An ordinary leader of a superfunction possessor became the husband of Xing Feng and the eldest grandson of the old base commander of the Coast Base. Yun Che's identities were reveled one by one, changing everyone's impression on him. Not to mention the fact that in his squad, there were also sons and grandsons of the Ye Family and Shu Family as well as the son of the captain of Dragon Squad. Just like its name, no one was able to surpass Peak in terms of their background.
The most important thing was that, obviously they could compete with others using their background, but their power was the critical factor that established their reputation. An SSS-level task was not a big deal for Peak and with such a background and such strength, no one present dared to underestimate them, including the country's nominal president Liu Xizhao!
"Everyone, welcome to my daughter's wedding. Please be seated. And when the wedding is over, I will ask my daughter and son-in-law to personally give you a toast."
It took Liu Xizhao some effort to calm down and he smiled to cut off their catch up. All of them turned their heads in unison, smiling as if they were mocking his self-righteousness, and as if they were disdaining what he said. Tan Weiye quietly tugged Yun Che, and walked forward, "President Liu, is there any misunderstanding?
"What do you mean?"
Liu Xizhao's eyelids twitched. Only then did he remember who Yun Yao was. He had previously paid excessive attention to Leng Yehan so that he had overlooked the fact that Leng Yehan was not the only one who was messing around at this wedding. If people knew how the Zhou Family treated Yun Yao, then their future in the Capital Base would be ruined for good, and the Liu Family would also have a hard time.
Before this he would never think that Yun Che and the others had the gut to do such a thing, but now that their status had changed again, and Senior Tan had even come in person, then there was nothing they wouldn't dare to do. For the sake of the harmony of the two bases, even if he dared to give an order to kill Tan Jianting and his grandson, other major families would never allow it.
"It means that we are not here for the wedding. The Zhou Family is heartless, monstrous, and they even sent killers to assassinate my sister and brother so that they could establish a close relationship with you, President Liu. If we don't end the feud between the Yun Family and the Zhou Family, your wedding is not going to continue."
Tan Weiye came from a military family, and he grew up in the army. He was always tough and now he was aggressive and domineering. He didn't even try to hide how he distained Liu Xizhao.
"What… what are you talking about? How could we possibly…"
Zhou Wang reflexively retorted, but as she met the gaze of Tan Weiye and Yun Che and saw the mockery in their eyes, she was so appalled that she couldn't continue. Meanwhile, Zhou Zhijun, who was originally on the stage, ignored Liu Yuan's attempt to stop him and strode down, leaving her alone on the stage, "What do you mean? Say it clearly!"
Pushing away his mother, Zhou Zhijun looked at Tan Weiye with a sullen face. His parents not only set him up, but also went behind his back to hurt Yao and the others. So that was why he was now dead to Yao? If that was the case… Zhou Zhijun didn't dare to think about it anymore. When he temporarily left his wife and son for his parents, he thought that Che and the others were doing excellent, so Yao and Chenchen would be safe at least for the time being, and that he would be able to seek them without any worries when his business in the capital was settled. But he had never dreamed that the temporary period would turn into eternity, and he owed so much to Yao and their son in this life. However, now according to what they said…Zhou Zhijun did not dare to imagine, if his parents really did something behind his back, how could he, as a man, ever face Yun Yao, Yun Che, Yun Cheng and the world.
"Ye, leave the rest to us."
Stopping Tan Weiye from continuing, Yun Che and Yun Cheng stepped forward as every guest inside the venue looked at them with eyes wide open. All those present were at least a representative of a superfunction squad, so none of them were stupid. From their attitude and their words, it was not difficult for them to figure out that the there was a serious feud between the Yun Family and the Zhou Family.
"Che, Cheng…"
As he saw them, Zhou Zhijun subconsciously blurted out. These two brothers of Yao had always been understanding, and their support was one of the reasons why he managed to marry Yao. He had always treated them as his own brothers, and never had he imagined that one day they would stand against each other, much less for Yao.
"General Zhou, you're not someone who could call us Che and Cheng."
Standing in front of him, Yun Che coldly corrected, while Yun Cheng, who stood next to him, pursed his lips and continued, "General Zhou, do you think that the three of us are easy target for bullying because we've lost our parents?"
"No, I have never thought of it that way. You ought to know that I've always treated you as my own brothers…"
At these words, Zhou Zhijun hurriedly refuted. He was sorry to Yun Yao, and he was too shameful to meet them again, but he was always genuine to them. Watching their reaction, the guests present were more puzzled, having no idea what was between them. The Zhou Family was the only ones who knew exactly what happened, but meanwhile their faces were pale. Which of them hadn't taken part in bullying Yun Yao in them past? And which of them had actually showed any respect to Yun Yao and her brothers? Before today they never felt that they had done anything wrong. Now that the siblings had the power to overthrow the Zhou Family, their attitudes had completely changed, and they finally knew what fear meant.
"How dare we to claim we are related to you, General Zhou? Otherwise, I'm afraid that one day some killers or terrorists will show up again. Don't you think so?"
