"And after this time, that guy Zhong Tiancheng will definitely not dare to harass you anymore!"
Mu Xinghe looked at Mu Yao with a smile, a bit of pride in his eyes.
Hearing the name "Zhong Tiancheng", Mu Yao's eyes flashed with disgust again, and she told her younger brother Mu Xinghe word by word: "Don't mention this person's name in front of me again in the future."
Seeing his sister warning him so seriously, Mu Xinghe immediately knew that his sister was not joking with him, and quickly nodded in agreement: "Don't worry, sister, I will kick this name out of my mind from now on. I want to mention Zhong... I want to mention it." When I talk about this person, I just talk about that beast!”
"You guy..."
Mu Yao curled her lips helplessly because of her younger brother, and then looked at Su Chen worriedly: "Su Chen, do you really want to go to the Zhong family's banquet then?"
"Go, why don't you go?"
With a faint smile, Su Chen said disapprovingly: "The Zhong family has invited me so sincerely, so a little person like me has to give the Zhong family some face, right?"
Hearing Su Chen say that she was a "little person", Mu Yao frowned again.
"Don't take Zhong Fanzhi's words to heart. He did that on purpose..."
"Don't worry, I didn't take his words to heart." Su Chen couldn't help but dumbfounded when he saw Mu Yao caring about him so seriously.
He just said that deliberately to mock the Zhong family, but he didn't expect Mu Yao to take it seriously!
"Um."
Seeing that Su Chen was really not in a bad mood because of Zhong Fanzhi's words, Mu Yao smiled and nodded, then pushed away the chair and stood up.
"It's almost time. Let's go out for dinner. Today it's your choice, Su Chen..."
"Let Xinghe come, the restaurants he chose are all delicious." Su Chen looked at Mu Xinghe with a smile. Seeing that Mu Xinghe wanted to refuse, he continued: "What's more, Zhong Tiancheng is still in the hospital now, and he will definitely not be able to do it this time. I’ll bump into people I shouldn’t bump into again.”
"Forehead……"
Seeing Su Chen express his concerns directly, Mu Xinghe scratched his head in embarrassment.
Mu Yao couldn't help but smile again, and also looked at her brother who looked a little embarrassed: "Xinghe, since Su Chen said so, then you should do it."
"Okay, okay!"
Scratching his head helplessly, Mu Xinghe started to recommend restaurants to Su Chen and Mu Yao excitedly after being embarrassed for a few seconds.
On the other side, after Zhong Fanzhi left Wanze Group, he returned directly to the Zhong family residence to meet his father, Zhong Jiaguo.
Seeing his son back so soon, Zhong Jiaguo didn't seem too surprised.
Zhong Fanzhi also swept away his previous arrogance in the Wanze Group and looked at his father with respect: "Dad, Mu Yao declined my invitation as you expected. I have already agreed directly after her refusal as we agreed before. Invite her to this banquet hosted by our Zhong family."
"Um."
Nodding, Zhong Jiaguo didn't say much.
Seeing that his son had not left after telling the news, he continued: "Is there anything else you want to say?"
"Yes, there is one more thing."
With his eyebrows slightly furrowed, Zhong Fanzhi continued: "I also met the boy named Su Chen in Mu Yao's office."
"Huh?" The white eyebrows sank, and Zhong Jiaguo sneered: "It seems that the little girl from the Mu family is really close to that boy named Su Chen!"
"This is beyond my expectation..."
Seeing his father's obvious displeasure with Su Chen, Zhong Fanzhi continued: "Should we find a chance to get rid of that Su Chen? It was him who ruined Tian Cheng's business this time. If it hadn't been for him, Tian Cheng might have If it succeeds, this time the Mu family will have no choice but to marry into our Zhong family."
"And Tian Cheng's injury was also caused by that boy, and if I remember correctly, Tian Cheng owed him something because he lost to that boy before..."
When he said these words, Zhong Fanzhi felt ashamed for his son Zhong Tiancheng.
It was really embarrassing to have been stuck with a powerless boy for so many years. It even made him wonder how he could have such a stupid son!
Compared with that shrewd illegitimate son, Zhong Tiancheng seems too stupid!
But Zhong Tiancheng was still his son. Zhong Tiancheng being hurt by Su Chen was also an embarrassment to the Zhong family. He felt that Su Chen had to pay the price.
Zhong Jiaguo thought so too.
It's just that he doesn't want to focus on such trivial matters now.
"Let's talk about it after the banquet." He waved his hands and stared calmly at the lake. Looking at the fish that had been hooked, a chill flashed in Zhong Jiaguo's eyes: "Or wait until Mu Feng comes back and let him handle this matter."
Hearing that his father wanted to test his illegitimate son again, Zhong Fanzhi nodded lightly: "Everything depends on you, father."
"Well, go ahead."
Waving his hand to Zhong Fanzhi again, Zhong Jiaguo began to reel in the fishing line.
After looking at the fish that was about to be caught, Zhong Fanzhi bent down and turned around to leave.
After he left, Guo Jiaju, the old servant who was following Zhong Jiaguo, stepped forward and began to report the recent news he had received.
"Beishenghui failed and failed to bring Gu Qingshi to the north. It even aroused Gu Nantian's vigilance."
"Beishenghui has started to arrange manpower to the capital as planned, but the above means that we should not interfere with Beishenghui's affairs."
"Are you worried that the Northern Saint Society will fail?"
Zhong Jiaguo completely pulled the fish out of the lake, skillfully reeled in the line, and then slowly unhooked the struggling fish from the hook and threw it back into the lake.
Guo Jiaju had long been accustomed to his behavior, and continued without even taking a second look: "Beishenghui is just a chess piece that disrupts the capital. There is no need to invest too much in it."
"Well, is there anything else?"
Zhong Jiaguo asked back with a calm expression.
Guo Jiaju nodded and continued to report: "The Yao family is still investigating the poisoning, and the Yao family seems to have known about the curse. In addition to investigating the poisoning, they are also secretly investigating the curse. …”
"oh?"
A cold light flashed in his eyes, and Zhong Jiaguo sneered: "The Yao family is really capable, and they can actually discover the curse!"
"Currently we don't know who helped the Yao family in this matter, but we have blocked all sources of information. The Yao family can't find anything. It's just a useless effort!"
"Yes." Nodding with satisfaction, Zhong Jiaguo turned to look at the old servant: "Other than that, is there anything else?"
"Yes, there are two more things." Guo Jiaju nodded.
Knowing that Guo Jiaju still had two things left unsaid, Zhong Jiaguo couldn't help but look a little surprised: "A lot of things have happened recently!"
