Chapter 133: Bastard
"I wonder if there is any misunderstanding here? Because the person I found out is your daughter-in-law, Liang Xueyan. When Zhao Honghai heard this name, his hand holding the phone tightened. Although he already had some premonitions in his heart, hearing this name still made his mood fluctuate slightly.
"Alright, little one, I'll take care of that. Of course, I promise that such a thing will never happen again. ”
Mu Ge was relieved after getting Zhao Honghai's assurance. He believed that Zhao Honghai was unaware of this matter, and even Liang Xueyan's behavior only represented herself or the Liang family. Now that Zhao Honghai has made a promise, he shouldn't have to worry about the next things.
Mu Ge, who hung up the phone, was still chatting with the two girls with a smile on his face. On the other side, Zhao Honghai's face became more and more solemn. After a moment's silence, he sighed and commanded outside. "Xiao Wu, go and call Yuntao and Xueyan to me. After the person outside the door agreed, he heard footsteps hurrying away.
At this time, Liang Xueyan in the room was wearing headphones, and her fingers were constantly sliding on the mobile phone screen. She was a little confused, it stands to reason that the two bugs were installed very hidden, and it was impossible for the other party to find out. But at the end of the day, there was nothing but rustling sounds, which inevitably made people wonder. Even if there is a problem with the equipment, it is impossible to have both problems at the same time.
Just when he was reborn with doubts in his heart, Zhao Yuntao walked in. "Xueyan, my father is looking for us, come with me to meet us. Hearing Zhao Yuntao's words, Liang Xueyan immediately got up, tidied up in the mirror, and followed Zhao Yuntao out of the room.
"Dad. After arriving at Zhao Honghai's study, the two immediately greeted each other respectfully. Zhao Honghai looked out the window with his hands behind his back. After hearing the greetings of the two, he turned around and nodded.
"Sit. Zhao Honghai motioned for the two to sit down, and he also sat back behind the desk. "Xue Yan, how are you cultivating lately?"
Liang Xueyan heard Zhao Honghai's question, and hurriedly bowed forward. "It's always stuck in the middle of the prefecture level, and I can't make an inch. Zhao Honghai nodded when he heard Liang Xueyan's answer. "Now there is a lack of spiritual power. It can only be accumulated through slow time. This is also something that cannot be rushed. ”
"Yes, father, I will work harder. ”
"Xueyan, have you been in contact with your mother's side recently?"
"I've been in touch a few times recently because of Liang Dong's affairs. ”
"Oh, has there been any progress on Liang Dong's matter?"
"No, his mistake was too serious, and it involved mysterious forces of terror. If it hadn't been for the greeting of the old chief he had followed, the sentence might have been heavier. ”
"Hey, that's why one misstep becomes a thousand years of hatred. People must always think about the consequences of what they do. Otherwise, once something goes wrong, it is likely to hurt yourself and your family members. ”
When Liang Xueyan heard this, her heart tightened for no reason. Although she was sure that what she had eavesdropped would not be revealed. But Old Man Zhao's words obviously mean something. Liang Xueyan's mind was racing fast, but she still didn't know why.
Zhao Honghai saw Liang Xueyan's mind at a glance, and sighed slightly. It seems that it is impossible to expect Liang Xueyan to take the initiative to explain. "Xueyan, you should know that although Lijun was expelled from the house by me, this is only a nominal matter. He is still my granddaughter Zhao Honghai. ”
Zhao Honghai's speed of speech was very slow, which made Liang Xueyan feel a kind of torment. "I think you've heard that, too. Lijun's daughter has found a very good boyfriend. I'm quite happy about that. So naturally I don't want anyone to affect their lives. I don't want anyone to use some improper means on them. Do you see what I mean?"
Liang Xueyan's heart sank to the bottom. If by this time she can't hear that what she has done has been revealed, then she is a fool. In fact, Zhao Honghai has saved face for himself in this way.
Liang Xueyan immediately bowed her head and stood up. Zhao Yuntao on the side naturally heard what his father meant. hurriedly followed Liang Xueyan to stand up.
Zhao Honghai tapped on the table. "Xue Yan, I want to hear you tell me in person, why did you do this?" Liang Xueyan's body trembled slightly. For a person who has been cultivating for many years, how unstable his heart must be to have such a performance.
After a few breaths, Liang Xueyan still gritted her teeth and opened her mouth. "Father, I was wrong. I shouldn't have let people go to Tang Xue to install bugs. ”
"What?!" Zhao Yuntao on the side couldn't help but exclaim when he heard Liang Xueyan's words. Although he guessed that Liang Xueyan might have done something inappropriate. I never thought it would be so serious.
