187: Shall We Break Up?

The Zhou family mansion covered an area of ​​nearly 2,000 square meters, including the courtyard garden. Although it was winter, there were still many flowers and plants in the garden. Many of them were planted by Wang Cheng's grandfather himself. When people reached a certain age, they liked to relax. Wang Cheng's grandfather's biggest hobby in this life was planting these flowers and plants. In addition, there were many tall evergreens.

It was too cold to stay outside for long. The two returned to the house soon. The Zhou steward brought Wang Cheng to take a look upstairs. There were many rooms upstairs. Except for the bedrooms and guest rooms, most of them were casual. His and Mother Zheng’s rooms were next to each other.

Although the corridors were quite long, Wang Cheng probably remembered it after seeing it. He let the Zhou steward go back to work; he could navigate by himself. The Zhou steward agreed with a smile.

After he left, Wang Cheng went blindly on his own. The second floor was the floor where the Zhou family lived. The third floor also had rooms, but no one lived there.

Wang Cheng wandered around and came to his room after a while. There had already been servants called to clean it up, the Zhou steward said that his grandfather ordered it. The room was relatively simple. I had all the necessary furniture, and looked nice. To the left was Mother Zheng's room, and then his grandfather's room beside hers.

When Wang Cheng came out of the room, he almost collided with a person when he turned in the corridor. Before he could speak, the other person scolded ‘blind first. After scolding, he snorted. That person was Zhao Chenlin. Because of Wang Cheng's arrival, his status in the Zhou family had plummeted. This new hatred combined with the old hatred caused him to dislike Wang Cheng.

"It turns out to be my cousin."

Wang Cheng greeted him in a very good mood.

"Who is your cousin? Don't randomly recognize relatives, I don't have a cousin like you." Zhao Chenlin disregarded his face without a thought. These days, he had listened to others say that his grandpa was planning to announce that Wang Cheng was the heir of the Zhou Group at the banquet. This made him feel extremely bad. Now, suddenly seeing the culprit, he couldn't help himself.

Wang Cheng nodded. "I see. I'll pass that on to our grandfather for you."

"You." Zhao Chenlin stared at him with wide eyes.

Wang Cheng patted his shoulder and said as he passed by, "If you want the Zhou Group, first make up for your missing half of double Q."

What was double Q?

Zhao Chenlin didn't understand this, but he knew that it was definitely not a good thing. He gloomily looked at Wang Cheng’s back as he leisurely walked downstairs, then punched the white wall.

Mother Zheng asked Wang Cheng to stay with her at the Zhou house. This was promised by Wang Cheng before. It was just a change of place. Wang Cheng had to call Chu Yifeng to tell him that he would not go back at night. However, he could not reach his phone, it was most likely turned off. When he called David, he learned that Chu Yifeng's father came to look for him today. He did not know what the two spoke of, but Chu Yifeng had not returned since he left with him.

At this time, the Chu family was permeated with a tense atmosphere. The phone Wang Cheng called laid on the floor of the living room in pieces.

Chu Yifeng sat on a single sofa in a relaxed posture. Opposite him was Grandfather Chu, who was so angry that his chest violently moved up and down. The reason came from the words "Wang Cheng and I are lovers." Everyone didn’t know, but in fact, saying that they were dating was obviously to start a showdown, and to provoke.

While Grandfather Chu waved his walking stick, he accidentally broke one of his favorite teapots. At that time, when Wang Cheng called Chu Yifeng, the old man looked at his expression and guessed that it must be his lover. Sweeping the cane ruthlessly and accurately, his mobile phone flew out and heavily fell to the ground. The old man spoke simply.

"If you don't break up with him, you can’t go to the Zhou banquet tomorrow."

Chu Yifeng must accompany Wang Cheng to his first birthday banquet tomorrow. The words of the old man were majestic, but the content was not enough. The involved party did not listen at all.

Chu Li leisurely watched the scene of the grandfather and grandson competing side by side. As Chu Yifeng's father, he didn't actually object to whoever his son chose as his partner, no matter whether it was a man or a woman. As for children of a son-in-law, it needn’t be mentioned that science and technology was so developed in this century. Now, they were not like the people in the ancient times who regarded the succession of the lineage as very important, not to mention that he was not the only junior of the Chu family.

Chu Yifeng patted his pants and stood up. He stared directly at Grandfather Chu and domineeringly said: "Grandpa, it's not up to you whether I go to the banquet or not. I’m not my father, your words are useless to me."

Chu Li gave a cough. Why should he compare them?

