They failed to entice Xiao Lingyu but were tricked by her instead. Then again, if the Zhou Family didn't have cracks, to begin with, Xiao Lingyu wouldn't be able to do anything to them.

However, the center of the crack was Zhou Huaying. When he heard the rumors, he wholeheartedly believed that it was indeed his eldest brother, Zhou Huaming, who had plotted to send his nephew to prison.

No matter how Zhou Huaming explained, Zhou Huaying would not listen. Even after Zhuo Guojian said something, Zhuo Huaying only replied, "If big brother really wants to prove that he loves Wei 'Er, then he should transfer the hotel to Wei 'Er now. After all, the hotel will be Wei 'Er's sooner or later. Big brother, you won't be so tired after Wei 'Er takes over the hotel. Dad, don't you agree with me?"

Zhou Huaying was trying to push Zhou Hongwei's agenda. Zhou Huaying was a tyrant before his brothers, but he was a coward around his son. Zhou Huaying feared his son and listened obediently to Zhou Hongwei's orders. Zhou Huaying understood that his carefree life came from his son, Zhou Hongwei.

Zhou Hongwei had completely inherited the characteristics of the Zhou family: Sinister, cunning, selfish, and greedy. He knew that he would eventually inherit the Zhou Family, but he was furious that his uncles wouldn't hand them over now. He was already 27. Gu Ziye, his peer, was already the general manager of the Gu Family Hotel, but he was only just the purchasing manager.

He once asked Zhou Huaming for the post of vice president, but he was rejected. Zhou Huaming said Zhou Hongwei needed more experience and the purchasing department was the best place for him to do that.

On one hand, Zhou Huaming did intend to groom Zhou Hongwei to be his heir, but at the same time, he couldn't let go of his power just like that. Therefore, he placed Zhou Hongwei in the purchasing department for now.

Zhou Huaying said, "Big brother, Wei 'Er told me several times that he didn't want to be the purchasing manager. He wants to be the president or vice president. However, you refuse to let go. Are you trying to make the Zhou Family's future heir lose face? Or you don't intend to give him the hotel at all? He told me he is very disappointed in you."

The accusation cut through Zhou Huaming's heart. He did everything for Zhou Hongwei, but in the end, he was questioned.

At that moment, he remembered what Gu Ziye said, 'But then, do you think your nephew will really take care of you and not throw you into a nursing home and pretend that you don't exist?'

Zhou Huaming thought with sadness. 'So that's what Zhou Hongwei thinks of me. I have treated him like my son since he was born. I did everything for him, but...'

Zhou Guojian narrowed his eyes and interrupted, "Huaming, Huaying, we can talk about that later. Now, we have to try to save Wei 'Er first."

He noticed that his eldest son was disappointed by his second brother. He felt alienated. That couldn't be allowed.

The Zhou Family only had one male heir, Zhou Hongwei. All the assets of the Zhou Family would belong to Zhou Hongwei. As for the daughters, they would be married off. Even if they didn't marry, they would not see a cent from the Zhou Family.

Zhou Huaming took a deep breath and said, "I've tried everything I could think of. Nothing is effective."

This displeased Zhou Huaying. "Big brother, why don't I believe you? Are you sure you've done everything you could?" He sneered. "Or you're trying your best to make sure Wei 'Er stays in jail? Don't you have many connections, then you should use them to haul Wei 'Er out! You must be doing this on purpose!" Zhou Huaying snorted. He never really respected his brother, to begin with.
