Pei Shizhou didn't take Pei Feng to heart. Pei Feng must have come to see him for his family. These things were irrelevant to him. Pei Shizhou stared at the watch in his hand.

As soon as Xia Yichu got out of school, he called her. The two talked for a while, and then Pei Shizhou ate dinner and went upstairs to rest.

Zhou Wenbin didn't go anywhere. He sat in the living room waiting for Pei Feng. The housekeeper, Lin Qiujuan, was washing dishes. The two elderly people in the Zhou family hadn't returned yet.

Not long after, the doorbell rang. Zhou Wenbin got up to open the door, and Pei Feng stood outside, looking haggard.

"Big Brother"

Seeing that it was Zhou Wenbin who opened the door, Pei Feng suppressed the urge to run away and put on a fawning smile.

Zhou Wenbin didn't intend to let Pei Feng in. After he went out, he closed the door and stood outside talking to him.

"Pei Feng, I told you not to call me big brother, you don't deserve it."

Pei Feng's face stiffened, and he forced a smile, saying, "I need to speak with Shi Zhou."

He had just gone to Pei Shizhou's company and home, and even searched the Xia family's place, but Pei Shizhou wasn't there. Then he remembered that the people at the hospital said Pei Shizhou had hand surgery yesterday, and figured he should be at the Zhou family's house by now.

Pei Feng didn't care whether Pei Shizhou's surgery was successful or not; he had already been discharged from the army. Even if the surgery was successful, so what? He couldn't go back to the army anyway, and besides, Pei Shizhou was now running a successful business.

Unfortunately, he couldn't benefit from any of it. Every time someone praised Pei Shizhou in front of him, he thought, why couldn't it be his youngest son?

Born to the same father, why is Pei Zongyu so different? He couldn't even get into university, he doesn't study, and he doesn't work. Pei Feng couldn't think about it too much; it made him feel heartbroken.

"Ah Zhou just had hand surgery yesterday, he needs to rest. You can talk to me if you need anything."

Pei Feng looked embarrassed. His elder brother and three nephews were all at the police station, as were his wife and children. He couldn't care less about that. He wanted to ask Pei Shizhou for money to compensate Li Guangyuan, and he also wanted him to find someone to get his family out of jail.

His two older brothers' families were waiting for him, but Li Guangyuan refused to see him. He had truly run out of options, which was why he came to the Zhou family.

"Shi Zhou's two uncles and three cousins ​​are in the police station. I want Shi Zhou to help get them out."

After Pei Feng finished speaking, he couldn't help but stare at Zhou Wenbin, and sure enough, he saw his face darken.

"Pei Feng, you didn't even ask about A-Zhou's surgery. How can you be a father like that?"

"Brother, it's not like that. I was just too anxious. I... I just asked at the hospital, and the nurse said his surgery was very successful."

Actually, the nurse knew he was Pei Shizhou's father and specifically told him that.

"Yes, you're anxious. You're anxious about your family. You're anxious about your other son and daughter, but you're not anxious about A-Zhou. Go away! Don't come looking for A-Zhou again. He doesn't need you as his father."

Having a father like that is worse than not having one at all! Fortunately, A-Zhou has grown up and is doing well, far surpassing Pei Zongna and Pei Zongyu.

"Big brother, please let me explain, I..."

"Pei Feng, I already know what your daughter did. If you continue to pester me, and keep coming to our house to find A-Zhou, I won't mind getting involved in Pei Zongna's affairs. You know my character, and you don't want to be separated from your wife and children in middle age, do you?"

Zhou Wenbin stared at Pei Feng with a sinister look, reminding Pei Feng of his parents' first visit to Kyoto with their three nephews. Pei Feng's parents had made things difficult for Zhou Wenhui, a situation witnessed by Zhou Wenbin, who had come to see Zhou Wenhui.

Later, his parents had diarrhea for a whole week, eating the same food, while he and Zhou Wenhui were fine. Zhou Wenbin was a doctor, and his parents immediately suspected him.

They even made a scene, insisting that Zhou Wenbin had harmed them, and, unwilling to give up, they reported it to the police. After investigating, the police eventually found out that the couple had bought the meat themselves, because they couldn't bear to give it to Zhou Wenhui and kept it for themselves to eat slowly.

In the sweltering summer heat, the meat was hidden away, and eating it caused diarrhea. As for why the three children were unaffected, the doctor explained that children have strong digestive systems.

After the matter was investigated, Zhou Wenbin sued Pei Feng's parents, alleging that they fabricated facts and charging them with defamation, extortion, and damage to reputation.

During those days, Pei Feng's parents went to the hospital to cause trouble, openly demanding money from Zhou Wenbin. Hospital colleagues could testify to this. With conclusive evidence and witnesses, Zhou Wenbin ultimately sent Pei Feng's parents to prison for three years, and no amount of pleading could change their minds.

Pei Feng was terrified by Zhou Wenbin's words, his face turning deathly pale, and his legs trembling uncontrollably. He opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a single word. He knew Zhou Wenbin's capabilities all too well; if he really angered him, the Pei family would be in deep trouble.

"I...I'm leaving." Pei Feng lowered his head, his voice trembling, and turned to leave.

"Remember what I said."

On the surface, Zhou Wenbin appears refined and easy to talk to. But after knowing him for so many years, only Pei Feng knows that Zhou Wenbin is a deep and calculating man, fiercely protective of his own, and more ruthless than anyone else.

Pei Feng felt terrified every time he met his eyes. A chill ran down his spine as he thought about what he had done to Zhou Wenhui, and he quickened his pace.

"A-Zhou, we can use some underhanded methods to deal with a villain like Pei Feng."

Zhou Wenbin went upstairs and saw Pei Shizhou standing in front of the window, staring blankly at Pei Feng's departing figure.

"Uncle, do you think there's a possibility that I'm not Pei Feng's son?"

Pei Shizhou looks more like a member of the Zhou family, and he can't be said to look completely different from Pei Feng; if you look closely, their face shape and nose are somewhat similar. He's very good-looking, inheriting the best features from both his parents.

"What? You want to be Xia Guohua's son? If that happens, you won't be able to be with Xiao Chu."

That won't do. He'd rather be Pei Feng's son than be with Xia Yichu. Thinking about it that way, Pei Feng isn't entirely without merit.

Zhou Wenbin chuckled when he saw Pei Shizhou deep in thought.

"What are you thinking? Guohua is a gentleman, upright and honest, and he would never do anything to hurt your mother."

But if he could think a little more negatively about people, he wouldn't fall into the same trap twice. Xia Zhiheng was a child Yang Yunxia schemed to have; do you think Xia Zhiqian wasn't one too?

"If it were me, I wouldn't care whether Yang Yunxia was pregnant or not. If she wasn't the woman I liked, I wouldn't marry her even if the King of Heaven himself came to me."

Fortunately, although Xia Guohua's two grandsons never lived with him, their personalities are similar to his, and thankfully, they didn't turn out badly. However, there is one downside: they inherited Xia Guohua's soft heart, which has allowed Yang Yunxia and her family to have them completely under their control for many years.

Pei Shizhou glanced at the smug Zhou Wenbin and said, "Uncle, don't you like Yao Siying? Since you've slept with her, why don't you just marry her?"

If you were to ask Pei Shizhou how he knew Zhou Wenbin liked Yao Siying, it would be because Zhou Wenbin would call her name after drinking. One moment he would scold her, and the next he would say he missed her.

Pei Shizhou felt sorry for his uncle and vowed that he would never follow in his footsteps.

Zhou Wenbin gritted his teeth and said, "Don't mention that heartless woman to me."