Grandfather Chu was really going to get mad at him, but what he said was indeed true. This grandson was different from everyone else. He had not lived with him since he was a child, and naturally had no sense of his majesty. He was not restricted by him in any way. In this case, how could he, who was inherently indifferent and independent, listen to his grandfather?

It was really not easy when a freak like Chu Yifeng appeared in a rigorous family like the Chu family. This was a fact that Grandfather Chu did not want to admit.

"If there is nothing else, I’m going first." Chu Yifeng waved smartly and walked towards the gate.

"Don't leave, stop him!" Grandfather Chu, whose authority was challenged, shouted loudly. However, it was not Chu Li who responded to him.

Chu Hong came in from outside, when he suddenly heard the old man’s words full of anger. He reacted after a moment, striding over almost subconsciously. This was educated under iron-blooded and majestic firm policies of Grandfather Chu. He was a 'good role model'.

Chu Yifeng avoided his hand, and the uncle and nephew started to fight at the gate. Chu Yifeng's skills were not all learned from the Chu family. Because of his identity, he was sent by his grandfather to learn boxing and so on. When he was 10 years old, he followed others and was involved in very dangerous things. By the time he returned, none of the Chu family juniors were his opponents.

Although Chu Hong was an elder and had more experience, in the end, he was old. After a few dozen moves, he faintly fell behind. Grandfather Chu immediately called out the bodyguards. Several of them were retired from the special forces and were very skilled. However, they were not the same as Chu Hong, and they didn’t dare to fight with Chu Yifeng. They could only watch in the end.

When Grandfather Chu walked out, he didn’t see anyone.

Chu Li came to him and said gleefully, "Dad, I think you have no chance. It's impossible for such a person to change because of a few words from you. If you are really anxious, send him and his lover abroad and they may not come back."

However, his grandson's headquarters were abroad. This was the place where Grandfather Chu was most helpless. It was not impossible for him to stay abroad without returning.

Grandfather Chu raised his cane and wanted to beat him. Chu Li quickly backed away and kept a distance of two meters from him. Grandfather Chu said angrily, "As his father, it is your responsibility to pull your son back to the right path. I don't care about you. I’ll leave this matter to you. If it is not handled well, I will start with the strange people beside you.”

Chu Li frowned when he heard his words. "Dad, you are too unreasonable."

Grandfather Chu frowned, "Do you want to reason with me?"

Chu Li immediately heard the threat in the old man's words. This was a strong buy and a strong sell. If he didn’t agree, he would knock him down, right? But this trick did work. He had too much of a dark history. If even one piece was displayed, the old man might get mad.

Wang Cheng received Chu Yifeng's phone call in the evening. He called him with David's mobile phone. He didn't say what happened at the Chu house, he just told him not to worry, and to prepare for the birthday banquet tomorrow.

"Fine. How could the phone break?" Wang Cheng had a hunch that Chu Yifeng might have had a showdown with his family.

Chu Yifeng gave a laugh as soft as feathers. "Worried about me? Don't worry, I will definitely go to your birthday banquet tomorrow."

Wang Cheng coughed. "I might not be able to meet you during the day tomorrow. My mother is taking me to Master Paul’s to try on clothing. There is also the banquet. My schedule is already full. I just wanted to tell you first."

"See you at the party then."

"You remember to buy a new cell phone." Wang Cheng didn't want to find anyone.

Chu Yifeng promised to buy it, and the two talked before hanging up.

Wang Cheng turned off the screen of his mobile phone and was about to go downstairs, when a text message came to his mobile phone. He opened the text message and read it.

"..."

In the villa, Chu Yifeng was preparing to return the mobile phone to David, when it also received a text message, which was sent by Wang Cheng. There was only a series of ellipsis. He decisively called to ask.

"What's wrong with your text message?"

Wang Cheng's weak voice came over. "I just received a text message from your mobile phone number. Guess what the text message said."

"What?"

"Let's break up."

"..."

"It says, ‘Let's break up’. Ooh, your family is too foolish. How did they come up with such a method that even a three-year-old wouldn't use?" Wang Cheng always thought that the Chu family had a kind of serious military style, and that the people cultivated in the family were certainly not ordinary people. However, today, this text message had overturned his knowledge of the Chu family. It was simply...too naive, hahaha.

Chu Yifeng laughed, "Did you reply?"

"Replied."

"What did you say?"

"’Alright’."

Chu Yifeng could already imagine what Grandfather Chu would look like when he saw Wang Cheng's reply. Only those old men who would occasionally showed boyish attributes would do such a thing.
