Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Zhou Jia guarded the bed and looked at the unconscious Old Master Zhou. He held his rough hand and muttered, “As long as you wake up, I’ll definitely talk to you properly. Didn’t you say that you’re very tough? Then wake up well. I’ll get someone to make you whatever you want to eat.”

Li Yu stood at the door and pushed Yangyang. “Go to Father and talk to Uncle.” Yangyang walked over in fear and saw Old Master Zhou lying on the bed. He thought for a moment and said, “Uncle, Yang’er entered the palace to study with the Crown Prince. Do you want to know what the palace is like? Wake up quickly and I’ll tell you.”

After Yangyang finished speaking, he saw that Old Master Zhou was lying on the bed and did not respond. He leaned into Zhou Jia’s arms and hugged his neck. He sobbed. “Father, what’s wrong with Uncle? Why can’t he wake up?”

Zhou Jia hugged his son and gently patted his back. “Uncle is too tired. Grandmaster said that he wants to sleep. He’ll wake up tomorrow.”

Li Yu stood at the door and looked at Zhou Jia, who was sitting in front of the bed and guarding Old Master. She thought that if Old Master Zhou was still as selfish and cold as before, he would not feel so terrible. Now that Old Master Zhou had changed, the relationship between the father and son had also improved. Yet he might not wake up from his injury…

Yangyang had played for a day and fell asleep soon after leaning in Zhou Jia’s arms. Zhou Jia carried Yangyang out of the house and handed him to Li Yu, who was guarding there. “Take the child back to rest first. I’ll guard here for the night. If he doesn’t wake up tomorrow, I Il bring him to our side.”

Li Yu took Yangyang and looked at Zhou Jia worriedly. “Don’t worry too much. Change guard with Zhao Cai and the others.”

“Yes!” Zhou Jia watched Li Yu carry Yangyang away and said to Zhao Cai, “Go and capture Zhou Xin to the old residence.”

Zhao Cai nodded and went out to the small courtyard where Zhou Xin and his mother lived.

After Zhou Xin and Zhou Yu fell out with Old Master Zhou back then, they took the remaining dowry from Old Madam Zhou and went to the Huang family to stay for a few days. When they were almost done spending the money in their hands, the Huang family began to mock the mother and children. Zhou Xin couldn’t stand this anger, so he rented a house in an alley in South city with Madam Huang and Zhou Yu.

After coming out, Zhou Yu was a little better. Seeing that there was no money at home, he knew to go out and find something to do. Zhou Xin was lecherous and liked to gamble. With some money in his hands, he was sent to the casino. After winning, he was sent to the brothel and lost all the remaining money.

Madam Huang was in a daze all day long. She did not care about the two brothers and still had to rely on Zhou Yu’s money to support her.

A few days ago, Zhou Xin stole the money that Zhou Yu had saved up to marry a wife and ran to the casino. In the blink of an eye, he lost all of it. He was afraid that Zhou Yu would find out, so he had designs on the old residence. After arguing with Old Master Zhou, he saw Old Master Zhou fall to the ground and hurriedly fled home to hide under the blanket.

When Zhou Yu returned from the restaurant, he saw that Madam Huang was still hiding in her room and not going out. Zhou Xin did not move either. He heated up the food he had brought back from the restaurant and brought it to Madam Huang before going to Zhou Xin’s room. Seeing him lying on the bed with his blanket covering him, he pulled his blanket away and said, “Why are you so honest today? Didn’t you go out to fool around?”

Zhou Xin pulled the blanket back and said in a low voice, “It’s none of your business. Just take care of yourself.”

Zhou Yu looked at him. “Did you do something bad?”

Zhou Xin covered his head and kept quiet. At this moment, there was a knock on the door. Zhou Xin grabbed Zhou Yu, who was about to open the door, and looked at him in fear. “Don’t open the door!”

Zhou Yu felt that something was wrong with Zhou Xin. “What did you do?

They’ve already come looking for you. How long have you been hiding?”

Zhao Cai knocked a few times outside. Seeing that no one answered the door, he jumped onto the wall and leaped into the courtyard. Hearing the brothers arguing, Zhao Cai walked to the door of the room. When Zhou Xin saw him, he pointed at him in fear and shouted at Zhou Yu, “How did he come in?”

Zhou Yu turned around and saw Zhao Cai. He said angrily, “Get lost! What are you doing at my house?”

Zhao Cai pointed at Zhou Xin. “Why am I here? Third Young Master, just ask second young master wnat ne did. second young Master, let’S go! DO you still want me to invite you?”

Zhou Xin shrank to the corner of the bed and shouted in horror, “I’m not leaving. I didn’t do it on purpose. I just pushed him gently. He lost his balance.”

“Old Master is lying in bed and unconscious. You’d better follow me to the old residence obediently. Don’t wait for me to make a move.”

Zhou Yu looked at Zhao Cai and said, “You mean my second brother beat up my father? He’s unconscious now?”

“Yes, Master instructed me to bring Second Young Master over.”

As Zhao Cai spoke, he walked towards Zhou Xin. Zhou Yu looked at Zhou Xin and roared, “Is what he said true?”

Zhou Xin pointed at Zhao Cai. “He lied to you. Why would I go to the old residence?! That old thing is thinking about that bastard now. After earning money, he would rather buy things for that brat than give them to us.”

When Zhao Cai heard him insult Zhou Jia and his son, it went forward and dragged him off the bed. ‘You’re worse than a pig and a dog. You pushed your own father to the ground and escaped without asking how he was. Your conscience has been eaten by a dog!”

Zhou Xin struggled desperately, but Zhao Cai twisted his hands and dragged him out. He threw him into the carriage and drove it back. Zhou Yu hurriedly followed him back to the old residence.

Zhao Cai carried Zhou Xin to Old Master Zhou’s door. Zhou Jia came out of the room and looked at him coldly. “You better beg him to wake up. Otherwise…”

Zhou Xin looked at the extraordinary Zhou Jia and roared with jealousy and hatred, “You’re no longer from our family. What right do you have to talk to me like this?”

Zhou Jia kicked him angrily. “No matter what identity I use, I will deal with scum like you.”

Zhao Cai looked at Zhou Xin, who was lying there like a pool of mud, and thought to himself, Old Madam Zhou might have had a grudge with the Zhou family in her previous life. She married into the Zhou family to take revenge. In just a few decades, she had harmed two generations of the Zhou family. No wonder people said that it was not easy to choose a mate.

When Zhou Yu arrived, he glanced at Zhou Xin, who was lying on the ground. He entered the Old Master’s room and saw that his head was wrapped in a white cloth that was stained with blood. He lay there motionless. Zhou Yu went forward and placed his hand under his nose. When he felt his breathing, he was relieved. He turned around and went out to help Zhou Xin up. The brothers stood at the side in silence.

Mr. Wen came out of the room and sighed when he saw them. After entering the room to take Old Master Zhou’s pulse, he said to Zhou Jia, “Jiahe, his pulse is more stable than before. If nothing goes wrong, he should be able to wake up.”

Zhou Jia heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that. He helped Mr. Wen out. “Sir, rest first. I’ll call you if anything happens.”

Mr. Wen patted Zhou Jia’s hand and persuaded, “Jiahe, it’s better to resolve enmity than to keep it alive. Let’s not talk about brotherhood.. Treat them as strangers!”
