Zhou Weiqi abruptly raised his head and looked toward Mr. Zhou, his gaze vacant and empty. He then stood there with a cold grin on his face.
“I know you don’t care for the name of Zhou; you can still have your mother’s surname. However, don’t forget the promise you made to her; severing ties with us means that you are dishonoring her. You have no right in taking her name; if she’s still alive, would she let you have it?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMr. Zhou’s statement erupted out of the blue, shaking Zhou Weiqi to his core.
“Outrageous!” Jiang Yao could not help but remarked. How dare he mention Zhou Weiqi’s mother, the one person he cared for the most! What a shameless man!
“What else can you do other than deceiving naïve little girls?” Chen Xuyao almost threw a flying punch at Mr. Zhou.
“Yes, I made the promise, but you have no right in mentioning my mother! The one dishonoring her is not me, it’s you!” Zhou Weiqi growled through gritted teeth. “How dare you, after what you’ve done to her! You swindled her devotion for you, duped her into a relationship and what was the outcome? She was denounced by everyone and lived the rest of her life in depression! You have a family, and yet you still went after my mother! All her suffering and pain were caused by you, you don’t have the right to even talk about her!”
With a loud bang, Zhou Weiqi kicked the table with his foot. The marble coffee table was heavy and stood still but the loud sound was heard and sent shockwaves into everyone else’s heart.
“Do you think I f*cking care about the Zhou family! You deserve none of us! What’s so great about the Zhou family? Why do I even care if I’m a part of it? How shameless you must be to actually question me and my fidelity toward my mother!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEveryone had their own limits, and Zhou Weiqi’s limit was his mother.
He could stand insults and provocation hurled his way, but he could not allow Mr. Zhou to disrespect his mother like that.
If Zhou Weiqi had any reservations about leaving the Zhou family, he had none now.
What was there to hesitate about?
Everything his mother did only extended her suffering onto him, why did he have to live with such humiliation?
“I don’t care if you decide to publish the declaration or not, I am telling you this today! I do not see you as a father anymore! Whatever happens to you is none of my business! We have no reason to see each other ever again!” Zhou Weiqi blurted out. “It’s up to you if you want to publish it. If you do it, you may earn some favors from the Du family, if you don’t, I am only going to cheer on the sidelines when my buddies decide to bring wrath upon you!”
Lu Xingzhi stood up suddenly and gently placed his hand on Zhou Weiqi’s shoulder. He spoke very gently, “Weiqi, my parents will not mind a new family member, you can take the name of Lu Weiqi from now on.”
