Chapter 249: My Brother’s Hypocrisy Has Been Seen Through (31)
Hu Yang lowered his head in thought and decided to send the photos first. The sooner he got the money, the easier it would be for him to leave and feel more at ease.
Just as Hu Yang turned on his phone and was about to click on WeChat, the page on the phone would not slide at all, as if it had malfunctioned.
Hu Yang was anxious and was about to turn off the phone and restart it, but the next second, the phone returned to normal.
He just breathed a sigh of relief, but then he thought of something and his heart tightened again. He hurriedly opened the photo album, but fortunately, the photos he had just taken were still there. Hu Yang breathed a sigh of relief and did not dare to delay any longer.
He immediately sent the photo to Qin Peng. The moment the photo was sent, the tension in Hu Yang's heart slowly disappeared, but he still felt a little inexplicably uneasy.
Then he turned on his computer and started editing his resignation letter.
After editing, Hu Yang was about to send it, but after hesitating for a moment, he decided to wait for Qin Peng's reply first.

next morning.
Shen Youan just received a prompt that the task was completed. It seemed that the photos sent by Hu Yang had been successfully received.
He had just woken up at this moment, and drowsily sat up from the bed and said to Nuozi: "Good morning, Nuozi."
"Good morning, An'an"
At this time, Nuozi, who was lying on the pure white ground, had not woken up yet, with his legs spread out. When he heard Shen Youan's voice, his round short ears moved, and he responded in a soft voice. As soon as he finished speaking, his eyelids began to droop again, and he fell asleep again.
Zou Xu came out of the bathroom and looked at Shen Youan who was lying in a daze on the bed. His dark eyes reflected the figure of the person on the bed, as if wanting to drown him in them.
Zou Xu walked over and sat down, stretched out his hand to pinch the man's face and said:
Good morning, baby
"Good morning, brother"
Shen Youan came back to his senses and subconsciously moved closer, sitting close to the person, looking a little silly and cute.
Zou Xu enjoyed his dependence, put his arm around him, and gently stroked Shen Youan's hair.
After a long while, Zou Xu saw that his eyes had become clearer, so he started to coax him to get up.
"Go wash up, it's time to go downstairs for breakfast"
"it is good"
After Shen Youan responded, he got out of bed and walked into the bathroom.
As soon as I entered the bathroom, I saw squeezed toothpaste and water in cups neatly placed there.
Shen Youan's beautiful round eyes were filled with joy, and he walked over in two steps to brush his teeth. When he came out after brushing his teeth, the room was empty and Zou Xu had already gone downstairs.
Downstairs, it seemed that there were guests arriving early in the morning. Shen Youan could hear Zou Yan's hearty laughter even before he went downstairs.
Halfway down the stairs, he suddenly remembered that he was still in his pajamas, so he turned around and went back upstairs to change his clothes.
In the hall.
Zou Xu sat on the sofa with a calm expression, listening to Zou Yan chatting with his old friend Zhou Jingshan.
The two hadn't seen each other for a long time. Zhou Jingshan had been ill before and had been abroad for nearly a year. He had only returned a few days ago. This morning, he came to the Zou family early in the morning and blocked them.
In Zhou Jingshan’s words, the company is a place to discuss things, but home is more cozy.
Zhou Jingshan was accompanied by his youngest daughter, Zhou Qinyao. Coincidentally, she was also a senior student at Huyang High School, in Class 2.
Zhou Qinyao picked up the tea, took a sip, and put it back. She felt a little depressed. After all, she didn't want to come, but her father insisted on taking her.
She raised her eyes and glanced at the cold Zou Xu over there, and snorted in her heart. Although Zou Xu was not as stupid as before, she still would not fall in love with him.
Zhou Qinyao thought so, but her eyes couldn't help but fall on the boy's perfect and handsome face.
Sure enough, after chatting for a while, Zhou Jingshan mentioned the matter between his own children and Zou Xu.
"By the way, your Zou Xu is a very promising young man now. He's even been trending on the internet lately and has become a role model for many young people. I heard he even opened a company and manages it very well with that kid from the Lin family. Our Yaoyao and your Zou Xu are also adults now, so... what do you think, Ayan?"
