Campus Beauty, Scamp Master

At this moment, many rich and powerful people had gathered in the Zhou Family's Stone Gambling Meeting's platform. They were talking to each other, and the atmosphere was very lively.    

    

However, their eyes were looking at the grand exhibition platform from time to time, as if they were waiting for something.    

    

The half hour appointment was about to arrive. Obviously, these rich and powerful people wanted to watch a good show.    

    

"Why isn't that kid here yet? Don't tell me he doesn't want to come because he can't find good raw materials?"    

    

In the exhibition stage, Zhou Yuan paced back and forth anxiously and muttered in a low voice.    

    

Zhou Yan, on the other hand, was very calm. He sat calmly on a sofa chair. He waited quietly. In his hand was a piece of ink-black raw material. The shape of this raw material looked very special. It made people want to take a few more glances at it.    

    

One had to say that Zhou Yan's eyesight was really sharp. Just this ink-black raw material could be used as a piece of art. With just a little bit of processing, it could be sold for a thousand gold coins.    

    

"Brother-in-law, why aren't you in a hurry at all?"    

    

Seeing Zhou Yan's indifferent manner, Zhou Yuan couldn't help but feel puzzled and asked.    

    

"What's there to be anxious about? What should come will come eventually."    

    

Zhou Yan said slowly with a calm expression.    

    

"Brother-in-law, this is related to the reputation of our Zhou Family..." Zhou Yuan wanted to say something more when he saw Zhou Yan's indifferent expression.    

    

At this moment, an uproar came from the crowd.    

    

Zhou Yuan turned his head and saw that there was a path among the rich and powerful people. Those rich and powerful people all had respectful expressions on their faces, as if they had seen some big shot.    

    

Very quickly, Zhou Yuan saw an old man with a head full of white hair appear in the crowd. Those rich and powerful people were respectful to him.    

    

Zhou Yuan fixed his eyes and could not help but exclaim, "It's Elder Li! Why is he here?"    

    

"Elder Li?"    

    

Zhou Yan also frowned when he heard that. He sat up from his chair and muttered in a deep voice.    

    

"Didn't you arrange his stall in the most remote corner? Why would he still appear here?"    

    

Just as the two of them were puzzled, a few more figures appeared behind Elder Li. When they saw these figures, they immediately understood why Elder Li was here.    

    

"Ren Quan!" When Zhou Yan saw Ren Quan, Wang Xiao, and the others behind Elder Lee, his facial expression turned ugly. He clenched his fists slightly.    

    

He did not expect Ren Quan and the others to meet Elder Lee. Judging from the current situation, was Elder Lee going to help them?    

    

It wasn't just Zhou Yan who said this, the surrounding high-ranking officials and nobles who recognized Elder Lee were all whispering to each other.    

    

"It's Elder Lee. He hasn't appeared for a long time. I didn't expect him to be here today!"    

    

"That's right. Ever since Elder Lee was in Stone Gambling Meeting... He gave some advice to Ren Quan from the Ren family, which made Ren Quan a huge profit. Ever since the Ren family had become successful, the higher ups of Zhou Family blamed Elder Lee for everything. I have marginalized him. I didn't expect Elder Lee to appear here today."    

    

"Besides, he seems to be with Ren Quan of the Ren family. Does this mean that he has spread some news to us? He is leaving the Zhou Family and going to the Ren family?"    

    

"What's so strange about that? People go higher and the water flows lower. Since the Zhou Family doesn't want to use him, it's normal for him to go to the Ren family!"    

    

"That's true. If it was me, I wouldn't be able to stand being marginalized for so many years!"    

    

"Someone said that the reason why Elder Lee didn't appear all these years was because he wanted to repay the Zhou Family's debt. Now that he has appeared, he probably wants to tell the Zhou Family that he has repaid all the debts that he owed the Zhou Family..."    

    

The surrounding officials and nobles discussed animatedly. In just a short while, they had already imagined a series of plots.    

    

"Elder Lee, why didn't you sell the raw materials at your stall? What are you doing here?"    

    

When Elder Li came to the exhibition stand, Zhou Yuan frowned and said first.    

    

In the past, Elder Lee had a very high position in the Zhou Family. Not to mention him, even Zhou Yan could only lower his head when he saw Elder Lee.    

    

But now, Elder Lee had been marginalized. A phoenix in distress was no match for a chicken. That was why he dared to speak coldly to Elder Lee.    

    

As soon as Zhou Yuan said this, many of the surrounding dignitaries and nobles couldn't help but frown. Many of them had received Elder Lee's guidance in the past, and had gotten a lot of money from him. From then on, they had become rich.    

    

Now that they saw Zhou Yuan being so rude to Elder Lee, they couldn't help but feel somewhat displeased.    

    

"I heard that there is a gambling competition here. I have nothing to do right now, so I wanted to come and take a look. I don't think I have disturbed you guys, right?"    

    

Although Zhou Yuan's attitude was very bad, Elder Lee wasn't angry. He smiled faintly and said.    

    

Over the years, he had experienced countless cold words. He had stubbornly endured them. These few words of Zhou Yuan could not defeat him.    

    

"You..." Zhou Yuan still wanted to say something, but at this time, he was interrupted by Zhou Yan with a wave of his hand.    

    

"Shut up, how can you talk to Elder Lee?" Zhou Yan stood up and glared at Zhou Yuan. He said in a deep voice, "Elder Lee was the number one stone gambling expert in Zhou Family. Even though he is old now, he is still the number one stone gambling expert in Zhou Family. That position is still very high. Don't be presumptuous!"    

    

On the surface, he said that Elder Lee had a high status, but in fact, he was mocking Elder Lee for being old. Elder Lee was merely the number one stone gambling expert of Zhou Family. There was nothing special about him.    

    

When Zhou Yuan heard this, he understood the sarcasm in Zhou Yan's words. He nodded repeatedly and said in a strange tone, "Brother-in-law is right. Elder Lee was merely a stone gambling expert back then. Even if he is old now, we still have to respect him."    

    

After saying that, Zhou Yuan sneered.    

    

"Zhou Yuan, all of you are bad people!"    

    

When Ren Yingying heard the conversation between Zhou Yuan and the others, a trace of anger appeared on her pretty face. She gritted her teeth and said.    

    

This group of bastards from the Zhou Family were just trying to get rid of them!    

    

No one knew how much money Elder Lee had earned them all those years ago, but in the end, they just treated Elder Lee like this!    

    

"Ying Ying, don't be angry. I'm fine with this old man."    

    

Elder Lee, on the other hand, had a kind smile on his face. He shook his head at Ren Yingying and said.    

    

"But..." Ren Yingying still wanted to say something. At this moment, a warm big hand was placed on her shoulder. She turned her head and looked, "Wang Xiao?"    

    

"Leave the matter between men to men. I will make them pay double for the humiliation that Elder Lee suffered!" Wang Xiao had a faint smile on his face. His eyes were slightly narrowed as he said softly.    

    

Those who were familiar with Wang Xiao knew that he was really angry now.    

    

The person he hated the most was the person who would get rid of the millstone and kill the donkey!    

    

Especially someone like Elder Li, who had made a huge contribution to the Forest City's jewelry industry. He felt that such a person was much more handsome than any young and handsome actor!    

    

Thinking of this, Wang Xiao stood up and looked directly at Zhou Yan. He said in a deep voice, "I'm here. Let's start the competition!"
