Chapter 14
White Tower.
As soon as the word came out of Jian Zhi’s mouth, it was like a poisoned knife piercing everyone in the banquet hall.
The crystal lamp swayed and flickered, and the wind blowing from nowhere made the lamp shadow heavy.
Jian Fang raised her head nervously. The banquet hall was airtight on all sides. The windows were sealed and covered with thick curtains. Where did the wind come from?
He turned his eyes and looked at the man behind Jian Zhi. Ye Chenzhi stood there casually with his arms folded, tapping his arms with his fingers, looking quite calm and composed.
That rhythm is exactly the same as the swaying rhythm of the lamp shadow!
He is actually in control?Can such a small movement control the airflow and turn it into a wind strong enough to blow something as heavy as a crystal lamp?
Jian Fang’s expression changed. He suddenly discovered that the wind controlled by Ye Chenzhi was only above the banquet hall and did not fall on them at all, but this was enough to show how strong his control over the supernatural powers was.
I’m afraid that it will only take a moment to kill people by using the wind!
“Father,” Jane spoke out, reminding Jane of the strangeness in Lu Zhong’s banquet hall, “Xiao Zhi just experienced that kind of thing and is emotionally unstable. Don’t be so cruel to him.”
“Oh?”
Jian Zhi’s eyes finally fell on him, but Jian Fang felt like he was being targeted by a poisonous snake.
“Brother, it seems that you also know about the trial stand?”
Ye Chenzhi raised his eyebrows and said, “You know that too, right?”
“I saw you lectured me shamelessly in the car, and I thought you felt sorry for this brother.”
When he spoke, he put away his usual cynical tone, purely to make Jian Fang uncomfortable. He lowered his tone, and his tone was oppressive and full of sarcasm.
Jian Luzhong’s eyes suddenly moved from Jian Zhi to Ye Chenzhi.
“Are you the Awakened One?” he asked.
“The strongest awakened person in the federation,” Jian Zhi suddenly smiled, and sat down at the other end of the long table, facing Jian Lu Zhong from afar, “he is my friend now.”
He was good-looking to begin with, and now his smile was like a spring breeze, making the stagnant banquet hall feel lighter, as if he had brought all those brilliant lights, and everything became brighter.
Jian Zhi stretched out his hand to Ye Chenzhi and invited him to sit down at the first place on his right.
Ye Chenzhi would not be polite about this kind of thing at all. Not only did he sit down calmly, he also snapped his fingers to indicate to the male servants that they could serve the food.
Seeing his behavior, Jian Zhi thought to himself that you must be a young master at home.
However, this style is just right here.
He and Ye Chenzhi sat at the end of the long table, while Jian Lu Zhong and Jian Fang sat at the head of the long table. There was a large empty seat in the middle, but there was one person sitting at the front and back seats, forming a naked confrontation.
Jian Luzhong was breathing heavily, and behind the inorganic lenses, his eyes were filled with cold light.
His son was sitting opposite him, with the same beautiful face. His skin was so white that it was almost transparent, like fine silk satin, glowing with a delicate luster. Such a man of glass was looking at him with such cold eyes.
Is it the support given to him by the awakened one?
His son, who was weak and incompetent and had no use other than as a bargaining chip, really gave him a huge surprise.
“Boy, have you calmed down now?”
Jian Zhi sat still, and the manservant standing by took a few steps, quickly shook out the napkin, and spread it on Jian Zhi’s lap. Jian Zhi nodded slightly and expressed his gratitude.
“Then we can get down to business.”
Jian Luzhong was even more surprised. What did Jian Zhi want to talk to him about?
His face didn’t show anything, he still looked like a strict father, but his voice was obviously a little gentler.
Jian Luzhong asked: “Jian Zhi, what do you want to talk to me about?”
Jian Zhi didn’t speak, and kept a just right smile. For one second, two seconds, three seconds, he controlled the rhythm of the conversation and swept his eyes across their faces.
Jian Fang couldn’t help it anymore and raised his eyebrows: “Xiao Zhi!”
His voice was loud and his tone was stern. His sudden voice made the atmosphere in the banquet hall freeze again.
“What happened on the trial bench was that I failed to protect you and allowed you to be taken away by them. I will definitely…”
The crystal lamp suddenly shook, and countless transparent lamp beads collided together, making a noisy sound.
Ye Chenzhi tapped his knuckles and made a crisp sound on the table: “Protect him? It’s not your turn yet.”
Jian Fang was aroused by him and immediately wanted to stand up.
But he put his hand on the table, and just as he straightened his waist, he felt a heavy pressure, hitting his back hard, forcing him back to the chair again!
Is this… a superpower?
I don’t know where the power comes from, and there is no way for a human body to resist it…
A few drops of cold sweat broke out on Jian Fang’s forehead, and he subconsciously looked at Jian Zhi.
At such a sudden moment, Jian Zhi didn’t even care about them!
He was tilting his head and talking to the waiter beside him, with a gentle expression on his face. The waiter half-bent, listened carefully to his needs, and turned away after a moment.
Ye Chenzhi sat next to him, pressing his knuckles on the table and remaining silent.
