Zhou Quan invited Xiao Jie to the noble guest room, and ordered the servants in the mansion to serve him a cup of hot tea, then excused himself to invite his father, Zhou Jun, and left in a hurry, leaving Xiao Jie alone in the noble guest room.

After listening to his son Zhou Quan's narration, Zhou Jun was also very confused for a while.

Although his intuition told him that Xiao Jie's visit was not kind and the purpose was not pure, but he couldn't figure out Xiao Jie's intention at all.

Zhou Jun also didn't want to rush to meet the guests before he understood Xiao Jie's thoughts, lest he be caught off guard by Xiao Jie.

Therefore, Zhou Jun asked Zhou Quan to go to the expensive guest room to talk to Xiao Jiexu and Wei Snake first, to take the opportunity to find out the other party's tone, and to find out his real purpose of coming to Zhou Mansion, so that he could have a countermeasure.

Zhou Quan didn't dare to disobey his order, so he could only return to the expensive guest room, but he saw Xiao Jie sitting quietly in his seat, sipping tea leisurely, showing no signs of being left out.

As soon as Zhou Quan entered the guest room, his face immediately changed into a regretful expression, and he said to Xiao Jie full of apology: "Your Highness, it is really unfortunate, I just asked the servants in the mansion that my father went out a quarter of an hour ago I'm a friend now, and I'm not in the mansion now, you see..."

While speaking, Zhou Quan's eyes kept falling on Xiao Jie's face, not letting go of any change in expression.

But to his disappointment, Xiao Jie's expression was as usual, without any emotional fluctuations, he just smiled and said: "It's okay, I just took the liberty to visit, since Zhou Zhongshuling is not in the mansion, I just wait here for him."

Xiao Jie's answer was beyond Zhou Quan's expectation. He originally thought that Xiao Jie would either walk away in anger, or leave and come back another day, but he didn't expect Xiao Jie to choose to stay in Zhou's mansion instead of leaving, as if he didn't see Zhou Jun. The appearance of swearing not to give up puts Zhou Quan in a dilemma, one head and two big.

In desperation, Zhou Quan had no choice but to continue to ask tentatively: "Your Highness, why don't you tell me what you want to see my father, and I can tell you something for Your Highness."

Xiao Jie smiled slightly, shook his head and said, "Don't bother Brother Zhou, I'd better wait and explain clearly to your father in person."

Seeing that Xiao Jie's tone was so strict that he couldn't find out any useful information at all, Zhou Quan had no choice but to send someone to find Zhou Jun under the pretext, left the guest room again, returned to Zhou Jun's residence, and told his father that he could not find Xiao Jie's information at all. Thinking, he insisted on seeing his father.

Zhou Jun snorted coldly, and said coldly: "Since he likes to wait, let him wait slowly in the expensive guest room. I want to see how long he can wait."

After saying that, Zhou Jun ordered his servants to bring the chessboard, and asked his son Zhou Quan to accompany him to play a game, ignoring Xiao Jie who was hanging in the guest room.

Zhou Quan had no choice but to obey, sitting opposite Zhou Jun, the father and son began a fight on the chessboard.

It's just that Zhou Quan is young, and he is not as calm as his father Zhou Jun. Although he is playing chess, he is thinking about Xiao Jie from time to time. My father pressed on every step of the way, but he was unable to fight back, so he had to surrender in the end.

There was no joy of victory on Zhou Jun's face, he just looked up at his son, his eyes seemed a little dissatisfied: "You are not too young, and you have already entered the court as an official, why are you still so irritable and so impatient."

Zhou Quan was taught a lesson by his father, his face turned red and white, and he didn't dare to tell the truth, but just bowed his head and confessed his mistake to Zhou Jun repeatedly.

Seeing his son's appearance, Zhou Jun couldn't help feeling a little soft-hearted, sighed and said: "Forget it, you go to the expensive guest room to have a look first, if Xiao Jie is really too calm to leave, you should first stabilize him for your father, one by one." After a few minutes, I will go to your guest room to meet him and find out what kind of medicine he sells in his gourd."

