Chapter 244 You Should Feel Lucky to Be Xiaoyue's Father!
Liang Zhengdao drove to Ling City as soon as he could, and as the evening approached six o'clock, he finally arrived at the police precinct.
In the interrogation room, he saw Liang Wenshuo with a bruised and swollen face.
"Who did this?" Liang Zhengdao slammed his hand on the metal table, bellowing angrily.
The policeman raised an eyebrow and said, "Mr. Liang, your son brought seventy to eighty thugs to Mr. Li's shop to make trouble and even threatened to smash Mr. Li's shop. Now your son is being charged with illegal assembly and intentional assault."
"Mr. Li? Is it that Li Xiaoyao?" Upon hearing it was Li Xiaoyao again, Liang Zhengdao immediately raged, "A mere security guard dares to lay hands on my son? So what if my son beat him up? Who does he think he is?"
The policeman glanced at him with a strange look and chuckled, "Mr. Liang, it seems you are not aware of Mr. Li's influence. It's better for your son to explain it to you in detail. I'll leave you two alone for now."
The policeman then left, leaving only Liang Zhengdao and his son in the interrogation room.
Liang Zhengdao sat down and looked at his son, Liang Wenshuo, with a bruised face eliciting sympathy, feeling a stab of pain in his heart.
Even he, as a father, couldn't bear to hit him, yet now, his own son had been beaten to such a state.
"Wenshuo, rest assured, if Li Xiaoyao dared to hit you, I will certainly avenge you."
Liang Wenshuo hurriedly shook his head and said, "Dad, you mustn't offend him. Our Liang Family can't afford to provoke him."
Liang Zhengdao's eyes widened as he exclaimed, "What? Wenshuo, what are you talking about? He's just a petty bodyguard; how could he be compared to our Liang Family? Don't worry, you must be frightened by his beating, but with dad here, no one can bully you."
Liang Wenshuo shook his head, his face filled with fear, and said, "Dad, it's not like that at all. Li Xiaoyao really has a significant backing. He knows Chairman Ji, and even Old Cheng is his close friend. Zhou Tianhao of Ling City treats him as an honored guest. Old Cheng has already said that he wants me to pay for my actions."
"What about Chairman Ji? Just one phone call from your grandfather, and even Chairman Ji would have to show him some respect," asserted Liang Zhengdao. He knew the relationship between Chairman Ji and Li Xiaoyao was closer than ordinary, but in his view, despite Chairman Ji's influence, his Liang Family was not to be trifled with either.
"This Old Cheng you speak of—who is he?" inquired Liang Zhengdao suddenly.
With a shiver, Liang Wenshuo replied, "The Grand Marshal of the Lu Province Military District, Cheng Dongliang."
"What!" Liang Zhengdao's body went limp, and his hand trembled as he dropped the cigarette onto the ground.
Seeing his father's expression, Liang Wenshuo immediately pleaded in alarm, "Dad, you must save me. I don't want to go to jail."
"Calm down, there's definitely a way," Liang Zhengdao reassured him a few words, then suddenly stood up and said, "Wenshuo, you stay here for a while. I'll go find someone now. Rest assured, I won't let you go to jail."
Walking out of the interrogation room, Liang Zhengdao's mind was blank.
How could Li Xiaoyao be connected to Old Cheng?
If he indeed had a good relationship with Old Cheng, then his words about wiping out the Liang Family weren't just a bluff.
The Liang Family was indeed powerful, but only in Muze City.
But Old Cheng was the Grand Marshal of the military district, and not just any district but the entirety of Lu Province.
Just with one word from Old Cheng, he could cut off all business opportunities for the Liang Family, sending them back to the days before their liberation.
…
"Hello, Xiaoyue." Li Xiaoyao, who was in the midst of cultivation, suddenly received a call from Zhu Xiaoyue.
Zhu Xiaoyue said, "My dad is coming home tonight, and you are coming home with me."
Li Xiaoyao asked, "Why should I go if your dad doesn't like me?"
"Hmph, it doesn't matter if he doesn't like you. I like you, and that's enough," Zhu Xiaoyue replied. "Liang Wenshuo came to my house looking for me yesterday. This matter has to be resolved, and I want my dad to know that I have a boyfriend. You have to come, or don't ever come to see me again."
Li Xiaoyao pondered; indeed, this issue needed to be addressed.
As for the Liang Family, he had never taken them seriously.
