Return of the Prodigious Son

Chapter 2 What they said doesn't count

Zhou Ling's eyes were full of tears. She felt so wronged in her heart.

She admitted that she was very poor, but how could she be bullied when she was poor?

"Brother, why are you here?"

Zhou Ling forced a smile and came to Zhou Tian.

Looking at her sensible sister, Zhou Tian felt quite upset.

He knew that his sister was working on a holiday to earn tuition fees, but he didn't expect her situation to be like this.

"I'm worried about you, so I came here to see you. By the way, I'll give you tuition fees."

Zhou Tian gently smiled at Zhou Ling.

Peng Na, who was beside them, saw this and felt even more contempt for Zhou Tian.

No wonder he was dressed in such a shabby way. After all, he was Zhou Ling's brother.

"Our restaurant is a high-end restaurant, and not everyone can enter. If you are not here to spend money, you can leave immediately."

Peng Na said as she looked at Zhou Tian with a strange expression.

Zhou Tian glanced at Peng Na. "How do you know that I'm not here to spend money?"

"Haha, why don't you look at yourself in the mirror? You're dressed like a beggar. Can you afford to spend money here?"

Peng Na pursed her lips in disdain and sneered.

Can't afford it?

Zhou Tian found it amusing. There were too many idiots nowadays who judged people based on their appearance.

"Brother, don't argue with her. You can go now. I'll come to see you when I get off work."

Zhou Ling was afraid that the matter would be blown out of proportion, so she pushed Zhou Tian out.

Zhou Tian looked at his sister's anxious look. He didn't want to embarrass his sister, so he planned to leave first and discuss it after she got off work.

Unexpectedly, Peng Na spoke at this time. "Zhou Ling, you don't have to wait anymore. You can get off work now."

Zhou Ling was stunned. "Sister Peng, it's not the time to get off work yet."

"You don't have to wait until after work. From now on, you don't have to work anymore. You're fired."

Peng Na snorted.

Hearing this, Zhou Ling was dumbfounded. It was not easy to find a job. The school would open in a few days, and she could still make some money these days.

"I think you're just a small leader. What right do you have to expel my sister?"

Zhou Tian asked Peng Na.

"Idiot, do you know who my boyfriend is? If I said to fire your sister, she can't do it here. Do you understand?"

Peng Na was very pleased with herself at the mention of her boyfriend.

"Baby, what are you arguing about? Who is he?"

At this moment, a middle-aged man with a big belly came over.

The man was dressed in a suit and looked fair and clean. He came over and wrapped his arms around Peng Na.

Peng Na immediately became gentle and looked at Sun Cheng with a face full of admiration. "Brother Sun, this bumpkin is Zhou Ling's brother. Hurry up and expel Zhou Ling. I’m getting annoyed when I see

her."

"Oh?"

Sun Cheng squinted his eyes, looked at Zhou Tian, and snorted.

Sun Cheng , who could be the manager of the lobby of this restaurant ,had seen all kinds of people, so when he saw Zhou Tian's clothes, he despised him from the bottom of his heart.

"Didn't Zhou Ling work very hard? Why did you fire her?"

Sun Cheng glanced greedily at Zhou Ling. He had long wanted to have Zhou Ling, but he had never had the chance.

Peng Na was unhappy to hear that. "There's not that much of a reason. I just don't like her to show off in front of me."

Sun Cheng didn't say anything. It was a bit unreasonable to fire Zhou Ling with this reason.

Moreover, he hadn't got Zhou Ling yet. Sun Cheng was a little reluctant.

Seeing Sun Cheng remain silent, Peng Na flared up. "Hmph, did you take a fancy to her? As expected, a man doesn't have any good stuff. He likes the new and dislikes the old!"

"No, no, no, haha. Sweetheart, don't be angry! She is nothing. I will fire her now."

Sun Cheng laughed and then said to Zhou Ling, "Go to the Finance Department to get your salary. You can go home."

"Today's salary will be deducted, who let you go outand didn’t work, hmph."

Peng Na happily said to Zhou Ling.

Zhou Ling lowered her head and said nothing. She was very sad.

Just as she was about to head for the Finance Department, Zhou Tian held her back.

"Sister, don't be sad. What they said doesn't count."

Zhou Ling raised her head in surprise. She found that her brother seemed to be different now.

As for the difference, she could not tell.

After Sun Cheng heard what Zhou Tian said, he couldn't help sneering and said, "What I said doesn't count. Do you have the final say?"

"Haha, you fool is so funny. My brother Sun is the lobby manager, and you think that he doesn't count."

Peng Na laughed so hard that she rocked back and forth. She looked at Zhou Tian as if she was looking at a fool.

"It's okay, brother. You go first. I'll go after I get my salary."

Zhou Ling whispered to Zhou Tian. When she saw Sun Cheng and Peng Na laughing at her brother like this, she felt very distressed.

"They should go."

Zhou Tian said calmly. He took Zhou Ling's arm and didn't let her move.

"All right, all right. Get out of here. You're not welcome here."

Sun Cheng waved his hand at Zhou Tian impatiently.

Zhou Tian ignored Sun Cheng and asked Zhou Ling, "Sister, do you have your boss's phone number?"

"Yes."

Zhou Ling nodded, but she didn't know what Zhou Tian was going to do.

"What, you want to complain to our boss? It's useless. Our boss won't have time to pay attention to trash like you."

Peng Na mocked Zhou Tian.

"Sister, call your boss and tell him to come over now. I want to buy this seafood restaurant."

Zhou Tian said in a deep voice.

