After rebirth, I want to destroy my original family

Chapter 515: If you have a stepmother, you will have a stepfather

Qin Jingqiu didn't want Zhou Xiaoyao to go with her at first. To be precise, she felt as if she had been bitten by a snake once and was afraid of the well rope for ten years.

Wasn't it the same way back then? When he came, he said he would take her away, but in the end, he made his niece a social terror.

This time he suddenly came back again and wanted to take her away. How could she accept it?

But in the end, Qin Jingqiu was persuaded by Zhou Shihua.

Daughter, after all, is someone else’s daughter.

And this time is different from the last time. This time I'm not picking him up, I'm just taking him for a walk. You have no reason to stop him.

What's more, the Zhou family already had strong objections to Qin Jingqiu's practice of acting as a substitute. It would not be a wise choice to have a conflict at this time.

Then they made an appointment to pick Zhou Xiaoyao back during dinner.

As soon as Zhou Shirong and the others went to the next door, Qin Jingqiu and Wu Ma started to finish cooking in a hurry, making a lot of noise in the kitchen, like a war.

The sun was at its peak at this time, and it was exactly two o'clock in the afternoon.

At half past two, a sumptuous "dinner" was placed on the table, and Qin Jingqiu took off her apron and planned to fetch Zhou Xiaoyao back.

Zhou Shihua looked at the high sun, his mind confused.

"Who has dinner at 2:30 in the afternoon?"

"What's the matter? Isn't it my hostess's turn to decide when to have dinner at our house?"

Zhou Shihua was speechless.

Qin Jingqiu threw her apron on the sofa: "I have always felt that where there is a stepmother, there is a stepfather."

"That's not the case..."

"Why not? Isn't that what the old saying goes? Although I don't like Duan Ying, I have to admire her methods. I have been ignored by this kind of person for several years, and a good person has turned bad."

Zhou Shihua was silent for a moment: "Eldest brother will think that you not only want to control the Zhou family, but also want to control his daughter."

Qin Jingqiu spoke again: "I don't care, and Zhou Yao was borrowed by Gu Ming and I. Although he didn't ask directly before coming here, he mentioned Xiao Yao's father intentionally or unintentionally. You can tell by his business style. , Gu Ming is not a master who is willing to suffer losses."

"..."

After Qin Jingqiu finished speaking, she walked out of the villa and hurried to the next door.

The Zhou family had strong objections to his use of Zhou Shirong's real estate to develop Qin's real estate. At this time, maybe she shouldn't rush to touch Zhou Shirong's brow.

But the woman named Duan Ying always gave her the feeling of a venomous snake. The thought of her niece being taken away by this woman again, even for just a few minutes, made her restless and uneasy.

What's more, she has always believed that it is true that if there is a stepmother, there will be a stepfather.

No matter how good the relationship between the eldest brother and his ex-wife was and how much he loved Zhou Xiaoyao, that happened many years ago.

Having been abroad for so many years, he has been constantly impacted by foreign cultures and values, and with the addition of having a son, his mentality will inevitably not change.

Especially when his daughter is no longer involved in his living habits, it becomes normal to ignore her.

It's natural that you won't get used to the sudden absence of one person in the family, and you won't get used to the sudden increase of one person in the family.

"Brother, I'm here to take Zhou Yao back for dinner."

Qin Jingqiu came to the next door quickly and started shouting before entering the door, quite like Wang Xifeng.

After Zhou Shirong heard this, he turned to look at the blue sky and white sun outside the window, with a hint of confusion on his expression: "It's not even 1 o'clock yet, how can you have dinner so early?"

Qin Jingqiu held Zhou Xiaoyao's hand: "Eating smaller meals more often is good for digestion. Our family eats five meals a day, and dinner is always eaten at this time."

"I want to keep Xiaoyao here for dinner."

"Brother, we have already done it over there."

Zhou Shirong looked at his daughter: "Xiaoyao, do you want to have dinner with your father, or go to your uncle's house?"

Zhou Xiaoyao stood up and said, "Goodbye, dad."

Qin Jingqiu took Zhou Xiaoyao's hand with a smile, and took him away without looking back.

Zhou Xiaoyao's nervousness eased, and he looked up at his aunt: "Dad never told me what the boy's name was."

"Who knows what that bastard is called? It's not important."

"Auntie, you are a bit bad."

Qin Jingqiu looked at Zhou Xiaoyao, feeling a little distressed: "I've always been worried that you would be scared if you followed them."

Zhou Xiaoyao took out his mobile phone and handed it to Qin Jingqiu.

"what?"

"It's from Gu Mingfa."

Qin Jingqiu glanced down. The WeChat messages on it were like writing a diary.

[In the Internet cafe, without eating, Yan Shuangying finished reading and didn’t know what to do. When will you come back? 】

[Still in the Internet cafe, I want to recruit their investment manager, and I have made an appointment to meet. The male manager is the same one who had dinner yesterday. 】

[We’re on the plane. We’ll arrive in about two hours. We’ll talk about it in Jinan later. 】

Zhou Xiaoyao took the phone back and said softly: "No one would be afraid before, but now they are not so afraid."

