"No, nothing." Zhou Yi felt a little embarrassed. It was all Li Zhao's fault. He made it seem as if Senior Brother Lian Guoying was a man-eating person, which made her a little confused.
Lian Guoying is obviously a gentle and elegant man, with a temperament very similar to her father Su Mingzhe. He is worthy of being the first adopted child. His demeanor is exactly the same as Su Mingzhe. No one would doubt that he is his biological son.
"Did Li Zhao mention me to you?" Lian Guoying looked at Zhou Yi with a smile.
"Senior Brother, your demeanor is similar to my dad's. Even your smile is very similar." Zhou Yi did not answer Lian Guoying, but changed the subject. After all, in her heart, she was much more familiar with Li Zhao than Lian Guoying, and she would not sell out Li Zhao.
"A lot of people say so, but I've followed my dad since I was a child, so it's normal for me to look like him. After all, my dad is my idol." Lian Guoying glanced at Zhou Yi and Su Mingzhe, smiled and replied.
Zhou Yi smiled, but before he could say anything, Qin Qin took over and betrayed Li Zhao completely, repeating to Lian Guoying exactly what Li Zhao and He Zhan had said last night.
Lian Guoying's expression remained unchanged after hearing this. He simply said softly, "Dad, Li Zhao is still not mature enough."
"Indeed, he still acts like a young boy." Su Mingzhe nodded in agreement.
After hearing this, Zhou Yi suddenly had a bad feeling and instinctively prayed for Li Zhao for a second.
After they finished their meal, Qin Qin got into Lian Guoying's car and drove in front. Zhou Yi and Su Mingzhe followed in a car. After driving for about an hour, they arrived at a big house.
The Lingnan-style Xiguan mansion in Yangcheng is very different from the small building in Jinghai, but they both have a very unique feel.
Even Zhou Yi in his previous life had never seen such a well-maintained Xiguan mansion. It was a protected cultural relic.
The tall main entrance hall and garden are combined, with exquisite decoration, brick and wood structure, and three-entry style. It is exquisite and elegant. Zhou Yi really never thought that he would be able to live in the Xiguan house in this life.
You know, there is a saying in Guangzhou that has been passed down through the ages: "Miss Xiguan, Young Master Dongshan". After her rebirth, she also has the opportunity to experience the life of a Miss Xiguan.
"Dad, I spent a lot of effort to preserve your Xiguan mansion." Lian Guoying looked at Su Mingzhe and said with some pride.
Zhou Yi looked at Lian Guoying who was begging for reward in front of Su Mingzhe like a child, and felt that Li Zhao was exaggerating.
Lian Guoying was nothing like what he described, but Zhou Yi soon realized that Li Zhao was not exaggerating.
"Guoying, you have worked hard these past few years. Not only do you have to take care of the industries in the south, but you also have to look after your fellow apprentices." Su Mingzhe patted Lian Guoying's shoulder and said seriously.
"Dad, don't just talk and don't practice. Do something substantial. For example, let me take the annual leave I have had over the years." Lian Guoying also looked at Su Mingzhe seriously.
"How can you be so cruel? You are going on vacation. Do you want me, an old man with white hair, to take charge of the industry in the south, or do you want your delicate little sister to take charge?" Su Mingzhe looked at Lian Guoying unhappily.
Zhou Yi was secretly happy. Fortunately, she had not agreed to take over her father's huge family business before, otherwise she would have cried now. Even the eldest senior brother didn't want to take the responsibility. It was estimated that the other senior brothers were also forced by their father.
Once she takes over, won’t she be exhausted to death?
"Dad, I haven't celebrated the New Year with you and my master's wife for several years." Lian Guoying began to complain.
He really envied his junior fellow students, who were all spending the New Year in Jinghai this year. Then he looked at himself, staying alone in the south.
"Guoying, you are the eldest brother and the most capable senior brother, so you must have a great responsibility. Just hold on for a few more years and then hand it over to your junior sister." Su Mingzhe glanced at Zhou Yi.
Zhou Yi suddenly shuddered. She had seen the family business before. It was such a huge business empire that she couldn't manage it.
Seeing Zhou Yi was about to refuse, Su Mingzhe quickly gave her a look.
If Zhou Yi started to refuse at this time, Su Mingzhe would be in trouble because Lian Guoying would definitely keep pestering him.
Zhou Yi also understood that Su Mingzhe's statement was just a temporary measure. Who knows what will happen in a few years?
"Will Junior Sister really take over then?" Lian Guoying looked at Su Mingzhe and Zhou Yi with some disbelief.
"If she doesn't take over, who will? I tell you, as long as your junior sister can't take over, you can't let go." Su Mingzhe actually said it openly in front of Zhou Yi.
Take over?! Zhou Yi really wanted to say that she had not agreed to take over, but it was not easy to destroy Su Mingzhe's plan now.
She always felt like she was being tricked by her own father.
"Junior sister, is that so?" Lian Guoying asked Zhou Yi.
Zhou Yihao wanted to say no directly, but she couldn't say it, so she could only smile awkwardly, and this smile was full of meaning.
Su Mingzhe saw that his evil plan had succeeded, while Lian Guoying believed that Zhou Yi would really take over in the future.
Zhou Yi's original intention was just not to ruin Su Mingzhe's plan at this moment.
"Okay, why are you standing here at the door? If you have anything to say, go inside first." Qin Qin looked at them with a smile, not caring at all about who would take over the family business in the future. It wouldn't be her anyway.
When Zhou Yi heard Qin Qin's words, it was as if he had heard an imperial decree of amnesty. He quickly took her hand and walked into the house.
Zhou Yi's room is on the second floor, connected to a large terrace outside. She really has a preference for terraces. No matter how good a house is, if it lacks a terrace, it is like a person without a soul.
Qin Qin was exhausted from the day's journey, so she washed up and went to rest early.
Su Mingzhe and Lian Guoying went into the study. Zhou Yi didn't want to follow them, for fear that they would talk about asking her to take over the huge family business.
She asked the servant to make her a pot of scented tea, sat on the terrace, and felt the atmosphere of Guangzhou in this era.
She shouted loudly in her heart: Guangzhou, I am back.
In her previous life, she was very familiar with Guangzhou, and the headquarters of the Meiyi brand she founded was also here.
But the Guangzhou I see now is very different from the one in my previous life. There are not so many skyscrapers, but it is full of Lingnan characteristics everywhere.
Whether in her previous life or now, she has always had a preference for Guangzhou. Even though it is a mixed bag of good and bad people now, she has the confidence to establish her own reputation here and even take the lead.
"Junior sister, the scenery in Guangzhou is pretty good, right?" Lian Guoying's voice suddenly came from behind, which really scared Zhou Yi.