"Huh?"

Zhou Ling was stunned, but she still dialed the boss's number.

Sun Cheng and Peng Na were both stunned for a moment, but soon they burst out laughing.

"Haha, one more crazy."

"Brother Sun, I'm going to die. I'm going to be teased to death by this fool."

Zhou Tian pretended not to hear and brought Zhou Ling to the restaurant.

In less than a minute, the boss went downstairs.

"My surname is Xu. Are you going to buy my restaurant?"

Boss Xu asked Zhou Tian politely.

"Boss, just ignore him. He is mentally ill."

"Yes, boss. Look at how poor he is."

Sun Cheng and Peng Na stood by the side and reminded Boss Xu with an ingratiating look.

After all, Boss Xu had seen much of the world, and he did not underestimate Zhou Tian.

"Sir, my hotel business is very good, so you have to pay at least five million to sell it to you."

Boss Xu tested Zhou Tian.

In fact, it was only worth three million yuan, but the business in the hotel was really good, so Boss Xu deliberately raised the price a lot.

"Okay, go and prepare the contract. Give me an account, and I'll transfer five million dollars to you now."

Zhou Tian said blandly.

"Okay... okay, sir!"

Boss Xu was so excited that Zhou Tian didn't even baigain the price. He sold it for five million yuan, which was absolutely a sky-high price.

He brought Zhou Tian to the Finance Department and soon, five million was already there...

When he returned to the hotel lobby again, Boss Xu still felt like he was dreaming.

He actually sold it for nearly twice the price. It was a huge profit!

Looking at the sloppy clothes of Zhou Tian, Boss Xu sighed in his heart, "Are rich people nowadays so low-key?"

Sun Cheng and Peng Na were extremely flustered. At first, they thought Zhou Tian was putting on an act, but they never thought that Zhou Tian was serious.

"It's all because I was blind. Now I've made a blunder!"

"Sir, I'll pack up and leave. This restaurant is yours."

Satisfied, Boss Xu shook hands with Zhou Tian enthusiastically and then went upstairs to pack up.

"Boss..."

Sun Cheng and Peng Na trembled as they came to the front of Zhou Tian and almost knelt down.

How could they not be nervous? Zhou Tian was now their new boss.

The two people who were arrogant just now were as obedient as grandchildren in front of Zhou Tian.

"You two can leave now."

Zhou Tian smiled coldly and looked at Sun Cheng and Peng Na.

When the two heard this, they felt as if they had been struck by lightning. They never expected such a result.

He had spent five million to buy the restaurant just to fire them. Was he going to be so rich and willful? All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

"Boss, please show mercy. I still have a wife and a child to raise. I also have housing mortgage. I can't lose my job..." Sun Cheng didn't care about his face anymore. He knelt at his feet and begged.

"Boss, please keep me here. I'm willing to do whatever you want me to do." Peng Na shook Zhou Tian's arm, wanting to use the honey trap.

"Shut up! If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have made the boss angry!"

"Sun Cheng, what did you say about me?"

"..."

The two of them started fighting in the lobby of the hotel.

Zhou Tian frowned and asked the security guards to drive them out.

"Sister, this restaurant will be yours in the future. You can come and take care of it when you are free."

Zhou Tian looked at his sister gently and said.

Zhou Ling had not recovered from the shock. She murmured, "Brother, why do you have so much money?"

"You'll understand later. I'll go first."

Zhou Tian smiled and then left.

After stopping a taxi, he rushed home.

As soon as they arrived downstairs, they saw a brand-new BMW 7 Series parked there.

Zhou Tian didn't care, but when he thought of his ferocious mother-in-law, he shook his head and went upstairs.

As soon as they entered the room, they saw Zhang Shuyun with a smile on her face. She put a plate of washed fruit in front of a young man.

"Xiaofei, Ruoxue will be off work soon. You can sit for a while. I will chat with you."

Zhang Shuyun greeted Qian Xiaofei affectionately.

Qian Xiaofei, the son of the Qian Group in Beichuan City, had just returned from studying abroad.

He was also one of Li Ruoxue's many pursuers. He had been pursuing her since high school, but he had not been able to reach his goal.

This time Qian Xiaofei still had a crush on Li Ruoxue.

What you can't get is always the best.

He also heard that Li Ruoxue had married a lame husband.

In addition to jealousy and unwillingness, he also felt that he had a chance to steal someone else's woman.

"Okay, aunt, hey, this is..."

Qian Xiaofei was taken aback when he saw Zhou Tian walking in.

"Hmph, he's that lame husband of Ruoxue."

Zhang Shuyun glared at Zhou Tian angrily. "Didn't you say you'd get out of here? How dare you come back?"

"Haha, he is Ruoxue's husband. I can imagine what kind of life she has been living these years."

Qian Xiaofei smiled playfully. Seeing Zhou Tian dressed so old-fashioned, he despised him in his heart.

How could such a poor guy deserve to have Li Ruoxue?

Zhou Tian did not speak. He glanced at Qian Xiaofei calmly before walking back to his room.

"Why don't you greet the guests? You are so uneducated! Hey, why can you walk so fast?"

Zhang Shuyun was extremely surprised. She wondered why this cripple had suddenly recovered.

"Mom, I'm back."

Just then, the door opened and a beautiful woman with long legs walked into the living room. She had a sweet face and a graceful figure.

As soon as the woman entered the door, Zhou Tian's eyes softened and he stopped.

When Qian Xiaofei saw this woman, his soul nearly left his body. He stood up in a gentlemanly manner and walked up to her with flowers in his hands.
