027, strange
The subtle atmosphere inevitably continued after dinner.
Hu Xiaoting had already pulled Zhong Jie upstairs to whisper.
Zhong Ruzhen uncharacteristically did not leave the Zhong Mansion immediately, under the pretext that he had eaten too much and wanted to wait for digestion, he was accompanied by Luo Shiyan to watch TV in the living room, and a pair of eyes glanced at the study from time to time - Zhong Yuanshan and Han Lie were inside.
Tong Qiangqiang's mind condensed slightly. I don't know if it's just that she is too sensitive, she always feels that Zhong Ruzhen's attitude towards Han Lie is different from that towards the rest of the Zhong family.
Because of the fact that his biological mother was angry to death back then, Zhong Ruzhen not only complained about Zhong Jie and Hu Xiaoting, but was actually alienated from the entire Zhong family. It wasn't until Zhong Yuanshan's health became worse and worse in the past two years that she came more often than before to fulfill her filial piety as a granddaughter.
And every time she goes back to Zhong's house, leaving Zhong Yuanshan and Zhu Jinhua behind, she basically won't take the initiative to deal with other people (excluding the bombardment of Hu Xiaoting). Han Lie was the first. In addition, Fang was at the dinner table, listening to Zhong Ruzhen's tone, and seemed to know Han Lie's affairs very well.
"Little sister-in-law!
The tender cry pulled back Tong Qiangqiang's thoughts, Zhong Runing shook Tong Qiangqiang's arm, sweet and coquettish, "Play a hand-to-hand game with Ning Ning~"
She had a lollipop in her mouth, her cheeks bulging, and her little face rounded. Tong Qiangqiang couldn't help but poke her round face lightly, and stretched out his hand with a smile.
Zhong Runing immediately went to hit Tong Qiangqiang's palm. Tong Qiangqiang reacted quickly and retracted his hand. Zhong Runing couldn't hit it, and his mouth was pouted. Tong Qiangqiang stretched out his hand again and asked Zhong Runing to hit her palm again. Coming and going, repeatedly, having a lot of fun.
Zhong Wenhao stood by the arch with one shoulder against the wall, staring at Tong Qiangqiang, who was patiently playing with Zhong Runing, from a distance, and watched silently for a while.
Until Zhu Jinhua walked to his side.
"If your grandfather talks to you for a while, remember to slow down, don't show hostility towards your uncle. The old man has lived to this age, and what he wants to see most is a harmonious family, but fortunately you settled down just now, unlike your second uncle who lost his temper directly in front of your grandfather. ”
"Actually, it doesn't matter how your grandfather wants to transfer your uncle. Since he has the ability, it is a good thing to come to the company. We should have a good relationship with your uncle, and he can help you more. Don't worry, my mother has tested the old man's mind, and now he is all out of guilt for this little son and wants to make up for it. Only you are the heir he has cultivated. You are his grandson, and you will soon be able to add him great-grandson, so that he will have the opportunity to live together for four generations before he is 100 years old. ”
After chattering for a long time and not seeing Zhong Wenhao's reaction, Zhu Jinhua pulled him, twisted his eyebrows and asked, "What's wrong with you today?"
Zhong Wenhao turned his head when he heard this, "Mom, which hospital made my physical examination report?"
Zhu Jinhua was stunned. Last time, because he and Tong Qiangqiang had a quarrel about artificial insemination, she only realized when she asked that Zhong Wenhao accidentally found the physical examination report she put in the room, so he knew that he had fertility problems.
The topic related to fertility is Zhong Wenhao's heart disease, why did he suddenly bring it up again today?
After a little thought, Zhu Jinhua thought that Zhong Wenhao was worried about secrecy, so he said: "Dean Wang, don't you know each other too? You can rest assured. ”
"Old Friends...... It's very reliable......" Zhong Wenhao repeated the words, his eyes were a little weird.
Zhu Jinhua didn't know why: "What's wrong? What's wrong?"
Zhong Wenhao crossed his hands on his hips, turned around and walked out of the porch, turned back after a few steps, stood in front of Zhu Jinhua, raised his arms, wanted to speak and stopped, and then threw off his arms fiercely from mid-air, exuding irritability and anger: "Mom, I'm normal!"
After yelling, he reacted that he was a little uncontrollable, Zhong Wenhao glanced at it and made sure that the people inside did not notice the movement, so he lowered his voice and said again: "My fertility is not a problem at all!"
Zhu Jinhua was stunned as early as Zhong Wenhao's first sentence, and hurriedly pulled Zhong Wenhao to the porch in the back garden, holding Zhong Wenhao's shoulders with both hands: "What do you mean? Explain it clearly to your mother." ”
Zhong Wenhao's face was gloomy: "I went to another hospital for a re-examination today, and the diagnosis showed that there was nothing wrong with my body at all. That previous report was wrong!"
"Wrong...... how could it be wrong......" Zhu Jinhua digested the news in shock, grabbed Zhong Wenhao's arm, suppressed joy and asked: "Son, so you can have children without artificial conception?"
"Mom, that's not what we should be concerned about now. Zhong Wenhao gritted his teeth and reminded angrily: "You will go to the hospital tomorrow to find the doctor who gave me a physical examination to ask for clarification." If it's just a simple misdiagnosis, forget it, I'm afraid of ......"
Zhu Jinhua suddenly gathered a look of joy: "You mean...... Could it be that someone is secretly doing this?"
