Zhou
Translated by Seafall (Cf411)
The day after he finished talking with Wen Huaan, Zheng Jue called Zhou Chengan on the phone. He leaked some of the words which Wen Huaan had said, and so, Zhou Chengan’s tone immediately changed.
“Mr. Zheng, I don’t know where you heard the news, but I can tell you clearly that I am responsible for the cooperation with you this time. Although my cousin’s status in the company is not low, this project is not under his control. In any case, the situation you mentioned will not occur. Our Zhou family has a large number of personnel, but we still know that we must abide by the spirit of the contract,” Zhou Chengan’s tone was unusually formal and calm.
Zheng Jue couldn’t help but smile when he heard this, “Young Master Zhou, I naturally believe in you. To be honest, in the Zhou family, I have only contacted you, and I don’t even recognize others even if they come.”
After Zhou Chengan heard this, his tone calmed down, and after he comforted Zheng Jue a few more words, he hung up the phone hurriedly.
Zheng Jue raised his eyebrows. The thorn was finally planted. Since Zhou Chengan was a smart man, it’s only a matter of time before he would find out.
**
Zhou Chengan sat in the office with a dark face, staring at the phone that was hung up for a long time. At this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open, and a frivolous man walked in. Zhou Chengan frowned slightly, “Brother, is there something wrong?”
It turned out that this person was Zhou Chengan’s cousin, Zhou Chengyuan.
“Can’t I come even when I’m okay?” Zhou Chengyuan glanced at Zhou Chengan and sarcastically said, “There is a dinner party at home tonight. Grandpa asked me to inform you that you must go back, and this time, don’t use work to excuse yourself.”
Zhou Chengan pursed his lips and clenched his fists slightly, “I see.” There was a hint of forbearance in his tone.
Zhou Chengyuan looked at him like this, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became more and more flamboyant, “What’s the use of you being serious? Grandpa doesn’t like you. Even if you do your best for the company, you are just a general manager. Chengan, my brother, today, I would like to persuade you. Don’t be so stubborn. Just go home and wait for the dividends. If you fight with me, you will still lose anyway!”
Hearing this, Zhou Chengan’s expression suddenly loosened up. Against such an idiot, he would feel sorry for himself if he didn’t win.
“Big brother, I don’t understand what you are saying. The Zhou family is the property of the entire Zhou family. As a child of the Zhou family, I am naturally obliged to contribute to the Zhou family. Big brother, you have more equity than me, so you should be more attentive than me. You’re always making trouble outside, so that makes grandpa’s face not good-looking either.”
Watching Zhou Chengan compete with himself, Zhou Chengyuan’s face suddenly became ugly, and just as he was about to say something, Zhou Chengan’s secretary knocked on the door and walked in. In the end, Zhou Chengyuan didn’t want to be humiliated in front of outsiders, so he stared at Zhou Chengan with a gloomy gaze, then turned away and left.
Seeing Zhou Chengyuan leave, Zhou Chengan’s secretary breathed a sigh of relief, “Second Young Master, the Eldest Young Master is making trouble again, it’s really hard for you.”
This secretary is Zhou Chengan’s confidant, so he speaks to him very casually. Zhou Chengan closed his eyes slightly and then spoke with a sarcastic smile on his face, “Now, he can only find a sense of superiority in front of the old man. Don’t worry about it.”
The secretary smiled, “That’s true. The young and old masters have not come to the company for so long. Many things in the company were already different from before. I don’t know how they will react when they see you in the future.”
Zhou Chengxin sneered in relief. Since he already left, don’t even think about him coming back.
Thinking of this, Zhou Chengan suddenly remembered Zheng Jue’s previous phone call and felt a little uneasy in his heart, then said, “You go and check it out who did Mr. Zheng meet after he separated from us yesterday. By the way, check Lin Ai’s details carefully. I heard that she and Mr. Zheng’s ex-girlfriend are sisters. Let’s see how their relationship is.”
The secretary was stunned for a moment and then smiled, “The relationship between the Second Young Master and Mr. Zheng is so good. Why do you still want to check these?”
Zhou Chengan listened but then just smiled self-deprecatingly, “I have a good relationship with him? Yes, it’s good. However, Zheng Jue is not an ordinary person. Even if I have been cooperating with him for a long time. I haven’t been able to see through him. Therefore, you need to check it carefully, I always think he has something to say.”
The secretary responded.

Zhou Chengan worked that day until five o’clock in the evening before leaving the company. Zhou’s family banquet always started at seven o’clock. From the company to Zhou’s mansion, it took at least one hour to drive, but since it was currently the evening rush hour, it took him two hours to arrive.
In fact, Zhou Chengan didn’t have to be in such a hurry. He can leave the company early, but as long as he thinks of that home, he would rather stay in the company.
