Chapter 299: The Zhou Family!_1

Back at the hotel, Yin Tian collapsed on the sofa, utterly exhausted.

He hadn’t even had time to close his eyes when he saw Chen Yu come over with a flushed face.

"What are you doing?"

Yin Tian looked at Chen Yu with confusion, "What’s wrong?"

"Qinwei, Huang, and I discussed it and, to be fair, we decided each of us would take turns sleeping with you for a day..."

Chen Yu’s voice was very soft, her face flushed as if blood could drip from it, "Today it’s me, tomorrow it’s Qinwei..."

Yin Tian: "??"

What did they take him for?

A human-shaped heater?

What exactly had happened during the days he wasn’t staying at the hotel?

"Yu, actually, we don’t really need to..."

Yin Tian was in the middle of speaking when he noticed Chen Yu’s lips pout in a very disappointed expression.

His heart softened, and he blurted out, "Alright, it’s getting late, let’s go to sleep."

Chen Yu looked up at Yin Tian, her face filled with immense surprise.

With a helpless smile, Yin Tian opened his arms toward Chen Yu.

Chen Yu immediately dove into his embrace, like a swallow returning to its nest...

The next morning, Yin Tian woke up early.

He had been worried about the Zhou Family’s affairs in the Imperial Capital, unsure of how they planned to deal with him.

Glancing down lightly, he saw Chen Yu still sleeping sweetly in his arms, and he smiled softly, careful not to move and wake her.

At the moment, his knowledge of the Zhou Family was not very comprehensive.

All he knew was that the Zhou Family was not an ordinary one but an ancient family with some means.

This much had been evident from Zhou Gen’s behavior before.

As for the information Chen Yu had asked someone to investigate about the Zhou Family, it was somewhat helpful but not very significant. The only useful clue was the Zhou Family’s location.

Yin Tian lay there for more than an hour, and finally, Chen Yu slowly woke up.

As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Yin Tian looking at her with tender eyes.

Chen Yu’s face immediately turned red.

In a bit of panic, she extricated herself from Yin Tian’s embrace and turned her head away, not daring to look at him.

Yin Tian simply smiled lightly, sat up, and his face bore a gentle smile.

"For the next few days, stay in this hotel and don’t go anywhere else, got it?"

Yin Tian earnestly instructed Chen Yu.

Chen Yu nodded obediently, then looked at Yin Tian with confusion, "And what will you be doing?"

"I’ll settle Nianbing’s matters."

Chen Yu was taken aback, then remembered the conversation between Yin Tian and Old Mr. Xia from the day before.

"Alright, then be careful."

Chen Yu nodded slowly, looking at Yin Tian with concern.

"Don’t worry."

As Yin Tian spoke, he had already stood up and was walking towards the door.

He believed that with the Zhou Family’s ability, they would easily find him.

Having Chen Yu and the others follow him was obviously dangerous, so it was better to use himself as bait to draw the Zhou Family’s attention away.

That way, at least he could ensure the safety of Su Qinwei and the other two.

Soon, Yin Tian had reached the hotel lobby.

He was about to walk outside when he suddenly noticed a car parked outside.

The car window rolled down slowly, revealing the face of a young man.

He wore a strange smile and waved at Yin Tian.

Yin Tian frowned slightly, having guessed the identity of the person.

The Zhou Family!

He hadn’t expected them to act so quickly, to find his whereabouts immediately, and to be waiting right there.

Yin Tian walked over to the car, and the young man opened the door, signaling for Yin Tian to get in.

Without any hesitation, Yin Tian got in and closed the door behind him.

"Yin Tian?"

The young man still wore a smile that wasn’t quite a smile and grinned at Yin Tian.

"Hmm."

Yin Tian nodded, looking straight at the young man without flinching, "Zhou Family?"

"Sixth Son of the Zhou Family, Zhou Li."

"What is it?"

Yin Tian, completely unconcerned with what the person in front of him was called, asked indifferently, "You didn’t come all the way from the Imperial Capital to the Province City just to introduce yourself, did you?"

Zhou Li nodded seriously, "Of course, you’ve given my Zhou Family a harsh slap. If we don’t respond, wouldn’t that mean anyone can ride over the Zhou Family’s head?"

"How is Zhou Gen?"

"My fourth brother? He’s still dazed every day, but his mouth keeps repeating one name. Guess whose?"

"It wouldn’t be my name, would it?"

"Indeed it is."

Zhou Li spoke with a blank expression, as if he were telling a story about a stranger, "Although my fourth brother isn’t very capable, he’s still my brother, so that grudge has to be settled eventually."

"So, you think you can settle this debt with me?"

"One always has to try."

Zhou Li said slowly, and then he finally stated his intention.

"I’ve organized a banquet tonight, care to join?"
