After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me - Chapter 1048

Chapter 1048: Going Home
What Zhouzhou said left Brian Junior a bit confused, but when he heard her mention that she could let him see his mother, his eyes lit up. “Really?” he asked, his voice full of hope.

Zhouzhou nodded. “Of course, it’s true.”

“Good,” Brian Junior immediately made up his mind. “As long as you can let us meet, I’ll give you all the family fortune!”

Old Brian was so enraged by this that he spat out a mouthful of blood, but with Zhouzhou’s medicine still in his system, he was kept alive by the thinnest thread, unable to die.

Zhouzhou nodded again. “Wait here.”

With that, she calculated briefly. She hadn’t seen his mother’s soul in the basement earlier, but luckily, she hadn’t gone far. She was still within the Brian household. As for exactly where, that would depend on Brian Junior himself.

Zhouzhou took out a talisman, the Eye-Opening Talisman, and handed it to him, followed by another talisman, the Bloodline-Tracing Talisman. “Think about your mother, and follow the direction these talismans point you towards.”

Brian Junior had never seen or heard of such things before. He felt a little nervous, but his eyes shone with determination. Whether it worked or not, he had to try.

He really missed his mother so much.

With that thought in mind, he held the talismans tightly in his palms, thinking of his mother. Almost instantly, his feet moved uncontrollably towards a particular direction.

Old Brian continued to curse from behind, but no one paid him any attention.

Soon, Brian Junior arrived at the door of a room. He stopped and stared at it, confused.

This… was his room?

So, his mother had always been accompanying him here?

He pushed the door open and entered. Immediately, he saw a translucent figure inside. Her face was exactly like the one he’d seen in the basement.

When the spirit heard the sound, she turned and looked at him. Her gaze was as warm as it had always been in his memories.

Brian Junior’s eyes instantly filled with tears. “Mom!”

“Brian!” His mother looked at him in surprise. He could see her? From the moment she had passed away, she had stayed in his room, silently watching him grow up. Unfortunately, she never thought he would be able to see her again.

She hadn’t expected that they would be able to meet like this once more.

At that moment, Brian Junior truly believed Zhouzhou. She had led him to find his mother, and now she allowed him to see her. She hadn’t lied to him. She was a good person.

Filled with gratitude, Brian Junior rushed into his mother’s arms. “Mom, I missed you so much!”

His mother’s eyes also grew moist. “I missed you too.”

She spoke softly, “Brian, I’ve always been with you, watching you grow. I’m so happy. Even though I’m gone, I can accompany you in this way. I’m so glad that I won’t be locked away in a dark place by your grandfather, unable to see you.”

Hearing this, Brian Junior’s eyes filled with hatred.

He held her tightly and said, “Mom, I will avenge you.”

His mother froze for a moment when she heard this.

The mention of her father-in-law brought with it an instinctive fear. She was also worried about what would happen to Brian Junior.

She had been in this room for so long, yet she still didn’t understand what was happening. All she had heard were the sounds of gunshots outside, and she feared for Brian Junior’s safety. Fortunately, he seemed fine.

Brian Junior took her hand and led her outside.

This time, there were no obstacles as they walked out.

Before she could even be surprised, she saw the person lying on the ground.

The man she had always seen as dignified and imposing, her father-in-law, was now lying in a pool of blood, unable to even be recognized as the head of the Brian family.

She froze for a moment.

Brian Junior was already standing beside him, looking down at Old Brian with cold eyes.

“Grandfather, you better watch this,” he said.

He turned to the butler and said, “I’m giving you a few hours. Before dawn, I want all of the family assets counted.”

“Sell all the shares, sell the company, and liquidate everything.”

“Not a penny left. Understand?”

The butler immediately nodded, bending his back respectfully. “Understood. You can rest assured.”

This time, his respect was devoid of any falsehood.

He had always been a person who went with the wind, following whoever was in power.

“Foolish!” Old Brian cursed. “Without the Brian family, who do you think you are?”

At this, Brian Junior’s expression remained indifferent. He tightly held onto his mother. As long as she was with him, he felt an infinite strength.

“I never wanted this,” he said coldly. “It was you who insisted on giving it to me.”

If he had a choice, he would rather be an ordinary person, always by his mother’s side. But since he couldn’t achieve that in this life, he would have to hope for the next life.

With this thought, he looked at Zhouzhou and said seriously, “Thank you.”

Thank you for bringing me to find my mother. Thank you for letting me see her.

Zhouzhou smiled and winked at him, patting her chest proudly. “No need to thank me. We’re friends, after all!”

Although she hadn’t wanted to talk to him before, now they were suddenly friends. She was quite quick to change her stance.

Zhouzhou was entirely justified in her actions. She hadn’t wanted to help him before because of Brian’s wrongdoings. But now that Brian Junior was her enemy’s enemy, he was, by default, her friend. Besides, he was going to give her all his money—wasn’t that what friends did?

Such friends—she wouldn’t mind having a few more of them.

The butler worked quickly. Within two hours, everything was in order.

The Brian family had once had countless people coveting its assets, but now, as everything was being liquidated, many rushed to grab what they could.

Although the price was slightly reduced, Brian Junior didn’t mind.

All he wanted was his mother.

Soon, the last of the Brian family’s assets was sold. Brian Junior placed all the bank cards in front of Zhouzhou.

“I leave my mother’s matter to you,” he said.

After a brief pause, he added, “Half of this is your reward.”

Zhouzhou’s eyes lit up.

She was getting rich! She was going to be rich!

Ancestral Master appeared beside her, so overjoyed that he almost jumped up.

Zhouzhou immediately said, “Don’t worry!”

This was going to be done well!

Although they were foreigners, everyone was human, and the process wasn’t that different.

Zhouzhou asked Ancestral Master to convert all the money into merit. Soon, a brilliant golden light enveloped Brian Junior’s mother.

Her face looked more sacred in the golden glow.

Brian Junior gazed at her, and tears welled up in his eyes.

“Mom…”

His mother felt her body growing lighter, realizing she was about to leave. She looked at Brian Junior and smiled gently. “Brian, my boy, take care of yourself. As long as you keep me in your heart, I will always be with you.”

“Yes!” Brian Junior nodded firmly, watching her figure fade away.

With the work done, Zhouzhou felt no burden in collecting the money.

After bidding farewell to Brian Junior, they left.

Before they left, Ye Lingfeng walked over to Old Brian and whispered in his ear, “Want to know who I am?”

“You’ve been looking for the Fourth Bureau, right? Well, I am it.”

“Don’t worry. With your money, we’ll be doing just fine.”

Upon hearing this, Old Brian’s face twisted, and he spat another mouthful of blood, his pupils dilating.

The one person he had spent his whole life trying to destroy had finally used his life’s work to feed them.

He died without peace.

Ye Lingfeng glanced at him coldly and then turned away, pushing Qiu Guoliang carefully onto the plane.

When they finally arrived in Hua Country, the first rays of light pierced through the sky.

Ye Lingfeng looked at it and couldn’t help but chuckle softly. He gently held Qiu Guoliang’s hand and said, “It’s dawn. We’re going home.”
