Chapter 638: 138: Blushing_1

The butler’s words left no room for face-saving; since Loo Xiyue had sent him out to dismiss the Zhou Family, there were no plans to leave them any way out.

Zhou Yuanman was stunned on the spot, turning to Zhou Tongtong with narrowed eyes, "Tongtong, what’s going on here?"

Zhou Tongtong shrunk her shoulders, daring not to utter a word.

She was scared.

When her father got fierce, he even beat her mother.

She was certain she couldn’t escape either.

She was so regretful, regretting cutting ties with Shen Lijun.

Even more regret was that she hadn’t stood by Shen Lijun in her downfall.

If she had been the one to stand by Shen Lijun’s side through thick and thin, she would now be the Shen family’s benefactor.

Hearing this, the butler looked towards Zhou Yuanman, "It seems Mr. Zhou is still unaware of the full story."

At that, the butler paused before continuing, "When the Shen Family was being shaken by the storm, our young miss went to ask Miss Zhou for help. Yet Miss Zhou shut our young miss out and said hurtful words that they would never deal with each other again."

"As the saying goes, ’You’re nowhere to be seen when the sun sets behind the mountains; who are you when it rises again in the east?’ Our young miss said she truly scorns the idea of befriending someone like Miss Zhou! So, please leave!"

Zhou Yuanman was furious to the point of turning pale, pointing at Zhou Tongtong, "Did you say this?"

Fool!

She was a complete fool!

Zhou Tongtong, terrified, stammered, "No, no, I’ve never said such things! Junjun and I are such good friends, how could I possibly cut off relations with her! I truly didn’t!"

At that, Zhou Tongtong kneeled towards the butler, crying, "Butler grandpa, please let Junjun meet with me! I can explain to her! I really can explain! As long as she forgives me, I’m willing to do anything!"

The butler felt greatly satisfied seeing Zhou Tongtong like this.

He had long realized Zhou Tongtong was not good-hearted, but the young miss had been friendly with her.

"Stop kneeling, our young miss won’t see you!" the butler continued, "Everyone should be responsible for their own words and actions."

Loo Yiyi also kneeled alongside her daughter, "Butler Liu, could you please make an exception, we truly realize our mistake! I’ve been close with Sister Xiyue for so many years, and we share the surname Loo..."

The butler cut Loo Yiyi off, "Mrs. Zhou, when the Shen Family was down on its luck, why didn’t you think of the bonds between you and Mrs. Shen then? To think of it now, isn’t it too late?"

Such people are the epitome of social climbing and kicking down those beneath them.

If the Shen Family hadn’t risen again, she would never have come to apologize.

Loo Yiyi’s face was an indescribable mask.

The butler then looked at Zhou Yuanman, "Mr. Zhou, our master has been generous to you. Without his continuous support over the years, the Zhou Family’s business wouldn’t be where it is today. You forget your benefactor once you no longer need them, but you’ve forgotten your original intentions long ago!"

Some things the butler didn’t want to say.

But he was a witness to these events.

Even those of us who work for the Shen Family know how to be grateful, yet the Zhou Family, who benefitted greatly from our kindness, kicked us when we were down!

It’s truly disheartening!

This was also a way to vent on behalf of the master and mistress.

Zhou Yuanman was about to speak,

But the butler, as though he knew what Zhou Yuanman was about to say, squinted and declared, "Mr. Zhou, don’t say you were overseas all this time or that you were too busy. Even if you were busy, you should have received a call from our master. Where were you during the days our master was in the hospital? You hid like a turtle, not daring to show your head. Now that the Shen Family has regained its former glory, you turn up! People like you, who only share in wealth but not adversity, don’t deserve to associate with the Shen Family!"

With just a few words, the butler pierced through Zhou Yuanman’s façade.

Yes.

The butler was right.

Zhou Yuanman hadn’t torn his face off directly with the Shen Family, but his actions were even more disgusting than those who did, for he continuously ignored Shen Zhiqiang’s calls and dared not visit him in the hospital upon returning from abroad.

Because he feared the Shen Family would drag him down.

Zhou Yuanman almost lost his footing.

December in Qing City shouldn’t be too cold, but he felt the cutting wind to his bones, as if someone had poured a bucket of ice water over him from head to toe.

After finishing his piece, the butler turned and walked away.

Zhou Yuanman, watching the butler’s retreating figure, felt rage surging from within, and kicked Loo Yiyi, angrily exclaiming, "This is all your fault! It’s all because of you, this ruinous woman, offending Mrs. Shen! If not for you, how could our Zhou Family have ended up like this!"
