Xu Huaiyuan's voice was also much gloomy. He said coldly, "Jiang Tong! You've just hooked up with a man whose family background is a bit better than mine. If it weren't for him protecting you, would you dare to talk to me like this? You're just relying on his power and influence to support you and your daughter, right? Aren't you afraid that one day he'll abandon you? When you're down on your luck, you'll see if I can crush you."
His voice, filled with such venomous rage, truly suggested he wanted to bite her to death through the phone.
Jiang Tong laughed in exasperation, "Wow, yes, yes, I'm really scared. Just wait and see if that day ever comes!"
She hung up the phone immediately and blocked the number.
Finally, she slumped into her office chair, staring blankly at the computer screen. The Xu family must be really something to make her this angry.
But Jiang Tong wasn't afraid at all. Even if she didn't stay with Zhou Yuansheng, she could protect her two daughters and support them. Who said she needed to rely on a man?
She now owns a car, a house, and savings; her career, side businesses, and life are thriving.
The person who was clearly afraid was Xu Huaiyuan.
He can't take care of his parents right now, his company is struggling, and he has to appease his new wife.
He's the one who's suffering.
That's why he's desperate and can be driven crazy by the smallest things.
Jiang Tong was speechless when she heard that Wang Chungui had been hospitalized because she was so angry. This kind of person will eventually be driven to her own death by anger. She tried to torment others but failed, so she started to use underhanded tricks. She must have gone to Xu Huaiyuan to cry and complain.
To embellish or exaggerate.
It was just a trick Wang Chungui used to play. Xu Huaiyuan had poor emotional control and was also bad at handling things. He could only deal with one thing at a time, so she gave him a little extra trouble when he was already overwhelmed.
Xu Huaiyuan would be like a bomb about to explode.
Jiang Tong has been with him for so many years, and she knows his personality very well.
She couldn't be bothered with this family anymore. No matter how much Peipei begged, she wouldn't let her go back. Sometimes, she really shouldn't be so soft-hearted.
If Peipei still wants to go back after seeing her grandparents' true colors, then this girl is truly hopeless, and Jiang Tong feels that she might also be disappointed.
Just as Jiang Tong was thinking, Zhou Yuansheng returned. As soon as he entered, he saw the three kids sneaking around the door. He immediately went over and gave each of them a light tap on the head. "Eavesdropping is not a good habit."
Zhou Yuansheng scolded him, and Zhou Jiaqi immediately covered his head and moved to the side. He also remembered to pull Hanhan away from his father. His father could be very fierce if he really wanted to discipline someone, and the little brat was very afraid.
Hanhan's eyes were also red, which was very noticeable on her fair and chubby face.
Zhou Yuansheng was taken aback, then looked at Peipei over there. Wow, her face was already swollen from crying. "What happened? Can any of you three explain this?"
Hanhan suddenly looked up at him, holding back her tears, and said in her little voice, "Can Daddy protect us and Mommy? My ex-dad seems to want to take Peipei back, and Mommy will be very sad. Can you make sure Peipei doesn't go back?"
She held back her tears, which then streamed down her face, but she pretended to wipe them away casually.
Compared to Peipei, who cried her eyes out, Hanhan really resembled Jiang Tong in her calmness and forbearance. Zhou Yuansheng truly understood the meaning of "love me, love my dog". However, no one would not feel sorry for a sensible child like Hanhan.
Zhou Yuansheng reached out and wiped away her tears, then said reassuringly, "Don't worry, Daddy can protect you and Peipei, and I will also protect your mommy."
He laughed and said, "Have you forgotten what I said before? I will protect every member of my family; it is my duty."
This is what a father should do, but Xu Huaiyuan is not worthy of being a father. He cannot protect his wife and daughter and instead hurts them repeatedly.
Zhou Yuansheng's gaze also calmed down. He said slowly to the three children, "I'll have your Grandpa He come downstairs to pick you up. Let your mommy rest tonight. I won't cook dinner tonight. Just tell Grandpa He what you want to eat."
He patted each of their heads with his large hand; the three little brats looked listless.
That little brat Zhou Jiaqi is hopeless; he gets flustered over the smallest things.
Zhou Yuansheng recalled that when he was Zhou Jiaqi's age, he was probably already quite mature, definitely not as delicate and fragile as he is now.
He reflected on it and realized that while he was strict, he was also quite indulgent towards him.
Zhou Yuansheng: ……
Being a dad is so tough!
Call Uncle He and have him come over so he can coax the three kids to the big apartment.
Zhou Yuansheng then pushed open the door.
Jiang Tong was sitting in her office chair, lost in thought, and didn't even hear the little noises outside.
It wasn't until Zhou Yuansheng stood behind her, bent down to encircle her in front of him, and rested his head on top of hers, that Jiang Tong suddenly came to her senses. She subconsciously smiled and asked, "You're back? What time is it?"
Jiang Tong glanced at the time and realized it was already four or five in the afternoon. She immediately wanted to start cooking.
Although it was well concealed.
But she still seemed somewhat flustered and at a loss.
Zhou Yuansheng pressed her down into the chair, his steady voice ringing out, "What's the rush? I've asked Uncle He to come and take the children upstairs. It'll be a good opportunity for Hanhan and Peipei to see if they like the new room. Don't bother with dinner, let's go upstairs together. Or is there a restaurant you'd like to go to?"
I don't know why.
Hearing Zhou Yuansheng's words about how well he had arranged everything made her feel inexplicably at ease. In the past, Jiang Tong would have appreciated this, but suddenly she felt a little uneasy. He was too reliable, and she was afraid that she would get used to his reliability.
Xu Huaiyuan's vicious words seemed to echo in her ears again, and Jiang Tong couldn't help but frown.
Suddenly, Zhou Yuansheng said again, "What are you thinking about? Or who are you thinking about?"
Jiang Tong suddenly looked up at him, a hint of unease flashing in her eyes. She wanted to tell him, but she also felt she didn't want to depend on him. The curse of her scumbag ex-husband kept lingering.
She felt really bad.
Just as she was trying to relax and not upset Zhou Yuansheng, she managed to put on a smile when suddenly Zhou Yuansheng picked her up in his arms.
Startled, her mind went completely blank. "Whoa! What are you doing?"
Jiang Tong's heart suddenly started racing.
Zhou Yuansheng said coldly, "I'm angry. You're thinking about other men in front of me? Do you think I have a good temper? You're finished, Jiang Tongtong."
Jiang Tong's face suddenly turned red.
What kind of weird nickname is Jiang Tongtong?!
"Hey, no, what are you doing! Wait, wait, don't do anything rash, mmm, don't kiss me yet."
"Mmm..."
"Ha, don't bite like that, what if... what if the child comes back later? Are you a cat? Your teeth are so sharp..."
With the sound of the lock clicking shut, the bedroom was filled with Jiang Tong screaming in fright. Her voice was soft and delicate, and she fell silent after only a few angry words.
Since she's so caught up in her anxiety that she can't speak properly, we should take the initiative to break through that state of mind.
Zhou Yuansheng felt that this physical act of directly occupying his wife's mind was very effective; at least Jiang Tong, who was dizzy from his kisses, only had eyes for him.
