The matriarch has returned; that spendthrift son is truly daring!

The Zhou family was quite surprised by how much the three valued Song Shuyue. Who was this girl? They had never seen her before.

Zhou Yangjun turned around and saw a girl wearing a white retro top with exquisite patterns embroidered on it. She had her hair tied in a full bun, and had a pair of clear and bright eyes, a delicate and petite nose. She was incredibly beautiful, with an aura that was both icy and noble.

Zhou Yangjun stared blankly at the girl who was walking towards him. His heart was pounding as loudly as the sound of her shoes hitting the floor. He completely forgot his resentment at being subdued and the purpose of his visit.

Seeing Zhou Yangjun staring intently at the girl, Mr. Zhou gestured to his father to tone it down a bit. The girl was indeed quite pretty.

"Old Song, who is this?"

Song Gao explained, "She is my sister's daughter, my niece, Song Shuyue."

"This girl is really beautiful. How old is she?"

Song Gao: "I'm eighteen now, and I just started university this year."

Song Shuyue, a name that Zhou Yangjun kept firmly in his heart, was Song Yanzhou's younger sister.

"I'm sorry, I'm no match for you and I didn't know my own limitations. Song Yanzhou, I apologize to you. Whatever compensation you need, my Zhou family will do our best to provide it."

Zhou Yangjun's tone was much more sincere than before. The sudden change in attitude surprised even Zhou's father. This kid... suddenly realized something?

Song Yanzhou stated bluntly, "Then I want 10 percent of your businesses in the west."

“Okay.” Zhou Yangjun agreed without hesitation, which shocked everyone, especially Song Yanzhou. He was stunned for a few seconds, not expecting Zhou Yangjun to agree so quickly. That was 10%, not just a little bit.

What exactly is this person planning?

Mr. Zhou and his father stared wide-eyed, almost unable to catch their breath. What a spendthrift son!

This isn't how you compensate people, but now that the words have been spoken, what can you do?

Song Shuyue sat quietly in the chair. Song Haojin was very grateful for her reminder last time. "Yueyue, don't go back. Stay for dinner tonight. That kid Song Zixuan has been giving you a lot of trouble, hasn't he?"

"Okay." Song Shuyue nodded in agreement. Judging from his expression, he must have something to tell him.

Zhou Yangjun's gaze kept falling on Song Shuyue. When Song Shuyue looked up and met his eyes, Zhou Yangjun would quickly look away. This man had a naturally wealthy appearance, but his skills were a bit lacking.

"Zhou Yangjun, did you hear what I said? I said 10%!" Song Yanzhou thought he hadn't heard clearly and repeated himself.

Zhou Yangjun: "A promise is a promise. I was in the wrong first, and this compensation is what I should give you. I hope we can get along peacefully in the future."

Song Yanzhou frowned and carefully examined the man from head to toe. Had he lost his mind? Didn't he once say that he was irreconcilable with him and would never cooperate?

"Now that we've talked things out, we're all friends," Song Gao said with a smile.

Zhou Yangjun smiled and said, "Can we stay for dinner?"

Everyone: "..."

Mr. Zhou and his father were so ashamed they wanted to hide their faces in the ground. Song Gao laughed heartily, "Of course, of course, we couldn't be happier."

Mr. Zhou couldn't bear the embarrassment. "Uncle Song, my son is ignorant, please don't mind him." As he spoke, he pulled on Mr. Song's arm and gestured for him to stop.

Although Zhou Yangjun also wanted to stay, he knew that his actions were inappropriate. Since they were all in the same place, he believed that they would definitely meet again.

Song Shuyue!

After the Zhou family left, Song Yanzhou asked Song Shuyue curiously, "He agreed too quickly, making me wonder if I said something wrong."

Song Shuyue: "Maybe this person really wants to make amends!"

Song Yanzhou shook his head and denied it, saying, "Impossible. I've dealt with him for so many years, and he would never really want to compensate me. But why did he agree so quickly? I think it must be related to his father."

Zhou Yangjun is quite filial.

"Maybe so, as long as we achieve our goal, that's fine."

"Yes, I still need to be a little cautious."

**

On the way home, Zhou's father was furious. He slapped his spendthrift son on the head and yelled, "You brat, that's ten percent! Do you even know what that means? You agreed without even thinking about it!"

Zhou Yangjun dodged her father's fist. "Dad, it was my fault to begin with. If I didn't admit it, you were unhappy. Now that I've admitted it, you're still unhappy. I really don't know what you're thinking!"

Mr. Zhou was furious and enraged. “I admitted my mistake, made you apologize and make compensation, but I didn’t ask you to agree to 10% of the business all at once. Do you know how much of a loss this is for our Zhou family? Zhou Yangjun, I usually think you’re quite smart, but you’re so muddle-headed at a critical moment.”

Mr. Zhou shook his head repeatedly, saying helplessly, "I think this kid has ulterior motives."

Upon hearing this, Zhou's father stared at Zhou Yangjun and said, "I also think you're up to something. I'm warning you, let's just let this matter go this time. Don't make the same mistake again, and don't provoke them. Just stay home and behave yourself. If I find out you're doing something sneaky and secretly taking revenge on them, you're finished!"

Zhou Yangjun's eyes darted away, the girl's voice and smile flashing through his mind. How could there be such a beautiful girl? He was instantly smitten.

"Dad, do you think I'm that kind of person? Didn't you say you hoped I would cooperate with Song Yanzhou? Isn't cooperating with someone about showing goodwill?"

Zhou's father warned, "You'd better think of it that way."

Zhou Yangjun scratched his head, looked at his father cautiously, and said, "Dad, you see, I'm not getting any younger. I think I can consider the marriage you mentioned before."

Zhou's father lifted his eyelids and looked at him in astonishment. What kind of evil spirit had possessed this kid today?

"Didn't you say before that you looked down on arranged marriages and wanted to pursue love?"

Zhou Yangjun smiled and put his arm around his father's shoulder. "Dad, times have changed. I've figured it out now. For a family like ours, a marriage alliance is a win-win situation. It can expand our business and make our joint ventures more stable. So I think your suggestion is good."

"Not bad? You brat, which of the girls they picked for you last time didn't suit you? With your personality, it's a miracle that anyone even likes you. You're so picky, always saying they're ugly or unattractive. You need to change your ways."

Zhou Yangjun lowered his head somewhat embarrassedly and said softly, "Dad, you're right to reprimand me, so could you talk to the Song family about a marriage alliance with them?"