Without giving Zhou Zhijun a chance to speak, Yun Che mockingly hooked his lips, looking towards Zhou Mingyuan and his wife as well as Lin Xiaoxuan who was standing with them. The three of them clenched their teeth. If it were in the past, they would have already dashed forward and cursed, and they might even get into a fight. However, now the status of Yun Che and the others had changed tremendously, and they were no longer orphans who were at their mercy.
Following his gaze and looking back at his parents and sister-in-law, Zhou Zhijun asked in a low voice, "What have you done again?"
Zhou Zhijun didn't have a moment of suspicion towards what Yun Che said. He wasn't stupid. He knew what kind of people Yun Che and his brother and sister were, and what kind of person his parents were. Otherwise, he wouldn't have warned them to stay away from Yun Yao in the first place.
"What were we supposed to do? They were in the southwest, and we were in the capital. We didn't even do anything…"
Facing his son's angry and painful glare, Zhou Mingyuan said as calmly as possible, but Yun Che and the others would not give him another chance to argue.
"Yeah, you didn't do anything. Last July, your good daughter-in-law Lin Xiaohan hired a killer from Bi'an to assassinate my brother and he almost succeeded. In the months followed, strange superfunction possessors kept ambushing us without any reason. They didn't target at only me and my brother, but my sister and Chenchen, who was only three at the time. If they were our enemy, how would they try to kill a three-year-old kid? According to the words of the killer from Bi'an and the past between us, it is obvious who sent those people, isn't it?"
Of course, Liu Xizhao also played part in it, but Yun Cheng did not mention him for now. He wanted to, but he couldn't. They had to take it one step at a time. The Liu Family and the Xiao Family had been established in the capital for so many years that they were too powerful to be beaten by only a few words. The only target they had today was the Zhou Family.
"You…Xiaohan?"
Zhou Mingyuan was shocked, but then he quickly looked towards Lin Xiaohan as if he was stunned. Obviously, he was trying to blame everything on her. However, what he didn't know was that Yun Che and the others actually had no idea that he had also sent people to the Southwest Base to kill them, but his reaction at this moment clearly told them that.
"No, I didn't. Mom, Dad, Zhijun, you have to believe me. I hold no grudge against them, so how could I spend so much money to hire killers from Bi'an to kill them?"
When she heard the word "Bi'an", Lin Xiaohan panicked. Not to mention that Yun Che was not someone she could mess up with now, even they were still those powerless orphans like they used to me, she couldn't admit it in public.
"No grudges? You hate me for turning your son into a zombie that time after I left with my sister because of what you did to her. Lin Xiaohan, you are just unbelievable. Don't you know why I left with only my sister and Chenchen?"
"You…"
Obviously not expecting him to say it in public, Lin Xiaohan's face was distorted. Zhou Zhijun suddenly turned to Yun Che, "What do you mean by "that time"? Che…Yun Che you, make it clear. What do you mean by what they did to Yao. When I came back home to pick them up, they just told me that Yao…. Yao had left with you."
Almost blurting out that his mother told him that Yun Yao had been eaten by zombies, Zhou Zhijun hastily changed his words. However, a lot of people noticed how he called Yun Yao. A man calling a woman in such an intimate way was obviously enough to prove their relationship, wasn't it? That chubby boy in Senior Tan's arm actually looked a bit like Zhou Zhijun, didn't he, though if you didn't look closely, he looked more like his two uncles.
"General Zhou, what a filial son you are. Your mother, your sister-in-law and your sister told you that my sister and Chenchen had been bitten to death by zombies, right? You don't have to wonder why I guessed it right away. Since you married my sister, when have those of the Zhou Family ever showed any respect to us? We've already come to this point, General Zhou, you won't still deceive yourself to think that your transfer to the capital is a coincidence, will you? Don't forget, the mother of your sister-in-law came from a family that was very powerful in the capital before the doomsday. Do you know what kind of a life my sister lived when you served the army in the capital all those years? Your dear mother and sister called my sister to the Zhou Family every now and then to teach her rules, and they never stopped cursing her or abusing her. Chenchen was also bullied by your precious nephews and nieces. They secretly choked him and beat him. Do you remember how old Chenchen was at that time? Have you ever thought about how hard it was for my sister and Chenchen? So as not to put you in a pickle, has my sister ever complained to you about her suffering? General Zhou, you are their biological son, so do you really have no idea what kind of person they are?"
Yun Che's questioning was mixed with mockery, and his words became sharper and sharper. Zhou Zhijun felt his legs weak and he took several steps back before he could stabilize himself. Pain crawled on to his face. He closed his eyes. He could no longer lie to himself. Yes, he knew there was no way that his parents were going to treat Yao nicely, especially his mother who was always mean and unreasonable. However, every time Yao talked to him on the phone, she said that they were doing well and her mother didn't make things difficult for them, so he subconsciously glorified his own family, lying to himself that they had seen the good in Yao and had welcomed her into the family…
He knew that he wouldn't be able to keep his parents and the woman he loved at peace, but he still naively wanted to strike a balance between them. The result of turning a blind eye to the actual situation was that the woman he loved and his only son were living in misery. He had been lying to himself for so many years and Yun Che suddenly exposed his lie in such a circumstance. Zhou Zhijun could no longer lie to himself. As early as when he agreed to transfer to the capital, he had already failed Yun Yao and their son. He was not even qualified to love her.
