Yun Bujun, Li Xiang, and Jiang Mianmian arrived together. Upon seeing Yun Bujun, Zhou Hao's eyes turned red. He rose, intending to rush over and fight Yun Bujun, his demeanor like that of an enraged beast, quite terrifying.
Jiang Mianmian truly hadn't expected Zhou Hao to change so much in such a short time. It seemed that woman's charm was indeed considerable, capable of making a man completely enamored.
Li Xiang stepped forward and blocked Zhou Hao, saying, "Zhou Hao, calm down. You'd best figure out the truth of the matter, or you'll regret it in the future."
"Get lost! We don't welcome you to our home, and my grandfather doesn't need a murderer like you to pay respects! Yun Bujun, get out, get out!" Zhou Hao was extremely agitated.
Li Xiang almost couldn't hold him back. Yun Bujun ignored him and walked over to pick up three sticks of incense. Mianmian also came over and picked up three, lit them, and they bowed three times before Grandpa Zhou's memorial tablet, then inserted the incense into the censer.
Li Xiang was shoved aside by the frenzied Zhou Hao. Zhou Hao lunged at Yun Bujun. Yun Bujun indulged him, catching his fist and counter-punching. Zhou Hao was no match for Yun Bujun to begin with, and having not eaten or drunk properly for days, he was quickly beaten down by Yun Bujun.
"Ah, how could you hit him? You're going too far!" Fangfang shrieked, rushing over to help Zhou Hao.
"How did Grandpa Zhou really die? Who is good and who is bad? Zhou Hao, you'll know soon enough." Yun Bujun didn't want to waste more words with him. He turned and pulled Mianmian away.
Li Xiang bowed to Grandpa Zhou, then also quickly turned and ran out.
Zhou Hao, furious, pounded the ground. Fangfang, however, looked triumphant. As long as Zhou Hao and Yun Bujun fell out, her own plans would proceed more smoothly.
Yun Bujun told himself not to be angry, but in reality, he was seething. He truly wished he could crack open Zhou Hao's head and see what was inside. Was it straw?
Mianmian knew this visit would inevitably be unpleasant, so she suggested they go for a good meal. Li Xiang was naturally willing. He knew that when the young lady treated them, it wouldn't be to an ordinary restaurant. The lobster from last time still lingered in his memory.
The three went to a seafood restaurant, where they encountered Jiang Tianci, who was dining with some friends.
Li Xiang stared at the enormous seafood displayed, like an unsophisticated bumpkin who had never seen the world. Yun Bujun felt embarrassed and told him to order while he stayed far away from him.
Mianmian found Li Xiang's behavior quite endearing. She and Yun Bujun went to the side to comfort him.
"Don't be unhappy. Zhou Hao is actually quite pitiful now. His grandfather is dead, and he only has a venomous beauty plotting against him by his side. Think about it, if you continue to be angry with him and ignore him, won't he be very pathetic?" Mianmian tried to reason with him.
"Heh, he deserves it. I really don't want to bother with him!" Yun Bujun said fiercely.
Mianmian knew he really needed to vent. She said, "You're right. Let him lose everything, then he'll know who's good and who's bad. He truly shouldn't have done this. Not trusting his long-time good friends, but believing a woman he just met – he's a classic case of being blind and foolish!"
Yun Bujun was speechless.
"Forget it. Since his brain isn't working that well, let's forgive him this once. If there's a next time, I absolutely won't bother with him again! Alright? Yun Little Brother is magnanimous, after all." Mianmian deliberately tried to cheer him up, not wanting him to be unhappy.
