Hao Min glanced quickly at Su Qingjiao, who dared not look up at her, took a deep breath, and walked out without looking to the side, leaving the Zhou family villa.

Su Qingjiao was filled with hatred, resentment, anger, and fear. How could she forget that Hao Min was still in the villa!

The original intention was to broaden her horizons and make her envious of her privileged life, but with this happening, she'll definitely start to doubt her own identity...

no!

no!

I need to figure out a way to smooth things over.

Damn Zhou Yi, I will never forgive him again!

When Su's mother saw Zhou Yi's gaze suddenly turn towards her, she shivered with fear and began to play the victim, her face pale: "Xiao Yi... I am your grandmother's savior."

“If I hadn’t risked my life to run into the fire and rescue your grandmother back then, she would have died long ago. Now my leg cramps every time it rains.”

"You promised to treat me and Jiaojiao well, and that you would never kick us out in this lifetime. You can't go back on your word!"

Zhou Yi squinted at Su's mother's crippled leg.

Seeing him looking over, Su's mother deliberately pulled up her trouser legs, revealing the burn scars and the incision from the bone-setting surgery.

Of course he wouldn't kick the Su family mother and daughter out.

He couldn't bear to let those two leave so easily! How was he supposed to lure out the enemies hiding behind the scenes?!

In his past life, he ended up in that situation because, besides the Su family mother and daughter, who knows how many other people were hiding behind the scenes sucking the blood of the Zhou family? Otherwise, how could the Zhou family have collapsed so suddenly in the last year?

Before the truth of the fire is fully investigated, and before any corrupt elements in the company from his past life are exposed who conspired with Su Qingjiao to betray his grandmother, he will not let the Su family mother and daughter out of his sight.

He wanted to lead them step by step into a desperate situation, to subject them to endless torment, until they finally begged for death!

"Ms. Su, of course I won't kick you out. After all, you are Grandma's savior. I personally promised to sign a lifetime employment contract with you."

"What does 'hire' mean, you understand? It means a servant who has to do the work and serve others!"

"Someone, move all of Su's belongings from her room to the maid's quarters!"

"From today onwards, they will be assigned all the dirty and tiring work. All their extra pay beyond that of servants will be confiscated. Remember, in this Zhou family, they are servants! I am the master!"

The maid's quarters were cramped and small. In order to allow Su's mother to get a good rest and to win Su Qingjiao's favor, Zhou Yi had arranged for the mother and daughter to move into the luxurious master bedroom.

They even allowed the mother and daughter to enjoy a life of luxury, being waited on hand and foot.

It's a pity, he's changed his target now, he won't get this kind of treatment anymore, he'll have to work limply now.

Although Su's mother was dissatisfied, she also understood that what she and Su Qingjiao had done today was indeed a bit excessive. At first, she was angry, but after calming down, she felt that Zhou Yi was justified in being angry.

Seeing that Aunt Zhou was still there, Su's mother had no choice but to swallow her humiliation, close her eyes, grit her teeth, and say, "Whatever you say."

Su Qingjiao had just recovered her senses when she heard Zhou Yi tell her to go with her mother to the maid's room. Her face turned ashen, and she said to Zhou Yi sadly, "What did you say?"

"The servants' quarters?"

"How am I supposed to live in that 12-square-meter room? There's nowhere to put my jewelry and clothes!"

"I know I didn't do well today, but there's a reason for that. It's all your fault. If you hadn't hit me first, would I have been so angry? You're a grown man, how can you be so petty!"

"You even said you liked me and would never let me down in this lifetime, ha! Your behavior is truly disgusting!"

"I've seen through you. I was thinking of accepting your advances in a few months, but now it seems you're not worthy of me at all!"

After saying that.

Su Qingjiao covered her face and ran out of the villa in anger.

After running out, Su Qingjiao immediately bought a mask and put it on. After all, her face was so red and swollen that she was concerned about her image and didn't want to be seen and gossiped about.

Afterwards, she took a taxi directly to the Royal Court Hotel, the most upscale hotel in Luzhou, which is also owned by the Zhou Group.

The hotel's overall design is predominantly black, accented with crystals inlaid around the perimeter. Under the illumination of the lights, the countless crystals refract through their multiple angles, creating a dazzling yet sophisticated black that is both eye-catching and elegant without being gaudy. It exudes a mysterious and refined sense of nobility.

The marble floor was covered with a luxurious carpet, making every step feel like walking on clouds.

A retired security guard, over 180cm tall, greeted guests at the entrance and led them to the front desk to check in. Four professionally dressed receptionists stood up and greeted them with smiles, their makeup exquisite and their smiles friendly.

Hello, how can I help you?

The four voices were in unison, sweet, gentle, and pleasant to hear.

A hint of surprise flashed across Su Qingjiao's eyes as she looked at the four exquisitely beautiful women with light makeup, and an inexplicable sense of inferiority crossed her mind.

So what if you're mixed-race? Your bloodline isn't pure!

She's only fit to be a receptionist who sells smiles!

Thinking this way, Su Qingjiao felt a little better. She was the future wife of the Zhou Group, and she didn't need to lower herself to compete with the receptionist in terms of looks.

She raised her chin, gave the receptionist a haughty look, and said, "Call your hotel manager here. Tell him my surname is Su."

The receptionist refused with a smile, and even her verbal refusal sounded like a gentle breeze.

But Su Qingjiao wasn't buying it. In fact, she found the four men's smiles quite sarcastic. What? Couldn't she have the manager serve her?

Su Qingjiao pulled her mask up a little and looked down at her phone, searching for the hotel manager's phone number. She remembered that Zhou Yi had taken her here for dinner last time.

One phone call to the hotel manager!

Three minutes later, the hotel manager rushed to the front desk.

"Hello, Ms. Su, thank you for waiting. These receptionists don't recognize you, which is why they've been so slow to greet you." The hotel manager quickly tried to be friendly as soon as he saw Su Qingjiao.

At the same time, he coldly reprimanded the receptionist: "From now on, you all need to be more respectful to me. Hurry up and book Miss Su a presidential suite."

The receptionist worked on the computer for half a minute, then hesitated before saying, "Manager, the presidential suite is already occupied."

"The adjacent presidential suite has the same view and decor, is that alright?"

The manager apologized to Su Qingjiao sheepishly, his attitude extremely respectful, giving Su Qingjiao plenty of face.

Su Qingjiao thoroughly enjoys the feeling of being fawned over. At first, when Zhou Yi pursued her, she was apprehensive and flattered, feeling out of place in such a high-class place. Now, however, she has completely accepted and enjoys it.
