Zhao Ziyao was quite surprised when she received calls from her older sisters.
She had just arrived in Beijing. She was studying at an art academy, which, being a national-level art academy, was indeed a mecca for all art students.
She also hopes to achieve something in her studies, not necessarily to become a painter, but at least to fulfill her dream through her own abilities.
In her previous life, Zhao Ziyao was known as a talented young lady because of the support of the Zhao family.
Therefore, back then, Zhao Ziyao could draw anything and people would buy it, since many people were eager to curry favor with the Zhao family in Shanghai.
More importantly, Zhao Ziyao's achievements in her previous life were also related to Zhao Ziyun and the Zhao family in the capital.
It will quickly make her famous.
But now, without all that support, it will be really difficult for Zhao Ziyao to make a name for herself using her original talents.
It's even impossible.
The reason the older sisters were able to succeed was because they had already benefited from the Zhao family's influence. But after Zhao Ziyao's death, they could no longer even leverage the advantages of the Zhao family in Shanghai.
Because Zhao Guohua has now become a pariah, everyone knows that he has offended a big shot in Beijing, and there is no room for maneuver.
Therefore, Zhao Guohua is now in an even more passive position, and everyone wants to kick him while he's down in order to curry favor with the bigwigs in Beijing.
Moreover, Zhao Chen did continue his actions, but he became even more discreet.
After all, he could have done many things easily in the past because not many people paid attention to him.
But things are different now. He represents the face of the Zhao family in the capital, and everyone is watching him closely.
He can't just let others have leverage over him.
Therefore, many things are done more secretly, but they are more deadly!
For Zhao Guohua now, it's impossible to make a comeback with that little money.
Because in Shanghai, no one is willing to do business with him anymore.
Even if he wanted to seek a breakthrough elsewhere, no one would risk offending the bigwigs in Beijing to help him!
Therefore, the only way out for the Zhao family in Shanghai was to go abroad.
This is a way out for many people, but for the Zhao family, they don't know if it's the right choice.
However, they had no idea that if they didn't go abroad, things would be fine, but once they did, Zhao Chen's ruthless tricks were already waiting for them.
It could very well wipe them out in an instant, sending them back to square one.
Of course, this is something the Zhao family of Shanghai needs to consider, not something Zhao Ziyao can consider. She doesn't yet know that her future is full of hardships.
Things simply won't go as smoothly as I've imagined.
Previously, she considered herself to have great talent for painting. Both her teachers and classmates said she was a genius, and she actually believed it.
She has just arrived at the art academy and has attracted a lot of attention, even caused a sensation, because of her outstanding looks.
Some enthusiastic people have already named her the most beautiful girl in the art academy this year.
Since art academies are full of students studying art, many girls are exposed to art from the beginning, so they have a very good temperament and there are quite a few beauties.
Even in a place teeming with beautiful women, Zhao Ziyao still stands out from the crowd, which is enough to prove that her looks are truly stunning.
It has to be said that the Zhao family's genes are indeed impressive; whether it's the main family or branches, the children and descendants are all very good-looking.
Just look at the original five beauties of the Zhao family in Shanghai; each one was a stunning beauty.
Zhao Chen goes without saying; as the prodigy of the clan, after losing weight, his looks are comparable to those of the readers.
At this time, Zhao Ziyao undoubtedly benefited from her good looks. Although Zhao Guohua's family was not as wealthy as before, even a fallen camel is bigger than a horse. Compared to many ordinary people, Zhao Ziyao was still considered to be from a well-off family.
Moreover, the demeanor and temperament cultivated from childhood are no joke.
For her classmates, Zhao Ziyao is indeed quite amazing now.
Therefore, Zhao Ziyao was very popular from the very beginning.
Since most of the people Zhao Ziyao knew back then had stayed in Shanghai, her arrival in Beijing was like starting over, which naturally reduced a lot of her psychological burden.
So life is still pretty good.
Moreover, Zhao Ziyao is a very smart girl who knows that she cannot place all her hopes on the Zhao family in Shanghai.
The ruthlessness of Zhao Guohua and his wife has been fully demonstrated in the lives of Zhao Chen, Zhao Ziyun, and several of their older sisters.
Therefore, she herself needs to prepare early.
Fortunately, Zhao Ziyao did not forget to keep in touch with her other sisters.
Therefore, Zhao Ziyao and her older sisters have always had a good relationship.
Zhao Ziyao was naturally quite happy to suddenly hear that several of her older sisters had contacted her.
"Fifth Sister, something terrible has happened! Brother Ziyun has gone missing."
“He has been missing for a while. I was afraid something might have happened to him, so he had no chance to contact us.”
“We have already reported the case to the police, but I think this matter may be related to Zhao Chen.”
"Now that you're both in the same city, in Beijing, why don't you try contacting Zhao Chen?"
"After all, you were in the same school back then, so it seems like you didn't have that much of a grudge."
Hearing her sisters' suggestion, Zhao Ziyao couldn't help but smile wryly:
"Sisters, aren't you overestimating me?"
"What abilities do I have that allow me to speak with Zhao Chen?"
"On the contrary, Zhao Chen and I had quite a few conflicts back in school."
"Back then, I was too embarrassed to say that he was my younger brother."
“I never lifted a finger to help him when he was being bullied, so his resentment towards me is probably no less than that of any of you.”
When Zhao Ziyao said this, the other sisters fell silent.
Yes, back then they all avoided Zhao Chen like the plague.
There was absolutely no intention to acknowledge the other party.
Not only did they not acknowledge him, they even treated him as a punching bag, a scapegoat, someone they could bully and manipulate at will.
They did many excessive things.
Looking back now, they all feel that they were really too cold-blooded and too much. If it were anyone else, they probably would have killed them on the spot.
But at the time, they seemed to have been deceived.
Now, it's all too late for regrets.
At this moment, Zhao Yunlan said directly, "In the end, we are both wrong, but I was especially wrong, and I really regret it."
"Fifth Sister, I have an academic conference to attend in a few days in the capital. I'll come to see you then."
"We'll go together and apologize to Zhao Chen. If it really was him who targeted Ziyun's brother, then we'll have to beg him for forgiveness no matter the cost!"
