In Fubo City, a woman in a dignified skirt and a noble atmosphere stood at the gate of the compound, looking forward to it from time to time

In the early morning fog, several cars drove up and stopped at the door, and in the middle of the car came a young man in a cloak, with a tuft of white hair in the middle of the hairline, looking quite handsome and slightly tired.

The woman at the door immediately descended the steps to greet her, and the young man owed, "Mother." ”

The man's name is Peng Xi, who is Zhao Yuanchen's cousin, and the woman is Peng Xi's mother and Zhou Manyu, the sister of Zhou Manchao, the president of the Zhou Chamber of Commerce.

Zhou Manyu looked his son up and down, and said with a little worry: "Hurry back, everything your uncle has explained?"

Peng Xi bowed his head: "Fortunately, it's okay." He stretched out his hand and asked for a moment, signaling that something was said.

The mother and son walked inside, and the others who got out of the car had their own places to go.

As soon as he entered the main hall of the inner house, Zhou Manyu immediately said in a low voice: "Your cousin was killed in Buque City. ”

Peng Xi bowed: "I already know, that's why I rushed back as soon as possible." He raised his hand and unfastened the cloaking on his chest.

The next person came over to take the cloak, Zhou Manyu waved his hand to let people retreat, and personally poured tea for his son, taking advantage of the fact that there were no outsiders, he seemed to be a little happy, "It's okay now, no one will fight with you anymore." ”

Her elder brother, that is, President Zhou, has no children under his knees, not that he can't give birth, but in the process of making a fortune, he overcame all the obstacles and paid the price of blood, and was seriously injured in an attack and almost couldn't be saved, but his wife and children were not spared.

According to the laws of the fairy world, Zhou Manchao lost the qualification to have another child.

But Zhou Manchao has a sister and a younger sister, the sister is named Zhou Manfang, that is, Zhao Yuanchen's mother, and the younger sister is Zhou Manyu.

In the process of Zhou's expansion, he needs cronies, wouldn't it be a pity to let his family not use it, and it's not good not to take care of his own family, brother-in-law and brother-in-law have joined in, who knows that the lives of the two have become the price paid by Zhou's to this day, turning his sister and sister into widows.

Later, Zhao Yuanchen and Peng Xi, who grew up, also joined the Zhou family, just like their father, and worked hard for the Zhou family.

The two cousins also inevitably had a competition, and it was obvious that Zhou Manchao had no queen, and the huge Zhou Chamber of Commerce needed an heir, and anyone could see that the ultimate heir of the Zhou family must be between Zhao Yuanchen and Peng Xi.

At least in the eyes of Zhou Manfang and Zhou Manyu, if the Zhou family doesn't give their son the inheritance, can't it be returned to outsiders?

Their husbands lost their lives for the Zhou family, and in the eyes of their sisters, their son's inheritance of the Zhou family was a matter of course.

Whether it is the inducement of the outside world or the pressure of the family, it is difficult for the two cousins not to compete, and it is inevitable that there will be disagreements under the competition, which will cause the two sisters to also have a grudge. If it weren't for Zhou Manchao being calm, the two sisters would need to see Zhou Manchao's face, but they were afraid that they would have turned their faces publicly.

Now that Zhao Yuanchen has followed in the footsteps of his old man, he is also dead, and his son has no competitors, how can Zhou Manyu be unhappy, this is also the reason why he is anxious to wait for his son to come back, and he is excited and ecstatic.

Hearing his mother speak like this, Peng Xi was a little helpless, he hurried back, in fact, he was worried about his mother like this, worried that something would be poked out, facing his mother, he sighed slightly: "Mother, put this kind of words in my heart in the future, don't say it again, let my uncle feel when he hears it?" If I hadn't gone out to run errands this time, it would be me who would have gone to Buque City, and maybe it would be me who died." ”

Zhou Manyu sneered: "That is, if you are here, such a big thing, which round will get Yuanchen." People's abilities and abilities are different, you may not have anything to do when you go, you can only say that he was careless and messed up. ”

"Not really. Peng Xi helped his mother's elbow and helped her to sit down, "After I heard the news, I immediately learned about the general situation, but three places in the city were washed in blood overnight, hundreds of people were killed, and two city guards died. The death of these people is not unusual, the problem is that the incident happened in the city of Buque, so many people were killed, but the outside world did not even notice the slightest movement, this is simply incredible, it can be seen that the murderer behind the scenes is extraordinary, I am afraid that I will not escape if I go. ”

Hearing this, Zhou Manyufang was a little afraid, "Fortunately, fortunately, you didn't go, it can be seen that this is also fate." ”

Peng Xi skipped this and asked, "My cousin died, my aunt must be very grief-stricken, did my mother go to visit and comfort me?"

Zhou Manyu sneered, "How does she usually treat me, can she have a little sisterhood? I'm going to appease her? I'm afraid that if I go, I won't repay my kindness, and I will bring humiliation on myself, and I must not be regarded as a schadenfreude or a cat crying mouse." ”

Peng Xi sighed: "Mother, go, even if you are acting like it at this time, even if you are wronged, you have to endure it." As far as I know, my cousin's death this time is very strange, and it doesn't look like the Qin family did it. So who would do it?"

Zhou Manyu: "Why are you looking at me, how can I know who did it?"

