Ares out of prison

Chapter 689
Seeing Zeng Shunxing being beaten in full view, none of the servants beside him dared to stop him!
After all, what they are facing is Lu Jiulian, who is a figure who overshadows the sky in Haijin!

Just like what Wang Long said just now, no matter how powerful the Zeng family is, they still won't be able to wrestle with the government!

It was precisely because of this that even if Zeng Shunxing was humiliated in public, he dared not speak out and swallowed his resentment forcefully.

"City Master Lu, what are you doing? I just invited Mr. Wang to my house for a meal!"

"Dinner? Who treats guests with a gun to someone's head?" As soon as Lu Jiulian said this, Zeng Shunxing hurriedly dismissed the servants.

Duan Yunbao and Song Yuyuan, who had been protecting Wang Long, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sorry, Mr. Wang, I just got the news, so I'm a step late!"

Seeing Lu Jiulian being so polite to Wang Long, Zeng Shunxing really did not expect it.

"City Lord Lu, what are you doing? His power is far away in the imperial capital, why should you be so polite to him?"

In his mind, he is the real boss of this Haijin, it's fine if Lu Jiulian doesn't show him a little respect, but he dares to attack him in front of so many people!This is obviously not taking their Zeng family seriously!

But even so, Lu Jiulian had no intention of giving him face at all, and even cast him a very contemptuous look.

"Mr. Wang is a partner of our Haijin government, and even a distinguished guest of my Mr. Lu! Do you still dare to fight against him?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's hearts trembled, and they looked at the young man in front of them with astonishment.

Before that, they only knew that Fei Longhui was very powerful in the imperial capital, but this was the first time they heard that Wang Long had such a close relationship with the Haijin government!
At this moment, Zeng Shunxing finally realized that his previous guess was correct. The reason why Wang Long was able to obliterate the young master of the Zeng family without any guilt was due to the backing of Lu Jiulian!
"Mr. Wang, why did this guy come to your door? Could it be that he wanted to raise a teacher and question him?"

Right now, the entire Zeng family compound is surrounded by government officials, even though Zeng Shunxing has great abilities, it is difficult to display them.

"This...how is it possible! City Lord Lu, I invited Mr. Wang here, it's really just a casual meal! There is absolutely no other meaning!" Zeng Shunxing kept explaining to Lu Jiulian, and from time to time cast a look at Wang Long .

This is clearly begging him not to expose himself to Lu Jiulian!
I saw Wang Long jokingly smiled, and really said: "City Master Lu has misunderstood, and Mr. Zeng and I have not had any conflicts!"

"I see!" Seeing that Wang Long didn't want to pursue too much, Lu Jiulian also nodded: "I warn you! What your Zeng family has done over the years has offended many people! Zeng Shuailin's death has already sounded for you. Wake-up call! If you are sensible, you'd better be honest with me, and don't cause trouble every now and then!"

"Yes yes yes! The city lord is right! I wrote it down!"

At first glance, Zeng Shunxing was a bullying master. He was so arrogant and domineering in front of Wang Long just now, and when he saw that he was in danger, he immediately made a 180-degree change, and the previous arrogance disappeared.

After the incident subsided, Lu Jiulian withdrew his troops and returned to the mansion, and Wang Long and others naturally left together.

"City Master Lu, Mr. Wang, you two go slowly, when we have time, let's get together again!"

Zeng Shunxing nodded and bowed all the way, and sent everyone to the gate of the mansion.

After watching Lu Jiulian's convoy leave, the smile on his face disappeared without a trace.

"I didn't expect that guy to get involved with Lu Jiulian, we really underestimated him!"

The housekeeper stood beside Zeng Shunxing, with a look of unwillingness: "Patriarch, should we just forget about it?"

"Forget it? It's a good idea! As the head of the Zeng family, I will never allow anyone to dare to disrespect us!"

"But... I heard that the Flying Dragon Society is quite powerful. If we clash with it rashly, we may end up losing both sides!" After all, Wang Long can suppress Yuwenshou and his like with only one team, which is enough to show that How terrifying is the strength!
However, Zeng Shunxing seems to have a different view on the butler's reminder:

"The Flying Dragon Club? It's not time to deal with them yet! The one who is really hateful is Lu Jiulian!"

"How much benefit did our Zeng family bring to the government back then? It was just because the young master had received some kickbacks in the past few years, that he resorted to such indecent tricks to murder his life! Don't look at his high-sounding appearance. You guys are the real snakes and scorpions!"

While speaking, Zeng Shunxing's eyes seemed to have flashes of murderous intent.

The housekeeper next to him was also taken aback by his words: "What do you mean? Could it be that you want to attack the government?"

"Since he, Lu Jiulian, can kill the young master unknowingly, then I can also do a little trick to kill this guy!"

Zeng Shunxing immediately returned to the main hall and summoned his subordinates to discuss a plan to deal with Lu Jiulian.

But Wang Long and others who were in the government were unaware of the upcoming danger.

"President, that guy Zeng Shunxing clearly has bad intentions towards us, why do you let him go so casually!"

Both Song Yuyuan and Duan Yunbao looked at Wang Long with puzzled faces, and really didn't understand what he was thinking.

But there was a meaningful smile on the latter's face:

"Do you think that Lu Jiulian will really obey my order and destroy the entire Zeng family in one fell swoop?"

Hearing what he said, the two couldn't help but look at each other, as if they understood something.

Although Lu Jiulian had the upper hand in the situation just now, after all, the Zeng family has great influence in Haijin. If the government really suppressed and killed him without warning, it would definitely cause an uproar in Haijin and even the entire Dragon Kingdom!
At that time, not only will the black hat on Lu Jiulian's head be hard to protect, but even all the officials will be implicated!
As Wang Long said before, Lu Jiulian is a smart person, so naturally he would not do such a thing that is not worth the loss.

"So, the reason why Lu Jiulian sent someone to come to the door was just to rescue us?"

"Of course! If he really made up his mind to deal with the Zeng family, he would have had a chance to do it long ago. Why bother?"

While speaking, a female secretary came to Wang Long: "Mr. Wang, I've been waiting for a long time. Our City Lord Lu invites you to come to his office for a gathering!"

"Okay, got it."

Wang Long agreed, and then followed Duan Yunbao and Song Yuyuan to the city lord's office.

"City Master Lu, this time you helped me, Mr. Wang again!"

"Mr. Wang was joking, but I actually have something to ask you guys this time!"

After speaking, Lu Jiulian placed a photo in front of the desk.
