Chapter 8 (2/2)

Zhou’s bedroom and study were connected together, only separated by a thin door. Sitting in the study, he could clearly hear their conversation. Zhou Wenjing hesitated for a moment, then he decided to stay in the study.

Zhou Yunsheng’s hearing was far above ordinary people, naturally he heard the two’s footsteps, but he didn’t mind and sat on the single sofa seat near the bedside. He casually asked, “Father, are you sorry for me because you murdered my mother?”

Zhoufu suddenly opened his eyes, then he started coughing severely.

Zhou Wenang suppressed his shock, while helping his father pat his chest, he scolded, “Big Brother what are you saying? Mother committed suicide!”

“What qualifications do you have to call her mother? Are you her son?” Zhou Yunsheng was comfortably leaning against the back of the chair, overlapping his slender legs.

Zhou Wenang’s face completely distorted, the two eavesdropping also couldn’t help but increase their breathing. The pulse monitor suddenly issued a long beep, then it eventually stopped fluctuating. Their father died of fright. But no one in the room moved, they did not even glance in his direction. Since it came to this point, Zhou Wenang also gave up his camouflage. He slowly sat opposite Zhou Yun Sheng, pushed his hair back, revealing a face full of hostility.

“How did you know?”

“Your thumb has betrayed you.” Zhou Yunsheng sneered, “Your thumb has one less bone than normal, it’s short and really ugly. That’s an inherited dominant gene, but my mother and Zhou Hao’s hands are both normal, do I need to explain to you what that means?”

Zhou Wenang forcefully closed his hand, after a long time he let out a low laugh, “Even if you know, what does it matter? You can’t take what’s mine away, and Zhou is already mine. Oh, yes, you can take Yang Xi’s heritage back. You can also beg Yang Jia to deal with me, but unfortunately, you probably don’t know, Yang Group is currently contracted to build an undersea tunnel between Thousand Island City and Chengdu city. Zhou Group promised to inject a 2 billion investment into Yang Group, once Zhou Group divests, Yang Group is finished, thoroughly bankrupt.”

Zhou Wenang seemed to feel that his own words were very interesting, he laughed in merriment. How can he not feel happy when he was finally going to destroy Yang Group?

But Zhou Yunsheng’s response made him very disappointed. He sat still, waiting for him to finish laughing. Afterwards he asked, “Was it Zhou Hao who killed my mother?”

“You guess.” Zhou Wenang was smart enough not to confirm.

“These years I’ve been abroad, haven’t you been trying to kill me? Was Elsa’s poisonous cigarettes prepared for me?”

“What a pity.” Zhou Wenang ambiguously smiled. He would not let the other side catch him in case he was secretly recording his words.

Zhou Yunsheng also laughed, he went over and patted Zhou Wenang’s cheek. He said in a gentle tone, “Enjoy your last festival, my dear brother.” Then he pulled the door to open and walked away.

The two eavesdropping in the study were trying to digest the epic they just heard. Du Xu Lang thought of the death of Zhou’s mother, thought of how the two children almost had the same date of birth, and finally put the suspicious details together. So seamless a scam could be easily seen through, Sheng’s insight is really terrible. When did he find out? At what time? His father killed his mother, his brother is the enemy’s child- with what kind of mood did he live in till today?

No wonder he did not feel a little bit of sympathy for Zhou Hao, no wonder he changed his attitude toward Zhou Wenang. Du Xu Lang’s heartache was endless.

Zhou Wenjing’s face was also very ugly. He did not expect the person who guarded him all these years was his own real enemy. The goodwill, comfort, gifts … … all hypocritical. These years, he was like a fool juggled between Zhou Wenang’s hands, as for his father he did not even have to think about it, he was always dead to him.

He couldn’t wait to strangle Zhou Wenang, but his angry settled down when Zhou Yunsheng walked out of the room. The servants walked in and out, readying for the coming funeral.

“Your mother was not killed by my mother.” he said straightforwardly.

Zhou Yunsheng raised his eyebrows.

“So I don’t owe you anything.” When he said this, Zhou Wenjing had to admit that he was relieved. His view of Zhou Yunsheng had become very complex. More than ten years of accumulated hatred couldn’t be completely eliminated, but he also felt that he was very pitiable.

“What do you want to say?” Zhou Yunsheng patiently asked.

“I want to tell you- I will not get revenge against you, but I will not help you. You have to look after yourself in the future.” As Zhou Yunsheng was too low-key, Zhou Wenjing always thought that he was just a student without financial status. He, who was sitting on hundreds of millions, felt disdain for him.

He could never forgive Zhou Yunsheng’s bullying, but now because of pity he left him a horse. To him that was the greatest kindness, he couldn’t give more.

These were the words of the president of his own Group and Du Jia’s nephew. If he exposed his identity he felt that Zhou Yun Sheng would be jealous to the extreme. He even thought that his uncle came to Zhou home just to support him.

Zhou Yunsheng was momentarily speechless, he could walk away from Zhou Wenjing’s determined gaze.

“Isn’t he too conceited?! What was that expression and tone? Does he think I’m a stray dog, just ignoring me was a big charity!?” Zhou Yun Sheng grabbed Du Xu Lang’s tie forcefully that night.

Du Xu Lang quickly hugged his waist, sincerely apologized, “It’s my fault. I didn’t teach him well. Baby why don’t we continue this conversation in bed?”

Zhou Yunsheng, “…”

It seems that all the family members had already forgotten their father’s tragic death.
