602 The Big Family’s Infighting

“Why? That old fellow is remarkably obstinate. Till the last moment before he closes his eyes, he will not take the initiative to give up his power. He likes to watch us juniors fight both openly and secretly in front of him. Only then would he feel a sense of accomplishment. This old fart is really annoying.” When Zhou Wei said this, he felt a little helpless.

“It’s not just us juniors. Some of the management in the family are also very repulsed, but there’s nothing we can do. We all want that old fellow to die as soon as possible, but he just doesn’t die. He even wants us to listen to his arrangements. Isn’t it infuriating?” Zhou Wei added.

“If you target the Zhou family now, you might anger him so much it drives him to his grave. I guess your old master didn’t expect that the Zhou family would have such a disrespectful person like you, right?” Chu Ning mocked.

“Which of my brothers and sisters don’t think so? But who can be blamed that they’re stupid and arrogant? Being incapable is a sin. Same with me; the Zhou family can easily crush me now,” Zhou Wei said disapprovingly.

“Zhou Hao’s mood can’t have been too good recently. He’s probably planning something big. But you’re the one who wants to deal with him. So, have you thought of your next step?” Zhou Wei then pulled the topic back on track.

“The current…” Chu Ning was about to speak when her phone suddenly rang.

Chu Ning took out her phone and saw the incoming call notification. When she picked up the call, she sounded a little surprised. “Hello, Second Brother.”

Zhou Wei, on the other hand, was quietly sipping his coffee without making a sound.

Chu Ning hadn’t been back to the Chu residence recently. For Second Brother, Chu Jing, to call her at this time, it was very likely that something had happened at home.

“Xiao Ning, where are you now? Are you busy?” Chu Jing sounded helpless. As he spoke, Chu Ning could hear the noise on the other end.

Chu Ning looked at Zhou Wei, who was drinking coffee with his head lowered, and said hurriedly, “I’m not busy, Second Brother. What’s going on at home?”

“Then hurry back. There’s someone here who came to cause trouble. It seems like…they’re looking for you,” Chu Jing said hesitantly.

“What?” Chu Ning subconsciously said upon hearing Chu Jing’s words.

“Alright, Second Brother. I’ll go back now.” After hanging up the phone, Chu Ning frowned.

Who would go all the way to her house to cause trouble?

Moreover, it was the residence of her parents. Chu Ning subconsciously thought of Ye Zhen.

Chu Ning looked at Zhou Wei and said apologetically, “My apologies, I have something to deal with at home. Please pardon me.”

“It’s fine. I was just walking around in The Parade. I’ve only been here for a short while, and I’m very interested in your place.” Zhou Wei waved his hand. He could also hear that Chu Ning’s tone was a little anxious.

Half an hour later.

Chu Ning saw from afar that there were many people watching the commotion downstairs from her house.

A middle-aged woman whom Chu Ning did not recognize was agitatedly pointing at her parents and saying something loudly. Chu Jing was standing to the side expressionlessly. Chu Huan was not around, but the staff of the neighborhood committee was mediating.

Chu Ning couldn’t see the troublemaker’s face nor hear what she was saying from dozens of meters away, but she knew that it wasn’t anything good.

Chu Ning heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it was nothing big.

“Is your daughter so great just because she has a few stinking yuan? Let me tell you, if I don’t see her today, I’ll sleep on the floor in front of your house. I’ll stay in here until she comes back!” the trouble-making woman shouted.

A man next to the middle-aged woman threatened fiercely, “There are some things that I don’t want to specify too clearly, but if you insist on sending my brother-in-law to jail, I won’t let your family off either!”

“If there’s any issue, we can sit down and discuss it. It’s not good for you to block the doorway and not explain the whole story, right?” The mediating staff was also patiently persuading him.

“Yes, Old Chu’s family is quite alright. Old Chu and his wife are kind and honest. His children are also very good. He only has one daughter. Have you guys gotten it wrong; what do you mean by sending to jail?” The neighbors who were watching the commotion also spoke up for Mr. and Mrs. Chu. However, they could not understand what the man and woman were saying. It was really puzzling.
