Zhou Cheng was asked to leave the study by Mr. Zhou.
If his grandfather hadn't stopped him just now, he really wanted to beat that beast Zhou Qifan to death.
Haha, just out of jealousy, he planned to kill his own elder brother, and used such a vicious formation to make his elder brother unable to be reborn forever.
The cruelty of this beast Zhou Qifan had exceeded his expectations.
This time he took the risk of luring the snake out of its hole and got himself injured, but it was not in vain.
it's all over.
Finally, he avenged his biological father, himself and Xu Qiu.
But for some reason, he felt a sense of emptiness in his heart.
During the more than half year he spent at the Zhou family, his life was full of intrigues and deceptions, and he would fall into the abyss if he was not careful.
Can he still be Lin Cheng now?
My mind flashed to my grandmother, who was dying on the hospital bed, and my grandfather, who was very old...
He stood in the corridor of Zhou's house, a cigarette in his mouth. He took out a lighter with his uninjured hand and lit the cigarette, his movements revealing his irritability.
He exhaled a puff of smoke, and soon the air was filled with the smell of nicotine.
At this moment, his cell phone vibrated, making him even more upset.
I was planning to turn off the phone, but then I saw the caller ID showed it was my mother.
So he took a deep breath, threw the cigarette to the ground and crushed it with his shoe.
After doing all this, he answered the phone.
I heard my mother's somewhat reproachful voice coming from the phone.
"Acheng, what took you so long to answer the phone?"
Zhou Cheng's voice was a little hoarse.
"Mom, I was in a meeting just now. What do you want to talk to me about?"
Chen Zhizhi was silent for a while, her tone revealing heartache.
"Acheng, your sister is so angry with her mother-in-law that she's in danger of premature labor. You have to support her."
Zhou Cheng's expression suddenly changed, and a fierce look flashed in his eyes.
"What?"
"Xuqiu, how are you now?"
Chen Zhizhi was startled by Zhou Cheng's sudden increase in voice. After calming down, she continued.
"Xuqiu is currently receiving treatment to preserve her pregnancy. Seeing her in such agony is more painful than tearing my heart out."
"But this is also my fault. I lost my temper and had to argue with others. But who can't swallow this anger in that situation? That woman has bullied Xu Qiu..."
A surge of anger surged in Zhou Cheng's heart, and there was a chilling coldness in his eyes.
"Mom, send me the address and I'll be there right away."

On the rooftop of the hospital.
Lin Zhidong looked serious, stood with his hands behind his back, faced Wen Yanci, and spoke slowly.
"Yan Ci, I feel it is necessary to explain this matter to you objectively."
"I thought you were on a business trip today and Xuqiu had no one to accompany her, so Xuqiu's mother and I came to visit her. But outside the living room, I heard your mother giving Xuqiu advice on giving birth."
"But her words were accusatory, saying Xuqiu's decision to have a cesarean section was willful. She even said that if a natural birth failed, she could switch to a cesarean section. In response to Xuqiu's objections, she bluntly called her lacking manners."
"We are Xuqiu's parents. Seeing our daughter being unreasonably accused like this is too much to bear. So we had an argument with your mother."
"At first I just hoped your mother could respect and understand Xuqiu."
"But Xuqiu's mother said some extreme words during the argument, accusing your mother of being cold-blooded and selfish, and even bringing up her past of framing Xuqiu..."
“So that escalated the quarrel.”
"But it also made us see clearly your mother's attitude towards Xu Qiu. She looked down on our family's status and felt that Xu Qiu, who was marrying above your level, should keep a low profile and not expect respect or understanding..."
"The root cause of this incident is that the three of us elders didn't do our job properly. We were only concerned with arguing, causing Xu Qiu to suffer."
Every word Lin Zhidong said seemed to hit Wen Yanci's heart, especially the last few sentences.
Wen Yanci knew that Lin Zhidong was holding back on what he said. Given his mother's strong character, what she said at the time might have been even more unbearable to hear.
Now his heart felt like it was being pulled by something, making him feel uncomfortable and bitter.
A feeling of frustration suddenly welled up in my heart.
He cannot escape the blame for the current situation.
It was he who promised not to let Xu Qiu get hurt again, but it was also he who repeatedly gave his mother the opportunity to hurt Xu Qiu.
He shouldn't have left Xuqiu to attend the summit, even for a day.
He shouldn't give his mother the chance to get close to Xuqiu.
The idea of resolving the past grudges was just wishful thinking on his part.
Seeing his son-in-law's painful expression, Lin Zhidong remained silent.
He hesitated for a moment and decided to tell him the purpose of his visit today.
"Yan Ci, these days, we have truly felt your love for Xu Qiu, and we hope Xu Qiu can continue to be happy like this."
"But today, your mother's words shattered the fantasy of Xuqiu's mother and me."
"The disparity in our status is an indisputable fact. We can't change it, and your mother is very concerned about our status."
"Even though Xuqiu is pregnant with the Wen family's blood, as an elder, she still has no sympathy for Xuqiu and can even say such degrading words. This makes us deeply uneasy about Xuqiu's situation."
"I understand that it's difficult for you to be caught in the middle, but I still hope that you can carefully resolve your mother's issue, because this isn't the first time your mother has expressed her dislike for Xu Qiu."
"If you don't deal with it, today's situation will only keep happening."
"Although our Lin family cannot compare to your Wen family, we can definitely provide Xuqiu and her two children with a comfortable life."
These threatening words made Wen Yanci's eyes darken and his tone became a little colder.
"Uncle, I admit that I didn't handle this matter properly and caused Xu Qiu to get hurt again."
"Don't worry, I will definitely take care of my mother's problem and won't give her the chance to get close to Xu Qiu again."
"Regarding what you just said, I just want to tell you that no one can take Xu Qiu away from me."
Lin Zhidong didn't really want to take Xuqiu and the two babies away. He hoped more than anyone else that Xuqiu could live a good life with her son-in-law and that the family could be happy.
Although his son-in-law spoke in a tough tone, he would accept it as long as he was truly good to his daughter.
"Okay, I'm sure you can handle this."