At this time, Liang Xueyan had no time to take into account Zhao Yuntao's feelings, and since she had already started, she could only say it head-on. "I just heard that Tang Xue has a good boyfriend. I want to examine his character in this way. I'm actually kind, too. ”
After Zhao Xueyan gave this explanation, the room suddenly became unusually quiet, without the slightest sound. Only the sound of Zhao Honghai gently tapping on the table, one at a time, not hurried, but extremely clear.
Half a minute later, Zhao Xueyan's cold sweat fell. "I ...... I know he killed Yu Weihong. So...... So I guess the map might be on him. ”
Zhao Yuntao was still shocked, he didn't expect that he hadn't hidden this matter from his wife after all. In fact, it was not only his wife, but when he learned the news, he had such suspicions and reminded his father. It's just that my father didn't react much, and reminded himself to keep it secret, so the matter was gone. But I didn't expect the person next to my pillow to react very quickly.
Zhao Honghai sighed. "So, the Liang family also knows?"
"No, I didn't tell them. If they find out, I'm afraid they'll ............ So it's just a matter of secretly investigating on your own. ”
"Then if you find out, he does have a map in his hand. ”
"I, I don't know. ”
"Okay. Zhao Honghai stood up as he spoke, and slowly paced in the room. "Xue Yan, that kid from more than ten years ago......"
Liang Xueyan didn't listen to Old Man Zhao's words, her body went limp, and she knelt on the ground with a thud. Zhao Yuntao on the side, his heart was even more turbulent. He couldn't figure out how many secrets his wife was still hiding from him.
"I know that the child was rescued by your brother, but he didn't bring it back, but sent it to the orphanage, right?" Zhao Honghai's words smashed into Liang Xueyan's heart like a heavy hammer, which suddenly made her emotions almost out of control, and tears kept flowing downward.
"Actually, I knew it from the beginning, but I didn't pursue it again. You know what I mean?"
Liang Xueyan broke down and began to cry. She didn't expect that in fact, Old Man Zhao knew everything. But after so many years, it has never been mentioned. The old man's deep meaning of doing this, she naturally knows. It is because of this that she is even more ashamed. So many years of suspicion also came to naught in this instant.
"After Yuntao lost his wife, he lost his sharpness and had nothing to love. It was your care that brought him back on his feet. So I don't want to pursue a lot of faults. But I only have one request, from now on you are just Yuntao's wife, just a member of my Zhao family, you can do it?"
Liang Xueyan knelt on the ground, wiped the tears from her face, and nodded heavily. "I can. I will never do anything that harms the interests of the Zhao family in the future. Something like the one that happened before will never happen again. ”
"Well, that's the end of it. Zhao Yuntao was completely stunned when he heard this. "Father, what the hell is going on? Where is that kid now?"
Zhao Honghai smiled bitterly in his heart. has been dominant all his life, but he gave birth to such a son like the male protagonist in Qiong Yao's drama. Lijun's mother's death almost killed him, and if he punished Liang Xueyan now, he didn't know how much trouble he would make.
Fortunately, my daughter-in-law is quite kind-hearted. Although he is very selfish, his methods are not vicious. Because of this, Zhao Honghai thought about it again and again and planned to give her another chance.
"Yuntao, the child you picked up back at the beginning is Tang Xue's boyfriend Mu Ge today. When Zhao Yuntao heard the answer given by his father, he suddenly felt in a trance. Sigh at the magic of fate. Sometimes the world is big, and sometimes it's too small.
Zhao Yuntao suddenly squatted on the ground, grabbed his wife's shoulder, and yelled loudly: "Why, I don't understand why your brother abandoned him in an orphanage since he saved that child?"
Since Liang Xueyan has let go, she doesn't mind telling the truth. "You brought that child back from the wilderness. I see that you and your father are so doting on him, I ...... I was mistaken at one point, he was your illegitimate child out there. Although I kept denying it in my heart, I still had a thorn in my heart. What's more, I heard my father say that this child has excellent roots and is worth focusing on. I ......"
"You're afraid that he will compete for the cultivation resources that belong to Zhao Yan in the future, right?" Without Liang Xueyan to continue, Zhao Yuntao had already guessed all her thoughts.
"Hey, in fact, Xue Yan's concerns are not wrong. Now there is a lack of cultivation resources. If Mugo stays in our house, it will be a matter of course. ”
"So father, when you found out that they had abandoned their children in an orphanage, they didn't react. I have been pretending not to know about it. ”
Zhao Honghai nodded. "When I heard the news, I hesitated. In the end, I decided to give up on raising that child. This is also for your little family, for Zhao Yan. ”
