<h4>Chapter 712: Chapter 717: The Disappearance of Zhou Jun (3)</h4>


    In the room, Zhou Juny on the bed, his bodypletely bare, covered by a nket from the waist down. Clothes were scattered on the floor beside the bed, along with several empty wine bottles, filling the room with the smell of alcohol. At this moment, Zhou Jun’s eyes were closed, snoring loudly like thunder, having fallen into a deep sleep,pletely unaware of the noise outside.


    "This..." Song Ge looked at Ling Chen, then at the others, his face bewildered: "Ling, what should we do now?"


    Hearing Song Ge speak, Ling Chen finally reacted, hastily asking the others at the door to leave, only keeping himself and Song Ge, then closing the door. He hurried to Zhou Jun’s side and shook him.


    "Zhou Jun, wake up! Come on, wake up!"


    But no matter how Ling Chen and Song Ge shouted, Zhou Jun did not respond, clearly having drunk himself to unconsciousness.


    Seeing this, Ling Chen had no choice but to pull Zhou Jun up from the bed and pped him across the face.


    After several ps, the sleeping Zhou Jun finally woke up. He rubbed his eyes, looked at Ling Chen and Song Ge all groggy, and yawned continuously, asking: "Ling Chen, what... why are you guys... here?"


    Song Ge spoke gravely, "Zhou Jun, you better wake up fast, this isn’t the time to sleep."


    Ling Chen added, "Do you remember what happened earlier?"


    "I... I seem to... have been drinking..." Saying this, Zhou Jun turned his head to look around, his expression slightly changing as he eximed in surprise: "How... how am I here, where is this?"


    Seeing the look of surprise on Zhou Jun’s face, Ling Chen and Song Ge exchanged nces, sensing a hint of trouble from each other’s eyes.


    Ling Chen turned back, his expression solemn, "Zhou Jun, this is no joke; think carefully, what exactly happened earlier? Could it be... did you... with a woman..."


    "Woman?" Zhou Jun asked puzzled: "What woman? Ling Chen, what exactly are you talking about?"


    "Ah!" Song Ge sighed and said, "Zhou Jun, don’t you remember whose room this is? This is Zhu Ying’s ce, haven’t you been here before? Howe you don’t have any recollection?"


    Zhu Ying?


    Zhou Jun’s expression changed, he quickly looked around, and eximed in surprise, "How... how did I end up in her room? I clearly remember drinking alone outside, and then... then..." As he spoke, a look of confusion appeared on Zhou Jun’s face, as if he was struggling to recall what had happened during the day.


    "Right! I remember when I was drinking, I bumped into Zhu Ying, we had a small chat, and then... we drank a few drinks together..."


    Song Ge pressed, "And then what?"


    Zhou Jun shook his head, "I forgot what happened after that. When I woke up, I saw you guys, if you hadn’t told me, I wouldn’t have known this was Zhu Ying’s room."


    "You..." Just as Ling Chen was about to speak, a ’bang’ sounded, and the room’s door was kicked open from the outside. Right after, Zhou Qi appeared at the door with a livid face and strode in.


    Seeing his grandfather appear, Zhou Jun was suddenly shocked, hurriedly got up from the bed. However, just as he moved, he realized he was wearing nothing, his face instantly blushing red, quickly covered his vital parts with a nket, looking awkwardly at Ling Chen and Song Ge, stammering, "You... I... how did I..."


    Ling Chen opened his mouth, but the words at his lips were swallowed back. At this point, saying anything was useless. Many people had seen Zhou Jun’s state, and with Zhu Ying’s recent disheveled appearance, there was no need to ask further; everyone already understood what had happened.


    Once this matter spreads, it will not only cause Zhou Jun to lose face but also leave Elder Zhou with no ce to show his face. When the timees, not just Zhou Jun, but Elder Zhou won’t be able to stay at the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion anymore.


    Harsh, too harsh!


    Ling Chen frowned secretly, no need to say, the incident clearly involved someone plotting behind the scenes. As for who it was, he couldn’t determine yet, however, even if he didn’t know, Zhu Ying surely did.


    At this moment, Elder Zhou walked to the bedside, looked at Zhou Jun lying on the bed, his face not looking natural, and snorted lightly, saying nothing more than, "Dress up,e back with me."


    After saying that, Elder Zhou turned around and left the room. Ling Chen and Song Ge exchanged nces, then followed Elder Zhou’s steps, leaving the room together.


    Outside the room, Zhu Ying was draped in a coat, leaning against the wall with her hands covering her face, sobbing non-stop, surrounded by several women, probably friends living next to her,forting her.


    However, no matter what they said, Zhu Ying kept crying non-stop, screaming about seeking justice from the Pavilion Master.


    "Enough, stop crying!"


    Elder Zhou said impatiently, "I will investigate this matter clearly and will eventually give you justice."


    "No, Elder Zhou, it’s not that I don’t trust you, but Zhou Jun is your grandson, after dishonoring me like this, aren’t you going to cover up for him?"


    "You..." Elder Zhou’s face turned cold, his fists clenched, feeling an urge to throw a punch. He took a deep breath, his anger subsiding slightly, and said coldly, "Since you are seeking justice from the Pavilion Master, go ahead then." With that, Elder Zhou waved his sleeve and strode towards the outside of the building.


    Not long after Elder Zhou had left, Zhou Jun came out of the room.


    As soon as Zhou Jun appeared, Zhu Ying immediately burst into tears, rushed over and yelled fiercely, "You bastard, you ruined my innocence, I must kill you today!"


    Seeing Zhu Ying’s impulsive action, Ling Chen frowned, immediately stepped in front of her, caught her wrist gently, and just a slight pull made Zhu Ying lose her bnce, suddenly swaying to the side and leaning against the wall.


    "Song, you take Zhou Jun away first."


    "Alright." Song Ge responded, immediately pulling Zhou Jun away.


    "Wait! I..." Zhou Jun wanted to exin, but before he could speak, Song Ge had already dragged him away.


    Only after Song Ge and Zhou Jun had left did Ling Chen let go of Zhu Ying, his expression stern, "I’m telling you, don’t think I’m unaware of the tricks you’re ying. It would be wise for you not to stick to this matter any longer, and also, tell the people behind you, if they dare touch a single hair on Zhou Jun again, don’t me me for being unkind."


    Zhu Ying was stunned for a moment, then scoffed, "Are you threatening me? Ling Chen, I know you, what right does an outsider have to interfere in my matters? Moreover, I advise you not to meddle in affairs that aren’t yours, otherwise, you might not know who will end up unlucky."


    "Fine, we’ll see about that."
