Zhou Jinxiu, who usually cowered before Zhan Beijue, dared to be so brazen today.
With one kick, the coffee table didn't tip, but the wine glasses shattered.
Red wine splashed onto Zhan Beijue's expensive shirt and pants, terrifying Lu Qingxu.
Even Lu Mingzhe, sitting opposite, changed his expression.
Only Zhan Beijue remained as unmoving as a mountain.
Zhou Jinxiu, fearlessly staggering, took a step forward, holding a wine bottle in one hand and pointing at Zhan Beijue's nose, shouting angrily.
"What's so great about you? Why are you always so arrogant? Huh?"
"Isn't it just because my aunt married into the Zhan family with her beauty, gaining an advantage from your ancestors, and having a few more cents in her pocket than us?"
"How much of your ability is truly yours? Don't you know yourself? Always looking down on people, what are you?"
Having known Zhan Beijue for so many years, this was the first time someone had dared to insult him like this.
And in public, no less.
Lu Qingxu was terrified and quickly stepped forward to pull Zhou Jinxiu back.
"You brat, how much have you had to drink today? Your brain is gone! Shut up, stop talking! Do you know this is your second brother!"
Zhou Jinxiu shrugged, forcefully shaking Lu Qingxu off, and then pointed at his nose again, cursing.
"Do I need you to tell me? I know who I am better than anyone!"
"I, Zhou Jinxiu, am not someone who likes to flatter and live by reading people's expressions. It's just Zhan Beijue, you're willing to fawn over him, I'm not!"
"I'm going to curse him today! Scum, beast, degenerate, a dog that bullies the weak and fears the strong! Curse him to death!"
"..."
He even cursed himself, and said he would flatter Zhan Beijue?
Although it was true, being spoken of in public was still quite embarrassing.
Lu Qingxu, who had intended to save him, now couldn't be bothered.
"You're truly a hopeless case. I tried to help you out of good intentions, and you curse me too?"
"Fine. If you want to court disaster, then do so. Don't regret it when you wake up, and don't say I didn't help you!"
"I don't need your help. I don't regret it!"
After speaking, Zhou Jinxiu swayed and turned back to Zhan Beijue.
"I'm going to curse you today, Zhan Beijue, you're scum, do you admit it?"
Zhan Beijue naturally did not admit it.
He was superior to Zhou Jinxiu in every way. Even if he were to be called scum, it wasn't Zhou Jinxiu's place to say it.
He took out his phone and calmly dialed his uncle's number. The call was answered quickly.
Zhan Beijue said nothing, turned on the speakerphone, and tossed the phone onto the coffee table.
"You continue."
Zhou Jinxiu: "I've disliked you for a long time! Since childhood, you've always stolen my thunder and suppressed me! Everyone praises you and revolves around you, I've long been unable to stand it!"
"You think you're really better than me? Heh, my dad is also a sycophant, he's flattered you for so many years, praising you like he's your father. It's normal that you don't know your own limits."
On the other end of the phone, Zhou's father's hair was about to stand on end upon hearing these outrageous words.
What was going on? Why was this kid picking a fight with Ajue?
He even cursed his own father, was he crazy?
"Zhou Jinxiu, what are you doing? Where are you? Have you been drinking? I shouldn't have let you out! You go out and drink and go crazy, I think you're tired of living!"
"Whose father are you? I don't have a father like you!"
The more his father cursed, the more energized Zhou Jinxiu became. He then picked up the wine bottle and walked to the coffee table, smashing the bottle onto the phone with a loud crash.
"I don't want to hear you lecture me anymore, shut up!"
The phone screen shattered, wine seeped in, and his father instantly fell silent.
The lively scene downstairs was oblivious to the commotion upstairs.
However, the few waitstaff upstairs were so scared they didn't know where to look.
Zhan Beijue glanced at the wine on himself, still unmoved.
He looked at him calmly, "Anything else you want to say? Continue. I'm giving you a chance to say it all at once."
Zhou Jinxiu: "I will, don't think I'm afraid!"
"How did Jiang Nan Fang offend you? She's beautiful and capable. If you don't like her, don't touch her, why treat her like that?"
"Aren't you always putting on a benevolent father persona in front of everyone? How good are you to your children? Yet you do such dirty things behind their backs?"
"After sleeping with her and getting her pregnant, you refused to take responsibility and told her to abort, and then you forced her away!"
"Zhan Beijue, with the little money in your pocket, you bully men and women, and act like a tyrant. What's the difference between you and an evil overlord?"
The surrounding people listened, completely bewildered.
But Zhan Beijue's calm face showed a slight reaction to these words.
His eyes darkened, and he looked at Zhou Jinxiu sharply.
"What did you say? Say it again."
"I said you got Jiang Nan Fang pregnant, forced her to abort, and now you're driving her away! Don't think no one knows about your good deeds!"
Zhan Beijue's face turned so dark it could drip water. "Who told you this?"
"You're acting innocent? Trying to tell everyone I'm slandering you?"
Zhou Jinxiu laughed sarcastically twice.
"Did you or did you not take off your pants, did you or did you not sleep with someone, don't you have any idea?"
"Or perhaps, you pretend to be unapproachable, cold and abstinent on the outside, but in reality, you change women every day, and you don't even know whose child it is?"
Zhan Beijue's mouth twitched almost imperceptibly.
Damn Jiang Nan Fang, so you really had nothing with Zhou Jinxiu!
Zhou Jinxiu was still babbling.
Zhan Beijue, having learned the truth, could no longer listen.
"Bang!" He kicked the coffee table in front of him, and stood up straight.
Thinking he had reached his limit and was about to hit Zhou Jinxiu, Lu Mingzhe quickly stepped forward.
"Ajue, calm down, calm down, don't bother with a drunkard."
Unexpectedly, Zhan Beijue had no intention of fighting him.
"Take him home, don't let him embarrass himself here. I have something to do, I'll be leaving first."
After speaking, he quickly rushed downstairs and left the bar directly.
Everyone was completely stunned.
What was going on with these two brothers?
What had happened?
Why was one more crazy than the other today?
Although he had been drinking, Zhan Beijue still drove recklessly to the hospital.
He felt the elevator was too slow, and he wished he could fly into the ward immediately to ask Jiang Nan Fang what was going on.
The child was actually his! And she was in the hospital! Why didn't she tell the truth earlier!
He sped all the way and finally reached the ward door.
Pushing the door open, he saw that it was empty. No one was inside.
Thinking he had gone to the wrong room, he stepped back a few paces and confirmed again.
No, it was the correct ward.
A nurse happened to pass by, and Zhan Beijue, like a bully, blocked her path.
The nurse was startled.
He asked coldly, "Where is the person in this ward? Where is Jiang Nan Fang? Why isn't she here?"
"She... she checked out. She didn't even complete the discharge procedures, and was nowhere to be found this afternoon. Don't you, as her family, know?"
This damned woman, her illness wasn't even cured, and she dared to leave without permission?
She was asking for death.
Remembering what Zhou Jinxiu had said, he was afraid she would leave with misunderstandings and quietly, just like six years ago.
Zhan Beijue cursed inwardly and quickly turned around and rushed into the elevator again.
