381 The Zhou Family

It was only when the sky was almost completely dark that Zhou Wei appeared, panting.

“My apologies, President Chu, I’m late. I’ve been delayed by some urgent matters.” Zhou Wei wheezed as he ran.

“I have indeed underestimated Zhou Hao,” Chu Ning said softly.

“He’s like a python lying in wait in the dark. Once he makes a move, he won’t give his opponent the slightest chance to catch their breath.” As Zhou Wei spoke, he took out his office key and opened the door.

“Have a seat. I’ll make you a cup of coffee,” Zhou Wei said with a smile.

“What you’ve been through is just the beginning. Chu Ning, the opponents we faced in A City were the entire Province A, even Country Z. How should I put it? You’re too soft-hearted,” Zhou Hao said as he skillfully brewed the coffee.

A moment later, the entire room was filled with a fragrance.

“I can guarantee that Zhou Hao has already gotten most of your information, even your weaknesses, but you know nothing about him. I retreated from A City because I still have a bottom line, but Zhou Hao doesn’t. He’s an animal that would do anything to achieve his goal.”

At this point, Zhou Wei actually laughed.

“This is different from my gentle and somewhat cute big uncle. I even suspect that Zhou Hao is not my uncle’s son. Other than their looks, their personalities were completely different. But it’s not too late for you to ask me about it now. This is just the prelude to Zhou Hao’s attack.” Zhou Wei sniffed the coffee in his cup and was quite satisfied.

“Tell me.” Chu Ning’s fingers tapped rhythmically on the solid wood table.

“He’s just a despicable scoundrel, but he was born into the right family. My Zhou family provided him with a good stage and background for him to use all his means. By the way, in order to achieve his goal, he once… Let me think.”

As Zhou Wei spoke, he suddenly seemed to contemplate something.

“I think he’d just had his 17th birthday. He brought some people with him and used an excavator to bulldoze the house of a family that didn’t agree to the demolition.”

“Oh? What was the result?” Chu Ning’s eyes were filled with shock.

“Don’t tell me you naively thought that there was no one in that house? That family was very stubborn. They simply didn’t agree to the demolition request, which made our old master Zhou very anxious because that area is very important to our Zhou family’s development layout. In order to please the old master, that b****** Zhou Hao buried the family of four alive in the ruins.”

“So, Zhou Hao is still living well outside. He’s not being punished by the law,” Chu Ning said calmly.

“Punished? He was only 17 years old and was not an adult yet. Moreover, he had already done a very clean job at that time. He had shirked all responsibility. How much money could the excavator operator make in his lifetime? Zhou Hao bribed him with 5 million yuan to take the blame. Then, through the Zhou family’s power, his sentence changed from the death sentence to death sentence with reprieve, and then to imprisonment.”

Zhou Wei sipped on the hot coffee and said in a relaxed manner.

“This world is a game for the rich. In places where there’s no light, there’s unimaginable dirt and filth. The family of four had died in vain. Their biggest mistake was to go against the Zhou family. Perhaps they didn’t know how powerful the Zhou family was and were too naive. No one will uphold justice for them — the cost is too high. Besides, they’re already dead,” Zhou Wei continued casually.

“This kind of thing happens a lot. In Zhou Hao’s eyes, an ordinary person’s life is not much more valuable than an ant’s. In order to achieve his goal, he doesn’t care about whether others live or die. After all, M City isn’t big. Compared to Province A and the entire country, it is minuscule. You have to understand that your opponent is a smart and unscrupulous beast in human clothing. You won’t be able to reason with him unless you reach or even surpass the Zhou family’s heights one day.”

Zhou Wei’s words made Chu Ning fall into silence.

Chu Ning understood that Zhou Wei was telling the truth.

She was lucky and unique in this world.

Even so, Chu Ning had experienced several life-and-death situations in the past few months.

It would be too difficult to start from zero.

Chu Ning could only move forward and not retreat.

One step back was a bottomless abyss; she would fall and be smashed into pieces.

As she continued to develop, she had more and more enemies, of greater and greater strength.

“I’ll let him know who has the final say here.” After a moment of silence, Chu Ning said softly.

She had never been afraid of a challenge.