Zhong Wenhao nodded: "I hope I'm too worried." But when I think about it, I always feel that things are a little strange. ”
Zhu Jinhua and Zhong Wenhao tilted their heads together, looking into the hall through the floor-to-ceiling window, their expressions solemn.

In the study, Zhong Yuanshan and Han Lie's conversation was at a stalemate.
"You say it again?"
Hearing this, Han Lie raised his eyelids slightly, his gaze crossed Zhong Yuanshan's angry face, and then lowered his eyes again, saying, "I don't want to stay in the Zhong clan any longer. ”
Before the end of his words had completely fallen, Zhong Yuanshan's hand slapped heavily on the armrest of the wheelchair: "What do you kid want?!"
"Dad, don't force me. Compared with Zhong Yuanshan, Han Lie always had a steady tone, a low voice, and no ups and downs.
Similar words, a familiar tone, are very similar to the woman many years ago. Zhong Yuanshan was in a trance for a moment, and after a while, he asked calmly: "Third brother, to be honest, you have always been reluctant to enter the Zhong family, but because you have a grudge against me from the bottom of your heart?"
Han Lie clenched his teacup and replied, "Yes." ”
"Sure enough......" Zhong Yuanshan was depressed, and smiled bitterly: "You are sincere, and you are not afraid of hurting my heart." ”
The corners of Han Lie's lips pursed slightly, but he smiled silently.
The stalemate a few seconds ago eased because of this, and Zhong Yuanshan sighed: "That's it, if you force you again, maybe your mother will only be more cold to me in heaven." ”
"But," Zhong Yuanshan changed his words, "at least after the completion of the development of Pilong Island, right?"
Han Lie smiled lightly: "Dad, since Mr. Smith has agreed to cooperate with the Zhong family, he will not easily regret it, it doesn't matter if I participate in it or not." So this case can now be completely transferred to Wen Hao. ”
Zhong Yuanshan expressed his concerns: "But after all, you and Mr. Smith have a relationship, and you rashly let Wen Hao take over directly, without a transition period, which is always uneasy." ”
Han Lie didn't react immediately, rubbing his fingertips back and forth on the wall of the cup, waiting for Zhong Yuanshan's later words.
After a few seconds, Zhong Yuanshan suggested as if after careful consideration: "Otherwise, you will leave after the development project is officially launched." Wen Hao is always too young, although he has been exercising for several years, many things have never been able to be the most beautiful. You are richer than him in terms of experience and experience, so I will mention him more during this time. How?"
A hint of ridicule flashed in Han Lie's eyes, and when he looked at Zhong Yuanshan, he had already changed to a compromise: "Okay." ”
Zhong Yuanshan was very happy: "Then there is no need to cancel your transfer." You are working outside on behalf of our Zhong family, and the name is still needed. ”
"Second brother and Wen Hao......" Han Lie paused, "I'm afraid there is a misunderstanding with me." ”
"Don't worry about your second brother, I know his thoughts very well. Zhong Yuanshan sneered and continued: "As for Wen Hao, I will talk to him." ”
"Good. Han Lie put down the teacup and asked, "Dad, if there is nothing else, I'll go first." ”
"Well, go ahead. Zhong Yuanshan nodded, and finally cared about him: "The IT company you opened with your friend has any need for funds or resources, just ask your family." ”

Zhong Runing was finally tired of playing, and was taken away by the nanny and was about to be coaxed to sleep, lying on the nanny's shoulder and yawning, but still not forgetting to say good night to Tong Qiangqiang with a milky voice: "Little sister-in-law Gu Nai~"
Tong Qiangqiang smiled and waved in response to her, then spread out his hands to see his palms that were slapped red, shook his head helplessly, got up and walked towards the bathroom.
Just about to step into the aisle, suddenly a figure jumped out and shouted: "Ahahahahaha! The ambush is successful! The devil looks at the trick!biubiubiu~"
Unguarded, Tong Qiangqiang was so frightened that his heart almost pinched into a point, and he instinctively retreated, but he didn't know what he tripped under his feet, and the whole person fell backwards in an instant.
There was no fulcrum to rely on around, she hurriedly stretched out her palm to support herself, and the moment she fell to the ground, she clearly felt a slight tremor in her lower abdomen.
Zhong Ruzhen found out about the situation for the first time, and rushed over with thunder and lightning: "Are you okay?"
Tong Qiangqiang sat on the ground, caressing his lower abdomen, his face turned pale, and he did not speak.
Zhong Ruchen didn't seem to know the seriousness of the matter at all, and was still shooting at Tong Qiangqiang with his toy gun condescendingly.
Zhong Ruzhen turned his head and gave Zhong Ruchen a slap with his backhand: "Biu, you big-headed ghost!"
Zhong Ruchen was thrown and fell to the ground, and immediately cried "wow".
The noisy cry lingered in his ears, and Tong Qiangqiang's blank head finally made waves.
But as far as she could see, a figure walked towards her with long legs, crouched in front of her with a familiar smell similar to the smell of tobacco, held her face with two palms, forced her to look up, and commanded in a deep voice: "Say a word!"
Han Lie's expression was as hard as a piece of iron, Tong Qiangqiang looked at him steadily, and pouted his lips: "I ......"
As soon as she spit out a word, Han Lie Huo Ran picked her up from the ground.
"What's wrong?"
Zhong Jie, Hu Xiaoting, Zhu Jinhua and Zhong Wenhao all rushed over when they heard Zhong Ruchen's cry, and they met Han Lie hugging Tong Qiangqiang with a cold expression.
