The lazy cat master's secrets were revealed, and the male protagonist was thinking about him

Chapter 239 Illegitimate Son

Zhou Zhou raised his eyebrows and wanted to raise his hand to say hello, but then he thought that Gu Yuanci might not know him, so he gave up.

At this time, the elevator door on the side of the restaurant opened, and a man in a gray shirt and casual trousers walked out. Zhou Zhou sat up straight with his eyes slightly narrowed.

[The main star is really small. I saw four familiar faces in the same place on the same day. ]

Zhou Jin walked straight to the window seat in the restaurant with a gloomy face. His long legs formed an unnatural arc as he walked. He didn't pay attention to other people's gazes, and his brows were full of annoyance.

Yesterday, Zhou Jin was invited by his arch-enemy Gu Yuanci to discuss business here. The other party deliberately toasted him, one glass after another. If Zhou Jin had not been able to drink a lot, he would have been drunk by that insidious smiling tiger.

However, after waking up, I felt pain all over my body, as if I had been beaten up, even though I was still awake before going to bed last night.

There seemed to be a blank in his memory. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't remember what happened after he fell asleep last night.

He put all the blame on Gu Yuanci. If Gu Yuanci hadn't kept asking him to drink for various reasons, if he hadn't suddenly gone crazy and decided to meet in this remote and ambiguous place...

He put one hand on his forehead, his slightly messy hair falling between his eyebrows. Out of the corner of his eye he saw a pair of expensive high-end leather shoes on the smooth floor. He knew who they belonged to without even looking.

Gu Yuanci was the product of a one-night stand that happened to Master Gu while he was out traveling. Before he was eight years old, he had been living on an economically backward planet. It was not until his biological mother was abducted, raped and murdered by cruel space pirates that he was taken back home by Master Gu.

Zhou Jin's father and Mr. Gu were old friends and they had frequent contacts on a daily basis. Therefore, when Zhou Jin was twelve years old, he met Gu Yuanci, who was only eight years old.

The day they first met was the fifteenth birthday party of the eldest son of the Gu family. Zhou Jin attended the party with his father. Because he didn't like the hypocritical conversations between the guests, he came to the back garden alone.

The Gu family's businesses cover a wide range, and they do almost anything that can make money, following the economic trend. The assets accumulated over the years are enough for the young masters of the Gu family to squander for several lifetimes.

He didn't like the personalities of the three young masters of the Gu family. They were arrogant, self-righteous, and treated ordinary citizens badly.

At a banquet two years ago, he witnessed with his own eyes the bad behavior of the eldest son of the Gu family. He treated a frail old man like a dog and rode him like a horse. After playing around, he ordered his servants to break one of his legs and said arrogantly, "This is what I get for stealing from my Gu family. Anyone who protects him is going to have a hard time with me!"

The old man curled up, hugged his twisted legs and cried heartbreakingly, "I didn't steal anything, you checked the surveillance and searched my whole body, knowing that I was innocent!"

Zhou Jin didn't want to recall the subsequent scene. The old man was most likely no longer alive.

"Cough cough..."

Suddenly, a violent cough was heard in a dark corner of the back garden.

Zhou Jin's whole body tensed up, his thoughts were interrupted, and he stared warily at the swaying flowers.

"Who's there!" He was only twelve years old at the time, and his clear childish voice was mixed with a hint of panic.

All the guests were in the banquet hall, which had excellent sound insulation. Zhou Jin could only hear a rustling sound from the flowers and took a step forward hesitantly.

"I saw you, come out, don't hide there!" Zhou Jin's face was tense and his voice was a little lower.

"Cough...cough..."

The violent coughing sound was heard again, and then a pitch-black head popped out.

In the dim light, Zhou Jin stared at the man intently. He was a child with sunken cheeks and hair that fell to his shoulders like weeds. It seemed that he had not taken a bath for a long time, and there was a faint unpleasant smell coming from him.

"Who are you? What are you doing hiding here? Come out!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the child slowly walked out of the flowers, exposing his entire body to Zhou Jin's eyes.

Looking at the child who was a head shorter than him, Zhou Jin let out a breath and his tense body gradually relaxed.

"Are you dumb? Speak."

The child only opened his big, round, light brown eyes and stared at Zhou Jin timidly.

"Cough cough cough..."

He suddenly bent over and started coughing convulsively, finally falling to his knees, clutching his stomach and whimpering in pain.

Zhou Jin was frightened and subconsciously moved over to hold his dirty, thin arm. He felt a burning heat coming from him. "What's wrong with you? Do you have a fever? Whose child are you? I...I'll take you to see a doctor."

He had been exercising with his father since he was young, so his physique was naturally much stronger than that of a child. He picked up the person easily and walked quickly towards the banquet hall.

Unlike the glamorous guests inside, the child's clothes were dirty and smelly. After Zhou Jin carried him into the banquet hall, he quickly attracted a lot of strange looks.

The eldest son of the Gu family was surrounded by a group of handsome men and beautiful women. When he saw the person in Zhou Jin's arms from afar, his face immediately turned bad.

He couldn't understand why his father wanted to bring this illegitimate son back to the Gu family today. Not only did he bring him back, but he also let him out. The guests surrounding him couldn't help but start talking about it out of curiosity.

"That's the young master of the Zhou family, right? Why did he bring in a little beggar?"

"I can smell his stench from five meters away. How long has it been since he took a shower?"

"Master Gu, do you know that child?"

Young Master Gu had a gloomy face and said in a cold voice: "I don't know him. He might have sneaked in through the dog hole."

There was no way he could admit that the illegitimate child was his brother.

"Dad, he has a fever and is coughing badly. It seems like something is blocking his throat and he's having difficulty breathing." Zhou Jin ran to his father holding the person in his arms.

He knew that the Gu family were not good people, so he could only ask his father for help.

Mr. Zhou was reminiscing about the past with some good friends. He was not annoyed when Zhou Jin interrupted his conversation. Instead, Mr. Gu's face turned dark and blue, looking extremely ugly.

"Why did he get out, Butler Li, how did you look at him!" Mr. Gu suppressed his anger and scolded the butler who arrived in time.

"I'm sorry, I just went to the bathroom and couldn't find you when I came out. I'll take you back right away!" Butler Li shivered and reached out to take the child away.

Zhou Jin pursed his lips and said nothing more. Since the child belonged to the Gu family, it was not appropriate for him to interfere too much.

However, the child seemed to be confused due to the fever, and his hands were tightly wrapped around his arms with great strength.

It was hard to imagine how such a skinny child could have so much strength. Butler Li was unable to do anything with him for a while.

Zhou Jin thought for a few seconds and said, "I'll go with him. Also, let's ask a doctor to come and see him."

"Xiao Jin." Mr. Zhou did not agree with his words and warned him.

He knew the child's identity and as an outsider he should not interfere in the Gu family's affairs, even though he had a good relationship with Mr. Gu.

Zhou Jin hesitated, but after hearing the child's painful groan, he carried the child and followed Butler Li out of the banquet hall.

From then on, his bond with Gu family's second son, Gu Yuanci, began from this moment.

In front of him, Gu Yuanci was a harmless child. His eyes that always showed a smile made Zhou Jin mistakenly believe that his personality was the same as his appearance, well-behaved and cute.

Until one day, the well-behaved little white rabbit showed him the fangs hidden deep in its heart, and he finally saw the other's true face.
