Chapter 284: Master, There’s a Man Looking For You

Early in the morning, Zi Yi made her way to the hospital.

Elder Dou had already passed the critical period and had been transferred to a VIP ward.

The majority of the Dou Family members had returned to rest when Zi Yi arrived.

However, all four of her uncles were present and they were clearly waiting for her.

She stood before them and called out, “Eldest Uncle, Second Uncle, Third Uncle, Fourth Uncle.”

“Little Zi, come take a seat.”

Dou Xiaoyong pointed at the sofa opposite of them.

Elder Dou’s ward was similar to an apartment. There was a hospital bed inside and a living room on the outside. They were currently sitting in the living room.

Other than her four uncles, Dou Zerui, Dou Xiangling, and Dou Yue’er were also present.

Zi Yi sat opposite of them alone and the situation appeared as if she was about to be interrogated.

However, she did not panic in the slightest and looked at them calmly.

Dou Jingning was the first to speak. “Little Zi, you made the greatest contribution to the success of your Grandfather’s operation. On behalf of the Dou Family, I would like to thank you.”

Zi Yi pursed her lips and remained silent.

Dou Xiaoyong added on. “We apologize for our previous attitudes.”

The four middle-aged men then unexpectedly stood up in unison.

The three Dou Family siblings were shocked at the scene.

Zi Yi had also stood up. When they had bowed to her, she said, “My previous behavior made it impossible for you to have had a good impression of me and it’s normal for you to hate me. There’s no need to apologize.”

What was wrong, was wrong.

She could not accept only the original owner’s body and not the faults she had committed in the past.

The Dou Family had already shown their magnanimity by not nitpicking on what she had done in the past.

What else could she have to say about them?

“I am the culprit for Grandfather’s condition and all I can do is do my best, so why should you be grateful or apologize to me?”

Zi Yi’s voice contained slight confusion.

The Dou Family members were too polite.

When her four Uncles heard what she said, they were too, momentarily dazed.

Following that, they laughed out loud.

Dou Jingning lamented. “It seems like Little Zi has truly grown up and become sensible.”

Zi Yi felt a little uncomfortable at his words.

Dou Zhiyuan added. “Unless the elders are truly ignorant, no elder would truly hate the younger generation. What exists is only indignation.”

Dou Xiaoyong and Dou Jingtong nodded in agreement.

Subsequently, the five of them talked a lot.

As they conversed, the Dou Family members were even clearer of her change.

In the end, Dou Jingtong could not help but ask, “Little Zi, where did you learn all these skills of yours?”

In the past, Dou Jingning and the rest had also questioned her. But she merely played dumb and brushed it off.

In fact, they all knew deep down that based on Zi Yi’s previous personality of abandoning herself to a life of pleasure, it was impossible for her to learn these things at first glance.

If that was the case, they would not have painstakingly educated her in the past, as she disliked studying.

Zi Yi lowered her eyes and said, “Believe it or not, it is true that I have a retentive memory.”

Her four Uncles looked at each other. Since Zi Yi had said that herself, they did not continue to question her.

Dou Jingning stated. “You can come to us for anything anytime in the future.”

Dou Jingtong added, “When your Grandfather gets better, you should come and visit him too.”

Zi Yi nodded. Since the Dou Family had passed her an olive branch, she did not intend to push away their kindness.

When Zi Yi came out from the hospital, it was already two hours later.

Dou Xiangling and Dou Yue’er had walked her down.

Dou Yue’er was the youngest of the Dou Family’s third generation and she was younger than Zi Yi by one year. She was currently in her second year of high school and had taken a leave of absence due to Elder Dou’s condition these days.

She held Dou Xiangling’s hand and looked at Zi Yi from time to time, while revealing embarrassment.

Seeing that they were about to walk out from the inpatient area, Dou Yue’er finally awkwardly called out, “Cousin Yiyi…”

Zi Yi looked at her.

Dou Yue’er said, “I’m sorry for my attitude that night.”

Zi Yi recalled for a moment before she remembered what had happened. She then said, “It’s fine.”

Dou Yue’er was elated and started talking about Zi Yi’s bar. “Cousin Yiyi, I heard from Xiangling that your bar will be open for business soon. When is the official date?”

Before Zi Yi could reply, Dou Xiangling spoke up. “You’re still a child, why are you asking about this?”

“How am I a child! There’s only a one year age gap between me and Cousin Yiyi.” Dou Yue’er expectantly said to Zi Yi, “Please choose to open for business on a Saturday! I’ll be able to come and show my support then!”

Dou Xiangling flicked her forehead and scolded, “You wish! No matter when Yiyi’s bar opens for business, do you think you can visit a bar before you have even graduated? If you really went there, be careful that Fourth Uncle will get you to copy the Three Character Classics and Tao Te Ching a hundred times!”

“Ah…” Dou Yue’er revealed a bitter expression. “Sis, you’re so mean!”

Zi Yi could not help but release a small chuckle.

Even though she disagreed with the view that Dou Yue’er was unable to visit the bar, it was the Dou Family’s beliefs and she could not comment on it. “What Xiangling said is right. Come over to play when you graduate from high school. You can play however you want then.”

“Sigh, there’s still one year to go.”

“Hahaha…”

While they were in a merry conversation, two individuals, who were clearly bodyguards, had suddenly stopped in front of them.

“Miss Zi, my young master would like to meet with you.”

The smile on their faces disappeared at the same time.

Zi Yi looked at him with indifference and unhesitatingly rejected him. “I’m not interested in meeting him.”

Following that, she said to Dou Xiangling and Dou Yue’er, “You two can go back first. I’ll be going now.”

“Yiyi.”

“Don’t worry. I believe he is having ideas about my racing car’s flying technology. As for whether I meet him or not, he does not have the final say…”

The entrance of the hospital was a crowded place.

In a short time, many onlookers had stopped to watch them.

Dou Xiangling was still worried. “Yiyi, get in your car first. We’ll go back after we see you leave.”

Dou Yue’er nodded. “That’s right. If they dare to use force, we’ll immediately call for help.”

Zi Yi nodded. She then bypassed the two bodyguards and walked to her car.

The two bodyguards, who failed to invite her, felt the pressure as they were stared at by the two young ladies of the Dou Family and hastily left.

Zi Yi directly made her way to the club.

Knocking sounds could be heard not long after she had settled down.

Little Loli had instinctively gone to check who was knocking on the door.

Following that, she said to Zi Yi, “Master, there’s a man looking for you.”

Having said that, she also muttered a sentence, “He’s so average looking and also brought along a few bodyguards with him. It seems like he’s here to cause trouble.”

Zi Yi took out her tablet and checked the surveillance outside.

Two of them were the bodyguards who had stopped her outside the hospital earlier.

She looked at the person standing in front. It was a middle-aged man dressed in a high-end suit and wearing glasses. If not for his eyes, his appearance would make him seem educated and gentle.

A sly look flashed past her eyes and she said to Little Loli, “Tell him that our bar will be open for business this Saturday. I’m busy.”

“Alright~”

Over the next few days, there were several other groups of people who came looking for her.

Zi Yi got Little Loli to inform them of her opening on Saturday and that she was very busy.
