Otherworldly Singer: Pure-hearted Wolves and Fiery Love
Chapter 62 Xiao Xinghe's Secret Night Raid
Zhou Qiqi saw through the meaningful looks in Uncle Wu's and the others' eyes.
"Tch, it will take the Zhou family several years to become powerful. If they were to become emperor, wouldn't I have to make sacrifices? After all, red-rank singers are all assigned jobs... Besides, I am from the third branch. Even if Zhou Mian or Zhou Qiyuan are supported and made powerful... no matter how much they like me, they won't treat me like a real princess. How long have we known each other? It hasn't even been a month since we met."
“What I’ve done now is more than enough. Why should I be expected to completely dedicate myself to the Zhou family? Have you ever taken responsibility for Zhou Qiqi? If you had found Zhou Qiqi wandering outside, you would have brought her back to the Zhou family sooner. I would have definitely repaid my family in kind.”
In fact, Zhou Jiaming knew that Zhou Laosan was having affairs and might have illegitimate children, but they never dealt with this matter.
The elders seemed to treat her very well, giving her bank cards and such.
In fact, he didn't care about Zhou Qiqi at all, didn't care about her musical pursuits, and didn't introduce her to the music teacher his family had.
It's not hard to see that the Zhou family is still wary of Zhou Qiqi.
When Zhou Qiqi learned from the head of the family that someone was imitating the songs of the Zhi family's singers.
Zhou Qiqi is willing to make a bet.
The Zhou family must have secretly arranged for people to thoroughly study Zhou Qiqi's songs long ago.
"Hmph, do you really think I'm stupid? You think I can just believe whatever you say? Do you expect me to tell you everything? Do you ever consult me on anything?"
"You want me to elevate the Zhou family? Heh..."
Although the country is now managed by a group of colleagues under the top leader, and the power seems to be dispersed, it is at least stable and orderly, since everyone is earning military merits for themselves.
But once power is concentrated, if the Zhou family succeeds, then everyone below will become subjects, working only for the Zhou family, and then chaos will definitely break out in the country!
If Zhou Qiqi were to directly support the Zhou family and grow powerful, and if the Zhou family gained power and disliked her, they could easily dispose of her. After all, with 300 Red-Rank Singers, the death of Zhou Qiqi wouldn't affect the overall situation!
After witnessing the crippling of Zhou Lin, Zhou Qiqi gained a clear understanding of her uncle, this ruthless man. He was definitely a wolf in sheep's clothing, willing to sacrifice many unnecessary things for power.
"Zhou Lin... she's clearly the head of the family's daughter, how could she be so spoiled and foolish? And her fiancé... and then there's her grooming of her niece Zhou Wenxin to be a strong woman, preventing her from getting married or helping her find a blind date. It feels more like..."
Zhou Mian is preparing his son to inherit the family business.
If Zhou Lin were a little less intelligent, her daughter could be better controlled and less likely to betray the family, and she could also be paired with a pawn she had her eye on. The same goes for her niece; Zhou Wenxin, despite being a powerful businesswoman, is entirely dedicated to the Zhou family's business.
"He says he's very good to Zhou Laosan, but isn't this uncle actually keeping his younger brother Chengcai at bay? If he really likes his brother, he should extend that love to his son and daughter and help them find good jobs in the family as soon as possible."
However, Zhou Mian not only did not make Zhou Qiyuan a general in the military, but only put that kid into the law enforcement bureau; he also did not allow Zhou Qiqi to provide the social, common sense, and friend gatherings that the Zhou family should provide for their children after she demonstrated her value.
Zhou Qiqi packed her things and told Uncle Wu and the female guard to go out and keep watch.
She happily went to take a bath.
Sitting in the bathtub, Zhou Qiqi touched the bath bubbles on her hands, a smile on her face.
"Hmph~ Let you two play the dogfight all you want. Now, I need to work on improving my own strength."
"You think I'm stupid? No, I'm just planning my own escape route."
The original owner of this body didn't have any deep emotional ties with the Zhou family. So, after taking over everything here, all she needed to do was enjoy life to the fullest, and have enough time to do so.
"I wonder if I'll become invincible once I collect a hundred songs and increase my energy to over 8000?"
"Only a foolish woman would be a pushover, supporting others to grow stronger. The current balance of power is the best... They don't dare abandon me, they don't dare offend me. And I can lie down comfortably."
Completely incorporating the Zhou family into her household actually meant supporting members of the Zhou family she didn't know. If Zhou Laosan were still alive, she might consider expanding and strengthening the family, but now... hmph.
As for joining the national team? Don't be ridiculous. Once she's in, she'll be a corporate slave. They don't keep idle people there. Every now and then, they'll definitely use the organization's name to ask her to quell the restless energy of a certain number of soldiers, or to complete certain tasks, and so on.
"I, Zhou Qiqi, am here to enjoy life, not to be treated like a beast of burden."
Zhou Qiqi tilted her head back and rolled her eyes.
"Only foolish women would think of endless sacrifice, trying to conquer others and gain their approval through their so-called 'charm'."
"I don't need to conquer others, I just need to survive, and live a wonderful life. I can play with the men I fancy and enjoy a rich and carefree life!"
Strange noises came from inside the house.
After Zhou Qiqi's energy increased, her hearing became extremely sensitive.
"Who?!"
She got up from the bathtub, put on her bathrobe, picked up the toilet plunger, and opened the door a crack.
"it's me."
The voice that came from outside the door was Xiao Xinghe's low, magnetic voice.
