Although Family Mu was the descendant of a military family, they had been in business for many years and had long become the strongest business empire in the capital.
Not to mention the four wealthiest families in Hu City, even the business families in the capital had to build a good relationship with Family Mu.
"Are you talking about Chen Zhou? Today, he went to Qing Zhi with Wanwan. He said that he wanted to take a look at the campus here. "Mrs. Mu smiled." You know that young people are very active. We can't control them. "
"I see." Zhong Manhua felt a little uncomfortable. "Sister-in-law, I've troubled you these days. I plan to bring Chen Zhou back to Family Ying."
The Zhong Family was her maternal family, but she had married into a Family Ying family, so she had to consider Family Ying.
"Bring her back?" Mrs. Zhong's expression instantly turned ugly. "Why do you suddenly want to bring her back? Didn't you say that you were afraid that the adopted daughter would offend Chen Zhou, so you sent her to the Zhong Family? "
Zhong Manhua was embarrassed and embarrassed. "Zijin has already moved out. There's no such thing as offending her."
"Moved out?" Mrs. Zhong was surprised. "Didn't you bring her here from a small county? You're actually willing to move out? "
Zhong Manhua didn't answer. She only said, "Chen Zhou was personally handed over to me by Mrs. Mu. It's better for her to stay in Family Ying."
"Manhua, you're wrong." Mrs. Zhong was also very tough. "Xiao Xuan is abroad, and there's no one in Family Ying who is the same age as Chen Zhou. Do you want her to be bored alone?"
"How about this? Let Wanwan take care of her first. When Xiao Xuan comes back, it won't be too late to let Chen Zhou go to Family Ying."
To be able to marry into the Zhong Family, Mrs. Zhong was no pushover.
It was such a good opportunity to get in touch with Family Mu. Since Zhong Manhua had given it to her, how could she let it go?
Zhong Manhua opened her mouth, but couldn't think of a good reason. She could only agree. "That's it then. Xiao Xuan will be back in mid-June. There are only a few days left."
Mrs. Zhong frowned slightly.
So fast?
It was already the 31st of May.
Mrs. Zhong's thoughts turned a thousand times, but she already had an idea in her heart. She smiled again and said, "Okay, let's do that."

Noon.
During the meal, Wen Tinglan only ate rice and did not touch the dishes at all.
He seemed to have returned to his protective shell, refusing to communicate with the outside world.
Wen Tinglan had not been in a good mood for the past two days. Even if he tried his best to hide it, Ying Zijin could tell.
She had studied micro-expressions before. Even if it was only a fifth of a second, she could catch it.
"I'm fine." Wen Tinglan only clenched his chopsticks when he heard her question. "The college entrance examination is coming soon. I'm under a lot of pressure."
Ying Zijin was silent for a while.
Even if Wen Tinglan had basically recovered, he was still used to isolating himself from his emotions and was unwilling to say anything.
When she was bitten by a snake, Wen Tinglan carried her to the hospital. Even when he sprained his ankle severely, he did not say a word.
"If there's anything, just tell me." Ying Zijin put an apple in his mouth. "It's not good for your condition to hide it in your heart."
"I'm really fine." Wen Tinglan lowered his head. "Sister, you should go and rest. You just got into a car accident a while ago. I'm fine."
Ying Zijin did not ask any more questions. She knew that if she continued to ask, the effect would be the opposite of what she wanted.
She picked up her chopsticks and picked up some food for him.
However, Wen Tinglan broke the silence after eating a mouthful of rice. "Sister, are you really going to have nothing to do with Family Ying in the future?"
"Yes, I'm not." Ying Zijin leaned against the chair lazily. "You can hit me whenever you want."
The teenager's expression was slightly broken.
"You reminded me." Ying Zijin seemed to be deep in thought. "From tomorrow onwards, you'll run five kilometers with me every day to strengthen your body."
The teenager's expression was completely broken.
He should not have talked to his sister.
He was so unlucky.
**
Wen Tinglan returned to class gloomily. He took out the pillow and earplugs that Ying Zijin had prepared for him and started to practice.
Ying Zijin stood at the entrance of Year Three's class for a while and called out to the class monitor.
The class monitor was also a boy. He was a little reserved. "Hello, sister."
Although the Year Three students were older than Ying Zijin, they were used to calling her sister like Wen Tinglan.
Moreover, they also knew that there was a pervert who scored full marks in the Year Two mid-term exam in the Elite Class.
They would even be willing to call her Grandma, let alone Sister.
As long as they could learn something.
Ying Zijin glanced at Wen Tinglan and said in a low voice, "Sorry to trouble you. Let's talk over there."
The class monitor scratched his head and followed her.
"Did something happen in the past few days?" Ying Zijin asked. "Xiao Lan's mood is not right."
