Mrs. Zhou was furious. She kicked the man to the ground and said with a sullen face, "Didn't you hear what Xie Xihe said? Do you think I dare to protect you?"
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She couldn't help but give him a hard kick and shouted, "Zhou Jianshu, I've warned you several times that the waters of Kyoto are very deep. Anyone who shows up could kill you without a burial place. I told you to be careful, but what happened?"
"You completely ignored my words!"
"When you're fine, go find your son and lover and enjoy the joy of family. Now that you're in trouble, you think of me and want me to save you. Are you dreaming?!"
"Get out! Get out of here! Get as far away as you can!"
She took a deep breath and gradually calmed down her anger, but her expression became even colder. She looked down at Zhou Jianshu and said, "I will authorize my lawyer to handle the divorce. Zhou Jianshu, if you know what's good for you, please cooperate with me to complete the formalities. We can part ways amicably. If you don't know what's good for you..."
Mrs. Zhou glanced at Tang Xiuzhi and her son and sneered, "You can try."
Without even bothering to look at her, he grabbed his daughter's arm and left.
Zhou Jianshu's cry for help sounded behind him. Mrs. Zhou didn't even pause, but Miss Zhou turned around to look at him, with a thoughtful look in her eyes.
As soon as he got out of the hotel, he stopped and whispered, "Mom."
Although she was still furious, Mrs. Zhou managed to suppress her anger when she heard her daughter's voice. She said in a gentle tone, "Did you get scared?"
Miss Zhou shook her head, her brows calm, and said, "No, but I think I can reconsider the matter of divorcing Zhou Jianshu."
Mrs. Zhou frowned and asked, "You don't agree?"
Looking at her daughter's young face, Mrs. Zhou paused and couldn't help but press her brows: "I'm sorry, I was so angry just now that I forgot to consider your feelings. It's right for you to disagree, after all..."
"Mom, you misunderstood." Miss Zhou interrupted her, her expression unchanged, and said, "Just like you, I gave him chances, 100 times."
"From the moment he broke his promise to me for the 100th time, I stopped treating him as a dad."
Mrs. Zhou frowned: "Then you..."
Miss Zhou: "I just think there might be a better way to resolve this than divorce."
"for example?"
"For example, take away half of his Tianheng shares."
"For example, bring his illegitimate son to the Ning family and train him well."
He emphasized the last four words, and Mrs. Zhou's heart skipped a beat. The way she looked at her daughter was completely different.
Compared to Zhou Jianshu who made his fortune with the help of his wife's family, the Ning family to which Mrs. Zhou belongs is the real wealthy family in Kyoto. At its peak, it even surpassed the Su family, which was the last of the four major families.
Unfortunately, when the situation was at its best, Mrs. Zhou's father, the old patriarch Ning, who was the head of the Ning family at the time, passed away.
The old master of the Ning family had only one daughter, Mrs. Zhou. After marrying Zhou Jianshu, she only gave birth to one daughter, Miss Zhou. As soon as the old master of the Ning family left, the Ning family was in turmoil.
Members of the various side branches of the family came out one after another, all wanting to get a piece of the pie. They used the excuse that the main Ning family had no male heirs, and under the pretext of managing and keeping the property for them, they swallowed up nearly half of the main family's property.
The Ning family's assets were torn apart, and the once prosperous family fell into decline in an instant.
It was also from then on that Zhou Jianshu, who had always obeyed Mrs. Zhou's orders, gradually revealed his true colors and cared less and less about her day by day.
Over the years, Mrs. Zhou has been busy juggling her small family and the larger family, and has paid less attention to her daughter.
Looking at her daughter with a calm expression at this time, Mrs. Zhou suddenly realized that her daughter, who she thought was still a little girl, seemed to have grown up without her noticing, and had grown up better than she had imagined.
Miss Zhou smiled faintly at her mother and said, "During those years in Country M, I met a few friends who studied finance and learned some stock knowledge from them. After returning to China, I gradually acquired some scattered shares of Tianheng. It's not much, but if you add it to half of Zhou Jianshu's shares, it should be enough."
"Mom, you've paid so much for him and this family. It's time to ask for some interest."
Mrs. Zhou's heart was moved, but she was still a little hesitant: "But thank Xihe..."
"She won't care," Miss Zhou said with certainty. "She's not on the same level as us. If Tang Xiuzhi and her son hadn't recklessly provoked her, she wouldn't have had anything to do with us."
"Whether we let Zhou Jianshu and the others fend for themselves or keep them and their money in our hands, it makes no difference to her. As long as Zhou Jianshu and the other two are punished, it won't be against her will."
Let Zhou Jianshu see hope, and then ruthlessly extinguish all hope, separating Tang Xiuzhi and Zhou Yiheng from their mother and son, and making them controlled by others. Isn't this result more satisfying than simply stepping on the other person to death?
A dark light flashed across Miss Zhou's eyes, and she asked again, "Will she even be more satisfied with this result?"
Mrs. Zhou's eyes changed and she didn't speak for a long time.
Miss Zhou was not in a hurry and gave her enough time to think.
Finally, Mrs. Zhou gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, let's do it according to your idea."
Miss Zhou smiled brightly.

Let’s go back a few minutes.
Xie Xihe left the banquet hall with his life and walked all the way to the outside of the hotel. He finally looked at Zhu Ming, who had been secretly watching him for who knows how many times, and said, "Just say whatever you want to say."
Zhu Ming had been holding it in for a long time, and upon hearing this, he immediately said, "Madam, are you planning to just let Zhou Jianshu and his family go?"
Thinking of Zhou Jianshu's words, anger flashed in his eyes: "They slandered the Third Master and his wife, bullied the young master, and even tried to threaten you. I think they should be thrown into the dungeon of the training camp and taught a lesson. At the very least, someone should investigate Zhou Jianshu and bring him to ruin!"
"Just a beating would be too easy for them!"
Xie Xihe glanced at him and suddenly changed the subject, "Before, Bai Zang asked me to develop some medicine that can enhance the physique to assist the campers in their training."
Zhu Ming's eyes lit up: "Have you developed a medicine?"
Xie Xihe hummed, his voice light, "It's done, but your Third Master and I tried it, and the pain after taking the medicine was a bit strong. Ordinary campers may not be able to bear it, so it needs to be improved."
Glancing at him, he ordered, "Send someone to follow Zhou Jianshu and record his symptoms over the past few days in detail and submit them to me. I'll take a look at the situation and consider how to improve it."
Zhu Ming's eyes suddenly widened, and the anger in his heart turned into deep sympathy in an instant.
Tsk.
He knew how strong his Third Master and his wife's constitutions were. Even they felt the pain was a bit strong after taking the medicine. What about ordinary people...
Zhu Ming shuddered and didn't dare to think further.
Xie Xihe's voice continued to sound slowly, saying: "It is not our turn to bring disgrace to Zhou Jianshu. Others will take care of it."
Zhu Ming was completely speechless.
