Married to My Ex-Fiancé's Cousin-Chapter 728: Qi Cheng Gets Attacked_1
Compared to these grudges, what mattered more to Zhou Yixiu was his big business. This meeting was extremely important to him, and he couldn’t afford to think about past events.
As for Qi Cheng hitting him, there was nothing he could do about it since the old man from the Qi Family Clan had been alive for so many years and still wasn’t dead.
Even if he was beaten to within an inch of his life, he had to give the old man some face and didn’t dare go too far against Qi Cheng.
He thought back to Qi Cheng’s demeanor that day and laughed. If he hadn’t been rescued, Qi Cheng might really have beaten him to death. Although Qi Cheng usually seemed gentle and tame, when he got angry, he was like a fierce wolf. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖
It was clear that Ji Yunhuan truly was the apple of his eye.
When they arrived at the conference hall entrance, Secretary Wu got out of the car first and opened the door. Zhou Yixiu stepped out and walked towards the venue.
All the VIPs were there, so the security measures inside were excellent. There was no need for bodyguards to accompany them.
When Zhou Yixiu entered the venue, he was only accompanied by two secretaries. As he approached the third main entrance, he saw Qi Cheng stationed there. He had pulled some strings, so he also brought people inside.
Seeing this scene, Zhou Yixiu smirked arrogantly and walked straight towards Qi Cheng. "Mr. Qi Sr., long time no see."
"Not that long," Qi Cheng replied coldly, glaring at Zhou Yixiu. Zhou Yixiu was still injured from their last encounter, and maybe not fully recovered. Yet, seeing him standing there perfectly fine made Qi Cheng furious.
People like him should stay down and never get back up.
Zhou Yixiu could feel the anger in Qi Cheng’s tone. He smiled and said, "Mr. Qi Sr., you look like you’re still mad about what happened before."
Even now, Zhou Yixiu maintained a calm and collected demeanor.
Seeing his attitude, the fire in Qi Cheng’s heart burned even hotter.
He took a step closer to Zhou Yixiu. "You think I’ll just let you off because you ran away that day?"
Back in City A, he had warned Zhou Yixiu. But Zhou Yixiu didn’t take his words seriously.
Secretary Wu stepped in front of Zhou Yixiu as Qi Cheng approached. Normally, Zhou Yixiu’s skills were formidable enough that there were few he had to worry about. But now he was injured, and even an iron body couldn’t withstand it.
Zhou Yixiu calmly said to Secretary Wu, "Secretary Wu, step aside."
"But..."
"Mr. Qi Sr. is a civilized person. He won’t get physical. Don’t worry." Zhou Yixiu reached out, gently moving Secretary Wu aside. No sooner had Secretary Wu stepped away when Qi Cheng’s fist landed on Zhou Yixiu’s face.
Secretary Wu watched in shock. "Mr. Zhou!"
Zhou Yixiu staggered back several steps before finding his footing. He rubbed his face, looking at Qi Cheng with an unwavering smile. "Mr. Qi Sr., do you even know what you’re doing?"
"What do you think I’m doing?" Qi Cheng retorted.
The smile on Zhou Yixiu’s face was blinding. He looked at Qi Cheng but didn’t rush to speak.
Grandfather entered the hall with a group, just in time to see Qi Cheng grab Zhou Yixiu by the collar. Were it not illegal, he would have killed Zhou Yixiu right there.
Elder Brother, who was with Grandfather, saw this and quickly walked towards Qi Cheng.
In such an important setting with so many eyes watching, Qi Cheng’s behavior was undoubtedly irrational.
Though hitting Zhou Yixiu might provide some relief, it would tarnish the reputation of the entire Qi Family.
"Qi Cheng," Elder Brother hurried over, grabbing Qi Cheng’s hand. "What do you think you’re doing?"
Qi Cheng glanced at Elder Brother. "Elder Brother, don’t stop me. This is between him and me."
"Coming here to find him makes it more than just his business." The Qi Family was in charge of security here. Qi Cheng’s actions would bring trouble to those in charge.
"If not here, who knows where he’ll run off to next time?" Zhou Yixiu was slippery like a fish, hard to catch. His whereabouts were always a mystery.
Elder Brother could sense the intense anger in Qi Cheng. Normally a calm person, Qi Cheng’s rage proved he was truly furious.
Zhou Yixiu must have provoked Qi Cheng again.
Elder Brother urged, "Qi Cheng, can we discuss this another day?"
With so many witnesses here today, and Zhou Yixiu not being just anyone, even if Qi Cheng hit him, no one would care who was at fault. They would just blame Qi Cheng.
"There is no other day!" Qi Cheng grabbed Zhou Yixiu, about to strike, when Elder Brother ordered the bodyguards, "Haven’t you heard? Restrain the Young Master!"
The bodyguards, following Elder Brother’s orders, quickly stepped in to hold back Qi Cheng. Zhou Yixiu still smiled smugly and teased Elder Brother, "Your Qi Cheng is really quite willful."
These words enraged Qi Cheng even more, making him want to hit Zhou Yixiu again. Elder Brother had Qi Cheng taken away and glanced at Zhou Yixiu.
Elder Brother knew Zhou Yixiu was no good. His previous kidnapping of Ruirui and Ji Yunhuan had already enraged Qi Cheng. If it weren’t for Elder Brother’s intercession, Qi Cheng wouldn’t have let Zhou Yixiu go so easily in City A.
Who knew what Zhou Yixiu had done this time?
But in such a setting, it was inconvenient to pursue the matter further.
Qi Cheng was brought before Grandfather. "Grandfather," he greeted.
Grandfather’s face was calm, but he raised his hand and slapped Qi Cheng. "You’ve really grown some nerve."
Those beside Grandfather quickly supported him. "Sir, Qi Cheng is still young and bound to make mistakes."
"Won’t learn without a beating." Even after being told to stop, Qi Cheng had persisted. Grandfather was nearly furious with him. "Send him home. I don’t want to see him embarrass us again!"
Elder Brother had Qi Cheng sent back to the Qi Residence and notified Ji Yunhuan at the hotel.
When Ji Yunhuan brought the child to the Qi Residence, Qi Cheng was sitting on the sofa. Song Bo was tending to him, offering him food, and said, "The old man means well. Even if Young Master Sun is angry, he shouldn’t have hit Mr. Zhou in such a place, don’t you think?"
Qi Cheng snorted disdainfully. If he hadn’t shown Zhou Yixiu too much courtesy before, would Zhou Yixiu dare be so arrogant?
Zhou Yixiu relied on his status to act recklessly.
Song Bo had clearly been trying to reason with Qi Cheng for a long time until his mouth was dry, but to no effect.
Seeing Ji Yunhuan enter, Song Bo greeted politely, "Young Mistress Sun."
Ji Yunhuan’s gaze fell on the indifferent Qi Cheng. Even when he saw her, his expression didn’t change.
"What happened?"
