Chapter 1116: Along with the hair, the once proud heart also ages.
The news that the Zhou family had lost Emma Zhi's resources spread like wildfire because they were photographed at the release meeting.
No one could have imagined such a huge chain reaction.
When Liang Tai did not renew the contract, he also took away a number of cooperative enterprises. This wave of losses for the Zhou family was unexpected. Zhou Guotao had no time to care about the departure of Zhou Suihuai and the children. With a mind full of lawsuits, he had felt that the feeling of precariousness was far away from him over the years. He did not expect that he would still have such a disaster in his old age.
Several children of the Zhou family have returned, and they are all in a panic. Before, the company was managed by Zhou Sui Han and several uncles, and the other children of the Zhou family actually lived very freely. Suddenly, everyone was confused, and of course there was a sense of crisis in the family.
Amidst the chaos and turmoil, the whole family came to a conclusion: Why would a good person offend a venomous scorpion boss?
As a result, the Zhou family's economy declined for more than ten years, and Zhou Guotao was now quiet.
He no longer claims to be the richest man in the country, or that he is from a prominent family. He no longer puts on airs, and when he goes out to drink with others, he no longer puts on airs. It's like we've returned to the time before liberation.
The Zhou family has become completely honest.
Yuan Yining has been to the Emmazhi branch several times. He still wants to grab this resource, but Emmazhi is now under the management of Lin Ling. How can he give her a good face?
The first time I went there, I was thrown a bucket of cold water.
The second time I went, I got cursed out with some unpleasant words.
The third time he went, he didn't fight or curse. He just looked at Yuan Nianyi coldly and asked, "Who are you? Zhou Suihuai? We recognize Zhou Suihuai, but I don't recognize you. Are you Zhou Suihuai's mother? Okay, have Zhou Suihuai call me, and I'll politely invite you in right away."
Yuan Yining was choked by the last sentence. He stood there with red eyes. He took out his cell phone and called Zhou Suihuai, and then was severely humiliated in public.
"What? Can't get through?"
"Is Zhou Suihuai your son?"
"I heard that the Zhou family's stock market has plummeted recently. I thought the Zhou family was so powerful, but it seems that they are just so-so. It turns out that without the blessing of our Emma Zhi, they can also fall into the dust."
"You were so proud before. I heard you were even using your status as Zhou Suihuai's parents to embarrass our founder. Do you know how much money our founder, Emma Zhi, donates to charity every year? How dare you tease her?! You think you're so great just because you have a few bucks. You know, things change over time. As a human being, the most important thing to value is kindness!"
The person who said these words was a manager of Emma Zhi's distribution department. Looking at her delicate makeup, her words hit people's hearts. Yuan Yining couldn't say a word in reply and felt so ashamed that he wanted to die on the spot.
Your family members will consider your age and give you face, but outsiders will not.
Yuan Yining had already walked quite a distance, but he could still hear the mockery and disgust of the people behind him: "This is also a wealthy family, and their eyesight is not as good as mine. What is she relying on to get something for free? I really give her face! Come back next time, I will have more unpleasant words waiting for you!"
That day, Yuan Yining went home and sat alone in the living room for a long time.
Recalling many things.
In this living room, Bian Zhi had affectionately called her Aunt Yuan. She had also carefully prepared gifts for her children on their birthdays. They had even slept in the same bed and whispered to each other. What made their relationship so tense now?
Yuan Yining was sad and depressed. He missed Zhou Suihuai, his children, and the sweet Bian Zhi who had once smiled at him.
After that day, Yuan Yining fell ill and lost a lot of weight.
The Zhou family has been too busy recently, and only the nanny and family doctor are taking care of Yuan Yining. During this time of physical and mental suffering, Yuan Yining increasingly missed the kindness of Bian Zhi.
One day.
Her face was pale as she pushed open the door of the study in the night.
Inside the door, several Zhou family members, father and son, were discussing heatedly how to recover the recent losses of the Zhou family. Zhou Guotao angrily threw the teacup, and the water in the cup splashed out and wet Yuan Yining's feet.
Yuan Yining looked at the Zhou family father and son in the study, who were blushing and angry. They used to be a loving father and filial son, but now they were in constant conflict. The source of all this was that they deserved it.
The people in the study looked at Yuan Yining in astonishment.
Zhou Guotao frowned, "What are you doing here?"
Yuan Yining's eyes were red, and her voice was weak and slightly cold. "I miss my children, I miss Zhizhi, I want them to come back, I want everything to go back to the way it was before."
The tense atmosphere in the study faded after these words. For a moment, no one spoke. Only Yuan Yining was left at the door, repeating non-stop: "I want them to come back. When will they come back? I want them to come back. I miss my children." He said this unconsciously, like the mumbling of a man possessed by a demon. The Zhou family all walked over, feeling uncomfortable. Zhou Suihan persuaded them softly, "I will come back. Once the family affairs are resolved, I will go to North America again."
Yuan Yining's eyes were empty as he tightly grasped Zhou Suihan's hand. The veins on the back of his hand bulged out from the excessive force. "Go, go, don't wait, just go."
Zhou Sui Han also wants to go.
But, not now.
This is like a war without gunpowder. Whoever raises the white flag first loses.
Nothing else matters, but the Zhou family's reputation in the whole country cannot be completely ignored. Now the entire business circle is watching how the Zhou family will respond after Emma Zhi withdraws. If the Zhou family goes to find Bian Zhi at this time, then in the future, everyone will say that the Zhou family's prosperity depends on Bian Zhi, and the entire Zhou family will become a joke.
The Zhou family that Zhou Guotao has worked hard to build over the years will become empty talk, and everyone will only say in the future that the Zhou family is in its current state because of Nei Bianzhi.
What will others think of the descendants of Zhou when they go out into the world?
How to deal with Zhou Guotao's self-esteem?
The Zhou family's children decided to give it a try, as they couldn't bear to see their father suffer such humiliation in his old age.
The idea is good.
But many things in the world can be achieved without thinking or by working hard.
Zhou Sui Han didn't know whether Bian Zhi knew about the pressure on the Zhou family, or whether it was just an outburst after Du Xie had been holding back his anger for so long.
The Scorpion's industries are widespread, it is rich enough to rival a country, and it occupies the world's most scarce resources.
The Zhou family...
It’s indeed not enough to watch.
After several battles, the Zhou family suffered defeat after defeat, and finally had nowhere to retreat, and even their most proud cash flow had problems.
Seeing the defeat coming, the Zhou family was in danger, and the Zhou family members could only watch helplessly.
Everything happened so fast.
There was no time to react at all. The Zhou family had gone from being the richest in the country to being outside the top 100 due to economic decline. In a short period of time, Zhou laid off nearly half of its employees. In a short time, the Zhou family was left with nothing but old men struggling to survive.
Zhou Guotao's hair turned white overnight.
Along with the hair, the once proud and arrogant heart also ages.
