Chapter 167 Too Scheming
Zhou Jingang pulled Zhou Hengzhi away a little, so that they were facing another transparent floor-to-ceiling window on the rooftop. Zhou Hengzhi sat down and pointed at the opposite rooftop, saying, "This is outrageous!"
Upon hearing this, they looked over and saw Su Yuanzheng pressing Xia Yutong down on the rooftop and kissing her.
Zhou Hengzhi's brain exploded instantly.
"elder brother……"
Zhou Jin quickly pulled him back, Zhou Hengzhi's eyes were bloodshot, "Did you see that?"
"So what if they saw it? They're a married couple with kids; everyone knows that!"
Zhou Jin tried to keep a low profile and took a deep breath. "Brother, you need to be patient. Think about it, everyone knows you love Xia Yutong but can't have her. Before, it was just hearsay. If you make a scene in this situation today, people will really laugh at you."
Before he could finish speaking, he saw Ah Huan holding a wine glass.
Ah Huan ran into Li Miao when he came out, and Li Miao teased him, "Not bad, not bad, you look very handsome in a suit!"
"Wait, what's that thing here?"
Zhou Jin's face turned pale instantly. He wouldn't answer her calls no matter what, and now he dared to flirt with another woman right in front of her. How outrageous!
Zhou Jin's face turned pale, and her mind went blank. She grabbed her wine glass and rushed over.
Just as Li Miao finished removing the dirt from Ah Huan's body and was about to leave, Zhou Jin, who was walking towards her, splashed a glass of wine on Ah Huan's face.
Caught off guard, the man was splashed all over his face, his eyelashes getting wet...
Li Miao looked terrified and somewhat frightened. She stared at the person in front of her, her brows furrowed tightly. "You, you are..."
"You bitch!"
Zhou Jin was furious.
No wonder Ah Huan kept ignoring her; it turns out he had someone else outside.
Just then, Li Miao jumped back in fright, and Ah Huan grabbed Zhou Jin's hand, saying, "Mind your place."
Zhou Hengzhi's face darkened. "Who are you talking to?"
"With her."
Their eyes met, and Zhou Hengzhi's eyes blazed with anger. Ah Huan's gaze was no better; he scrutinized Zhou Hengzhi with utter disgust.
He was already tired of serving the Zhou siblings. If they met again, they could get along well if the siblings didn't cause any trouble.
Are you alright?
Ah Huan asked Li Miao, and Li Miao quickly shook her head.
She just realized that the two looked very familiar; weren't they the Zhou sisters, the arrogant Zhou Shi...
Li Miaolai was just there to make up the numbers and didn't want to get into trouble. She noticed that Ah Huan and Zhou Jin's relationship was unusual and explained, "We're not in the kind of relationship you're thinking of."
Li Miao hurriedly tried to distance herself from him, saying, "I have absolutely no relationship with him. I'm married, I have a husband. Don't misunderstand, don't misunderstand!"
After saying that, Li Miao left, but Zhou Jin had no reason to believe her explanation.
"Ah Huan, I really misjudged you."
"Luckily I've never misjudged you; you'll always be this unreasonable."
Zhou Hengzhi was already in a bad mood, and when he saw his assistant stepping on his head, he sneered, "What did you just say?"
"I said..."
Shang Xingchuan appeared with a beautiful woman in his arms, "How lively..."
"Big brother."
"Xingnan, chatting with President Zhou? Old friends catching up, nice." Shang Xingchuan took a sip of wine as if nothing had happened, and seeing Zhou Hengzhi's discomfiture, his interest grew even stronger.
"Mr. Zhou, would you like a drink?"
"Please enjoy your drink, Mr. Shang."
Today's gathering made Zhou Hengzhi realize even more clearly that everyone had fooled him.
Fuming with anger, Zhou Hengzhi left first.
Inside the car, Zhou Jin asked him, "Brother, this is infuriating! It's even more infuriating than me going to jail. Ah Huan thinks he has the backing of a business owner and doesn't take me seriously at all. Even if he's going to find someone, he should find someone prettier than me. He deliberately found someone less attractive than me just to embarrass me and to make me furious."
Zhou Hengzhi didn't speak, and closed his eyes to rest.
Ah Huan was fired by him personally, and to be precise, he really couldn't find any fault with him.
As for Xia Yutong, he used to think that she was deliberately trying to provoke him and embarrass him. So much so that at first, he didn't take it to heart, thinking that she would naturally come to beg him after a while.
As a result, Su Yuanzheng's rose garden later became so popular, and Xia Yutong also became famous for her handicrafts, no longer needing to rely on him for survival.
If only he could have gone to see her sooner.
"Brother, say something! What am I supposed to do if Ah Huan doesn't care about me and won't marry me?"
Zhou Jin's eyes were brimming with tears. "Lin Wang doesn't want me, and neither does he. Doesn't that make me an unwanted, abandoned woman?"
"Don't make a sound."
He can't even solve his own problems, how can he help her?
As Zhou Jin recalled her complicated relationship with A Huan, she felt increasingly resentful.
"If I had known he was the merchant's illegitimate son, I should have been a little nicer to him..."
——
After the Zhou siblings left, the banquet became much quieter, and Xia Yutong no longer had to be on tenterhooks.
As soon as Su Yuanzheng appeared, many people recognized him. Some investors talked to him about cooperation, but Su Yuanzheng was busy socializing with them, and their eyes were always on him.
"So that's farming?"
"Don't say that, they run tourist attractions."
"Aren't you a farmer who sells flowers?"
"You underestimate him. The village in the south has gradually developed into a tourist destination. It's just a pity that it's winter now. Once the weather warms up, you'll see that it will be a magnificent sight."
"I don't believe it, in such a remote and impoverished place..."
There were all sorts of opinions, but Xia Yutong didn't care. She believed that her man would achieve great things.
“In remote and impoverished areas, she receives a constant stream of orders for handicrafts, surpassing even some high-end workshops in the city.”
Hua Xin walked up and interrupted the women's conversation, "It's just cheap stuff that's not presentable. Only some shady people would buy it. People who really know their stuff wouldn't spend a penny on her mediocre skills."
Upon seeing Hua Hin, the women gave an awkward laugh. "Yes, Mrs. Zhou, you're right, we were just saying..."
They couldn't afford to offend Hua Hin, so they quickly slipped away.
Xia Yutong sat comfortably in her seat, enjoying desserts and drinks. Her figure and looks were top-notch, her eyes clear and captivating. She seemed to be immersed in happiness, her face radiating bliss…
Her man, Su Yuanzheng, dressed in a sharp suit, chatted with several investors in the crowd. Hua Xin snorted coldly for no reason.
Sitting next to Xia Yutong, Hua Xin dared not make any rash moves. She said sarcastically, "You think you're part of high society just because you've infiltrated this place? You think you can show your true colors and reveal your poor, pathetic faces just because you have a few coins in your pocket? Be careful, or you'll be exposed."
"The platform invited us here, not you..."
It's practically saying, "None of your business."
Hua Xin glanced at the pastries in her hand. "There aren't any pastries this good in the poor countryside, are there? Your real purpose is to eat and drink for free. After all, you're too poor to afford them..."
"Yes, we should eat whatever we can, and broaden our horizons."
He remained neither humble nor arrogant, which angered Hua Hin so much that she had no choice but to get up and leave.
This woman is scheming and shameless...
