After the meal, just before Jiang Yu and Liu Qiang departed, a set of keys was delivered. Zhou Hengyang stepped into the courtyard and exchanged a few words with the sender before placing the keys down and departing.
Liu Chun leaned against the window, peering out.
âBig Brother, what are you looking at?â Liu Qiang joined him, curious.
Liu Chun studied the scene intently, his body tense with anticipation. Suddenly, he moved so abruptly that Liu Qiang nearly stumbled over. Thankfully, he caught himself in time.
âWhoâs that? He was so secretive, not even showing his face,â Liu Qiang remarked.
In the dimly lit courtyard, Zhou Hengyang and the figure who delivered the keys stood beneath a tree. The senderâs back was turned toward the main courtyard, rendering his features indistinct. All Liu Qiang could discern was a shadowy figure standing at about ear level, radiating an air of authority.
Liu Qiang sensed danger emanating from the mysterious figure, prompting him to remain silent.
Previously, both he and Jiang Yu had operated on a different level from Zhou Hengyang, not in terms of social status but in terms of personal capability and occupational power. Liu Qiang had heard vague warnings about Zhou Hengyang, always ending with the admonition: âDo not provoke.â
In all honesty, were it not for Su Wenâs book signing event, they would never have crossed paths with Zhou Hengyang. It was a pleasant surprise to forge an acquaintance and offer mutual assistance.
The two of them huddled by the floor-to-ceiling window, leaving Jiang Yu alone in the living room out of sheer boredom. Tempted by curiosity, he considered eavesdropping on the conversation but thought better of it, refraining out of politeness.
âCome on, letâs go. Youâve been staring for ages. Did you see anything?â Liu Chun intervened, dragging Liu Qiang away. âItâs impossible to hear anything from this distance.â
âNo, I couldnât make out anything. Itâs too far,â Liu Qiang confessed.
âWhere did you pick up those sly skills?â Liu Chun chided with a laugh. âYou two have been a great help today. If you ever need assistance in the future, just ask.â
Liu Chun had a knack for getting along with everyone.
âBrother Chun, youâre too kind. We didnât do much,â Liu Qiang humbly replied. âIf you ever need anything from us, just let us know.â
âAlright then. We wonât keep you any longer. Itâs been quite a hectic day,â Liu Chun said as they bid farewell.
As Jiang Yu approached to greet Liu Chun, the key deliverer had already departed from the courtyard. With a brief nod, the two of them passed by Zhou Hengyang and left.
Outside the courtyard, Liu Qiang let out a sigh of relief. âJiang Yu, did you notice how nervous you were around the eldest son of the Zhou family? I couldnât even bring myself to talk to him. Liu Chun handles everything so smoothly.â
The pressure exerted by the Zhou familyâs eldest son was immense. Just a brief interaction sent chills down his spine.
Jiang Yu nodded in agreement. âIndeed, but I think heâs a good person.â Observing Zhou Hengyang throughout the day, Jiang Yu was surprised by his genuine concern for Su Wen. It was rare to see such devotion from a man towards his wife.
âWhy would you say that?â Liu Qiang exclaimed in disbelief. âWhy are you defending your romantic rival? Admiration is one thing, but rivals are another.â
Once again, he started to talk badly.
