How could they have forgotten this?
The owner behind the villa was not short of money at all.
Why would he use a fake mural to put in this pavilion for people to admire?
So, from the beginning, Xue Meimei was digging her own grave.
"Alas, I actually pity this young lady."
"It's fate, perhaps the Xue family was destined for this calamity today."
"But speaking of which, the details Zhou Yu mentioned earlier really sounded plausible."
"You guys know nothing. If you ask me, the traces Mr. Zhou found would be acknowledged even by an expert!"
The people around them were murmuring softly.
With the great god Qian Fuhua present, they didn't dare to speak too loudly.
But Zhang Rufeng and Su Qishan's eyes widened when they heard the words "Mr. Zhou".
What was going on?
Since when did Zhou Yu gain another title?
Just as Su Qishan and his wife were confused, Qian Fuhua turned to Zhou Yu and said, "Mr. Zhou, I have something I'd like to discuss with you. Do you have time?"
"I have plenty of time, Boss Qian. Please, this way." Zhou Yu gestured.
Qian Fuhua looked at Su Yuyan.
He knew this was the Miss Su who had registered her marriage with the Young Boss.
With delicate features, a tall figure, and a graceful demeanor, she was indeed a rare gem of a beauty.
The Young Boss had good taste.
No, wait!
Su Yuyan was now Zhou Yu's nominal wife, which meant Qian Fuhua had to address her as—sister-in-law.
"Perhaps I should excuse myself?"
Hearing that the two had something to discuss, Su Yuyan instinctively wanted to leave.
But Zhou Yu grabbed her small hand, "You're my wife, what is there that you can't hear?"
The words "my wife" made Su Yuyan blush.
Especially since Zhou Yu had called her that so openly in front of Qian Fuhua.
At this moment, Su Yuyan's heart was filled with sweetness.
"Miss Su, there's no need. Please come with us," Qian Fuhua said with a smile.
As if!
Even if he were given ten thousand dares, he wouldn't dare to ask sister-in-law to leave!
Under everyone's gaze.
Qian Fuhua, Zhou Yu, and Su Yuyan left together, heading towards a quiet spot.
Su Qishan and his wife, who had witnessed everything, were already stunned speechless.
No matter how much they speculated, they couldn't imagine that Qian Fuhua's attitude towards Zhou Yu was so respectful.
To know that he was Qian Fuhua, the Chairman of Yunhai City's Tianlan Group!
The dignified richest man, calling a mere youngster "Mr. Zhou"?
If they hadn't heard it with their own ears, Su Qishan and Zhang Rufeng would have thought they were dreaming, that it was all unreal.
"My dear, did I hear that correctly?"
Zhang Rufeng trembled as she reached out and grabbed Su Qishan's arm.
But she found that her husband was trembling all over.
Su Qishan said in horror, "You didn't mishear. Qian Fuhua did call Zhou Yu 'Mr. Zhou'."
In a flash.
Countless thoughts surged through his mind.
Su Qishan desperately wanted to understand the relationship between Zhou Yu and Qian Fuhua.
Because this was related to the future of the Su family!
If, at this moment, someone asked Su Qishan whether he preferred the Zhang family or Tianlan Group,
Su Qishan would answer without hesitation: "Tianlan Group!"
Indeed, Zhang's Group was a top three enterprise in Yunhai City, and the Zhang family, whether in terms of money or power, made other families tremble.
But besides the Zhang family, Yunhai City also had Jin's Group and Tianlan Group.
Either of the latter two, standing alone, was much stronger than Zhang's Group!
In terms of power, the Zhang family was inferior to the Jin family, and Qian Fuhua was inferior to Zhang Deshuang.
But in terms of economic strength, Tianlan Group could easily overpower both Zhang's Group and Jin's Group!
And even if the bank funds of the Jin and Zhang families were combined, they wouldn't match the strength of Tianlan Group.
Qian Fuhua was the true richest man in Yunhai City.
Even in the entire Long Country, he could rank in the top twenty!
"My dear, doesn't that mean that young man Zhou Yu actually has a powerful background?" Zhang Rufeng asked, stunned.
Thinking about the excessive words she and her husband had said to Zhou Yu just a few days ago, Zhang Rufeng's legs felt weak.
Tianlan Group was not someone the Su family could afford to offend!
Even the Zhang family didn't dare to provoke Qian Fuhua lightly.
But this young man Zhou Yu, wasn't he an abandoned son expelled from the Zhou family in Jiangnan?
How did he manage to establish this connection with Qian Fuhua?
Zhang Rufeng couldn't understand.
In just two days, the situation had changed drastically.
Su Qishan said with a bitter smile, "Whether Zhou Yu has a background or not, at least in Qian Fuhua's eyes, he's different from most people."
This was bad.
His wife and he had always planned to enlist the Zhang family's help to drive Zhou Yu out of Yunhai City.
But who would have thought that Zhou Yu actually had this connection with Qian Fuhua?
If Zhou Yu were to complain to the big boss of Tianlan Group, the Su family would be finished this time.
"Then what should we do now? On one side is the Zhang family, and on the other is Qian Fuhua. Our Su family can't afford to offend either," Zhang Rufeng said nervously.
Just then, some acquaintances came over to congratulate them.
"Brother Qishan! Madam Su! Your Su family has found such a good son-in-law in Zhou Yu. Su's Company will surely prosper in the future. Our Liu family will have to rely on your Su family's support!"
"Yes, yes, the Su family's future is bright. Brother Su, when you become successful in the future, don't forget your old friends."
"A young talent who is highly regarded by the Chairman of Tianlan Group himself. The Su family's son-in-law has an unlimited future."
Listening to the flattery from the people around him, Su Qishan felt increasingly uneasy.
They were clearly congratulating him.
But in reality, it sounded more like mockery to him.
However, these people had no idea about the embarrassing events that had happened to the Su family a few days ago.
"It's just luck, pure luck."
Su Qishan could only force a smile and cup his fists in greeting to each of them.
Seeing this situation, Zhang Rufeng's heart sank to the bottom.
She was thinking.
Was there any good way to salvage the current situation?
Should she start with Su Yuyan?
It seemed that was the only option.
...
In a quiet corner of the villa.
Qian Fuhua saw that there were no outsiders around and said directly, "Young Boss, I just received news that Battle God Leng Xue will not be attending the welcoming banquet this time."
"She's not attending the banquet she arranged?" Zhou Yu was stunned.
What was this cool Battle God up to?
Yunlan Villa was filled with influential figures from Yunhai City today. If Leng Xue didn't attend, wouldn't it be a slap in the face to all the major families of Yunhai City?
Qian Fuhua shook his head, "I don't know the reason for that either."
"Alright," Zhou Yu nodded.
Then, the corners of his mouth curved upwards.
"Young Boss, what are you smiling about?" Qian Fuhua asked, confused.
Meanwhile, Su Yuyan, listening to their conversation,
Her beautiful eyes narrowed, her small mouth parted, and her expression was akin to an old man on the subway looking at his phone.
