"Alright, you can call Shengyi another day!" Qin Yao said to herself, amused and exasperated by Shengyi's childish temper. Then, she changed the subject, "Guess who I saw at the Zhou family's house yesterday?"

"Xu Yanshu, right? I heard that Zhou Shengyu officially announced his identity yesterday."

Qin Yao rolled her eyes in annoyance. "Besides Xu Yanshu, his ex-wife is here too!"

"Not only did he arrive, but he stayed by Shen Wei's side throughout the first half of the event. At that time, many people were curious about his relationship with the Zhou family."

Previously, any incidents that occurred were always attributed to misunderstandings, but now she has witnessed it firsthand.

Thinking about it, a hint of anger suddenly appeared on Qin Yao's well-maintained face. Xu Yanshu's methods of handling things were really not very clever. It was just a pity that Shengyi was completely deceived by such a person.

Wow?

Ouyang Ming was puzzled. These two people were already divorced, so why would they invite Xie Huanyu to an event like yesterday?

After regaining his senses, Ouyang Ming snorted coldly indignantly, his expression extremely gloomy. "Hmph! The Zhou family's ambitions are truly considerable."

"On one hand, they want us to marry our daughter to him, and on the other hand, they're helping Xu Yanshu appease his ex-wife!"

"It's best to know what's going on in your mind, so you don't get misled by their words later!" Qin Yao said noncommittally, her expression equally unfriendly.

At the same time, Zhou Shengyu also called Zhou Zehao over.

"Why did you invite Xie Huanyu to yesterday's occasion? Now that your older brother and she are divorced, our family should keep our distance from her."

By now, more than one busybody has called to ask Xie Huanyu about his relationship with the Zhou family, and he doesn't know how to answer.

"You didn't say before that we couldn't invite her," Zhou Zehao shrugged innocently, replying nonchalantly, "Besides, this is Chengdu."

"Not many people know that she is the eldest brother's ex-wife, and even if we take a step back, divorce is not a shameful thing."

He wanted to stir up trouble, the more chaotic the better, advocating for a "the more the merrier" mentality.

This self-righteousness made Zhou Shengyu even angrier, and he raised his eyes to glare at the person fiercely.

In order to remarry, she was willing to risk her reputation to frame Yan Shu. Before this, he really didn't realize that Xie Huanyu was such a ruthless girl.

Before the divorce, Xie Huanyu never treated Yan Shu like a human being; on the contrary, after the divorce, she began to pester him relentlessly.

"That Xie Huanyu is no good person. You should stay away from her in the future!"

"You disliked Mu Yichen before, and now you're saying Xie Huanyu isn't a good person. Dad, isn't it me you don't like?"

"you……"

"I have other things to do, so I won't keep arguing with you!" With that, Zhou Zehao turned around and left.

He had only taken a couple of steps when he ran into Shen Wei, who was delivering fruit.

"What's wrong?"

"Dad doesn't like me, so I won't stay here and upset him."

Shen Wei was a little confused by these words, and when she turned to look inside, she found that Zhou Shengyu's face was also terribly gloomy.

"What's wrong? Don't scold him like that, it will only make him more distant from us!"

"He's the one who started arguing with me!" Zhou Shengyu waved his hand impatiently and said irritably, "I just asked him why he invited Xie Huanyu yesterday, and he kept contradicting me."

No one knows a son better than his father. How could he not know what Xiao Hao was thinking? He just wanted to use this opportunity to embarrass Yan Shu.

Knowing this, he felt angry. He thought he had been very careful in balancing the relationship between the two brothers, but he never expected things to turn out this way.

So that's how it is.

Shen Wei suddenly realized what was going on. She sighed helplessly and then walked around the desk to Zhou Shengyu's side.

She reached out and patted the other person's shoulder, speaking gently to comfort them.

"Xiao Hao has always been like this. The two brothers haven't spent much time together before, so it's inevitable that they'll have some disagreements."

"Be patient, and things will change eventually if you teach slowly."

Sensing the worried look in his lover's eyes, Zhou Shengyu quickly softened his expression and took Shen Wei's hand in his.

"Yes, don't worry, I won't mistreat any of the children."

As soon as Qin Shengyi stepped out of the company, he sensed someone following him and immediately became alert.

When she reached a more crowded area, she decisively turned around to confront the other person, only to unexpectedly see a familiar face.

"Mu Yichen? What are you doing here?"

Caught off guard by the other person's sudden turn, Mu Yichen felt a moment of awkwardness, then handed the red rose in his hand to the person in front of him.

"I'm here on a business trip, so I thought I'd drop by and see you!"

On business trip?

Qin Shengyi was skeptical. Would someone who only knew how to eat, drink, and have fun really come abroad on a business trip? And the way he appeared in such a frightening way was something she simply couldn't accept.

Seeing that the other party was hesitant to accept the flowers, a sinister glint flashed in Mu Yichen's eyes, and he then spoke up to prompt them.

"Shengyi, I specially chose this bouquet of roses for you, please accept it!"

Qin Shengyi waved his hand, politely declining, saying, "Isn't that inappropriate?"
