Chapter 726: False Feelings and True Intentions
After Zhou Yanheng rested for a week, he was transferred from the critical care unit to the general ward. In order to keep an eye on this only child, the Zhou family booked an entire floor of the ward.
Three days ago, the Zhou family opened visiting hours. In the past few days, there has been a constant stream of people coming to the ward. They are either powerful people who are on good terms with the Zhou family or Zhou Yanheng's lackeys.
Just when things finally quieted down, Guan He and Qiao Jinjin suddenly came to visit again.
In front of outsiders, Guan He is the little bully of Jinggang who has the final say. In front of Zhou Yanheng, he is a chatterbox with overflowing emotional value. He has been cursing since he entered the ward.
"That brat Shen Qingyu has been so mean since he went to Xigang. The Shen family only cares about Shen Lanxi, otherwise he wouldn't have been demoted to the Gu family's lair. I don't know what he's showing off for."
Qiao Jinjin poured himself a glass of water and made an objective assessment, "That's not necessarily true. I heard that everyone in Xiwan respects and fears Young Master Shen. Previously, several families relied on their relationship with the Gu family's old house to offend him, and he simply kicked them out of Xiwan."
Guan He looked suspicious. "Who told you that? How come I don't know? Are you talking nonsense? How could that idiot have such ability? But! It's not surprising, he just relied on the power of others."
Qiao Jinjin, "You two have been fighting since you were little. When have you ever gotten the upper hand over Shen Qingyu? Why haven't you learned your lesson yet?"
"Hey?" Guan He was dissatisfied. "I was a coward last time..."
"You just said that the Shen family doesn't plan to compete in this presidential election?" The person on the hospital bed suddenly spoke, interrupting their conversation.
Guan He was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Zhou Yanheng, "Yeah, that's what my dad said."
In fact, Guan Lou also said that you must not tell anyone about today's visit to the Shen family, not even Zhou Yanheng. However, Guan He chose not to hear it.
Zhou Yanheng lowered his eyes, obviously thinking about something.
Guan He looked at Qiao Jinjin and saw that he was also confused. He rolled his eyes and coughed lightly. "Oh, let's not talk about these spoiling topics. I want to share some great news with you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Yanheng raised his eyes and looked over. "Great news?"
"Yes!" Guan He raised his head and curled his bangs, "I'm getting married."
"Get married?" Qiao Jinjin frowned. "What kind of girl is so pessimistic?"
Guan He's grinning mouth instantly stiffened, and he pushed Qiao Jinjin with a dark face, "Get out of the way, this is my life, be serious."
Zhou Yanheng was very serious. He stared at him for a moment and said slowly, "Su Yun?"
When this name came out, both of them were stunned.
Qiao Jinjin didn't expect Su Yun to have such poor vision, while Guan He didn't expect Zhou Yanheng to have such a sharp eye.
Guan He, "How did you guess that?"
Zhou Yanheng, "Do we need to guess?"
He had already seen that Guan He had special feelings for Su Yun, but Guan He had no way of dealing with someone like Su Yun. Coincidentally, Su Yun came to him on her own initiative, so he thought of training her as a prey.
Unexpectedly, he found a more interesting prey. At that time, the matter of the real and fake daughter was a hot topic, so Zhou Yanheng let Su Yun go after making a choice.
Qiao Jinjin still couldn't believe it.
To be fair, apart from the stain of living in the slums at the beginning, Su Yun is almost the most perfect marriage partner in the minds of the noble ladies in Jinggang. Given the temperament of the old man of the Su family, he would definitely try to climb the high branch of Shen Lanxi, so how could he fall for Guan He?
Guan He scratched his head and smiled. He was about to explain when he saw Qiao Jinjin's eyes and his face darkened instantly. "What are you looking at me with? Am I bad?"
Qiao Jinjin was amused by him. "You can fool others with this, but how dare you ask me in front of me? Aren't you okay? If you dare to marry my sister, I will beat you to death!"
