Under everyone's gaze, Ouyang Feng sighed, then looked at Ye Qiu with a hint of helplessness and slowly said, "My background is indeed not as strong as his!"
Everyone was dumbfounded, not understanding what was happening.
And the next words from Ouyang Feng left them stunned, and then they all gasped as they looked at Ye Qiu.
"He is the grandson of Ye Lao from the Ye Family. If we're comparing, I really am not as powerful as him!"
...
"What? The grandson of Ye Lao from the Ye Family? We know all the young masters of the Ye Family, but we've never heard of him?"
"Yes, the Ye Family has two young masters, Ye Long and Ye Han. When was there a Ye Qiu? Wait, his surname is Ye, Ye Qiu? Ye Family? Ye Lao's grandson?"
"No, it can't be, this, how is this possible, he is Ye Lao's grandson."
For a moment, those who had previously mocked Ye Qiu only felt their hearts pounding, and their eyes filled with incredulity as they looked at Ye Qiu. Meanwhile, those from the Luo Family who had looked down and mocked Ye Qiu felt their legs go weak and their mouths dry.
"He turned out to be Ye Lao's grandson from the Ye Family, he actually has such a prominent background. It's ridiculous we were mocking him just now for not being worthy of Luo Bing. If he really is a young master from the Ye Family, then who isn't worthy of whom? It's our Luo Bing's good fortune if he's interested in her!"
"This kid is hiding so deeply, I should have realized it earlier. From his calm demeanor just now, I should have thought of it. Now it's over, I've offended him, missing a chance to befriend the Ye Family."
Luo Guozhang, the old patriarch of the Luo Family, was no less shocked than the younger ones, but his thoughts were far more thorough, and his regret was very strong.
The Ye Family is the head of the four great families, and although the Ouyang Family is also one of the four great families, it ranks last and cannot be compared with the Ye Family.
Because the Ye Family controls the military power, and also holds a large part of the political power, no matter how strong the Ouyang Family is, it can't be compared with the Ye Family.
If the Luo Family could connect with the Ye Family, then in a few years, with the support of the Ye Family, they might even stand on an equal footing with the Ouyang Family.
But thinking about it now, it's all too late, too late…
"So that's how it is, I was wondering where I had seen this kid before."
After hearing about Ye Qiu's identity, Ouyang Lin suddenly realized, remembering the day he met and chatted with Ye Lao, who told him that he had found his long-lost grandson and showed him Ye Qiu's picture, saying that he might let him take over the Ye Family in the future.
So now, after the realization, Ouyang Lin's mind was spinning rapidly. Since Ye Qiu would take over the Ye Family and become the patriarch, they now need to do everything they can to build a good relationship with Ye Qiu.
Ouyang Lin was self-aware; although they wanted to become the Ye Family, they could never become the Ye Family in a lifetime or several lifetimes because the Ye Family not only has great power on the surface but also hides one of the oldest families in Huaxia, standing quietly in the background. If the Ye Family ever faces trouble, someone from that family could easily resolve everything for the Ye Family.
Bam.
At this moment, the room door opened again, and immediately they saw Zhou Tianlong with a sullen face, followed by the hotel manager with a bruised face.
Seeing Zhou Tianlong walking towards Ye Qiu with a sullen face, Luo Bing, who was shocked by Ye Qiu's identity, quickly tugged at Ye Qiu and said, "Ye Qiu he..."
But then considering Ye Qiu's identity, she thought: "I really didn't expect Ye Qiu to be a part of the Ye Family, then Zhou Tianlong wouldn't dare to do anything to him, is this your confidence?"
At the same time, for some reason, Luo Bing felt a surge of excitement after knowing Ye Qiu was from the Ye Family.
"Kneel down."
But when Ouyang Lin saw Zhou Tianlong walking towards Ye Qiu with a sullen face, ready to step up and help Ye Qiu in order to foster a good relationship, he saw that after Zhou Tianlong arrived in front of Ye Qiu, he barked an order to the manager behind him.
Immediately they saw the bruised manager kneeling in front of Ye Qiu.
And Zhou Tianlong, full of apology, sincerely bowed to Ye Qiu and apologized, "Benefactor, my subordinate was disrespectful to you, I hope you won't take offense, Tianlong apologizes to you here."
Gah!
With Zhou Tianlong's words, the people in the room, who hadn't yet recovered from the shock of Ye Qiu's identity, were once again immensely shocked, their mouths opened and closed repeatedly.
Who is Zhou Tianlong? He is the leader of the greatest commercial empire in Huaxia, the head of the Zhou Family, already the Zhou Family's patriarch at a young age.
If the Zhou Family continues to develop at this pace, it might become the fifth great family alongside the four great families in the future.
Yet, as the patriarch of the Zhou Family at this moment, he disregarded everything, bowing and apologizing sincerely to Ye Qiu.
Even if Ye Qiu's identity as a young master of the Ye Family, Zhou Tianlong shouldn't have done this…
So at this moment, people looked at Ye Qiu with even more disbelief, deep dread, and fear.
The most frightened now were those from the Luo Family. They were not part of the four great families, but knowing Ye Qiu's identity and seeing Zhou Tianlong bowing in salutation, they understood that with just one word from Ye Qiu, they'd be finished.
In the future, even the survival of the Luo Family could become very challenging. After all, facing the suppression of both the Ye Family and the Zhou Family, along with some families taking shots in the dark, thinking about it, the old patriarch of the Luo Family, Luo Guozhang, felt cold sweat dripping down his back, and quickly looked towards Luo Bing.
And those from the Luo Family were full of hope, looking at Luo Bing with pleading eyes.
Deeply shocked by Ye Qiu, Luo Bing naturally saw the looks coming from her family members, and sighed helplessly. She clearly remembered how they treated her just now, but then they suddenly changed, which made her feel the fickleness of human nature.
However, being a member of the Luo Family, she glanced at Ye Qiu. Ye Qiu seemed to sense it and gave Luo Bing a slight smile, then his gaze swept over the people from the Luo Family.
When Ye Qiu's gaze swept over them, those people immediately lowered their heads, initially fearing Ye Qiu's combat prowess, now fearing Ye Qiu's background.
Seeing their fearful appearances, Ye Qiu shook his head, thinking to himself, "Indeed, everything is about power. As long as you have power, you can make anyone bow."
"I have just one thing to say."
Ye Qiu pondered for a moment, then told the people of the Luo Family, "I just want to say that from now on, Luo Bing is to be in charge of her own life; none of you can interfere, understood?"
The people immediately nodded in agreement, afraid that Ye Qiu would blame them if they were slow.
Ye Qiu nodded, and then said, "Also, I hope you all won't be so superficial and judge people by their appearance in the future. After all, not everyone has 'I am rich, I have a background, I am powerful' written on their face. This time you met me, I'm not holding a grudge, but if you meet someone else, I think…"
Ye Qiu's words made those from the Luo Family feel deeply embarrassed, but in their hearts, they did not fully agree with Ye Qiu's words, because how often does one meet someone as strong in identity and power as Ye Qiu in a lifetime?
Moreover, encountering such a thing once is enough.
