I glanced at him and smiled playfully, "It was just a minor incident. I've recovered now, don't worry, Grandpa."
"That's all right. Come, I'll introduce you to some elders."
The old man used to be the person in charge of the group and held a very important position in the business world. He only knew some old seniors.
For me, it is a rare connection.
It may also be useful in case of divorce later.
After a brief greeting, the old man said he was tired and wanted to rest in the morning, leaving us young people free to move around.
As soon as he left, Zhou Zhizi came over.
"Ah Yan, I just heard that the company is going to have a team building in a few days. How about we go together?"
She held Zhou Chenyan's arm and no longer took me seriously.
They were so intimate as if she was the man's wife.
Zhou Chenyan pushed her hand away and said, "Be careful of the impact."
"What's there to be concerned about? Everyone knows that we have a good relationship and have been close since we were young."
Zhou Zhizi stood up and acted coquettishly.
Zhou Chenyan was unmoved. "Didn't you say before that you wanted to visit Granny Fang? Granny Fang is waiting for you over there. Go quickly."
He pulled me and turned away.
I had just taken two steps when I shook off his hand.
He walked forward expressionlessly.
Leave him behind.
He caught up with her, "Are you jealous?"
I gave him a strange look and asked, "Are you thinking too much?"
He smiled and said, "Okay, if you're not jealous, then you're not jealous."
He was strangely talkative today.
I frowned slightly, "Is this how you plan to handle Zhou Zhizi's matter?"
He didn't answer immediately, but pulled me to a secluded place before speaking.
"Mu Yan, I'll only say this once. Zhou Zhizi did make a mistake. I understand that you hate him and want to punish him, but this matter can only be handled this way, at least at this time."
I vaguely understood what he meant.
"You don't think my parents will suppress this matter for the sake of the Zhou family's reputation?"
Zhou Chenyan said in a deep voice, "Since you already know everything, why bother asking me?"
"Because I don't believe it."
Zhou Zhizi is harming others. If she can harm me today, she might harm anyone related to Zhou Jia tomorrow. Do I have to let my parents-in-law cover up for her?
Zhou Chenyan rubbed his forehead with a complicated look in his eyes.
"You don't understand. Some things cannot be achieved according to our wishes. We must give up what we should give up."
"I won't give up."
I will never give up on the justice I deserve.
Zhou Zhizi must pay the price.
Zhou Chenyan suddenly grabbed my hand, turned around and left. I didn’t know where he was going, but he was very strong.
I passively followed him forward.
Go all the way to the door of the study on the second floor.
He released his grip, "Here's the answer."
The study door was not closed.
To be precise, it was not closed tightly, leaving a very small gap.
The sound from inside came through the gap.
"It's unfair to the child what you did."
This is the old man's voice.
Father Zhou sighed, "I have no choice. Your birthday is approaching, and the company is about to cooperate with the government to develop a piece of land. We can't let any rumors that are detrimental to the Zhou family spread at this time."
"Does the child agree?"
Zhou's father said, "I will make it up to her."
"Are you still planning to act first and ask for your permission later?" The old man strongly disapproved. "Mu Yan may seem gentle, but she's actually stubborn. If she knew about these things, she might not understand. She might even resent you and the Zhou family."
"Just complain, I have no choice but to do this for Zhou Jia."
The old man stopped talking.
Silence hung in the air.
The back garden is picturesque.
Zhou Chenyan and I walked to the fountain one after the other.
He said, "Now you understand, this is the only way to handle this matter. Father will not agree to let Zhizi go to jail."
"This result is what you want."
I looked at the shimmering water and suddenly felt a little doubtful.
Doubt everything in front of you and doubt the people around you.
What is true and what is false.
"It doesn't matter what I think, what matters is what my father plans to do."
I smiled, only feeling the irony.
"You are now the CEO of Zhou Group. All the projects of Zhou Group should be in your hands. You have the right to decide how to deal with them."
So it wasn't just Zhou's father who thought this way.
He thought so too.
He was just going with the flow and trying to shirk responsibility.
hypocritical!
I gave him a cold look and said, "Zhou Chenyan, you Zhou family members are all birds of a feather. No wonder you raised someone like Zhou Zhizi."
People from the same family tend to live in the same house.
This sentence makes a lot of sense.
Zhou Chenyan frowned, "I know you have resentment in your heart, it's normal to be unhappy."
"You know nothing, and you can't empathize with me." I sneered, "If it was Zhou Zhizi who encountered this kind of thing, and I was the one who had her kidnapped, would you let it go peacefully just to save the Zhou family's reputation?"
"You won't."
He seemed certain I wouldn't do it.
I thought it was ridiculous. "Don't tell me you trust me. If that's the case, you might be disappointed."
I moved closer to him, closing the distance between us.
He looked down at me.
Their auras are intertwined and inseparable.
"Zhou Chenyan, you've never understood me. Don't pretend to understand me. You don't deserve it."
