"Hengheng!" Shen Yiru called him, stood up, and just wanted to chase after him, but was stopped by Lou Shaotang's cold voice, "Let him go." ”

"Shaotang!" Shen Yiru finally couldn't help it, and slapped the chopsticks on the table, although she didn't use any force, but her anger and resentment were revealed.

Lou Shaotang didn't care, and picked up the chopsticks by himself, "Eat." ”

His tone was light, but he couldn't be ignored. Shen Yiru hesitated, and finally sat down.

"Maman, why is my brother angry?" Rui Rui's little head turned back from the door of the restaurant where Hengheng disappeared, looked at me, and asked with a puzzled expression.

I didn't know what reason to make up to lie to her for a while, so I had to smile and say, "Rui Rui, eat." ”

Rui Rui didn't ask any more questions, and obediently picked up a small spoon to scoop up the rice and eat.

The atmosphere that was originally quite harmonious became suffocated by this episode, and no one spoke anymore, only the sound of moving dishes and chopsticks.

felt that the contradiction was about to arise again, so I took the initiative to clip chopsticks for Shen Yiru, and then asked Rui Rui to sing to us.

Rui Rui was very expressive, and immediately sang it to us, one song after the next, and by the time the fourth song was sung, the restaurant was already full of laughter and applause.

The meal was not too depressed after all.

After dinner, Lou Shaotang said that he had business to deal with and went to the upstairs study. Shen Yiru asked Sister-in-law Liu to serve a bowl of rice, and put some dishes to send to Hengheng, I said to her, or I will send it, she thought for a moment, nodded and agreed.

I went upstairs, and when I was about to get to Hengheng's room, I heard Hengheng's voice coming from his room.

"You spoil other people's children, what about me? Ever had a deep smile? Have you ever had a word of concern and warmth? He was slightly emotional, and there was anger, questioning, and sadness in his voice.

Lou Shaotang's voice sounded in the next moment, "You are a boy, and your attitude towards you is naturally different." His tone was calm and calm, the same as his usual attitude towards Hengheng.

Hengheng sneered coldly as if he didn't agree, "I think it's because my mother is different that I treat them differently." ”

"It's not." Lou Shaotang immediately said, his tone was categorical, "Because you are my son and the eldest of the fourth generation of the Lou family, if there is no accident, 'Tianyue' will be inherited by you in the future, and I am strict with you, even harsh." ”

"Harsh?" Hengheng sneered again, "I think it's more appropriate to use ruthlessness." ”

Lou Shaotang was silent.

I walked lightly to the door.

The door was not shut, revealing a crack two fingers wide.

I looked through the crack in the door.

The two of them were facing me sideways, standing opposite each other, both with one hand in their trouser pockets, similar side faces, similar expressions, and similar temperaments, which made me suddenly amused, but I was immediately restrained by the cold atmosphere they created.

"Hengheng, don't you understand?" Lou Shaotang finally spoke again, with a solemn expression, "If you want to stand at the top of the cruel and ruthless biological chain in the future, and not be devoured and eliminated by competitors, from now on, you must accept even more cruel and merciless hammering." ”

He paused, his expression more majestic, "Remember, you are a man, a man of the Lou family, and you are shouldering the family mission of leading "Tianyue" to go further and better. Your task now is to make yourself stronger, not to be jealous of a little girl, to worry about whether you will get more love from me. ”

Hengheng pursed his lips tightly and said nothing, as if he was subdued by Lou Shaotang's words.

"But now that you've said it, I'll talk to you about it." Lou Shaotang's words changed, and his tone became slightly gentle.

He glanced at the single sofa on the side, went over, sat down, and then turned his head to the side of the long sofa on his diagonal side, motioning for Hengheng to sit down as well.

Hengheng hesitated for 2 seconds, walked over, and sat down.

Lou Shaotang folded his legs, leaned back, and put his hands on his lap.

"Why am I so nice to Ruirui?" He looked at Heng Heng, his expression was sincere and unmistakable, "First of all, Rui Rui is a girl, and of course my attitude towards her is soft. Secondly, she is not surnamed Lou, and she does not shoulder such a heavy responsibility as you, so it is impossible for me to demand her with the standard of demanding you. What's more, her father is no longer there, she is still so young, she needs her father's love very much, and now I am the only one who can give her this father's love. And I had to love her more than her father in order for her to accept me. ”

"Her father is gone?" Hengheng frowned suspiciously, as if he didn't understand the meaning of Lou Shaotang's words.

At the mention of Zhai Jin, Lou Shaotang's face turned cold, "That person is dead." The voice was also cold.

"Dead, dead?" Hearing that Zhai Jin was dead, Heng Heng was shocked, and his eyes widened.

"Hmm." Lou Shaotang didn't seem to want to continue talking about Zhai Jin.

Hengheng seemed very happy, "Heh, it's really an eye-opener!" "There's a thrill of revenge.

"How did he die?" He asked.

Lou Shaotang didn't answer, he looked to the side with his eyes, as if he was reluctant to answer, and as if he was thinking about something.

