At this time, Zou Hong was sitting anxiously in the living room of Zou Shigang's house. Her stepmother Fang Xiaojing was sitting on the sofa opposite. The latter was drinking coffee calmly and glanced at Zou Hong who was restless with a smile from time to time.
Fang Xiaojing, who has taken good care of herself, does not look like a woman in her fifties at all. Except for some wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, her skin is as bright and moist as a young person in her twenties and thirties. She looks gentle and dignified, and every move shows it.
Excellent cultivation. It is not without reason that she has been able to firmly capture Zou Shigang's heart over the years.
"Did my dad say when he would be back?" Zou Hong finally couldn't hold back and asked eagerly.
Fang Xiaojing smiled slightly and said: "No, he left in a hurry this time and didn't even mention where he was going. I saw that he looked anxious, maybe there was something wrong with the Qinxinyuan project."
Zou Hong couldn't sit still, so he stood up and paced back and forth anxiously.
Fang Xiaojing put the coffee cup on the coffee table and asked deliberately: "Xiaohong, you won't get into any trouble again, will you?"
Zou Hong knew that she would not have any good intentions, and she would definitely gloat if she knew that someone had dirty water thrown on her. Furthermore, if she knew that she failed to control her bodyguards and allowed them to attack members of the Security Bureau, I am afraid that she would
This Fang Xiaojing would tell Zou Shigang about the matter in a more aggravating manner, causing her to completely lose her father's trust.
Fang Xiaojing looked at her livid face and quickly changed her words with a smile: "Look at what I said, we Xiaohong are already in our forties, and we won't be as careless as when we were young. Aunt Fang said that she is older.
It’s nonsense, don’t take it to heart.”
Zou Hong took out her mobile phone and called her father Zou Shigang again, but there was still no answer. She looked at Fang Xiaojing who looked calm and felt unhappy. Although she wanted to stay here and wait for her father to come back, she didn't want to be with this woman for a moment.
Under the same roof. After thinking about it, she decided to go back to her home to hide for a while.
"Are you leaving now? Don't you want to sit down for a while? I'm also going to ask Mother Liu to cook some of your favorite dishes!"
Zou Hong bent down at the door to tie her shoelaces and said coldly: "Can you know what I like to eat?"
Fang Xiaojing still smiled good-naturedly and said: "I don't know, it doesn't matter, you can tell Mama Liu. Xiaohong, you come and leave in such a hurry, what do you want to do with your dad?"
"It's nothing. I haven't seen his old man for a long time. I wanted to come and have a look. If my dad comes back, remember to tell him that I have been here and ask him to call me back." Zou Hong put on his coat and opened the door to leave.
Fang Xiaojing suppressed her smile after she slammed the door, and snorted: "You, if you want to see your dad, you have to see if I am willing or not!"
She raised her voice and said to Ma Liu who was busy in the kitchen: "Mama Liu, remember to make the sweet and sour mandarin fish that Lao Zou loves to eat!"
When Fang Xiaojing walked into the master bedroom on the second floor carrying the freshly prepared fruit, Zou Shi had just woken up and was reaching out to touch the reading glasses on the bedside table in a daze.
Fang Xiaojing helped him put on his glasses, peeled a piece of orange and handed it to him, and asked softly: "Does your head still hurt?"
"Much better. I don't know what's wrong with me lately. I'm always lethargic. It's useless to sleep for thirteen or four hours a day. When I wake up, I'm still yawning. After all, I'm old. I can't compete with anyone.
I can't beat time!" Zou Shigang rubbed his head tiredly. He was indeed getting older, and his physical strength was getting worse day by day, but he didn't know that the main reason that made him so tired was the cup of tea that Fang Xiaojing handed him every day.
, that cup of tea with some sleeping pills. As long as it can ensure that Zou Shigang has no energy to go out in the past few days, and isolate him from Zou Hong, Fang Xiaojing can carry out her plan without hindrance.
"How old are you? You look like you are in your fifties at most. People always said that we are an old husband and a young wife, but now we look like our peers." Fang Xiaojing laughed like a warbler.
Zou Shigang didn't delve into whether this was true or not. He was indeed coaxed by the sweet words and his brows were filled with joy. He patted her hand and said, "You are such a flatterer!"
"I speak from the bottom of my heart, there is no adulteration at all!" Fang Xiaojing considerately massaged Zou Shigang's sore neck and shoulders.
"Hey, by the way, I thought I heard someone talking to you when I was dazed just now. Someone is here? Is it Xiaohong?"
Fang Xiaojing said without any guilt: "Oh, no, I was chatting with Mama Liu just now. Xiaohong is the principal now, and she is so busy with school affairs, how can she have time to go here?"
"Oh, it seems that I was confused by my sleep. I haven't seen her in a few days. This little white-eyed wolf doesn't know how to come back to see her father. I am already old, and I don't know when to close my eyes.
Now, how many times can I get together with these children?" Zou Shigang sighed with some disappointment.
Fang Xiaojing quickly said: "Bah, bah, bah! You are saying such depressing things! You want to live to be at least a hundred years old. You don't need to worry about Zou Hong and Zou Kai. How old is our Mingming! You two legs
It's a great ride, but how can we live as orphans and widows?"
"Well, if Chang Jia were still here, I wouldn't have to worry about you. Among my children, he is the most promising. Who knows... Oh!" Zou Shigang thought of his son who died young, and the man with white hair gave black hair to him.
People's grief lingered in my heart again and couldn't go away. Fang Xiaojing's eyes were red and she choked and said: "Damn old man, it's hard for me to miss our Chang Jia, but you insist on bringing it up and poking my heart!"
Zou Shigang looked at his tearful wife and quickly comforted him: "It's my fault, it's my fault, I shouldn't mention these sad things. Fortunately, Mingming is also a sensible child. I look forward to living a few more years and watching
He got married and started a business."
Fang Xiaojing wiped her tears and said, "Yes, our little son is also very impressive. He has always been the first in the class! He will not be inferior to his elder brother."
Seeing that her mood had calmed down slightly, Zou Shigang said an idea that he had been thinking about for a long time: "Now that Chang Jia is gone, Chang Ming is only twelve years old. No matter how outstanding he is, he is only a half-grown child. My health is getting worse day by day.
I can’t do it without someone I can trust to help me manage Shihua Group. Zou Kai was very business-minded when he was young, and he is steady and capable. We can rest assured that we can leave this company to him for the time being. In the future, when Chang Ming grows up,
, Zou Kai can also give him some guidance. Xiaojing, what do you think?"
Fang Xiaojing felt sad in her heart. She knew that Zou Shigang was telling the truth and asking her for her opinion at this time was just to give her face. Even if she was opposed to Zou Kai returning to the company, so what. Her one or two words had no way of influencing Zou Shigang's opinion.
She then put on a virtuous look and said, "Of course I agree with Zou Kai's return. After he comes back, he can also help you, so that you won't have to work so hard every day."
Zou Shigang showed his face and said: "I knew you were the most reasonable. I know that you and Xiaokai didn't get along very well, but that was all many years ago. After all, we are a family, and there is nothing we can't resolve.
Knot."
"You don't have to worry about this. I don't care about all the stumbling blocks in the past. Whether he admits it or not, I am half his mother. How could I argue with a junior and cause you trouble!" Zou Shigang met Fang Xiao.
Jing was sincere and generous, which made him feel a lot relieved. He couldn't help but sigh again that he was really lucky to have such a virtuous wife who always thought about him in this life.
