Chapter 238 The True Nature of a Man…

Shen Xian knew perfectly well that Lao Zhou bringing this up again today meant something had happened at the company.

Zhou Jingming said in a nonchalant tone, "When you're out and about, everyone calls you my older sister. How are you old?"

"Smooth-talking, you're fifty already, aren't you old yet?" Shen Xian was a little angry, but suddenly she was amused by these words.

Su Xi also praised, "She doesn't look old! Mom looks only thirty."

"Look, even your daughter-in-law says so, which proves you're still young." Zhou Jingming was always kind and gentle to Shen Xian.

This is what makes Shen Xian most gratified.

But ironically, every time the father and son get together, they inevitably start arguing.

She could hear the roaring from the study downstairs.

"Alright, alright, Mom isn't old. Mom still wants to support your dad in managing the company." Shen Xian sighed deeply, then said earnestly, "You don't have to take over the company now, but you'll have to come back in a few years."

"You don't know your father..."

"No need to beg him." Before Shen Xian could finish speaking, a sharp shout interrupted her.

When Mr. Zhou came out of the study, his complexion was much better than before.

"Tell him to get out. Just seeing him annoys me."

Zhou's father snorted coldly.

Shen Xian protected Zhou Jingming and snapped at him, "Who are you telling to get lost?"

Just a moment ago, Zhou's father was all high and mighty, but as soon as his wife spoke, he immediately backed down. "That bastard only knows how to make me angry. Let him leave. I want to be alone."

"Go to your room quietly and don't come out," Shen Xian snorted.

Zhou's father glared fiercely at Zhou Jingming, but dared not utter another word.

Because she's his wife.

If you tell him to shut up, he has to shut up.

If you tell him to get out, he has no choice but to leave.

Mr. Zhou didn't say anything in the end, and turned to go into the master bedroom.

With a bang, the door was slammed shut!

Shen Xian's gaze returned to Zhou Jingming. "Think carefully about what Mom said."

Then he went to the master bedroom to comfort Zhou's father.

Zhou Jingming stood still.

Su Xi pulled him back, saying, "You should really think about it. Don't let your parents down."

"You want me to take over the company?"

Zhou Jingming suddenly asked her.

“I will not interfere with your decision, but your parents need you. You have the blood of the Zhou family in your veins and are destined to shoulder this responsibility.”

Zhou Jingming gently stroked her face. "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Su Xi smiled, "I knew it. My husband is a good man who is filial and responsible."

Zhou Jingming moved closer to her.

Su Xi stepped back.

Until Su Xi's back was pressed against the wall.

He leaned against the wall behind her with one hand, and smiled, "Aside from these two points, I'm a loyal man."

I have liked her all these years.

Waiting for her.

Even though he was surrounded by many women, he never crossed any lines.

"Looks like I've really struck gold," Su Xi said with a grin.

Zhou Jingming leaned down and kissed her. "A man as good as me is hard to find in this world. You should cherish me."

After saying that, he wanted to go into more detail.

Su Xi quickly covered his lips with her hand, "Don't do anything rash, Mom and Dad are still in the room."

"Don't worry, once my mom goes in, she won't be coming out anytime soon," Zhou Jingming said with a teasing smile.

Su Xi looked at him, puzzled. "What do you mean?"

Zhou Jingming leaned close to her ear and whispered, "What do you think a man and a woman can do together?"

Su Xi realized what was happening.

Her face flushed red at a visible speed.

The next second, a small fist slammed into him, "You're so irresponsible. You think everyone is like you?"

"A man's true nature."

Zhou Jingming laughed sarcastically, "Even though my dad is in his fifties, he's still a man."

"They're probably just chatting inside; it's not what you're thinking."

Su Xi felt that Zhou Jingming was full of filth.

Aunt Shen and Mr. Zhou, how could that be...?

With a loud "bang!", it sounded like something heavy had crashed to the ground.

This startled Su Xi.

Just as she was about to go over and check on the situation, Zhou Jingming stopped her, saying, "The fighting is fierce, don't go."

"Zhou Jingming, you really are..."

Su Xizhen didn't know what to say.

But soon, she believed him.

There's a possibility that something inappropriate for children is happening inside.

If they stay here any longer, things might go wrong.

"He could get two women pregnant; he wasn't exactly a decent man when he was younger."

He learned many things from what he saw and heard since childhood.

Without his father setting a good example, there would be no Zhou Jingming today.

"Like father, like son. You and your dad are exactly the same." Su Xi rolled her eyes speechlessly.

Zhou Jingming corrected, "No, I'm not like him."

"What's different?"

In Su Xi's view, it was all due to her lustful nature.

Zhou Jingming leaned close to her ear and breathed hot air into her ear, saying intimately, "I've only ever slept with you."

Su Xi: "..."

This is impossible to have a proper conversation about.

How did we end up talking about this?

Zhou Jing has disappeared; the area downstairs is deserted.

The two walked out the door.

I was in a hurry when I got back, so I parked my car in front of my house.

As soon as she got in the car, Su Xi received a call from Si Nan.

Tell her that Situ is already on his way to France.

Su Xi was taken aback.

Situ's injuries haven't fully healed yet, and he's already rushing over there?

"Who sent this message?" Zhou Jingming peeked over and took a look.

Su Xi showed it to Zhou Jingming, "It's a compass, saying that Situ has already gone to France."

Zhou Jingming hummed in agreement.

He actually knew about it half an hour earlier.

Su Xi had already told Situ about Li Xueli's whereabouts. In order to make up for his past mistakes, Situ dragged his injured body to go there.

"Perhaps, his presence here could change this deadlock."

As a man, Zhou Jingming could see Situ's helplessness.

If it weren't for unavoidable difficulties...

Who would abandon their wife and daughter?

But for Zhou Jingming, if it were him, he would never make such a decision.

“Situ Ta is a member of the royal family of the Kingdom of Z.”

Su Xi still cannot accept this truth.

Situ Mingming is clearly a member of the Si family, so how did he become a citizen of Country Z?

Zhou Jingming remained calm and showed no emotion whatsoever.

Su Xi asked suspiciously, "You already knew?"

Zhou Jingming nodded. "I received the news a couple of days ago."

"You knew and you still didn't tell me?" Su Xi said angrily.

Zhou Jingming pinched her cheek. "It's just a guess, it hasn't been verified yet. I was planning to tell you after I found out more, but I didn't expect him to confess himself."

Yuan Shen has been investigating for so long before he has finally made some progress.

Situ's identity has always been a mystery.

Zhou Jingming was afraid of making a mistake, which is why he was even more careful.

Su Xi was a little confused. "He said that he had no choice but to rush back because of the unstable situation in the palace, but he could have taken my mother with him."

“Xi’er,” Zhou Jingming suddenly looked at her very seriously, “As a man, your responsibility is to protect your woman. The situation in the palace is dangerous. Taking your mother there would only make things more dangerous.”

“I think the reason he didn’t want to take your mother with him was to protect her. He just didn’t expect Li Xuemei to be so vicious and take advantage of the situation to persecute your mother.”
