Chapter 681 No Education
Zhou Minglan was like a scabby dog, refusing to leave Jiangcheng. After discovering Qiao Na at Zhou Mingchen's residence, she kept running over here.
That night, Zhou Minglan came again. Zhou Mingchen had just finished dinner when Zhou Minglan came over with a lot of bags, "Brother, I'm here!"
She wore a mask to hide her face which had not yet recovered.
Not only the face, but also the scars on other parts of the body are still in the recovery period.
But Zhou Minglan is like this. As long as she can move, she doesn't like lying down and loves to toss and turn.
"Brother, there's no one to take care of you here, why don't I move over here and take care of you."
As she said this, Zhou Minglan was about to take her things into the room, not at all like she was asking for opinion.
Zhou Mingchen stopped her, "Take it away, you don't need to move it here."
"Why? We lived together abroad and have lived together since we were young. Why do we have to live separately in Jiangcheng?"
She looked curious, then lowered her eyes and asked, "Or is it because of that woman last time? Do you like her?"
"I asked you to go back, why haven't you done anything for so long?"
"Of course I can't go back. Mom's matter hasn't been investigated yet."
"You're not saying she's a disgrace to you?"
Zhou Mingchen's light-hearted question made Zhou Minglan nervous.
In her heart, she really thought so. A woman who brought shame to the Zhou family would be better off dead.
She didn't understand why her family members were so unreliable. Except for Zhou Mingchen, the others only knew how to cause trouble for her.
Her younger sister oppressed her. Her mother used to bring her honor, but now she was brought into shame. Her father also passed away early and never gave her fatherly love.
Only Zhou Mingchen, only her brother protected her and loved her.
In fact, Zhou Minglan has always felt that it would be better for the other people in the family to die, as they would not bring her anything if they were alive.
This family only needs her and her brother.
These two brothers and sisters can naturally be together for a long time.
Zhou Minglan glanced at Zhou Mingchen and explained, "I was just too angry last time, so I said those words. Brother, don't be angry."
Subconsciously, Zhou Minglan wanted to hold Zhou Mingchen's hand.
He suddenly remembered what Xu Yi said, about the sense of boundaries between siblings.
"Minglan, take your hands away."
"what?"
"You're too old now, you can't just do this all the time."
"But since I was a child..."
Because he knew deep down that she was not his biological sister, and with the previous experience of Xu Yi and Song Yanming, Zhou Mingchen felt that what Xu Yi said made sense.
Zhou Minglan's mind went blank, and she had the illusion that something that belonged to her was taken away. Zhou Mingchen was her brother, and she had always been inseparable from her. He was also the only person who was kind to her and had spoiled her since she was a child.
Could it be that Zhou Mingchen really has a woman, so he started to avoid suspicion?
This is something Zhou Minglan absolutely cannot tolerate. Back then, Xia Wenyue also pursued Zhou Mingchen without knowing the consequences.
As an international student from an ordinary family, Zhou Minglan warned her several times, but Xia Wenyue was very courageous and had a cheerful and lively personality.
Not only did he not listen to her warnings, he even warned her not to interfere with her emotional freedom.
Gradually, Zhou Minglan saw that Zhou Mingchen also had a good attitude towards Xia Wenyue, and she became extremely scared.
Do I have to accept that the man who has loved me since I was a child is nice to another woman? Do I have to accept that I will become that outsider? This is impossible!
So Zhou Minglan called someone and raped Xia Wenyue in the rental house.
Xia Wenyue's personality changed drastically after she got dirty, and she didn't dare to call the police even though she was in a foreign country.
Zhou Minglan had nothing to fear, knowing that Xia Wenyue couldn't possibly find out about her.
Later, Xia Wenyue hid whenever she saw Zhou Mingchen and no longer expressed her love boldly. Not long after, she returned home in shame.
But that Joanna is no ordinary person, nor is she someone who is easy to deal with. The family behind her is extremely powerful.
"Brother, I can move in and take care of you. I won't talk to you anymore. I'm going to go wash up first. I want to live in the room facing south with a balcony."
"Minglan, I told you that you don't need to move in."
"There's no one around you to take care of you, and you don't like strangers coming to your territory..."
"I don't like to repeat myself a second time."
Zhou Minglan's heart was beating like a drum, and she was very uneasy. "Are you related to that girl named Qiao Na? Are you hiding something from me?"
She was afraid that Zhou Mingchen was dating Qiao Na, and she was also afraid that Zhou Mingchen was hiding it from him.
"Brother, please say something."
"I don't need to explain everything to you."
Zhou Minglan's heart suddenly fell to the bottom because of his words. Before she could finish the second half of the sentence, Zhou Mingchen said, "I will take time to visit the Qi family in the next two days."
"Qi family?"
The Qi family is so cruel. When Qi Yu followed Zhou Yuancheng, they unilaterally announced the severance of relations.
Everyone could see that the old man wanted to take advantage of the Huo family, but when he failed to do so, he became angry and humiliated.
This is something that everyone recognizes.
Later, Qi Yu and Zhou Yuancheng were involved in a car accident, and their little daughter was also in an accident. The car was destroyed and people died. It was all in the news, and the Qi family acted very indifferent.
Everyone thought that the Qi family would support the Zhou family. After all, the whole family had died at that time, leaving only the siblings Zhou Mingchen and Zhou Minglan.
Zhou Mingchen also asked someone to go to the Qi family, hoping to get help from his grandfather. A blood relationship is better than a stranger.
But my grandfather refused and did not acknowledge him.
Thinking of these things, Zhou Minglan was furious. "Brother, are you crazy? You went to visit him. That old man is not worth visiting. He didn't even attend my parents' funeral."
It is precisely because of this that Zhou Mingchen felt that there was a big problem.
Once there is a breakthrough, things will get bigger and bigger.
"Grandpa never remarried, but he and Liang Qiaohe already had a son and a daughter. To the outside world, Liang Qiaohe called herself the second wife of the Qi family... I saw her at an event once. She was wearing emerald green and wanted to show off her status to the whole world. Grandpa said he would sever ties with mom, and he did it right away. He was extremely indulgent to that woman and her son and daughter."
The word "indulgence" once again made Zhou Mingchen alert.
"No matter what, he is an elder. Don't speak about elders like this behind their backs."
Zhou Minglan sneered, "To say that he is a light person is too harsh. If we meet next time..."
"Minglan, you'll only make him think we're uneducated."
Zhou Minglan stopped talking, feeling that Zhou Mingchen was very strange today.
"It's getting late now, you should go back."
"Brother, I'm serious. I just want to move in with you..."
"go out."
Seeing that Zhou Minglan didn't move, Zhou Mingchen helped her carry the luggage to the door.
