Zhou Hengfeng looked at the 200,000 yuan transfer record on Zhou Wei’s phone and was so angry that his eyes rolled back. He almost fainted like Old Master Zhou.
Father Zhou and Mother Zhou were usually opinionated. At critical moments, they were even less likely to be of use.
The pillar of the house, Old Master Zhou, was still in a coma. The servants had helped carry him to the sofa and were massaging him. He hadn’t woken up yet…
Seeing that the house was in chaos, Zhou Hengfeng couldn’t count on anyone. He could only suppress his anger and quickly investigate the girl’s background.
After some investigation, he received a huge scare.
The girl was actually related to a friend of his.
He frowned and pinched the bridge of his nose. He couldn’t care less and picked up his jacket resting on the sofa anxiously. He said to Father Zhou and Mother Zhou in a hurry, “I’m going out for a while. Wait for me at
home and take care of Dad. Call me when he wakes up.”
Mother Zhou had already been frightened out of her wits by the police taking Zhou Wei away. She couldn’t come up with a solution. Hearing this, she looked up in a panic. “Hengfeng, where are you going? Xiao Wei…”
“| know.” Although Zhou Hengfeng was so angry by what Zhou Wei had done that he wished he could cut ties with her, she was, after all, a member of their Zhou family. She was the most promising one among the
younger generation. He couldn’t possibly say that he didn’t care. However, when he thought of what Zhou Wei had done, his face turned green. His face darkened, and he did not have a good expression as he said to
Mother Zhou, “I’m going out because of her.”
“Xiao Wei, she…” Father Zhou placed a hot towel on Old Master Zhou’s forehead and took the time to walk over. He looked at him with an anxious and ashamed expression.
His brother and sister-in-law looked straight at him as if he was the only life-saving straw in the house. Zhou Hengfeng let out a shaky breath and his expression softened a little. “I don’t know yet. I’m going to the Jiang
family to ask Old Master Jiang first.”
The police officer who had come to take Zhou Wei away had told them very clearly before he left. The outcome of Zhou Wei’s matter depended on the girl’s attitude!
He had just investigated and realized that the girl was actually the granddaughter Old Master Jiang had been looking for. A year ago, Old Master Jiang had specially made a trip to Rao City and even transferred her to
Rao City’s First High School.
As for why she didn’t acknowledge her roots and ancestors, he didn’t know the reason either. But for Zhou Wei, he could only make a trip to the Jiang residence!
“Wait for my news. I’ll call you if I learn anything.” Zhou Hengfeng didn’t dare to delay. With that, he grabbed his jacket, picked up his car key, and hurried out.
At the Jiang residence.
The family had just finished lunch when a servant brought over a pot of brewed tea. Each of them took a cup and poured a cup for everyone.
Jiang Zongnan was chatting with Old Master Jiang about all the major and minor things that had happened in Beijing recently.
Old Master Jiang closed his eyes and held the blue and white porcelain teacup with both hands. He leaned back in the wheelchair and listened casually.
His thin face had signs of aging. He was very scholarly. Even though he was old, one could still see the aura from when he was young.
He was a big character!
Jiang Xianrou and Tang Wanru each had a cup of tea in front of them. Tang Wanru was fine as she could control her temper. From time to time, she would pick up the cup and take a sip. Her posture was elegant, the
typical demeanor of a wealthy woman who had lived a pampered life in Beijing..
