Chapter 175: Gentle Knife, Every Knife Is Deadly
"Why are you here again? Is my house the gate to your vegetable garden?"
That day, Lin Xiao went to the factory as Wen Jin requested, and watched a batch of goods coming out. As soon as he returned home, he saw Zhou Ying sitting on the shoe-changing stool at the door of his house.
There were piles of cigarette butts at my feet and the entire aisle was filled with smoke.
It's very choking.
The old lady next door was living with her daughter-in-law and taking care of her grandson. When she saw Lin Xiao coming back, she opened the door and complained, "Lin girl, you should control your boyfriend. He smokes in the public area. What should the elderly and children on our floor do?"
When Zhou Ying heard the word "boyfriend", the gloom on his face disappeared.
Lin Xiao quickly responded: "Auntie, he is not my boyfriend, he is a harasser. Next time, just call the police."
The old lady looked embarrassed.
Knowing that she was a little girl living here, he asked, "Do you want me to call the police for you now?"
"No need," Lin Xiao didn't want to cause trouble for the old lady.
His eyes fell on the cigarette butt at Zhou Ying's feet: "Mr. Zhou, anyone with a bit of class wouldn't smoke in front of someone else's door."
"Apart from money, you have nothing to gain from morality, intelligence, physical fitness, aesthetics, and labor?"
"You dislike me so much?" Zhou Ying threw the cigarette butt in his hand to the ground, crushed it with his foot, slowly stood up and looked at Lin Xiao: "Wen Jin scolded me in front of you many times!"
"Never." Lin Xiao looked at him directly, "Mr. Zhou, don't think everyone is like you."
"Your great achievements can be known almost completely by visiting the Nanyang Club," Lin Xiao said as he pressed his fingerprint to open the door, threw the bag in, and took out the broom and tools placed by the door.
She swept up the cigarette butts at the door without complaint: "Mr. Zhou, you may not know that the princesses in the Nanyang Club are proud to be slept with by you because you are generous with your money."
Zhou Ying's face turned pale after hearing Lin Xiao's words. He watched her sweep up the cigarette butts bit by bit.
I felt humiliated as I dumped the garbage into the trash can in the elevator lobby.
Lin Xiao caught the mood of this nobleman and raised the broom in his hand: "Mr. Zhou, do you know how much this broom costs?"
“How much is the price per square meter of this house?”
"You don't know, right?" Lin Xiao looked at him calmly, "But I know that you live a life of luxury and extravagance, while I work from nine to five. We are destined not to be in the same class. There is no need to bow down for a little novelty and make both of us miserable."
"Goodbye!" Lin Xiao ordered the guest to leave and opened the door to go into the house.
Zhou Ying grabbed the door handle and said urgently, "I'm very curious, why do you treat the things that others are eager for so much as trash? Isn't my power, reputation, status, and money worth your mediation for a few days?"
Lin Xiao was so angry that he laughed.
This guy is either mentally retarded or an idiot.
"Because you're a scumbag, bro."
"Your purpose in coming to me is very clear, you just want to sleep with me."
"If you can't empathize with me, then go ask your sister if she would rush to get close to a scumbag if she knew he was after her money and sex."
"A person who is 180cm tall doesn't have any brains in his body, right?"
"Get lost! I'm telling you nicely that I'm giving you face, don't be shameless."
Bang——————Lin Xiao closed the door with a cold face.
You can't persuade this idiot anymore, right?
Zhou Ying was turned away and his face was gloomy.
He rushed to Cheng's house full of anger, pulled Cheng Lai out of bed, and beat him up.
The Cheng family was in chaos.
When the Zhou family arrived, Cheng Lai was already breathing out more than he was breathing in.
"Zhou Ying, we are all family, why can't we talk things out calmly? He is your relative, not your enemy. Are you trying to beat him to death?"
"Relatives?" Zhou Ying sneered. "I tried to gain benefits for him, but he sabotaged me behind my back. He said he would either have his legs broken or be sent to prison. Beating him would be a light punishment. Aunt, do I need to tell you what kind of person your son is?"
Zhou Shan was standing aside in his home clothes. Apparently, he was dragged out by his family just after taking a shower.
With an irritated look on her face, she gathered her ink painting shawl and reminded, "Aunt, shouldn't we take my cousin to the hospital now?"
.............
In the hospital, the Shen family was extremely anxious.
"Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Don't worry. The old lady also feels sorry for Xun Zhou."
"Xun Zhou is destined to shoulder the heavy responsibility of the Shen family in this life. He must compromise on everything and consider the family. There must be something that suits his heart."
Outside the ward, Hu Yue advised Song Jinzhi.
Her sister-in-law, in the old lady's words, was too conventional, thinking too much and ignoring what her son wanted.
Song Jinzhi sighed, looked at the people in the ward, turned his head slightly and said nothing.
Hu Yue knew that she was angry: "Sister-in-law, why do you have to do this? Xunzhou has been independent and responsible since he was young. He knows what he wants. If you stop him like this, it will make the relationship between you and your son more and more distant. Why not let him go and let him choose for himself? Can he like someone, and can someone like him? I heard from Mangmang that Wen Jin has rejected him many times."
Song Jin was choked. Wen Jin still looked down on Shen Xunzhou?
"Alright! What do young people know? Do you think being together means you can stay together for life across mountains and seas? Beyond mountains and seas are many floods and beasts. Tang Seng's journey to the West only had 81 difficulties. In marriage, it is more than ten times that."
"Then let him go," Song Jinzhi said with relief.
She wanted to see whether Wen Jin could walk into the marriage hall with him, and whether the two of them could stay together for a long time after that.
Can Shen Xunzhou strike a balance between the trivial daily life and his family?
In the ward, the old lady was still in a coma.
Shen Xunzhou's eyes fell on Shen Mang, who opened his thin lips and uttered two words silently: "Your mother......"
The man frowned slightly.
After leaving the ward, Shen Mang started talking: "Grandma and my aunt had a quarrel, and no one could stop them. My aunt weighed the pros and cons and made my grandma so angry that she couldn't breathe and fainted."
"Me and Wen Jin?"
"What else?" Shen Mang patted his chest and said, "Your mother is really awesome. She looked weak and frail over the years, but in fact...she is very strong."
It was only when Shen Mang met Song Jinzhi today that he realized what a gentle knife was, and every knife was deadly.
Terrible.
"Xun Zhou, you guys go back first! Your mother and I are enough here for tonight."
Shen Changze opened the door and came out, explaining a few things. Finally, he patted him on the shoulder and said, "As for Wen Jin, I will persuade your mother. Come on."
Shen Xunzhou was stunned, and a flash of surprise passed across his face: "Thank you, Dad."
"You are the only biological son of your mother and I. Parents always hope that their children can live an easy and happy life. Since you insist on choosing this path, then stick to it."
“Don’t forget your roots.”
