Chapter 390 The Return of Chu Yan
All of this originally belonged to them! Having lived in the Zhou family for so long, they had never been introduced to such important figures by the old man! Is blood ties really more important than companionship?
This afternoon, the two of them were still in Beijing when they received a call from their grandmother around 7 p.m., saying that the Zhou family was holding a welcome party for their lost son's family who had returned! When Zhou Wansheng announced their return, those people did not change their surnames, so their grandmother felt that the two of them still had a chance. She urged them to fly back as soon as possible and bring them to the party, hoping to outdo those from the countryside and make Zhou Wansheng regret sending them away, so that he would recognize them back into the Zhou family.
The two of them hadn't had an easy time in Beijing, so after hearing their grandmother's words, they didn't hesitate at all and bought the next available flight to Hong Kong.
They arrived at the villa in the latter half of the party, changed into formal attire in the car, and after the makeup artist arranged by the Zhao family finished their makeup, the two followed their grandmother into the villa where the Zhou family was holding the party.
Watching Gu Yin, under the guidance of the old man, chatting with bigwigs from all walks of life with ease, Zhao Feifei's eyes were burning with jealousy!
"Grandma, are you sure the Zhou family didn't treat that family sincerely?" Zhao Feifei stared at Gu Yin and asked the old woman.
Old Mrs. Zhao also saw Gu Yin and the others, and said with certainty, "In our port city, those who don't acknowledge their ancestors are either not recognized by their main family or are unqualified and incapable. Either way, it's good for you! Tengfei worked at Zhou's Company for a while and was raised in an elite mode from a young age. He's much better than those who went to the countryside! I don't believe that with such outstanding examples before him, the old man can't be blind, unless he doesn't want Zhou's Shipping to continue!"
That enormous fortune originally belonged to her grandson, but now they've created this fake heir! Their dreams of sharing connections, resources, and wealth with the Zhou family are gone forever! How can they swallow this insult?!
That's worth hundreds of billions! It's just that her daughter lacks ambition! She didn't learn her cunning ways of winning people over, otherwise, when Zhou Ming was so hopeless, the Zhou family would have been easily taken over!
Zhou Wansheng had no idea that the Zhao family had such intentions. At this moment, he was watching Gu Yin answer the phone. It was Chu Yan calling. The other party did not have an invitation and was currently being stopped outside the door.
After hanging up the phone, Gu Yin apologized to everyone, then said something to Zhou Wansheng before heading towards the door.
Seeing Gu Yin leave, Old Madam Zhao seized the opportunity and tugged at Zhao Tengfei and Zhao Feifei: "Come on, hurry up and go over there. Remember, your goal is to return to the Zhou family. Don't worry about whether you're a real heiress or a real young master, and don't worry about money or treatment. Even if you return to the Zhou family as a servant, that's the beginning of success! And don't mention your biological grandparents! That's taboo, not a single word can be said! Don't even think about it! Everything will wait until we get back to the Zhou family. Then we'll have plenty of time and opportunities!"
The two nodded solemnly, took a deep breath, and immediately followed.
On the other side, Gu Yin went out the door and saw Chu Yan carrying a bag, leaning against the lion statue by the door with his eyes closed, looking very tired.
Gu Yin ran up to him worriedly.
"Chu Yan! How are you? Are you injured anywhere?"
Chu Yan opened his eyes, and the tired look in his eyes disappeared completely when he saw Gu Yin dressed in formal attire.
Chu Yan straightened up, smiled and shook her head: "I'm fine, I just had a little accident on the way and didn't have time to find a place to change into my dress. You look beautiful today!"
Seeing his disheveled appearance, Gu Yin thought this wasn't the place to talk, so she suppressed her bitter feelings and looked at the doorman: "If we don't go through the lobby, is there anywhere to get to the second floor?"
Gu Yin was a member of the Zhou family, which the doorman knew. Upon hearing this, he pointed out the way: "Go to the left, and you will see a spiral stone staircase leading up to it. However, the large iron gate at the top is locked and requires a password to open."
After Gu Yin understood, she called Butler Zhou, asked for the password, and then led Chu Yan upstairs.
After closing the door, Gu Yin poured him a glass of water and asked with a frown, "What exactly happened? You look like you're running for your life."
Chu Yan, panting after drinking his fill, said, "Almost. It's a long story. I'll go take a shower and change my clothes first, and we'll talk about it later."
Gu Yin nodded.
Chu Yan picked up his bag, which contained the formal attire he would be wearing to the party. He was in a rush and didn't think he would have time to prepare before coming here, so he prepared it abroad a few days in advance. However, he never expected that something unexpected would still happen.
After Gu Yin saw him go into the washroom, she made a phone call to Zhou Wansheng and Chu Xiong to let them know. Then she had someone bring up some food. As soon as she hung up the phone, Chu Yan finished washing up and came out.
Chu Yan quickly styled her hair. There was a knock on the door, and Gu Yin went to open it and brought in the food.
"Are you hungry? Eat something first, then we'll go downstairs!"
Chu Yan was indeed hungry. He sat down on the sofa and told them about the unexpected incident while eating his steak.
