To help his three adoptive siblings, Zhou Chen sacrificed his future, only for them to succeed. However, instead of gratitude, he was met with ingratitude, leading to a lifetime of hardship.
...
Zhou Ling's appearance failed to prevent Zhao Kun from being sent to the police station.
Although Zhao Kun did not take anything, his act of trespassing on the construction site was true. In addition, given his previous experience of being arrested, Uncle Hat gave him another stern reprimand.
As for getting a beating, it's pointless to take the beating.
They also need to apologize to Sun Liancheng.
They've lost everything, both substance and face.
After Sun Liancheng and the others left
Zhou Ling, Zhou Na, and Zhao Kun, whose face was bruised and swollen, walked out of the police station.
"I'm going back to my dorm."
Zhou Na glanced at the two of them, said something, and turned to leave.
Zhou Ling wanted to say something, but after opening her mouth, she swallowed it back.
Originally, she planned to have Zhou Na witness the scene of Zhou Chen having everything taken away. However, instead of seeing Zhou Chen become penniless, she witnessed Zhao Kun become a laughing stock, and ended up in the police station because of a big misunderstanding.
It can be described as trying to steal a chicken but losing the rice instead, lifting a stone to drop it on one's own foot.
I was incredibly frustrated.
hiss……
Zhao Kun, standing to the side, touched his wound and gasped in pain, instantly drawing Zhou Ling's attention. "Zhou Chen, our feud has escalated again. You just wait, I'll get my revenge on you for the beating I suffered today."
His attempt to expose Zhou Chen backfired, and he was beaten and made a laughingstock. Zhao Kun blamed all of this on Zhou Chen.
He was especially furious that Zhou Chen was dating the construction site owner's daughter.
Such a pretty girl, how could she like a high school student like Zhou Chen?
What's so great about Zhou Chen? He's not even as handsome as him.
"Brother Kun, I'm sorry. If it weren't for you standing up for me, things wouldn't have turned out like this. Zhou Chen just got lucky. Brother Kun, don't be discouraged. I believe you will be more successful than him in the future."
"He's dating that boss's daughter to become a rich husband. Whether she'll even agree to marry him is another matter. Even if she does, he'll have to become a live-in son-in-law. A grown man becoming a live-in son-in-law means he'll lose all his dignity. You can laugh at him all you want, Brother Kun."
Zhou Ling quickly touched Zhao Kun's wound with heartache and comforted him.
A glint flashed in Zhao Kun's eyes as he realized that Zhou Ling's words made sense. Even if Zhou Chen had latched onto a powerful figure, so what? He was just a dog of a rich family. As a live-in son-in-law, he would be looked down upon and might suffer a lot of humiliation.
At that point, he can launch a fierce attack and regain the face he lost.
Thinking about this, Zhao Kun felt much better.
Compared to Zhou Chen, his dignity is intact because he doesn't have to be a live-in son-in-law.
Zhou Ling was a woman he won over without spending any money.
Can you, Zhou Chen, do that?
In this respect, I, Zhao Kun, am better than you.
Zhao Kun has found a way to achieve victory through mental manipulation, which gives him a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction in defeating Zhou Chen.
"Come home with me."
I want you right now!
Zhao Kun grabbed Zhou Ling's wrist and started walking home, appearing quite anxious.
"Brother Kun, I...we can't...the child is in danger..."
"I don't care, there's no room for discussion."
Faced with Zhou Ling's resistance, Zhao Kun's tone left no room for argument.
You, Zhou Chen, have embarrassed me, haven't you? Then I'll bully your sister badly. So what if she's not your biological sister? I'm going to bully her badly anyway.
On the other end,
Sun Liancheng and his daughter Sun Wanying returned to the construction site from the police station.
Inside the office,
As soon as he sat down, Sun Liancheng began to interrogate Sun Wanying in detail.
When did you two get together?
"Did he pursue you, or did you pursue him?"
Has he been dishonest with you?
Sun Liancheng was both angry and happy. He was angry because he, as the father, found out later than Zhao Kun, an outsider. He was happy because Zhou Chen really had feelings for his daughter, Sun Wanying, and they had become boyfriend and girlfriend.
Faced with her father's persistent questioning, Sun Wanying was too embarrassed to answer directly. Her face flushed red, and she quickly made an excuse to change the subject.
"Don't worry about work for now. I just want to know how far things have progressed."
Sun Liancheng was not going to let Sun Wanying brush him off, and he adopted a determined attitude to get to the bottom of things.
Seeing that she couldn't avoid it, Sun Wanying hurriedly clutched her stomach, said her stomach hurt, and ran out of the office.
"Silly girl, Dad is afraid you'll get hurt. What if that brat takes advantage of you and then doesn't take responsibility? In the end, you'll be the one who's heartbroken."
Sun Liancheng sighed helplessly and shook his head.
Now, he truly understands that daughters grow up and leave home. The little girl who used to listen to him has grown up, has her own thoughts and ideas, and no longer tells him everything.
A distance has grown between the father and daughter, but this is unavoidable, as it is the price that must be paid for growing up.
...
Upon receiving a call from Sun Wanying, I learned that Zhao Kun had gone to the construction site to report the matter an hour earlier.
Zhou Chen was utterly astonished.
He was having an affair with Sun Liancheng's woman?
Zhao Kun is really daring. No wonder Zhou Ling sent him a text message after he scolded her away, saying that he would regret it. His confidence in their relationship comes from this incident.
Unfortunately, Zhao Kun made a blunder; Sun Wanying was Sun Liancheng's daughter, and the two were simply dating normally.
Zhao Kun's attempt to expose this matter was doomed to failure; he became a laughingstock.
However, he had to thank Xu Laoqi and the other workers who beat Zhao Kun up, for teaching Zhao Kun a lesson he could rightfully and without having to take responsibility.
Zhao Kun could only suffer in silence, unable to express his bitterness.
That was so much fun! It's a shame he wasn't there, otherwise he would have gone up and kicked it a couple of times too.
"Because of him, everyone on the construction site knows that we're together. My dad even asked about us. What are you going to do about it?"
After discussing Zhao Kun, Sun Wanying moved on to the main topic.
"Since that's the case, let's not keep it a secret anymore. I'll go see Uncle Sun tomorrow."
The secret relationship was exposed, and everyone at the construction site knew about it. Zhou Chen knew that there was no way to hide it, and that she would have to face it sooner or later.
Anyway, all we need to do is deal with Sun Liancheng.
"You...you really want to see my dad?"
Sun Wanying's tone revealed a hint of surprise and delight, because this meeting was different from the previous ones, as their identities were different.
Zhou Chen nodded and said seriously, "I will try my best to get Uncle Sun to agree, and even if Uncle Sun makes any unreasonable demands, I will do my best to fulfill them."
"Thank you."
"No need to thank me. You are the person I chose to spend the rest of my life with. It is what I should do to gain Uncle Sun's approval for you. Not only that, I also want to make you the happiest woman in the world and the richest lady."
Zhou Chen said boldly.
Hearing these sweet words, Sun Wanying on the other end of the phone was instantly filled with sweetness.
