Zhou Yunqi lowered her head and adjusted the hem of her skirt, not taking Bai Zhi's almost hysterical words to heart at all.

Until her death in her previous life, Bai Zhi had never changed her feelings towards other members of the Zhou family except herself. She was not her mother, and she could not understand Zhou Tonglin's remarriage from her perspective.

But at the same time, she would not indulge her mother in causing any substantial harm to her father and sister.

Now the entire Bai family is in a state of decline. If I hadn't given them some of my business, I'm afraid they would have been insolvent long ago.

Therefore, Zhou Yunqi is fully capable of preventing Bai Zhi from taking action against Zhou Niantang easily.

"Mom, you're venting your emotions in front of me. I won't argue with you because I'm used to it."

She took a few steps forward, pulled Bai Rongshu away from her, and continued, "But my last name is Zhou, not Bai, so don't let anyone outside hear this. Otherwise, they won't let the Bai family have some business for the sake of the Zhou family."

Her words were a naked threat, but Bai Zhi had no way of refutating it!

She was also a smart person and knew that she couldn't make Zhou Yunqi angry. After all, she still had a lot of things to do with her in the future.

But as a mother, she would definitely not feel good being threatened by her own daughter, and she could only continue to save her face with words.

"I'm asking you to at least treat Rong Shu as your own sister, and stop threatening or hitting her!"

But Zhou Yunqi wouldn't fall for it. When Bai Rongshu was a teenager, he often quarreled with Zhou Niantang. But in her opinion, it was just a conflict between children at that time, which had not escalated to the level of today where people's lives were threatened, so she didn't care too much about it.

Now that she is in her twenties and still dares to do this, Zhou Yunqi has to teach her a lesson so that she will never dare to have any bad thoughts towards Zhou Niantang again.

"Sister? When did she become my sister?"

Zhou Yunqi turned around and winked at the bodyguard behind her, who grabbed Bai Rongshu's hand again and pulled her out the door.

Bai Rongshu struggled and shouted, "Aunt, save me! She's crazy! She's crazy!"

"Let go of your sister, what do you want to do?"

Bai Zhi was anxious to pull Bai Rongshu away, but was stopped by Zhou Yunqi, "Mom, if you really want her to be well, don't spoil her. Don't let her cause any trouble for the Bai family in the future. It will be too late to regret it."

After saying that, he no longer cared about how Bai Zhi was shouting and making a fuss behind him, and directly took a group of people, including Bai Rongshuo, and left the Bai family.

When Zhou Niantang woke up the next day, she saw that Zhou Yunqi had replied to her message in the middle of the night, saying that she knew, and then told her to take good care of her health, but didn't say anything to her regarding this matter.

His sister has always been very capable, and Zhou Niantang knew that she must have something in mind.

During the convalescence period, Ji Shen and Xie Xiaotang would come almost every day.

Even Luo Ze, who was busy with work at the research institute, would occasionally take time to come and visit, but he always came with Yun Zhi.

Fortunately, this drowning did not cause pneumonia, so she went home after staying in the hospital for four or five days.

After returning home, Zhou Yunqi saw that she was in good condition, so she told her everything that happened that day she fell into the water.

It was someone arranged by Bai Rongshu, but initially it was not to promote himself, but to promote Yun Zhi.

She just happened to pass by at that time and was mistaken for someone else by the person who committed the attack.

Zhou Niantang felt a little scared when he heard this.

Although drowning is not a pleasant experience, she was helping Yun Zhi avoid disaster, especially at the banquet held by the Zhou family. If Yun Zhi really fell into the water, it would be Zhou Yunqi's fault. . .

"As for Rong Shu, I have already taught her a lesson. She won't dare to do that again." Zhou Yunqi assured her.

Zhou Niantang nodded. It was indeed necessary to make Bai Rongshu suffer a little, otherwise if he continued to behave in this perverse way, he would sooner or later get into trouble.

If she only caused trouble for the Bai family, it would have nothing to do with her, but she was afraid that it would implicate her sister.

Zhou Niantang had just been discharged from the hospital and was not in a hurry to go to the flower shop. He rested at home for two more days before going.

However, her sleep has been affected recently. She often dreams in the middle of the night about the feeling of drowning, especially Pei Shi on the shore who looked at her with cold eyes but did not offer any help.

At this point, Pei Shi had another impression in her mind, that is, this person was completely inhumane.

And she thought of another thing. No wonder such a cold-hearted person was the one who destroyed the Zhou family's Tianliang King just for a word in the original book.

It’s better to stay away from people like this in the future, she thought.

Anyway, I failed to please him when he was young and needed it the most. Now that he has become successful, there is no need to try to please him.

What's more, Pei Shi's reaction last night was that he didn't even bother to help. Did she really expect to get his forgiveness for the past?

It would be more reliable to get along better with Yun Zhi.

For example, wasn't it Yun Zhi who saved her this time? If it weren't for Yun Zhi, she would have died that night.

Thinking of this, she immediately made an appointment with Yun Zhi to treat her to a meal to express her gratitude.

At night, Zhou Niantang closed the store early and asked the driver to take her to wait for her near Yunzhi Company.

She didn't dare ask the driver to park the car too close, for fear of meeting Pei Shi.

She didn't know why, but ever since the day she fell into the water, she had been particularly resistant to this person. Unlike the fear she had at the beginning, now she was either afraid or resistant.

After waiting for nearly half an hour, Yun Zhi finally got on the bus.

"I'm sorry, my supervisor suddenly had a small meeting before leaving get off work." Yun Zhi said apologetically after getting in the car.

Zhou Niantang helped her put her bag away: "It's okay, I just arrived not long ago." Then he asked her: "Are you busy recently?"

"It's OK, but our supervisor is a bit stubborn. He has to revise a plan hundreds of times, which is unbearable for everyone."

Zhou Niantang knew that the supervisor she was referring to was the tutor from that year, He Jun.

However, they didn't spend much time together at that time, so she didn't know that He Jun was such a perfectionist.

They found a hot pot restaurant to eat. Zhou Niantang had just been discharged from the hospital, so he could only eat the tomato hot pot. While eating, he complained: "The soup base of this restaurant is just average. The one you made last time is still better."

Yun Zhi glanced at the information on her phone on the table, then put the meat she had prepared into Zhou Niantang's bowl, "After I finish this, I still have a few days of annual leave, and then I can cook it myself at home."

Yunzhi now has a reliable nanny to take care of Xiaoqi. In addition to work every day, she also has some time to do what she likes.

Her way of relieving stress is cooking.

Zhou Niantang was particularly supportive of her hobby, because whenever Yun Zhi cooked something delicious, she would invite her to come over to eat.

During the meal, Yun Zhi looked at her phone frequently, and later on, her mood visibly dropped.

Zhou Niantang asked with concern: "Is there something important?"

"Nothing." Yun Zhi took her eyes off the phone and lowered her head to eat the food in the bowl.

After a while, she asked Zhou Niantang: "If there is a man who always acts like he likes you but never says he likes you, is it because we are too self-righteous and think too much, or is there something else?"
