Chapter 8: Undercurrents

After returning from school, Zhong Zhiyan returned to the Zhong family's mansion. Zhong Jian was sitting on a chair in the garden basking in the sun, Zhong Zhiyan walked up to him and called, "Grandpa." ”

Zhong Jian raised his head and saw Zhong Zhiyan and smiled, "I'm back, sit down." ”

Zhong Zhiyan sat down on the chair next to him in the middle, and the maid prepared tea for them.

"I went to the school today to see Teacher Song. Zhong Zhiyan spoke first.

"Well, what does she think now?" Zhong Jian got straight to the point.

"I don't think she wants to leave Zhiqi. Zhong Zhiyan said what he guessed Song Shiyun's thoughts. He told Song Shiyun today that Zhong Jian hoped that she and Zhong Zhiqi would be completely separated, and he could also help her financially. Although Song Shiyun was expressionless, she didn't speak for a long time. She stubbornly didn't want to give up the relationship with Zhong Zhiqi, but in fact there was nothing she could do.

"Then what is she going to do with the affairs of the family? What will she pay off the money her father lost and the debt that her brother owes?" Zhong Jian said.

Zhong Zhiyan shook his head, "She didn't say anything about money." ”

Zhong Jian sighed, "Young people are simple in their thinking. In fact, your aunt and I used to like poetry and rhyme, but the people of the Song family were too angry. Her father won't talk about it, her brother ......."

Song Sixian is no longer an ordinary gamble, he has completely fallen into this abyss. In order to get gambling money, he can risk his life, he can't let Song Shiyun go, he will definitely use his brains on her. Such a dangerous person, how could the Zhong family let Zhong Zhiqi get involved with him.

"It's a pity. Zhong Jian shook his head slightly.

After finishing Song Shiyun, Zhong Jian looked at Zhong Zhiyan and said, "Stay for dinner in the evening, and your aunt and Zhiqi will also come over." ”

"Oh. Zhong Zhiyan responded obediently.

In the evening, Zhong Qiaoyun and Zhong Zhiqi arrived, dinner was just ready, and the family sat at the round table to eat.

Zhong Qiaoyun first asked Zhong Jian's body, and then looked at Zhong Zhiyan, "Zhiyan, when are you going to go to the company?"

Zhong Zhiyan was stunned when asked, Zhong Qiaoyun smiled, "Or do you want to rest again?"

"I ......" Zhong Zhiyan turned to Zhong Jian in confusion, as if begging for help.

Zhong Qiaoyun saw this scene, "Then play for a while, after all, you just came back." Zhiqi is busy with the company's affairs, and I asked Tang Qin to familiarize you with the environment here. ”

Hearing this, Zhong Zhiqi looked at Zhong Qiaoyun in surprise.

Zhong Zhiyan smiled, "Tang Qin is very busy, so don't bother her." ”

"How do you know that Tang Qin is busy?" Zhong Qiaoyun immediately asked.

Zhong Zhiyan paused, and pretended to answer lightly: "She must be busy filming, I have watched a lot of dramas she has filmed before." There is definitely no time to rest after filming so intensively. ”

Zhong Zhiqi glanced at Zhong Zhiyan, "You care about her." ”

Zhong Zhiyan smiled, "Yes, I'm just a little fan." ”

Zhong Qiaoyun was amused by this, "That's right, I'll let Tang Qin squeeze out some time to take you around." ”

Zhong Zhiyan just wanted to say that this is not good, but Zhong Jian spoke at this time, "Zhiyan's matter can be put first, how are you doing?"

Zhong Zhiqi didn't dare to look up, "It's the same old way." ”

Zhong Jian glanced at her, "I heard that you haven't been to the company recently, what's wrong?"

"I ......" Zhong Zhiqi didn't know what excuse to make. He dared to talk to Zhong Qiaoyun directly, but he didn't have the courage to say it to Zhong Jian.

Zhong Qiaoyun was already angry, so he took this opportunity to say, "Be angry with me." ”

Zhong Zhiqi completely lost his appetite, he put down his chopsticks and still lowered his head.

"I don't allow him to pay back Song Sixian. Zhong Qiaoyun simply said it, and glared at Zhong Zhiqi.

Zhong Jian sighed, "You can't delay the company's affairs because of personal matters." ”

As soon as Zhong Jian spoke, the people at the table didn't dare to make a sound.

