Chapter 346 - Bullying (1/2)

After the call with his son, Butler Zhou Min returned to Xiong Zhi's side. The Young Miss was very busy associating with people of high society.

It was almost four years ago, when Butler Zhou Min first witnessed his Young Miss talked more than one sentence in one breath.

At that time, the Young Miss said that she wanted to build her own company.

Now, who would have thought that she would eventually soften Master Xiong's heart and choose her as his heir?

The Young Miss grew a lot in these past two years. She showed her capability as she handled various businesses assigned to her under the Xiong Empire. In one year, the projects she handled grew in worth. Now, two years later, many of the shareholders and board of directors were at awe for the heiress.

Seeing the Young Miss today, talking to the influential people of the society, she did not lose her temperament one bit. Those who initially came with an air of superiority of a senior towards a junior eventually lost their arrogance as they interacted with her. She was able to talk to these experienced old fritters as if they were equals. And the weaker ones, she was even able to intimidate them.

Butler Zhou Min nodded approvingly.

Long ago, he thought that he would never see the meek Young Miss become sociable with other people in the high society. He always feel moved every time he saw this spectacle.

Young Miss has grown up!

She really transformed in these two years. No wonder his capable son came to like the Young Miss.

'...'

Eh?

Butler Zhou Min was suddenly stunned. Just now, he imagined in his mind the two standing together like an affectionate couple.

And he was not against it. The previous feeling of rejection seemed to have faded.

Zhou Min paused for a few second and then scratched his nose.

...Since the Young Miss was such an amazing woman, who could possibly match with her? Could it really be his son?

While Zhou Min fell in his thoughts, Xiong Zhi suddenly turned to him.

”Head Butler Zhou.”

”Yes?”

”Can you please tend to that table?”

Zhou Min followed Xiong Zhi's gaze. It was the table of the Lu's representative.

He blinked. Ah?

The two were close friends, but how come the other looked here like he was an abandoned puppy being punished by his master to stand still at one side, not allowed to come close?

He wondered, but immediately shook the ridiculous thought off. Throughout the event, he stayed at the Lu's table to entertain them.

The second young master Lu Yin Ze was naturally surrounded by people. But from time to time, he would look at Xiong Zhi's way with melancholic eyes.

After noticing this a few more times, Butler Zhou Min silently raised his guard.

'This young man... don't tell me, he covets my daughter-in-law?!'

He looked at his Young Miss, whom he unconsciously labeled as 'daughter-in-law'. The Young Miss was occupied with tending to other guests.

Fuuu. What a relief. It seemed that the Young Miss was not interested in this pretty boy.

Zhou Min secretly studied his son's rival. The young man was handsome, no, beautiful, with a unique and angelic appearance, rather exotic in the oriental country with his hair and eyes. Would his son win in terms of appearance?

Zhou Min inadvertently touched his face. His genes was good, so naturally his son would not lose! His son's appearance has earned him many admirers lined up enough to encircle the Great Wall when he was still attending school.

En. Not to mention, the Young Miss also seemed to think positively about his son.

Zhou Min lit up a candle for this rival and secretly rooted for his son.

Capture the Young Miss's heart today!

(EN: lighting up a candle, I think it was used to mourn for dead souls. This idiom is apparently used when you are confident that a person will definitely fail at what he was doing, and you are mourning for him in advance...)

As if heavens heard his prayer, he received a text message.
