As soon as Zhou Ziyi said this, the whole family stared at his phone.
My uncle was even more incredulous: "What, you... Impossible!"
“You’ll know after listening to it.” Zhou Ziyi said without hesitation, turned up the volume and pressed play.
Uncle Yan Xiuji's voice came from the mobile phone amplifier: "...Aren't you here just for the Yan family's money? A student who doesn't study hard abroad is only doing this kind of thing?"
The whole family turned to look at their uncle again, and Yan Xiuzhi narrowed his eyes and stared at him coldly.
My uncle loudly retorted, "No, I just said that he...I didn't mean that!"
Yan Xiuji raised his hand and said coldly: "Listen to the end first."
Perhaps it was because President Yan's expression was too scary, even the elders did not dare to speak, and the whole family listened quietly to the voice coming from the phone. Chu Ling also had a cold face. Even if she didn't necessarily like Zhou Ziyi, she certainly wouldn't like someone treating her son's marriage partner like this.
The only voices echoing in the entire living room were those of Uncle Yan Xiuji and Zhou Ziyi.
When Zhou Ziyi's stern question came from the phone, "Are you the kind of pervert who finds family ethics the most exciting? You only focus on young and beautiful men among your relatives..." Yan Xiuji finally said in a cold voice, "Enough."
Zhou Ziyi turned off the recording button.
It just so happened that he didn't really want Yan Xiuji to hear the words he had made up about him. That was purely to provoke Yan Xiuji's uncle, so it was better not to drag Yan Xiuji into it.
As soon as the recording stopped, my uncle could not wait to refute loudly: "He is slandering me! He said all these things, not me at all! You all heard it!"
"That's not what you meant. Then why are you asking me how much it costs per night?" Zhou Ziyi said in a cold tone, with a stern face, and he seemed to be holding back his anger. "I have been giving in again and again before, and now you have come to this point, am I going to let you slander me?"
My uncle's face turned red with anger, and he glared at him fiercely: "I just said a few jokes, and you slandered me like that? Also, you turned on the recording when you went to someone else's house. Are you here as a guest or a thief? You are actually a commercial spy, and you approached Yan Xiuji just to steal Hua Hao's secrets?!"
"Are you kidding? Would you say something like this? I'll just say it was a joke, why bother chasing me and scolding you?" Zhou Ziyi sneered, "And it was obviously you who started saying that first, and then I started recording. If I hadn't recorded it, would you have wrongly accused me in front of so many people?"
"You...!" The uncle pointed at Zhou Ziyi and looked at Yan Xiuji, "You just let him be so arrogant? How can you marry someone who would slander his elders? How can you sit with the Yan family?!"
"It's our one-on-one duel now, don't bring Yan Xiuji up with you." Zhou Ziyi said coldly, "If you had considered Yan Xiuji's face, you wouldn't have said such things in front of me. You are allowed to criticize me, but I am not allowed to refute you. Is that what you mean?"
After a pause, Zhou Ziyi sneered again: "Besides, you are also a man married to the Yan family and sit in the Yan family, why do you have to embarrass me?"
Yan Xiuji's aunt finally couldn't help but speak: "Xiao Xiu, I'm not saying that you should think more about this marriage."
Yan Xiuzhi glanced at her and said nothing.
My aunt thought Yan Xiuji was thinking the same thing, and continued, "He turned our house upside down the first time he came. Is he the kind of person who will be content in the future? You don't know, right? As soon as he came, he said we were here to eat and drink for free. The words he used... I really can't repeat them at all. With this kind of personality, how can you live in the future? Won't your father be mad at him to death?"
Zhou Ziyi took one look and thought: Wow, two against one!
He was just about to cheer up and debate with the scholars when Yan Xiuzhi suddenly reached out and stuffed the half-peeled tribute orange that Zhou Ziyi had been peeling back into his hand.
Zhou Ziyi: ???
He held the tribute orange for a second, exchanged glances with Yan Xiuzhi, and suddenly an idea came to him.
——Okay, the boss is going to take the stage himself.
"I didn't finish watching his attitude, but I saw your attitude clearly." Yan Xiuji said, "Why, do you think the people I brought back deserve to be bullied by you? You said he didn't give you face, so this is how you give me face?"
Zhou Ziyi evaluated the firepower and felt that Mr. Yan might not need help yet, so he pretended to suppress his anger and shut up, and continued to peel the tribute oranges with a grunt.
"He's a man!" Auntie said with her eyes wide open, "Have you ever thought about how others will look at you and the Yan family if you marry a man? Have you ever considered the share price of Huahao? Is this how you become the head of the Yan family?!"
Her husband chimed in, "Yeah! He's still a person who doesn't know manners or respect. How can he be your helper in the future? If you take him out to participate in any activities, won't it bring shame to the entire Huahao?"
At this moment, Zhou Ziyi finished peeling the tangerine peel and glanced at Yan Xiuzhi.
Zhou Ziyi: Boss, do you want to help me with the fight?
Yan Xiuji glanced at his uncle and said, "Have you considered these issues before marrying my aunt?"
Zhou Ziyi: Okay, no need.
He carefully tore the white silk from the tribute oranges, and his uncle frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"
"You said Zhou Ziyi is a man, and so are you. You said he doesn't respect people, and it seems that you don't respect him either." Yan Xiuji's tone was not loud, and his tone was calm, but it was intimidating and a little bit sarcastic. "Of course, you don't need to attend any activities of Huahao. After all, my aunt's position is not high. It's good enough to participate in a team building of a branch company. After all, you can bring your family members to the team building."
