Zhou Yuexi looked at the two people who were still standing there talking and laughing happily, and what he hated in his heart was that his teeth were itching, so he muttered softly.

"Oh, by the way, I haven't seen the old man for a long time. Is the old man in good health recently?"

Qu Qingfeng seemed to have suddenly remembered something, and asked Wang Yongdao with a smile on his face.

Hearing the Taoist priest's question, the young man said politely, saying that his grandfather is in good health now.

Even the pain that used to flare up from time to time has eased a lot now.

After Qu Qingfeng finished listening, a trace of apology flashed across his face.

Until now, he still apologizes for not being able to fully heal the old man.

"I don't know if the chief is free recently. I would like to invite the chief to be a guest at home."

"Grandpa often talks about it, and wants to see the Taoist priest again."

Hearing what Wang Yong said, the girl couldn't help but sneered in her heart.

The fox's tail is finally exposed. I still want to ask the Taoist priest to go home. Have you asked me for my opinion first?

The Taoist priest hasn't been to this lady's house yet, how could this lady let the Taoist priest go to your little boy's home!
But just when the girl was about to speak and reject Wang Yong for the Taoist priest, the voice of the Taoist priest came from beside her.

"Mr. Wang kindly invites me, and I will not refuse it. It just so happens that the poor Taoist also wants to visit the old man."

Hearing this sentence, the girl seemed to have been struck by five thunders, and she just froze in place.

No matter how she thought about it, she never imagined that the Taoist priest would agree so simply, which caused the girl's young heart to suffer tens of millions of injuries.

Hearing that the Taoist leader had agreed to himself, the young man hurriedly ordered the driver to drive.

Then, he took a step forward, and just about to say something, he saw the girl's two gazes, as if they were about to spew/fire.

"Uh, Miss Zhou, do you want to..."

Before the young man finished speaking, he was interrupted by the girl.

She didn't care about Wang Yong's next words, whether she invited herself to be a guest at home, and directly expressed that she wanted to go to Wang Yong's home with the Taoist priest.

This operation made Wang Yong a little confused, but he quickly reacted and asked the two to get into the car very gentlemanly.

. . . . . .

After leaving Qu Qingfeng's Taoist temple, the group of young people hurried back to Zhou's villa.

Standing in front of the gate of Zhou's villa, the young man who had been talking to Qu Qingfeng stopped in his tracks.

After thinking for a while, he asked those young people to wait outside first, and went in by himself.

"master."

After entering the villa, the young man walked to the door of the study and knocked lightly on the door.

After the sound came from inside, the young man took a deep breath, turned the doorknob and pushed the door in.

"Is someone here? Let him wait a moment."

The middle-aged man was sitting at a desk with a computer in front of him.

The middle-aged man's fingers kept flying on the keyboard, as if he was dealing with something.

After the young man heard the master's words, he still stood there, motionless.

The expression on his face changed again and again, his palms and back were soaked with sweat, his lips quivered slightly, and he didn't say a word for a long time.

Father Zhou, who was sitting at the desk dealing with things, noticed that the young man was still standing there out of the corner of his eye, and his brows frowned.

"Anything else?"

Hearing the master's question, the young man felt as if he had been struck by a thunderbolt, and he couldn't help shaking.

"Old...Master, we didn't invite that little Taoist priest."

The young man's lips moved, and his tone trembled.

The middle-aged man who was dealing with business suddenly stopped what he was doing and stood up.

He came out from behind the desk, looking up and down at the young man.

"Since you haven't been invited, why are you coming back?"

Father Zhou's tone was calm, as if an elder in the family was asking if the child who came back late had eaten.

Hearing this sentence, the young man froze all over, as if the blood flowing in his body had been frozen.

"Old...Master, we saw Miss in the Taoist temple of that little Taoist!"

The young man swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and spoke to the middle-aged man with some difficulty.

Father Zhou, who was originally looking up and down at the young man, suddenly settled on the young man's face.

He patted the young man on the shoulder lightly, and said with a smile on his face.

"Tell me, did you read wrong?"

Feeling the strength from his shoulders, the young man's face suddenly turned pale with fright.

"The subordinates dare not lie to the master, everything they say is true, and there is no half-truth."

After the sentence was finished, the young man's heart was already in his throat.

Beads of sweat began to appear on his forehead, and his breathing intensified unconsciously.

After listening to his words, the middle-aged man did not speak immediately, nor did he let go of the hand on his shoulder.

For a moment, the whole study fell into an eerie silence, as if he could hear his heart beating violently.

"I know, you go down first."

The eerie quiet atmosphere in the study lasted for a long time, and Father Zhou didn't speak until the young man was almost unable to withstand the pressure, his legs gave way and he fell to his knees.

And the hand that was originally on the young man's shoulder was also released.

"Yes, sir."

Hearing that the middle-aged man let him go, he felt a sigh of relief.

As if he was afraid that the middle-aged man would go back on his word, he hurriedly said.

"Wait a moment."

Even though he had already reached the door, when he was about to leave the room, the master suddenly stopped him from behind.

This made him let go of his heart, but it was lifted again.

His hands trembled slightly, and he turned around stiffly, waiting for the master's order.

"Call me the butler."

Hearing that the master just asked himself to call the butler without saying anything more, he let out a sigh of relief, bowed his head in response, and left the room directly.

A moment later, there was another knock on the door outside the study.

After Father Zhou let the people outside the door come in, he also stood up from the office chair.

"Master, are you looking for me?"

The housekeeper bowed halfway and asked respectfully.

At this time, the middle-aged man still had a smile on his face, as if he inadvertently asked if Zhou Yuexi, the housekeeper, was still in the room.

Hearing this question, the butler suddenly felt tense.

Although he has sent many people to look for Miss for many days, but until today, they still haven't found her.

Now that the master asked, no matter how scared the housekeeper was, he could only bite the bullet and continue to lie.

"Master, Miss is still studying in the room, do you need to ask Miss to come down?"

The butler put his mind to one side, made a dangerous move, and asked Zhou's father to advance as a retreat.
