Although Zhou Jiasheng often saw Zhou Zhixin and General Zhou on TV and knew that the Zhou family was doing well, he still couldn't help but miss home. The Chinese New Year is a day of celebration for all the people!

I wonder how my little sister is doing this year? Has her skills improved? And mom, have you listened to him and stopped working so hard?

"Sister Mi, notify everyone to pack up their current research projects and archive them. The institute will be on holiday starting tomorrow and will return to work on the eighth day of the New Year." As soon as Zhou Jiasheng finished speaking, Sister Mi cheered excitedly like a girl in her twenties, and ran off to notify all colleagues.

"Yeah! I'm finally on vacation! I'm dying of exhaustion!"

"Xiaomi, did King Zhou really say we're going on holiday? You're not kidding us, are you?"

"Great! I thought Director Zhou was a robot! And the kind that never gets tired."

"Whether you have money or not, go home and spend the New Year reunion with your family! Hahaha..."

······

Through the door, Zhou Jiasheng heard the words of the staff from various departments of the institute and couldn't help but be shocked.

When things got busy, Zhou Jiasheng almost forgot that his physical fitness was unmatched. He not only practiced Zhao Qingshan's family martial arts, but also took the pills Zhou Yuanyuan had Xiaoyu prepare specifically for him. He was so energetic that he didn't even think about going without sleep for three days and nights. But unlike ordinary people like Sister Mi, the constant, intense work around the clock did take its toll on their bodies.

Next time he must remember to rest when he needs to, otherwise he will definitely be scolded as inhuman by the scientists under him.

Let’s not talk about Zhou Jiasheng’s side, let’s just talk about General Zhou. Zhou Zhixin asked General Zhou if he had any other instructions, then stood up and went to work.

Zhou Zhixin was late today, not because he had nothing to do. With the New Year approaching, there were still a lot of things waiting for Zhou Zhixin to decide and resolve in the army! It was General Zhou who wanted to discuss something with Zhou Zhixin and his wife, which was why Zhou Zhixin was a little late.

Zhou Zhixin just told Zhou Yuanyuan that he was not busy, and he said that just to match the enthusiastic General Zhou.

Zhou Yuanyuan knew that General Zhou liked to see her being a good kid, so she was very cooperative and never showed her dominance in front of him. Even the most capable children are always the ones to be protected by their families, and Zhou Yuanyuan kept this in mind.

General Zhou has a strong personality, which was honed during his many years of military career. General Zhou's wife and children died early, and Zhou Xi was a person who obeyed General Zhou's orders in everything, so General Zhou's dominance was a natural thing.

General Zhou was already in his sixties when he recognized Zhou Zhixin. Even with grandchildren around him, General Zhou's strong personality was hard to change. Although Zhou Zhixin and Zhao Yunxiang were close to General Zhou, when General Zhou made a decision, Zhou Zhixin and his wife would subconsciously become quails, agreeing with whatever General Zhou said.

Only Zhou Yuanyuan was unafraid of General Zhou's imposing presence. During family gatherings, Zhou Yuanyuan would say anything Zhou Zhixin and Zhao Yunxiang wouldn't dare. General Zhou genuinely loved Zhou Yuanyuan, a well-behaved woman who wouldn't blindly pander to him. She lived up to General Zhou's expectations, becoming the life of the family at reunions, her presence bringing warmth and amusement to the atmosphere.

"Yuanyuan~! We are talking about..." Zhao Yunxiang has always been a "daughter-control" person who listens to her daughter. When Zhou Yuanyuan asked, she quickly wanted to tell her daughter what had just happened.

"Hmm~!" General Zhou cleared his throat and interrupted Zhao Yunxiang.

Zhao Yunxiang looked at General Zhou with an embarrassment on her face, not knowing whether to continue revealing the secrets to Zhou Yuanyuan.

"My dear great-granddaughter! I have some good news, but I won't be able to tell you for a few days." General Zhou said cheerfully, but he rejected Zhao Yunxiang's plan. Hey! If he wants to talk about this, he should wait for the old man to talk. His granddaughter-in-law can't ruin his chance to tease his dear great-granddaughter. General Zhou thought secretly.

Wow? What's the secret behind this happy event? Did Great-Grandpa pack up and give away my eldest brother? General Zhou piqued Zhou Yuanyuan's curiosity.

It's no wonder Zhou Yuanyuan thinks this way. Zhou Jiasheng is truly exceptional, having always been the "other people's kid" from childhood. Compared to Zhou Jiasheng, Zhou Yuanyuan clearly knows how to hide his shortcomings. Take the issue of further education, for example! Zhou Jiasheng skipped a grade to attend university. While Ren Zhongyuan, his classmate, is still a senior in high school, Zhou Jiasheng has already graduated and established his research institute two years ago.

After Zhou Jiasheng went to college, many people came to General Zhou's side, either openly or secretly, to get together for Zhou Jiasheng, including Cao Yunfei and Zhu Xiangyang. It was said that even the top leader had asked General Zhou about Zhou Jiasheng for his granddaughter. Who wouldn't want to marry his granddaughter to such an outstanding man?

Zhou Jiasheng, however, showed no self-awareness of his status as a "rich son-in-law." He spent his days at the research institute, preoccupied with nothing but his vast pile of experiments and data, devoid of any thoughts of his young love. Zhou Yuanyuan had always wondered when General Zhou would start worrying about finding a partner for Zhou Jiasheng. After all, for a man, a stable job was a sign of adulthood. Although Zhou Jiasheng was only eighteen, seeing how General Zhou enjoyed choosing partners for his young protégés, it was only a matter of time before he fell into his clutches.

Seeing General Zhou say this, Zhao Yunxiang had no choice but to ignore Zhou Yuanyuan's curious gaze and lower her head to look at her fingers. There was nothing she could do. General Zhou's aura was too strong. In front of him, Zhao Yunxiang had no choice but to obey. However, Zhao Yunxiang was not discouraged. Yuanyuan looked well-behaved, but she often made General Zhou change his mind!

Sure enough, Zhou Yuanyuan was not satisfied with General Zhou's answer. She pulled General Zhou's arm and shook it violently, shouting, "Grandpa Zeng, please tell me what the good news is. If you don't tell me, I'm going to die of curiosity."

"Hahaha..." General Zhou laughed heartily, then waved at Zhou Yuanyuan, motioning her to come closer.

Zhou Yuanyuan leaned closer to listen. General Zhou said softly, "The boy from the Wen family, your son-in-law, has agreed to stay with us."

Son-in-law? Who is he? Wen Ziqing? What does "agree to stay in our family" mean?

When General Zhou mentioned Wen Ziqing in such an ambiguous tone, Zhou Yuanyuan felt a sudden rush of heat on her face. In everyone's eyes, had Wen Ziqing always been her son-in-law?
