A Dragon King of terrifying power?

"Second Young Master, this is your first time visiting the Liu Family, so it's also the first time you've met me. However, my father has been constantly praising you in my ear."

After chatting with Zhou Feiyu for a few moments, Liu Tianqi turned his gaze toward Zhou Cheng.

Because he knew, as did all of Shanghai, that the one currently calling the shots in the entire Zhou Family was Zhou Cheng, not Zhou Feiyu.

The current Family Head was Zhou Yuanbo, and the eldest son was Zhou Feiyu, but the power of the Zhou Family was now completely controlled by Zhou Cheng.

In any other Family, sibling rivalry would be inevitable in such a situation, but it was different in the Zhou Family.

On the contrary, Zhou Feiyu felt that it was better for Zhou Cheng to hold power than himself!

In fact, the reason Zhou Cheng could take power was thanks to his help; it was because he had given all his shares to Zhou Cheng that he could do so.

"Is that so? Then I'm truly a bit flattered," Zhou Cheng said casually, offering some polite pleasantries.

They chatted for a few more moments.

"Eldest Young Master Zhou, Second Young Master, a lounge has been arranged inside. Please go rest first. There are still a few families who haven't arrived yet; I'll come back to have a few drinks with you later," Liu Tianqi said.

He then arranged for a receptionist to lead the way, guiding the three of them into the house.

Just as they entered, Zhou Cheng scanned the hall; many people had already arrived.

Everyone was dressed in suits and leather shoes, and their female companions were elegant and poised, exuding extreme luxury.

"Big Brother Zhou, Second Brother Zhou, Wanyu..." Qin Ming, who was inside, immediately came over to greet them upon seeing the three.

"Xiao Qin, were you waiting at the door specifically for us?" Zhou Feiyu asked, looking at Qin Ming.

"Yes, my grandfather asked me to wait for you here and then take you to the lounge," Qin Ming nodded and said.

Zhou Cheng knew that the Qin Family was doing this to invite the Zhou Family to discuss and jointly deal with the so-called Dragon King Emissary later.

"Alright, let's go. We'll go see your grandfather together," Zhou Cheng said.

Letting Qin Ming lead the way, the three of them followed.

The young masters or Family heads of other families nearby wanted to get to know Zhou Cheng and the others, but seeing them in a hurry, they suppressed the thought.

Before long, they arrived at the Qin Family's lounge.

After knocking and entering, Zhou Cheng saw the current head of the Qin Family—Old Master Qin!

He was in his eighties now, but his body was still healthy.

There were only a few strands of white hair on his head.

For the wealthy, their medical environment was much better than that of ordinary people.

Thus, even in his eighties, he didn't look too old.

Upon seeing Zhou Cheng and the other two arrive, Old Master Qin didn't put on any airs and stood up personally.

He said heartily, "Feiyu, Xiao Cheng, come and sit. There's no need for our two families to bother with those insincere formalities, right?"

Old Master Qin called the two by their names directly, clearly treating them as his own.

Zhou Cheng and Zhou Feiyu naturally weren't formal either; they went forward and sat opposite Old Master Qin.

The relationship between the two families was already good, especially with the marriage alliance between Zhou Wanyu and Qin Ming.

Although Chu Tianyi had appeared between Zhou Wanyu and Qin Ming before, that kid had already been dealt with by Zhou Cheng.

Now, Zhou Wanyu wasn't causing any more trouble.

Regarding their marriage, in Zhou Cheng's view, Qin Ming was truly a good kid, completely love-brained for Zhou Wanyu.

The type who was available at her beck and call; he would surely be single-minded in the future.

At the same time, he was the absolute heir to the Qin Family, and his abilities were top-tier.

He was simply impeccable.

However, if Zhou Wanyu remained dissatisfied later and felt there was no love between her and Qin Ming, Zhou Cheng wouldn't force the alliance.