Zhou Jingshan took a sip of hot tea and said with a smile.
Glancing at Zou Xu over there, with a hint of admiration in his eyes, Zhou Jingshan didn't care about his indifference. After all, this is how people who accomplish great things should be, instead of being lazy all day long.
Zhou Qinyao felt strange when she heard this, and subconsciously retorted:
"Dad, why are you saying this again?"
When Zhou Jingshan heard her words, he glared at her and said with a hint of anger but also doting:
"Children should not interrupt when adults are talking"
Zhou Qinyao could only shut her mouth and stop talking, and she became even more displeased with Zou Xu.
After scolding Zhou Qinyao, Zhou Jingshan smiled and explained to Zou Yan:
"Children are ignorant, please don't be surprised, Ayan."
Zou Yan nodded, expressing his understanding. However, he laughed at Zhou Jingshan's words and said jokingly:
"Let them decide on their own about the children's affairs. Anyway, my brat is unwilling to take over our own business and has made great achievements outside. As a father, I can't do anything about him. Besides, the engagement was just a joke at the time. Jingshan doesn't need to take it too seriously."
When Zhou Jingshan heard this, he knew it was a rejection. In the past few years, their Zhou family had disappointed other people, thinking that Zou Xu was a hopeless case who could not inherit the great cause.
She never mentioned a word about this verbal engagement, and even avoided the question when Zou Yan jokingly mentioned it. It is only natural that she rejects it now.
However, the Zhou family is not in a good situation now. Although it is still a giant, it would be great if the two families could marry.
"Ayan is right. If that's the case, then it all depends on fate. Everything will eventually work out."
As he said this, he took the tea and wanted to toast Zou Yan, hoping that he would not have any grudge against what he had just said.
Zou Yan naturally responded. The two of them had a good relationship both in cooperation and in private. Moreover, Zou Yan didn't mind it at the beginning, let alone now.
Zou Xu at that time was not "excellent" enough, but in Zou Yan's opinion, his son did not need to cling to others, as there were many people who liked him.
Zhou Qinyao felt a little disappointed when she heard the results of the discussion. In fact, she didn't know why, because she obviously didn't care about Zou Xu.
Perhaps it was because her little sisters had been praising Zou Xu in front of her recently, saying how outstanding and handsome he was, which made her develop some inexplicable feelings towards him.
At this moment, Zou Xu had no intention of listening to what was being said over there. He was only thinking about why his baby hadn't come out yet.
He came down early just now because his aunt came up and called him down, saying that there were guests coming, and Zou Yan asked him to come down to say hello.
Zou Xu came down first, said hello, and then sat on the sofa without saying a word.
Zou Xu stared at the stairs and finally saw Shen Youan coming down. His calm eyes brightened up instantly.
Zhou Qinyao followed his gaze and saw the clean, thin and well-behaved boy coming down the stairs.
Shen Youan went down the stairs and for a moment, he didn't know where to go because he didn't know anyone there. After pausing for half a second, he saw Zou Xu greeting the people over there and walking towards him.
Zou Yan nodded and motioned him to go. Seeing this, Zhou Jingshan also asked a question.
"Did your wife bring the child?"
"Yes, he is quiet, sensible, and has good grades."
Because Zou Yan liked Shen Ling and was also very impressed with Shen Youan's usual performance, he praised him a few times.
"That's it"
Zhou Jingshan nodded and continued to talk about other things.
Zhou Qinyao looked at the figure not far away, her eyes dull for half a second. That was a different Zou Xu, who looked very gentle and made people feel safe.
Compared to the previously indifferent Zou Xu, Zhou Qinyao of course likes this type more, and unknowingly, she thinks more about it.
At this time, the aunt also came out with other breakfasts. Seeing the well-behaved young master eating so happily, she couldn't help but say:
"Eat more, there's more in the kitchen!"
"Okay, Auntie, the buns you make are delicious."
Shen Youan felt that this was the most fragrant bun. The saltiness was just right, the bun skin was soft, and the meat filling was so fragrant that he was intoxicated.
"Okay, okay, as long as the young master likes it."
Liu Yun couldn't stop smiling when he heard Shen Youan's praise.
