Is it Zhao Kun's dismissal by Hu Haibing that's being blamed on him?
It was his fault that he bought those fifty bungalows first, ruining Zhao Kun's future.
They threatened to expose his identity as the mysterious person who received the demolition compensation, demanding money from him in exchange for compensation.
Zhou Ling, Zhou Ling, have you lost your mind?
Who gave you the courage? Who gave you the confidence? Do you think I'd spoil you?
After listening to Zhou Ling's rambling, Zhou Chen was genuinely amused and exasperated.
You, Zhou Ling, have absolutely no shame when it comes to money. You've come to him time and time again, and you still manage to make such outrageous demands. It's so outrageous it's beyond belief.
What do you mean by laughing?
Zhou Ling felt insulted, especially by the look of contempt in Zhou Chen's eyes, which she found particularly offensive. This was because she had been met with the same sarcastic gaze every time she had approached Zhou Chen before.
He must be despising himself.
Zhou Ling knew this in her heart.
But now that things have come to this point, Zhou Chen, are you still planning to disagree?
Aren't you afraid of losing your reputation and being ridiculed by everyone?
If Zhou Chen had the ability to read minds, he would burst out laughing if he heard Zhou Ling's thoughts at this moment. He would be ridiculed? That would be utterly ridiculous. If anyone should be ridiculed, it would be Zhou Ling.
"I laugh at you for being an idiot. Your man is incompetent and has no character. He got fired and you're blaming me? Zhou Ling, listen to this! Are you even speaking human language?"
"And your skin is thicker than a city wall. You want money from me? You could poke your face with a needle and still not get through. Your skin is just too thick. Of course, it's also possible that you don't have a face at all and don't know what face is. Otherwise, why would you come to me again and again?"
You clearly despise and look down on me, yet you keep coming to me seeking attention and showing off. Now you're asking for favors. You're like a clown, jumping around and bouncing about. It's truly pathetic to be a person like you. In my opinion, you shouldn't be human; go be an animal. That way, I can understand your behavior.
Zhou Chen was really fed up with Zhou Ling. She would pop up every now and then to annoy him. Including this time, it was the umpteenth time. She was like a piece of chewing gum that he couldn't get rid of.
Therefore,
He spoke harsher than ever before, intending to teach Zhou Ling a lesson. If she tried to take advantage of him, she would be finished, no matter how much he scolded her.
You arrogantly believe that the person who bought the bungalow is Sun Liancheng, and treat him as Sun Liancheng's subordinate. You think Sun Liancheng will reward you with hundreds of thousands of yuan? You are so shameless. If you knew the truth, that he took all the demolition compensation, wouldn't you be even more crazy?
Zhou Chen didn't want to explain; facing the shameless Zhou Ling, he could simply retort.
As for compromise, haha, that's not an option.
So what if he's exposed as the mysterious person who received the demolition compensation? Is he afraid?
He didn't want people to know, he just didn't want to be in the spotlight, not that he was really afraid of the matter being exposed.
If you, Zhou Ling, think you can control him with this, you're just being naive.
Faced with this barrage of attacks, Zhou Ling and Zhou Na were both a little stunned. They hadn't expected Zhou Chen to retaliate so directly and so vehemently.
This is quite different from the Zhou Chen they remember.
You should know that even on previous occasions when they approached Zhou Chen, he never spoke as directly as he did today.
Just now, Zhou Chen swore on the spot.
"You dare to insult me, Zhou Chen? You forced us into this! You don't care about your reputation anymore, do you? Fine, fine, I... I'll grant your wish!"
Having said all that, Zhou Ling understood perfectly well that Zhou Chen wouldn't compromise; otherwise, he wouldn't have directly called her an idiot.
This made him lose all face in front of everyone.
Even with Zhou Na by her side, it was still of no use.
"Calling you an ingrate is too lenient. If you shamelessly ask me for money again, I'll beat you up. Get out of here!"
"Seeing ungrateful trash like you makes me feel disgusted. Get out of here!"
Zhou Chen waved his hand with extreme disgust, treating Zhou Ling like a cockroach. No, in Zhou Chen's mind, Zhou Ling was even less than a cockroach; at least a cockroach wasn't as disgusting as Zhou Ling.
Feeling utterly humiliated, Zhou Ling felt utterly disgraced. Although she had never had much dignity to begin with, she was still filled with intense hatred.
"Zhou Chen, you'll regret this!"
"You wait!"
Seeing that many people were looking at her and that she had already attracted the attention of some students, Zhou Ling decided not to linger and immediately turned around and left to avoid being laughed at by more people.
Seeing this, Zhou Na glanced at Zhou Chen with a complicated expression, and then quickly fled as well.
She didn't want to suffer the same scolding as Zhou Ling.
At this moment, Zhou Na felt extremely fortunate that she was only responsible for providing support and not for asking Zhou Chen for money; otherwise, she would have been the one who lost face the most.
The crowd, which hadn't yet managed to gather, dispersed upon seeing this.
Zhou Chen flicked the collar on both sides of his shirt, seemingly to brush off dust. In reality, he was annoyed that he had been too close to Zhou Ling and had gotten some of Zhou Ling's spittle on his clothes. He couldn't wear the shirt anymore and had to throw it away as soon as he got home.
On the other end,
Like stray dogs, the two sisters fled quickly, their expressions completely different from when they were discussing their strategy.
Both of them had somber faces.
Not only did I not gain anything today, but I also got a good scolding and was thoroughly humiliated.
Zhou Ling felt angry, resentful, and wronged.
She decided to expose Zhou Chen, so that jealous and envious people would cause trouble for Zhou Chen.
"I'll make him lose all his reputation, I'll make him regret what he did to me today!"
"Zhou Chen, you will regret this, I swear."
"If I don't make you a rat crossing the street, hated by everyone, I, Zhou Ling, will take your surname."
Zhou Ling was so angry that she didn't even notice the flaws in her own words.
Zhou Na, on the other hand, looked preoccupied and serious, and reminded him, "Your method may not work. It's obvious that he's not afraid of being exposed."
Zhou Chen's attitude made Zhou Na realize that she would not compromise.
Zhou Chen is no longer the older brother they used to know, the one who cared for them, indulged them, and gave them all the good things.
Zhou Chen has changed; she has become increasingly unfamiliar and indifferent.
“Whether he’s afraid or not, I will expose him. I will make him the center of attention and the subject of gossip.”
Zhou Ling was blinded by anger.
Seeing this, Zhou Na couldn't help but shake her head secretly. In fact, there was something she didn't say: even if Zhou Ling were exposed, not many people would believe it, because Zhou Ling's previous actions had already left a deep impression on some people as ungrateful.
Continuing to smear Zhou Chen will only backfire and make him even more despised.
But Zhou Na knew even better that at this point, even if she reminded her, it would be useless and she couldn't stop the furious Zhou Ling.
