At this moment, the person accompanying Zhou Zidong was none other than Chen Bi, with whom he had discussed cooperation last time.

Looking at it now, it seemed unlikely that Xia Xiaodie's numerous difficulties came without Zhou Zidong's suggestion.

It seemed that because of her, one could see a horde of paparazzi with cameras hurrying over here.

"Get rid of these flower baskets and put up ours," he instructed.

In an instant, Ke Longxiang and his people had already arrived at the storefront.

Ke Longxiang emerged from the crowd, glanced at the flower baskets filled at the entrance, frowned, and then gave an order.

A few of his men immediately began to move, lifting the flower baskets at the door and preparing to throw them into the nearby trash cans.

"What are you doing!"

Among the flower baskets being thrown away were the ones carefully prepared by Xia Yanyu for her younger sister this time.

At this moment, seeing the flower basket her sister had sent being taken away, Xia Xiaodie couldn't help it and charged directly at them!

Though she indeed harbored a grudge against her sister, how could Xia Xiaodie forget the meticulous care her sister had shown her over the years?

No matter what, both of them had the same blood flowing through their veins!

"I'll handle it."

Ke Longxiang had brought his best men today, and Xiaodie might get hurt if she rashly approached them. Xu Fan held her back and walked straight towards the thugs carrying away the flower baskets.

"Put it down," Xu Fan said indifferently, standing in front of the thug carrying away Xia Yanyu's flower basket.

The other side scoffed in disdain, seeming about to utter some mockery, but before he could make a sound, Xu Fan acted decisively, kneeing the man squarely in the stomach.

As the victim's internal organs nearly twisted into knots, Xu Fan ignored the fallen thug before him, picked up the flower basket, and returned it to its original place.

This scene was captured by many journalists in the distance. It wasn't necessarily a good thing, but Xu Fan didn't care much.

He was never a good person to begin with. So what about appearing in the news?

"Xu Fan, that was a bit mean of you," remarked Ke Longxiang, baring his enmity towards Xu Fan, which cut deep since his night club was shut down a few days ago and he had narrowly escaped jail.

Seeing Xu Fan attack his man in front of everyone, Ke Longxiang's face grew ugly.

Squinting at Xu Fan, he said, "These flower baskets at the door have been wilting in the sun for a long time. What's wrong with throwing them away?"

"I, Ke Longxiang, have come from far to congratulate you, and you're not giving me face?"

The commotion at the entrance was not small, and the customers who had been inside looking at jewelry all came out.

For them, the group headed by Ke Longxiang, the notorious scions of Shanghai, was far more interesting.

As Ke Longxiang openly confronted him, the crowd thought that the boss would have to bow his head.

After all, he was the leader of the Crown Prince Party.

Surrounded by people, Xu Fan remained as composed as ever and glanced at Ke Longxiang with a faint smile, "Young Master Ke, please think carefully. When have I, Xu Fan, ever given you face?"

"You!"

This was a total disregard for himself!

Ke Longxiang almost exploded with anger! If his companions hadn't stopped him, he would probably have started a fight with Xu Fan on the spot!

"Now that my jewelry store is open, it means open doors for business—welcoming both humans and dogs alike," Xu Fan continued.

"However, there are distinctions of respect and status, even when placing a flower basket."

"If you want to put one down, then place it at the farthest end."

With a few light and casual sentences, the meaning was clearly conveyed to everyone in earshot.

For a moment, the crowd couldn't help but look at Xu Fan in surprise.

The newly opened jewelry store was not very well-understood, let alone the extremely young owner behind the scenes.

But who was Ke Longxiang? They knew him better than anyone else.

However, today, this young man had done something in front of everyone that almost no one in Shanghai dared to do.

He had stood up to Ke Longxiang.

"Xu Fan, you really don't give face, do you?"

Without a doubt, Xu Fan had just called himself a dog, and Ke Longxiang was so angry that the words he spoke seemed almost squeezed out from between his teeth.

"You dare to open a jewelry store in Shanghai with just your abilities?"

This visit was to join with the Zhou Family and give Xu Fan a show of power.

Zhou Family's Jewels had deep roots in Shanghai, and Ke Longxiang didn't think that Xu Fan had the capability to compete!

Today, he had specifically brought a group of brothers over to see how Xu Fan would be trampled by the Zhou Family into a sorry state!

"Big shot Ke, with the situation you're in now, your Ke Family will probably not be able to stand for much longer here in Shanghai."

"Do you really think you still have the time to bother with me?"

As Xu Fan spoke, he glanced lightly towards Li Xiaochen behind the crowd.

This very ambiguous look, though it lasted only a moment, was still perceived by Ke Longxiang.

He didn't need to think to know that Xu Fan was making a signal to someone.

God damn Li Xiaochen!

The guy had shown up uninvited, claiming he wanted to help his Ke Family, which was somewhat fishy to begin with!

Now, Ke Longxiang understood that this guy was probably a pawn Xu Fan had planted near him!

At this moment, Ke Longxiang clenched his fists tightly, thinking that when the opportunity arose, he would definitely kill this guy.

"Let me speak, Young Master Ke."

At this time, Zhou Zidong, who had been waiting by the side, stepped forward.

After all, today's issue was primarily between Xu Fan and his Zhou Family; Ke Longxiang was just a spectator.

He called out to the group and then looked over at Xu Fan.

A foolhardy youngster, not only daring to go after the woman he fancied, but now, daring to nibble at the Zhou Family's territory right under their noses?

He was courting death!

"Ladies and gentlemen, as a luxury item, the reputation of jewelry is incredibly important."

Zhou Zidong cleared his throat and began speaking directly to the customers who were watching.

"With prices so high, if you were to buy fakes, wouldn't you cry yourselves to death?"

"Zhou Family Jewels has nearly a hundred years of history in Shanghai. Today, I've come to remind you all, don't be lured by a small bargain only to see your hard-earned money go down the drain."

"Some people, using the Gelangqiao brand, hehe, seems very tempting to sell jewelry, but who knows what's real or fake?"

"As far as I know, someone recently wanted to hire Miss Chen Bi to endorse them, but Miss Chen Bi, it seems, you have rejected their request, haven't you?"

"This..."

As Zhou Zidong said, no one wanted to buy jewelry that had no guarantee, expensive as it was—who would they turn to if there were issues? This has always been an inherent problem with new stores, lacking the reputation and trust of established ones.

Now, with Zhou Zidong's instigation, many customers who had just been tempted by the jewelry inside began to waver.

For a moment, they all turned to look at Chen Bi.

They wanted to see what exactly was the reason that led Chen Bi to refuse the endorsement from XD.
