Su Kun took out a piece of tissue and blew his nose. He said apologetically to
Chu Zhe, “I’m really sorry. As people get older, they become more sentimental.”
Chu Zhe naturally didn’t mind. He didn’t ask too much and instead said, “Should we give the Zhou family’s old master a reminder? After all, those idiots probably wouldn’t dare to tell him what they did.”
Su Kun nodded. “My thoughts exactly. Moreover, with that old man’s physical condition, there will probably be a struggle after he finds out.”
Su Kun narrowed his eyes, and his eyes flashed. “It’s just the right time to pave the way for that Zhou Wei. Let him remember that it’s better to have more friends than enemies.”
Chu Zhe nodded. Su Kun said, “You don’t have to worry about this. If you tell him, that old fox from the Zhou family will probably not give you any face. He won’t remember your kindness either.”
“Hmph!” Su Kun snorted coldly. “I’ll find someone to send this matter to that old fox through the Zhou family’s hands, so that he won’t be overly suspicious.”
Chu Zhe readily agreed. He wasn’t afraid that the Zhou family would hold a grudge against him, but he wasn’t willing to do something thankless.
Compared to Su Kun and Su Ming, who were in a good situation, the Lu family and Zhou family were not at all stable.
After the eldest son of the Zhou family received the call from the Lu family, his heart had been pounding. The Zhou family had many descendants, but not many of Old Master Zhou’s sons were outstanding. Therefore, everyone knew that the heir of the Zhou family would be one of the grandsons.
However, Old Master Zhou suddenly fell ill and did not even leave any instructions. This group of people began to stir again. When they heard the news that Zhou Yi had given Zhou Hao, they all felt that this was a very good opportunity. Perhaps if it was done well, Old Master Zhou would be able to see them.
The eldest son of the Zhou family thought the same, but he felt that something was amiss. He wanted to tell the old master about this, but he couldn’t bear to give up such a good opportunity. He was afraid that the old man would be biased and leave it to his grandchildren to handle it. Although his son Zhou Wei was the heir that the old man liked, he was not dead yet. It was not that b* *** * *’s turn.
He kept persuading himself, “If the old master wakes up today, tell him. If he doesn’t wake up today, it means that God deliberately helped me to leave this credit.”
He was feeling uneasy when he suddenly received a call. The sharp ringtone startled him. When he saw that the caller was his fifth brother, who was in the hospital that day, his heart skipped a beat. After some hesitation, he picked up the call.
His brother’s tone at the other end of the phone was not happy. “Big Brother, Dad is awake and asking everyone to go to the hospital.”
The eldest son of the Zhou family thought to himself that this was not good. Could it be that the heavens wanted him to confess? But he didn’t have time to think too much and hurried to the hospital.
In the hospital, all the sons of the Zhou family appeared in the VIP ward. Zhou Hai had a breathing tube in his nose and was resting with his eyes closed. The eldest son was the last to arrive. When he entered the room and called out to his father, Zhou Hai opened his eyes.
The old master looked at his good-for-nothing sons. It was impossible to say that he was not angry. Fortunately, there were some outstanding grandsons, especially Zhou Hao and Zhou Wei. They were both good children. He was very clear about his situation. He estimated that he would not have much time left. He had to decide on an heir while he was still had the energy.
Zhou Hai looked at his greedy and stupid sons. He could already imagine the chaos in the Zhou family after his death.
He tried his best to sit up. Fortunately, although his sons were stupid and bad, they were filial and had good judgment. They quickly came forward to help him up and even adjusted the pillows for him.
Old Master Zhou took a deep breath. Although he didn’t have much strength, his aura made those in the ward not even dare to breathe loudly. They listened carefully to him. “It’s good that you all came. You know my situation, and I know it too. After I go…”
At this point, Zhou Hai was a little short of breath and had to stop to catch his breath. He looked at the anticipation in the eyes of those in the ward. Although he knew that they were not looking forward to his death, he could not help but feel a little angry.
He took two deep breaths. Seeing that everyone’s expressions had turned into worry, he calmed down a little and continued, “After I leave, the Zhou family will be handed over to Zhou Wei..”
