After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me

Chapter 1041 Selling the Invitation

As the evening party began, Qin Er, true to his word, took the invitation and went to the front of the Brian family's residence. In less than ten minutes, he sold the invitation for a staggering price of 2.5 million euros. He generously handed Zhouzhou ten euros, saying, "If it weren't for you, Brian Junior wouldn't have invited me."

Zhouzhou didn't hesitate and accepted the money, asking, "Brother Dafu, are you heading back to the hotel now?"

"No, I'm setting up a stall here," Qin Er replied confidently. "People here are all foolish and wealthy. Things will sell quickly and for a high price."

Zhouzhou's eyes sparkled with admiration. "Brother Dafu is so amazing!" she thought.

Meanwhile, Brian Junior stood by, helplessly watching Qin Er sell the invitation and then set up his impromptu stall outside his house. He was speechless. "Has he gone mad from poverty?" he wondered.

However, surprisingly, there were actually people who found Qin Er's goods appealing and bought them, often paying ten times the price they would have at the hotel across the street. The sight of this made Zhouzhou's eyes practically glimmer with excitement.

Brian Junior, on the other hand, couldn't help but roll his eyes, urging, "Alright, alright, let's go inside." He was getting worried that Zhouzhou might even sell her invitation next! He fully believed that she was capable of doing such a thing.

Ye Lingfeng had disguised himself as Zhouzhou's teacher and followed her into the event. When Brian Junior glanced at him, he quickly averted his gaze, his interest still clearly on Zhouzhou.

He approached her and asked, "When did you start to involve with Olympiad mathematics?"

Some people have an innate sensitivity to mathematics, like him. He started learning at the age of two, and by five, his teacher began teaching him math Olympiad problems. If she was like that, then she must have been learning for years, and her current achievements would make sense.

Zhouzhou tilted her head slightly, replying, "Two months ago."

She had started by learning math from her teacher, then began formal Olympiad training with her elder brother two months ago in preparation for the competition.

Brian Junior stopped dead in his tracks, stunned. "What did you say?!"

Zhouzhou, seemingly distracted, repeated, "Two months ago."

She then turned her gaze toward the central buffet area, feeling her mouth water, and asked, "Can I have some food?"

Still reeling from the shock of her revelation, Brian Junior, stunned, replied, "Sure."

Zhouzhou, still chewing her cake, tilted her head and curiously asked, "So, you didn't win the championship because you ate too many sweets?"

Brian Junior nearly choked. "You..." He was certain she was making fun of him.

Zhouzhou, however, was simply asking an innocent question based on what he said.

Seeing her clear, innocent eyes, Brian Junior was left feeling uncomfortable. He found her directness even more awkward than any sarcasm.

Just then, Brian Senior entered the room and saw his grandson in such an uncomfortable position. He squinted his eyes, turned to Zhouzhou, and asked, "Whose child is this?"

The butler glanced at him and replied, "She's from China. She competed with the young master and won the championship."

Brian Senior nodded, his expression neutral. He didn't particularly care for such competitions but had allowed his grandson to participate because he liked it. He had not expected to take any particular interest in this girl, but now that he was paying attention, he found himself intrigued.

As Brian Junior picked up a piece of cake, Brian Senior's gaze briefly paused. He turned to the butler and said softly, "Find a chance to..." He didn't finish the sentence, but the butler immediately understood the implication.

The young master would eventually inherit the Brian family legacy. He should not be influenced by his emotions or attachments. Just as the young master had been unable to control his feelings for his mother, which led to her disappearance, so too should they now ensure nothing interfered with his future.

Brian Senior's thoughts were interrupted when Zhouzhou, still eating cake, suddenly felt a wave of hostility. It wasn't from Kurosaki.

She clutched her cake, pretending to casually scan the room, and her gaze settled on two people standing nearby. One was in a suit, his hair meticulously styled. He appeared amiable, but the malice in his eyes gave him away.

Zhouzhou immediately became cautious.

Brian Junior, noticing where she was looking, followed her gaze and said, "This is my grandfather. Come, I'll take you to meet him."

He pulled her towards Brian Senior. "Grandfather," he said, "this is the one who stole my championship."

Brian Senior looked at her, smiling, but Zhouzhou could see the underlying malice in his eyes.

Such hypocrisy, she thought, as she returned his smile and greeted him sweetly, "Hello, Grandpa."

Brian gave a slight nod. "Hello."
