C169 She Didn't Have Good Intentions
At the same time, in the Nanmu Club, the butler of the Zhou family also hurried over to look for Zhou Xueyu.
Zhou Xueyu, who was sorting out the last things in the club and preparing to open the shop, frowned slightly when she saw the butler. Now, she had no good impression of the people of the Zhou family.
"Big miss, I've finally found you. You should follow me back to the Zhou family." The old butler walked up to Zhou Xueyu and said.
Zhou Xueyu shook her head and rejected him, "I won't go back to the Zhou family. If there's anything, you should go find someone else."
The butler immediately tried to persuade Zhou Xueyu, "Eldest Miss, I know that the family head did not do well in the funeral that day, but you are after all a member of the Zhou family. You have the blood of the Zhou family flowing in your veins. You can't never return to the Zhou family forever."
Zhou Xueyu was unmoved by the butler's persuasion, "They have never treated me as a member of the Zhou family. Why should I treat them as family?"
"I will not return to the Zhou family. If you have anything to say, you can tell me now. If not, please go back."
The butler did not expect Zhou Xueyu to be so determined. Immediately, he became anxious. The family head had given him an order to invite Zhou Xueyu back.
At this time, the butler suddenly said to Zhou Xueyu, "Eldest Miss, actually, I came to find you this time because of the old master."
"About my grandfather? What is it?" Zhou Xueyu heard that the matter was related to her grandfather and immediately looked straight at him and anxiously asked the butler.
The butler sighed and said," Actually, the old master also knows that you and Miss Zhou Qian will definitely not be in a good situation at home after he left, so the old master left something for you. "
"But he didn't dare to keep this thing at home, so he left it with an old friend of the Zhao family. He secretly told me about it and told me that if there is a day like this, I will take you to get it."
Zhou Xueyu had a trace of hesitation on her face. Why would her grandfather leave something in the Zhao family? Even if he wanted to keep it, he should have given it to her and Qian.
Seeing Zhou Xueyu start to hesitate, the Guan family continued to persuade her, "Eldest Miss, this is the last wish of the old master when he was alive. It should be very important."
"Otherwise, I wouldn't have spent so much effort to leave it to you. Why don't you come with me to take a look?"
Hearing the butler say so, Zhou Xueyu nodded and agreed. "Alright, I'll go with you to the Zhao family to take a look."
As she spoke, Zhou Xueyu instructed her subordinates to handle the matters of the clubhouse. Then, she followed the butler to the Zhao family to retrieve the things.
Chen Junlin and Bai Shu arrived at the Wang family. They were from a big family in the provincial capital. The manor and villa of the Wang family were incomparably imposing. Especially after entering the main hall, the decoration was incomparably elegant.
People who didn't know would think that this place was a big theater, an art exhibition, and other places. They couldn't imagine that such a luxurious and grand hall would be a private property.
As soon as the two of them entered the hall, the head of the Wang family, Wang Qi, welcomed them with Wang Dunglai. "Good, good, good. Mr. Chen is really young and promising. I have long heard of Mr. Chen's great name and have never seen him before. It is truly a blessing to meet him today."
Chen Junlin felt that Wang Qi's words were too hypocritical. He just smiled casually and said, "You are too polite, Wang family's patriarch."
Wang Qi did not care about Chen Junlin's cold attitude. He still invited Chen Junlin warmly. "Mr. Chen, how about we take a seat in the dining room?"
"Okay." Chen Junlin followed Wang Qi to the dining room.
Wang Qi clapped his hands. Immediately, a dozen servants dressed in maid attire walked in one after another. Delicious dishes were placed on the table.
It was obvious that Wang Qi had put in a lot of effort for this meal. Putting aside the taste of the food, these dishes on the table made one's appetite stir. It was nothing more than a national feast.
When all the dishes were served, Wang Qi waved his hand again and all the servants left the restaurant.
Wang Qi picked up a bottle of wine and poured it for Chen Junlin. Then, he raised his wine glass and said to Chen Junlin, "Mr. Chen, I think the butler must have asked you to come here today as well. He came here to apologize to you."
"I spoiled this kid of mine. He doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth and offended Mr. Chen. I hope Mr. Chen won't argue with him."
Chen Junlin did not drink the wine in front of him. He just nodded and said, "Alright, I accept your apology."
"However, the Wang family Master tried so hard to invite me here. I think it was not just to apologize. If there is anything, just say it. If there is nothing else, I should leave after you apologize."
The corner of Wang Qi's mouth twitched slightly. There was a trace of anger in his heart. He was the master of the Wang family, and he had already apologized to Chen Junlin with such respect. However, this young man still had a lofty and arrogant attitude.
Sure enough, this young man was too arrogant. Otherwise, he wouldn't have attracted the joint efforts of the Wang family, Zhao family, and Zhou family to deal with him.
Wang Qi thought that if Chen Junlin died this time, it would be his own fault.
However, Wang Qi still had a smile on his face. He put down his wine cup and said with a smile, "Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from Mr. Chen. Since Mr. Chen has already said so, I won't beat around the bush."
Wang Qi paused for a moment and then said to Chen Junlin in a serious tone, "Mr. Chen, actually, the most important thing to invite you here this time is to discuss with you privately to work together to deal with the Zhou family."
"Deal with the Zhou family? I'm not interested." Chen Junlin found it funny.
It seemed like the little tricks of the Wang family and Zhou family were too childish. They had acted in a show where they didn't get along with each other, and now the Wang family had come to talk to him about joining forces to deal with the Zhou family. Clearly, they wanted him to fall into the trap of the two families.
Wang Qi didn't expect Chen Junlin to refuse so straightforwardly. Therefore, in order to infuriate Chen Junlin, he said, "Mr. Chen, can Mr. Chen swallow this insult when Miss Zhou was humiliated in the Zhou family?"
"And from what I know, the Zhou family will not let this matter rest. They are trying to think of a way to deal with Zhou Xueyu."
"If Mr. Chen doesn't join forces with the Wang family, it won't be wise for her to face the Zhou family alone."
Chen Junlin harrumphed coldly. Putting down the cup in his hand, he said to Wang Qi, "This is my own matter. I won't trouble the Wang family's ancestor. Also, I will leave the matter to you. My men, the Zhou family doesn't dare to move."
"Since the Wang family's master has apologized and the matter has been settled, I don't have to stay any longer." Chen Junlin wanted to leave after saying that.
Wang Qi's expression turned cold when he saw this. He felt disdain in his heart. Chen Junlin was so young and arrogant, so stupid.
He now felt that he was a little ridiculous. Such a stupid man actually needed the three families to work together to deal with him.
He felt that dealing with this kind of young man who did not know the immensity of heaven and earth, there was simply no need to expend so much fighting, just directly having people suppress him.
