Upon hearing Zhang Zhi, along with keywords like high school classmates, Fang Yu vaguely remembered him.
The two were desk mates for a while.
Later on, Zhang Zhi fell for a female classmate, unfortunately, she liked Fang Yu, and this led to unhappiness between the two.
Once when Fang Yu was going to the restroom, Zhang Zhi even had someone block him, but instead of succeeding in beating him, it backfired and Fang Yu, having tough fists, knocked out one of his front teeth.
Later, after the college entrance exams, Zhang Zhi went abroad to study.
It was unexpected that they would meet again.
Seeing Zhang Zhi's smiling face, Fang Yu nodded and said, "So it's classmate Zhang."
Zhang Zhi smiled and said:
"After so many years, I didn't expect you to have become the Jiangzhou Iron Fist King, that's really impressive."
"It's just alright," Fang Yu humbly replied.
"My main purpose today was to see old classmates and also to apologize... I really didn't know about the incident eight years ago, nor could I help... If I had known the Sun Family was bullying an old classmate, I would have definitely made them pay," Zhang Zhi stated with righteous words.
It's just...
Why does his statement sound a bit awkward?
Yet, Fang Yu cheerfully said, "It's all in the past, not worth mentioning."
"That's true... By the way, have any other classmates not come?" Zhang Zhi smiled.
"I've lost touch with most, unfortunately." Fang Yu replied honestly.
After all, the path he had chosen was not something ordinary people could handle, it was better to have cut ties, pick one's own path and silently continue without dragging others into it.
Hearing this.
Zhang Zhi said, "I contacted a few old classmates before coming here, they should have arrived by now."
No sooner had he finished speaking.
Laughter and chatter emanated from outside the courtyard.
"Wow, I didn't expect our classmate Fang Yu to be the Jiangzhou Iron Fist King, how impressive!"
"Right, our old classmate is being too modest, making such a big show and not inviting us."
"Sigh, he's already an influential figure... Did you see the luxury cars at the entrance? I heard that the heads of Jiangzhou's top four corporations have come, you can imagine how high Fang Yu's status is."
Shortly after.
Three men walked slowly into the hall.
Zhang Zhi, not feeling out of place, smiled and said, "Li Long, Jiang Fei, Lv Tong, why did you just arrive now?"
"Zhang Zhi? It really is you! Damn, you're doing well, those clothes must cost tens of thousands!"
"Did you see the watch on his wrist? It's a Rolex!"
"Awesome!"
The three men's eyes lit up, and they immediately went forward to exchange pleasantries with Zhang Zhi.
After the pleasantries, the four of them then looked towards Fang Yu.
"Fang Yu, it's not cool of you not to tell us about such a big event," Lv Tong said with a smile.
"Exactly, are you looking down on us?"
Fang Yu shook his head repeatedly, saying:
"No, not at all, just been too busy and forgot... Please, have a seat."
Soon, four chairs were brought over.
Lv Tong laughed and said, "That's more like it."
Once the four sat down.
Zhang Zhi's gaze then fell on Fang Yu, completely unbothered by the other VIPs nearby, and said, "Fang Yu, what have you been up to all these years? You've done so well, classmates are envious!"
"Just messing around," Fang Yu replied.
"You're not still a hooligan, are you?" Zhang Zhi said with a teasing smile.
At this word 'hooligan' slipping out, Cai Runiao nearby glared and exclaimed, "Impudent!"
Zhang Zhi, unafraid, responded, "Hey, trying to scare me? You're too petty... After all, we're classmates, and we've both cursed at each other before. We speak like this because we're close, your subordinate here really is..."
Fang Yu raised his hand and waved at Cai Runiao.
Cai Runiao sulkily stepped back.
Zhang Zhi continued:
"I heard that these past years, you went into the mountains to train relentlessly and became a Martial Artist. Is it true or not?"
This time, before Fang Yu could speak,
A business tycoon next to them said: "Indeed, Mr. Fang's strength is at least at the Martial Arts Fourth Layer, and above Martial Arts Fifth Layer."
Upon hearing this,
Zhang Zhi showed a surprised expression and said: "Congratulations indeed..."
However...
Li Long next to him said: "Zhang Zhi, I remember you are also a Martial Artist, right? During the years your father sent you abroad, your girlfriend has been boasting daily on social media, saying you broke through to the Martial Arts Sixth Layer, is that true or false?"
As soon as these words came out,
The room burst into an uproar.
Especially those tycoons who just complimented Fang Yu, they all stared at Zhang Zhi, dumbfounded.
Martial Arts Sixth Layer?
Only the Lu Family possesses high-level experts of the Martial Arts Sixth Layer.
In a place like Jiangzhou, it's almost very hard to find a Sixth Layer expert.
They guessed that Zhang Zhi was a high-ranking Martial Artist, just didn't expect him to be at the Martial Arts Sixth Layer.
Zhang Zhi smiled and said:
"Little brother is not talented, I broke through to the Martial Arts Sixth Layer early last year."
"Damn! Truly awesome, Zhang Zhi, why didn't you say it sooner, I knew you could do it!"
"Zhang Zhi, I'll follow you from now on!"
"I'm so envious of you, handsome, and a high-rank Martial Artist, plus rich..."
Just as he finished speaking,
Zhang Zhi's expression turned serious, and he said: "Although we are classmates, we still need to watch our manners… otherwise, don't blame me for turning heartless."
"…" Lv Tong, Li Long, and Jiang Fei were all taken aback.
With such words said, how dare they speak like they did just now.
Zhang Zhi's gaze fell on Fang Yu and said: "Fang Yu, do you think I'm right? People are ranked differently. I think in this entire hall, the only one who can talk to me on equal footing is you."
The hall quieted down.
No one dared to speak.
If Zhang Zhi truly was at the Martial Arts Sixth Layer, then his status might even be higher than Fang Yu's.
Those business tycoons couldn't help but tremble, it turned out the real big shot was him!
No wonder he spoke so naturally and confidently.
He has the grounds and capital!
After Zhang Zhi said this, his eyes glanced and fell on Wenjun, who was sitting near Fang Yu. It's hard for Wenjun to go unnoticed with her distinguished demeanor.
"...This must be your younger sister, right? She's really beautiful! I apologize if I spoke out of turn earlier... If I'm not mistaken, she must be the Ye Family's daughter from one of Yanjing's three great Martial Arts Families, right?" Zhang Zhi asked with a smiling face.
Fang Yu said:
"Zhang Zhi, when did you become so nosy... I feel like you still hold a grudge against me, why so petty?"
"Not being petty, just asking."
Zhang Zhi stood up from his chair and stretched, "Younger sister, could you tell me what exactly you see in Fang Yu?"
Everyone was taken aback.
Only those old classmates knew that Zhang Zhi was making it difficult now.
They all knew that Zhang Zhi and Fang Yu had an unpleasant past.
Wenjun remained expressionless and did not answer. Because... in her eyes, the man before her was just like a jumping clown.
"About Fang Yu, I know him best. Back in school, he would frequently get into fights. When he was studying in Yanjing, he got expelled, and then in Jiangzhou, he got expelled again... Later he didn't finish school and started messing around with society! In today's terms, that's just a thug! So, I'm really curious, younger sister, how did you come to like him?"
