Old Master Zhou gritted his teeth and was about to call over and curse, but he stopped at the last moment.

He was the one who begged the boy to come back, and when he hit him he was scolded and ran away, so he lost more than he gained.

Zhou Zhentian never does business that will lose money.

"Old Wu." Old Master Zhou called out.

Butler Old Wu hurried over: "Master."

"Where's Ajie?"

Old Wu's expression changed slightly, but he still told the truth: "Young Master hasn't returned home all night, and now... he hasn't come back yet."

"You bastard!" Old Master Zhou was furious.

Old Wu lowered his head and dared not speak anymore.

"Didn't I tell him to stay home and reflect on his mistakes for a month? Who let him out?"

Old Wu looked embarrassed: "Master, the young master forced his way out on his own, and the bodyguards couldn't stop him..."

He was not wrong. Everyone knew that the young master of the Zhou family was the apple of the old man's eye. Although the old man had issued a house arrest order, if the young master really wanted to go out, who would dare to stop him?

Even if you can stop him, if he accidentally hurts something, he will complain later and the person who stopped him will be the one who suffers.

Moreover, this is not the first time that the young master has sneaked out after being under house arrest.

In the past, when Mr. Zhou ordered people to bring the young master back, he didn't do anything to him, so everyone turned a blind eye and pretended not to see it.

"You idiot, why are you still standing there? Send someone to find Ajie!" Old Master Zhou got angry.

Old Wu quickly responded and turned around to go out to look for someone.

He almost bumped into someone head-on. Old Wu quickly bowed and said to the other person, "The young lady is back."

"Well, go get busy."

Zhou Kexin walked straight towards Mr. Zhou.

"Dad, who are you angry with? It's not worth it to ruin your health."

Zhou Kexin has a bright and attractive appearance, a pair of almond-shaped eyes and natural charm. In addition, with her noble status as Miss Zhou, she has countless suitors.

But she didn't like any of them, and she was nearly forty years old and still unmarried.

Although she is a woman, she is very ruthless and decisive in her actions. She is currently serving as the deputy general manager of Zhou Group and is Mr. Zhou's right-hand man.

In the Zhou Group, she can be said to be second to none.

When Mr. Zhou saw his daughter coming, his expression softened a bit, but he was still angry and cursed, "It's all because of that good-for-nothing nephew of yours. He went off to make trouble again last night and didn't come back all night. What a shame."

"Dad, Ajie is an adult now. It's not a big deal if he doesn't come home for one night. He knows what to do." Zhou Kexin comforted with a smile.

"What sense does he have? Last time, he got into a fight with someone in a bar over a shabby guy. If you hadn't discovered it early and asked the PR department to handle it immediately, he would have brought shame to the Zhou family. It really pissed me off."

Mr. Zhou was so angry that his chest heaved violently.

Zhou Kexin disagreed.

The reason why Zhou Junjie dares to act so recklessly is that he has been spoiled by his grandfather since he was a child!

But she looked worried and said, "Dad, don't be angry. Ajie also knows that he is wrong. He will never do this again."

Zhou Kexin raised his hand and gently stroked the old man's chest to help him calm down.

Mr. Zhou's expression softened a bit, and he asked, "Why are you not in the company at this time? Why did you come back suddenly?"

Zhou Kexin is a strong woman who wishes she could work in the company 24 hours a day and rarely goes home so early.

"Oh, my stomach feels a little uncomfortable today. Maybe I ate something wrong."

"Are you okay? Do you want to call the family doctor to check it out?" Mr. Zhou still cares a lot about his daughter.

"I should be fine after I lie down and rest for a while." Zhou Kexin glanced at Old Man Zhou and asked casually, "Dad, I heard Jin Fan is back?"

"You are well-informed." Old Master Zhou snorted.

"I also heard from the people below that it seems that Assistant Wen has also been sent to Haicheng?"

"Well, I asked him to help Jin Fan handle the business in Haicheng. After all, this kid just took over, and it will be easier to carry out the work with the help of an acquaintance."

"Then he... is only responsible for the affairs in Haicheng and won't come back to Kyoto?" Zhou Kexin asked again.

This was the purpose of her special trip back home.

She had to find out how Mr. Zhou wanted to arrange Zhou Jinfan's position and work.

She has worked so hard in Zhou Group for so many years, not just for the position of deputy general manager.

What she really wants is to sit in the position of the superior.

"Why are you suddenly concerned about that boy?" Mr. Zhou looked at his daughter with suspicion.

Zhou Kexin immediately realized that he had acted too hastily and hurriedly explained, "Dad, didn't you say that when Jin Fan comes back this time, we must treat him well and convince him never to leave again? I just want him to feel at ease staying at Zhou's."

"Hmph, no matter how well we treat him, he's still an ungrateful person who can never be tamed." Old Master Zhou snorted coldly, his face showing disdain.

Zhou Kexin was secretly happy.

She asked why the old man suddenly paid attention to his eldest brother's house. You know, in the old man's heart, the one he really loved was Zhou Junjie, the son left by his second brother.

The eldest brother's house includes the eldest brother and his wife, but the old man has never asked a single question about them.

Zhou Kexin comforted him: "Dad, Jin Fan just returned to China after all, and he wasn't close to us before. It's normal to feel a little strange at first."

Old Master Zhou sighed, "If Junjie had been more motivated, I wouldn't have asked him to come back to work at Zhou Corporation. I'm getting older, and it's time to plan for the future."

Zhou Kexin's heart skipped a beat.

That's what she was worried about.

Although Mr. Zhou valued her, his deep-rooted patriarchal mentality made him never think of handing the Zhou Group over to her.

Just because she is a daughter and will get married sooner or later, the shares she holds are not as many as those held by that young boy Junjie.

So unfair.

Mr. Zhou didn't notice his daughter's ugly expression. He pulled out a document from the bookshelf behind him and handed it to her.

"Look at this."

Zhou Kexin opened the file and was stunned when he saw Zhou Jinfan’s personal information.

"I specifically had someone check his background. He's actually of my Zhou family blood, and he's naturally well-endowed for business. He holds a doctorate in both medicine and finance. After graduation, he's invested in dozens of projects, each with a return that's more than tenfold. With his current net worth, it's no exaggeration to say he's on the rich list."

"Is he so powerful?" Zhou Kexin felt that Mr. Zhou praised Zhou Jinfan to a higher level, but after carefully reading the information below, she was also shocked.

This person is definitely the ceiling of the investment world!

If such a talent was not a member of the Zhou family, she would definitely spend a lot of money to recruit him into her team.

Zhou Kexin couldn't help but feel a little worried. Once the old man recognized Zhou Jinfan as his heir, she would really have no hope.

"This kid does have a talent for business, but he's a little unruly. Over time, those edges and corners of his body will be smoothed out," said Mr. Zhou again.

Zhou Kexin echoed, "Dad, the person you chose must be right. I also believe in your judgment."

"It's too early to say anything about this. Let's just wait and see."

Zhou Kexin lowered his eyes and looked at the man's portrait on the document, and a strange color flashed in his eyes.

Outside the door, a young man's figure passed by lightly and disappeared in an instant.
