The Rest of My Life

Chapter 2 - Uncle Zhou

At a time like this, explaining would only make them more embarrassed.

I called calmly, "Uncle Zhou."

In fact, Zhou Xun is only six years older than me when I'm twenty-two.

However, my dad has always thought of himself as Zhou Xun's elder brother, so I'm used to calling him uncle.

Zhou Xun nodded lightly.

He turned to Gong Shan and said, "I have something to say to you."

Gong Shan was unwilling to leave, so she stammered, "Recite her that she doesn't know anything, why don't I call her father over …"

Zhou Xun frowned slightly.

Immediately, a bodyguard stepped forward to stop Gong Shan.

Gong Shan's face was filled with unwillingness, but she could only leave bitterly.

Zhou Xun gave my mother three incense sticks worth of time before looking at me and saying, "Follow me."

After saying that, he strode out of the room.

I got up and followed, feeling the soreness in my legs and the soreness in my face.

He was waiting for me in the car.

It was a black Land Cruiser, the license plate of the imperial city.

When I got in, there was no one in the car but him.

Only the faint fragrance of Jasmine lingered in the carriage.

I sat quietly, waiting for him to speak.

His gaze falls on one side of my face and he frowns. "How?"

I didn't say anything.

It wasn't that I couldn't tell him, but I didn't want him to know that I was useless, and I didn't want him to feel sorry for me.

However, Zhou Xun seemed to have already guessed it: "Your classmate did it?"

This student, of course, was referring to Gong Shan.

The entire Hua Lin circle knows about my dad and Gong Shan, and everyone is even more clear that I was the one who lured the wolf into our family, which caused my mother to be in endless pain.

I clenched my fists and bit my lips. "I will get my revenge."

Zhou Xun raised his eyes and looked at me silently.

I lowered my head, afraid to meet his gaze.

He suddenly took out a document and handed it to me. "This is a will. Your mother asked me to pass it on to you."

I looked up at him quizzically.

My mother didn't know him well enough to give him something as important as a will.

Thinking about how he knew that my mother liked red beans and the stars, I wondered what it was all about.

I hesitated.

The light in his eyes became colder.

I took it quickly and saw that my mother had left all her possessions to me.

But she doesn't have much private property, and the shares in the company have long been swindled away by my father. Usually, she doesn't have much money in her private property, and now that she sold her real estate, the total amount of money was only 20 million.

I was sick of it, not because of the money, but because of my mother.

Back then, my father was just a poor kid in the countryside, but my grandfather's family was rich and powerful in Hua Lin. He took the initiative to pursue my mother and seduce her into falling in love with him.

Grandpa was so angry that he fell ill, but because he had only one daughter, he gave the company to my mother before he died.

And my father coaxed my mother to give the company to him. Initially, he only changed the legal person's representative, but gradually the shares were taken away by him. However, my mother was coaxed by him and was even willing to go through with it.

At that time, I was young and did not know about this matter. Otherwise, I would have tried to find a way to stop it.

Unfortunately, it was all too late.

The billions of dollars in my grandfather's family were all transferred into my father's name, leaving my mother with only this 20 million.

If Grandpa was still alive, he would definitely be angered by my mother to death.

My mom really loves my dad.

But the love was pathetic and stupid.

The reason why I took the Imperial City University was to take her away from Hua Lin, from this home that was full of scars.

But she didn't want to, she only wanted to protect the person she loved …

Is my mother pitiful?

Of course it was pitiful. After being deceived and humiliated like this by the person she loved deeply, it was not a good thing for her to die. Even Yama King of the Underworld would pity her a little when he heard this.

Hate it?

From my point of view, she would certainly be hateful if her husband did not want her daughter's attitude.

However, what right do I have to hate her?

The source of all this was because I brought home a student whose heart was like a snake and scorpion …

I couldn't stop the tears from rolling down my cheeks.

Zhou Xun said: "Not long ago, I met your mother. Other than this thing, she also had a few words that she wanted me to pass on to you."

I looked up at him.

Because his vision was blocked by tears, his face could not be seen clearly.

He slowly said, "Your mother said that she wanted you to go to the imperial capital and start a new life. Don't let hatred cover your eyes and don't avenge her either."

I listened in a daze.

Why is she so cruel, even her last words were passed on, why didn't she tell me herself, why did she leave me …

I squeezed the will, my eyes blurring with tears.

Zhou Xun was silent for a moment, then gently placed a hand on my shoulder. With a little strength, he said: "Listen to your mother, go to the imperial capital, and don't come back."

I burst into tears.

If I could put it down, I wouldn't be in such pain …

He took his hand off my shoulder and didn't try to talk me out of it.

After a long time, I finally stopped crying and slowly came back to my senses.

Zhou Xun leaned against the back of the chair, his slender fingers holding onto a cigarette.

I was a little uncomfortable, and in any case, I was rude to him.

His eyes were dark and dark. He threw the cigarette into the box and said, "Go back to the imperial capital after your mother is buried."

I did not reply him, but only said in a low voice, "… "Thank you."

He paused.

As I got out of the car, he handed me a card.

On the black gold card, there was only a name and number.

He said lightly, "I owe your mother a favor. You can always ask for it back."

So that's how it was. No wonder he helped my mother pass on her will and last words.

I thanked him again.

But in my heart, I thought that with his identity, it would be very difficult to see him again.

When I got out of the car, his driver and bodyguard went back to the car without a sound.

Then the door was closed and the car was gone.

I looked down at the card in my hand, slipped it into my pants pocket, and went back to the mourning hall.

The guests had all left after the memorial service. There weren't any relatives left in my grandfather's house, and my mother didn't have many friends. The mourning hall suddenly became empty.

Gong Shan walked over, stared at the document in my hand and gently asked: "Did Mr. Zhou give this to you?"

When my father heard the words Mr. Zhou, he quickly walked over and said, "Let me have a look!"

Before I could react, he had taken the will.

Gong Shan stretched out her neck to look at it, and said faintly: "Is chanting really worth money? Twenty million, I don't even dare to think about it."

In fact, she had taken a number of properties from my father over the years, more than that.

I stared at my father. I wanted to see if Gong Shan would take away this little bit of money after she instigated me.

His eyes flickered, and his tone became especially gentle, "Nian, you're still young, let your father take care of this money for you first..."

As expected, he even had to scheme against such a small matter.

I surged with endless ridicule in my heart, and said with a sneer: "Gong Shan is the same age as me, she has already been a third child for four years, and even has a child … Do you still think I'm old? "

My father's expression changed and he angrily said, "What do you mean? You unfilial daughter, you only know how to contradict me!" Look what your mother taught you! I truly regret giving birth to you back then! "

Gong Shan immediately calmed him down: "Shitou gege, don't be angry."

My dad's name is Su Shiyan, my mom's name is Yang Jun.

My name is Su Nianjun.

Su Nianjun, Niu Jun, what a meaningful name.

My mother must have been touched for many years.

Unfortunately, everything was just a play.

And my mother, even at death's door, did not see clearly what Su Shiyan had in mind.
