Chapter 817: Hope to Become a First-Rank Family
Chen Xuan sneered inwardly; how could he not see Zhang Jun's little scheme?
Saying such righteous words, yet wasn't it after seeing his tremendous power that Zhang Jun chose to pledge his allegiance?
To put it plainly, it's about solidifying his belief, wanting to latch onto Chen Xuan's influence to gain more benefits for himself and the Zhang Family.
Of course, he didn't mind Zhang Jun doing so because he was using the Zhang Family as well to act as his front men, spearheading the campaign against the Xu Family.
"Uncle Zhang, I'm very pleased with your attitude,"
"As for past transgressions, let's not dwell on them. Everyone makes mistakes when they're muddled."
"As long as you focus on doing a good job from now on, the future will naturally be bright."
Chen Xuan said with a light chuckle, which was equivalent to giving Zhang Jun a sweet reward.
Zhang Jun immediately looked ecstatic, "Chen Xuan, don't worry. From now on, I'll be with you, doing whatever you ask without a second word."
"Alright, then let's head back first." Chen Xuan smiled and walked away from the Xu family mansion.
Once they got in the car, Zhang Jun immediately asked, "So, what are your plans next?"
"Judging by the recent questions, while the Xu Family did not directly get involved, they tacitly allowed Xu Chengliang to act."
"Without the Xu Family backing him, Xu Chengliang wouldn't dare to openly attack your father."
Chen Xuan nodded slightly, "You don't need to worry; I'll make the arrangements myself."
"Just remember one thing: the Xu Family will definitely pay the price in the future, and that will be the Zhang Family's opportunity to rise."
The implication was clear: it was about allowing the Zhang Family to replace the Xu Family and become a first-class family.
Zhang Jun felt even more excited and thrilled internally, even to the point where he felt his blood boiling.
He couldn't wait to launch a full-scale war against the Xu Family right now, wipe them out, and let the Zhang Family rise to power.
But all this depended on Chen Xuan's decision; he couldn't make the call, nor was he any match for the Xu Family.
After returning to the Zhang Family, Chen Xuan left directly without entering the house.
Only Zhang Jun returned to the main hall.
Zhang Dehou was waiting in the main hall for him, and Zhang Xiangyang and Zhang Yan were there too.
"Jun'er, you went to the Xu Family with Chen Xuan... how did it go?" Zhang Dehou quickly asked.
Zhang Jun beamed, "Dad, don't worry. The Xu Family can't do anything to Chen Xuan!"
"It was only today that I realized Chen Xuan is truly something else! So many of the Xu Family's guards couldn't even touch a hair on his head!"
"Frankly speaking, if Chen Xuan wanted to destroy the Xu Family today, it would be a piece of cake!"
Oh?
Zhang Dehou exclaimed in surprise, "So, the Luo Family's eldest son treated Chen Xuan with such respect because they knew about his strength and didn't dare to act rashly before him."
"It wasn't because Chen Xuan had done some favor for the Luo Family, taking them as his backing."
"Exactly!" Zhang Jun nodded, "I used to think that way, but today I realized how completely wrong I was before!"
"If I had known how formidable Chen Xuan was, I would've arranged for Yan'Er to marry him through an arranged engaged when she was young, by all means."
"Alas, it's too late to say anything now! A single misstep, and we've lost Chen Xuan as our golden opportunity!"
Zhang Yan also felt uneasy inside, having regretted more than once, but unfortunately, there's no medicine for regret on this Earth.
"Yan'Er, how is your relationship with Zhu Feng?" Zhang Jun asked softly.
"Not great," Zhang Yan shook her head slightly, "Ever since what happened last time, Zhu Feng seems to have reservations seeing me, and I can't muster any interest in him."
"In short... it's been awkward. If I don't call him, he doesn't call me either; there's no affection between us anymore, I'd say."
Zhang Jun said dismissively, "If you can't be with Zhu Feng, there's no need to force yourself."
"But if I really break up with Zhu Feng, then what? Chen Xuan isn't giving me a chance anyway." Zhang Yan lamented, feeling quite helpless.
Hehe...
Zhang Jun laughed aloud, "What if one day our Zhang Family reached the level of the Luo Family and Xu Family?"
"Wouldn't you then be the daughter of a first-class family, and Zhu Feng, just the young master of a second-class family, would be reaching up to pursue you."
What?
Zhang Yan's eyes widened instantly, staring blankly at her father Zhang Jun, not understanding what he meant.
Zhang Xiangyang also looked puzzled and confused, "Dad, why did you suddenly say that?"
Even Zhang Dehou's eyes were shifting unpredictably, "Jun'er, could it be... Chen Xuan said something to you?"
"Is there hope for our Zhang Family to become a first-class family? You can't joke about something like this!"
