Otherworldly Singer: Pure-hearted Wolves and Fiery Love

"what!"

Zhou Lin screamed, her eyes filled with despair.

Zhou Jinrui, who was still kneeling and pleading, turned around and saw that his younger sister, Zhou Lin, had been crippled by their own father.

"Hmph." Old Master Zhou sneered, "In this family, nothing can be accomplished without rules."

“She made a mistake, so naturally she has to bear the consequences. Today it’s a top-tier song, tomorrow it will cost the Zhou family all the resources they’ve worked so hard to accumulate. She’s so stupid, it’s better to just cripple her.”

"She can have mountains of gold and silver, anything she wants. Even if she's a cripple, our Zhou family can support her for life!"

"But she's stubborn and deserves to be punished!"

Grandpa Zhou was really angry.

Both he and Zhou Mian were heads of their families. To be a good head of a family, one naturally needs to understand the rise and fall of other families.

“In the past, it wasn’t just the four major families.”

Old Master Zhou snorted: "There used to be many families even more powerful than the Qin family today."

"But without exception, they all disappeared."

"Because of what?"

"Because they're stupid!"

"Because they are selfish!"

"Those who are ungrateful and treacherous will not be able to sustain their family's legacy for long!"

Grandpa Zhou slowly walked up to Zhou Lin.

Looking down at his granddaughter, whose eyes had lost their luster.

Thinking of Zhou Lin stealing Zhou Qiqi's sheet music, I felt angry at her for not standing up for herself.

It's not that the old man doesn't love his granddaughter, but the Zhou family isn't some insignificant household! If rules aren't established, how can such a large family be managed?!

"If you were born into an ordinary family, and you stole all your family's savings and property certificate and gave them to someone else, you'd be beaten to death!"

"If you were born into an ordinary family, would you despise the person who saved your father's life, or the orphan left behind by a gloriously sacrificed soldier?"

"Everyone will tear your back apart!"

"You're just born into the Zhou family! Do you really think you're a princess? Then you'd better have the brains, the strategies, and the vision of a princess!"

"Servant? Bah! What kind of era is this! You've truly disgraced the Zhou family!"

Zhou Lin felt her body was cold and devoid of energy.

At that moment, she truly regretted it.

She thought she'd only get a beating at most, but she never expected to actually become disabled. Her family clearly doted on her so much.

Zhou Lin looked around at the figures standing there.

Listen to what Grandpa said.

Suddenly, she recalled the memory of sitting on Zhou Mian's shoulders when he returned from the front lines as a child. She also recalled the various forms of education she had received.

For an instant.

Zhou Lin had a sudden realization.

She was blinded by the security, peace, and prosperity of these past years.

The family has more and more money.

The number of people in the family is increasing.

The house we live in is getting bigger and bigger.

Everywhere she went, people respected her, flattered her like a princess, and tried to pull her into relationships with young men from the four great families.

But think about it carefully.

This is wrong. At the very least, you should have discussed it with your father and the others. Instead of stealing things and giving them away on your own initiative.

Zhou Lin's lips trembled as she said, "I'm sorry, I was wrong."

Hearing her say that.

Everyone immediately recalled Zhou Lin, who was quite obedient when she was a child.

Grandpa Zhou sighed.

He sighed, "Wrong? Too late! Today, Grandpa is going to tell you that some things can't be undone just by admitting your mistakes!"

Grandpa Zhou looked at Meng Lan beside him: "I used to think that you two had a good relationship and could be together."

"Now it seems that Zhou Lin is not good enough for you."

"Meng Lan, let me ask you a question honestly: are you still willing to continue living with Zhou Lin?"

Meng Lan looked at Zhou Lin on the ground, her heart filled with complex emotions.

He still had feelings for Zhou Lin.

They had lived together since childhood and knew for certain that they were engaged.

He doesn't have any other girls he likes.

How could Meng Lan not have genuine feelings for Zhou Lin?

But Zhou Lin has broken his heart in recent years.

The two became estranged.

Meng Lan lowered her head and said, "Grandpa, I am willing to live like this."

"Good, good." Grandpa Zhou was very pleased. "You really are a good child."

Butler Wu shook his head slightly and winked at someone next to him.

The man secretly sent the information about what happened here to Uncle Wu.

"what?!"

Uncle Wu, who was at the academy, was immediately astonished.

The end of class was fast approaching.

Uncle Wu hesitated for a moment, then quickly took Zhou Qiqi to a quiet place to talk about what had happened at home.

Zhou Qiqi's brain almost shut down: "Huh? You took the manuscript I lost? Zhou Lin stole it again? Now she... is ruined?"

Uncle Wu sighed heavily: "Yes."

Zhou Qiqi was extremely surprised: "Fourth Sister has really been crippled?!"
