Chapter 251: Inner Demon
Maybe he heard the door open.
The woman inside poked her head out and exclaimed in surprise when she saw that it was Bian Zhi who came in.
“Yo—”
"It's Zhizhi who's back."
The woman was slightly plump and short, wearing a cheap, pilling coat. She had heavy makeup on her face, and her small eyes, with eyeliner, looked particularly sharp.
"Girls really change a lot when they grow up. I saw it on the news and wondered if she looked better in person, but I didn't expect she looked even more youthful in person than on TV."
Bian Zhi wanted to go in, but she noticed that the hand holding her arm tightened instantly, and his face was alert.
"Zhou Sui Huai?"
"What's wrong?"
she asked in a low voice.
Before Zhou Suihuai could answer, the woman in the living room came over and stood in front of Bian Zhi.
Smiling, she waved to the little fat boy behind her, "Little Star, come here and call me sister. Didn't you always say at home that you wanted to come and see Sister Bian Zhi? Now that you've seen her in person, why are you shy?"
"Haha—shy? You're grabbing whatever's expensive in the refrigerator, cherries, wax apples, strawberries with cream, etc. I've never seen someone so shy."
Aunt Li rolled her eyes and said this while standing in the corner of the living room.
The woman remained unfazed, her lips curled up in a smile, and she said confidently, "What's wrong with eating some fruit? The Lin family's huge fortune will belong to Zhizhi in the future. Let alone eating some fruit, even if her uncle and I wanted to move in directly, would Lin Jue dare to say a word of no?"
"Thinking back, right after Yaoyao left, Lin Jue married Wang Zhen. Bian Zhi was so upset, and it wasn't until I took her to the countryside to recuperate for a while that she finally calmed down. Could it be that the Lin family has forgotten everything?"
Not to mention the whole thing is fine,
I get furious when I mention Aunt Li.
Bianzhi was such a bright and cheerful girl, but no one knew what happened to her. She was gone for a few months. She was a healthy and lively girl, but when she came back she looked like a frosted eggplant and couldn't smile anymore.
It was such a hot summer day, and she wrapped herself in a quilt, but cold sweat broke out in waves. She was so anxious that she went back to her hometown and looked for many folk remedies.
Lin Jue was also anxious, but the Lin family's business was not stable enough at that time, so he could only find time to take Bian Zhi to see a psychologist.
As a result, the more he looked at her, the more withdrawn her personality became. By the time Lin Jue really had time to pay attention to her, Bian Zhi had already grown into the kind of person that no one wanted to get close to.
Perhaps it was because she was by his side during those years, so Bian Zhi felt a little closer to her than he did to others.
Recently, she discovered that Bian Zhi's heart seemed to be able to open up a little when it came to this Young Master Zhou.
Compared to Aunt Li's confrontational attitude, Bian Zhi was calm. She stood quietly, avoiding the hand extended by her aunt Li Juan. "This house belongs to my father. It has nothing to do with my mother. So, you can move in without asking."
This is the truth. Bian Yaoyao's only private property is the Chinese medicine hospital. This was the agreement between Bian Yaoyao and Lin Jue before they got married.
Bian Yaoyao devoted herself to medicine and felt that she would not be able to contribute to Lin Jue's business, so she took the initiative to draft this agreement.
Everyone knew about this when Bian Yaoyao left.
When Bian Zhi stated the facts, Li Juan did look a little embarrassed.
Perhaps she felt that Bian Zhi would rather help outsiders than her own people. Her face froze slightly, then she put on a deliberate smile and snorted, "Zhi Zhi, you are so naive. What's yours and mine, what's agreed upon, or what's discussed? The common property created by the couple means everyone has a share. Your mother is so naive that she was deceived by your father.
Auntie tells you, we are a family. Before Lin Jue had no children with other women, all those things were yours in the future. But now it’s different. This family has that woman, Lin Ye, and Chen Tingsi. Just imagine you are alone in this family, isolated and helpless, what can you do! "
Li Juan slapped her thigh, seeming to be very troubled.
"Zhizhi, you must be careful, you--"
Halfway through her words, Bian Zhi frowned, showing no patience. Sensing Zhou Suihuai's emotional fluctuations, she cut to the chase and asked directly, "What are you doing here? Just tell me, I have something else to do."
Li Juan didn't understand Bian Zhi's sudden toughness, and she was stunned.
Then he mumbled, "It's nothing. Xiao Xingxing has graduated from this school. I heard that your Chinese medicine hospital accepts all kinds of people, including those who are sick and have committed crimes. How can these people compare to your cousin who is very capable."
"You're promoting the best regardless of nepotism. Your cousin is studying management at a technical secondary school, so why not let him be the vice president of your Chinese medicine hospital? I'm telling you, your cousin is very smart and learns quickly. Even though he seems quiet right now, he's very knowledgeable when chatting with his friends in the game."
The more Zhou Suihuai listened, the more his brows furrowed.
He pulled Bian Zhi behind him.
His brows were furrowed. "Technical secondary school? Vice-president?"
"Are you kidding me?"
Aunt Li was so angry that she was speechless. "You really send everyone to our Chinese medicine hospital. You go to technical secondary school to study management, but from what I know, your child is studying tourism management, which is a far cry from corporate management!"
Li Juan was very unhappy when she heard this.
"What's wrong with tourism management? Tourism management is still management," Li Juan said, looking directly at Bian Zhi. "Zhi Zhi, when your mother was still alive, she told your uncle that when Bian Tao went to study Traditional Chinese Medicine and got a job, there would be a suitable place for him to go. Your mother is not around now, so naturally I came to you to fulfill my promise."
Bian Yaoyao did say this.
However, no one expected that Li Juan would give birth to a child with unclear mind and slow reaction. Not to mention anything else, I heard that the child has not yet learned to count clearly.
"I understand." Bian Zhi was silent for a moment. After all, it was her mother's promise, and she couldn't go against it. "But I can't be the vice president. I have to start from the grassroots."
Li Juan naturally frowned in dissatisfaction.
Just as she was about to speak, she heard Bian Zhi say directly, "This is the only choice before you. If you don't want to, then forget it. If you have any objections, go talk to my mother."
Li Juan: “…”
"How can I put this, Bian Zhi, do you have wings..."
Bian Zhi gave Li Juan a sharp look, and she immediately shut up. She lowered her voice and muttered, "You've really grown up, your spine has become stiff. I didn't say anything, but you got angry. You weren't like this when you were little. You could be bribed with a strawberry lollipop."
Seeing Bian Zhi's expression gradually becoming gloomy, Li Juan was unwilling to give in. "Okay, then start from the grassroots level. You will eventually become the vice president."
When Li Juan took Bian Tao away, she also took a large pile of bird's nest and ginseng, and then left in a swagger.
Bian Zhi didn't care much about these things, but he felt that Zhou Suihuai looked solemn and his breathing was much heavier.
"What's wrong?" Bian Zhi asked.
