Real And Fake Young Lady: I Have Seven Brothers Pampering Me After I Transmigrated Novel - Chapter 328

328 Secret Conversation

She had come back to life.

M City was located at the northernmost end of Province A, while A City was located at the southernmost end of Province A.

The distance between the two was hundreds of kilometers. The biggest difference was that A City was the capital of Province A, and its economy was much more developed and prosperous than M City.

The main influence of Cheng Yi’s maiden family was in A City. Her father, Cheng Huai, already knew about Chu Ning’s matter and that his granddaughter had been bullied very badly.

“Zhou Hai, I heard that you have a grandson in M City?” At this time, in an ancient teahouse, two elderly men were sitting across from each other. The wooden table between them held an exquisite tea set, and steam was rising from it.

“I’m not sure; I’m getting old! I’ve handed over almost all the family affairs to my eldest son. As for my grandsons, I don’t care for nor want to get involved in the affairs of the younger generation,” the elderly man named Zhou Hai slowly spoke with some regret.

“Do you think I don’t know you? You’ve already arranged everything behind my back. Your favorite grandson is called Zhou Wei, right? He’s in M City. On the surface, your eldest son doesn’t value him and doesn’t even like him. Didn’t you instigate that? You want to temper this little fellow’s heart so that he can inherit your Zhou family’s huge family business. It’s a pity that your remaining grandsons who have the right of inheritance don’t know the truth yet,” Cheng Huai said directly.

“Why are you saying this? What are you up to now, old man?” Zhou Hai shot a glance at Cheng Huai. That was exactly what he was thinking, but he didn’t know why the other party had said it out loud.

“You know my precious daughter. I’ve doted on her since she was young. She’s almost 40 now. Two days ago, she called me, crying, saying that her biological daughter was being bullied. Sigh, I couldn’t just stand by and do nothing,” Cheng Huai lamented.

“Then you settle it. I told you decades ago that you shouldn’t spoil your daughter, but you didn’t listen. Then you can spoil her for the rest of your life.” Zhou Hai’s mouth twitched as he stared at the teapot with his cloudy eyes, as though he was seeing Cheng Yi’s mischievous appearance when she was young.

“Can I not spoil her? She has an outstanding brother, so it’s destined that she won’t be able to inherit the family business… Sigh, It’s just that she married and moved too far away, and I don’t know the exact situation now. I was thinking that you have a lot of grandsons, so I wanted to ask you to send one to take a look,” Cheng Huai said helplessly.

“You have quite a few juniors as well,” Zhou Hai replied.

“Not as good as your family in causing trouble; just slightly worse at it. The Zhou Wei that you like the most looks exactly like you when you were young. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have shown his photo off to me. It’s not just his looks, but also his abilities.” Cheng Huai’s meaning was obvious. His juniors were not as good as Zhou Hai’s.

“Zhou Wei doesn’t listen to me. He doesn’t even listen to his father. I’m just an old man, so my words are useless,” Zhou Hai grumbled to himself, but his tone was filled with pride.

“That’s why I asked you to send one over. Don’t your grandsons like to fight among themselves? It’s a good opportunity to train Zhou Wei and solve my problems at the same time. Isn’t that great?” Cheng Huai said with a smile.

“You’re so calculative. So I’m the one who does all the work, and you don’t have to come up with anything for helping your precious daughter?” Zhou Hai said, upset.

“Don’t worry, I’ll give you the benefits you deserve. Sigh, I’m old now and only hope for my children to do well. I don’t actually have any feelings for my granddaughter, but I can’t just watch my daughter suffer and not be able to help as her father.” Cheng Huai was a little emotional. He was old and didn’t have many years left to live.

“Sometimes, you’re just not cruel enough. If you hadn’t married your precious daughter off to such a distant place, there wouldn’t be so many problems,” Zhou Hai complained.

“There’s nothing we can do about it. Who asked my Cheng Yi not to like your son back then? She just had to like that poor brat, Ye Zhen.” Cheng Huai was a little smug.

“If you continue, I’ll have to consider whether or not I’ll agree to your request,” Zhou Hai’s face darkened as he spoke in a deep voice.

“Okay, old friend, hurry and call your grandson. This matter has to be resolved so that I can have tea with you in peace. You don’t want my daughter to constantly come crying to me over the phone, right? This way, there won’t be anyone to play chess with you,” Cheng Huai said with a smile.

“I’ll make the call right away if you agree to a year of Guangye building’s management rights,” Zhou Hai said without changing his expression.

“You’re too ruthless. Half a year.” Cheng Huai’s aged face twitched unconsciously. Even if it was only half a year, it would still be a very considerable profit.