After a moment, he turned his face and looked back at Hengheng again, "You ask yourself, do I really not love you and don't care about you?" ”

Unexpectedly, he changed his words, Heng Heng was taken aback for a moment, and then frowned slightly, lowered his eyelids, and retorted wordlessly.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Lou Shaotang said again: "It's not just me, in fact, Aunt Tu has always cared about you and treated you very well, you should have known this 3 years ago." ”

When Hengheng heard this, he raised his face violently, "I don't know!" He was annoyed, "I only know that she broke up you and your mother, and finally killed your mother in a mental hospital, I hate her!" Hate her! ”

Lou Shaotang sighed helplessly, "I have explained to you many times, even if there is no Aunt Tu, your mother and I will not be together again, we are long in the past, I have no love for her for a long time, I am just grateful to her for sacrificing herself and giving birth to you for me, other than that, there is no other feeling." But this kindness has also been erased because of the hurtful things your mother did to the person I loved, but I still think of her good past, otherwise how could I still care about her and give her the best treatment? ”

After a pause, he continued: "As for your mother's illness, it has nothing to do with Aunt Tu, it is caused by her own inability to extricate herself from the past, and it makes no sense for you to be angry with Aunt Tu and hate her. And you forgot, when your mother was about to kill you, she didn't even want her own life to save you. ”

Heng Heng frowned and snorted disdainfully, "Who is rare for her to save." Immediately said angrily: "I don't understand, there are so many women in the world, why do you have to be her?" You both broke up 3 years ago, and now you are together again, not only that, but you also want to recognize her and your enemies' children as daughters. You're not afraid of being laughed at by others, I still feel ashamed! ”

In the end, Hengheng was already flushed with anger and stood up from the sofa.

As a junior, his words were out of proportion, but Lou Shaotang was not angry, he just pursed his lips, and his expression became solemn, "Hengheng, there are some things I told you now, you may not understand, when you grow up and understand adult love, you will understand." Tu Ying and I, whoever of us left lost his soul, and he was alive and dead. ”

Xu is seeing Lou Shaotang reveal the softest side of his heart to him, or maybe he never thought that his father who he admired the most would also have such a soft and fragile side, Hengheng was surprised, opened his mouth slightly, and looked at him worriedly.

But I was touched to the softest place in my heart by Lou Shaotang's words, my eyes were sour, and tears slipped out, but I quickly wiped them off and pulled my lips and smiled.

"Anyway, I just hate her, and I won't recognize her as my stepmother."

Seeing that he had said so much, Heng Heng was still stubborn, and Lou Shaotang sighed helplessly.

"Forget it, what do you want to do, I'm not reluctant, but I hope you don't treat her and Rui Rui so badly, even if you hate her. Tu Ying is my wife, the woman I love the most, if you are disrespectful to her and hurt her, you are disrespectful to me and hurt me. And Rui Rui is even more innocent. Can you do this? ”

Hengheng stared at Lou Shaotang, feeling like he was weighing and contradictory, and after a long time, two words burst out from between his pursed lips, "Can't." The tone was firm.

I turned around and leaned against the wall, feeling very sad and sad.

It's not for Hengheng that he can't have a good attitude towards me and Ruirui, but for the words they said before.

It turned out that Lou Shaotang's attitude towards Hengheng was so cold, but it was actually well-intentioned. As an adult, I can understand, but Hengheng is still a child after all, he has lost his mother's love, and now he has not received his father's greetings, this kind of straightforward care, he will definitely be very hurt.

No, not will, but already hurt.

But although Lou Shaotang's approach is not close to people, it is not wrong.

It's just Hengheng, I feel so sorry for him.

Looking at the already cold food on the tray in my hand, I wiped away the tears that had fallen unconsciously, and turned to go downstairs.

"Hengheng didn't eat?" Seeing that I came down with the food again, Shen Yiru stepped forward and asked me, but her expression was that she had expected this to be the result.

"I'll deliver it." She was about to take the tray, I put my hand to the side, and said with a smile: "No, it's Shaotang chatting with Hengheng, it's inconvenient for me to go in, so I'll come down first, and when they're done chatting later, I'll send the dishes hot and then send them up." ”

"Oh."

Shen Yiru was not surprised, from her reaction, I could see that Lou Shaotang should have communicated with Hengheng often.

is also, otherwise how could Hengheng have such a deep affection for Lou Shaotang, and worship him like a god; will also think that Lou Shaotang loves Ruirui more than himself and is extremely unhappy.

It's just that Hengheng has never confessed to Lou Shaotang his desire and care for his father's love as he did just now, and Lou Shaotang has never regarded him as a teenager who needs to be straightforward about his father's love.

Most of them are fishing, playing Go, tasting tea, talking about financial investment, current political situation, etc., and the way they communicate and get along is completely two adult men.

It's time for a change of way of getting along.

gave the food to Sister-in-law Liu, and Shen Yiru ordered someone to make a pot of tea and asked me to sit down and talk to her.

Actually, I wanted to talk to her, so I sat down on the sofa on her left.

"Mom," I've just called her that after so long here. Before, because Rui Rui was there, she couldn't be called that in front of her, but now she went to the garden with the maid to play.

"Are you trying to ask me, why did I let Shaotang take you and your daughter here for dinner?"
