Chapter 401: Chapter 401

"Ah? He dares to compete with the Wu Family for business? Elder Master Li is said to be planning to open a film and television base, which is a huge deal!" Zhou Juan wasn't completely uninformed and had a rough idea of why Li Chenggong came to Huadu.

After all, Li Chenggong's arrival in Huadu was a hot topic among people from the upper echelons of society, and even without making a deliberate effort, Zhou Juan could still learn some insider information.

Zhou Sheng helplessly said, "The Wu Family is strong, but do you know? Even the eight Chief Protectors of the powerful Wu Family were all killed instantaneously by Xu Hao alone!"

"How is that possible!"

Zhou Juan's face was full of disbelief, "The Chief Protectors of the Wu Family are all at the peak of mastery at the very least, each capable of holding their own. How could eight of them be instantly killed by Xu Hao alone?!"

"Hmph! All the Family Heads were present at that time, and everyone saw that brutally violent scene with Xu Hao. Yet, you question the authenticity of that event? Ridiculous!" Zhou Sheng became somewhat angry, seeing that Zhou Juan still did not believe what he was saying. Would he really lie to her?

What would be the benefit of lying to her?

Zhou Juan started to have second thoughts as well, whispering, "According to what you're saying, Xu Hao's strength is far too great. I can no longer provoke him; if he's so savage and happens to kill me, where would I go to reason with him?"

Zhou Sheng nodded and said, "That's exactly it. Xu Hao's strength is too strong, there's no need for us to deliberately go against the wind and cause trouble with him. If he doesn't bother us, we should be thankful for that alone."

After pondering for a while, Zhou Juan still felt unwilling and said, "But I still feel uneasy if I don't make things difficult for Xu Hao. I won't be satisfied."

Women always act on emotion!

Zhou Sheng looked down on such behavior. Despite his young age, he always acted prudently and would definitely not take rash actions unless it was an accident. He got close to Zhou Juan solely to establish ties with the Qian Family.

He always believed that one should not put all their eggs in one basket and needed to diversify investments. If he relied solely on the Zhou Family and the family fell, all his efforts would be in vain.

But now that Zhou Juan had spoken, he couldn't ignore her and said, "Auntie, don't worry. Every man stumbles, every horse falls. Xu Hao will definitely make a mistake one day, and then you can properly humiliate him to soothe your grudge. In front of everyone, he surely won't attack a woman, and since you're the wife of the main branch head of the Qian Family, for the sake of cooperating with the Qian Family, he won't make a move against you."

Zhou Juan hastily said, "Sheng, help me think of a way to publicly embarrass Xu Hao."

Zhou Sheng smiled and replied, "To embarrass someone in public is quite simple, just make him display something he's not familiar with before everyone. However, we must first find out what Xu Hao isn't good at. Let's hold off on this for now. Once I have conducted my investigation, we will take action to make Xu Hao the laughingstock."

Zhou Juan had no choice but to nod in agreement, yet her mind was busy scheming on how to seriously harm Xu Hao.

Seeing Zhou Juan's demeanor, how could Zhou Sheng not know that this woman was utterly unresigned?

But he was out of options; he was already overwhelmed with his troubles with Wang Chun Jiao and couldn't manage this one as well. Content presented by *.

He couldn't help but wonder if he truly needed to meet those two respected Americans. Yet, those two were certainly no saints, and once he went to them, he could face utter ruin.

Zhou Family Eldest, Zhou Changcun's injuries had largely healed after Xu Hao's treatment, but Zhou Changcun still hadn't let anyone remove the bandages. Therefore, Zhou Jiandong had no idea that his older brother was already restored to health, and was plotting to settle scores with him.

The news of Elder Qian's recovery from a serious illness was deliberately spread by Qian Changle, and it quickly became well-known throughout Huadu's upper society.

Many people learned that Elder Qian Shanchuan's Parkinson's syndrome was cured by Xu Hao. Now, the news of Xu Hao possessing miraculous medical skills was fully acknowledged by many in the upper echelons of society.

Qian Changle even personally delivered an invitation to Xu Hao, inviting him to a banquet at his reserved estate.

Looking at the beautifully decorated, gold-inlaid and diamond-studded invitation in her hand, Anna said, "Brother Hao, I heard that Liuguang Villa is one of the several great estates of Huadu, a summer retreat with beautiful scenery. It's a popular spot for hosting dinners because it has three rows of Chang Pavilions, which can accommodate a thousand people dining at once, but I heard it's very expensive."

Jiang Xuezhun added, "Indeed, every inch of land in Huadu is valuable. Villas require a large amount of land, which is why Huadu only has three villas in total, and Liuguang Villa is one of them. The other two are Yicai Estate and Huxiao Villa. People say that the names 'Liuguang' and 'Yicai' are so coincidentally matched that they must belong to the same owner, yet no one has come forward to claim ownership. Qian Changle choosing this place for his banquet shows he really wants to publicly thank my husband for saving his father."
