The arrival of Zhao Zhi did not surprise Huang Si in the least. Zhao Zhi was the primary owner of this establishment, often dropping by in the evenings for a look around, and if anything had occurred today, he would certainly be present.

"Mr. Su, I sincerely apologize that your daughter was frightened!" Yan Zheng offered a cheerful remark to Su Shaohua.

Yan Zheng was the police officer who had entered with Su Shaohua; he was still in uniform that evening and was, in fact, the local Chief of the Public Security Bureau. He had been startled by Huang Si earlier.

"It's a good thing nothing serious happened, but the public order here really needs to be addressed seriously!" Su Shaohua quietly comforted his daughter before speaking calmly. The dissatisfaction in Su Shaohua's tone was palpable.

When he received Su Wei's call, he had been instantly alarmed and immediately contacted his own network of associates. Su Shaohua understood clearly that even the smallest issue could not be resolved without connections.

The Su family comprised more than just him, a businessman; they also included two officials at the ministerial level, granting them immense influence. The connection Su Shaohua sought was the Director of the Provincial Public Security Department for Wannan Province.

Su Shaohua knew this Director and had interacted with him before. Upon receiving the news, the Director immediately relayed the pressure down to the municipal bureau, which is why the Chief of the Public Security Bureau personally appeared.

Su Shaohua and Yan Zheng were unacquainted, so Su Shaohua offered no pleasantries and directly voiced his displeasure. "Mr.

Su is right; it must be addressed. Rest assured, I will give you a full explanation!" Yan Zheng nodded with a wry smile.

This matter had been arranged personally by the Director; he dared not disobey. Furthermore, he had some understanding of Su Shaohua.

Although just a businessman, he was a politically connected one—the eldest son of the Su family, the third son, both held high positions and were currently flourishing. Especially the third son of the Su family, who, despite his young age, was already at the full ministerial level, with limitless prospects.

A mere municipal bureau chief like himself could not afford to offend an entity as massive as the Su family. This time, he could only count it as bad luck and settle scores with the main culprits later.

"Dad, my brother was beaten. If Zhang Yang hadn't been here, who knows what would have happened to him; I don't know if I could have waited for you to arrive!" Su Wei lifted her head and added, tears still streaming down her face, appearing utterly pitiable.

Hearing that Su Zhantao had been beaten, Su Shaohua hurried to look forward. Su Zhantao, unable to evade the gaze, slowly made his way over.

"Second Uncle!" The alcohol had entirely worn off him. Today's events were partly his responsibility, and he was prepared to accept any punishment.

"Is your head alright?" Su Shaohua reached out and lightly flicked his head, dislodging a shard of glass, which caused Su Shaohua's expression to shift again. It was evident that Su Zhantao’s head had been struck by a bottle.

Su Zhantao was the sole surviving male heir of his third brother and a source of pride for the Su family. Any harm to him would be a considerable shock to the entire clan.

"I'm fine, I'm fine, Second Uncle, I'm okay! Thankfully, Zhang Yang was here!" Su Zhantao hastily shook his head.

Once sober, he naturally knew who had avenged him. Without Zhang Yang, he was well aware of what the outcome might have been today.

"Zhang Yang?" Su Shaohua murmured the name softly, tinged with surprise. Zhang Yang was not unfamiliar to him; he was his current attending physician, the one tasked with curing his long-standing ailment, and a business partner in promoting Sānqī with Su Zhantao.

However, he had not anticipated that Zhang Yang possessed such formidable combat prowess. He had witnessed the chaos firsthand, and Su Wei had just mentioned that Zhang Yang had subdued all those men single-handedly.

While they were speaking, the police officers brought by Director Yan began apprehending the culprits. Those lying on the ground, whether conscious or unconscious, were being carried out.

Witnessing the miserable state of these men, even the police officers shook their heads, particularly the six men in the rear—some had broken arms, others broken legs. These individuals would be hospitalized for some time, at the very least.

Baldy and Zhao Feng were also carried out. Finally, Zhao Zhi entered, looking upon the scene with astonishment.

He had just greeted Director Yan, but the Director had barely acknowledged him. "Boss!" Huang Si could no longer conceal himself and rushed over from the back, stopping before Zhao Zhi with his head bowed low.

Zhao Zhi was a renowned local tycoon; he held a sixty percent stake in this venue. "What in the world is going on?" Zhao Zhi demanded sharply, but as he finished speaking, his eyes suddenly widened again.

Upon entering, a manager had been reporting the situation to him, and his focus had been primarily on Director Yan and his group; he hadn't looked further ahead. Only now did he see Zhang Yang standing there in the foreground.

He had come here today after picking up his medical test results from the hospital. The results confirmed clearly that he did indeed have melanoma.