Hearing that his father was finally willing to see Xiao Jie, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief, so that he could go to see Xiao Jie again.

Zhou Quan felt the wind under his feet, and walked quickly back to the expensive guest room, but just as he was about to speak, Xiao Jie said to him first: "Brother Zhou, since your father is so busy, I will not bother you today, and I will come to visit you again when you are free. .”

Zhou Quan couldn't help being dumbfounded when he heard this.

What's the situation, why just now his father didn't want to see him, Xiao Jie, but insisted on waiting for him in the expensive guest room, now his father finally decided to see him, but he wants to leave.

However, knowing his father is Mo Ruozi, Zhou Quan also knew that his father did not want to see Xiao Jie, and now that Xiao Jie was leaving by himself, he did not want to keep him, but there was still a regretful look on his face: "Your Highness, I am really sorry, my father also I didn't expect it to be so unfortunate, I hope His Highness will calm down."

Xiao Jie smiled slightly: "It's okay, it's really a pity that I can't see your father today."

Zhou Quan always felt that there was something in Xiao Jie's words, but he didn't like to talk too much, so he had to send Xiao Jie to the direction of the gate while pleading guilty.

Xiao Jie walked to the door, but suddenly stopped, turned back and said seriously to Zhou Quan: "Anyway, I still have to thank your father, if it wasn't for your father to tell me about this, I still don't know that he is such a person, anyway , since this matter has nothing to do with your father, I will never embarrass the Zhou family, as for the person who harmed me, I not only want him to be ruined, but also want him to die without a place to bury him."

Xiao Jie's nonsensical words completely stunned Zhou Quan, and he didn't understand what Xiao Jie was talking about at all.

But he didn't dare to ask more questions, and he didn't dare to refute Xiao Jie's face, so he could only nod his head repeatedly, which was considered perfunctory.

After Xiao Jie finished speaking, he bowed his hands to Zhou Quan, then turned around, got into the carriage and drove away.

Zhou Quan watched Xiao Jie's carriage gradually go away, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but his heart was still in a fog, and he was even vaguely uneasy. After all, he didn't believe that Xiao Jie would be so boring, so he came to visit their Zhou residence on purpose. , wanted to see his father by name, but he patted his ass and left before he had seen him. I always felt that there was something weird about it.

After sending Xiao Jie away, Zhou Quan was about to get up and go back to the mansion. The waiter at the side hesitated for a moment, but he still couldn't help telling him that there was a carriage parked not far from the mansion for a long time, and he recognized it as the driver of Zheng Shilang from the household department. .

Upon hearing the words "Zheng Shilang", Zhou Quan's face darkened, and a trace of undisguised disgust flashed in his eyes.

Zheng Lang's failure to humiliate Xiao Jie not only caused the emperor's dissatisfaction, but also caused Xiao Jie's revenge. Zheng Lang's scandal was widely publicized by the "Sili Times", and everyone knew about it, and his reputation was discredited. However, the Zhou family chose to stay at arm's length and draw a clear line.

Although Zheng Lang is his father's henchman, but now he has offended the emperor and Xiao Jie at the same time, his reputation will be ruined and he will not be able to protect himself, he has no use value, the Zhou family will naturally not protect him, lest he cause trouble, and in the end it will implicate the Zhou family.

Seeing a sneaky figure not far away, Zhou Quan recognized Zheng Lang at a glance. He couldn't help snorting coldly, and told the doorman that if Zheng Lang wanted to see the Patriarch, he would be turned away. Do not return to leave the gate.

Zheng Lang watched Zhou Quan's figure disappear into the gate, but his gaze was surprisingly calm, but it was terrifyingly calm.

He knew that Zhou Quan must have seen him, but he just pretended not to see him on purpose.

He also remembered that before he was in trouble, Zhou Quan had always called Zheng Shishu affectionately to him, but now he deliberately turned a blind eye to him.

At this moment, Zheng Lang no longer felt sadness in his heart, only an unforgettable hatred remained.

Since your Zhou family is unkind, don't blame me, Zheng Lang, for being unrighteous.

Zheng Lang secretly made a decision against his ancestors in his heart!
