It is no surprise that the people of high society were constantly found embroiled in scandals and affairs of similar nature. Having illegitimate children in the family was not an issue exclusive to the Zhou family, but as far as the saying "do not wash your dirty linen in the public" went, the Zhou family was only dragging its name through the mud with Mrs. Zhou and Zhou Ning's actions.
Did the mother and daughter duo not realize that Lu Xingzhi was right there?
It was obvious that the woman in Lu Xingzhi's embrace was very important to him. Nobody had ever heard of a woman getting intimate with Lu Xingzhi, not even Chen Feitang had managed to do it. And yet Mrs. Zhou and Zhou Ning were brazen enough to include the unknown woman in their abuse of Zhou Weiqi.
The Zhou family had fallen out of prominence some years ago. Provoking Lu Xingzhi was just senseless; he had all the means to crush them. The only issue being when.
"What is going on here?" asked Old General Liang. He, along with General Chen, was just passing by when they witnessed the commotion.
"They snagged Master Zhou's number card and tried to cause a scene." The staff explained on the spot.
General Chen immediately knew that Zhou Ning was in on the chaos when he saw his own grandson, Chen Feibai, right there. He looked at the number card Zhou Ning was holding and snickered.
"Funny how you want the best seats without putting in an effort to contribute to the auction. Taking something that is not yours is not nice." General Chen suggested earnestly, before turning toward Chen Feibai and barking, "Get yourself over here right now! Go and sit with your cousin; why are you fooling around with this little rascal girl?"
