When these words came out, not only Mrs. Zhong, but even Zhong Manhua was stunned.

Zhong Zhiwan looked up in disbelief: "Grandpa?"

Ask her to apologize?

Shouldn't Ying Zijin be the one to apologize?

Zhong Manhua also didn't quite understand.

As the saying goes, "A daughter who is married off is like water that has been poured out." After she married into the Ying family, she became a member of the Ying family, and her daughter also had the surname Ying.

For wealthy families who value inheritance, granddaughters-in-law are not as close as granddaughters-in-law, after all, their surnames are different.

Before Ying Zijin was found, Mr. Zhong was definitely not as nice to Xiaoxuan as he was to Zhong Zhiwan.

Why now...

"Old man!" Mrs. Zhong was immediately irritated. "Wanwan is the victim. How could you let her give birth to an adopted daughter..."

"Shut up!" Mr. Zhong roared again, "Do you have the right to speak now?"

Mrs. Zhong was stunned by the yelling.

Mr. Zhong looked at Zhong Zhiwan and asked, "Why did you throw Zijin's pet into the lake?"

Hearing this, Zhong Zhiwan's expression changed slightly.

She didn't expect that Mr. Zhong actually knew about it.

Zhong Zhiwan bit her lip and shed tears, choking out, "The school doesn't allow pets."

"So you can do whatever you want with it? Is it your pet? Are you a school leader? Huh?" Mr. Zhong's chest was heaving heavily, and he was obviously furious. "When you were a child, didn't I teach you the phrase 'return the property to its original owner'?!"

Being questioned like this, Zhong Zhiwan felt ashamed and cried even harder: "That's because, because..."

"No reason." Mr. Zhong didn't listen, "Now, apologize."

Zhong Zhiwan endured the humiliation and had to stand up and bow to the girl: "Cousin, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have thrown your pet away, please forgive me."

Ying Zijin still ignored him. She put down a box of snacks and said, "Grandpa, I'm leaving first."

"Be careful on the road." Mr. Zhong stood up and sent her out. "Grandpa will come to see you at school another day."

The door opened and closed.

The living room atmosphere is condensed and direct.

There was not even a response, which made Zhong Zhiwan feel even more aggrieved.

She threw herself into Mrs. Zhong's arms: "Mom, I've already apologized, look at her..."

When Mr. Zhong heard this, he was so angry that he had a headache: "Zhong Zhiwan, if you don't apologize, Zijin will forgive you. Are you trying to blackmail me morally? What's wrong with you recently?"

Not only did Zhong Zhiwan not get any comfort, she was scolded again and cried even more sadly.

Mrs. Zhong sighed, "Grandpa, Wanwan has apologized and knows she was wrong, so please stop scolding her. I'll take her to rest and ask for a day off from school tomorrow."

Mr. Zhong was also tired, so he waved his hand and went upstairs to his study.

After Mrs. Zhong sent Zhong Zhiwan back to the bedroom, she stopped Zhong Manhua who was about to leave.

"Manhua, what's going on with the old man?" Mrs. Zhong was unhappy. "Look, the old man actually asked Wanwan to apologize to an adopted daughter today. What does that mean?"

Zhong Manhua frowned and said, "How can we guess what Dad is thinking?"

She smiled again: "Third sister-in-law, I have to catch a plane, so I won't say more."

Mrs. Zhong didn't dare to ask any more questions and just let her leave.

——

On the way to the airport, Zhong Manhua was worried.

At the beginning, because of the loss of her baby, she was mentally disturbed for three years.

So at the beginning, she didn't know that Ying Zhenting did not find the baby, but adopted one.

Three years later, she returned to normal and got used to Xiaoxuan's company.

After Ying Zhenting told her the truth, she accepted it.

When she first brought Ying Zijin back, Zhong Manhua was quite happy, but she couldn't withstand the repeated disappointments.

And she didn't know why, but she just couldn't like Ying Zijin.

She also didn't feel the natural blood connection between mother and daughter.

As if they were not his biological children.

Zhong Manhua was extremely annoyed. She exhaled slowly and massaged her solar plexus with her fingers.

Fortunately, she will go to Europe tomorrow and will not be in the country, so out of sight, out of mind.

——

Qingzhi Middle School.

At this time, except for the boarders, all the students in the school had left.

The lights were still on on the third floor of the activity center.

That's the counseling room.

"This is her case report and test results." The psychologist from the capital put a stack of papers in front of the man. "Compared to your situation back then, it's really not that serious."

Fu Yunshen took it and looked at the pictures one by one, his expression gradually becoming colder.

The psychologist thought for a moment before speaking: "She is very strange."

Fu Yunshen raised his eyes: "Hmm?"

"Because she has recovered a lot in the past month." The psychologist nodded. "Logically speaking, people with deep depression will not experience this situation without external treatment."

He paused and said, "Given her previous condition, it's a good thing she didn't commit suicide."

Fu Yunshen's expression suddenly changed.

The psychologist coughed, stepped back, avoiding the hostility around the man, and smiled: "That's why I said she is weird. You don't have to worry about her suicidal tendencies."

Fu Yunshen did not respond. He sorted out the report and returned it.

He leaned back in his chair, his eyelashes drooping, not knowing what he was thinking.

The psychologist then said: "My hypnosis therapy failed on her."

He pinched his brows, a little helpless: "Almost... I was hypnotized by her."

"Oh?" Fu Yunshen's eyebrows curved, and he finally smiled, "You are still ranked second on the Nok Hypnotist List, how come you can't even compare to my kid?"

The psychologist was not angry, but smiled, with a slightly nostalgic tone: "I think she is very similar to someone."