It’s just that the current Zhou Chengan has not completely grasped the Zhou family, so although he is disgusted in his heart, he couldn’t easily go against the wishes of the old man Zhou. He can only play a little ball on the side and disgust them.
As soon as Zhou Chengan returned to the mansion, a nanny came out to greet him. Seeing him like this, the nanny said while a little distressed, “Second Young Master, why have you lost so much weight? I made a good soup this time. You must drink more.”
The nanny watched Zhou Chengan grow up, so Zhou Chengan was willing to be amiable to her, “I’ve been thinking about nanny Wei’s soup these days, so I must drink more this time.”
Nanny Wei was coaxed by him that she smiled, “Alright, alright. I’ll serve you another bowl later.”
As soon as nanny Wei finished saying this, a mocking voice came, “Nanny Wei, you are very kind. It‘s also good to see who you are here for. Zhou Chengan will not be able to live in the ancestral house for so long as grandfather’s words won’t change. I’m afraid that all the servants have long forgotten you.” It was the gloomy Zhou Chengyuan who spoke.
Nanny Wei’s smile couldn’t help but froze before she said embarrassingly, “Second Young Master is busy with work, I know it.”
Zhou Chengyuan looked at nanny Wei’s discomfort and felt actually very proud of himself. He hated to see these servants getting closer to Zhou Chengan than him as if he was the young master of the entire Zhou family.
Zhou Chengyuan wanted to take advantage of the victory, but Zhou Chengan said calmly, “Nanny Wei, go and do your work first. Brother and I have something to deal with.”
When nanny Wei heard this, she left the entrance impatiently, then walked to the living room and looked back at Zhou Chengan again, with a trace of unease in her eyes. But as Zhou Cheng smiled at her reassuringly, nanny Wei left quickly.
Watching the two of them interact, Zhou Chengyuan’s face became more and more gloomy, “I didn’t even know that you have fallen to the point of having a relationship with your servants. Zhou Chengan, you are really promising.”
Zhou Chengan ignored his provocation at all and just slightly curled up the corners of his mouth as he turned around and entered the living room. Zhou Chengyuan’s face turned blue with anger, but thinking about what would happen today, he didn’t dare to make a big deal, so he had to follow Zhou Chengan’s footsteps into the living room.
As soon as Zhou Chengan entered the living room, he saw a circle of people in the room. The one sitting in the center was an old man who thought he was in his 70s. His hair and beard were all white, but his spirit was still very energetic. He was talking to the people sitting around him with a smile, however, his expression suddenly sank, when he saw Zhou Chengan come in, “Chengan, why did you come back so late today? Didn’t your brother inform you?”
He even started to attack him as soon as he came in.
Zhou Chengan still had a smile on his face, as if he didn’t notice the sympathetic eyes of the people around him, and said warmly, “Brother told me, but the company is busy with traffic jams on the road, so I came back late, sorry. Sorry, grandpa.”
It turned out that the old man was Zhou Mingrui, Zhou Chengan’s grandfather.
Zhou Mingrui looked at his grandson with a serious look, with a hint of unhappiness in his eyes. He was getting old and always hoped that his children and grandchildren would be harmonious. However, Zhou Chengan had a cold personality and had a very poor relationship with his father. He tried to reconcile them thrice, but they were all unsuccessful. Besides that, Zhou Chengan didn’t even listen to him at work, so he was a little dissatisfied with Zhou Chengan.
“Okay, sit down. Your father went to Paris on a business trip, and he can’t come back today. When your father comes back, you will toast him again,” Although the old man Zhou’s tone was casual, his eyes kept following Zhou Chengan’s reaction.
On the outside, Zhou Chengan’s expression looked calm, but his hands were already clenched tightly, and the anger in his heart was about to burst out. If he was asked whom he hated the most in this world, then his father would definitely be in the first place. For his other woman, he killed his mother and also almost killed him. These accounts will never be forgotten by Zhou Chengan for the rest of his life.
“Yes, grandpa,” Zhou Chengan nodded slightly, hiding the ruthlessness in his eyes.
Old man Zhou looked at his docile appearance and became very satisfied. He nodded with a smile, “Well, you are fine like this. You will get along well with your father in the future.”
Zhou Chengan didn’t speak, but he was sneering in his heart. Getting along with him, if that could make his mother come back to life again, then he would naturally get along with him. Unfortunately, it was too late. Now he is still living in the shadow of the old man Zhou, so naturally, he has to bow his head, but wait until the future… in the future…
Zhou Chengan’s eyes were hot.
