Hearing Zhao Yin's words, Xiao Zheng stood up slowly without any hesitation.
He was here for Qiu Sheng.
No matter how powerful Zhao Yin was or how awe-inspiring he was. Deep down, Xiao Zheng was not afraid of him.
Nothing was more important than death in life.
It was not easy for a man who was not afraid of death to be afraid of other things.
Xiao Zheng stood up and walked towards Zhao Yin step by step.
The long table was very long. But Xiao Zheng's steps were also very big. Soon, he was in front of Zhao Yin. He calmly gazed at Zhao Yin with a condescending attitude.
"I'm here." Xiao Zheng opened his thin lips slightly, looking very determined.
Even though Zhao Yin was sitting.
Even though he needed to look up at Xiao Zheng.
However, the aura on his body and the imposing expression on his face completely suppressed Xiao Zheng.
Yes.
In terms of the combined strength of these two men, Xiao Zheng might not be able to surpass Zhao Yin in any aspect.
Zhao Yin nodded, put down his knife and fork, and said with narrowed eyes, "Very good." "I want to ask you, why are you here for Qiu Sheng?"
"I'm worried about her," Xiao Zheng answered honestly.
"She is at home. What is there to worry about?" Zhao Yin asked.
"She has a father who does not make her feel safe in her own home," Xiao Zheng said straightforwardly. "So I'm worried."
"So you think she is not safe with me?" Zhao Yin pursed his lips and asked.
"You can understand it that way." Xiao Zheng nodded.
"Then what can you do for her?" Zhao Yin was not angry. Instead, he said leisurely. "Have a nice dinner with her, or go shopping at the best shopping mall in London? Or can you take her away and abandon the family you've already built? "
Zhao Yin's last sentence stumped Xiao Zheng.
Abandon the family?
That meant Xiao Zheng had to abandon his wife and children.
That was impossible.
This was also the only thing that Xiao Zheng found difficult to accomplish.
His starting point wasn't clear, and he didn't have a solid enough reason.
He could only visit Qiu Shou as a friend.
As for friends, they should know their limits and know when to advance or retreat. It was impossible for him to meddle in the private affairs of the Autumn Harvest or even the family affairs.
"Looks like you haven't made up your mind yet." Zhao Yin stood up. His burly and majestic figure, his dignified and resolute face, as well as the unparalleled overbearing aura that lingered around his body, all caused Xiao Zheng to feel rather uncomfortable.
"Come with me."
Zhao Yin turned around and walked towards the staircase.
When Xiao Zheng heard this, he blindly followed behind.
From the outside, the castle looked ridiculously huge. As he walked through the interior of the ancient castle, Xiao Zheng deeply felt the meaning of the word 'magnificent'.
Old Lin's mansion, which could be called a manor, was already shocking enough. However, compared to the Zhao Clan's ancient castle, it was much smaller.
The most special thing was that the gloomy atmosphere in the ancient castle really made people feel uncomfortable.
"Why did you choose this place to be the Zhao Clan?" Xiao Zheng's mood was still relatively calm, so he asked such a question that was not related to the topic.
"Is there a problem?" Zhao Yin walked slowly in front, his back was very straight.
"This place is not suitable for normal people to live at all," Xiao Zheng shook his head and said with a serious expression.
When Zhao Yin heard this, his footsteps suddenly came to a halt. Then, he continued to walk forward, but his voice became a little erratic. "The Zhao Clan is not normal."
Hearing this, Xiao Zheng's heart sank slightly.
Yes.
Was the Zhao Clan normal?
Of course not!
If they were normal, why would they hide in Moscow and come to live in Europe?
Why didn't they go back to Hua Xia? Why didn't they go back to their hometown?
Because in their hometown, the Zhao Clan had too many enemies!
And those enemies, every single one of them was powerful and terrifying!
Before they were strong enough, the Zhao Clan would not easily show up. This was the reason why Chang Yishan left his hometown.
If a rising star was too outstanding, it was inevitable that he would be targeted by people with ulterior motives.
Therefore, he had to first secretly strengthen himself until no one could threaten him. Only then could he stand out openly and do whatever he wanted to do.
Half a century had passed.
The Zhao Clan had waited for half a century!
The East had Lin Laoyao, and the West had Zhao Yin!
Now, the power they had around the world was enough to make any force, even a country, afraid!
This was also the reason why the high-rise buildings of Hua Xia turned a blind eye!
Weak countries had no diplomacy. If the Zhao Clan did not have enough bargaining chips, would the higher-ups allow them to run amok?
At the end of the day, it was just a negotiation with a price!
"There are some things that I have said to many people, including the autumn harvest." Xiao Zheng walked slowly, but the expression on his face was very subtle. "But now, I still want to talk to you."
Zhao Yin said calmly, "Say it."
"Do you want this hatred to continue? Until your next generation, the generation after that, will also live in hatred and revenge? "Xiao Zheng said slowly. "Or do you want to provide a good living environment for them?"
In the face of Zhao Yin's tactful persuasion, Zhao Yin's pace suddenly stopped. He turned around and stared coldly at Xiao Zheng. "When you don't understand the whole story, any act of sharing a common enemy or being a peacemaker is stupid, immoral, and even cruel."
"Let me explain it in the simplest terms. It's easy for you to say that. "Zhao Yin turned around and continued to walk.
Xiao Zheng was a little stunned by his words.
Indeed. Xiao Zheng considered the whole thing from the perspective of a wealthy family in Hua Xia. He had never considered for the Zhao Family whether their family should be exterminated or not. Or whether Zhao Zhangfeng deserved to die.
Because of his relationship with Lord Ye, he took it for granted that Zhao Zhangfeng made a mistake and should not live.
From another point of view, Xiao Zheng's way of thinking was indeed dangerous, and even more so, selfish.
He was a classic case of helping his relatives but not reason!
With such thinking, what right did he have to persuade the Zhao Clan, or even Zhao Zhangfeng, the head of the clan?
Creak.
The sound of the giant door opening echoed in the spacious castle. It seemed to knock on people's hearts again and again. Seeing the giant door being pushed open by Zhao Yin with one hand, the layout inside quickly jumped into Xiao Zheng's eyes.
It was a cold corridor. It was dozens of meters long.
The hanging lights on the wall were not bright, emitting a dark green matte light. It was so terrifying that he felt as if he had come to hell.
"The person you want to see is in the innermost room." Zhao Yin stood where he was with his arms behind his back. He had no intention of leading the way.
Xiao Zheng was slightly stunned. He nodded politely at Zhao Yin and then walked calmly to the corridor.