"...Look down on me?" Guan He tapped Qiao Jinjin's shoulder. "Let me tell you, my father has already taken care of this matter. Just wait and see."
Qiao Jinjin brushed off the dust on his shoulders and said, "I'm not even looking at shit."
He doesn't like Su Yun, so what does her blindness have to do with him?
Guan He suddenly thought of something and his expression became more restrained. "Um, Lao Qiao, I have something I want to talk to Ah Heng about alone. You go out first."
Qiao Jinjin glanced between the two of them and nodded, "Okay."
After Qiao Jinjin closed the door, Guan He slowly walked to the bedside and scratched his neck uncomfortably, "Ah Heng, I have something to ask of you."
Zhou Yanheng, "Is it about Su Yun?"
Guan He's eyes flickered a little, "Han Yang said, you...that..."
Zhou Yanheng raised his eyes, "Do you want to ask me if I have ever touched Su Yun?"
Guan He didn't dare to look into his eyes and nodded very slightly.
He had been brooding over what Han Yang had said before. He hadn't dared to ask because he felt it would be embarrassing to question his good brother over a woman. But now that Su Yun might become his wife, he felt bad if he didn't ask.
Zhou Yanheng saw his dilemma and said calmly, "So what if you've touched it? So what if you haven't?"
Guan He's heart sank when he heard the first two words. He recovered and took a full half minute to recover. He scratched his ear and said, "If she did, give me the photo and don't mess with her again. If she didn't, just pretend I didn't ask. Han Yang said she took off her clothes. If you have the photo, give it back to me."
“…” Zhou Yanheng closed his eyes.
Guan He suddenly became anxious and stepped forward to grab Zhou Yanheng's quilt, "Heng, give them to me. There's no use for you to keep those photos."
Zhou Yanheng frowned and slapped his hand away, "How many times have I told you, I don't have the habit of filming what I do."
Guan He looked desperate, "That means sleeping..."
Zhou Yanheng interrupted coldly, "I haven't touched Su Yun."
Guan He's expression froze, his eyes gleaming, "Really?"
"She did come to me for help and showed her sincerity, but there are so many people who come to me every day to recommend themselves, and she is not the prettiest one, so I won't lie to you." Zhou Yanheng didn't want to explain at first, but if the Su family and the Guan family really got married, he didn't want Su Yun to be the lightning rod between him and Guan He.
Guan He believed what he said and slapped his thigh in anger, "Fuck! Ah Heng, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to question you. It's all Han Yang's fault. He said it as if it were true. I..."
"Han Yang?"
Guan He nodded. "When we were on Whale Island, I deliberately made fun of Yu Sheng. Su Yun couldn't stand it and stood up for Yu Sheng. Han Yang told Su Yun to take off... take off her clothes in front of everyone."
Zhou Yanheng didn't care at all, "So that's why you asked me for photos?"
Guan He felt a little guilty, "I was wrong. I'm sorry, Ah Heng."
Zhou Yanheng suddenly thought of something, his eyes darkening slightly, "You just said, in front of everyone?"
Guan He reacted immediately, his expression subtle, "Yes, in front of everyone, including Jiang Huashan..."
“…” Zhou Yanheng frowned.
Guan He approached cautiously, "Ah Heng, what's wrong with you? You don't... care about what Jiang Huashan thinks of you..."
Zhou Yanheng raised his eyes, his pupils were dark.
Guan He immediately fell silent, covering his mouth. Suddenly, he remembered something and couldn't help but shrink back. "That's not right. I heard that you and Shen Mianzhi were together on a deserted island, fighting for life and death for several days and nights. You..."
Before he finished speaking, a familiar voice suddenly rang out from outside the door.
"Brother Jin, why are you standing outside the door? Is there anyone inside?"
Guan He's eyes lit up, he pointed at the door and opened his mouth, "Shen, Mian, Zhi..."
The dim light in Zhou Yanheng's eyes turned into a deep look, his expression was cold and indifferent, "You can go now."
