"Chen Zheng, this Longmen is different from a bunch of Jianghu gangs!"
Zhao Zihan didn't expect Chen Zheng to speak so straightforwardly in front of Teng Yi.
Although she quickly opened her mouth to smooth things over, she also knew in her heart that what Chen Zheng said was the truth.
No matter how powerful Longmen is, it still cannot wash away the foundation of the world.
Although their security department has also taken over tasks related to Longmen, there is still a difference between black and white upon closer inspection.
So when faced with Chen Zheng's reason for rejection, although she could smooth things over, she didn't know how to persuade him.
"It's true that our Longmen foundation is dark, but considering your current situation, it's pretty good that you can get on board with us."
There was something in Teng Yi's words, but his tone was quite sincere.
Zhao Zihan quickly asked: "Chen Zheng's situation? President Teng, what news did you get that someone is going to be detrimental to Chen Zheng?"
Chen Zheng also looked over at this time, making Teng Yi look a little proud.
"You injured that girl named Yang Menghua from the Yang family, right?"
Teng Yi asked with a sneer: "Do you know who her master is?"
It's the Yang family again.
When Chen Zheng heard Teng Yi mentioning the Yang family, he had some guesses in his mind.
"What President Teng means is that the legendary ancient martial arts master Yang Xuhua will now target Chen Zheng to avenge his disciples?"
Zhao Zihan's face was gloomy, and there was some disbelief in his tone.
Although she did not support Sui Hui's Hongmen Banquet, she was present in person.
She is naturally familiar with Yang Menghua, a member of the Yang family invited by Sui Hui.
"In a martial arts fight, if you dare to take action, you will have to bear the consequences. Based on my understanding of the Yang family, they should not cause trouble in private..."
Zhao Zihan spoke uncertainly, but Tengyi immediately snorted coldly.
"The Yang family are all hypocrites who are just trying to gain fame! Any ancient martial arts family that behaves upright is bullshit!"
His excited performance made Chen Zheng a little curious.
Obviously, Tengyi's Longmen has some conflicts with the Yang family, so now he wants to force himself to join the gang to fight against the Yang family.
After understanding this point, Chen Zheng wanted to refuse again, but Teng Yi immediately said: "Boy, to be honest, you have no reason to refuse me now. You have completely destroyed that girl from the Yang family.
I won’t let you go just like that.”
He turned his head to Zhao Zihan again, his expression extremely solemn.
"Miss Zhao is from the Imperial Capital, so she should have some understanding of the strength behind the Yang family, right?"
"In addition to the Yang family, there are also the three major sects that support it, as well as forces from other countries. Which of these people is easy to deal with? Do you think Chen Zheng alone can handle it and live a peaceful life?"
As soon as Teng Yi said these words, Zhao Zihan could only grit his teeth helplessly.
She knew the power of the imperial capital very well. With the facts in front of her, if the Yang family really wanted to take revenge, even if it was just a little bit of encouragement, there would not be a few people who would trouble Chen Zheng for them.
Zhao Zihan looked embarrassed, which could be considered as confirmation of Teng Yi's words.
Chen Zheng sat aside, frowning.
Seeing this, Teng Yi's face became even more proud.
"President Teng, I have conflicts with the Yang family, but it doesn't necessarily mean we will fight to the death."
"You are trying so many tricks to intimidate me now, but you just want to fool me into being tied to your Longmen. It seems that you have been suppressed by the Yang family and the forces behind him, right?"
Chen Zheng glanced at Teng Yi and immediately exposed his disguise.
As expected, Teng Yi's face paused slightly, showing some guilt.
Zhao Zihan finally realized his intentions and secretly thought that this old fox was indeed very thoughtful.
At the same time, she was also surprised that Chen Zheng, as an insider, could still be so clear-headed and directly see through Teng Yi's purpose.
"You are right. It was only because of the Yang family's insidious suppression that I was able to invite you to join Longmen."
Tengyi turned his eyes and forced himself to look at Chen Zheng calmly.
"No matter what, my analysis just now always makes sense."
"If you want to live in peace, you must have power and resources to support you. With an additional identity, many things will be much easier to handle."
Chen Zheng did not deny this. Based on his understanding of Teng Yi today, he still couldn't help but hesitate.
Seeing this, Teng Yi directly gritted his teeth and said: "If our Longmen is suppressed and annexed by the Yang family, the Yang family's power will inevitably grow much stronger."
"When they want to take action against you, there will definitely be more troublesome forces involved."
"Chen Zheng, you have to think about it!"
Teng Yi has basically lowered his stance to the lowest level, even stating the assumption that Longmen will be annexed by the Yang family, which shows his sincerity in inviting Chen Zheng to join the association.
"President Teng, please sit down for a moment while I talk to Chen Zheng."
Zhao Zihan was silent for a moment, and then pulled Chen Zheng out alone first.
"I think you shouldn't refuse Tengyi."
Zhao Zihan is not a procrastinator and speaks her mind directly.
"Do you also think that the Yang family will take action against me?"
Chen Zheng was not surprised by her suggestion, but he still asked.
Zhao Zihan did not hide it, but solemnly told the news she knew.
"First point, the Yang family's power in the imperial capital is not low, and it is not impossible to take action against you in Yuncheng."
"Second point, I know something about the Yang Menghua you injured. Her status in the Yang family is indeed not low, and she has always been a disciple that her master attaches great importance to."
These two points are enough to attack Chen Zheng.
Zhao Zihan comes from such a big family and knows very well the thoughts of these people.
In fact, before she met Chen Zheng, she naturally felt that all extremely outstanding young people should be gathered in major families.
"Chen Zheng, I don't have any other bad intentions."
Zhao Zihan considered the words and said with some embarrassment: "As long as the Yang family has the slightest intention of suppressing a person, then that person will definitely not have good results."
"Unless there is a strong enough force behind him to support the deterrence, as Tengyi said just now, the Yang family's vassal scoundrels alone are enough to continuously cause trouble and make people uneasy..."
Zhao Zihan stared at Chen Zheng's expression, fearing that he would be angry because of what she said.
But Chen Zheng just nodded calmly and pushed open the office door with his backhand.
"I can agree to your invitation and be the helmsman of Longmen."
Before he finished speaking, Tengyi immediately laughed happily.
But before he could relax his brows for a while, Chen Zheng continued: "But, I have a condition."
"condition?"
Tengyi was stunned for a moment, but immediately smiled and nodded.
"We have no shortage of funds and manpower at Longmen. You can..."
"I only have one condition, and that is, leave me alone."
"No, I don't care about you!?"
Tengyi, who was still happy at first, was almost stunned by Chen Zheng's words.
"Although you are the president, if you want to order me from a high position or even interfere with my other personal matters, I will never listen."
Chen Zheng sat down casually, his tone full of irreversible meaning.
"President Teng, don't mind, he..."
Zhao Zihan understood what Chen Zheng meant by making this request, but she still felt that what he said was too rude.
Unexpectedly, Tengyi only hesitated for a moment and nodded directly.
"As long as you can unite all the forces in our Longmen, I don't have to interfere with whatever you want to do."
The dignified Longmen President, so easily bowed his head and agreed to Chen Zheng's somewhat excessive request?
Zhao Zihan was so surprised that she couldn't speak.
