Chapter 685: Chapter 685: The Fox Spirit

Zhou Xitong looked utterly pitiable, a stark contrast to her previous arrogance and brashness.

But Zhou Yiran glanced at her with nothing but disdain, "How could I not know what kind of person Qingqing is? She doesn’t provoke others unless they provoke her first. Reflect on why she would pick on you and not others. Isn’t it because of your own problems?"

All the people present: "..."

Zhou Xitong was even more infuriated and humiliated, and she burst into tears.

Zhou Leping and Xing Ying never expected their nephew to say such things.

To outsiders, Zhou Yiran was always like a fox that smiles, but within the family, he was uncompromising.

He didn’t show much respect to his own father, much less to them, just maintaining courteous familial ties.

It was only when the family tried to use his influence for their own benefit that Zhou Yiran didn’t interfere much.

He had an attitude that suggested: do whatever you like, just don’t bother me with it.

Knowing she was the sole girl in the family, Zhou Xitong often acted spoiled and behaved willfully towards Zhou Yiran.

He rarely entertained her antics, but Zhou Xitong was relentless in her attempts to evoke the affectionate heart of a brother towards his sister.

Now, the Zhou family had finally seen a different expression from Zhou Yiran, one that wasn’t carefree, directed towards this girl of unknown origin.

Yue Qingqing briefly recounted what had happened earlier, and Zhou Yiran immediately walked up to Qian Zhengxin.

Grasping the elderly man’s hand, he shook it slightly, "Mr. Qian, I owe you one. Thank you for bringing my Qingqing inside."

Qian Zhengxin was also confused but managed to maintain a nonchalant smile on his face.

"It’s nothing, it’s what I should do. It’s just unfortunate that Miss Yue was wronged."

Zhou Yiran snorted and told Zhou Xitong bluntly, "You can get lost, stop blocking Qingqing’s view."

Zhou Xitong’s sobbing ceased, and her voice turned shrill, "You’re telling me to get lost for her sake?"

"What else?" asked Zhou Yiran. "Can’t you understand human speech, or what?"

When Zhou Yiran appeared, everyone assumed he would back up Zhou Xitong, but the situation took a dramatic turn, and he ended up supporting the girl opposing Zhou Xitong.

Zhou Yiran’s remarks were incredibly rude, publicly humiliating Zhou Xitong.

Zhou Leping’s face darkened, "My dear nephew, your sister has adored you since she was little. You’ve really hurt her feelings by speaking like this."

Anyone else would have been considerate of their family’s dignity, especially with relatives as close as these.

But Zhou Yiran was unapologetically indifferent; he had never really cared about them.

"Does she adore me or the money of my household? Don’t try to act like an elder with me. Since Zhou Xitong dares to mess with my Qingqing, telling her to get lost is getting off lightly. If it were the old days, I would have already—"

Considering the rule of law in society today, Zhou Yiran swallowed back the rest of his violent words and pointed uncompromisingly at Zhou Xitong.

"I’m tired of arguing with you. Just go, go, go."

The people nearby looked at Zhou Xitong with meaningful gazes.

A man will burst into fury for the sake of a beauty.

Zhou Xitong was just a cousin, not a sister, and there was nothing she could do if she was used as a scapegoat.

Xing Ying, holding her crying daughter, said indignantly, "After all, we are family. Are you truly going to shame your sister for the sake of some girl?"

Zhou Yiran couldn’t be bothered to argue further and had security escort them out.

"All three of you, together, make it quick, stop wasting my time." He still had plans to catch up with his little junior sister.

A family should stick together—by getting lost together.

Zhou Leping was so furious, he threatened, "Let’s go, I’m going to call big brother right now. I want to know what he has against me to let his son treat our family like this."

Zhou Yiran sneered at the idea, what good would reaching out to that old man do? Do you really think he cares about you that much?

He remembered clearly how they distanced themselves from him when he was not yet successful. Now that he had made it, he was just casually helping you along,

and you take that for granted, trying to lecture me—please.

Zhou Xitong reluctantly left without the touch of security personnel, her wrath uncontained.

"Zhou Yiran, don’t be fooled by her innocent face, she’s nothing but a vixen, who knows how many men she’s been with."
