Chapter 350: Regret
“This, this…”
Everyone in the Zheng family looked at Zhang Hui, their faces turning pale.
Didn’t Zhang Hui say that the He family did not have any background and were easily manipulated?
“Miss Lu!”
Constable Wang bowed to Lu Sheng the moment he entered.
This action scared Zhang Hui so much that his body froze and his legs started trembling.
Lu Sheng nodded slightly. Constable Wang had just stood up when he saw Lu Zhou. He was first stunned before his eyes widened in disbelief.
Before Lu Zhou returned to Lin Jiang Mansion, he had often been with Chu Sihan, Fu Xianyun, and Lu Sheng. Therefore, Constable Wang naturally knew his true identity.
It was already surprising enough to see Lu Zhou in Huang Yang Town. He did not expect to see Lu Zhou in this small An Mu Village.
“Greetings, Third Prince!”
Seeing Constable Wang kneel, the other constables followed suit.
Lu Zhou nodded. “Get up.”
“Prince… Prince?!”
Zhang Hui’s body swayed and he fell to the ground.
The faces of the Zheng family were even paler. They could not be bothered with Zhang Hui and prepared to slip away.
Unexpectedly, a black shadow flashed past and an extraordinarily handsome man blocked their path.
“The matter hasn’t been clarified yet. Where do you want to go?”
Shangguan Dian waved the fan he obtained from nowhere and smiled at the Zheng family who were preparing to escape.
“We… this has nothing to do with us!”
Zhang Xiaohua’s mother-in-law, Mdm Pu, waved her hands frantically and explained, “It’s Zhang Hui. He called us over.”
“You came over just because he called you here?” Shangguan Dian snorted coldly. “He hasn’t even asked you to leave yet. Why are you leaving already?”
“I… We… We…”
As Mdm Pu spoke, she knelt on the ground with a thud, her entire body trembling.
“Spare us! Spare us! We didn’t want to come over. Zhang Hui ordered us to do so. If you want to jail someone, jail him up!”
Zhang Hui’s scalp was numb. His legs were weak and his mind became blank. He did not even know where he was now.
Constable Wang was already scaring him badly. In the end, ther was also a prince.
Prince! They could not even see the magistrate, but a prince actually visited the He family!
When did the He family become so capable?
He regretted it so much that his intestines turned green!
He should not have let Zhang Xiaohua and He Qin break off the engagement just to gain more benefits. The Duan family had benefited from this instead.
Now, not only did he not receive any money, but he also could not disgust the He family. Instead, he scared himself.
A gust of wind blew and a pungent smell suddenly filled the air. Everyone’s gaze landed on Zhang Hui.
Shangguan Dian hurriedly covered his nose with the fan in his hand and said disdainfully, “How useless.”
“Prince… Prince, please spare us. We only listened to Zhang Hui’s words in a moment of folly. Please let us off!”
The Zheng family knelt forward and kowtowed to Lu Zhou, begging for mercy.
Lu Zhou moved aside and said lightly, “You should be asking the He family instead of me.”
When the Zheng family heard that, they knelt down and begged He Qin and the rest.
Initially, the Zheng family did not have much interaction with the He family. It was only because of Zhang Hui’s instigation that they became obsessed with money.
He Zhang and He Lai did not speak. He Hu and Mdm Xu looked at He Qin.
It was Mdm Zhao’s first time seeing such a scene. She was more or less shocked and tugged at Lu Sheng’s sleeve tightly.
