~7 min read 1,322 words

"I said, these things will definitely not make things difficult for you. We've been friends for so long, can't you trust me?" Zhuge Yue smiled and said.

Hearing Zhuge Yue's words, I thought about it, and indeed there was no better way at the moment, so I had no choice but to choose to believe in Zhuge Yue.

Seeing me agree, Zhuge Yue smiled craftily and said to me: "Remember what you said, don't you dare go back on your word!"

The news of Xiaohuan and my engagement also spread quickly. Everyone in the school knew my identity, knew that I was the Zheng family's grandson-in-law, and that the Old Matriarch Zheng thought very highly of me.

However, because of this, Ding Yang was very unhappy. Originally, he had wanted to use the family's power to take action because he had specifically investigated Zheng Yun's identity, and he was just an outsider. But in the blink of an eye, he had become a member of the Zheng family, which made things very difficult for him. Although the Ding family was powerful, it wasn't that simple to forcibly move against the Zheng family.

Ding Yang was not the type to give up. Although Zheng Yun's matter was difficult to handle now, it didn't mean it couldn't be done. Ding Yang wanted to gamble on Zheng Yun's weight in the Zheng family. He gambled that the Zheng family wouldn't fall out with the Ding family because of Zheng Yun. After all, with the Zheng family's power, if they wanted to forcibly stand up for Zheng Yun, the Zheng family would definitely face the risk of bankruptcy. Therefore, he didn't believe the Zheng family would be so impulsive. After all, people in this upper-class society valued family interests above all else; there was simply no such thing as family affection.

As for the Ding family, they knew what Ding Yang wanted to do and didn't stop him, because they felt he was just an outsider to the Zheng family, someone without any blood relationship, so it wasn't worth their attention. Moreover, such a person daring to provoke the Ding family deserved to be punished; after all, the Ding family's face was also very important.

And these days, Zhuge Yue suddenly reminded me that Ding Yang wouldn't give up so easily and might use family connections to deal with me later. Hearing this, I felt a bit strange. If the Ding family really wanted to use family connections to deal with me, I was afraid I really couldn't handle it. After all, who knew how powerful the experts in the hands of such a big family were.

Zhuge Yue also knew my worries and comforted me: "Don't worry, things will definitely pass, and this matter is basically a close call, so you can rest assured!"

I smiled and looked at Zhuge Yue: "You leak information to me every day, making me feel like I can't do without you!"

Zhuge Yue also smiled and said to me: "That's right, the goal is to make you feel that way!"

I coughed awkwardly twice and then changed the subject: "Are you sure you can help me handle the engagement matter?"

Zhuge Yue patted her chest and said confidently: "Don't worry, I said I can help you handle it, and I definitely will!"

Only then did I feel relieved. Just at this moment, Ding Yang suddenly brought a group of people over. I knew Ding Yang would take action, but I didn't expect him to take action so quickly, and in front of so many people. This was simply not taking the school or the Zheng family seriously. However, with the Ding family's strength, they indeed didn't need to care about these things.

Seeing these people arrive, Zhuge Yue smiled and looked at me: "Your trouble has arrived. Alright, I have something else to do, so I'll go first!"

"Damn, you're really not being a good friend. You run away as soon as people arrive. At least say something for me!" I complained to Zhuge Yue.

Zhuge Yue smiled and said: "Don't worry, you'll be fine. I really have something to do, so I'm leaving!"

Seeing Zhuge Yue talking and laughing with me, Ding Yang was instantly furious and shouted to the people he brought: "What are you still standing there for? Get him for me!"

After speaking, all of Ding Yang's people rushed over. Looking at their formation, there were quite a few experts, and there were even two people among them I couldn't see through. Their strength was likely higher than mine. Seeing this situation, I knew I was mostly done for. I couldn't help but complain about Zhuge Yue again in my heart. This guy said I would be fine; this is bullshit. How could I possibly deal with these people?

Just as they were about to arrive, several figures suddenly blocked in front of me. Seeing this situation, the other side stopped in their tracks.

And Ding Yang suddenly saw this situation and clearly didn't understand, so he hurriedly asked: "What are you standing there for? It's just a few people, isn't it?"

One of the leaders on Ding Yang's side, who looked like the person in charge of the Ding family, said to the people beside me: "Zheng Hong, I didn't expect you to actually come. It seems the Zheng family really cares about this junior?"

Regarding the few people in front of me, to be honest, I was also a bit confused. I didn't know these people at all. These people were mostly here to protect me, and judging by the other side's address just now, could they be from the Zheng family?

Zheng Hong looked at the person who spoke and said coldly: "Ding Qing, aren't you the same? For the sake of a junior, even you have been dispatched. Your Ding family is really thoughtful!"

Ding Qing looked at Zheng Hong coldly and said: "Zheng Hong, I advise your Zheng family to mind your own business. This kid Zheng Yun has insulted our Ding family's face, and our family head wants him personally. If your Zheng family dares to stop us, we'll deal with your Zheng family together!"

Hearing Ding Qing's words, Zheng Hong's expression was a bit hesitant. It could be seen that they were indeed very wary of the Ding family's power.

Seeing Zheng Hong's hesitant expression, Ding Yang hurriedly shouted: "Hurry up and catch him!"

Ding Qing and his group hurriedly came over, preparing to take me down. Just at this moment, Zheng Hong blocked Ding Qing. They exchanged a few moves and then hurriedly retreated. Ding Qing's face was ugly because his strength was similar to Zheng Hong's, and it was impossible to take me away in front of Zheng Hong.

Ding Qing shouted angrily at Zheng Hong: "Zheng Hong, what do you mean? Do you really want to be enemies with our Ding family?"

Zheng Hong snorted and said: "Zheng Yun is a member of our Zheng family, the Zheng family's grandson-in-law. You were the ones who made things difficult first. If your Ding family really wants to try, then our Zheng family is not to be trifled with. Other families might be afraid of you, but our Zheng family is not!"

"Are you representing your Zheng family's attitude?" Ding Yang shouted angrily at us and Zheng Hong.

Zheng Hong was not intimidated by the other side's momentum, but instead said even more forcefully: "What I said naturally represents the Zheng family, and also represents the Zheng family's attitude towards Zheng Yun. If your Ding family still wants to take action, feel free to try!"

The reason Zheng Hong dared to say this was naturally because he had the confidence. When he came, the Old Matriarch Zheng specifically instructed that Zheng Yun was their Zheng family's grandson-in-law, and no one could touch him. ===== CHAPTER 195 =====