Just as Zhou Cheng's mother had said when Old Master Qin visited the Zhou Family: they could have an alliance, but whether they married would depend on their own decision; if either party disagreed, it could be canceled at any time.

Zhou Cheng felt the same way now.

Of course, it absolutely couldn't be someone like Chu Tianyi.

After Zhou Cheng and Zhou Feiyu sat down, Old Master Qin kept his eyes fixed on Zhou Cheng.

This was the first time he had looked at Zhou Cheng seriously, so he was very curious.

What kind of person was this Second Young Master of the Zhou Family, who had dominated all of the Family's recent affairs!

The young people of Zhou Cheng's generation all thought that Zhou Cheng becoming a police officer was just him having too much time on his hands.

They thought Zhou Cheng would definitely lead the Zhou Family to collapse!

But in his eyes, Zhou Cheng was absolutely not like that!

Seizing power from the Board of Directors, angrily catching the fake illegitimate son at the hospital, creating Xingchen Technology Company, cutting ties with the parasitic Ye Family! Decisively and ruthlessly resolving his elder brother Zhou Feiyu's emotional issues, sending him abroad, and rescuing him from his confusion!

All of this was accomplished by the kid before him in a very short period!

One could say that the ruthlessness of this kid's methods and the decisiveness of his actions were things even he, an Old Family Head who had managed the Qin Family for decades, had to admire!

Since Chen Xingyao's death, Zhou Feiyu had withstood the first wave of collapse, and Zhou Cheng had resolved all the crises!

Now, the Zhou Family was rising again, as if it once more possessed infinite Luck!

Therefore, Old Master Qin was also happy at this moment. If his grandson could truly marry Zhou Wanyu, even if the Qin Family didn't take another step forward, at least maintaining the status quo would be no problem!

"Xiao Cheng, when I saw you before, you were still just a boy. I didn't expect you to grow up all of a sudden and be able to hold your own. It's truly sentimental; Miss Chen's sons are indeed young talents!"

Old Master Qin praised him without reservation.

"Not at all, I was just performing some standard operations," Zhou Cheng replied.

In his previous life, he was just a workhorse. Although he had merged with his Previous Self's memories in this life, his Previous Self's head was mostly filled with being love-brained, and he didn't have much of a reserve in terms of social etiquette.

So Zhou Cheng just spoke casually.

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone was stunned. Zhou Feiyu shot a glance at Zhou Cheng, feeling a bit embarrassed.

Old Master Qin was the same, but he then burst out laughing.

"Your 'standard operations' are quite confident, but it's good to have such standard operations."

After a bit of small talk, Zhou Cheng and Old Master Qin became more familiar with each other.

Afterward, Old Master Qin had Qin Ming take Zhou Wanyu out to attend the cocktail party.

Clearly, he was preparing to discuss serious business with the two Zhou brothers.

Zhou Cheng happened to have the same intention.

"Back in the eighties, the Dragon King appeared. His identity was ordinary; at the time, he was just a migrant worker who had come to Shanghai to work. He served as a security guard and later as a Bodyguard and driver for the Young Miss of the Liu Family at that time."

"For some unknown reason, not just the Liu Family, but also the daughters of several other families like the Qian and Li families developed feelings for him. Naturally, the various Families did not agree!"

"Because many of these young misses had marriage contracts with other families. For example, the Liu Family's daughter had a marriage contract with the Sima Family, which was the head of the Eight Great Families at the time!"

"To that end, starting from the Liu Family to the Sima Family, and then several families joined forces to suppress him, wanting him to give up! Various methods were used one after another..."

Old Master Qin spoke slowly, recounting that past event.

"However, when he came out holding the dragon king token, the businesses of the various families that had oppressed him plummeted instantly!"

"He grew stronger with every battle! In the end, the Liu and Li families surrendered. My Qin Family happened to have no daughters of the right age, so we had no connection with him and didn't participate. Thus, out of the Eight Great Families, five were wiped out, leaving only the three of us!"