And as for Zhu Haishan, all that was needed was to let him understand his own power, and surely Zhu Haishan would no longer object to his relationship with Zhu Xiaoyue.
"Wait for me at home, I'll be right there."
After hanging up the call, Li Xiaoyao emerged from the Spirit Stone Vein and drove towards the Zhu Family.
"Dad, Xiaoyao will be coming over later. Please be a little kinder when you talk to him," Zhu Xiaoyue walked into the living room and said to Zhu Haishan, who was watching the news.
"Li Xiaoyao?" Ever since the last incident, Zhu Haishan had begun to doubt Li Xiaoyao's identity.

This Li Xiaoyao seems to be more than just a simple bodyguard. Even Chairman Ji stood up for him, which makes it worthy of reconsideration regarding his relationship with Zhu Xiaoyue.
However, even though Li Xiaoyao knows Chairman Ji, when compared to the Liang Family, the latter is still somewhat better.
Moreover, Li Xiaoyao's personality is far too arrogant. Last time he even audaciously claimed that he would destroy the Liang Family, truly a case of the recklessness of youth, not knowing his own limits.
Zhu Haishan took off his glasses and asked, "Xiaoyue, how much do you know about this Li Xiaoyao?"
Zhu Xiaoyue said, "I know everything about him."
Zhu Haishan smiled and shook his head. His daughter had a carefree personality and was somewhat negligent; he feared she didn't know Li Xiaoyao as well as he did.
"Tell Daddy, what kind of person is this Li Xiaoyao, and what's his family situation like?"
Zhu Xiaoyue blurted out, "Xiaoyao is brave, very gentle, and remains calm in the face of trouble."
"What about his family's situation? What do his parents do?"
Zhu Xiaoyue opened her mouth and said somewhat embarrassedly, "I didn't ask."
"Xiaoyue, I don't oppose you dating a boyfriend, but you should at least find out his family background clearly. Otherwise, what will you do if he deceives you?"
Zhu Xiaoyue immediately said in surprise, "Dad, you're agreeing to my relationship with Xiaoyao?"
...
Li Xiaoyao soon drove to the front door and rang the doorbell. Zhu Xiaoyue ran over to open the door with little steps.
"You're here, come on in." Zhu Xiaoyue had a smile on her face and was very happy.
Li Xiaoyao entered the living room with her and saw Zhu Haishan, calling out, "Uncle Zhu."
Zhu Haishan didn't have a good impression of Li Xiaoyao. He nodded and said, "Hmm, take a seat."
Mrs. Zhu brought over tea and fruit, looking at Li Xiaoyao with a smile.
Unlike Zhu Haishan, Mrs. Zhu grew fonder and more pleased with Li Xiaoyao the more she looked at him.
Zhu Haishan lit a cigarette and asked, "What do your parents do?"
Li Xiaoyao replied indifferently, "I'm an orphan."
Zhu Haishan was taken aback for a moment, and Zhu Xiaoyue and Mrs. Zhu by his side were also stunned.
An orphan? Without father or mother?
Zhu Haishan frowned, an orphan? Then how did he get involved with Chairman Ji?
Could it be that his relationship with Chairman Ji was not as close as he had thought?
It was probably because Chairman Ji had received a complaint call, that's why he came over in such a hurry.
It must be so.
With this thought in mind, Zhu Haishan's smile faded slightly, and he said, "I'm not against Xiaoyue dating, but her future husband definitely cannot be a bodyguard."
This statement was quite clear, practically openly disapproving of their relationship.
Zhu Xiaoyue, upon hearing this, was stunned for a moment and in a rush said, "Dad, you just agreed to let me date Xiaoyao. Why are you going back on your word now?"
Zhu Haishan said emphatically, "Xiaoyue, I'm doing this for your happiness. You're still young and easily deceived, but Daddy won't deceive you."
Upon hearing this, Li Xiaoyao gave Zhu Haishan a cold look and asked, "May I ask Uncle Zhu, how have I deceived Xiaoyue?"
Zhu Haishan waved his hand impatiently, "I don't want to talk to you. Go back and don't contact our Xiaoyue again."
Li Xiaoyao sat unflinchingly and said with a firm voice, "You should be grateful that you're Xiaoyue's father."
Zhu Haishan's face changed dramatically, he snorted angrily and glared at Zhu Xiaoyue, "This is the boyfriend you chose!"
