"Grandpa Lin, Uncle Lin, Aunt,"
Lü Zheming and Cao Yan greeted the newcomers with light laughter.
"Haha, your family got here early. You young people chat; we're going off to meet the Family Head," the Lin Family elder greeted cheerfully, taking a middle-aged couple away towards the area where the Yue Family was staying.
Watching the three of them leave, Lü Zheming turned to Lin Chao: "Lin Chao, how's it going with Dong Yu?"
Lin Chao looked at Lü Zheming warily, suspiciously asking, "What are you up to? Don't try to get information out of me. I tell you, I'm not giving up!"
"I know you won't give up, but our competition is internal. Now there's an outsider trying to get involved, don't you want to teach him a lesson?" Lü Zheming said with profound meaning.
"There's another outsider targeting Dong Yu?" Lin Chao's expression darkened as he spoke coldly.
Lü Zheming blinked, his eyebrows lifting slightly: "What do you mean by 'another'?"
"Since you've said as much, then let's share the intelligence!" Lin Chao spoke softly, "At our high school reunion today, Dong Yu brought a guy with her, and it seemed there was something unusual about their relationship."
"Oh? Is that so? You didn't teach him a lesson?" Lü Zheming said in surprise.
Cao Yan giggled, "Lin Chao, by the look of things, it seems like you got the short end of the stick with that guy?"
"How could I be at a disadvantage?"
Lin Chao's face changed slightly, not wanting to appear weak in front of Lü Zheming, his romantic rival, and said forcefully, "I'm just not stooping to his level. That kid has some background, and I didn't want to cause a scene during the old man's birthday celebration, especially in front of Dong Yu, so I let him off."
Lü Zheming smiled lightly, "Leaving that guy aside, someone has made their way to the Yue Family now. What do you say? Shall we deal with that guy together?"
"Of course we need to deal with..."
Lin Chao's words spilled out before he suddenly paused, giving Lü Zheming a suspicious look: "You're not setting a trap for me, are you? Who is this guy? Really someone after Dong Yu?"
Lü Zheming affirmed with an earnest face: "Certainly someone after Dong Yu. If you don't believe me, ask Cao Yan. I made a few comments about that guy earlier, and Dong Yu almost blew up at me!"
"Really?" Lin Chao turned to look at Cao Yan.
Cao Yan nodded: "Really, the Zhuo siblings saw it too. If you don't believe it, go ask them, ask if Dong Yu didn't almost turn on Zheming because of a man!"
"Damn it! Jiang Chen showed up at noon, and now this bastard shows up; they really think Lin Chao is easy to bully!" Lin Chao's face darkened as he spoke through gritted teeth.
"Wait a minute! Who did you say? Jiang Chen? Which Jiang Chen?" Lü Zheming was taken aback and asked in surprise.
Lin Chao said irritably, "What do you mean which Jiang Chen, it's that piece of crap Jiang Chen, the Family Head of the Jiang Family of Jincheng, a trash head of a secular family, daring to compete with me for Dong Yu. Just watch, as soon as the old man's birthday celebration is over, I'm going to destroy him!"
"No need to wait, we can do it now!"
Lü Zheming smirked, "The one I mentioned is Jiang Chen, the Family Head of the Jiang Family of Jincheng. This scumbag has chased all the way here to the Yue Family. Lin Chao, we need to give him a taste of his own medicine soon. Otherwise, from the way Dong Yu treats him, I'm afraid..."
"What? That bastard came to the Yue Family? He's really asking for it!"
Lin Chao cried out in shock and anger, his face turning the color of liver.
"Yeah, he's made it all the way here. Don't you think he is being too brazen? During the great birthday celebration, when did a minor family head from the Secular World ever qualify to offer birthday wishes? It must have been Dong Yu inviting him."
Lü Zheming's eyes flicked, adding fuel to the fire, "I think they are probably planning to announce their relationship using this opportunity. If we don't make that kid back off beforehand and they announce their relationship in front of so many people tomorrow, we'll really have no chance!"
"No way, we absolutely can't let that happen. Let's go find that bastard together!" Lin Chao bellowed.
"Fine, let's go. We'll deal with Dong Yu's affiliation separately. It doesn't matter which one of us brothers marries Dong Yu, we just can't let outsiders take advantage!" Lü Zheming hastily agreed, blinking at Cao Yan.
Cao Yan smiled slightly, a gleam of anticipation for the spectacle appeared in her eyes.
"Do you know where he lives?" Lin Chao asked softly.
Lü Zheming nodded: "I know. When I came here, I asked around. There are two buildings in the VIP complex, one is the Number One VIP Building, the other is the Number Four VIP Building. I met Grandpa Dong Tianchen in front of the Number Four VIP Building, so Jiang Chen must be living in the Number One VIP Building."
"Let's go find him. Damn it, it's too much to bear that he dares to chase us all the way here. He's really asking for trouble!"
Lin Chao cursed as he headed in the direction of the Number One VIP Building.
Lü Zheming and Cao Yan exchanged glances and followed.
The Yue Family youngsters training in the square saw the trio of Lü Zheming heading menacingly towards the VIP complex. They exchanged looks, and a fifteen- or sixteen-year-old teen quietly followed.
Lü Zheming and the others arrived at the entrance of the Number One VIP Building and glanced up at the second-floor balcony, where Qingyuan Yingzi was hanging laundry.
"Damn it, Jiang Chen has a woman here and still covets Dong Yu. What a scumbag!" cursed Lin Chao, stepping towards the attic entrance.
"Who are you looking for?"
Qingyuan Yingzi looked at the three men below and, sensing their hostile intentions, called out.
The trio ignored Qingyuan Yingzi and approached the attic. Lin Chao fiercely kicked at the door of the Number One VIP building.
Bang!
There was a muffled sound as the door was kicked open by Lin Chao, but it didn't break. Though angered, Lin Chao still remembered that this was the Yue Family's territory, so he didn't dare to damage anything here wantonly.
The Yue Family youth, who had followed from a distance, turned pale and quickly turned to run towards the area where the Yue Family lived.
"What are you doing?"
Qingyuan Yingzi frowned, leaped from the balcony, and swiftly arrived at the door to block Lin Chao and his companions' way.
"What's going on?"
A low voice sounded as Yan Hu and Spirit You came down the stairs.
"Where's Jiang Chen? Tell him to get out here!" shouted Lin Chao.
"Hey hey, looking for trouble, are we? I'd like to see who's so eager to die!" A mocking voice sounded.
Click!
Whoosh!
A window on the third floor opened, and Leng Ming jumped out, landing directly behind Lin Chao and the others.
"Who are you?" Yan Hu frowned at the three men and asked in a stern voice.
Lin Chao shouted loudly: "None of your business, Jiang Chen, come out!"
"Shut up!" Yan Hu yelled, about to rush forward.
"Hu Zi!" Another shout sounded, and Yan Hu paused, turning to look towards the staircase.
