Old Master Zhou, Zhou Rong, was a formidable figure in the business world in his youth. He built his empire from scratch, making Zhou's Yizhao a leader in the business community and allowing the entire Zhou family to hold their heads high and establish a firm foothold in high society.
Therefore, many people still admire and respect this capable and courageous Mr. Zhou.
Most of the guests attending the birthday dinner were people from the industry, especially those in business.
Zhou Xinlan wore a bright red floor-length backless dress tonight, which accentuated her graceful waistline. She looked tall, elegant, and exuded femininity.
Holding a glass of champagne and wearing high heels, she gracefully moved through the crowd.
With a calm and generous smile on her face, she greeted the guests coming and going.
As the eldest grandson of the Zhou family, Zhou Qiteng was naturally present.
He changed out of his usual sportswear today and wore a suit. His hair was also neatly combed, and he looked much more composed.
Zhou Xinlan took a sip of the wine in her glass, her gaze lingering on the doorway.
Seeing that Zhou Xinlan was acting strangely today, Zhou Qiteng put his hands in his pockets, strolled up to her, and said, "Sis, what are you looking at? Are you waiting for your Mr. Right?"
Zhou Xinlan glared at him and downed the wine in her glass in one gulp.
Do you think... I have a perfect husband?
Her eyes narrowed slightly, and her tone revealed a hint of danger.
Zhou Qiteng took a step back, glanced at the doorway, and sneered, "Then what have you been looking at? You look like you're waiting for someone."
Zhou Xinlan could tell that there was a hidden meaning in his words.
Her younger brother grew up abroad. Although he appeared unruly and idle all day, he had his own ideas and was very intelligent with keen insight.
His return this time was not just to celebrate his grandfather's birthday; more importantly, it was to fight for the Zhou family's inheritance rights.
In other words, although she and her brother appear to be loving siblings on the surface, they are actually likely to be enemies scheming against each other for the sake of the group's shares.
Zhou Xinlan smiled elegantly and casually placed the cup in her hand on the waiter's tray.
"I'm just bored and browsing around. You haven't been back to see Grandpa in a long time. Take this opportunity to spend some time with him, so he won't not recognize you later."
That's a very direct statement.
Zhou Qiteng naturally understood that Zhou Xinlan was deliberately mocking him, telling him to make a good impression on his grandfather so that the Zhou family wouldn't be unaware of his existence.
Heh~
Zhou Qiteng and Zhou Xinlan have been at odds since childhood.
Although they are siblings.
Zhou Qiteng is a few years younger than Zhou Xinlan, and Zhou Xinlan is considered the most outstanding person by all the elders.
A girl who was able to stand on her own and become the head of the Zhou family.
Everyone praised it.
Therefore, from the moment he was born, he was overshadowed by the name Zhou Xinlan.
Zhou Xinlan is outstanding and extremely ambitious.
She has a strong personality and, apart from her appearance, doesn't resemble a woman at all.
She had never wanted to talk to him since she was little, and every time she did, it was in a lecturing tone.
It was as if he deserved to be lectured by her.
Zhou Qiteng absolutely could not tolerate this.
What was even more unexpected was that when he reached school age, it was his older sister who suggested sending him abroad to study.
To put it bluntly, she just wanted to take over the Zhou family business for herself.
She had been scheming since childhood, so how could he possibly let her succeed so easily?