Fortunately, his condition was still early-stage, offering a chance of recovery, although the standard of their hospital was insufficient, recommending treatment at a larger medical center. Whether to go to a major hospital was not even a consideration for Zhao Zhi; all his hope rested on Zhang Yang.

Zhang Yang was the first to discover his illness, a doctor reputed to be superior even to the Master of the Ji Clan Medical Hall, which gave him immense confidence. Most importantly, his personal physician, that famous doctor from Beijing, dared not offer him any guarantees, whereas only Zhang Yang had told him he could cure this disease.

At this moment, the person he trusted most was Zhang Yang, and he had been contemplating how to cultivate a good relationship with him. Seeing Zhang Yang here naturally astonished him.

"Dr. Zhang!" Forgetting Huang Si entirely, Zhao Zhi hurried over, greeting Zhang Yang with a cheerful smile.

"Dr. Zhang, what brings you here?

You should have notified me if you were coming to unwind so I could fulfill my duty as a host!" Zhao Zhi’s demeanor toward Zhang Yang was exceedingly respectful, almost bordering on obsequious; Zhao Zhi seemed intent on flattering him. It was unavoidable; this was the man capable of treating him and saving his life.

Zhao Zhi certainly dared not show any slight. What he failed to realize was that his attitude toward Zhang Yang caused many onlookers to widen their eyes, especially Huang Si, who retreated further, attempting to shrink his head.

Unfortunately, due to his height, shrinking his head did little to conceal him. "I came with friends and encountered a small, unexpected incident!" Zhang Yang smiled faintly.

Su Zhantao had already joined Su Shaohua; only Zhang Yang and Mi Xue remained at his side. The police were present now, and Baldy had been taken into custody.

Zhang Yang relaxed somewhat, no longer fearing further trouble, though he was equally surprised to see Zhao Zhi, particularly noting Huang Si's respectful deference toward him. "An incident?

Dr. Zhang, what sort of incident?

I forgot to mention—this is one of my properties!" Zhao Zhi paused slightly, then asked urgently, directly stating that he was the boss here. He had been searching for an opportunity to curry favor with Zhang Yang.

He vividly remembered the previous incident where Zhang Yang was angered due to his oversight concerning Ji Hongguang’s treatment, and he had been devising ways to make amends for days. Now that trouble had erupted in Zhang Yang’s presence at his own venue, how could he afford to appear inactive?

Zhao Zhi knew very well that if he handled this matter properly, he could not only maintain a good relationship with Zhang Yang but also repair the previous rift. "Boss, here is what happened!" Before Zhang Yang could speak, Huang Si scurried over, pulling Zhao Zhi aside to explain in a hushed voice.

While explaining, Huang Si secretly congratulated himself for not having lost his temper earlier and engaging in a physical altercation with Zhang Yang. Even setting aside whether he could have defeated Zhang Yang, if he had actually laid a hand on him, he probably wouldn't have escaped unscathed, judging by the Great Boss's attitude toward Zhang Yang.

Not to mention the menacing presence of the Chief of the Municipal Bureau nearby. Even if he were foolish, he now understood that the Chief was there to back up Zhang Yang and his companions.

He had clearly seen the young girl initially harassed by Baldy weeping in her father's arms. And that girl's father was a figure to whom even the Chief of the Bureau showed utmost respect.

"Hu Ming's nephew? And Zhao Feng, they were causing havoc here, and what have you been doing?" As soon as Zhao Zhi finished listening, his expression changed drastically, and he immediately berated Huang Si.

Hu Ming was a shareholder in this venue, holding a mere 10% stake—a minor partner. If Zhao Zhi hadn't helped him out, he wouldn't even have that 10%.

Zhao Zhi naturally held no regard for Hu Ming’s nephew. As for Zhao Feng, while they shared a surname, they were not closely related.

Zhao Feng’s father was an official in the Public Security Bureau, which explained why he could become a leader at such a young age. However, with the Chief of the Bureau personally present today, even a father who was an official offered little help.

"Boss, I didn't intend for this, but thankfully, they didn't suffer any major losses!" Huang Si replied with a pained expression, explaining slowly. The people managing security here were currently just hired hands; the true organized crime element was neither established nor powerful—brutality alone couldn't achieve much without financial backing.

Zhao Zhi, as the main proprietor of the nightclub, held considerable authority here. "As long as the losses weren't too great, go immediately and apologize!" Zhao Zhi glared.

Huang Si, feeling bitter inside, reluctantly walked over and quietly offered his apology to Zhang Yang. If he had known Zhang Yang had such a connection to the Boss, he wouldn't have dared suggest letting Baldy go earlier.

