Chapter 1389: Chapter 1470: Sudden Braking!
Five luxurious cars were heading towards the old residence of the Zhou Family.
Zhou Shuo and Zhou Yuzhu were inside the middle luxury car, both sitting in the backseat, puffing on cigars.
Zhou Yuzhu’s words still echoed in Zhou Shuo’s mind. He hadn’t expected his nephew’s heart to be so dark, it even made him feel a chilling sensation.
Then again, as a member of a large family, one should be like this. Without a bit of ruthlessness, how would he shoulder the family’s burdens in the future?
With this thought, Zhou Shuo felt relieved.
Silence returned between the two, and aside from thinking about what Zhou Yuzhu had just said, Zhou Shuo also contemplated other issues, like that Fang Xiaotian.
This matter definitely wouldn’t end just like this.
It concerned the Zhou Family’s reputation. Even if they didn’t kill Fang Xiaotian, they had to cripple him.
Too many people witnessed their actions tonight with Zhou Yuzhu, only to be ruined by a woman. Zhou Shuo didn’t even need to think about it; the news of this would leak the next day, becoming the subject of many conversations. He just hoped it wouldn’t escalate too much.
No matter what, Fang Xiaotian must be dealt with. This was absolute.
As for that woman, she might be associated with Fang Xiaotian, but what if she has companions? This is State City, a place where the Zhou Family has been established for over a hundred years. What’s there to fear from just a woman?
Hmm, that area is managed by the Black Dragon Alliance, some things could be handed over for the Black Dragon Alliance to handle.
Zhou Shuo thought about many things at once, then glanced at Zhou Yuzhu next to him, with his legs crossed and a cigar in his hand, letting it burn in silence, seemingly contemplating the same issues.
Zhou Shuo thus decided not to disturb him, shifted his body, and a wave of pain surged through. Fortunately, they were just injuries from punches and kicks. Their family had a dedicated doctor, and the old residence had professional doctors hired at high salaries. He could be bandaged and treated when they got back. All he could say was that he was unlucky to have encountered that madwoman today.
But such an unfortunate event happens only occasionally; there’s no need to pay too much attention to it.
Zhou Shuo thought to himself.
Suddenly, the driver slammed on the gas pedal and floored it, causing the car to lurch forward. Zhou Shuo and Zhou Yuzhu were caught off guard. Sitting unbuckled in the back, their bodies tilted forward.
Zhou Shuo was alright, as he hadn’t crossed his legs and instinctively braced himself against the front seat, stabilizing himself.
But Zhou Yuzhu wasn’t as fortunate. The unexpected braking, with his legs crossed and his thoughts elsewhere, led him to lean forward, his forehead smacking against the seat, followed by a muffled groan.
Zhou Shuo glanced at Zhou Yuzhu, seeing his handsome face darken with an ominous expression, and he too became angry.
"What’s the matter with you, how the hell are you driving, are you looking to die?" Zhou Shuo shouted angrily at the driver in front.
"Fourth Master, I... I didn’t do it on purpose, look ahead..." the driver hastily explained. Because the vehicle in front braked suddenly, he had to follow suit as well, seemingly encountering some kind of accident.
They were almost out of the city, and the road was somewhat deserted, with only street lamps on either side and few vehicles. But up ahead, it seemed like something had happened.
It appeared to be a car accident of some sort.
"Change lanes, go through the side road," Zhou Shuo said.
From beginning to end, Zhou Shuo didn’t notice anything peculiar.
