Chapter 697: Chapter 697

Below is the translated text:

"Been waiting for a long time, huh?" Xu Mengyan’s tone carried a hint of resentment.

"Are you deliberately avoiding me?" Xu Mengyan asked again.

Zhang Yang slightly shook his head. "Not really. I went to a few places and met some people today."

Xu Mengyan was curious. "Who did you meet? Men or women?"

"Both, I guess. You came looking for me for something, right? Let’s talk in your car," Zhang Yang suggested.

Truth be told, Zhang Yang had indeed been purposely avoiding Xu Mengyan before, as he didn’t want to hear her urging him to reconcile.

But the situation was different now. Zhang Yang had already made up his mind.

Seeing Zhang Yang act so casually, Xu Mengyan was momentarily stunned, but still led him back to her car.

"Zhang Yang, I won’t beat around the bush. Can you go easy on Guo Da in this matter between you two?"

Zhang Yang wasn’t surprised at all but didn’t rush to answer her question. Instead, he asked in return, "Tell me, if I insist on pushing Xu Guangzhi to investigate thoroughly, does Guo Da have any chance of getting out?"

Xu Mengyan looked at Zhang Yang with a mix of surprise and disbelief.

After hesitating for a moment, she spoke truthfully, "That would depend entirely on Guo Qiyu’s attitude."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yang chuckled. "So you’re saying Guo Qiyu does have the power to get him out. If that’s the case, why bother reconciling with me?"

"Because the cost of reconciling is the smallest," Xu Mengyan added.

"I see. Well, since that’s the case, I won’t reconcile with Guo Qiyu," Zhang Yang declared firmly.

Xu Mengyan’s face changed slightly. She tried to explain the intricacies of the situation to Zhang Yang.

But Zhang Yang interrupted her first, "I just met with Guo Da earlier. Take a look for yourself."

The video was something Zhang Yang had specifically prepared for Xu Mengyan, but of course, it was intended for Guo Qiyu as well.

Xu Mengyan was startled and immediately grabbed his phone to watch the clip carefully.

After a moment, she angrily burst out, "What a goddamn idiot."

As she cursed, she sent the video to her own phone. She needed to give Guo Qiyu an explanation and let him see just how stupid Guo Da was.

After finishing her actions, Xu Mengyan let out a sigh.

"Zhang Yang, I didn’t expect you’d actually be willing to give him a chance. Too bad though, that idiot’s beyond saving."

Zhang Yang replied with a chuckle, "I only gave him a chance out of respect for you. Otherwise, no matter what kind of mercenaries the Guo Family sends, I wouldn’t be afraid."

Xu Mengyan stared at him in shock, "How do you know about that?"

Zhang Yang made a gesture to keep quiet. "Secret!"

Now she was truly stunned. Zhang Yang actually knew about the Guo Family’s background.

No wonder he’d asked whether Guo Da had any chance of being freed through Guo Qiyu.

"Zhang Yang, I don’t know how you found out, but you absolutely cannot let this slip to anyone. Though the family’s power operates abroad, the things they do are unimaginable to normal people. Neither Guo Qiyu nor I want to expose the family’s background."

"That’s also one of the reasons Guo Qiyu wants to reconcile with you. Utilizing the family’s resources might rescue Guo Da, but the aftermath of handling all the consequences could exhaust a person to death."

Zhang Yang said nonchalantly, "That’s out of my hands. Tell Guo Qiyu that I’ve already given him an opportunity. If he doesn’t want to take it, that’s his choice."

"Moving forward, if Guo Da ever does manage to get out, he better not mess with me—or it’ll be a fight to the death."

Zhang Yang understood that his conflict with the Guo Family was now irreparable, but he couldn’t afford to back down at this point.

An international financial tycoon? Mercenaries? So what? Zhang Yang refused to believe they’d dare dispatch a large team of mercenaries to Dragon Country.

Come on, do they really think Dragon Country is their playground?

Xu Mengyan chuckled helplessly, "Don’t worry. Guo Qiyu wouldn’t dare do that, not while I’m here."

"Sis-in-law, I truly apologize. It seems I’ve caused you a lot of trouble too."

Xu Mengyan rolled her eyes at Zhang Yang. "At least you know. It’s late now; I should head back and talk to Guo Qiyu."

"How about one more round before you leave?" Zhang Yang asked with a fiery gaze.

"Next time. You’ve been with that little nurse and that married woman all day—your body won’t be able to keep up," Xu Mengyan teased.

Zhang Yang looked surprised, "How do you even know that?"

"Haha. I was bored earlier, so I swung by to visit the nurse. That girl’s too naïve—it only took a bit of coaxing for her to spill everything."

"So? Seduced another young girl and took her first time. How does it feel?"

Zhang Yang chuckled, replying to her teasing, "Feels as tight as with you, Sis-in-law."

"Oh, please! I wasn’t a virgin, unlike her. But honestly, your appetite is outrageous. That Li Lei—she’s got to be around forty, isn’t she?"

"She’s well-maintained, sure, but you really don’t turn anyone down."

Zhang Yang laughed lightly at her words. "Forty is actually a woman’s prime. But how on earth do you know about Li Lei?"

"Pei Yuyan was just here," Xu Mengyan said with a smirk.

Zhang Yang suddenly froze. So it was the gossip queen. But when did she find out about him and Li Lei?

Pei Yuyan’s talent for gossip was unrivaled—a real walking intel agent.

And Xu Mengyan was just as impressive. Hooking the nurse was understandable—the girl was too simple.

But Pei Yuyan? For her to be outmaneuvered by Mengyan in the gossip game was surprising indeed.

"How much do you know?" Zhang Yang asked, slightly nervous.

"Haha, what are you nervous about? I don’t know THAT much," Mengyan said with a smug look, clearly still annoyed about Zhang Yang withholding his secrets earlier.

After chatting a while longer, Mengyan left to return home.

Guo Qiyu was already home too. Now that Guo Qiyu was suspended from his position, he actually had time to stay at home.

But Mengyan knew that if it weren’t for his concerns about Guo Da’s situation, Guo Qiyu would either be with his mistress or spending time with his illegitimate children outside.

"You’re back? Did you see Zhang Yang?" Guo Qiyu asked directly.

Mengyan nodded. "I saw him, and he agreed to give Guo Da a chance."

Guo Qiyu immediately brightened, showering her with compliments. "You’re amazing, wife. Truly impressive."

"Don’t get too excited yet. I haven’t finished speaking," Mengyan said, shifting her tone.

"What? Does Zhang Yang have conditions? That’s normal. What does he want—money?"

"Zhang Yang doesn’t want anything. He just wants an attitude from your brother," Mengyan said, her expression serious.

"An attitude from Guo Da? That’s easy enough. I’ll talk to him later and make sure he sincerely apologizes to Zhang Yang," Guo Qiyu said, thinking it was a simple matter.

But then, Mengyan turned on her phone and played the video for him.

"This is your brother’s attitude."
