Zhou Yi Yi was furious. Tonight, she had started to see Xu Ke in a slightly different light. He had been polite to her at the mansion gates and had even told Wang Qiya he wouldn't hold her actions against her. She'd even begun to wonder if she had misunderstood him at the bar. But now, Xu Ke's single word—'omen'—had shattered that fledgling impression, and her disdain for him reached its peak.
Zhou Qingzhi placed a hand on his daughter's shoulder, stopping her from saying anything irrational. He then stared at Xu Ke. "Dr. Xu, my father may have wronged you, and you can take it out on me, his son. But aren't some of your words a bit too excessive?"
If not for the fact that Xu Ke had saved Xiao Jie, he would have thrown him out right then and there.
"Doctor Xu, if my father has done something wrong, you can direct your anger at us, his children. But why say something like that?" Zhou Xiuyun said coldly. "Do you really think the Zhou Family can be bullied?"
