When they reached the underground parking lot, Jiang Tong and Zhou Anguo got into the back seat of the same car without any communication. They both closed the doors on both sides. This caused Zhou Jingyun, who wanted to pull Jiang Tong into his car, and Zhou Mingfei, who wanted to sit in the same car with his father, to stop with strange expressions. The two of them walked to the side.
“What’s going on?” Zhou Jingyun asked in a low voice.

“How would I know…” Zhou Mingfei was also dumbfounded. He was also very curious about what was going on right now, okay?
“Then let’s go eat first.” Zhou Jingyun frowned and then walked to his car.
More than twenty minutes later, the group arrived at West Guo Club. This was a high-end private club with a membership system. It had only been open for a few years, and the location was quite remote. It was opened in an alley and was not open to the public. It was a very confidential and private place. Only a fixed number of guests were allowed to come for a meal every day, and they had to make a reservation in advance. Zhou Mingfei did not need to make a reservation, because he was one of the owners of West Guo Club.
In the private room on the top floor of West Guo Club, after everyone had taken their seats, Zhou Mingfei called the manager and whispered a few words to him. He did not order any food when he spoke to the manager as he had already made a call to arrange it on the way here. He called the manager over just to give him some advice. A private kitchen made the dishes for this room, and it was very special. But in essence, this place was not a place to eat delicious food, but an occasion to socialize and discuss matters. But now, no one was talking, and the atmosphere was very strange.
Zhou Anguo seemed to have something on his mind. He would glance at Jiang Tong from time to time, and then he would stare at the table in a daze. No one knew what he was thinking. Zhou Jingyun gestured at Zhou Mingfei with his eyes.
“Dad, have some tea.” Zhou Mingfei stood up, picked up the teapot, and poured tea for Zhou Anguo. Then he poured tea for Jiang Tong and Zhou Jingyun. He said, “It’ll take a while to serve the dishes. Have some tea first.”
Zhou Anguo glanced at Zhou Mingfei. He held the teacup with his hand but didn’t drink it. After Zhou Mingfei poured the tea, he sat down and asked naturally, “Dad, what did you and Sister-in-law talk about?”

“Shush. Don’t ask about things you shouldn’t ask.” Zhou Anguo glanced at Zhou Mingfei and didn’t want to say anything more.
“What’s there that can’t be said?” Zhou Jingyun immediately answered from the side, as if he was very unhappy with Zhou Anguo’s secrecy. He put his hand on the back of Jiang Tong’s chair, tilted his head, and looked at Jiang Tong. Then, he asked, “Babe, if he doesn’t say it, you say it. Tell me what you guys talked about.”
Zhou Jingyun and Zhou Mingfei had already discussed it in the car. Both of them understood that they wouldn’t be able to get anything out of Jiang Tong or Zhou Anguo if they asked them privately. Zhou Jingyun wouldn’t ask Zhou Anguo, because he didn’t have a good relationship with Zhou Anguo. It was very likely that they would quarrel if he asked the wrong question. If he asked Jiang Tong, Jiang Tong would probably throw him a ‘Take a guess’. Zhou Mingfei on the other hand, wouldn’t dare to ask Zhou Anguo. Even if he asked, he would only ask once. If Zhou Anguo did not say anything after that, he would not dare to continue asking. Therefore, the two of them teamed up and asked questions one after another at the dinner table. Because Jiang Tong and Zhou Anguo were both present, unless the two of them had discussed beforehand, someone had to say something.
“You are still so curious.” Jiang Tong smiled at Zhou Jingyun. Her eyes were filled with an expression Zhou Jingyun was familiar with. Sure enough, the next second, Jiang Tong replied, “Why don’t you take a guess?”
Zhou Jingyun instantly understood! Zhou Mingfei also understood! Jiang Tong and Zhou Anguo had really discussed it. The two of them didn’t say anything! Actually… Jiang Tong and Zhou Anguo didn’t really discuss it beforehand. It was just that at the end of the conversation, Zhou Anguo once asked Jiang Tong, “Does Zhou Jingyun know about the things you’re talking about?”
Jiang Tong’s answer was, “No, and he doesn’t need to know.” After that, she didn’t say anything more, but Zhou Anguo already understood. They didn’t explicitly mention anything, but both of them understood very well what they were talking about. The things that Jiang Tong said involved too many parties, and Zhou Anguo needed to verify the authenticity of the things that Jiang Tong said. These things didn’t need to be known to Zhou Jingyun and Zhou Mingfei. Even if Zhou Anguo finally proved that what Jiang Tong said was true, the Zhou family still needed a certain amount of time to plan. Before they prepared to make a big move, there was no need to tell these things to Zhou Jingyun and Zhou Mingfei. This could also be considered a form of protection for the two of them.
After all, Zhou Jingyun and Zhou Mingfei were the third-generation juniors of the Zhou family. It was not yet time for them to come into contact with the core power of the Zhou family. Therefore, unless they needed to be immediately involved in it, otherwise, there was no need to let them know immediately about these important matters that affected the family. The less they knew, the better.
