Chapter 25: Love is not yet awakened



"Who set this family motto?" Zhou De's flattering face flashed through Mu Ci's mind. It was really inconsistent with this murderous family motto.

Zhou Shuo smiled and said, "Second Brother! Eldest and Third Brothers have voted, and Master can't object, so it's settled. Third Brother said, the world is treacherous, and if you can't make it, just retreat. The most important thing in life is to be happy and at ease. Anything that makes you uncomfortable is not worth it and has no meaning."

Liu Ming and Mu Ci looked at each other and were both surprised.

Liu Ming couldn't help but ask, "Then, has the young lady ever been wronged in the Zhou family?"

Zhou Shuo nodded. "That's for sure. To the Zhou family, I'm an intruder. It's normal for them to dislike me."

Mu Ci's face darkened. "You are their biological daughter! You were lost when you were so young, and not only do they not feel guilty about you, but they dislike you? They let you suffer?"

This Zhou De is really hateful!

Zhou Shuo sighed, "Yes, I'm angry too. Master and fellow apprentices never gave up on helping me find my biological parents. I finally found them, but they already had an adopted daughter. They adopted Zhou Le from the orphanage a year after I went missing, just to replace me and make up for the pain of losing their daughter. More than a decade has passed, and Zhou Le has long been in their hearts. So, I, their biological daughter, am no longer that important. I originally thought, let it be, just meet once, and let each other go, and that's it. I'm already grown up, and it doesn't matter whether I have a biological family or not."

"Who knew that my brother, oh, Zhou Cong, suddenly changed from being indifferent to being enthusiastic, and insisted on keeping me at home. This pissed off Zhou Le, and she took sleeping pills and cut her wrists, making a fuss about leaving the Zhou family. My mother cried bitterly and told Zhou Cong that I must be sent away. She only had one daughter, Zhou Le. She could give me more money, but I had to go. She couldn't live without Zhou Le." There was a little sadness in Zhou Shuo's voice.

After all, if you don’t know that you have biological parents, that’s fine. However, if you know, and even when they are right in front of you, but they are not acknowledged or accepted, that is another kind of unacceptable hurt.

"Zhou Cong then told me why he wanted to keep me. He checked and found that my horoscope was the most compatible with my brother's. Since I'm the daughter of the Zhou family, we shouldn't waste this resource. I'm a homeless orphan anyway, so why not marry me off as the eldest daughter of the Zhou family? First, it would find the best place for me, and second, it would contribute to the Zhou family."

"After hearing what he said, Zhou Le stopped making a fuss, and my mother stopped crying. Instead, the whole family persuaded me to marry the eldest son of the Mu family as a bride for good luck, and they put me under house arrest and sent people to watch me 24 hours a day. I thought about it and decided to agree. My master said that the grace of biological parents is as heavy as a mountain, so I should repay them, but that's all. So, I agreed, but from then on I have no relationship with the Zhou family. I have severed my family ties with them, and I have also cut off their idea of using me to get involved with the innocent Mu family." Zhou Shuo was clear-minded and very calm.

Mu Ci waved to Zhou Shuo and asked her to sit next to him.

Liu Ming retreated silently with shock in his heart.

Zhou Shuo was still feeling a little depressed. He climbed onto the bed with his head down and leaned on Mu Ci's shoulder. "My brothers were all kicked out by the master at the age of eighteen. They said that eighteen was an adult and had to support themselves. I was the only one who left the master at the age of twenty. I didn't intend to stay in the Zhou family and rely on them, but I am still a little sad when they did this."

This was the first time Zhou Shuo showed unhappiness since they met.

Mu Ci reached out and embraced Zhou Shuo distressedly, "We both have no fathers or mothers who love us, how perfect a match are we? Now we have our own family, we don't need others to be nice to us, we just need to be nice to each other, don't you think?"

Zhou Shuo's emotions came and went quickly. She sat up straight, looked at Mu Ci, and said with a smile, "Okay! I thought so too. Although it's different from what I thought at the beginning, I met my brother, so this result is still good. Let's live a good and happy life in the future!"

She put Mu Ci's hand back on her shoulder and sighed, "Since I left Master, no one has warmed me like this. It's so nice!"

Mu Ci's loving smile was a little bitter. This girl knew everything, even the ways of the world, but she knew nothing about the word "love".

If she were to marry someone else, she would probably be more cautious, but because the person she was marrying was him, she was completely at ease and depended on him steadily, but she had no idea about marriage.

What else could he do? Of course he had to pamper the girl he fell in love with to the end.

This is a good idea. It locks her by your side before she falls in love. It is also a foolproof method.

He reached out and rubbed Zhou Shuo's head, and made a small account of everyone in the Zhou family in his mind. He would make them pay it back when he had the chance. There is no such thing as taking advantage of someone and then being ungrateful.

At this moment, the Zhou brothers and sisters who were charged were standing excitedly at the door of the private club of the second young master of the Mu family. Zhou Cong took out two blue invitations and handed them to the guard very proudly. The guard took them and looked at them, with an expression that was difficult to describe.

Four or five young men strode over, and the guard bowed and greeted them: "Mr. Chen, Mr. Hua, Mr. Li, Mr. Ma, please come in, please come in!"

A few people nodded slightly, looked at the Zhou brothers and sisters with some curiosity, and strode in.

Zhou Le couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Why don't they have an invitation?"

The guard casually said, "They are the Second Young Master's childhood friends. They don't need invitations. Only strangers need them."

Zhou Le suddenly felt his face burning.

The guard respectfully returned the invitation to them, "Master Zhou, Miss Zhou, please come in."

Zhou Cong's excitement was also mixed with a bit of nervousness.

Fortunately, the receptionists were very polite, which helped the Zhou siblings regain some of their self-esteem.

As we entered the club, we were overwhelmed by waves of sound. Along with the deafening music, a round stage came into view. A group of girls in white short skirts were singing and dancing on the stage. The booths below were almost full. Some people were clapping and clapping for the performance on the stage, while others were gathered in groups of three or four, toasting and chatting.
