Seeing that Zhou Xuan had made up his mind, Li Lei stopped talking about it. Of course, this result was within his expectations, but his superiors had asked him to inquire about it.
Li Lei thought for a moment and then said, "Zhou Xuan, the girl named Wang Xin and her family that you were supposed to arrange are on a flight from Beihang University to Beijing. They should arrive in about an hour and a half. I have already arranged for people to escort the family of three. I have also sent people to secretly protect her younger brother who is studying at a university in Beijing. Just wait with peace of mind. You will see them in an hour and a half!"
Zhou Xuan shook his head and said, "No need. Uncle Li, when I arrive, please arrange for them to wait at the hotel. I'll be there soon. Now, I'd like to take my leave to attend to some personal matters."
Li Lei knew what Zhou Xuan needed to handle, and immediately smiled and said, "Zhou Xuan, don't worry. The personal car you mentioned is probably related to Zhou Tao and Zhou Ying. Go ahead and get busy. It's okay if you leave; I'll take care of things at home. I won't let them suffer any losses!"
Even if Zhou Xuan isn't currently under the scrutiny of the National Security Bureau or the highest levels of government, Li Lei wouldn't allow Zhou Tao and Zhou Ying to be framed or persecuted by others. Moreover, Zhou Xuan is now a secret weapon that countries around the world want to win over, but Zhou Xuan has almost no weaknesses. His ability is to remain unknown and undetectable to anyone, unless his family members are kidnapped and threatened. But that might only provoke Zhou Xuan's even greater anger. Under normal circumstances, no individual or organization would take this step unless they are heartbroken and insane.
Taking that step would create an indelible conflict with Zhou Xuan, and they would never be able to be on good terms with him again. This was something neither of them wanted to see or experience.
With such formidable power, Zhou Xuan has cast aside his previous weaknesses and his resentment has grown considerably lately!

Chapter 676
Two hours later, Li Lei's men picked up Wang Xin and her parents from the airport and took them to a hotel.
Zhou Xuan then said goodbye to Li Lei and left. When he arrived at the hotel address Li Lei had given him, he knocked on the door of Wang Xin's room. Wang Xin opened the door and, upon seeing Zhou Xuan, greeted him with a big smile and quickly welcomed him inside.
However, when Wang Dacheng and Liu Hua saw Zhou Xuan, they were both taken aback. Wang Dacheng immediately asked, "Zhou...Zhou, weren't you arrested by them? How did you end up in the capital? It doesn't seem too late!"
Zhou Xuan laughed and said, "I flew here, hehehe!"
Wang Dacheng and his wife couldn't help but laugh. Zhou Xuan liked to tell jokes, but seeing that Zhou Xuan was unharmed and had not been tormented by Mayor Liu and others, they were relieved.
"Zhou, it's good that you're alright. We were worried about you. We never expected that you would leave us before us!"
Liu Hua remarked, "This plane is really fast!"
Wang Dacheng didn't say anything more. It was the first time for both of them to fly, and they were still immersed in the joy. Seeing that Zhou Xuan and they themselves hadn't been caught by Mayor Liu, they figured that even if Mayor Liu was powerful, he probably wouldn't be able to reach them here once they got to Beijing.
Seeing that his daughter and Zhou Xuan looked relaxed, the couple were naturally relieved. Not long after, Li Lei's men even brought Wang Xin's younger brother, Wang Wei, from Beijing University to reunite with his family.
Wang Wei is twenty years old and has only been at Beijing University for a year. After being taken away from the school by Li Lei's men, he didn't hear them say anything or explain anything, and he was feeling very uneasy.
Wang Wei was an honest country boy who, after being admitted to a university in Beijing, studied even harder, hoping to graduate as soon as possible and earn money to support his parents and sister.
After being escorted to the hotel by Li Lei's men, Zhou Xuan gently knocked on the door of Wang Xin's family's room. Inside, Zhou Xuan already knew it was Wang Xin's younger brother and smiled, saying, "Wang Xin, go open the door and see what surprises await!"
Wang Xin and her parents didn't know what Zhou Xuan meant by those words, but Wang Xin was absolutely certain of what Zhou Xuan said and had no doubt about it. Since Zhou Xuan said that, he must have meant something, so she immediately got up and went to open the door.
As soon as the door was opened, the person who immediately came into view was tall and thin, somewhat familiar, yet also felt a sense of closeness. After a moment of hesitation, she asked tentatively, "Is this... Weiwei?"
Wang Wei recognized his sister, and immediately rushed into the room, hugged Wang Xin tightly, and called out with red eyes, "Sister!"
The siblings embraced and wept bitterly. They had been separated for more than four years. Four years ago, Wang Wei was still a teenager of fifteen or sixteen, while Wang Xin was twenty-two and his appearance had already taken shape. So when they met again, Wang Wei recognized Wang Xin, but Wang Xin was somewhat hesitant to acknowledge her younger brother.
