"Ah...it's nothing, I just told my assistant about tomorrow's meeting."
Shen Wei had only asked casually, but she didn't expect the other person to be so nervous, with their eyes darting around. She immediately realized that the other person was hiding something from her.
Slamming the fruit platter down on the table, Shen Wei coldly questioned, "Tell me, what are you hiding from me?"
"I...please don't be angry."
...
"Brother, is it convenient for us to talk?"
Upon seeing the person who suddenly appeared before him, Xu Yanshu unconsciously frowned and had no choice but to temporarily put down what he was doing and follow Zhou Zehao out into the corridor.
"You haven't been home these past few days. Are you afraid you won't be able to control yourself and will take action against me?" Looking at the indifferent look on the person next to him, Zhou Zehao raised an eyebrow with interest and said, nodding to himself as he spoke.
"Yes, if you lay a hand on me, your image as a good son that you've always maintained will be completely ruined!"
As he spoke, he glanced inside and noticed that the studio was noticeably busier than before, his eyes deepening imperceptibly.
No wonder he spoke so emphatically before that he would be in such a hurry to get Xu Yanshu into the group. But now it seems that this old man has been secretly providing Xu Yanshu with a lot of resources and connections.
He just didn't want to upset his mother; he didn't care about appearances or anything like that...
Xu Yanshu frowned slightly in disapproval, but made no attempt to explain.
"Heaven is watching what people do," Xu Yanshu turned to Zhou Zehao and said in a meaningful tone, "Do you believe in karma and retribution?"
"Retribution? Ha! What a load of rubbish!"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Zehao couldn't help but scoff, his eyes filled with sarcasm. "If there really is any retribution, I should be in the eighteenth level of hell."
Damn it!
Xu Yanshu's hands, which had been hanging by his sides, suddenly clenched into fists. He gritted his teeth, and the veins on his forehead bulged outwards one after another.
If they're targeting him, no matter what underhanded methods they use, he'll accept them all without hesitation.
But these scoundrels, in collusion with Mu Yichen, set their sights on the little girl.
Out of the corner of his eye, Zhou Zehao caught a glimpse of Xu Yanshu's ashen face and curled his lips in satisfaction. Then, as if suddenly remembering something, he said, "Oh right, you don't know yet, Qin Yao just spoke to me alone. It seems she can't do anything to me either!"
Damn it!
Xu Yanshu, unable to contain himself any longer, spat inwardly and turned around to punch Zhou Zehao hard in the face.
Since they've come to us willingly, there's no need to hesitate.
Caught off guard, Zhou Zehao staggered back two steps uncontrollably. After regaining his senses, he retorted defiantly.
Before long, the two of them were wrestling.
What's going on?
He Wengang stepped out of the elevator and saw this scene. After being stunned for a moment, he rushed over to break up the fight.
However, neither of them showed any mercy, and seeing that he couldn't stop them, He Wen had no choice but to call the police.
Shen Wei had just learned the whole story from Zhou Shengyu and hadn't even had time to process it when she received a call from the police station. Helpless, she had no choice but to go to the police station with Zhou Shengyu to bail her out.
Seeing the two people with bruised and swollen faces, the couple couldn't help but feel exasperated.
Zhou Shengyu was about to say something to reprimand her, but Shen Wei stopped him at the last moment, saying, "Alright, let's go back first!"
The four family members rode in the same car back to the Zhou family mansion, but no one spoke; the atmosphere was eerily silent.
So she already knew?
Xu Yanshu carefully observed Shen Wei's expression through the rearview mirror, feeling somewhat annoyed and regretting that he hadn't controlled himself earlier.
"Alright, you and your son don't need to hide anything from me anymore," Shen Wei waved her hand, breaking the silence on her own, "I know everything I need to know!"
She had to admit that she felt quite conflicted when Lao Zhou told her about these things.
In her opinion, although Xiao Hao was occasionally rebellious, he was definitely not someone who couldn't distinguish right from wrong. However, she never expected that he would go to such extremes as to incite Mu Yichen to kidnap Qin Shengyi.
What's even more infuriating is that, despite such a major incident, Lao Zhou chose to conceal it because he was worried about his health, which is simply incomprehensible.
knew?
Xu Yanshu tensed up for a moment, but when he looked up again to confirm that Shen Wei was alright, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, though he couldn't help feeling a little uneasy.
So Old Shen didn't know all this before! Zhou Zehao raised an eyebrow in surprise; he really hadn't expected this.
Having calmed her guilty conscience somewhat, Shen Wei spoke again, her tone inevitably carrying a hint of reproach.
"Xiao Hao, you really went too far this time!"
"Okay, Mom, I promise I won't do it again next time," Zhou Zehao readily agreed.
That's all bullshit!
Zhou Shengyu wanted to scold her, but he hesitated because his wife was still there. His sharply defined profile showed a deep anger.
They were talking so nicely on the phone just now, but in the blink of an eye they've come to cause trouble for Yan Shu, and the two brothers even got into a fight that ended up at the police station.
"If you two brothers really have a conflict, I don't mind you resolving it yourselves, but there's only one thing,"
"You absolutely cannot let innocent people get involved, or I will never let you two off the hook, do you hear me?"
She had already thought things through very clearly on her way here.
Judging from this, it seems that Yan Shu and Xiao Hao will find it difficult to get along peacefully for the time being. Since that's the case, there's no need for them to force anything. They just need to make their bottom line clear as soon as possible.
Xu Yanshu and Zhou Zehao agreed in gruff voices one after the other. Seeing that Shen Wei's expression did not soften for a long time, neither of them said anything.
"Old Shen, don't be angry. I'll definitely teach him a lesson later..."
"Stop trying to confuse me!" Dodging the other person's hand that was about to grab her, Shen raised her eyes and glared at Zhou Shengyu with annoyance. "You're trying to hide something this big from me!"
"This behavior is extremely egregious. I'll settle the score with you later!"
He tried to cover it up, but the two men ended up in the police station in no time.
They just don't know how to save face for themselves when it comes to their children...
To avoid adding fuel to the fire, Zhou Shengyu awkwardly fell silent. He really didn't expect that Weiwei would discover his weakness so quickly.
It's rare to see this old man get his comeuppance.
Seeing this, a hint of interest flashed in Zhou Zehao's eyes, and the corners of his lips curled up imperceptibly.
