Chapter 670 - Getting the Guan's brothers support

Xiong Zhi lightly smiled. "Alright. Let's meet them tomorrow. But before that, we have to bring something first, so that they can believe us without a doubt."

Linfeng's eyes narrowed and understood her meaning. "You mean...?"

"Yes. That's why you need to hurry your men to finish the investigation. If we have to throw a bomb to the two Guan brothers, we must do it all at once." So that they could dispel any hint of doubt in the Guan brothers' hearts.

It would also be a welcoming gift to the alliance.

Linfeng thought about it. 

He suddenly pitied the two brothers. 

It sounded like the cunning Young Miss Xiong was planning to overwork the two to death after giving them a scare.

Just like how she did with Lu Yin Ze and Tang Yin.

He smiled helplessly and patted her head. "Alright. Since they expressed their support for us, we should maximize it thoroughly. It is also for their goal anyway."

The evening passed by and the next morning came.

A low-key and rather ordinary-looking car slowly rolled to a stop. 

The doors opened.

Guan Gu Ri and Guan Xixin came down from the car. The former head butler who drove them here came down as well. The three were wearing hats and masks. 

It was autumn and the wind was cold, so they did not look out of place. Except perhaps for the intimidating air around them.

Since the Guan Empire was in a bit of a pinch right now, Guan Gu Ri and Guan Xixin were being watched by many eyes. 

Many of them were likely from the enemies' spies.

Guan Gu Ri who was wearing black sunglasses, a black face mask, and a black cap was stunned, seeing the IHZHI building in front of him.

Wasn't it owned by the Xiong Heiress?

"Are you sure that the meeting place is here, Xixin?" Guan Gu Ri asked Guan Xixin who was also donning the same getup.

After Guan Gu Ri vowed that he would help Guan Xixin achieve revenge, Guan Xixin told him that there were actually people who were helping him gather information.

At first, Guan Gu Ri was full of distrust. 

After what happened to their family, his worldview was subverted and he no longer was gentle and mild like before. He became s.e.n.s.i.t.i.v.e and cautious.

Someone helping them might not be truly good news. 

What if these people were wolves in sheep's clothing? 

He did not believe that there would be a free meal in the world. Since they were helping Guan Xixin, then they must want something in return.

However, what he did not expect was that his brother would bring him to IHZHI.

The kind and gentle brother who always thought of the good in people was now full of distrust and scrutiny towards others. 

Guan Xixin's c.h.e.s.t was suffocated just thinking about it. But he composed himself. 

"Brother, don't worry. I am not a person who trusts people so easily. Once you meet them, you'll know that they are trustworthy. I was not able to ask them what they wanted in return by helping us. I got too preoccupied at that time. With you here, we can ask them now."

Guan Gu Ri nodded. His eyes were solemn.

Right, he might not trust those people, but he trusted his brother.

There were already people waiting for them at the entrance. They led the two brothers to the CEO's office.

When the elevator stopped, the man who was leading them bowed.

"Headmaster Guan and Second Master Guan can take off your masks now. This area is safe."

Guan Gu Ri looked at his brother.

Guan Gu Ri followed after.

They were escorted to the largest room on the floor. 

Guan Gu Ri's eyes flashed as he observed his surroundings. 

The chairman's office.

Was it Xiong Zhi?

Or the Xiong Head himself?

However, this was IHZHI which was separate from the Xiong Empire, and the Xiong Head was unlikely to come here.

Guan Gu Ri was full of caution.

The butler knocked and announced their presence.

"Master, the guests are here."

"Let them come in." It was the voice of a man.

Guan Gu Ri: A young man, not the Xiong Heiress or the Xiong Head?

Perhaps, someone else who the Xiong Heiress knew?

The door opened. 

The young heiress of the Xiong family was sitting on the chairman's seat and Linfeng was standing beside her.

Her expressionless face was not welcoming as always. Her aura was sharp.

Xiong Zhi and Linfeng both stood up to greet the new Headmaster of the Guan family and his brother.

Guan Gu Ri's eyes flickered with surprise. 

Even though he already expected it, he was still surprised.

Stepping inside, Guan Xixin smiled and greeted them. 

"Miss Xiong Zhi, Mr. Zhou Linfeng, thank you for having us today."

Guan Gu Ri's eyes landed on the very tall man with handsome features and masculine built.

Zhou Linfeng.

The butler who had made a name for himself was truly excellent and charismatic like the rumors said. 

To be able to dissolve the treaty that spanned for hundreds of years harmoniously, build up a thriving world-class company from scratch, and even willingly pledge himself as a loyal butler of the Xiong Heiress, he was unpredictable and cunning.

There had been rumours between him and the Xiong Heiress, but no one dared to say anything out loud.

Hiding his thoughts, Guan Gu Ri greeted them politely. "Thank you for agreeing to our request."

Xiong Zhi looked at Linfeng. Although she could now handle clients in a business-like manner, to better maintain a good atmosphere, she decided to let Linfeng handle everything as he was more familiar with them.

Linfeng smiled amiably. 

"It's our p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e. Please take a seat. There's a lot to discuss."
