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.
...
Seeing that Li Kaile didn't go to Dongfeng Logistics Company to study, but instead went to Yenching University himself,
Zhou Chen was somewhat surprised.
Li Kaile chuckled and said that he was there to deliver information about Zhou Ling.
oh?
What kind of trouble is Zhou Ling up to now?
Zhou Chen's expression flashed. Could it be that Zhou Ling was plotting against him again? But he wasn't in Fanjia County, so what could Zhou Ling do? Or had Zhou Ling gone to the old house, intending to break down the door?
If that's the case, then that's too much of a punishment.
He wouldn't mind sending Zhou Ling in for a few days on charges of trespassing.
Moreover, Zhou Ling could not possibly enter the old house. Firstly, the neighbors in the community are now mostly on his side. Secondly, he spent a lot of money to modify the door in order to prevent Zhou Ling from breaking in in a fit of anger. And if Zhou Ling dares to damage the door, the networked iron gate will automatically issue a warning and trigger an alarm.
"Brother Chen, it's like this, just yesterday..."
Li Kaile relayed the news he had heard in detail.
A few minutes later,
Zhou Chen then realized that he had been overthinking things. Zhou Ling had no intention of making a move on him; instead, she had once again acted ingratitude.
Zhou Ling went to the vegetable market to pick up leftover vegetables that others didn't want. As a result, a kind-hearted vegetable vendor couldn't bear to see her like that and, out of pity, gave her the leftover vegetables that she couldn't sell.
Over time, Zhou Ling came to take this kind of thing for granted.
Just yesterday, when the vegetable vendor ran out of vegetables, Zhou Ling made the astonishing statement that she would compensate her with money if there were no vegetables left.
The woman selling vegetables was overheard by her husband, and an argument ensued.
Zhou Chen wasn't particularly surprised by this. It was perfectly normal for Zhou Ling, this ungrateful wretch, to do such a thing. She had repaid kindness with enmity countless times, and she did it with a sense of entitlement and self-righteousness.
That vegetable-selling couple will probably be traumatized for the rest of their lives, and they won't dare to help others like that again.
Zhou Ling's behavior has chilled the hearts of all kind-hearted people.
"I have never seen such a shameless person who takes other people's kindness for granted, as if others owe her something."
Zhao Kun felt indignant on behalf of the couple.
Zhou Chen chuckled, recalling the famous saying, "A shameless person is invincible," which was absolutely applicable to Zhou Ling.
"Fortunately, everyone couldn't stand it anymore, which aroused public outrage, and they threw rotten eggs and all sorts of rotten vegetable leaves all over her."
Thinking of the scene of Zhou Ling being besieged, Zhao Kun's anger immediately subsided.
"From now on, I reckon that even if those vegetable vendors feed their leftover vegetable scraps to pigs or dogs, they won't give them to her."
"Even if you go to the market and get caught, everyone will want to kill you."
Zhao Kun concluded that Zhou Ling had been blacklisted by the vegetable vendors.
Zhou Chen nodded silently, neither confirming nor denying it. That was probably true, but given Zhou Ling's personality, she likely wouldn't go again.
After this incident,
Zhou Ling's reputation will inevitably become even worse, and life in that small place, Fanjia County, will become increasingly difficult.
But for Zhou Chen, this seems to be a good thing.
A phone vibrated, interrupting Zhou Chen's thoughts. Seeing the caller ID, Zhou Chen suddenly remembered something and invited Li Kaile to have dinner together later.
More precisely, it's a formal welcome to our old classmate, Wu Yuxue.
Previously, Wu Yuxue was persuaded by Liu Lei to join Zhou Chen's company, but because she had unfinished projects, she resigned from her original job a few days ago and came to work at the test paper company.
When I saw Wu Yuxue again, she seemed even more beautiful than before.
To be precise, Wu Yuxue has become more mature, and her aura as a strong career woman has intensified, much like Sun Wanying's, but there are also some differences between the two.
Sun Wanying has a queen-like aura; she can be both regal and sweet, switching between the two effortlessly.
Wu Yuxue lacks this multifaceted nature.
The dinner table was still lively. As old classmates, Lu Ye and Liu Lei had a lot to talk about with Wu Yuxue, including explaining things about the company to her so that she could have a general understanding.
"Mr. Zhou, can I take charge of the new project?"
With three years of college entrance exams and five years of mock exams as excellent precedents, Wu Yuxue wanted to tackle past exam papers from elementary, middle, and junior high schools to prove herself and demonstrate her value.
Hearing his old classmate call him "President Zhou," Zhou Chen felt a little uncomfortable, but he smiled and nodded in agreement. With Wu Yuxue joining, the new project would definitely be developed better.
Following this topic, the group chatted for quite a while longer.
During the middle of the meal,
Sun Wanying arrived, and upon seeing Sun Wanying's star-like beauty, a fleeting look of self-doubt flashed across Wu Yuxue's eyes, while she suppressed certain emotions within her once again.
Sun Wanying was there to assert her dominance; she knew of Wu Yuxue's existence and that Wu Yuxue had feelings for Zhou Chen.
But she still agreed to let Wu Yuxue join Zhou Chen's team.
Because she was not afraid, and she was confident that no one could take Zhou Chen away from her.
Sun Wanying once said that a boyfriend who can be stolen away is not worth having, which shows that Sun Wanying is a person who dares to love and hate.
Of course, Zhou Chen isn't the kind of scumbag who's always looking for something better.
After Sun Wanying appeared, Wu Yuxue spoke less, and Lu Ye and Liu Lei mostly started the conversation.
After finishing the meal, Li Kaile quickly took a taxi back to his school dormitory.
Lu Ye, Liu Lei, and Wu Yuxue drove away.
After Zhou Chen and Sun Wanying were left,
Zhou Chen felt a little uneasy under Sun Wanying's gaze.
