Chapter 705: 701. Kneel and Apologize for Your Father (Please Subscribe and Vote)

Yuehan was also a shrewd person; seeing that Zhang Ran was Huaxia, he used Mandarin, which Xu Meijuan could naturally understand.

Making a living in Chinatown, how could one not know a bit of Mandarin?

Yuehan had some proficiency in Mandarin; at the very least, he had no issues with communication.

Moreover, he had lived in the vicinity since he was a child, so learning it through constant exposure was not very difficult, or rather, he learned most of it quite naturally.

Zhou Gang looked at his mother's current state and was suddenly struck with panic.

"Mom, listen to me, I only did this once. I know Grandma is sick and won't see a doctor because of me, wanting to save money for me to marry a proper wife, but I didn't want to see Grandma struggling like this, so..."

"So you went to smuggle?" An aged but very stern voice rang out, and a grandmother appeared from behind Scorpion and the others.

Many people had seen the situation here, and some had notified Zhou Jia Laotaitai.

In the hearts of these people, regardless of whether Zhou Gang had grown up, this grandmother was still the head of the Zhou family, so they notified her first whenever anything happened.

The grandmother had already been there for a while, and when she saw Zhang Ran, she froze in place.

Immediately after, she saw how Zhang Ran had handled the situation, and her heart was filled with a complex mix of emotions!

Seeing that his grandmother had arrived, Zhou Gang became even more panicked and hurriedly stepped forward to help her.

In the past, Zhou Jia Laotaitai would not have let him help her, but today she did not stop him, which made Zhou Gang pause in surprise.

Zhang Ran also saw the grandmother, and seeing her appearance, now aged to the point of frailty, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

When Zhang Ran first met the grandmother years ago, she was still in the prime of her life, strong and robust.

This is not an insult; in the countryside, especially in the 80s and 90s, rural women were truly stronger than the average man, and when it came to manual labor, they were no less capable than those men.

At the same time, Zhang Ran stood up; regardless of anything else, she was an elder, and Zhang Ran still held this grandmother in high regard.

The grandmother first came before Zhang Ran and bowed slightly, saying, "Mr. Zhang, you have come."

Zhang Ran hurriedly helped her up and said, "I heard you were here, so I came to take a look."

This time, he did not deny that he had come specifically for them.

Zhou Gang, standing to the side, was stunned. His own grandmother knew this big shot?

He had just witnessed this big shot's prestige; that was truly what he had dreamed of being like.

Without needing to speak, and with his people barely saying a word, he had scared Yuehan into such a state.

Now that his own grandmother clearly knew this big shot, Zhou Gang's mind suddenly became active.

Xu Meijuan felt a jolt in her heart; she seemed to have realized something.

When she and Zhou Fei married years ago, Zhang Ran had not come, and she had never met him, but she had heard her husband and mother-in-law speak of him.

Especially whenever her husband mentioned "Brother Zhang," he was always full of admiration and pride; she would never forget that expression for as long as she lived.

That was pride and self-esteem from the bottom of his heart!

From this, one could see the status Zhang Ran held in Zhou Fei's heart.

But after they were brought to the United States in Zhou Fei's name, things seemed to have changed.

At this moment, seeing her mother-in-law's attitude, she knew that this Mr. Zhang was very likely her husband's boss, or perhaps his former boss?

What was he doing here now? She did not know, but she also understood that she could only leave it to fate!

Yuehan felt even colder inside; he had originally thought this big shot was just unable to stand by or had acted on a whim to uphold justice, but he hadn't expected that he actually knew them.

"Mr. Zhang, please wait a moment," the grandmother said.

Zhang Ran nodded and said, "Please, take your time; I am not in a hurry."

The grandmother nodded, then looked at Yuehan and said, "My grandson was indeed in the wrong this time; I will have him give you an explanation."

Yuehan hurriedly said, "No need, no need, we are all friends, it's just a small matter. From now on, we can work together with Jieke."

"No need. I warn you, do not drag my grandson into the water. If he dares to do these things again, I will break his legs, and I will not let you off easily either," the grandmother said sternly.

Yuehan's heart tightened; he had just played a little trick, and at this moment, Zhou Gang's status in his mind had completely changed.

With such a big shot covering him, if he could pull them into their group, then their business in the future would be different from before.

"Yes, yes, yes, it won't happen again, it definitely won't," Yuehan didn't dare say anything more and hurriedly nodded and bowed in response.

The grandmother looked at him and said, "This is the only time. I will discipline my grandson well."

Yuehan knew this was a signal for him to leave, and he felt a sudden sense of relief; as long as he could leave, it was fine.

Staying here now really made him feel immense pressure, especially with those people still standing outside the door, which made him feel panicked.

Watching him lead his men away in a sorry state, Zhang Ran smiled, "Grandmother, do you really not need me to resolve any future trouble?"

Zhou Jia Laotaitai watched as, following Yuehan's departure, the people on Zhang Ran's side also vanished in an instant, blending into the crowd; if one didn't look carefully, one wouldn't notice them at all.

Her heart was also filled with a complex mix of emotions; if not for that accident back then, perhaps her son would also be among this group?

Sighing slightly in her heart, the grandmother said, "Thank you for your concern, Mr. Zhang. You have already helped us a lot; if you hadn't been here, things would not have been so easy to resolve."

"Also, I used you just now; I hope you do not mind."

Zhou Jia Laotaitai had indeed been using Zhang Ran just now; the moment she appeared and greeted him, it was to tell Yuehan that she knew this person.

In this way, Yuehan would naturally not dare to continue causing trouble.

Zhang Ran smiled and shook his head, "It's nothing, just a small matter, don't worry about it."

Before the grandmother could speak, Zhou Gang said with a grin, "Grandma, who is this big brother? He's so impressive?"

He was still thinking about taking this opportunity to see if he could get to know this big shot; if he could establish a connection, that would truly be for the best.

The grandmother looked at her grandson and suddenly said, "Kneel down!"

Zhou Gang froze, looking at his grandmother in confusion, at a loss for what to do.

The grandmother said again, "Kneel to Mr. Zhang. Your father committed a mistake, and he is unable to apologize; you will kneel and apologize to Mr. Zhang on your father's behalf."

Zhang Ran watched this scene, his lips moving, but seeing the grandmother's nervous and hopeful eyes, and seeing her withered body, he sighed slightly and said nothing.