"Zhiqi, Song Sixian is now a bottomless pit. I agree with your mom, you'd better not meddle. You and Shiyun are friends, I'll find someone to talk to, and our family will help a little, but that's the end of it. Zhong Jian said.

Zhong Zhiqi, who endured it for a while, suddenly said: "This has nothing to do with Shiyun, don't embarrass her." ”

Seeing Zhong Zhiqi's attitude, Zhong Qiaoyun was angry, "You and Song Shiyun don't even think about it." ”

Zhong Zhiqi didn't speak, but he looked unconvinced. The atmosphere at the dinner table instantly dropped to freezing point.

"Actually, Tang Qin is quite good. Zhong Zhiyan suddenly said.

Zhong Qiaoyun and Zhong Zhiqi both looked at him and were stunned, Zhong Zhiyan didn't know what he said wrong.

"You're really a fan of Tang Qin. Zhong Zhiqi said mockingly.

Zhong Zhiyan smiled embarrassedly, and Zhong Qiaoyun sighed at this time, "It's really Tang Qin who is better than Song Shiyun." ”

"What's wrong with poetry?" Zhong Zhiqi blurted out.

Seeing that Zhong Zhiqi still couldn't understand it, Zhong Qiaoyun said angrily: "I don't know what to do." ”

"Okay, okay, it's rare to have a meal, alas......" Seeing that Zhong Qiaoyun and Zhong Zhiqi were about to quarrel, Zhong Jian interrupted them, "Let's go back and think about it, don't make me angry in front of me." ”

Zhong Jian stood up and wanted to go upstairs, Zhong Zhiyan wanted to help him, he patted Zhong Zhiyan and said, "Someone helped me up, you sit and eat." ”

After Zhong Jian left, no one at the table moved their chopsticks, Zhong Qiaoyun and Zhong Zhiqi were silent, and Zhong Zhiyan was very embarrassed.

After being silent for a while, Zhong Qiaoyun looked at Zhong Zhiyan: "Zhiyan, let you see the joke." ”

"No, auntie. Zhong Zhiyan replied nervously.

Zhong Qiaoyun wanted to speak and stopped, but finally sighed. She didn't talk about Zhong Zhiqi, and changed the topic of hunger, "You go to the company to think about it yourself, and tell me after thinking about it." ”

"I ...... I ......," Zhong Zhiyan muttered, "I'm not suitable for going to the company." ”

After looking at Zhong Zhiyan's expression, Zhong Qiaoyun didn't feel like he was deliberately shirking, but he didn't know what he was thinking in his heart.

Zhong Qiaoyun smiled, "This is what grandpa meant, since you are back, it is impossible for you to have nothing." ”

Hearing this, Zhong Zhiyan was even more nervous, and he was at a loss.

Zhong Qiaoyun then said: "Don't worry about this, you think slowly." ”

Zhong Qiaoyun asked Zhong Zhiqi to send Zhong Zhiyan back, Zhong Zhiqi was reluctant but didn't want to conflict with Zhong Qiaoyun or let Zhong Zhiyan get into the car.

Along the way, Zhong Zhiqi had a serious expression and didn't say a word, and Zhong Zhiyan knew that he was in a bad mood.

"Qi, the elders think differently from me, you have to explain slowly. Also, you have to listen to your aunt's thoughts, and listen to them to make it clear. Teacher Song's situation is complicated, and he can't solve it in a hurry. ”

Zhong Zhiyan enlightened him with the appearance of an elder brother, and Zhong Zhiqi didn't disdain it at all. Zhong Jian and Zhong Qiaoyun disagreed, completely because they were afraid that their interests would be damaged, but from an economic point of view, they didn't consider his love and happiness at all.

"Teacher Song is good, but in fact...... Tang Qin is really good. Zhong Zhiyan said suddenly.

Zhong Zhiqi remained silent.

The car arrived at the community where Zhong Zhiyan lived, and Zhong Zhiyan unbuckled his seat belt and prepared to get out of the car.

"Thank you for sending me back......"

Zhong Zhiyan was saying goodbye, and he looked up to see Zhong Zhiqi staring at him.

Zhong Zhiqi's face was expressionless, but his eyes were very sharp, "Stay away from Tang Qin and Song Shiyun." ”

Thinking that he had talked to Song Shiyun today and met Tang Qin again, Zhong Zhiyan didn't dare to respond to Zhong Zhiqi's warning, he got out of the car with a weak smile.
