Chapter 9: Not Doing Business



There were big objects in the big box, and Xiao Yu felt that they were of little use. He took a look and aimed at the small box.

He stood up and moved four or five of them to his side. When he took them out, he found three sets of pens, each of which he liked; the other two contained six notebooks of different sizes, with exquisite covers and sharp paper.

Pens and notebooks are definitely his true love. Ever since Xiao Yu started to like writing, he has been particularly fond of collecting white paper, letter paper, notebooks, etc.

He always felt that he could write the most wonderful stories on these clean papers.

He carefully placed it in a bag so that he could carry it to his study when he left.

Because he got what he liked, he opened the small gift box.

Sure enough, almost all the items in it were what he liked, such as high-end hardcover cowhide notebooks, genuine leather notebooks with page turns, parchment books and vintage kraft paper notebooks; brush sets, exquisite pen holders, beautiful inkstones, rice paper sets, thermos cups, tea sets; pens of various models and shapes, as well as hardcover pen cases, men's leather bags, women's sachets, belts, sports watches, beads like Buddhist beads, etc.

Of course, there were also items that were too tasteless for him. Examples included jade jewelry sets, gold and silver jewelry sets, pearl jewelry sets, men's ties, pipes, wild honey, deer antlers, ginseng, saffron, Panax notoginseng, Dendrobium officinale, Ganoderma lucidum, tobacco and alcohol, calligraphy and paintings, and a complete tea set in a larger box, various luxurious and valuable ornaments, embroidered scarves, women's cheongsams, and men's Tang suits.

Xiao Yu packed his favorites into several bags to make it easier to move around. From the items he didn't need, he picked out two women's cheongsams, two embroidered scarves, a seemingly ordinary handbag, two middle-aged men's Tang suits, two belts, a thermos, and two bottles of Maotai and placed them in another area.

He was going to ask Zhou Yanzhi before going to bed. If the other party really didn't want it, he would pack it up and mail it back tomorrow as a Father's Day gift for his biological father. Well, the one for his biological mother was also included.

As for those jewelry, forget it. They are too valuable and he would feel guilty if he took them.

A sanatorium for senior cadres in the capital, nine o'clock in the evening, Building 5.

"Old man, aren't you angry?" A middle-aged man with a crew cut, about fifty years old, wearing a white shirt and green military pants, walked in quickly from outside the door and carefully observed the white-haired old man sitting on the rattan chair in the house.

The old man is now ninety-six years old and looks relatively healthy, but after all, he has lived through that era and has many fatal hidden injuries on his body. He may collapse at any time.

However, no matter how careful these security guards are, sometimes they are unable to guard against any danger. For example, just now, during the holiday, as soon as the old man's descendants left, someone came to the door and teased the old man's grandson without knowing the reason.

Those people are not afraid of the revenge of the prince. Are they planning to anger the old man to death in one fell swoop, so that the entire Zhou family will fall apart, or are they planning to destroy the entire family themselves?

“Haha!” The old man who had been resting with his eyes closed opened them, but his eyes were full of disdain. He raised his hand to push away the middle-aged man who was about to get close to his face, and said disdainfully, “Don’t be so nervous. If you want to hide it from me, it depends on whether I am willing or not.

Besides, our Yanzhi is already 32 years old this year. He has been alone these past few years, always keeping to himself. I am worried that he will end up alone.

This is actually quite good, there is someone who understands his feelings and is someone he likes. It is better than those who have their own thoughts.

It’s lonely at the top!

Those people came here just to stir up trouble. My own grandson, how could I possibly side with them and cause trouble for him? Besides, I've already had Xiao Liu investigate and look at the child's information. He's a little young, but he's very measured in everything he does.

He was taken into the nest by our family's guy. I pretended not to know before, but I was too embarrassed to tell him! After all, I am twelve years older than him. If his parents knew about it, I would be embarrassed!

The middle-aged man tried hard to observe the old man's expression, trying to see what the other person was hiding from his expression.

"So, what about the police station?" the middle-aged man asked tentatively.

The old man was even more disdainful. "Speaking of this, I just wanted to scold him. They are obviously a bunch of beasts, but he made me sound like the victim. Did he never become young, or did I never become young? Who didn't like to go to restaurants when they were young? If you guys weren't meddling in this and that and not allowing me, I would still go to restaurants. Besides, I heard that a group of kids eat at around nine o'clock in the evening, and it's just in front of the school. Hey, it's summer, what's wrong with having a barbecue in front of the school? As for complaining to me, an old man? In my opinion, I didn't hit that kid lightly. I only kicked him once. If anyone dared to offend me, I would kick him ten times to vent my hatred."

"...The old man is right."

"Anyway, as long as our family doesn't suffer any loss, it's fine. It is said that Zhou Yanzhi used his strength to force others to submit."

"This..." The middle-aged man was embarrassed to say.

"It's embarrassing to talk about this. He was plotted against in his own territory. He is getting worse and worse."

"The prince has severely punished those people."

"By the way, I remember that kid was a novelist?" The old man changed the subject.

“…Yes.” The middle-aged man nodded hesitantly, his eyes still fixed on the old man’s face.

"Go find it for me. I want to read it."

"Uh, now?" It was past nine o'clock and the old man was going to bed.

The old man knew what he was thinking the moment he saw him like that. He waved his fan and said, "Why, it's a big holiday, and you expect me to go to bed before it's completely dark?"