Seeing that the relationship between old man Zhou and Zhou Chengan had eased, Zhou Chengyuan was the first who couldn’t sit still. He quickly stepped forward and looked into old man Zhou’s eyes, and then gave Zhou Chengan a warning look. Zhou Chengan laughed to himself and said no more, then sat aside.
This family banquet ended in Zhou Chengyuan’s deliberate flattery and Zhou Chengan’s low-key introversion. Several of Zhou Chengan’s aunts wanted to have a relationship with Zhou Chengan. Although Zhou’s family is nominally under the control of old man Zhou, the county magistrate is not as good as the current one. Despite that, as the general manager, Zhou Chengan still has a lot of power. If they want to get some benefits, then they naturally have to have a good relationship with Zhou Chengan.
However, Zhou Chengan didn’t want to be too high-profile here, so he quietly pushed it over. These people were also very understanding as they looked at Zhou Chengan who took care of him, so they didn’t ask any more questions.
Waiting until the family banquet was over, Zhou Chengan seemed to have finished a battle. He really didn’t want to stay here for a quarter of an hour, and he insisted on leaving regardless of old man Zhou’s retention. While the angry old man Zhou’s face turned black, Zhou Chengyuan had a look of schadenfreude.
Zhou Chengan left the Zhou family mansion and got into the car that the secretary drove to pick him up. He just breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the secretary say, “Young Master Zhou, I have already checked it out. After seeing you at that time, Mr. Zheng went to the Wen’s, and then went back to his own apartment, never seeing anyone again.”
Zhou Chengan was stunned for a moment and then his face suddenly sank.

Sorry, grandpa.It turned out that the old man was Zhou Mingrui, Zhou Chengan's grandfather.Zhou Mingrui looked at his grandson with a serious look, with a hint of unhappiness in his eyes. He was getting old and always hoped that his children and grandchildren would be harmonious. However, Zhou Chengan had a cold personality and had a very poor relationship with his father. He tried to reconcile them thrice, but they were all unsuccessful. Besides that, Zhou Chengan didn't even listen to him at work, so he was a little dissatisfied with Zhou Chengan.Okay, sit down. Your father went to Paris on a business trip, and he can't come back today. When your father comes back, you will toast him again, Although the old man Zhou's tone was casual, his eyes kept following Zhou Chengan's reaction.On the outside, Zhou Chengan's expression looked calm, but his hands were already clenched tightly, and the anger in his heart was about to burst out. If he was asked whom he hated the most in this world, then his father would definitely be in the first place. For his other woman, he killed his mother and also almost killed him. These accounts will never be forgotten by Zhou Chengan for the rest of his life.Yes, grandpa, Zhou Chengan nodded slightly, hiding the ruthlessness in his eyes.Old man Zhou looked at his docile appearance and became very satisfied. He nodded with a smile, Well, you are fine like this. You will get along well with your father in the future.Zhou Chengan didn't speak, but he was sneering in his heart. Getting along with him, if that could make his mother come back to life again, then he would naturally get along with him. Unfortunately, it was too late. Now he is still living in the shadow of the old man Zhou, so naturally, he has to bow his head, but wait until the future in the futureZhou Chengan's eyes were hot.Seeing that the relationship between old man Zhou and Zhou Chengan had eased, Zhou Chengyuan was the first who couldn't sit still. He quickly stepped forward and looked into old man Zhou's eyes, and then gave Zhou Chengan a warning look. Zhou Chengan laughed to himself and said no more, then sat aside.This family banquet ended in Zhou Chengyuan's deliberate flattery and Zhou Chengan's low-key introversion. Several of Zhou Chengan's aunts wanted to have a relationship with Zhou Chengan. Although Zhou's family is nominally under the control of old man Zhou, the county magistrate is not as good as the current one. Despite that, as the general manager, Zhou Chengan still has a lot of power. If they want to get some benefits, then they naturally have to have a good relationship with Zhou Chengan.However, Zhou Chengan didn't want to be too high-profile here, so he quietly pushed it over. These people were also very understanding as they looked at Zhou Chengan who took care of him, so they didn't ask any more questions.Waiting until the family banquet was over, Zhou Chengan seemed to have finished a battle. He really didn't want to stay here for a quarter of an hour, and he insisted on leaving regardless of old man Zhou's retention. While the angry old man Zhou's face turned black, Zhou Chengyuan had a look of schadenfreude.Zhou Chengan left the Zhou family mansion and got into the car that the secretary drove to pick him up. He just breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the secretary say, Young Master Zhou, I have already checked it out. After seeing you at that time, Mr. Zheng went to the Wen's, and then went back to his own apartment, never seeing anyone again.Zhou Chengan was stunned for a moment and then his face suddenly sank.*The author has something to say:Today, the teacher organized us to play games, so we are all tired when we came back.
