Why didn’t my sister-in-law come?
Zhu Chi raised his eyebrows unconsciously, wondering why Zhu Mo suddenly asked this.
He slowly turned his head to look at Zhu Mo, whose handsome and familiar face was wearing a faint smile.
This was the first time he had seen Zhu Mo smile like this.
On the surface, it looked like a kind smile, but Zhu Chi's intuition told him that it was definitely a smile with bad intentions.
It seems that I want to take this opportunity to establish my prestige. I want to take advantage of the family dinner to give myself a warning and make an example of others?
Humph, no matter how you want to humiliate me, I will endure it.
Boy, do you think that because I, your brother, have lived a few years longer than you, my character is so bad?
Zhu Chi smiled happily, like a cunning fox: "Your sister-in-law went to the Wen family today. If it weren't for the family dinner today, I would probably sit at the Wen family's side."
Everyone present could understand the meaning of these words. Zhu Chi was reminding Zhu Mo that the Wen family was behind him.
In Tianjing City, no matter how inferior the Literary Family is to the Zhu Family, they are definitely not an existence that can be easily ignored in Tianjing City.
The Wen family has extensive roots in Tianjing City, and now with their marriage to the Zhu family, they have taken firm root in the small area of Tianjing City.
Zhu Chi, who already has some reputation in the family and has the Wen family as support, will eventually become a thorn in Zhu Mo's side.
Zhu Mo let out an "oh" and the smile on his face slowly faded.
He put on a relieved look and said, "Brother, I am really happy for you."
"Huh?" Zhu Chi was puzzled, not knowing what Zhu Mo meant.
Isn't he trying to take advantage of the family dinner to make things difficult for me?
"I have always been worried about your relationship with your sister-in-law. I thought you would still be the same as before... Seeing you and your sister-in-law getting along so well, as your younger brother, I feel relieved." Zhu Mo glanced at Zhu Chi and saw that there was no warmth in his voice.
Zhu Mo's words entered Zhu Chi's ears, and Zhu Chi couldn't help but tremble all over: "Your sister-in-law and I have always had a good relationship, you don't have to worry."
"Oh... the relationship is very good, it has always been good." Looking at Zhu Chi, Zhu Mo showed a sneer at the corner of his mouth.
"well..."
Suddenly he sighed, held his forehead with his palm and said painfully: "Now when I think of that night, the scene is still vivid in my mind..."
"I'm really sorry, brother. I couldn't stop father for you."
Zhu Mo tapped his temples lightly with his fingers, pretending to recall the past seriously. After thinking for a long time, he slapped the table:
"Ah! I finally remembered. That woman's name is Ai Xin. Ai Xin from Junke Club."
When Zhu Chi heard the name Ai Xin, his slender eyes widened unconsciously, and the unforgettable memories surged in his heart like a flood.
He bit his lips and murmured, "Ai Xin..."
He muttered to himself, and the scene of his first meeting with her emerged in his mind.
She is so beautiful, so considerate, and has a unique charm in every frown and smile.
But in order to form an alliance with the Wen family, the old man Zhu Min actually killed the woman he loved most.
Zhu Chi, who became more and more restless the more he thought about it, clenched his hands tightly under the table, his knuckles turned white and veins on the back of his hands were exposed.
Zhu Mo was very satisfied with Zhu Chi's reaction, and pretended to ask everyone casually: "Is the Junke Club still there?"
One person immediately replied, "Master, the Junke Club is long gone. The old master ordered someone to blow it up that night."
"Oh~ Tsk tsk, father really went too far."
"That...Butler Tian."
The butler Tian Shuo, who was standing at one side, leaned forward and replied respectfully, "Yes, Master. What do you want me to do?"
"Immediately send someone to open a high-end club called Junke Club. It will be a club dedicated to serving my second brother alone." Zhu Mo said solemnly as if it was a joke.
The others sitting on both sides were secretly cursing Zhu Mo for being insidious.
Does he want to piss Zhu Chi off to death?
You are actually rubbing salt into other people's pain.
"Um...I'm leaving first!"
Zhu Chi, unable to bear it any longer, stood up abruptly without caring about etiquette, and was about to leave after saying something coldly.
Zhu Xiang, who was sitting next to him, sneered, "Zhu Chi, how can you be so ignorant of the rules? You don't even want to attend the first family banquet of the new head of the family?"
Zhu Chi did not reply and continued to walk away with heavy steps.
"I understand how you feel, second brother. Go back and have a good rest."
"After all, no one can accept that their loved one was stepped on the back and strangled to death."
Seeing Zhu Chi gradually going away, Zhu Mo's voice also became louder:
"I should have stopped it from happening, stopped your father from killing your playmates. You must not hate your brother."
Of course, Zhu Chi didn't know that everyone except Ai Xin was killed by Zhu Mo.
Anyway, Zhu Min can't speak anymore, so it's no big deal for him to take the blame for his son.
With the loud sound of a door closing, Zhu Chi disappeared from everyone's sight.
When he arrived at the door, Zhu Chi's face finally couldn't hold back and became ferocious.
Extremely angry, he took out his cell phone from his pocket with trembling hands.
After staring at the phone indifferently for a while, Zhu Chi made up his mind to open the address book and call his wife Wen Hanqiao.
Soon the call was connected, and Wen Hanqiao's soft voice came: "Hello, husband. What's the matter? We just finished dinner and happened to be talking about you."
"My good son-in-law, why don't you come to my house and have a drink with me soon? Don't be discouraged because you didn't become the head of the family...hiccup."
Wen Zhong, who was drunk beside Wen Hanqiao, was shouting.
"Hehe... maybe another day, father-in-law."
"Hanqiao, I'll send a car to pick you up now." Zhu Chi said with a hint of ruthlessness in his eyes.
