Chapter 552: Requesting Demotion



"Why do you care about them..." Zhai Zhengrong said unhappily, "You are the father and they are the sons. Besides, without the Zhai family, how could they be promoted so quickly?"

"If they have any complaints, let them come to me and I will deal with them."

Zhai Shixiong forced out a bitter smile, "It is indeed me who harmed you and the Zhai family. Dad is so sad..."

"Dad..." Zhai Zhengrong held his hands and squatted down, "The future of the Zhai family does not depend on us, but on Yu Mo and the others."

"The son has served grandfather for so many years. He is no longer able to shoulder the responsibility of the Zhai family's future. It is time for the younger generation to take over."

At this moment, the study door was knocked again, and Zhai Jiu shouted at the door: "Brother, is Dad here?"

"Xiaojiu, come in,"

Zhai Zhengrong winked at Zhai Jiu who had just walked in, and Zhai Jiu blinked twice.

He walked over and rolled his eyes at Zhai Shixiong, "Dad, you should use the same strength you used to hit me. If anyone dares to say something unpleasant, just pick up the stick and beat him."

"What? You had the strength to beat me, but not others? Dad, you are biased..."

"Get out..." Zhai Shixiong felt itchy when he saw Zhai Jiu's face.

Zhai Jiu talked a lot in front of him with a laugh, and Zhai Shixiong lost all his messy thoughts and now only wanted to beat someone up.

After the two left, Zhai Zhengrong chuckled helplessly, "It still has to be the youngest."

Even though Zhai Shixiong was always very annoyed with Zhai Jiu, he was still the one he loved the most.

...

In mid-autumn, the sweet osmanthus fragrance fills the courtyard, and the air is filled with a hint of sweetness.

The Mu family compound.

Fu Xiao expressed her desire to go to Hong Kong City to Mu Lianshen on the phone. The person on the other end was silent for a long time. She clearly felt that Mu Lianshen took a deep breath and asked, "Did Chen Xingzhou instigate you?"

Having been keeping an eye on him, Mu Lianshen naturally knew that he had accepted the Gangcheng mission from Si Chen.

"Uh..." She wanted to say no, but before she could open her mouth, the person on the other end spoke again: "Let that guy answer the phone..."

The microphone was not very soundproof, so Shen Xingzhou next to him naturally heard what he said, came over, and greeted him with a sullen smile, "Uncle Mu..."

"Chen Xingzhou, you seem a little drifting lately..." His tone was heavy and cold.

Shen Xingzhou glanced at Fu Xiao who was covering his mouth and laughing beside him. What could he say? Just bear with it.

So next, he listened to Mu Lianshen for about five minutes. Although he didn't say a single swear word, the serious and majestic tone of the old father-in-law really made Shen Xingzhou sweat.

I don’t know what image he has become in Mu Lianshen’s mind after this incident.

He glanced at Fu Xiao resentfully.

The latter laughed out loud, and when she heard Mu Lianshen pause, she stepped forward and took the microphone, "Dad, it's not his fault, I wanted to go myself."

Mu Lianshen sneered, "If it weren't for him, would you have thought of going?"

Fu Xiao was speechless. It's true.

She said in a weaker tone, "I encountered some problems in the experiment. I have a senior fellow at HKU, so I'll go and ask for his advice."

"I think it should be possible for Chen Xingzhou to bring a few words to you this time."

Fu Xiao argued, "Dad, I have to learn everything about the experiment, and he doesn't understand it at all."

Mu Lianshen sighed: "You just have to go, right?"

"Hey, Dad,... well, don't you understand me? I really want to go," she continued pitifully, "Of course, I will still listen to you. If you don't want me to go, then I... won't go."

Mu Lianshen sighed helplessly again, "Wait, I'll try."

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

Fu Xiao put the microphone away with a smile, then turned around to see Shen Xingzhou staring at her with a sullen look on his face while lying on the table.

She walked over with a smile and squeezed his shoulder. "I can accompany you to Hong Kong City for just a few scoldings. You've made a profit, kid."

Shen Xingzhou pulled her hand over and put it to his lips, "Well, I made a lot of money."

He chuckled, "Are you really going?"

"What?" Fu Xiao pulled his hand back, "Do you have any objections?"

"I'm concerned about your safety,"

She glared at him, "You can't protect me?"

He curled his lips and smiled, "Of course you can, go if you want."

"Hey, I don't know if Dad can handle it."

In the northwest, Mu Lianshen hung up the phone, and Wei Xuezhe, who was sitting opposite him, asked with a smile: "Is your daughter going to Hong Kong City?"

"Um,"

"It's hard for the leader to agree,"

Mu Lianshen nodded, "Let's give it a try. What else can we do? That girl wants to go."

"Then you try it,"

Wei Xue Ze stopped smiling and asked, "Do you care about the Zhai family's affairs?"

Mu Lianshen sneered, "Zhai Zhengguang is targeting my daughter. How do you want me to control her? Are you going to step on her again?"

"No," Wei Xue Ze said helplessly, "I mean Brother Zhai's matter."

When it comes to Zhai Zhengrong, Mu Lianshen's expression softened a bit, and he said calmly: "This matter has already had the best outcome, you'd better not get involved. If Zhai Zhengguang had not been expelled from the Zhai family, I'm afraid the punishment would be even heavier. Although he was used, this is treason, and there is nothing good about being involved."

"Brother Zhai did this to shut up outsiders,"

Wei Xueze nodded: "I understand."

"Then I'll go get busy first,"
