The next morning, Zhou Yuanyuan told General Zhou about the nude photos she'd seen of He Shumin being secretly taken by some thugs, and mentioned that He Boqian seemed somewhat dissatisfied with He Shumin. Indeed, Zhou Yuanyuan had seen everything clearly, from He Boqian's reaction when he answered the phone to his reaction after taking He Shumin home. When He Boqian heard over the phone that He Shumin had so easily given "Paradise on Earth" to Boss Hong, the look of ferocity and heartache on his face was unmistakable.
General Zhou was silent for a while, then burst into laughter.
General Zhou felt that revenge like Xiaoguai's great-granddaughter was more satisfying than simply killing He Shumin. Being resented by his own son and harassed by a few thugs willing to sacrifice their lives for money, He Shumin's days were sure to be exciting. He, Zhou Jinyu, didn't have to get his hands dirty; all he had to do was watch the fun from the sidelines and scratch He Shumin's hair. It was sure to be a very interesting time.
General Zhou knew that He Shumin was a restless person, otherwise, He Shumin would not dare to set his sights on him.
The He family has been overreaching these past two years. Not only has He Shumin been recruiting allies from below, but he's also been actively courting his old comrades. Today, he's gifted this leader two kilograms of rare tea, and tomorrow, he's gifted that leader some health-promoting herbs he'd painstakingly acquired. He even once gifted General Zhou a stalk of century-old mountain ginseng, but General Zhou confiscated it and simply returned it.
General Zhou doesn't despise those with desires; a person will strive for what they want. However, General Zhou despises those who will do anything to achieve their desires. He Shumin, for his own sake, has resorted to all means. If such a person were to hold a high position, his mind would surely be preoccupied with amassing wealth or securing his position. How could he have time to care for the people's livelihood?
If Zhou Yuanyuan hadn't told him, General Zhou would not have known that He Boqian was secretly running an entertainment city.
General Zhou was born into a wealthy family. When he was young, due to work needs, he disguised himself as a playboy and went to various nightclubs in the Shanghai Concession to gather intelligence for the revolutionary cause.
In General Zhou's eyes, the entertainment city that has just emerged in Kyoto is no different from the nightclubs in Shanghai in the past. They are all places where filth and dirt are hidden.
In General Zhou's view, they were a revolutionary generation and must set an example. Even if someone in the family was interested in business, they should engage in honest and upright industries. Places like the Entertainment City were too filthy. How could He Shumin allow his children to do anything for money?
"Alas! He Shumin has really lost his mind. The He family is in trouble." General Zhou shook his head and finally came to this conclusion.
"Grandpa, if the top beam is crooked, the bottom beam will be crooked too! He Shumin himself is not a good person, so how many good people can there be in his family?" Zhou Yuanyuan said with a curled lip. Just by looking at He Jingjing's usual love of showing off and always trying to be the best, you can tell what kind of family the He family is.
"Forget it, forget it. We don't need to worry about other people's affairs. As long as Xiao Jiasheng and you are fine, great-grandfather will be satisfied!" General Zhou looked at Zhou Yuanyuan with a smile, his heart full of joy. His little great-granddaughter is not only beautiful, good at studying, and highly capable, but also has the best temperament. Whenever she is free, she will chat with him, an old man, and she never gets annoyed. Among the old friends, his great-grandchildren are really outstanding.
He Shumin had even tried to force his good-for-nothing granddaughter into the Zhou family for marriage a while ago. Bah! A toad wanting to eat swan meat!
Money and power can corrode a person's soul. The He family does things by any means necessary, and sooner or later they will arouse public anger!
Seeing that things were going surprisingly smoothly, General Zhou didn't want his little granddaughter to get tired, so he quickly let her go out for some fresh air. Young people, after all! Who doesn't like to run around? General Zhou and Zhao Yunxiang had kept Zhou Yuanyuan at home yesterday, simply because they were worried about her health.
"Yuanyuan, go with your mother to visit your grandfather. Oh, and I have a calligraphy piece here that your grandfather asked for last time. I've finished it, can you please deliver it to me?" To find an excuse for Zhou Yuanyuan to go out for some fresh air, General Zhou pulled a piece of calligraphy from his study and asked her to deliver it to Zhao Qingshan. Before joining the army, General Zhou was a scholar with excellent calligraphy skills. Zhao Qingshan had come over a few days ago and happened to see General Zhou writing and fell in love with it immediately.
General Zhou thought that maybe his relative Zhao liked his calligraphy, so he would definitely write a good one before giving it to him. Unfortunately, General Zhou had just finished writing it a few days ago, and before he could send it to Zhao Qingshan, something went wrong.
"Okay, Great Grandpa, I'll ask my aunt to make some sweet-scented osmanthus cake and bring some back for you." Seeing that General Zhou had something for her to do, Zhou Yuanyuan immediately agreed. It just so happened that she also wanted to go see her grandfather.
General Zhou's ancestral home is in Jiangnan, and he likes delicate southern snacks the most. The sweet-scented osmanthus cake made by Yu Meiru is fragrant and sweet with a smooth texture, and it is also one of General Zhou's favorites.
"Okay, okay." General Zhou responded happily. General Zhou's happiness was not for a bite of food, but because he felt that Zhao Qingshan was not only a man of high character, but also had raised his children well. Not to mention the virtuousness of his grandson's wife, even his brother-in-law Zhao Guohui was a man of high character. He would neither flatter the powerful nor curry favor with the powerful. Their two families were relatives, and Zhou Jinyu had some power, but he had never seen Zhao Guohui come to him to seek benefits for his company. On the contrary, after General Zhou got into trouble this time, Zhao Guohui was busy making inquiries, not at all worried about whether Zhou Jinyu would get into trouble.
Isn't it true that people and relatives should give and take? A friend in need is a friend indeed. The Zhao family treated Zhou Jinyu well, and he, Zhou Jinyu, would surely return the favor with the same care.
As Zhou Yuanyuan spoke to General Zhou, she used her spiritual sense to examine him. Of course, not everyone could see through Zhou Yuanyuan's spiritual sense. It was only with Xiaoyu's spiritual energy flowing through General Zhou's body that Zhou Yuanyuan could do so without hindrance. Seeing that General Zhou hadn't sustained any hidden injuries from the tranquilizers she'd taken over the past few days, Zhou Yuanyuan breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing that General Zhou was fine, Zhou Yuanyuan left with Zhao Yunxiang at ease. Now that Zhou Yuanyuan was well again, Zhao Yunxiang couldn't stay at home any longer. She still had a lot of things to do at the factory! After returning to her parents' home to see her father, Zhao Yunxiang had to rush back to work.
First set a small goal, such as remembering in 1 second: Shukeju mobile version reading website:
