After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me

Chapter 1127: Blind Love Mess People Up

In Shao Kang's memory, his daughter had always been proud and aloof, a true rich young lady through and through. Growing up in a good family, pampered by him, and attractive, she had always been surrounded by boys trying to win her favor, but she had never given them a second glance.

However, after meeting He Ping, it was as though she had been cursed. She became completely obsessed with He Ping, to the point of being unrecognizable. It was completely out of character for her. According to her temperament, even if she liked He Ping, she would never have allowed him to treat her so coldly, especially when he behaved so poorly toward her. She had too much pride for that.

But now, there was no trace of her old self. Shao Kang hadn't noticed anything amiss before, but Zhouzhou's comment made him realize that something was terribly wrong.

His expression grew serious, and he gestured for Zhouzhou to come in, saying, "Little girl, come in and sit down. Let's talk."

His attitude had completely shifted from the earlier anger. Zhouzhou didn't mind and followed him inside.

Qin Er and Qin Lie exchanged glances. From their previous conversation, they had already guessed something, and now they were even more curious about what had happened.

Shao Kang poured them some water, but there was no time for pleasantries. He turned to Zhouzhou and quickly asked, "Little girl, you said something's wrong with Shanshan, what happened? Is it possible she's possessed by a ghost or something?"

Zhouzhou gave a wry smile and looked at him. "No, nothing like that. If it were, I would have noticed when I first met her."

Back when she had read Shanshan's fortune, Zhouzhou had focused mostly on her love life and hadn't noticed any issues with her character. Thankfully, Ancestral Master's talisman had alerted her to something unusual. But she still wasn't sure what was really going on with Shanshan.

Zhouzhou asked, "Uncle, has Shanshan ever gone through anything strange or unusual?"

Shao Kang furrowed his brows, thinking carefully for a moment. After two minutes, he slowly shook his head. "No, Shanshan's always been very capable and motivated. We had planned for her to take over the company after graduating from university. Who would have thought..."

His voice trailed off in frustration. "Who would have thought she met He Ping and started chasing after him? It's been two years since she graduated, but she still hasn't taken over the company."

Zhouzhou squinted her eyes. "So everything changed with He Ping, right? She started acting strangely only after meeting him?"

Shao Kang nodded firmly. "Yes, exactly."

He used to complain to himself about how hopeless a lovestruck girl Shanshan had become, but he never thought there was a deeper cause behind it.

Qin Er then spoke up. "Sometimes, love can really change a person's character."

Zhouzhou shook her head. "That's not it. A person's actions will definitely be influenced by their emotions, but Shanshan's change is way too extreme."

"The most important thing is, He Ping doesn't deserve such a drastic change in her."

Her words struck a chord with Shao Kang.

"Exactly!" He slapped his thigh in frustration and looked at Zhouzhou with admiration, "That guy is poor, sensitive, and fake to the extreme. He's always claiming he doesn't care about money, but he's obsessed with it."

Shao Kang's face twisted in mockery.

"I don't think there's anything wrong with loving money."

Sometimes, it's not about whether you like it or not. The reality is just like that.

"He Ping's mother is sick, but it's not like we caused it. We even gave him money for her treatment. Is there something wrong with that?"

Once he started venting, Shao Kang couldn't stop himself.

Zhouzhou nodded in agreement, "Brother Dafu's right, he's just jealous of the rich."