She didn't understand what was going on at all, it wasn't the material in this regard, she simply believed that what her son said was right. If she really could distinguish between right and wrong, she would not stay at home, Zhou Manchao was afraid that she would have been pulled into the Zhou Chamber of Commerce as a helper.

Peng Xi: "Here's the problem, under normal circumstances, there is a simplest reasoning logic, who is the biggest beneficiary, who may be the murderer. Mother, tell me, my cousin is dead, who is the biggest beneficiary, and who is the happiest?"

"......" Zhou Manyu was stunned, gradually dumbfounded, slowly stood up, and said in shock: "Xi'er, do you mean that your uncle will suspect that you did it?"

Peng Xi: "Whether I doubt it, I don't know, I know the situation at present, but as long as the direction of the murderer can't be confirmed, my uncle will inevitably think about it." At least to outsiders, I'm suspicious. At this time, what do outsiders think about being ruthless and unrighteous, and what do people up and down within the Zhou family think? Mother, go, I'll go with you. ”

He was obviously more thoughtful, hurried back, and rushed to condolences before he could stand on his feet.

"Good. Zhou Manyu responded again and again, and immediately beckoned people to pack up their things and prepare for the mother and son to go together.

However, at this moment, Zhou Manchao's phone call came personally, and he already knew that his nephew was back, so he asked Peng Xi to go over immediately.

Peng Xi couldn't refuse, so he had to let his mother go alone, and he had to rush to see his uncle, and repeatedly explained to his mother before they parted, no matter what his aunt said or scolded, no matter how ugly the scolding was, he had to endure it and so on......

A towering tree, Zhou's headquarters, Peng Xi hurried to arrive.

In the president's office, as soon as they met, Zhou Manchao, who had a regretful look on his face, asked, "Have you heard about Yuanchen?"

Peng Xi: "I heard about it, but I don't know about it. ”

Zhou Manchao: "The specific details, don't talk about you, even I don't know, those who know should be killed." The eldest sister was grief-stricken at this time, and it is said that the eldest sister had fainted twice from crying. Alas, it's all my fault, I shouldn't have let him go to Buque City, and now I don't dare to see my eldest sister. ”

Peng Xi was silent.

Zhou Manchao got up from behind the table and paced: "Some people say it's the handiwork of the Qin family, what do you think?"

Peng Xi: "It could never be done by the Qin family." ”

Zhou Manchao: "Never, so sure?"

Peng Xi: "Killing my cousin won't solve any problem for the Qin family." Once discovered, it is asking for trouble. Through Pan Lingyun's matter, it can be seen that Qin Yi's woman is not simple, the bidding is imminent, it is impossible for her to lift a stone to shoot herself in the foot, and it is impossible for her to do such a thing on her own territory at such a time. ”

Zhou Manchao bowed, "I think so too." Who do you think would have done it?"

Peng Xi: "The situation is unknown, so it's hard for me to judge. ”

Zhou Manchao: "You must have thought about this. You are like your father, you have a good brain, I want to hear your opinions, what comes to mind, and do not have any scruples. ”

Peng Xi hesitated for a moment, and finally tried to say: "I heard that Pan Lingyun left Buque City on the day of the incident, and I also heard that all the dead were killed, but my cousin left a whole body. That's it.

Facing Zhou Manchao outside the window, he slowly turned his head and said coldly: "Do you suspect that it is me and the Pan family's handiwork? Do you think it was me and the Pan family who wanted to frame the Qin family in this way?"

Peng Xi did have this suspicion in his heart, but he was busy saying: "Uncle, I didn't mean that, I just think these two points are suspicious." ”

Zhou Manchao turned to face, "Don't hide it." Don't talk about you, presumably other people also have this suspicion, but Luo Tianhe, the city lord of Que City, should also have this idea, and asked you to come here for this matter, Pan Qing is on his way here, he should be about to arrive soon, and he is about to meet with me to talk about this matter, you can take over the matter of Yuanchen, and listen together. ”

Peng Xi responded, "Yes." ”

Zhou Manchao: "Pan Lingyun's departure, I need to explain to you that there is a reason for her departure, she is carrying out a secret plan, which even Yuanchen doesn't know......" In order to dispel Peng Xi's suspicions, he told the plan that he had concealed from Zhao Yuanchen.

It is not only to let this nephew know that he did not have the heart to sacrifice another nephew, but also to let this nephew understand that I trust you more and tell you about Zhao Yuanchen's plan not to tell you.

Peng Xi bowed slightly after hearing this, "Pan Lingyun's plan is clever, it seems that in order to be ashamed of Qin Yixue, Pan Lingyun has put a lot of thought into it. ”

Zhou Manchao sighed: "That Qin Yi, we all underestimated, after taking over the Qin family, she has been guarding her own one-acre and three-point land to do business, a pampered little girl, I didn't put her in my eyes, who would have thought that she would suddenly intervene in the bidding of the giant spirit god, obviously prepared, it can be seen that she has been preparing in secret, has been in Taoguang and obscure, has been waiting for the right opportunity to make a move, if she doesn't make a move, she will have to compete with my Zhou family and Pan family." We were all deceived by her, Qin Daobian gave birth to a good daughter!"

Peng Xi nodded, "The 'slap' to Pan Lingyun woke us all up, and that 'slap' is officially declaring war on us." A mere Qin clan dared to declare war on the Zhou family and the Pan family at the same time, and this woman's courage did not allow her to shave her eyebrows. Uncle, I would like to meet this woman in person!"
