At this time, Ling Yuanqiang also regained the stability of the children of the family, and at the same time, with the unique wisdom of the blood of the Ling family, he pondered for a long time, and said: "First, take this opportunity to gather the people of our Ling family and attack their Shangguan family through all means. Second, it is enough to contact the Kong family and the Murong family and let them sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight. Third....... ”

Emperor Zero nodded again and again and asked, "What is the third?" ”

"Third, I think we can agree to Chu Nan's proposal, if our Ling family agrees to Chu Nan's proposal, won't the Shangguan family lose face!"

Zero Emperor snorted coldly, and said in a deep voice: "Yuanqiang, what benefits did you stinky boy receive from Chu Nan to help him speak like this." You have to remember to me that you will be the head of the Zero family in the future, and any decision must be made from the perspective of the Zero family. ”

Zero Emperor's unangry and self-authoritative expression made Ling Yuanqiang's heart tighten, and he lowered his head, and was about to close his mouth, Zero Emperor has the same character as a soldier, and he has also cultivated Ling Yuanqiang as a soldier since he was a child, which makes Ling Yuanqiang have a sense of awe for his father since he was a child, just like a subordinate treats his superiors.

Seeing that Ling Yuanqiang had an attitude of admitting his mistake, Ling Huang's face softened a little, and he snorted coldly, and was about to reprimand Ling Yuanqiang, but Ling Yuanqiang suddenly raised his head again, in this life, he rarely clashed with his father so positively, rarely refuted his father so much, this is the first time, for the sake of his sister's lifelong happiness, he decided to be uncompromising.

When he saw Zero Yuanqiang's eyes, Zero Emperor couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, the stubbornness and uncompromise in that kind of look was something that Zero Emperor had never seen in Zero Yuanqiang's eyes, maybe Zero Yuanqiang was arrogant in front of others, but in front of him as a strict father, he was always as docile as a lamb, and Zero Emperor had never seen Zero Yuanqiang look at him with such a stubborn look, that kind of stubbornness and unyielding seemed to be unshaken.

Emperor Zero frowned and said coldly, "What are you going to say." ”

"Father, I think Luoxi is my sister and your daughter, we have to start from the perspective of the zero family, but we also need to look at the problem from Luoxi's standpoint."

"Oh?" Emperor Zero said in a cold tone, "Are you questioning me?" ”

"The son shouldn't have questioned his father's decision, but Luoxi is my sister, and marrying someone is a lifelong event that can determine the happiness of a lifetime, and the son still hopes that his father can respect her choice and not force others to make it difficult."

Emperor Zero said angrily, "You mean, I'm persecuting him?" ”

"Yes!" Ling Yuanqiang straightened his chest and said loudly, "Father, you have been very strict with me since I was a child, but I still keep remembering that you have repeatedly told me that Luoxi is my only sister in this world, and I, as an elder brother, must continue to become stronger and stronger, only then can I protect her." If I can't even maintain the lifelong happiness that is most important to her, how can I be her brother? What to talk about protecting my sister? ”

Ling Yuanqiang seemed to have finally vented, since he had spoken, he refused to stop, and kept saying loudly: "Father, the family is the most important thing to you, but this can't be at the expense of Luoxi, a man lets his daughter make sacrifices, so what kind of man is he?" ”

This sentence is already very heavy, even Zhang Dashan's face changed slightly after hearing it, and Zero Emperor slapped it out directly, directly on Ling Yuanqiang's face, Ling Yuanqiang staggered back slightly, and quickly stood up again, without giving in at all, he has listened to his father since he was a child, but now, for the happiness of his sister, even if he goes up the knife mountain and down the sea of fire, he will not give in.

Emperor Zero glared at his son, his chest rose and fell slightly, and he pointed not far away and said, "Get out of here!" ”

Ling Yuanqiang bowed slightly to Zero Emperor, and said: "Father, I still hope that your son's words can be listened to by you, Luoxi has not been very happy in the past few years, she has a knot in her heart that has not yet been untied, I also hope that you can think about it, on the one hand, for Luoxi's lifelong consideration, on the other hand, don't become a father or a daughter in the future." The son went back first. ”

Ling Yuanqiang said, and left slowly, for the first time in his life, he refuted his father in person like this, and even he didn't understand how he had this courage, just like a soldier confronting his commander face to face, this really requires considerable courage, for the sake of his sister, he also has to continue this courage.

After Ling Yuanqiang left the courtyard, Zero Emperor took a deep breath, then looked at Zhang Dashan and said, "Dashan, in my memory, this child dares to talk to me like this for the first time. ”

Zhang Dashan said in a calm tone: "It's the first time I've seen it. ”

"Well, the stinky boy has grown up and his wings are stiff."

"Isn't that what you want to see?"