He actually disliked Baldy himself; the man frequently harassed people here, and if Baldy hadn't had an uncle backing him, Huang Si would have beaten him up countless times. "Dr.

Zhang, are you alright?" Just as Huang Si finished apologizing, Su Shaohua approached. He had been so concerned with his daughter and nephew that he had somewhat overlooked Zhang Yang, and now he hurried over to rectify the oversight.

"I'm fine!" Zhang Yang shook his head. Director Yan, following closely behind, looked at him with growing astonishment.

"It’s good that you are fine. We owe you a great debt today.

Zhantao was indiscreet, and Weiwei was mischievous; without you here, who knows what would have become of things!" His words caused Su Zhantao to lower his head again. Su Zhantao felt a surge of indignation.

He was several years older than Zhang Yang; how could he be called indiscreet? Moreover, he was on the verge of becoming a multi-millionaire, a status that should have rendered the term 'indiscreet' irrelevant to him long ago.

However, these were the words of an elder, and though he had objections, he dared not voice them. "Mr.

Su is being too formal. Zhantao and I are friends; his business is my business.

In truth, it wasn't entirely our fault today either!" Zhang Yang shook his head and smiled faintly. "Mr.

Su, may I ask who this Dr. Zhang is?" Director Yan, the Chief of the Public Security Bureau beside him, suddenly interjected.

"Director Yan, this is my attending physician, Dr. Zhang Yang.

Don't let his youth fool you; his medical skills are truly extraordinary and remarkably potent!" Su Shaohua turned back, smiling at Director Yan. He had maintained a reserved air initially, but now that his daughter and nephew were unharmed, he felt reassured.

Since they had promised a serious investigation into today's events, he couldn't afford to be disrespectful; ultimately, they would rely on their people to resolve the matter. "Zhang Yang, is he the son of Secretary Zhang?" Yan Zheng asked carefully, scrutinizing Zhang Yang.

"Secretary Zhang? Which Secretary Zhang?" Zhang Yang frowned slightly.

For some unknown reason, the three words "Secretary Zhang" gave him a distinctly unpleasant feeling, stirring up a sense of anger. "My apologies, I may have misremembered!" Yan Zheng immediately shook his head, then glanced at Zhang Yang with renewed confusion.

Before becoming the Municipal Chief, Yan Zheng had served as a County Chief, though not in Jiao Yi City, but in a subordinate county of a neighboring city. At that time, he had an accidental opportunity to visit the home of the Municipal Party Secretary and had seen a young boy who bore a striking resemblance to Zhang Yang; he thought the name might also have been Zhang Yang, which prompted his question.

Since Zhang Yang did not confirm it, Yan Zheng immediately retracted his inquiry. Regardless of whether Zhang Yang was the son of that Secretary Zhang, if Zhang Yang himself denied it, Yan Zheng could not press further.

Moreover, that Secretary Zhang had long since been promoted, ranking far higher than a Municipal Bureau Chief like himself—someone he absolutely could not afford to offend. "Mr.

Su, Dr. Zhang, please rest assured.

We will investigate this case thoroughly and ensure justice is served. Mr.

Zhao, as this incident occurred on your premises, we request your full cooperation!" Yan Zheng immediately stated, his tone serious, as someone behind him took notes on a pad. Zhao Zhi promptly replied, "Director Yan, please be assured, we will cooperate fully.

No matter who is implicated, you need not hesitate!" Zhao Zhi was currently seeking opportunities to appease Zhang Yang, and a case where Zhang Yang suffered indignity was one he would support with all his might. Even if Zhang Yang was unharmed while a group of thugs lay injured, the outcome was the same.

Huang Si awkwardly retreated further, an even stronger sense of relief washing over him. Initially, he had refrained from rash action due to Zhang Yang’s martial strength; looking back now, it had been an incredibly wise decision.

If he had actually engaged these young men, even if he had gained the upper hand initially, he would have ultimately suffered severe repercussions. He had seen the Municipal Bureau Chief speaking personally, and their Boss was also present.

It was evident that the higher-ups were favoring these young people. Baldy would undoubtedly face ruin this time, and perhaps even his uncle would suffer some consequences.

With assurances from both the Chief and the Boss, Su Shaohua finally nodded. He had been truly terrified when Su Wei called him crying, but upon arriving here and realizing his people were unharmed, he felt relieved.

After bidding farewell to Yan Zheng and the others, Su Shaohua departed with Su Wei and Su Zhantao. Zhang Yang and Mi Xue left together as well; after all that turmoil, neither felt like staying to enjoy themselves.

Even if they had wanted to stay, it would likely have been impossible; the nightclub's dance floor had been sealed off by the police, and Zhao Zhi had ordered the entire establishment to close.
