Countless thoughts flashed through Mrs. Zhou's mind. Suddenly, she slapped Zhou Yiheng in the face and shouted angrily, "What on earth did you do? Why don't you explain it clearly?!"
At this time, Zhou Yiheng had long lost his previous arrogance, and his eyes were full of fear of Mrs. Zhou.
For Zhou Yiheng, every time he saw Mrs. Zhou, his memories were very unpleasant.
The condescending look, as if looking at a piece of trash, was the most profound memory this woman left on him.
And his father, whom he always thought loved him very much, would only be humble and submissive in front of this woman.
With just one word from her, his father would not stay with him no matter how much he begged or cried.
From the first time he left with this woman, Zhou Yiheng knew that in his father's heart, he and his mother were just dispensable pets around him.
When he is happy, he will accompany them and coax them.
Unhappy, he just walked away.
It doesn't matter how miserable and desperate they are.
Zhou Yiheng hated this woman, but he was even more afraid of her. Seeing her angry, he trembled with fear and could hardly speak clearly: "I... I just said a few words to Sheng Ming, who knew he... He would react so strongly and suddenly pounce on me and attack..."
Mrs. Zhou's face was icy: "What did you say? Tell me clearly!"
Zhou Yiheng's face turned even paler, his lips trembled, but he couldn't utter a word.
Mrs. Zhou looked at his guilty look and knew there was nothing she didn't understand.
While feeling angry in her heart that this careless mother and son only caused her trouble, she looked at Xie Xihe again. When she was about to speak, a burst of hurried footsteps sounded and Zhou Jianshu's figure appeared in her sight.
Zhou Yiheng was filled with panic. Now he finally saw his familiar father. All his grievances and fears suddenly surged up in his mind. Without thinking, he rushed towards Zhou Jianshu, hugged his thighs and burst into tears.
Zhou Jianshu was startled by him. When he saw the bruises on his face and hands, his eyes darkened. He glanced at Tang Xiuzhi and shouted angrily, "I asked you to look after a child, and this is how you do it? If you can't even take care of a child properly, what else can you do?!"
Tang Xiuzhi felt emboldened the moment she saw him. She no longer cared about Mrs. Zhou and rushed towards Zhou Jianshu, shouting that she was wronged. Pointing at Sheng Ming, she said, "It was him! He's the one who beat our Xiaoheng like this! Jianshu, you must stand up for our son!"
Zhou Jianshu's face was gloomy, his gaze stayed on Sheng Ming for a few seconds, and finally moved to Xie Xihe beside him.
He took a deep breath to suppress his anger, and said in a calm voice, "Ms. Xie, before coming here, I already checked the hotel's surveillance camera and understood the whole story. It was simply a quarrel between two children while they were playing, and then your child suddenly attacked and pinned my son to the ground and beat him up. This matter..."
He paused, his aura suddenly becoming stronger, and he said firmly, "It's not my son's fault!"
Does that mean she will live a long life in her home?
Xie Xihe looked at the family of three across from him and suddenly smiled. "I thought Mr. Zhou would be able to run Tianheng successfully. He should have some skills and strength. He should be able to distinguish right from wrong."
"Now it seems that I thought too much."
Xie Xihe said, nodding casually: "Since you are right, then I am unreasonable. Okay, then we will handle this matter in an unreasonable way."
As soon as he finished speaking, he took out his cell phone.
Zhou Jianshu's heart skipped a beat. He looked at her warily and asked, "Miss Xie, what do you mean by this?"
Mrs. Zhou had already asked the same question once, and Xie Xihe had answered it once, so she had no interest in answering it again.
She pressed the call button directly.
The phone rang once before it was connected. Xie Xihe didn't offer any explanation and simply said, "I'll give you ten minutes. I want to see Tianheng Entertainment's stock hit its lower limit."
There was silence for three seconds, and the answer was just as simple and direct: "Got it."
The scene was dead silent.
Not to mention others, even Mrs. Zhou's breathing stopped and a feeling of uneasiness surged in her heart.
But things had come to this point, in front of so many people, even she couldn't hurt Zhou Jianshu's face, so she could only wink at him, indicating: This Xie Xihe is not easy to mess with, you better be careful.
Zhou Jianshu noticed his wife's gaze, but rarely ignored it.
Zhou Jianshu is a son-in-law who married into the family. He established Tianheng Entertainment with the help of his father-in-law's connections and funds, and spent nearly twenty years to develop the company to its current scale.
From being able to rely on the Ning family in the beginning to being able to stand on equal footing with the Ning family now, he still respects this nominal wife, but he no longer has the fear and caution he had before.
If it were another occasion, he would be happy to give her face, but now, in front of so many people in the entertainment industry, if he just bowed his head like this, how could he survive in the entertainment industry in the future and how could he hold on to his position as the president of Tianheng?
Therefore, Zhou Jianshu not only did not bow his head, but his aura became even sharper. He shot his eyes at Xie Xihe like arrows and sneered, "You want to make Tianheng's stock hit the limit down in ten minutes? Miss Xie is really arrogant."
"I've heard for a long time that the Xie family is now at its peak. Even the four major families in Kyoto have to temporarily avoid the limelight for the sake of the panacea. I want to see if the Xie family's panacea is really as omnipotent as the legend says, and can even cause a listed company with a market value of tens of billions to hit the limit down!"
He shook his wrist, staring at the watch on his hand and said, "It's 6:07 pm now. Ten minutes left. I'm waiting to see what Miss Xie can do!"
He withdrew his gaze as soon as he finished speaking. Not only did he not inform his subordinates of how to deal with the situation, he didn't even notify them.
It was obvious that he didn't take Xie Xihe's words to heart.
Mrs. Zhou was almost vomiting blood because of him. When she was trying to save the situation, she saw Zhou Jianshu pulling Tang Xiuzhi and Zhou Yiheng aside, one by one, to check their wounds. When she looked up, she met Tang Xiuzhi's provocative and complacent gaze.
Anger flashed in Mrs. Zhou's eyes, and she suddenly sneered and pulled her daughter aside.
Oh.
I thought that after so many years of experience, Zhou Jianshu would have made some progress, but I didn't expect him to be such a hopeless person.
Well, since they are seeking death, why should she do anything unnecessary?
Ten minutes passed in a flash as everyone waited curiously and anxiously.
Zhou Jianshu had just finished examining Zhou Yiheng's injuries. His expression became even uglier than before, and he said in a cold voice, "Ten minutes are up, Miss Xie, you..."
Lost.
Before Zhou Jianshu finished speaking, his cell phone rang quickly. He subconsciously picked up the phone and took a look. When he saw the caller ID, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.
