328 Elder Zhou’s Thoughts

It seemed that among the four of them, only she, the soft persimmon, was easier to bully. Thinking of this, perhaps to save his face just now, he could only target Gu Man again.

“Young lady, I advise you to return to the right path early while you’re still young. Don’t neglect your job. If your business ability is passable, I have a sales position for you to choose from, but don’t think of those crooked ways.”

He thought highly of himself and persuaded her as an elder because he thought that Old Master Cui’s relationship with Gu Man was not simple. Although he was mocking Gu Man, he was actually mocking Old Master Cui more, trying to regain the face he had lost just now.

However, he did not know that this had touched the anger of others.

“Zhou Ping, if I don’t get angry, you really think that I don’t exist?”

Old Cui slowly said these words. Even a fool could hear the suppressed anger in his words.

However, Elder Zhou still did not care. He thought that she was just a little girl. Even if Old Master Cui cared, he would still care about his face and not want this matter to be made public.

In Elder Zhou’s heart, he had long determined that Old Master Cui was just enjoying the appearance of a young and beautiful woman, so he looked for Gu Man. After all, he knew that Old Master Cui did not have any daughters or granddaughters.

At most, he would threaten him with two or three sentences. Moreover, he could belittle Old Master Cui and regain his dignity.

Thinking of the embarrassing incident at the auction and Xiang Yin’s cold gaze just now, Elder Zhou immediately understood that Old Master Cui must have badmouthed him in front of Xiang Yin during the auction, which was why Xiang Yin’s attitude towards him was so cold.

At the thought of this, Elder Zhou despised Old Master Cui even more. He was already so old, but he was still playing such a small trick behind his back. However, he did not expect it to really work.

Therefore, Elder Zhou could only constantly belittle Old Master Cui in an attempt to make Xiang Yin recognize Old Master Cui’s true colors and doubt his despicable actions.

Although the four great families had always been at the same rank in the eyes of outsiders, in recent years, because of Xiang Yin’s appearance, the Xiang Family had vaguely occupied the top position of the four great families.

In recent years, perhaps because Old Master Cui was old, he had handed most of his family’s company to Cui Hong. Unfortunately, Cui Hong’s ability was only average and there was nothing exceptional.

The Cui Family had been stagnant for the past few years, which made Elder Zhou want to use the Cui Family to rise.

“Old Master Cui, I’m at least more honest than you. I won’t speak ill of others behind their backs.”

As he spoke, Elder Zhou looked at Xiang Yin’s position, as if to prove himself.

Seeing this scene, Gu Man could not help but find it funny. Elder Zhou was like a woman fighting for favor. His thoughts were obvious, but he still wanted to pretend to be innocent.

Gu Man indeed laughed, and this smile successfully attracted Elder Zhou’s anger.

“Little girl, don’t be ungrateful. I was kind enough to find a job for you, but you’re still smiling at the side. You’re really shameless!”

Old Master Cui and Xiang Yin’s anger was ignited by Elder Zhou’s words. Just as they were about to speak, Gu Man beat them to it.

Actually, Gu Man did not care about these slanders anymore, but they were already in front of her. She was not a pushover, so she naturally would not let it slip.

“I’m laughing at how mediocre the Zhou Family, one of the four great families, is. It’s fine if you can’t see clearly, but even your brain seems to be a little crazy. You should go to the hospital for a checkup as soon as possible. Don’t regret it when you’re plagued by illness.”

Gu Man had a certain basis for saying this. Perhaps Elder Zhou had done too many evil things a few years earlier and it accumulated, so at this age, there was often a black fog lingering above his head and he was filled with resentment. It was obvious that his hands were covered in unclean things.

Although the four great families had more or less dirty hands to be able to stand in their current positions, it was really rare for the black fog to reach the level of Elder Zhou.

In fact, the black fog had already wrapped around his limbs and had already affected his body. It would not be long before a physical illness was detected.

And this illness did not look easy to treat.
