When Zhou Ningshuang saw Grandpa Zhou, it was as if she had seen a savior. She struggled to say, "Dad, please help me! I didn't do anything! Please save me..."
At this moment, Zhou Ningshuang had completely lost her previous elegance; her hair was disheveled and her facial expression was ferocious.
Zhou Xinlan stood a short distance away with her arms crossed, not approaching.
She had long suspected her aunt of having ulterior motives. Although she wasn't sure what exactly she had done, judging from Grandpa's attitude...
The mistake she made must have been very serious.
There's no need to save someone like Zhou Ningshuang.
Too many malicious intentions; the Zhou family cannot tolerate such a person.
Old Master Zhou sighed heavily again and said to Ji Huaishen, "I'll leave it to you to handle. After all, she's a member of the Zhou family. So, spare her life."
After all, she was his daughter. Even though she had made a mistake, he couldn't bear to see his daughter suffer the loss of his own child.
Ji Huaishen nodded, waved his hand, and ordered someone to take Zhou Ningshuang away.
Mu Xiaocheng suddenly understood why Ji Huaishen had come to this birthday banquet.
The Zhou family members are all very secretive.
Zhou Ningshuang is one of them.
And the one who kept it very well hidden was Zhou Guangbo.
Mu Xiaocheng looked up and gazed in the direction where Zhou Guangbo was standing.
He watched the scene with great interest, holding a bottle of wine in his hand, looking every bit the idle playboy.
This scene today was probably staged by Ji Huaishen for Zhou Guangbo's benefit.
Zhou Ningshuang's matter will definitely involve Zhou Guangbo.
Some things, once exposed, will rise from the ground. Zhou Guangbo must be anxious now, anxious that he will be exposed, so he will definitely do something.
Mu Xiaocheng couldn't see Zhou Guangbo clearly.
However, the person who can make Ji Huai so wary and who has laid such a trap must be a very troublesome individual.
"They're gone."
Ji Huaishen's cool and indifferent voice rang in Mu Xiaocheng's ears.
He took her soft, delicate hand and led her towards the main gate.
Mu Xiaocheng moved her lips slightly, looked around curiously, and asked, "Why aren't Aunt and Uncle here?"
That shouldn't be the case.
This is Grandpa Zhou's birthday banquet, so Auntie couldn't possibly not come.
Ji Huaishen narrowed his eyes, a faint smile appearing on his lips.
"Zhou Ningyi has always held a grudge against Old Master Zhou."
Holding a grudge?
Mu Xiaocheng raised an eyebrow: "Because of Zhou Ningshuang?"
Ji Huai nodded.
"Zhou Ningshuang will tell you about Zhou Ningshuang and Zhou Ningyi, as well as the real cause of your mother's death."
"Zhou Ningshuang is a person who will not let others have an easy time if she suffers. Especially Zhou Ningyi."
Mu Xiaocheng understood the meaning behind Ji Huaishen's words.
It seems that Zhou Ningshuang truly hates Zhou Ningyi.
Zhou Guangbo stood still and drank the wine in his glass in one gulp.
As he watched Old Master Zhou approach, he gave a cold smirk.
"Are you just going to watch Ji Huaishen take Ning Shuang away?"
Faced with Zhou Guangbo's questioning, the old man sighed and did not answer directly. Instead, he said earnestly, "Guangbo, stop."
"Heh~"
Zhou Guangbo sneered.
Should we stop?
How could I possibly stop!
He has worked hard for so many years, determined to achieve something great and no longer rely on the Zhou family.
He has worked so hard for so long and is now achieving great success. Is it time for him to retire?
Ha, you must be joking.
Zhou Guangbo looked at Old Master Zhou with a cold smile: "Old man, what makes you think I'll listen to you?"
"Now you want to be a good father?"
