"So, you two came to see me together because you suspect me?"
"You think I told him about your embarrassing moments and let him laugh at you?"
Hearing this, Zhou Na immediately understood what her two younger siblings meant: they were blaming Zhou Chen for being deceived.
Whoosh!
In an instant, Zhou Na's face turned cold.
She knew these two were stupid, but she didn't expect them to be so hopelessly stupid.
“I told you not to provoke him, but you think I’m afraid of him? So, to please him, I even spilled my own brother’s and sister’s embarrassing secrets. In your hearts, am I, as the older sister, really that despicable?”
Zhou Na gave a self-deprecating smile, but at the same time, she couldn't help feeling chilled to the bone.
She had always wanted to get away from Fanjia County and her two younger siblings, but when she actually had the ability to do so, she found that she couldn't be that ruthless.
Regardless, they are related by blood.
Unlike Zhou Chen,
Later, Zhou Ling and Zhou Chuan came to live with her, and she took on the responsibility of being the older sister. However, she was unable to take care of them in the same way that Zhou Chen had taken care of the three siblings before.
However, she still stepped in to help them when they encountered difficulties.
Unexpectedly, these two are now on the same side and questioning her.
Zhou Chuan and Zhou Ling both sensed Zhou Na's anger, which made them realize that they might have really misunderstood Zhou Na.
"Second sister, my fourth brother and I went to see him today, intending to humiliate him, but he used this incident to provoke my fourth brother. And the only ones who know about this are the three of us siblings, so neither of us can tell him, therefore..."
Zhou Ling explained.
"So, you suspect me?"
Zhou Na smiled, but it was a bitter smile, her eyes filled with utter disappointment towards the two of them.
"Second sister, that's not what we meant. It's just that we don't understand how he found out about this. It couldn't have been Uncle Hat who told him..."
As Zhou Chuan was speaking, he suddenly realized something, slapped his thigh, and exclaimed with a look of sudden realization, "I know what's going on!"
"Second sister, I'm sorry, I misunderstood you. This is my fault."
Zhou Chuan thought of a phone call he received early that morning and wondered why the other party was asking so many questions. He assumed the other party was Uncle Hat and explained in detail.
That person was definitely not Uncle Hat.
The person who called to extract information was sent by Zhou Chen, so Zhou Chen knew the whole story, which explained everything.
"Fourth brother, what exactly happened?"
Zhou Ling looked confused and pressed for an answer.
Zhou Chuan quickly offered an explanation.
After hearing Zhou Chuan's description, the truth came to light. Zhou Ling was too ashamed to look at Zhou Na and lowered her head in shame.
"Second sister, I...I'm sorry."
Zhou Ling took the initiative to apologize.
Zhou Chuan apologized again.
Zhou Na's complexion did not improve as a result; her face remained expressionless.
She didn't want to talk to those two idiots right now. She glanced at her watch, said "Go back to class," and turned to leave.
Zhou Chuan and Zhou Ling were left standing there, looking at each other in bewilderment.
"Third sister, what should we do? Second sister seems really angry with us. I told you that second sister would never do such a thing. Before, Zhou Chen outshone her in every way at school, and her hatred for Zhou Chen is no less than ours. How could she possibly reveal our shameful deeds to him?"
Zhou Chuan said this after the fact.
Zhou Ling's face was flushed with anxiety. After all, it was she who had started it. "It was indeed my fault for not thinking things through, but I didn't expect that you, Fourth Brother, would be the one to say it. You can't blame me entirely, Fourth Brother, you bear a lot of responsibility."
Zhou Ling shifted the blame to Zhou Chuan.
She may have made a mistake, but Zhou Chuan's mistake is even greater.
The two were silent for a while.
Zhou Ling broke the silence, "Alright, let's put this matter behind us. Second Sister was angered by us, so let's try to make amends. I think Second Sister was angry not only because of this, but also because of why you didn't leave, Fourth Brother, and why you went to find Zhou Chen again. Second Sister doesn't know the truth, so she's angry with us. We need to explain things to Second Sister properly."
The two decided to have lunch first and come back in the afternoon.
The two of them are the younger ones and lack consideration in their actions. As the older sister, Zhou Na should be more tolerant and understanding of them, instead of holding a grudge.
Moreover, they are siblings with an unbreakable blood bond, and we cannot let trivial matters affect their relationship.
After eating at a nearby restaurant, the two stayed in the car, waiting for school to end. They endured three or four hours until the last class finally ended.
Zhou Chuan took the initiative to call Zhou Na, expressing his desire to explain things to her in person.
Seeing that Zhou Na was willing to come, Zhou Chuan and Zhou Ling breathed a sigh of relief, which meant that Zhou Na was not really angry.
I waited for seven or eight minutes.
Zhou Na has arrived.
Before Zhou Na could speak, Zhou Chuan immediately explained why he hadn't left Yanjing.
A moment later, Zhou Na's face was no longer cold; she understood the truth.
"Second sister, this Mr. Wu is very powerful. Although I don't know what conflict he has with Zhou Chen, he is just like us, he wants to see Zhou Chen's business go bankrupt."
"Moreover, Mr. Wu is very generous. Although I was used by him and became his pawn, I don't think it matters. As long as Zhou Chen loses everything, this little grievance is nothing."
"President Wu asked me to poach Zhou Chen's people, and he even provided me with money and a car, so I'm not leaving. I went to see Zhou Chen today..."
Zhou Chuan then explained his meeting with Zhou Chen earlier that day, emphasizing that he had not deliberately concealed it, but was doing it for Wu Bin.
"Second sister, third sister and I really know we were wrong. We've been reflecting on it all afternoon and we know that we can't doubt you. We promise that nothing like this will ever happen again. Please forgive us, second sister."
"Second sister, I'm sorry."
After Zhou Chuan finished speaking, Zhou Ling apologized again.
If it weren't for blood ties, Zhou Na would never have forgiven them and would have immediately broken off all ties with them. But they were her own brother and sister, and since they had sincerely apologized, she could let the matter go.
Moreover, this Mr. Wu seems to be no ordinary person. Zhou Chuan was given the task of poaching the management of Zhou Chen's company, and there are a lot of negative news about Zhou Chen's business on the Internet. Obviously, this Mr. Wu has the means and the brains.
Given her considerable wealth, she might actually leave Zhou Chen with nothing, losing everything, which would be tantamount to her standing up for the siblings.
This is a good thing for them, not to mention that Zhou Chuan also benefits from this.
"Hehe, second sister, I knew you wouldn't hold it against us and wouldn't get really angry."
Seeing that Zhou Na was no longer serious, Zhou Chuan and Zhou Ling were both delighted.