"Sister, don't tell Tinglan that it was us who said that." The class monitor hesitated for a moment before saying, "Sister, you know that the school has three interview qualifications for Norton University, right?"
Ying Zijin nodded. "Take it."
"The interview qualifications were agreed upon long ago. Two will be given to the International Class and one will be given to the top student in the grade, which is Tinglan," the class monitor said. "After all, he scored full marks in the Tri-School Joint Exam."
The Tri-School Joint Exam meant that the top three high schools in Hua University would take the exam together.
The exam was naturally difficult, but it was far worse than the Elite Class' exam.
"Norton University's interview was a few days after the college entrance exam. It wasn't that long ago, and Tinglan had been preparing for it for a long time." The class monitor was furious. "In the end, the day before yesterday, the teacher who was fired from the International Class came and said that the interview qualifications would not be given to Tinglan, because, because …"
Ying Zijin finished what he didn't say, "Because I'm his sister."
"Sister, you can't be blamed for this." The class monitor was anxious. "That He guy is using his power to avenge private grudges. He's too petty. It's just a pity that Tinglan …"
With Wen Tinglan's IQ, it was safe for him to enter Norton University.
But without the interview qualifications, it was useless no matter how talented he was.
Just yesterday, the entire Grade Three Elite Class protested, but He Xun remained unmoved.
Although Norton University's interview qualifications were given by the principal, He Xun still had to lead the team to Norton University.
If he was unwilling, Wen Tinglan would not be able to go.
The most important thing was not that his interview qualification had been taken away. It was that Harmony had said in front of Wen Tinglan that he was not allowed to be interviewed because he was Ying Zijin's younger brother. That would be a huge blow to his psyche.
The Grade Three Elite Class also knew about his illness, so they usually got along with him carefully.
Wen Tinglan was two years younger than them, so he took care of his younger brother.
"I understand." Ying Zijin was expressionless. "Don't let him know. I'll handle this."
"Sister, don't worry. We'll comfort Tinglan." The class monitor hesitated. "Sister, don't go looking for that He guy. Tinglan definitely doesn't want you to get into a conflict with him, so he didn't tell you."
"Okay, I know." Ying Zijin said faintly, "Thank you for telling me. Go back and focus on your exams."
Hearing this, the class monitor suddenly took three steps back.
Then, he took out a pen from his bag, put his palms together, and bowed three times to the girl.
Ying Zijin was thinking about something, so when she noticed his actions, he had already finished bowing.
The class monitor took a deep breath and ran away. "Hahahaha, you idiots are done for. I'm praying to Yingshen today. I'll definitely do better than you guys in my exams!"
His devilish laughter echoed throughout the entire corridor.
Ying Zijin was speechless.
No wonder Wen Tinglan said that his classmates were stupid.
She thought so too.
**
After He Xun was fired by Qing Zhi, he rented a single apartment next to Qing Zhi.
However, the conditions of this apartment were far worse than the school's. He Xun was used to living in the school's house, so he was not used to this place. There was no one to cook for him.
However, he had no choice. Before the interview at Norton University ended, he could not leave this place.
The elevator in this apartment was broken, and the property management had not sent anyone to fix it.
Today, he went to the supermarket to buy groceries and had to climb eighteen floors.
When He Xun was paying the bill at the supermarket, his mood was extremely low.
He carried the shopping bags and walked out with a cold expression.
As soon as he walked out of the supermarket, he was kicked.
This kick landed on his abdomen, accurately hitting the most painful spot.
She did not show any mercy and used a lot of strength.
"Bang!" He Xun fell backward and fell on the glass door of the supermarket.
He Xun was suddenly attacked. No matter how good his temper was, there was a thin layer of anger in his eyes.
He supported himself on the glass door and stood up. When he looked up, he saw the girl standing against the light.
Her silhouette was hazy and her face was cold.
He Xun was stunned for a moment after not seeing her for more than half a month.
"You know that Wen Tinglan is my brother, so you took away his interview rights? You even said that to him? "
Other than the public question, this was the first time Ying Zijin had said so much to him.
However, her eyes did not fall on him. It was as if she regarded him as air, cold and cheerless.
Suddenly, He Xun felt like he was in a sorry state.
However, following that, he felt somewhat carefree.
"Are you angry?" He Xun did not feel that there was anything wrong. "Yes, you should be angry because I took away what your brother deserved. However, this is the law of survival in society."
"Things that don't belong to you will be taken away."
He Xun even smiled faintly. Using the advantage of his height, he looked down at her from above.
At this moment, he finally had the right to be arrogant again. "If you really have the ability, then give your brother the right to interview for Norton University's D-grade school."
"But you don't. You don't even know where Norton University is."
Ying Zijin finally looked at him. "Who told you that I'm going to give him a D-grade school?"
