Chapter 421 Fishing in Troubled Waters
Zhou Chengzhi shook his head: "I don't know much about their family, and Shen Qingping and I are just nodding acquaintances. I didn't expect them to invite us this time."
Fang Hua sneered: "Making such a big show of it, I thought they valued this daughter a lot. If they really valued her, they wouldn't have sent her to the countryside back then. Life in the countryside was much harder than in the city back then. With the Shen family's resources in the city, they would never have gone hungry."
Zhou Chengzhi was too lazy to gossip: "If you have time on Sunday, you can go over there. If you don't have time, then don't go. I'm not going anyway."
Fang Hua didn't want to go at first, but he was also a little curious, so he asked Jiang Zhizhi, "Zhizhi, if you have Sunday off, let's go together."
Jiang Zhizhi had no objection; she was curious too: "Okay, let's go take a look."
Zhou Chengzhi stopped talking about it and started teasing Xiao Zhouji, chuckling as he pinched his little ears: "Look at Xiao Zhouji's ears, he's definitely a lucky person. I'll take Xiao Zhouji to work on Sunday."
Fang Hua glared at him: "Isn't that ridiculous? You still have time to work?"
Zhou Chengzhi chuckled: "It's alright. There's nothing much to do on Sunday anyway. I'll just take him over and let those old guys have a look. Otherwise, He Jianian would definitely take little Zhou away since he's off on Sunday."
Fang Hua was both amused and exasperated: "You really are something. I heard from Zhuang Qin that He Jianian has officially stepped down. He'll have plenty of time then, and he can pick up Xiao Zhou every day."
Zhou Chengzhi thought for a moment, then said somewhat resentfully, "Then I'll try to retire as soon as possible, and then I'll take Xiao Zhouji fishing every day."
After saying that, he rubbed Xiao Zhouji's head and said, "Xiao Zhouji, let's go fishing, okay?"
Little Zhouji immediately nodded happily: "Go, Grandpa, let's go."
As he was about to get up and tumble off his little chair, Zhou Chengzhi quickly stopped him: "Oh, my little darling, not today, I'm talking about a period of time."
Little Zhou was unhappy and kept pointing outside, wanting to leave.
Zhou Chengzhi quickly tried to comfort him.
Fang Hua sneered, "Serves you right!"
Jiang Zhizhi smiled as she looked at the harmonious family.
Just then, a phone call came in from the doorway, saying that someone named Liao Guoqing was coming to visit.
When Sister Chen answered the phone, Fang Hua refused without even thinking: "Who is he? I won't see him. Tell the person at the door not to waste their time."
Seeing that Fang Hua was angry, Zhou Chengzhi lowered his voice and asked carefully, "What's wrong? What happened that made you so angry?"
Fang Hua angrily recounted Liao Guoqing's actions.
Zhou Chengzhi knew about Jin Huaiying's death, but he didn't expect Liao Guoqing to be so despicable. After thinking for a moment, he said, "You should also be wary of Liao Guoqing resorting to desperate measures."
But in his heart, he was thinking that he should deal with Liao Guoqing as soon as possible, lest things get complicated.
Fang Hua thought it made sense: "Zhizhi, you have to be careful. Liao Guoqing is capable of anything. I'll have Xiye pick you up and drop you off at get off work recently."
Jiang Zhizhi shook her head: "Mom, no need. If he really had such thoughts, we would definitely be caught off guard. Right now, he probably wants to salvage the situation first."
Fang Hua frowned: "It's such a waste of all the skills that Teacher Jin taught me. Why can't I just be a good doctor? Why do I have to be so ambitious?"
Zhou Chengzhi agreed: "Having ambition is a good thing, but you have to take the right path. If you're going to scheme like this, you'll only end up scheming against yourself."
...
Liao Guoqing came to Fang Hua, wanting to apologize in person and also to Jiang Zhizhi, thinking that as long as he humbled himself enough, they would let him go.
Moreover, he had done Fang Hua a favor.
But to everyone's surprise, Fang Hua wouldn't even let him through the gate.
Liao Guoqing, carrying two bottles of Moutai, stood at the door for a while, sulking. Then he went to find Su Liting. If he could get the notebook from Jiang Zhizhi, he would use the contents to publish a few academic reports.
You can always get back on your feet.
Su Liting was considering taking Jin Kang away if things got really bad. Although Liao Guoqing's words were tempting, she didn't want her son to know anything about it.
She didn't want her son to look down on her, and besides, she and Liao Guoqing only had that one time, and it wasn't because of feelings, but because she cheated on him while drunk.
Just as I was struggling with this decision, Liao Guoqing came over.
Su Liting knew that Liao Guoqing must have something to say to her, so she took out ten yuan and gave it to Jin Kang, telling him to go out for a walk.
The nineteen-year-old boy already understood a lot. Holding the ten yuan, he struggled for a long time before giving Liao Guoqing a hateful look, clutching the money as he left.
Liao Guoqing naturally saw the hatred in Jin Kang's eyes and glared at Su Liting: "This child, why is he glaring at me? What does he mean? Does he know that I am his father!"
Su Liting quickly covered his mouth: "What are you yelling about? What do you want to do? If Jin Kang finds out, are you trying to kill us, mother and son?"
If the outside world knew that Jin Kang was an illegitimate child, they would be bombarded with spittle.
Liao Guoqing was somewhat dissatisfied: "What did I say wrong? He is my son, yet he dared to glare at me. It's not excessive for me to teach him a lesson."
Su Liting sneered: "You keep calling him your son, but do you dare to acknowledge him? Do you dare to let your husband know that you have another son outside of your marriage?"
Liao Guoqing was speechless. He really didn't dare. His wife was a native of Beijing, and his father-in-law was a leader in the factory. Although he didn't have great abilities, he helped him stay in Beijing.
Su Liting frowned at Liao Guoqing: "Since you don't dare, don't say such things in the future. I suspect that Jiang Zhizhi already knows about this. I don't want this matter to escalate further. I plan to take Jin Kang back."
"no!"
Liao Guoqing interrupted her anxiously before she could finish, "You're just leaving like that? Wouldn't that be letting Jiang Zhizhi have it all? You have no idea how important the handwritten copy Jin Huaiying left behind is."
"This is even more impressive than leaving behind a vast fortune. You really don't think about yourself or Jin Kang at all?"
Su Liting was a little annoyed: "I went to her to ask for it, and she said she didn't have it. What proof do I have that I definitely have it? You said you've seen it, but can I ask you to be a witness? If I ask you to be a witness, our relationship will be exposed, and what are you going to do about Jin Kang?"
Liao Guoqing raised his hand: "Don't worry, things aren't as complicated as you think. If you can't handle it, go to the hospital leaders, like Jiang Zhizhi, and make a scene to demand this thing. Stick to the fact that Jin Huaiying said before she died that this thing was in Jiang Zhizhi's hands."
"Jiang Zhizhi wants to leave no evidence, so let's take advantage of this chaos!"