If he didn’t move his fingers, the heavy pressure on Jian Fang would not disappear. Jian Luzhong remained silent and looked at his two sons silently, as if he didn’t feel the strange atmosphere at all, and even laughed.
In the jingling crystal lamp, Jian Zhi’s eyes finally drifted over, as if he had just noticed something strange here, and asked: “I just asked them to serve food, aren’t you hungry?”
Jian Fang wanted to speak and opened his mouth, but no sound came out of his throat.
That heavy pressure shackled every muscle in his body, and the ones on his neck were not spared. They were strangled tightly and lost their original functions.
Jian Luzhong observed Jian Fang, making no secret of his eyes, which looked at him as if he were an experiment.
He could tell that Jian Fang was suffering some kind of inhuman torture.
Based on his understanding of this adopted son, Jian Fang was the type who would rather die than show weakness.
In the beginning, he took a fancy to Jian Fang’s fierceness, so he fished him out of Warehouse Street and trained him to become his most capable assistant.
For Jian Luzhong, Jian Fang is more like a convenient tool than a child.
Just giving him a surname, some food, and his beautiful and useless son, Jian Fang was grateful and regarded the Jian family as his mission. It was really a good deal.
“Let’s serve, you should be hungry too.”
Jian Luzhong smiled at Jian Zhi, with a fatherly look on his face, and told some old stories that were not there yet.
“Jian Zhi, you have been in poor health since you were a child. You are a little weaker than ordinary children, and you look like a doll. At that time, I was thinking that this child does not have to do anything for the family in the future, as long as he is safe and healthy, and can be a happy little fool.”
“The family is in turmoil, how can I do nothing?”
Jian Zhi put on a fake smile, was so polite and polite that he didn’t hide it at all, and said straightforwardly:
“What was the family doing when I was brought to the trial? If you and Jian Fang can’t protect me, I will protect myself.”
The timing of his words was perfect. As soon as he finished speaking, the male servants carrying silver trays filed in.
In their hands was a carefully prepared meal. The silver plate was half-covered by a white napkin, and there was no unnecessary sound when it was opened.
The main dishes were presented with extreme restraint, the portions were precise, and the plates were elegantly prepared – the low-temperature and slow-roasted steaks were even in color, with a thin layer of grease on the surface, giving them a soft sheen under the light.
The side dishes are cut into neat geometric shapes, the blanched vegetables retain their full color, and the sauce outlines a rough texture on the edges as an embellishment.
Jian Zhi nodded slightly and signaled the valet to put down the main course.
On the white tablecloth, the steak lay quietly in the center of the silver plate. The surface color was darker and the edges were slightly tightened, showing the right burnt brown color. However, the center still retained a bright red color, forming a subtle contrast with the meticulous plating around it.
“I will attend the next round table meeting by myself.”
Jian Zhi ignored Jian Fang’s confused eyes, played with the silver fork in his hand, and said slowly:
“Jian Fang doesn’t need to stay in the central area anymore, I don’t need it.”
“Really?” Jian Luzhong looked at him with interest, “There are many dangers in the Round Table. Before, you could cry and beg me to let your brother accompany you.”
Ye Chenzhi’s eyes immediately looked over, clinging to Jian Zhi as if there was substance, as if questioning him, really?
Jian Zhi shrugged his shoulders: “Jian Lu Zhong, that’s alright. I don’t want to say anything too unpleasant.”
The implication is that he knows all about the things you do in private.
It’s polite enough not to argue with you now, but to just ask Jian Fang to return the power he deserves.
“You kid, how can you call daddy by his name?”
Jian Lu was wary of Jian Zhi’s sudden toughness and the unfathomable superpower next to him, so his attitude softened obviously. He spoke to him in a non-trivial manner and nodded.
“Isn’t it just to let your brother go? I agree, Jian Fang, you just pack your things at night. There are other things for you to do in District 12.”
Jian Fang was struck by lightning. He had been operating in the Round Table for several years and had accumulated a lot of his own power in order to compete with other heirs of the Jian family. As an adopted son, he should always think more about himself.
If he doesn’t do this, what qualifications does he have to stand next to Jian Zhi?
However, Jian Zhi turned out to be so heartless.
For a moment, he didn’t know whether it was the pain of losing power or the pain of losing his brother. They all attacked him.
“Do you really want me to leave?”
Jian Fang’s voice was hard, and the heavy pressure on him had obviously disappeared, but he felt like it was stuck in his throat, as if the air around him had been sucked out, and he didn’t know how to react.
“Xiao Zhi, what happened on the trial stage was just my negligence, which allowed them to seize the opportunity. If you are willing to wait for me a little longer, I will come to save you…”
Not this person.
This man who appeared beside Jian Zhi inexplicably, rescued him, held him in his arms, and kissed him with that expression.
“I would have been dead by the time you came to save me.”
Jian Zhi sneered and finally became impatient. With a clatter of the knife in his hand, he plunged into the bloody steak, splattering a small blood flower.
“Jian Fang, I’m only interested in the Round Table.”
“I will decide your position.”
