Chapter 1160

"Isn't the Zhu family in Zhu City busy lately? Many inspections have been directed at them. Why are they still causing trouble for us?" Zhu Yanyi frowned slightly.

Xie Xinlian smiled gently. "It’s fine. Now that we are in the capital, they can’t come here to bother us even if they wanted to."

Zhu Yanyi frowned again. "What is the Zhu family thinking? Why do they always target our household?"

"Second Sister, I think you should have someone investigate. You are not the same as before. The Zhu family has some connection with us. If they are being used by others, it would be bad," Zhu Zhibin said. Although he was only ten years old, his intelligence was truly high, so he quickly got to the point.

Zhu Yanyi nodded. "I will have someone investigate this matter." Last time, she had asked Luo Gang to investigate the Zhu family in Zhu City, but she didn’t know the results yet. It seemed she needed to investigate thoroughly.

"Let’s not talk about such depressing things. Our new store opens tomorrow. Are you going to attend?" Zhu Shun Yao asked with a smile. He then turned to Zhu Yanyi. "Ani, you don’t need to go."

Zhu Yanyi spread her hands helplessly. "I didn’t plan to go anyway." Her expression was a bit gloomy. "Even if I wanted to go, I couldn’t."

"Dad, Second Sister knows her situation well. With her current state, she simply cannot appear in public places," Zhu Zhibin said with a hint of gloating. "See? This is the price of fame. Freedom is restricted. It’s better to be like me and First Sister."

Zhu Yanli smiled beside them. "I am very ordinary, I know that. But I think Doumiao might become famous in the future."

Zhu Zhibin waved his hand. "If I become famous, it will only be in academics. So I will still have freedom. Definitely not as miserable as my Second Sister."

"You brat! I haven’t beaten you for a while, and now you’ve grown bold, teasing your Second Sister," Zhu Yanyi said, feeling a mix of anger and embarrassment. She decided to teach Zhu Zhibin a lesson.

Zhu Zhibin grinned. "Sister, you are just angry because you’re embarrassed."

"You brat, teasing your sister. Let me teach you a lesson," Zhu Shun Yao said, naturally supporting his daughter.

Zhu Zhibin quickly hid behind Xie Xinlian. "Mom, am I adopted? Other families might not favor sons over daughters, but they still value their sons a bit. In our family, I find my status is always the lowest."

Xie Xinlian patted Zhu Zhibin’s head. "There’s no way around it. There are more women in our family. The minority must obey the majority. So your status and your father’s status have to be lower. Tell me, do you dare to compete with your dad for status?"

Zhu Zhibin shook his head directly. How many heads did he have to dare compete with his father for status? He could only sigh that his status in the family was indeed the lowest.

Of course, this was just a joke. Regardless, the family reunion was very happy.

The next day, Zhu Shun Yao and Xie Xinlian took Zhu Yanli and Zhu Zhibin to attend the opening ceremony of their Azure Sovereign Vegetable Supermarket. Zhu Yanyi stayed home to read books, taking it easy.

Luo Gang went to handle matters regarding Chen Lu and Qiu Meiyun.

Chen Lu and Qiu Meiyun had been working very seriously since they arrived. However, because the work was light and due to Zhu Yanli’s attitude, they had almost forgotten their identity as bodyguards. Luo Gang’s appearance undoubtedly reminded them of this.
