was closed again, Zhu Fei turned and smiled at Hu Cang.
"Yes, Mr. Zhu, rest assured. Shui Xiong has gravely violated the rules of the Royal Society and must face severe punishnt."
After a brief pause, Hu Cang continued respectfully, "Mr. Zhu, please let know if this is acceptable. I will take Shui Xiong away and subject him to the punishnt of ’Three Stabs and Six Holes’, in addition to executing him by severing his limbs. Would that satisfy you?"
"Thud—"
As Hu Cang’s voice fell, before Zhu Fei could even speak, Shui Xiong, who had heard Hu Cang’s words, had involuntarily collapsed to the ground, his face deathly pale and his eyes filled with endless terror.
He was acutely aware that the punishnt Hu Cang had just ntioned would be akin to a living death for him, Shui Xiong. If he didn’t die, his remaining days would surely be spent bedridden, without any second possibility.
Contemplating this terrifying outco, Shui Xiong seed to want to struggle for Zhu Fei and Shen Yuyan’s forgiveness.
But before he could say anything, Hu Cang delivered a fierce karate chop to the back of his neck.
In an instant, Shui Xiong’s eyes rolled up, and he imdiately passed out.
"Mm, go ahead as you described, I have no objections."
Zhu Fei showed no pity and directly agreed to Hu Cang’s execution of Shui Xiong.
In his view, this punishnt worse than death was the best revenge for soone like Shui Xiong, the human ’scum’!
