Chapter 1278 - 1278: A Knowing Smile

In the not-too-spacious room, Tie Niu Bai looked at "Zhixiang Du" who hadn't responded for a long time, his face showing impatience.

He opened his mouth, wanting to curse a few words, but was stopped by Huanyu Bai's gaze.

To Huanyu Bai, this was a normal occurrence. If Zhixiang Du agreed without hesitation, that would actually be abnormal.

Zhixiang Du was a habitual gambler, useless as mud, but after all, he hadn't really severed ties with the Du Family.

And recognizing him as a foster father would be publicly slapping the Du Family's face, and it also meant sealing off this escape route.

Blocking one's own escape route, no matter who it is, would not be decisive!

At this moment, sweat was already forming on the forehead behind the old Ha mask.

He didn't know if the Boss heard these words, and even less dared to agree hastily, fearing an autumn reckoning that might cost him his old life.

However, faced with the intimidating gazes of Huanyu Bai and Tie Niu Bai, he couldn't drag it out too long.

After a moment of hesitation, old Ha could only bow his head and say, "Uncle Bai, this matter is significant, can I have two days to consider?"

"Bang!"

Tie Niu Bai slapped the table and said, "Zhixiang Du, do you really think you're some big shot?

Even your dad, Qingyun Du, hasn't supported you the way the Bai Family does, letting you eat, drink, play, right?

Let me give you some advice, if you're given face, you'd better take it, otherwise..."

At this point, Tie Niu Bai stopped speaking, pulled out a phone from his pocket, showed the screen to old Ha, and laughed, "These photos and videos are very precious.

Your cozy little scenes qualify as quite dashing.

Why not let me publish them, let everyone witness how enviable and enviable Zhixiang Du's lifestyle is?"

"No! There's no need!" Old Ha hurriedly said, inwardly feeling indignant on behalf of his Boss and Boss's wife.

Tie Niu Bai's mouth curled up, his smile was undisguisedly playful, "Since you say there's no need, I'm not necessarily going to send them out.

Just recognizing my dad as your foster father, you know what to do, right?"

Old Ha immediately furrowed his brow, knowing he was already being pushed to the edge of the cliff, with no way to retreat.

Should he keep acting and agree?

Or should he resolutely refuse to protect the Boss's reputation?

For old Ha, this wasn't really a matter that needed much thought.

Right then, he took a deep breath, as if he'd already made a decision.

And Huanyu Bai and Tie Niu Bai, the father-son duo, also showed expectant looks.

But at that moment, Xiao Feng's voice appeared in old Ha's ear, "Don't consider anything else. Just choose according to your understanding of Zhixiang Du's character."

Old Ha immediately froze, feeling more confident.

Since the Boss knew about this, then it's much easier.

"I agree!"

"Hahaha, good, good!" Huanyu Bai said happily, "Zhixiang, in the next few days, I'll post something and invite some prominent figures to witness.

Three days later, I'll announce publicly that you will change your name to Zhixiang Bai from now on.

This way, you won't be criticized anymore at the Bai Family manor."

As an old actor, old Ha quickly adapted to the yet-to-be-public new identity and bowed his head, agreeing, "Yes, godfather!"

"Heh, you've changed your tone quite quickly." Tie Niu Bai said mockingly.

Huanyu Bai furrowed his brows slightly, pretending to be displeased and said, "Tie Niu, you should now call Zhixiang your brother, don't be disrespectful."

"Dad's lesson is right." Tie Niu Bai turned his gaze to Zhixiang Bai with a smile on his face, "Brother Zhixiang."

Old Ha waved his hand repeatedly, showing a look of fear.

Huanyu Bai took out a bank card from his pocket, saying, "This card contains one million, consider it your fee for changing your tone. I hope you can work sincerely with Tie Niu in the future to create the Bai Family's glory together!"

Old Ha's eyes lit up appropriately, and he took the card with a beaming smile, bowing, "Thank you, godfather!"

"Alright, you can go rest. You don't need to worry about the next steps. When I need you, I'll call you over."

"Okay, godfather!"

After sending Zhixiang Du away, only Huanyu Bai and Tie Niu Bai were left in the room.

After a moment of silence, Tie Niu Bai suddenly said happily, "One million can make him so happy. This guy is just worth one million."

"Zhixiang Du had seen and experienced the world when he was young, but unfortunately, he later got addicted to gambling, and the whole person was ruined." Huanyu Bai said with some sigh.

After speaking, he said sternly, "Tie Niu, you must remember, gambling and drugs, you must never touch these two things, otherwise, it's like sinking into a swamp, you'll only get deeper."

"Yes!" Tie Niu Bai agreed solemnly.

Huanyu Bai picked up his teacup, took a sip, and said with a hearty laugh, "Xiao Feng's father-in-law, recognizes me as his godfather, haha, interesting, interesting!"

...

In the room at Jinyue Garden, Xue Nuofu.

Lone Wolf took a deep breath, turned around, and walked towards the door, full of murderous aura.

"Stop!" Xiao Feng shouted to stop him.

He didn't need to ask to know what Lone Wolf was going to do.

And stopping Lone Wolf was not because of safety concerns.

Given Lone Wolf's skills, killing and escaping seven times at the Bai Family wasn't too difficult.

But as for this matter, at this current point in time, a violent solution wasn't the best approach.

"Big brother, that old bastard has a heart black as coal, I really want to gut him and feed that black heart to dogs!"

Xiao Feng chuckled lightly, "Don't worry, there'll be plenty of opportunities to fight later, but now's not the time."

Having said that, he tapped Lone Wolf's shoulder and walked downstairs.

After going downstairs and greeting everyone, Xiao Feng returned to his villa.

He just reached the door when he bumped into Qingyue Du getting out of the car.

Seeing Xiao Feng, Qingyue Du was slightly startled, "You went out?"

"Yes, I sat with old Xue for a while."

Qingyue Du nodded gently, saying, "I've said what I needed to say to those people, as for how many will listen..."

"It doesn't matter!" Xiao Feng continued, "We should just do our thing, the rest is up to their luck."

From one angle, the people attending the banquet tonight were like they had fallen into a river.

There were piranhas in the river, and now they were struggling to exhaustion, about to drown.

While Xiao Feng and Qingyue Du stood on the bridge, throwing countless ropes down, it was up to the people in the river to choose to grab hold or give up.

"By the way, how's old Ha doing at the Bai Family?" Qingyue Du asked casually.

Xiao Feng smiled bitterly, "You're asking at the right time, I was just about to tell you, Huanyu Bai holds a grudge because I tricked him out of fifty million earlier, and he's come up with a damaging move to get back at us."

"A damaging move?" Qingyue Du furrowed her brows, pondered for a moment, and asked, "Is it through my dad?"

Xiao Feng nodded, explaining, "That old thing is making your dad recognize him as a foster father, using this method to disgust us.

According to Huanyu Bai, in the next few days, he'll send invitations to prominent people in Jiangcheng, and hold a formal ceremony in three days."

"If he acts unjustly, then don't blame us for being unrighteous!" Qingyue Du said coldly.

Xiao Feng exchanged a glance with her, both showing a cooperative smile, clearly having thought of the same thing.
