At the lavish reception, men in suits and leather shoes are shuttling between the guests with their delicate and touching female companions.

Duke Sulan also stood beside his noble lady, and his proudest eldest son, Zoe, stood respectfully behind him, following him to meet all kinds of people in the business field.

At this time, Duke Sulan saw Mr. Zong coming in a hurry from a distance, he said goodbye to the person who spoke just now with a smile, and walked in that direction: "Mr. Zong, why are you in such a hurry?"

Zong Lin looked left and right, shook his head with a calm face, Su Lan had an epiphany, turned around and quietly instructed his son: "Zoe, take your mother around." ”

Zoe pondered for a while, knowing that the two of them must have something important to discuss, and stepped forward to support Mrs. Sulan to leave the scene under the pretext of leaving the scene.

Asking Zoe to leave Mrs. Sulan still understands and lets her leave too, which makes her feel very uncomfortable, and after being glared at by Duke Sulan, she shook off Zoe's hand with a calm face and left the place.

After they left, Su Lan said, "Mr. Zong, there is no one now, just say what you have to say." ”

Zong Lin saw that there was no one left and right, so he whispered: "Duke, can you pay attention to your Mike tonight?"

"Mike?" Duke Su Lan couldn't guess what Zong Lin meant when he asked about his youngest son, so he weighed and asked, "Could it be that what Mr. Zong wants to say is related to my youngest son." ”

Knowing that Duke Sulan was a smart man, Zong Lin didn't say much, just nodded and said, "Mr. Cheng, let me tell you a word, be optimistic about Mike, it won't be good if you get into trouble in the future." ”

After hearing this point, Su Lan's mind turned several times, and secretly guessed that it might be that Mike had done something out of the ordinary and offended that person.

Thinking of this, he immediately said to Zong Lin: "Mr. Zong, I hope you can help me say more good things, the child is naughty, and he will be strictly disciplined in the future, let that person, don't be angry." ”

Zong Lin sighed and spread his hands helplessly: "I'm afraid it's too late, that person is so angry tonight that I don't even dare to persuade him." ”

"This ......"

Duke Su Lan gritted his teeth with a calm face and said, "I'll go find out what the matter is first, and I'll definitely give you an explanation later." ”

"Well, I'm in trouble with the Duke. ”

The words have been brought, Zong Lin didn't say anything more, turned around and left.

Looking at his departing back, Su Lan fell into deep thought.

Zong Lin is a well-known figure in the country's business circles, controlling half of the country's business, involving finance and trade, hotels and banks, clothing and other fields, he also bought more than a dozen wineries and ranches in the suburbs, with a net worth of more than 100 million, is the object of many people's pursuit, and they all want to cooperate with him, Duke Sulan wants to move to the shopping mall, Zong Lin is the first object he considers.

Even if Su Lan has a knighthood, he still respects Zong Lin a lot, in order to get a piece of the pie from him.

Zong Lin knew what Su Lan was thinking, but he couldn't ask for Su Lan's initiative to please him, no matter how good his business was, he was always a businessman who was not in the stream, with the help of Duke Su Lan, he could get to know more people like him.

Even so, his attitude towards Su Lan is lukewarm, there is a good saying, things that are too easy to get are always not cherished, what he wants is to make Su Lan feel that he is a difficult bone to gnaw.

After thinking about it for a long time, he didn't come up with any ideas, and in the process, Duke Sulan stood still and didn't move, and finally had to hold his forehead and wave to his eldest son.

After leaving Duke Sulan's side, Zoe had been watching the situation on his side, seeing that his father's face was not quite right, and finally waited for him to summon, hurried over, and supported him with concern: "Father, what's wrong with you?"

Duke Su Lan gritted his teeth and instructed him, "Bring me your unsuccessful brother." ”

"Yes, got it. ”

Seeing her father's gloomy face this time, Zoe didn't ask much, nodded and looked around for Mike's traces, and walked in his direction after finding it.

At this time, Mike was annoyed that he had lost the trace of the beauty, and saw Zoe walking towards him in a panic, and hurriedly greeted him: "Brother, why are you here?"

Zoe frowned and glanced at him, his younger brother has no other skills, his ability to cause trouble is first-class, every time he comes to clean up the mess, it gives him a headache, he pulls his collar and says in a deep voice: "Father is looking for you, I can tell you, his face is very bad, you pay attention to what you say." ”

"Huh?" Mike looked reluctant, very resistant to meeting his father, and begged to tug the corner of Zoe's clothes: "Brother, you hurry up and find my mother, my father is afraid that he will scold me again." ”

"You!"

Zoe shook her head, there was nothing she could do about this younger brother, but she still didn't want him to suffer, so she turned around and went to find Mrs. Sulan.

There is a secret thing in the Sulan family, the eldest young master Zoe was born to a concubine, the duke was ashamed of this matter, and executed his mother after he was born, and handed him over to his wife, although Zoe and Mike are half-brothers, but they grew up together, and their relationship is deeper than that of ordinary brothers.

Duke Sulan intends to pass on the title to Zoe, but he hesitates because of his identity, Mike is noble but uneducated, and his wife dotes on him deeply.

When Zoe came to Mrs. Suran, she was chatting with a group of noble ladies, and she didn't even look at him when she came over, so she left him aside and continued to talk to the others.

Seeing that she was busy, Zoe obediently stood aside and waited for her to finish speaking, and where she couldn't see, Zoe slowly clenched her fists, her eyes bursting with hatred.

When he was a child, he just felt that his mother preferred his younger brother, and he didn't feel inappropriate, and the more he grew up, the more he realized his mother's different attitude towards their two brothers.

When he grew up, he stumbled upon the secret of his life and learned the cause of his biological mother's death, and then he suddenly realized that his hatred for Mrs. Su Lan became deeper and deeper.

He knew that he was weak, Mrs. Su Lan was born in a noble family, and her mother's family was powerful, so he had been planning a big situation for many years, dormant in the Su Lan family, waiting to bring down Mrs. Su Lan and avenge the murder of his mother.

On the surface, he is a filial son and a virtuous brother, Mrs. Su Lan has never noticed that he has two hearts, behind the scenes, he silently cultivates his own power, just waiting for one day, he can take revenge.

After talking to her female companion, Mrs. Su Lan glanced at Zoe, who had been standing next to her for a long time, and asked coldly, "What are you looking for me?"

Zoe looked up and calmly recounted what had just happened.

The more he spoke, the worse Mrs. Su Lan's face became, and finally she glared at him fiercely: "You actually said such a big thing now, you deliberately hurt your brother, right?"

Zoe replied in a deep voice, "You once said don't disturb while you're talking. ”

"Then it depends on what's going on, is Mike's matter a trivial matter?"

Mrs. Sulan shook her hand and slapped him in the face, ignoring his reaction, and hurried to find her son.

Zoe covered her face that had been slapped, raised her head with a dark face, looked at her departing back, and her eyes were vicious: "If you owe me, I will get it back." ”

This scene happened to be caught by Cheng Yu, who was sitting in the monitoring room, he touched his chin and said with a smile: "Interesting." ”

Then he turned his head and instructed Zong Lin: "You go and find this young master Zoe, I have something to say to him." ”

"Yes. ”

Zong Lin, who was standing behind him, heard this, and hurriedly turned around and went out to find someone.

He walked over to Zoe and whispered to him.

Suddenly, Zoe's eyes lit up and she followed his footsteps into the monitoring room.
