The Mad Guardian

In no time, the Liu Family, picking their teeth, wandered out of the Golden Island Hotel with great satisfaction as the staff saw them off with warm smiles.

Liu Qi held his head high, brimming with pride.

Walking behind him, Wang Rong was all smiles as well, carrying heaps of disposable plastic bags filled with the meals they had just packed.

Liu Fang, feeling embarrassed, said with disdain, "Mom, what do you need these things for? Just throw them away! It's so humiliating!"

"Hah! We can't throw them away! What a waste it would be! These are all good stuff, things we rarely get to eat!" Wang Rong rolled her eyes, definitely unwilling to discard anything.

At this moment, Liu Qi smiled and said, "Daughter, you're right. These things, just throw them away; it's indeed too humiliating!"

"Besides, our niece's husband has such a promising future and is friends with Li Kun. Do you think you'll ever worry about not having good stuff to eat in the future?"

Liu Fang chimed in, "Exactly! My cousin-in-law is so impressive; we probably won't even need to pay for meals here in the future. Mom, do you still think you need to pack food? Isn't that right, cousin?"

Qiu Qianyu gave a faint smile and said nothing. She knew all too well about her relatives and had nothing to add.

Just at this moment, Young Master Zhou suddenly strode towards the Liu Family and stopped them in their tracks.

Seeing this, Liu Qi immediately put on an air of superiority and said sarcastically, "Oh dear, Young Master Zhou, you're still here? It's really troublesome for you today, accompanying us here for a meal. Next time, when we come again, we'll call you along!"

Young Master Zhou let out a cold laugh, walked over, and said, "Uncle Liu, your whole family has been fooled. That Jiang Chuan is not friends with Li Kun at all; he's tricking you!"

"What?"

"Jiang Chuan isn't friends with Li Kun?"

"He tricked us? How is that possible!"

The Liu Family clearly didn't believe it, but Young Master Zhou was prepared and immediately took out his phone, playing a recording of a call he had just made.

"I asked a friend to inquire about Jiang Chuan and Li Kun's relationship. Listen to this, this is what Li Kun's personal assistant said himself."

Then, Young Master Zhou found the audio file, clicked on it, and immediately Li Kun's assistant's voice came through.

"Mr. Jiang and President Li are not friends…"

"How about that! Did you hear that? They're not really friends, just acquaintances!"

Young Master Zhou waved his phone, speaking with glee.

The Liu Family was stunned for a moment, Liu Qi blinked in disbelief and muttered to himself, "Is this true? Could it be that we were really fooled by Jiang Chuan?"

"You really were fooled! This voice is indeed Li Kun's assistant's voice. He was there during the meal earlier, you can surely recognize it!" Young Master Zhou said confidently, with a look of complete assurance.

The Liu Family listened carefully once more. After listening, Liu Qi nodded and said, "It really is the assistant's voice. He did speak earlier during the meal; it's definitely his voice."

Wang Rong also thought it over and confirmed.

"No doubt about it! That man's voice is very distinct, I agree. Yes, it's his voice!"

"Looks like we've truly been duped!"

"Indeed! Jiang Chuan really is a con artist!"

"That wretched bumpkin, to think he deceived us, and we valued him so highly!"

The Liu Family turned faces faster than a book could be flipped!

Liu Fang was even more direct and rude, saying to Qiu Qianyu with a snort, "Cousin, look at the man you've chosen, not only a bumpkin but also a liar! He actually fooled our whole family! Hmph, what a worthless piece!"