"Hahaha, yes, yes." Surprisingly, Emperor Zero not only did not get angry, but laughed out loud, "The leader of a family is only willing and has less responsibility, how can such a man be a good leader?" How to revitalize the family? It is difficult to fight the country, and it is even more difficult to defend the country. In fact, although the Shangguan family is aggressive, they are not a big trouble in my eyes, in my heart, what really worries me is the stinky boy Yuanqiang, worried that he is not capable of inheriting the great cause. ”

Zhang Dashan said: "Patriarch, you seem to be overly worried, Yuanqiang is only submissive in front of you, in fact, his appearance outside has always been very good." ”

"That's not enough." Emperor Zero said loudly, "If you want to be a leader, you must be an iron-blooded man who insists on his own opinions even if he is pointed out by thousands of people." Okay, Dashan, do you think I should also choose Chu Nan? ”

Zhang Dashan said: "The eldest lady likes him, so I think he is suitable." ”

"Yes." Zero Emperor nodded slightly, and sighed, "It is precisely because of Luo Xi's thoughts that I have not forced him, I have dragged on for more than half a year, in fact, I am not giving Chu Nan a chance, but giving Shangguan Yun a chance, although I intend to let the Ling family marry the Shangguan family, but I also hope that it will be under Luoxi's satisfaction, but unfortunately, even if half a year has passed, Shangguan Yun has no way to make Luoxi like him." ”

Zhang Dashan looked at the old man in front of him, and felt a little emotional in his heart that it was not easy for him, outsiders could only see his domineering and strong, and even his own children could only see these, but he didn't understand that this old man actually wanted to take care of the entire family and his relatives.

At this time, a young woman in her thirties who looked quite beautiful walked slowly towards this side, and Emperor Zero showed a smile on her face, waved her hand and said, "Chunfang, why are you here?" ”

"Come and see you!" This woman is in her thirties, and she looks like she has a mature charm, but this beauty is not aggressive, it still feels very gentle and comfortable, she is Liu Chunfang, a woman who married Liu Chunfang a few years ago after the death of the original partner, and it is precisely because of marrying her that the estrangement between Zero Luoxi and Zero Emperor has deepened, and Zero Luoxi is extremely resistant to her stepmother, and although Zero Yuanqiang said that her attitude towards this stepmother is better, she has always been well-behaved, and there is no intimacy at all.

After she walked in front of Emperor Zero, she looked at Emperor Zero with gentle eyes and said, "Emperor, I met Yuan Qiang on the road just now, his face didn't seem to be very good, you said him again?" ”

"Yes." Zero Emperor said, "This stinky boy is getting more and more disagreeable, and he dares to talk back to me." ”

Liu Chunfang pursed her lips and smiled: "Does this kid dare to talk back to you?" But after all, Yuanqiang is not young, and he has his own ideas, young people also want to save face, you can't always criticize him loudly when you have nothing to do. ”

Liu Chunfang helped Zero Emperor tidy up his collar, looked at Zero Emperor affectionately, and said softly: "It's windy, let's go back to the house and talk." Emperor, tomorrow is your birthday, and you will be busy by then, so take a good rest today and raise enough energy. ”

"Yes."

Emperor Zero nodded in agreement, and walked towards the house with Liu Chunfang in his arms, followed by Zhang Dashan.

"Emperor, tomorrow on your birthday, you must also invite the Shangguan family, right?"

"yes, what's wrong?" Emperor Zero looked at Liu Chunfang with a curious expression.

Liu Chunfang hesitated for a moment and whispered: "Perhaps, what I said may not necessarily be said, and it may also make you unhappy, but Luoxi's matter ...... I think it's better to let Zero Zero solve it by himself. ”

"Oh?" Emperor Zero asked, "That's what you think?" ”

"Yes." Liu Chunfang nodded slightly, and said, "Luoxi, this child's character is very strong, the most unbearable thing is that others force her, and if she recognizes a man, she will definitely not change, I know that you are for the good of the entire Ling family, but if you really force her to marry into the Shangguan family, not only will she be unhappy in the second half of her life, but also your father and daughter may never have a chance to reconcile as before." ”

Emperor Zero's footsteps paused, listened to Liu Chunfang's words, sighed softly, and said with emotion: "Chunfang ......." ”

"Well, the master won't blame me, right?"

"I don't blame you, in fact, you impress me. Luoxi's attitude towards you has never been very good, and she hasn't called you a mom ...... until now. ”

Liu Chunfang smiled bitterly and said: "She has a good relationship with her mother, I can understand this, I believe that sooner or later, Luoxi will definitely accept me." Actually, it doesn't matter to me, the most important thing is you, you are Luoxi's father, but because of me, it caused such a big gap between you, Emperor, do you regret it? ”

"Nope." Zero Emperor gently hugged Liu Chunfang, the firmness in his eyes was so familiar, it was exactly the same as Zero Luoxi's eyes, and at the same time, he said with great certainty, "I have no regrets in my life." ”