"No one wanted it before. My aunt wanted it, but she couldn't get it."

"I know, Auntie."

"When you and Gu Ming have a baby, you must love him well."

Qin Jingqiu remembered what her niece said that Gu Ming never wore it, so that didn't mean he had it.

Then the rich ladies went back to the next door together. Looking at the table full of "dinner", they felt like they didn't know how to use their chopsticks.

Zhou Shirong, in his villa, glanced at Duan Ying and his son, then looked at the direction his daughter was leaving, and suddenly became silent.

"What did you say to Zhou Shihua before?"

"Talking about Zhou Shi Real Estate."

"As expected, my sister-in-law is really not a light-hearted person. She probably got angry just after listening to your brother's words, and immediately used our daughter to demonstrate against you."

Zhou Shirong stood in front of the door with his hands in his pockets: "Don't speculate on things without evidence."

Duan Ying chuckled: "This is not groundless speculation. Think about it, isn't it like her occupying Xiaoyao to occupy Zhou Shi Real Estate?"

"After all, she has no children, and she has raised Xiaoyao for so many years."

"I have raised Xiaoyao for many years, but in the end I am not even close to her at all. Being a stepmother is really difficult."

Zhou Shirong said nothing: "Shihua and I have made an appointment to go see my mother together later. You can take your son out to eat tonight."

Duan Ying hummed: "You go ahead. My son and I will wait for you at home after dinner. Don't come back too late."

"understood."

Zhou Shirong changed his clothes, stepped out of the villa, and saw Zhou Shihua waiting at the door.

The two brothers went to Mrs. Zhou's place, but after Mrs. Zhou's condition became serious, she now only remembered Zhou Shihua and not much about Zhou Shirong. When she spoke, she felt like she was not right.

Therefore, the two brothers were still chatting.

Zhou Shihua originally thought that his eldest brother would stay in Shanghai for a few more days, but he did not expect that he would say that he would go back tomorrow.

But according to what he said, after they deal with external matters, they will return their investment goals to the country.

In the context of the economic crisis in Europe and the United States, China has bucked the trend and become the second largest economy in the world. It has the largest market in the world. Many people want to take a bite of this piece of fat.

However, this is still just an idea at present. If it is to be implemented, it will take a period of layout adjustment.

Afterwards, Zhou Shihua asked the servant to wait on the old lady to rest, and the two of them left together.

"Does Xiaoyao hate me? You haven't said a few words to me all day today."

"Yes."

Hearing such a definite answer, Zhou Shirong couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

Zhou Shihua glanced at her: "You abandoned her when she was 1 years old. A few years later, you suddenly came back and said you had found a new mother for him. You, too, had a son. You ignored her. She Isn’t it normal to hate you?”

Zhou Shirong stopped and said, "After Ah Xian passed away, I never knew what to do with myself. I could only focus on business."

"Then have you ever thought about how Xiaoyao will deal with himself?"

"Duan Ying is an education expert and has a minor in psychology. The biggest reason why I married her is that I hope she can help Xiaoyao grow up well."

Zhou Shihua walked forward and stopped: "You left your daughter, who has always been very fragile, in the hands of a woman who suddenly intervened in your family. Is this your original intention?"

Zhou Shirong was silent for a long time: "I still feel very sorry for Xiaoyao."

"Your heartache is that you set up a trust account for her that can never be spent in a lifetime, and let the bank transfer money to her every month. You think that is father's love. Then you and Duan Ying become more and more comfortable, and you even have After having a son, I habitually forgot about her.”

"..."

Zhou Shirong's first wife is named Lin Xian, and the relationship between the two has always been very good.

Lin Xian's unexpected death left him unable to get out. He could only escape from his former home and the familiar environment so that he would no longer miss it.

Duan Ying was Lin Xian's friend and a well-known education expert at the time. She volunteered and said she could help him raise his daughter.

Zhou Shirong agreed, but because of his deep feelings for his ex-wife, he never touched Duan Ying.

At that time, Zhou Shirong was really healing himself while protecting his daughter's fragile heart.

It was not until later that Duan Ying showed Zhou Xiaoyao the various awards he had received every day and praised Xiaoyao for getting better and better, that gave Zhou Shirong some comfort.

Zhou Shirong's impression of Duan Ying became better and better, and he gave her full responsibility for his daughter, and the two naturally became husband and wife.

In the following years, Zhou Shirong's emotions gradually shifted, especially after having a son, and he rarely thought of the past.

The old man is not as good as the new man, and the old things are not as good as the new things.

Time is a terrible thing, and almost nothing cannot be changed.

Zhou Shirong said nothing because he felt that his brother was right. He had indeed forgotten his daughter habitually.

Especially in the years after going abroad, at first, he would often ask Duan Ying about his daughter's situation, but later he stopped caring.

He couldn't even remember when he stopped caring about his daughter.

It was probably the time when Duan Ying was pregnant. As an emotional transition period, it was natural...
