"Both families are well-matched. If you really want to bring it up, they might even marry Qin Shengyi to you!"

Xu Yanshu's face suddenly darkened completely, and the veins on his forehead bulged one after another. "Zhou Zehao, are you really that concerned about my love life? This kind of intrusion is really like a bedbug in the gutter!"

"Xu Yanshu, you son of a bitch..."

Before the other party could finish speaking, Xu Yanshu grabbed Zhou Zehao by the collar and then delivered several heavy punches, the force of which increased.

That bastard is really too much, kicking me when I'm down time and time again. Unfortunately, he's already feeling really angry today.

Since he's come to me of his own accord, I have no choice but to teach him a lesson.

Oh shit!

Zhou Zehao fought back just as fiercely, and the two quickly got into a brawl until the staff next door alerted them and called the police.

...

Police station

"Zhou Zehao, can you stop causing me trouble every day? How old are you and you're still fighting with others!" Zhou Shengyu said, hands on his hips, looking extremely annoyed.

Zhou Zehao seemed unconcerned, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth before calmly saying, "Xu Yanshu struck first!"

Xu Yanshu?

Upon hearing the name, Zhou Shengyu paused for a moment before recognizing Xu Yanshu sitting on the other side. After hesitating for a moment, he walked over.

"Yan Shu, I'm sorry, Xiao Hao has caused you trouble..."

“He’s right, I did strike first,” Xu Yanshu interrupted, then unconsciously thought of what Zhou Zehao had said earlier. She glanced to the side and asked casually, “Uncle Zhou, is your search for him going smoothly?”

If being well-matched in social status is really that important, then he might really consider returning to the Zhou family, so that he could be with the young girl legitimately.

On the other hand, he also did not want to experience the sorrow of wanting to care for his parents but finding them gone again.

Recalling the truth she learned from Huang Dongsheng, Xu Yanshu lowered her eyes thoughtfully, realizing that many things could not be blamed on anyone else.

Zhou Shengyu was slightly taken aback. He hadn't expected Xu Yanshu to specifically ask about this matter. Just as he was about to say something, Zhou Zehao rushed up from behind.

"Xu Yanshu, what business is it of yours what our Zhou family's affairs are? Stop meddling in other people's business!"

Xu Yanshu raised his head, and a hint of provocation appeared in his eyes when he looked at Zhou Zehao. "Why is Young Master Zhou reacting so strongly? Are you deliberately hiding something?"

Damn it!

Zhou Zehao cursed inwardly, "You surnamed Xu, stop trying to sow discord here, I..." If that were the case...

"Enough!"

Zhou Shengyu interrupted sharply, reaching out to pull the man behind him. "Yan Shu was just asking a kind question, why are you reacting so strongly?"

"If you keep causing trouble here, I won't mind making you reflect on your actions for a few days."

What kind of kind inquiry? Xu Yanshu was deliberately provoking him.

Zhou Zehao frowned in dissatisfaction, but due to Zhou Shengyu's authority, he didn't say anything more, although his face remained gloomy.

This scene touched Xu Yanshu deeply. He realized that fatherly love in this world is probably all the same. When he was a teenager, his adoptive father had also patiently taught him in the same way.

Jiang Zhengyu, who had also received a call at the same time, rushed over. When he saw the three of them standing together, he was dumbfounded. What was going on?

Zhou Shengyu recognized the newcomer and then realized, "Young man, we meet again. I didn't expect you to know Yan Shu as well!"

Unexpectedly, the other party remembered him, and Jiang Zhengyu felt inexplicably embarrassed. He simply nodded slightly to show his agreement.

He then felt a hostile gaze and couldn't help but find it somewhat amusing; Zhou Zehao seemed to really value the Zhou family's inheritance rights.

“In that case, we’ll be going now!” Zhou Shengyu looked at Xu Yanshu again and said to himself, “We can have a proper talk later when we have time.”

What did the old man want to talk to Xu Yanshu about?

Upon hearing this, Zhou Zehao immediately became vigilant, feeling uneasy and vaguely sensing that the course of events seemed to be slipping out of his control.

After the father and son left, Jiang Zhengyu sat down next to Xu Yanshu.

"What's going on? Why are you all fighting all of a sudden?!"

Xu Yanshu felt a moment of unease before truthfully replying, "He went to the entrance of my studio to provoke me, and I couldn't help but beat him up."

It turns out Xu Yanshu struck first!

Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhengyu was somewhat surprised. Yan Shu was always as steady as a rock, and Zhou Zehao had caused quite a bit of trouble before. Now, he was actually fighting with someone right at the studio entrance without any regard for the consequences.

The policewoman came out and looked at Xu Yanshu, "Where is the person who bailed you out?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhengyu stood up, signed the bail form, and the two then left the police station.

Has Shengyi agreed to date him?

ah?

Jiang Zhengyu, who was driving, subconsciously came back to his senses. His brain short-circuited for a moment before he remembered the WeChat message he had just sent to Xu Yanshu.

He noticed Xu Yanshu's dejected expression out of the corner of his eye, and he tried hard to suppress the urge to smile.

"Well, she didn't refuse!" Jiang Zhengyu replied in a deep voice. "You broke up with her for no reason, and she definitely won't be able to come to her senses for a while, so she simply arranged for her aunt to introduce her to someone else."