After he finished speaking, my uncle suddenly realized that he was mocking him for marrying into a woman's family and living off her. My uncle stood up and said, "How dare you talk to me like that...!"
Zhou Ziyi stuffed the peeled tribute orange into Yan Xiuzhi's hand, then stood up and stood in front of Yan Xiuzhi.
He stared at his uncle and said in a sinister tone, "Want to do it?"
To be honest, Zhou Ziyi's figure was not strong, but his aura was very scary. His fierce eyes frightened his uncle who was about to rush over.
My uncle subconsciously glanced at Chu Ling.
Zhou Ziyi stretched out his hand to block him: "Who are you looking at?!"
Yan Xiuji also said: "You want to fight with my mother?"
"Chu Ling, why are you just sitting there without saying anything?" The uncle didn't want to fight Chu Ling, he just wanted to attack her, "If Yan Wenwu was here, he wouldn't let his son say such things. Just indulge Yan Xiuji. If you take your kindness for granted, you will know that there is no medicine for regret in the future!"
"What do you want me to say? Are you welcome to come every day whenever you want?" Chu Ling glanced at him, stood up and walked upstairs, "I'm tired, you guys are welcome to do whatever you want."
Yan Xiuji also stood up: "We are leaving too. Mom, I will have someone pick you up on the day of the engagement party."
Chu Ling didn't even turn her head: "I know."
Yan Xiuji walked forward and touched Zhou Ziyi's arm. Zhou Ziyi thought he was going to hold her hand and go out, but when he stretched out his hand, the peeled tangerine returned.
——Okay, this thing keeps spinning around like this, I guess Mr. Yan doesn’t want to eat it anymore.
Zhou Ziyi moved the tribute oranges to the other side and took the initiative to hold Yan Xiuzhi's hand.
Yan Xiuzhi paused, but ultimately did not shake him off.
The two of them went out holding hands.
As for the two couples still staying in the Yan family's living room, there were still housekeepers watching them, so there was no need to worry about them taking anything away from the Yan family.
***
After leaving the door, Yan Xiuzhi went to the garage to get the car and did not let Zhou Ziyi follow him.
Zhou Ziyi was standing at the door, bored, so he simply started eating Gonggan. He tasted a slice, which was juicy, refreshing and sweet, and really delicious.
"Why are you here alone?"
A female voice suddenly sounded behind him. Zhou Ziyi turned around and saw that it was Yan Meiyue.
This little girl had been missing since dinner, and now she suddenly showed up and spoke to him in a nice tone - if she didn't speak in a sarcastic tone today, she could be considered quite friendly - Zhou Ziyi couldn't help but feel strange.
But the little girl spoke calmly, and Zhou Ziyi didn't start cursing right away, so he nodded and said, "Wait for Yan Xiuji to get the car."
Yan Meiyue took out her phone: "Can you add me as a friend?"
Zhou Ziyi: ???
——What kind of approach is this?
Seeing Zhou Ziyi's defensive face, Yan Meiyue said, "Actually, I still support my brother, but what he did is really disrespectful to my Third Uncle. My Third Uncle has taken me in for so many years, I can't go against him, right? If you really want my Third Uncle to agree, I can still see if there is a chance and say something good about you to him."
The more Zhou Ziyi listened, the more confused he became: Does this mean that Yan Meiyue is going to help Yan Wenwu with his hair dryer?
No, would Yan Wenwu listen to a girl who is not a direct descendant?
Yan Meiyue, why did you suddenly change your attitude?
"Don't just stand there, add me as a friend! This way, if you want to know what my uncle is feeling or thinking, I can send it to you at any time." Yan Meiyue said, "In a sense, I am equivalent to your sister-in-law. With my help, you can get twice the result with half the effort, right?"
Zhou Ziyi had a lot of questions in his mind, but he couldn't say them out loud, so he just took out his phone and added the friend first.
"Huh? Are you still drawing?" Yan Meiyue flipped through Zhou Ziyi's circle of friends. "The drawing is very beautiful, and it has a watermark. Is it a commercial work?"
Zhou Ziyi didn't explain much: "I just drew it for fun."
"Okay. By the way, I'm not spying on you for free." Yan Meiyue added, "But don't worry, it's just a little pocket money, I'm sure you can afford it."
Zhou Ziyi raised his eyebrows secretly.
Yan Meiyue seemed to want to say something, but Yan Xiuji had already driven to the door. Zhou Ziyi said goodbye to Yan Meiyue and got into Yan Xiuji's car. When he turned around, he saw Yan Meiyue waving at them.
Yan Xiuji didn't notice this, but he did see Zhou Ziyi and Yan Meiyue standing together. When the car drove out of the Yan family yard, Yan Xiuji asked, "Why did she ask you to do it?"
"I don't know her real purpose, but she told me she supports our marriage." Zhou Ziyi shook his phone, "She also added me as a friend."
Yan Xiuji narrowed his eyes.
Zhou Ziyi waited for two seconds and found that he didn't comment, so he had to put his phone away again. As soon as he put his hand down, he heard Yan Xiuji ask again: "What's on your phone?"
"This?" Zhou Ziyi shook the pendant on his phone. "It's a little rabbit."
After saying that, he pinched the pendant with two fingers and pressed it hard——
Jih!!!
