Zhou Jiyun was very calm: "He asked me to call a truce, and I agreed."
"You agreed? How could you agree?" Yun Xu's voice became a little higher: "Are you stupid?"
Zhou Jiyun explained: "I just agreed verbally, how could I really stop? He has done so many wrong things, he should be punished."
"I agree, it was just a feint. We both knew it was all nonsense. Anyone who took it seriously would be a fool."
"Zhou Jiwen is just expressing his stance, pretending to surrender. If I let my guard down, that would be the best, as it would buy him some time."
Yun Xu smacked his lips, then looked at Xie Jing: "Jingjing, is your husband so shady?"
Xie Jing came back to her senses: "I never thought he was shady, he was just protecting himself."
Yun Xu leaned back in the back seat: "Well, I shouldn't have said that."
"A Zhao, we should be under the car, not inside it."
Yun Zhao ignored Yun Xu's antics and said, "I can't quite understand why your cousin is so calm."
Zhou Jiyun sneered: "He has always been a heartless person, so it's no surprise that he is so calm."
"He's heartless and disloyal?" Yun Zhao frowned. "He's heartless and disloyal. Hasn't he been seeing that married woman for years? And for her sake, he even tricked her into marrying a rich girl?"
Yun Xu also became serious: "I don't think he did it for Jiang Cha. I think he did it for himself. He just used women as an excuse. Aren't there many such cases in history?"
"The saying goes that beautiful women are the root of all trouble. Is it really always the women's fault in the end?"
Zhou Jiyun laughed and said, "I also think that's an excuse. Otherwise, Jiang Cha has been divorced for a long time, why hasn't Zhou Jiwen obtained a marriage certificate with her yet? It's nothing more than an excuse."
Yun Xu was curious: "How sincere and genuine do you think he is towards Jiang Cha? Or does he have any true and genuine feelings towards someone like Zhou Jiwen?"
Zhou Jiyun: "Who knows? Even if there is, it should be pitifully small, right? Just look at how he treats Zhou Zhida and Fang Qin, and you can see it."
On the way back, Jiang Cha also asked about this matter: "Your eldest brother...will he really not bother you from now on?"
Yes, Jiang Cha also came to the police station, but in order not to upset Fang Qin, Jiang Cha did not go in, but waited for Zhou Jiwen in the car. She divorced for Zhou Jiwen, and now she can't go back to the Jiang family, so she can only hold on to Zhou Jiwen tightly.
Zhou Jiwen nodded: "He agreed verbally."
"Verbally?" Jiang Cha wasn't a pure, flawless little white flower, so she could hear the hidden meaning behind his words. Her expression became more serious. "But behind the scenes, he won't stop?"
"How can I stop?" Zhou Jiwen sneered: "He and I will fight to the death. Only one of us can survive."
"Why?" Jiang Cha was particularly surprised. "You didn't do anything harmful to him, so why are you so persistent?"
Zhou Jiwen frowned: "You don't understand."
If he hadn't been reborn, perhaps Zhou Jiyun wouldn't have wanted to kill him. But since he was reborn, in Zhou Jiyun's eyes, he was the culprit who killed him.
No one wants to see a murderer live a good life. In the end, he and Zhou Jiyun really had to fight to the death. For the first time in his life, Zhou Jiwen felt a little regretful.
He should have gotten rid of Lin Nan and Lin Zhida at the beginning of his rebirth, so that there would not be so many troubles now. Unfortunately, when he met Lin Nan in his previous life, Lin Nan was already dead, and he did not know the secret that Lin Nan had carefully hidden.
Unexpectedly, in his new life, Zhou Jiyun learned Lin Nan's secret, which turned out to be evidence of Zhou Zhida's murder. It was just a wrong move, but now the whole game is lost.
Zhou Jiwen gritted his teeth at the thought. He had thought that his rebirth would be all according to his ideas. After all, Zhou Jiyun had died at his hands in his previous life.
Even though Zhou Jiyun was reborn, Zhou Jiwen didn't pay much attention. He thought that if he could kill Zhou Jiyun once, he could kill him a second time. After all, in Zhou Jiwen's view, his eldest cousin was too upright, and such a person could not defeat a villain like him.
But Zhou Jiwen never expected that, once again, his good cousin would resort to trickery when dealing with his relatives. And now, he was forced to retreat step by step by such a person.
Jiang Cha fell silent for a long time before speaking: "I'll go and ask him, after all, you are brothers..."
"It's useless," Zhou Jiwen rolled down the window slightly. "He won't be soft-hearted. There's such a deep hatred between him and me. He won't let me go."
"What did you do?" Jiang Cha felt something was wrong and asked casually.
Zhou Jiwen stopped talking: "Let me take you home. I have to go to the company later."
Seeing Zhou Jiwen's attitude, Jiang Cha knew there was no room for negotiation. She picked at the strap of her bag, her eyes full of confusion. There was a test report in her bag, which she had originally wanted to tell Zhou Jiwen, to share the joy of that moment with him.
But now, Jiang Cha hesitated. Yes, no matter how deep her filter for Zhou Jiwen was, she knew that Zhou Jiwen was not that capable. He just had the halo of being the second young master of the Zhou family. Apart from that, he was... mediocre.
If the conflict between Zhou Jiyun and Zhou Jiwen was so deep, would she really hang herself on Zhou Jiwen? Moreover, she and Zhou Jiwen had not obtained a marriage certificate, and Jiang Cha knew in her heart that Zhou Jiwen's feelings for her were obviously discounted.
It wasn't the last minute yet, so Jiang Cha wasn't in a rush. With the rapid pace of events, Jiang Cha felt the truth should be out before the end of the year.
If Zhou Jiwen won, she would naturally tell him the news. But if Zhou Jiwen lost, she would abort the child and leave S City. After all, she had a lot of money in her hands and could easily find a place to start over.
So, Jiang Cha and Zhou Jiwen, who are the closest and most distant couple, are not yet husband and wife. It’s quite sad to think about it this way.
With Zhou Zhida's arrest, the Zhou family's company inevitably faced another wave of turmoil. The shareholders didn't dare to speak up against Zhou Jiyun, so they could only vent their anger on Fang Qin and Zhou Jiwen.
After all, all these troubles were caused by the second wife.
Perhaps it was because he hurt Mr. Zhou's feelings at the police station on Sunday, or perhaps it was to support the second wife, or perhaps it was to teach Zhou Jiyun a lesson. Zhou Jiwen, who was originally sent to the branch company, now appeared in the head office again and took Zhou Zhida's position.
Zhou Jiyun had obviously guessed this situation, but he didn't say a word. The Zhou family's company had been in trouble for a long time. Is this the disadvantage of a family business? Even if Mr. Zhou retired, he still had a lot of control over the company.
