Chapter: 2971
As soon as Zhong Tianyu’s video was released, it quickly became a hot topic online. Many netizens thought he had done something foolish again, similar to when he hired a group for an anti-Japanese war movie. But this time, it was even stranger. The Zhong family took this situation seriously and urgently tried to reach Zhong Tianyu. However, they soon discovered that he and his companions were hard to contact, which made them realize he might be in trouble.
The Zhong family quickly sprang into action, reaching out to their connections and asking people in Jinling City for any information about Zhong Tianyu’s whereabouts. Meanwhile, Zhong Tianyu had been taken straight to Buckingham Palace by some men in a bus. He had initially wanted to book the presidential suite to get closer to Gu Qiuyi, but instead, he felt like a prisoner being dragged away.
Feeling angry and scared, Zhong Tianyu didn’t have time to think before he was handed over to Chen Zekai’s men and brought directly to Chen Zekai’s office. Inside the office, Charlie Wade, Hong Wu, and Chen Zekai were sitting together, enjoying some tea.
When the door opened, Zhong Tianyu was brought in with a collar on, looking flustered. As he entered, he quickly scanned the room, realizing he was seeing Charlie Wade and the others for the first time. Not knowing who the spokesperson of the Ye family was, he hesitantly asked, “Could you tell me who Manager Chen from Buckingham Palace is?”
Chen Zekai replied calmly, “I am.”
Zhong Tianyu quickly asked, “Manager Chen, is there some misunderstanding about what happened today?”
“Misunderstanding?” Chen Zekai scoffed. “I don’t think so. Weren’t you acting arrogant on the phone? That’s why I had to invite you here to talk in person.”
Zhong Tianyu gathered his courage and said, “Manager Chen, I know you’re from the Ye family. The Zhong family has always had a good relationship with your family, especially your friend Ye Changmin and my father. I believe today’s issue can’t reflect Ye family’s views. If you’re just using the Ye family’s influence to settle a personal score with me, you should think carefully. If things go wrong, can you really handle it?”
Chen Zekai chuckled at this. “You mentioned our eldest lady from the Ye family. Of course, I can’t cover that up.”
Zhong Tianyu felt a surge of confidence and replied coldly, “If you can’t cover it, let me go now. Otherwise, you’ll regret it.”
Chen Zekai smiled and said, “Don’t rush me. I may not be able to handle it, but the person next to me definitely can.”
He pointed to Charlie Wade beside him and said to Zhong Tianyu, “If you’re not convinced, you can talk to him.”
Zhong Tianyu looked at Charlie Wade, trying to place his face in his memory. But no matter how hard he thought, he couldn’t remember anything about him. This left him puzzled.
“Why don’t I remember this guy if he’s so great? I know the young men from the Ye, Su, and Gu families. I even recognize some of the more powerful families, but this kid is a mystery. Isn’t he supposed to be important?”
With this thought in mind, he asked, “Hey, do we have a problem between us?”
Charlie Wade smiled slightly and replied, “No problem at all. I just noticed that you seemed upset.”
“Wow!” Zhong Tianyu reacted immediately to Charlie’s voice. He confronted the stranger on the phone, exclaiming angrily, “So it’s you! Who do you think you are? What kind of background do you have to go against me? I swear, the first thing I’ll do when I leave here is to take you down!”
Charlie Wade replied calmly, “Are you curious about my background? My name is Charlie Wade. Have you heard of me?”
“Charlie Wade?!” Zhong Tianyu’s mind raced. “Wait, this guy’s last name is Ye. Does that mean he’s from the Ye family?!”
But after thinking it over and recalling the younger members of the Ye family, he realized there was no one named Charlie Wade. With a cautious look, he said, “I know the younger members of the Ye family, but I’ve never seen you before. Are you a relative of theirs?”