After the siblings cried their hearts out, Wang Xin remembered that there was something else going on. She quickly wiped away her tears, pulled her brother into the room, and said, "Brother, look around the room and see who else is there?"
Wang Wei was still thinking about whether he should introduce his sister to someone like a brother-in-law, since his sister was already twenty-six or twenty-seven, and had reached the age to get married. In their rural area, if a girl was still unmarried at this age, she was considered an old maid who couldn't get married.
However, Wang Wei naturally did not believe that his sister would have difficulty getting married, because he knew that his sister was smart and hardworking, highly educated, gentle and kind, and also very beautiful. It would be a blessing for any man to marry her, so how could she possibly not be able to get married?
After following her sister into the room, she saw a young man at first glance. Just as she was about to hear her sister's introduction, she suddenly saw two elderly people sitting on the sofa. She paused for a moment, looked at them carefully, and then rushed over with a red face and shouted, "Dad, Mom!"
This joyous occasion was truly extraordinary. How could her parents, whom she had missed so much, have come to Beijing with her sister? And knowing that her sister would not be back in China for another six months, why did she return early?
Wang Wei was filled with anxiety, fearing that something might have happened to his sister, or that she had returned home after receiving a call from her parents, and that his parents were hiding something from him.
Wang Wei burst into tears of joy again, he really couldn't hold back, because he was so surprised and happy. He never dreamed that he would be able to see his sister again and his parents whom he had been longing to see. Just like his sister, he was worried about the travel expenses and couldn't bear to spend them, so he saved them and sent them back to his parents, which would also help pay off some of their debts.
"Silly son, why are you crying? It's not easy for the family to meet and sit together. If you want to laugh, why are you crying?" Wang Dacheng scolded his son while affectionately pulling him to sit down.
Wang Xin introduced him to her younger brother: "Little brother, this is... Brother Zhou Xuan, please call him Brother Zhou!"
Wang Wei politely stood up again and said to Zhou Xuan, "Brother Zhou, hello, my name is Wang Wei!"
"Don't be so polite!" Zhou Xuan shook hands with him and said, "Sit down, sit down, don't be so formal!"
After Wang Wei sat down, he asked Wang Xin, "Sister, weren't you supposed to be back for another six months? Why did you come back early? I really didn't expect that..." He then turned to his parents and said, "Dad, Mom, why are you both in Beijing?"
Although he had only been in Beijing for a little over a year, he was still aware of the current situation there. His sister had been sending money back to pay off debts and support his studies. Wang Wei also worked hard to earn scholarships and took on several tutoring jobs. By living frugally, he was still able to send some money home. Although it wasn't much, it was still a remarkable achievement for Wang Wei.
So, judging from these circumstances, the fact that my parents came to the capital for a visit must mean something important happened. Otherwise, they would never have come to a big city like the capital, as they are honest country folk. Since they came, could it be that my sister is really getting married?
Could it be this silent, sly young man in front of me?
Wang Wei couldn't help but steal glances at Zhou Xuan again. Zhou Xuan, of course, read his thoughts. But at this moment, not only him, but even Wang Xin guessed her brother's idea and couldn't help but scold, "Little brother, he's my boss. What do you think he is?"
Wang Wei was taken aback and asked in surprise, "Boss? What boss?"
Wang Xin continued, "Of course it's my boss, what other boss do you think I have?" She paused, then added, "I already have a job, at your Brother Zhou's company!"
"What company does Brother Zhou work for?" Upon hearing this, Wang Wei became wary again. His sister was beautiful and intelligent, but girls are soft-hearted and easily deceived. He didn't want to be fooled by this Zhou Xuan.
Wang Xin snorted and said, "Don't you know how cunning you are? Let me tell you, Brother Zhou is the boss of the Fu Group, the richest man in the world right now. His company is not a shell company!"
Wang Wei was stunned for a moment, then looked at Zhou Xuan more closely. His face turned red, and he stammered, "You...you...are you really that...Boss Zhou?"
Wang Wei is a student at Peking University. He is exposed to news and current events far more often than his parents in the countryside, and he is also more knowledgeable. He felt that Zhou Xuan looked very familiar, and after thinking about it carefully, he immediately remembered that this person was definitely the real Zhou Xuan!
Zhou Xuan is now one of the world's richest men, a rising star among the world's wealthy. How could anyone not know him? Once Wang Wei was reminded, he immediately remembered.
Zhou Xuan chuckled and said, "I told you before, don't be so formal, just call me Brother Zhou. Study hard, and if you ever want to work at Brother Zhou's company, just let me know. To make sure you have no worries, your sister works at my company, and we can bring your parents over too. My parents are also from the countryside in Danjiangkou, so they'll have common topics to talk about with you and won't feel uncomfortable!"
Wang Wei would certainly love to work for Zhou Xuan's big company in the future; it would be something he couldn't ask for. But since Zhou Xuan was one of the world's richest men, why would he be interested in ordinary people like his family? After thinking it over, he couldn't think of any other reason besides his beautiful older sister!
