Chapter 503: Caring & Incomprehensible
Chapter 503: Caring & Incomprehensible
"Why did the three of them unite to criticize me, but you didn't speak up for me? It's inappropriate for three grown men to attack me!" Huo Yan's voice was a little louder.
Zhuang Qianyao sneered:
"Look, beauty is the root of trouble. She's trying to sow discord between us brothers again..."
"Fourth!"
Zhuang Zhoucheng spoke up, "Were my words not clear enough?"
"Brother, look at the woman you chose..."
Zhuang Qianyao pushed Shi Zhenlin away and suddenly stood up to speak, but when people not far away looked over, he swallowed his words.
Zhuang Zhoucheng pulled Huo Yan and said in a low voice:
"Calm down, these brothers are just joking with you, don't take it seriously, okay?"
Huo Yan pushed Zhuang Zhoucheng away, snorted and said:
"The man I want doesn't need to be powerful or capable, but at least he should help me when I'm bullied! But you didn't, Zhuang Zhoucheng."
Zhuang Zhoucheng's brows knitted together unnaturally. Was she being bullied?
This little bastard...
"Don't be unreasonable, be obedient, everyone is watching us. You are the hostess here, you should show the grace of a host, how can you get angry with the guests?" Zhuang Zhoucheng said helplessly.
Some conceptual issues are not even a little bit off.
Zhuang Zhoucheng said hello to his brothers and walked away with Huo Yan.
Of course, he would not talk about his woman in front of outsiders. Talking about his woman, wouldn't that be slapping himself in the face?
Huo Yan was unhappy, and Zhuang Zhoucheng pushed her to a deserted place. Huo Yan swayed to the side and looked at Zhuang Zhoucheng with a sullen face.
Zhuang Zhoucheng had no choice but to approach her, raised his hand and gently stroked her hair, saying:
"Look at you. You're in a bad mood and you take your anger out on everyone. Have the brothers offended you? You're full of thorns. You push back at everyone who mentions something. Don't let your emotions affect others. If you have any complaints, tell me privately, okay?"
So she is petty and has no sense of propriety. She follows her own temper at any time and in any situation.
It’s okay to be with him, but if I’m not with him, how many people will I offend?
"Stop lecturing me all the time, okay? They were the ones who criticized me first, and you didn't even speak up for me!"
What Huo Yan remembered was that when Zhuang Qianyao talked about her, Zhuang Zhoucheng didn't say a word.
She is a petty person to begin with, so it would be strange if she didn't mind.
Zhuang Zhoucheng had nothing to say. It was just a small matter, and if he took it seriously, he would lose face.
"Okay, okay, they are wrong. They shouldn't have said that to you, okay? You are the protagonist today, and they are here for us. You have been hiding for a whole day, and now you show up at night. As soon as you come out, you start to argue with the brothers. This is not appropriate." Zhuang Zhoucheng gave in.
"You're still talking about me." Huo Yan turned to the side.
Zhuang Zhoucheng was silent, unable to communicate, and he had to face this problem.
What Huo Yan considers to be good or bad is superficial.
What she can feel is only what exists on the surface. She won't know anything unless she understands it.
She would not think about the intention behind his restraints on her, and she was also very stubborn. Whatever she decided at the beginning was the fact.
He kept her around just for fun, without any real feelings. No matter how good he was to her, this idea was still deeply rooted in her mind.
Zhuang Zhoucheng felt helpless. He raised his hand and then lowered it again.
"Okay, I won't talk about you anymore."
Zhuang Zhoucheng looked at her and pulled her hand.
Huo Yan dodged.
At this moment, the little girl on the island who gave her chocolate ran over and shouted:
"Sister Yanyan, Sister Yanyan..."
Huo Yan turned around and looked over. Zhuang Zhoucheng smiled:
"Go play and eat something."
Huo Yan glanced at Zhuang Zhoucheng and left.
Zhuang Zhoucheng looked at Huo Yan and saw her and the little girl picking up food with plates, then he turned back.
There's no way, who made her so much younger than him?
He would have to get her to come.
When Huo Yan came out, Zhuang Zhoucheng stopped talking seriously with his brothers and kept looking around the room for her.
I would occasionally respond to the topic, but more often than not, I would just ignore it.
Except Zhuang Zhoucheng, the other three brothers are currently single, so they talk most about projects.
The recent release of the Hurun Global Rich List has become quite the buzz in the business world. While outsiders may only glance at it, the wealthy individuals on the list are somewhat resentful.
"The Asian rankings are wrong. Even the ones from Country Z are inflated. The oil tycoon from Hebei with a net worth of 50 billion yuan isn't even on the list. I really don't know what that research institute is for. There are at least seven or eight such hidden billionaires in China, and surprisingly, not a single one is on the list."
"That's not the case. According to incomplete statistics, the Hurun Research Institute is not the most authoritative. It's understandable that they don't have complete statistics." Qin Chen smiled.
Shi Zhenlin's peach blossom eyes moved, "That's right..."
Even among the four great families of Beijing present here, their financial resources are terrifying, not to mention the entire wealthy circle of Beijing.
There are many hidden wealthy people who own assets worth tens of billions. The Qi family, the first consortium in Beijing, is not to be underestimated. Even the personal assets of "Black Prince" Qi Wenshan can be compared with those of the wealthy people on the list. You can imagine how strong the financial resources behind the "Knight" consortium are.
While the brothers were discussing this topic, Zhuang Zhoucheng turned his gaze away again, his eyes slightly gloomy.
Shi Zhenlin shouted:
"Big brother?"
Zhuang Zhoucheng stood up and said:
"Excuse me, please continue."
His young wife ate two ice cream snowballs in a row and was still waiting for the next one. She shouldn't have taken out the ice cream bucket and eaten without restraint.
The people behind him were stunned for a moment, Shi Zhenlin smiled and continued chatting.
Huo Yan took the rum ice cream ball handed to him by the pastry chef, but it was snatched away by Zhuang Zhoucheng the next moment.
"That's enough. My stomach can't handle eating too much."
Zhuang Zhoucheng's voice was a little harsh, as he didn't want to give her a chance to resist.
The delicate little girl on the side was about to reach out to take her, but when she heard Zhuang Zhoucheng's words, she quickly shrank back and looked at Huo Yan.
"Sister Yanyan..."
Hesitantly, no way, if you are not allowed to eat the food, then why did you make it?
Huo Yan looked at Zhuang Zhoucheng. At other times, she would have retreated, and at most she would have been unhappy in her heart. But today, wasn't her little sister here? Wasn't he being disrespectful to her?
"Ignore him, I also want a rum one. Give me one." Huo Yan turned sideways and said to the pastry chef.
The pastry chef was in a dilemma and looked at Zhuang Zhoucheng:
"Mr. Zhou?"
Huo Yan's face fell, and he suddenly turned around and pushed Zhuang Zhoucheng:
"You're always like this. Didn't you say you wouldn't care about me?"
He wants face, but she doesn't?
I'm so angry!
"No more eating, let's go to the beach.
Huo Yan glared at Zhuang Zhoucheng and pulled Jiaojiao out.
