Under One Person: I, Jiaqian Jushi, work from nine to five.

"Look at this, the food hasn't even been served yet, and it's already turned into this..."

Hearing Zhao Fangxu's words, the elder of the Natural Sect nodded and then said:

"Mr. Zhao is right... I'll go and urge them to prepare the dishes."

"No, how could I trouble you, sir? Let Xiao Zhou go..." Zhao Fangxu said.

...

After a moment.

When Zhou Fengliu returned after urging the dishes to be cooked, Huang Ning had already shakily gotten up from the ground.

Clearly, Zhou Fengliu knew his limits.

The intensity of the confrontation was precisely controlled; the confrontation was designed to leave the opponent bewildered but not mentally taxing.

Looking at the human-shaped imprint on the wall, Huang Ning was a little confused as to how his burly frame had managed to fly up there.

He had just turned his head when he saw Zhou Fengliu walk in from outside the door.

When he saw Zhou Fengliu looking over, he lowered his head even further.

At his age, to be subjected to such a severe ordeal undoubtedly caused immense damage to his fragile psyche.

Chapter 329 Zhou Fengliu: I still prefer your unruly attitude from just now!

Huang Ning seemed very busy in order to avoid Zhou Fengliu's gaze.

He first looked at the ceiling in a panic, and then at the ground.

Noticing the broken pieces of the teacup he had just thrown on the ground, he squatted down again and began picking up the pieces.

Seemingly noticing Huang Ning's actions, Zhao Fangxu adjusted his glasses and said:

"Xiao Huang, why are you picking up that teacup? You just got injured, be careful not to cut your hand again. Sit down... someone will clean it up in a bit."

Check it out.

This is what leadership is all about.

Killing people is also heartbreaking.

Hearing Zhao Fangxu's words, Huang Ning, who had been reprimanded, became extremely obedient. He shook his head and then said that it would be fine for him to pick up the broken pieces.

Huang Ning, who was squatting on the ground, could never have imagined it.

We agreed to have dinner with Zhao Fangxu, and the four of us were to play the good cop and the bad cop, but why is he the only one doing all the work... while the other three haven't offered any support?

After being forced into a fight by Zhou Fengliu, Huang Ning's IQ seemed to have soared.

He discovered that some of his teammates were slackers.

He was the only one leading the team, but in the end, the opposing team's top carry taught them a lesson.

I can't carry it, I really can't carry it.

Let whoever wants to carry me take me... With teammates like this, even the most powerful experts wouldn't be able to help!

...

Just as Huang Ning was picking up the broken pieces, one exquisite dish after another was served.

When the waiter saw the human-shaped mark on the wall, he was taken aback.

They seemed equally puzzled as to how anyone could crash into that height.

Seeing that the dishes were almost all served, Zhao Fangxu looked at Huang Ning, who had been beaten up, and slowly said:

"Xiao Huang, the dishes are almost all served, come back and sit down."

Upon hearing this, Huang Ning did not immediately sit down. He glanced at Zhou Fengliu subconsciously before replying:

"Mr. Zhao, I made a mistake, I'll just stand there..."

Having been thoroughly outmaneuvered, Huang Ning, whose intelligence had soared, also began to back down. He stopped playing the good cop and obediently cowered.

In terms of arrogance, he couldn't compare to Zhou Fengliu.

Upon hearing Huang Ning's words, Zhou Fengliu glanced over at him.

how to say?

He still preferred Huang Ning's unruly demeanor from earlier...

If you're capable, then stand firm. Giving up halfway makes it seem like he's bullying an honest person.

"Xiao Huang, it's normal for young people to make mistakes. Don't be afraid to speak up. Come on, listen to me... just sit down."

Zhao Fangxu spoke very calmly.

Huang Ning pondered for a moment, then sat down in the chair with a hint of probing.

Seeing Huang Ning sit down, Zhao Fangxu nodded in satisfaction, then looked at the other three members of the Truth-Seeking Society and began his reassuring words:

"Actually, I understand how you all feel. The company remembers the contributions of the Truth Seeking Society, and you have all contributed a lot to the stability of the community, which I am well aware of..."

