Zhou Ling got her wish and went through a divorce settlement with Zhao Kun.
During their divorce discussions, the couple had another argument over their daughter, Zhao Xiaoya, being at the police station, because neither of them wanted Zhao Xiaoya as a burden.
Finally, Uncle Hat spoke up, suggesting that it would be better for Zhao Xiaoya to stay with Zhou Ling than with Zhao Kun, thus ending the mutual buck-passing.
Two days later,
Zhou Ling and her daughter traveled from Yanjing to Yunshi by long-distance train.
With the help of the person Zhou Chuan had contacted, they successfully completed the procedures for going abroad.
Standing at the national gate,
Zhou Ling was filled with anticipation for the future. Just thinking about going abroad and living a life of luxury made her eager to arrive at Zhou Chuan's residence as soon as possible.
She became a laughingstock in China, ridiculed by many people across the country.
Now, as she prepares to set foot on foreign soil and begin a new life, she no longer needs to worry about being laughed at by others, because once she goes abroad, no one will know her, and no one will know what happened to her.
"Zhou Chen, Zhou Na, Zhao Kun, and all those who look down on me and laugh at me, you all just wait and see. I, Zhou Ling, will return one day."
"At that time, I will shock you all and make you regret treating me like this."
Clenching her fists, Zhou Ling muttered to herself before carrying Zhao Xiaoya across the border and stepping onto foreign soil.
Zhou Ling was still very excited when she first entered Myanmar territory.
Because everything abroad is new and exciting.
Where is my fourth brother?
"What kind of car did he drive to pick us up?"
After walking for a while, Zhou Ling realized she still hadn't seen Zhou Chuan and couldn't help but ask.
However, the person leading the way smiled and said he didn't know.
Zhou Ling didn't take it seriously.
Not long after,
Zhou Ling was handed over to another group of people.
These people were dressed plainly and drove a dilapidated car. Zhou Ling felt disgusted and annoyed that Zhou Chuan hadn't come himself but instead sent these people who looked like migrant workers to pick her up. It was too embarrassing.
Luxury cars, but where are the bodyguards?
Why are there none at all?
For the first time, Zhou Ling began to doubt whether what Zhou Chuan had told her was true or false. Would Zhou Chuan, who had made millions, not have these things?
However,
Despite her doubts, she found a comforting reason: perhaps Zhou Chuan was rather low-key and didn't want to be high-profile, which was why he deliberately had people dress more plainly.
After all, wealthy people might be targeted.
The more Zhou Ling thought about it, the more reasonable it seemed. "Fourth Brother is so thoughtful. Not flaunting wealth is the best way to protect oneself. Very good. It seems Fourth Brother has grown a lot. No wonder he can earn millions."
However, compared to me, my fourth brother is still a bit lacking. When I see him, I'll have to have a good talk with him and ask him to let me go into business with him. With my intelligence, I'm sure I can earn much more."
Because of her positive expectations, Zhou Ling didn't have high demands for the car. Although it was a bit cramped, she could accept it, since these people were there to protect her.
I don't know how much time has passed.
When Zhou Ling looked up at the window, she realized that the car was not heading towards the city. Instead of tall buildings, she saw mountains.
Where are we going?
Zhou Ling couldn't help but feel a little flustered.
"Hey, where are you taking me? Doesn't my fourth brother live in the city?"
"Miss Zhou, Mr. Zhou's villa is in the mountains. Don't worry, we'll be there soon."
"oh?"
Upon hearing that Zhou Chuan had built a villa in the mountains, Zhou Ling was stunned for a moment. Her worries instantly dissipated, and she secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She had thought she was going to be taken to a remote mountainous area.
It turned out that Zhou Chuan's residence was in the mountains, and he built a villa there. She understood this all too well; wealthy people in China also liked to live in places with beautiful mountains and clear waters, build villas there, and enjoy life.
My fourth brother has learned the ways of the wealthy in China; he certainly knows how to enjoy life.
"The air in the mountains is good, but it's too far from the city, so even if you have a car, it's not convenient."
"When I see my fourth brother, I'll have to talk to him."
Zhou Ling was prepared to use her authority as the older sister to persuade Zhou Chuan to move to another place. She said that the environment in the mountains was good, but life was inconvenient. What was the use of having money if there was nowhere to spend it?
The fourth brother, Zhou Chuan, is still too young; he probably doesn't know who has deceived him.
Another hour passed.
Zhou Ling's buttocks were aching from sitting so long, but they still hadn't reached their destination.
How far is it exactly?
The doubts that had been lingering in Zhou Ling's mind resurfaced.
However, when she asked, the other party still smiled and said it would be soon, saying there were still more than ten minutes left. But after more than ten minutes, it still hadn't arrived, and then said it would be half an hour, leaving Zhou Ling speechless.
“These guys are so unreliable. When I see my fourth brother, I’m going to fire them all.”
"How dare you try to fool me."
Zhou Ling made a decision in her heart.
About an hour later,
When Zhou Ling felt it was already dark, she finally arrived at her destination, standing in front of a building with high walls and a large courtyard.
As soon as she got out of the car, Zhou Ling was slightly shocked.
Is my fourth brother's villa really that big?
Looking around, this isn't just one villa, but several buildings.
Zhou Ling was surprised that Zhou Chuan was being so modest with her. These buildings were worth much more than villas, weren't they?
"This kid is really something. How can he live alone? I need to make him sell everything."
Zhou Ling made another note of something.
"Where is my fourth brother? Has no one told him if I've arrived yet?"
Pulling herself out of her thoughts, Zhou Ling noticed that Zhou Chuan was nowhere to be seen, which made her somewhat dissatisfied. Was her fourth brother, Zhou Chuan, really putting on such an air these days?
But this time, no one answered her.
Not only that,
While she was dawdling, someone suddenly pulled her out of the car.
"What are you doing? You're hurting me! Is this how you work for my fourth brother?"
"Believe it or not, I'll have him fire you?"
Zhou Ling was furious. This person was far too disrespectful to her, daring to pull her like that.
Just as Zhou Ling finished saying this...
Suddenly everything went black, followed by a loud snap.
Zhou Ling stared wide-eyed in disbelief at the man who had slapped her—the same man who had been chatting and laughing with her earlier.
"You hit me?"
"That's exactly what I'm going to do."
“I’ll have my fourth brother fire you. You’re finished.”
Zhou Ling pointed at the man, her voice filled with anger.
After saying that,
Zhou Ling thought the other party would immediately beg for forgiveness and apologize, but things did not go as she expected. After a few seconds of silence, the other party suddenly burst into laughter.
The people around them all burst out laughing.
"You will all be expelled."
Zhou Ling felt that these people were provoking her.
This time, her laughter was even louder after she finished speaking.
Not only that,
With a wave of his hand, the man who seemed to be in charge tied Zhou Ling's hands and snatched her daughter Zhao Xiaoya away.
At this moment, Zhou Ling finally realized that something was wrong.
