Chapter 1644: You Dare Tell Me What to Do?
"Haohao, oh Haohao! Don’t scare Grandpa, you’re not joking, right?"
Lu Genshuo asked bitterly.
Yet, as soon as the words left his mouth, even he felt childish. Lu Hao was already like this; could it be a joke?!
"Grandpa, quickly... quickly give me the phone. I need to call Brother Zhe and notify people from the other five families. I need to give an account for the death of my brothers..."
Lu Hao reached out, tearlessly, to Lu Genshuo.
Lu Genshuo deeply felt the seriousness of the matter and promptly took out his phone, handing it to his grandson.
Then, in front of the family’s high-ranking members, Lu Hao dialed each of the other families, informing them of the disastrous failure in Jiangdong.
Before long, those families wandering in the second and third tiers of Capital City were shocked and furious upon hearing the news!
Among them, the Yan Family was the most furious!
Their key talent, Yan Yucheng, ranked first among the initial six and was most likely to be recommended by Duanmu Zhe for further advancement.
But now, Yan Yucheng was dead?!
"Lu Hao, let me ask you again, are you sure our Cheng’er is really dead? And, that all of your people have been completely wiped out?!"
Yan Family Patriarch Yan Shuangying asked viciously!
"Grandpa Yan, do you think I would lie about something like this? Your Yan Family didn’t contribute at all this time. In the end, Yan Yucheng almost betrayed us. I called you out of loyalty for old times’ sake..." Lu Hao said bitterly.
He truly felt disappointed in Yan Yucheng. Recalling Yan Yucheng’s last kneeling act was embarrassing.
But, after all, they had been brothers for so many years; it was only right to inform his family of his death.
"That’s nonsense! My grandson would never do that!!!"
Yan Shuangying raged: "Aren’t you the ones from the five useless families who attacked together with so many people yet couldn’t take down that little bastard, and dare to blame this on my Yan Family? Unbelievable!"
Lu Hao was speechless; was this the case of the evil person complaining first?!
He was reluctant to say more to Yan Shuangying and directly hung up the phone.
Afterward, he dialed Duanmu Zhe’s phone.
At that moment, Duanmu Zhe was still sitting in his courtyard house, leisurely eating fruit.
Beside him was an exceptionally beautiful girl with fair skin, peeling grapes for him one by one with her delicate fingers.
Each time she finished peeling one, she would put the grape in her mouth and then kiss Duanmu Zhe, transferring the grape to him — a double enjoyment without question.
Though she seemed delicate and clingy, she had recently become a popular rising star in the country, only recently courted by Duanmu Zhe.
Coldly indifferent at award ceremonies, her goddess persona turned kitten-like in Duanmu Zhe’s presence.
Now, as the phone rang, she sucked her fingers and picked up the phone, gently placing it by Duanmu Zhe’s ear, saying softly, "Young Master Zhe, the phone."
"Mm."
Duanmu Zhe comfortably reclined on his lounger, crossing his legs.
He wasn’t worried at all, having already guessed it must be Yan Yucheng and Lu Hao calling him.
For so long, he had been waiting for news from Jiangdong, and finally, those people brought him some good news.
"Hello, Lu Hao?"
"Brother Zhe, it’s me! I’m here to deliver extremely severe bad news: our brothers have all been wiped out..."
"Phew!!!"
Upon hearing this, Duanmu Zhe spat out the mashed grapes and seeds, spraying them all over the face of the little pop star, leaving her face mottled!
"What did you say?!"
Duanmu Zhe shot up from his seat as if resurrected, his eyes wide as saucers!
"Brother Zhe, it’s true, except for me, our people from the Six Families and the other five brothers are all gone! That Jiang Feng is truly inhuman, I understand now how the Lin Family got destroyed and how the Xiang Family got scared to death by him. Please think of a solution; if not you or Duanmu Family personally intervene, perhaps report it to Boss Ying..." Lu Hao said tearlessly.
"Bullshit!!!"
Duanmu Zhe roared angrily, his tone of madness was identical to that of Yan Shuangying earlier: "You bunch of useless! Six Families joined hands, yet you can’t even take down one scoundrel?! Where have the Six Families been investing all these years? Imbeciles!!!"
Lu Hao felt even more frustrated hearing this; he knew if he informed Duanmu Zhe of the defeat, he would provoke a scolding.
But the fact was indeed so, without exaggeration!
If one hadn’t seen with their own eyes, it would be difficult for a normal person to imagine how heavenly-defying and terrifying Jiang Feng was — a groundbreaking outsider!
"Brother Zhe, anyway, I’ve already told you—believe it or not! My Lu Family will be cautious with the Jiangs from now on. Unless absolutely necessary, we dare not provoke him, and I request you don’t send me anymore. Remember my advice, don’t underestimate him, I’m hanging up!"
With that, Lu Hao hung up the phone trembling.
"Damn it! A bunch of good-for-nothing failures!"
Duanmu Zhe slammed the phone onto the table and cursed angrily.
"Brother Zhe, what happened?" Xiao Hua asked, startlingly pale as she had just wiped clean her fair face with a tissue.
In her understanding, she thought each of these wealthy young men from Capital City was unapproachable, thus unable to comprehend what could make Duanmu Zhe so furious.
"Shut up! What are you anyway, just a vase, daring to inquire about my affairs?" Duanmu Zhe roared!
Just then, his phone rang again, he picked it up, angry beyond belief as he answered: "Lu Hao, you useless thing, what more do you have to say?!"
"Brother Zhe, I almost forgot to tell you. Your Duanmu Family now has no choice but to personally intervene. Jiang Feng explicitly stated his next target is you; he wants to twist your head off..."
Lu Hao recalled Ye Feng’s warning, thus making this call once more, feeling uneasy: "Also Boss Ying! That Jiang, not only knows our details well, but seems familiar with Boss Ying as well... saying he was an old acquaintance of Boss Ying, it’s best you report this to Boss Ying..."
"Son of a bitch, do you dare teach me how to do things?"
Duanmu Zhe fumed with smoke: "Lu Hao, I tell you clearly, your Lu Family’s finished. Don’t expect me to assist you anymore! When Boss ascends, don’t expect preferential treatment either, go to hell!!!"
After shouting angrily, Duanmu Zhe shattered the phone, stomping it several times!
Meanwhile, Lu Hao was left speechless, fully understanding the consequences of ignoring good advice...
Truly, Duanmu Zhe was seeking his own downfall!