Zhao Fangxu paused for a moment and then continued:

"Instead of dwelling on the past, I think you should exert more effort to let more people see you and set a good example for others in the industry..."

“People like Guan Shihua, Lü Ci, Lu Jin, and other seniors are indeed highly respected, but we cannot ignore the power of young people.”

"Over the years, Feng, the leader of the Tianxia Hui, has stepped forward and done a lot of good things, which I think is quite commendable..."

Faced with Zhao Fangxu's reassuring remarks, the four members of the Truth Seeking Society present did not dare to say a word and could only nod in agreement.

After that intense struggle, they dared not put any more pressure on Zhao Fangxu.

Zhou Fengliu, who was standing to the side, knew after hearing Zhao Fangxu's words that the cleanup work for the day was done.

After the slap, it's time to give a sweet treat.

The so-called combination of kindness and power.

His power was unleashed.

Zhao Fangxu's small favors should also be reciprocated.

...

as predicted.

As Zhou Fengliu had expected, Zhao Fangxu began to make empty promises to the four members of the Seeking Truth Society.

"Wang Ai, one of the Ten Elders, lost his family and home because of the lawless Quanxing gang. No one else in the Wang family is suitable to take his place..."

"Now is the time for newcomers to step forward. I personally have high hopes for Xiao Huang. He has ideas, dares to speak out, and dares to act... That's great."

Zhao Fangxu pulled Huang Ning out, and seeing him looking at the honest-looking Xiao Huang, he continued:

"Xiao Huang, as long as you stand up and strive to maintain the stability and unity of the community, I, Zhao Fangxu, support you..."

Upon hearing this, the four members of the Seeking Truth Society were taken aback, then realized that this was compensation offered by Zhao Fangxu.

If Huang Ning can be included in the Ten Elders due to the emergence of Xu Xin from the Tang Clan and that slap just now, then the Seeking Truth Society will have made a huge profit.

"If that's what you say, Mr. Zhao, then I, Huang Ning, will certainly do my best... I was too rash just now, and I apologize to Manager Zhou!"

With Zhao Fangxu's promise, Huang Ning's facial pain lessened considerably, and he took this opportunity to try and mend his relationship with Zhou Fengliu.

Hearing Huang Ning's words, Zhou Fengliu pointed to the teacup on the table, then to the wall with the human-shaped mark not far away, and began to speak:

"You should apologize to the restaurant..."

This time, Zhou Fengliu didn't give Huang Ning a way out...

Huang Ning failed to seize the opportunity given to him before.

There's no need to give it this time.

His words left Huang Ning speechless.

One act of courage led to a lifetime of introversion...

Huang Ning just gave an awkward smile, then scratched his head and said, "Manager Zhou is right, I'll definitely compensate for this..."

...

After this "appeasement" dinner, the four members of the Seeking Truth Society stood outside the restaurant and watched Zhou Fengliu and Zhao Fangxu get into the car and drive away.

"This week, Fengliu is truly impressive. No wonder the sects in South China are so afraid of him... After meeting him today, I can confirm that his reputation is well-deserved."

"A middle-aged man with a strong sense of style sighed."

"Zhao Fangxu brought him here today to give us a warning... Xiao Ning was too reckless. If Zhao Fangxu really makes trouble for us because of this, we'll be in deep trouble."

"Don't say that. Xiao Ning actually benefited from this misfortune. If it weren't for that slap, Zhao Fangxu probably wouldn't have given in..."

The old man from the Natural Gate took over the conversation, and seeing that he was looking at Huang Ning, he continued:

"We can put Zhang Chulan's matter aside for now. Our most important task now is to get Xiao Ning into the Ten Elders. With Zhao Fangxu's support, this matter is almost certain to succeed."

“Once Xiao Ning becomes one of the Ten Elders, our Seeking Truth Society will have a say in major events in the industry. Because of this power, various resources will be tilted towards us.”

"Those big portals will no longer dare to underestimate us."
