Chapter 966: The Zhu Family Is Ruthless

Chapter 966: Chapter 966: The Zhu Family Is Ruthless

"That’s not necessary; as long as Little Fu still holds a place for Mom in his heart, that’s enough!"

Bai Xue’s eyes brimmed with tears—truly a mix of sorrow and joy.

She suffered great grievances from her eldest son.

But through her youngest son, she found happiness.

Li Qingyan was also happy for Bai Xue. Out of two sons, at least one wasn’t like that.

It seemed not to be an issue of education; some people remain untainted despite growing in muddy waters, while others manage to sully themselves even on pure white snow.

"Mom, can I sit down and eat with you? It’s so boring inside; the adults keep talking in circles—don’t they get tired?"

Zhu Fu said with a smile.

"Sure, of course!"

Bai Xue let her son sit beside her, as if all previous grievances had been resolved.

"Hmm?"

Ye Fei suddenly looked toward the hotel entrance, and two people unexpectedly walked in—it was Yang Qi and Ye Qianqian.

He waved his hand.

Yang Qi came over with a smile.

"Is this Li’s friend?"

Yang Qi glanced at Bai Xue, extended his hand, and said with a smile, "My surname is Yang, and I’m more or less the Young Master of Qifei Group. I’ve long heard that Li has a friend like you, who helped her a lot overseas—thank you."

"It’s nothing, really!"

Bai Xue quickly shook hands with Yang Qi, awkwardly saying, "I originally wanted to invite Ye and Yanyan to dine in the private room, alas, it’s my incompetence that caused them grievances."

"Grievances?"

Yang Qi asked with interest; someone dared to bully his people—are they courting death?

Ye Fei briefly recounted the recent events.

Yang Qi sneered coldly, "The Zhu family? Fine, treating my people this way and dreaming of joining the top ten families—what a joke."

"What did you say?"

Bai Xue asked, dumbfounded.

"Nothing."

Yang Qi looked at Bai Xue and said, "You’re not sick, your symptoms clearly show poisoning, and it’s chronic poison that will eventually lead to a comatose state, becoming a complete vegetative state."

"What!"

Bai Xue was stunned!

Zhu Fu was stunned!

Li Qingyan was stunned!

Even Ye Qianqian was stunned!

Poisoning!

Anything involving poison is never good.

"But I went to the hospital for a check-up, and there were no signs of poisoning?"

Bai Xue was confused.

"Bai Xue, you should trust him; despite being young, he’s the number one Divine Doctor in the Southern Territory," Li Qingyan said. "He cured my heart ailment."

"It’s not that I don’t trust him; it’s just, who would poison me?"

Bai Xue frowned.

"Actually, you already have the answer in your heart; you’re just afraid to admit it," Yang Qi sighed and said, "If I’m not mistaken, your parents should have similar symptoms to yours. This is a family matter I shouldn’t meddle in, but your intuition is correct."

Bai Xue wanted to say something.

Suddenly, she saw a group of people coming down from upstairs, led by Zhu Cong, with Zhu Rui following behind, a face full of anger.

Everyone looked imposing, as if they were here for revenge.

"Husband! Don’t!"

Bai Xue knew what Zhu Cong intended and hurried to stop him.

"Get out!"

Zhu Cong kicked Bai Xue aside, coldly looking at Li Qingyan and said, "Bitch, was it you who hit my son?"

"Dad, why did you hit Mom?"

Zhu Fu helped his mother up and shouted at Zhu Cong.

"You little brat, do you want to go live with that ugly monster?" Zhu Cong looked at Zhu Fu and said, "Either you come over here now, or all your cards will be frozen; you’ll fend for yourself."

"Zhu Fu, don’t mind me; just go to them."

Bai Xue knew she couldn’t provide Zhu Fu a life of happiness, so she hoped Zhu Fu would go and not make trouble.

But Zhu Fu held Bai Xue’s hand and said, "Mom, if I abandon you, who in this world would care for you? Zhu Cong, from today, I’m changing my surname, and I’ll take Mom’s last name; I’m Bai Fu now! You think everyone is like Zhu Rui, eager for your dirty money, huh?

Sacrificing money, even abandoning one’s biological mother."

"Great! Very good! You’re gutsy! Immediately freeze all this kid’s cards for me."

Zhu Cong directly ordered.

Zhu Rui sneered, "Idiot, it won’t be long until you come crawling back to dad."

"You don’t need to worry about me; I’ll take care of Mom."

Zhu Fu clenched his teeth and said.

At the age of sixteen, it’s the time for schooling, but between comfort and adventure, he chose adventure, chose his mother.

"Don’t mind that little wretch."

Zhu Cong stopped caring about Zhu Fu and turned to Li Qingyan, saying, "Bitch, you dare to hit my son, now kneel here, let my son hit you back, otherwise, I won’t let you leave Sea City."

"You should be reasonable; it’s your son who spoke harshly, and I slapped him—to teach him a lesson."

Li Qingyan said.

"Reason? I don’t know what reason is; all I know is, the Young Master of the Zhu family is untouchable, not qualified to be hit, and if you do, you’ll face punishment."

Zhu Cong coldly said, "Kneel here, let my son hit you back, and then leave an arm behind."

"Zhu Family Head, aren’t you going too far? Do you really think the Zhu family can cover the skies entirely?"

Li Qingyan said with a frown.

"Hehe, you’re exactly right; elsewhere, I wouldn’t dare say, but in Sea City, dealing with someone like you, no one from the top ten families would interfere."

Zhu Cong said triumphantly.

"Arrogance begets disaster!" Li Qingyan said, "I remember the head of your Zhu family is Old Master Zhu, do your words hold true? Are you really going to offend us?"

Zhu Cong furrowed his brows; he wondered if this woman had some identity, otherwise, how could she buy that little pill?

While pondering.

Suddenly, a voice came from the stairway: "Our Zhu family members are naturally arrogant, what can you do? No matter your status, hitting my little Zhu Young Master is unacceptable, hitting my grandson is unacceptable!"

This voice, although aged, resonated with strength.

Everyone turned to look and saw Old Master Zhu descending from the stairs, surrounded by the core members of the Zhu family.

Seeing Old Master Zhu, Zhu Cong smiled, "Dad, why did you come here? I told you I’d settle this matter. Just a little bitch.

She hit my son, so she must leave an arm."

"An arm is far from enough; our Zhu family is equivalent to the top ten families, my grandson, that’s the little prince of our Zhu family! Hitting him means compensation by life.

Otherwise, such things will continue happening."

Old Master Zhu coldly said.

Everyone was taken aback, even those dining in the restaurant were dumbfounded; the Zhu Family Head was already domineering, but this Old Master Zhu was even more so—resorting to killing, truly ruthless.
