Zhou Jiren’s face was red with mortification, and he spoke shafully, "I really didn’t expect this, these two unfilial sons, to still be here insulting Master Su. After the incident in Pingnan Province last ti, I have constantly been chastising them, thinking they would reform. I didn’t expect them to be unchangeable, like a dog returning to its vomit!"
Su Yang glanced at Zhou Jun and Zhou ng, his brows slightly furrowing. Was Zhou Jiren here to make an appeal for them, to save so money?
If that was the case, Su Yang would hold Zhou Jiren in contempt.
Su Yang didn’t care about the money, but if Zhou Jiren was just going to indulge his children like this, Su Yang wouldn’t give him face either.
Zhou Jiren sighed deeply, and said in a heavy voice, "Master Su, the representatives of the Ten Great Families have already inford below. To make ands for the unfilial act that Zhou Jun committed, a hundred million is necessary. How about this, I’ll give two hundred million to express my apologies!"
At these words, Zhou Jun and Zhou ng were the first to panic. To take out so much money all at once, just because of a few words they said?
"Grandfather..." Zhou Jun began urgently.
"Shut your mouth!" Zhou Jiren roared, and Zhou Jun was so frightened that he dared not speak any further.
Su Yang let out a sigh of relief. It wasn’t about whether he wanted the money or not; he wanted to see Zhou Jiren’s attitude.
"Grandfather Zhou, we are actually all one family. I just wanted to teach them a lesson, so they don’t continue to misbehave in the future!" said Su Yang. "There’s no need for the money, but I do hope that Grandfather Zhou can keep them in line in the future and prevent similar incidents from happening again!"
Zhou Jun and Zhou ng were overjoyed at the prospect of saving so much money; it was truly a huge relief.
However, Zhou Jiren showed not the slightest joy. He waved his hand and said, "Master Su, I’ve said that I would give the money, so I will definitely do so. Furthermore, I’ve decided to hand over all my assets to Yinghao!"
"What?" Su Yang and Zhou Jun and Zhou ng were all stunned. What was this new developnt?
Zhou Jiren continued, "Master Su, I’ve seen the light. With the characters of these two, my estate would be wasted in their hands before long. Therefore, it’s better to give it to Yinghao; after all, his grandfather and I are biological brothers. It’s our lineage’s wealth in the end. If it’s in Yinghao’s hands, I have no worries at all. I’m confident he can further our family’s legacy!"
Su Yang looked at Zhou Jiren. He wasn’t testing Su Yang, but truly felt this way in his heart.
Su Yang was moved. Zhou Jiren was indeed different from the average person. To be able to do this was not easy. After all, people are selfish, and all want to leave their wealth to their own children.
Yet Zhou Jiren was willing to hand over the estate to Zhou Yinghao, sothing not many could do.
"Grandfather..." Zhou Jun beca anxious, "How can you give the property to soone else? It’s ours..."
"Silence!" Zhou Jiren snapped. "What good is it in your hands? To spend lavishly for a few years, squander the wealth, and then beg for a living? My hard-earned family business isn’t ant to support a bunch of hopeless cases sitting idly by. I want to see our abandoned lineage rise and shine one day! Can you do that? Do you have the ability to do so?"
Zhou Jun’s face reddened with anger, "Why can’t I do it? I just haven’t started doing business, that’s all. If I did, I would have made a fortune long ago!"
"This is all you’ll ever achieve in your lifeti!" Zhou Jiren dismissed the notion with a wave of his hand. "Master Su, I’ll revise my will as soon as I get back. Moreover, starting tomorrow, I will begin gradually transferring my assets to Yinghao’s company!"
"Grandfather, what about us?" Zhou Jun asked urgently.
"If you have the ability, then earn your own keep," Zhou Jiren said coldly. "I will leave each of you with a million until you graduate from college, and the leftover money should be enough for a down paynt for a house. If you’re so capable, then go earn another estate. If not, go beg!"
Zhou Jun and Zhou ng were dumbfounded. Their own grandfather had actually done such a thing?
"Grandpa, you... you’ve gone too far..." Zhou ng said anxiously.
"You brought this upon yourselves!" Zhou Jiren shouted angrily and then gave a bow to Su Yang, "Master Su, I must apologize again for this incident. I won’t disturb you any longer, and if you’re free tomorrow, may I treat you to a al?"
"Please don’t be too polite, Grandfather Zhou. As the younger generation, I should arrange the al!" Su Yang quickly said.
Zhou Jiren didn’t say anything more, just nodded to Su Yang and then left with Zhou Jun and Zhou ng.
As they left, Su Yang could hear Zhou Jun and Zhou ng pleading from a distance. However, judging by Zhou Jiren’s attitude, he was unlikely to listen to them anymore.
Most of the prodigal sons outside were also picked up and taken away.
During this process, a few of them, relying on their status and position, wanted to rush up to confront Su Yang. But before they could even reach the stairs, they were killed by people from the Ten Great Families.
In this way, those who had co were even less daring to cause a fuss. They all obediently paid and took their people back ho.
Without a doubt, none of these city prodigal sons could expect to get a good night’s sleep that evening. Even though their parents had paid to get them back, a punishnt was inevitable.
After giving Old Lin another acupuncture treatnt, Old Lin was then sent down to rest by Master Fang.
Old Lin’s injury was two years old, and not easy to heal; recovery would take ti, and Su Yang could only proceed slowly.
As everyone dispersed, Su Yang hadn’t even had a chance to close the door when he saw Huo Qianfang directly heading towards his room.
Su Yang’s heart skipped a beat. What was Huo Qianfang planning to do?
Huo Qianfang didn’t wait for Su Yang to speak before she pushed the door open and entered.
"Miss Huo..." Su Yang said, his face full of embarrassnt. Thinking of the incident that happened in Pingnan Province, he was still sowhat afraid of Huo Qianfang.
This girl didn’t play by the rules, and while Su Yang was afraid of neither heaven nor earth, he just couldn’t handle her.
"Miss Huo!?" Huo Qianfang glared at Su Yang and suddenly kicked towards him, "So you do rember , huh? Why did you run away as soon as you saw earlier? Am I that ugly?"
Su Yang quickly dodged and said with an awkward smile, "No, it’s not that... I really needed to go to the bathroom..."
"Bathroom, my foot! I don’t want to hear your nonsense!" Huo Qianfang shouted angrily. "Tell , when are you going to write the song you promised ?"
"Ah?" Su Yang was stunned. "I... when did I promise you?"
"What, trying to weasel out of it!" Huo Qianfang glared. "Last ti we were in the sa room, you told so. Do you want to deny it now? Should I go out and tell everyone about it, let them judge for themselves?"
