That night, the Zhou family members all gathered at Zhou Lin's residence.
Li Mai arranged for the Xu family to live in her courtyard, and she and Zhou Quan also moved into the Zhou residence.
Old Man Zhou and Mrs. Zhao looked rather grave, and Zhou Lin, Zhou Tao, and Zhou Lei didn't dare to utter a sound.

What's even more terrifying is that they call him "brother" all the time, as if he were their own brother.
