In that instant when their eyes met, Tang Li almost thought he remembered.
However, after a few seconds of being serious...
Sheng Chaosheng laughed heartily:
"You're saying I'm Huo's biological father? Hahaha, daughter, this is the funniest joke I've ever heard in my life."
Sigh!
I thought there would be a breakthrough.
Tang Li was somewhat disappointed, while Sheng Chaosheng was still savoring the moment:
"Don't even mention that I can't have a son this big. Even if I could, if I had a son like him, such a heartless and ungrateful brat, I would strangle him. Only a heartless and ungrateful person like Huo Laobie could tolerate him and treat that kid like a treasure."
Tang Li was ashamed:
"Uncle, he's already thirty years old. Wouldn't it be a bad idea to strangle him?"
Sheng Chaosheng said with absolute certainty:
"Therefore, he could never be my son, Sheng Chaosheng's son!"
That's such an absolute statement!
Tang Li smiled and advised him:
"Uncle, anything is possible. Huo Chenyu isn't that bad, is he? Looking at Tanzhou, he is one of the best young talents. Few can match him in terms of both appearance and talent."
Tang Li praised him to the skies.
Sheng Chaosheng crushed him with a single sentence:
"But this kid has no character."
Regarding this matter, Tang Li had to explain for Huo Chenyu:
"Uncle, we were both wrong in this relationship. Besides, he was doing it for my own good, and I appreciate it."
Sheng Chaosheng sighed:
"It seems my Zhixing has no chance. Look at you, you've been saying nice things about him all night."
Tang Li nodded:
"He's good, he's really good."
Sheng Chaosheng echoed:
"Uncle knows that this boy is deeply in love with you, but compared to my Zhixing, he is still a little lacking. There's nothing I can do about it, since he's not my son, Sheng Chaosheng's son."
No, no, no.
He is!
That's him!
Tang Li almost blurted it out, but Ling Yun's words were still echoing in her ears. In order not to provoke Sheng Chaosheng, she could only proceed step by step and slowly penetrate him.
"Uncle, to be honest, if you really had a son like Huo Chenyu, would you be happy?"
Tang Li was still unwilling to give up and continued to test him.
This time, Sheng Chaosheng didn't react so strongly. Instead, he held his wine glass and pondered for a long time, as if he had finally figured it out before speaking:
"Happy, of course I'm happy. Apart from having a father named Huo Yishen, this child is excellent in every other way. He's good-looking and capable. Although he used the wrong methods on you, he's still wholeheartedly devoted to you. There's nothing to criticize about this child."
Is this the truth?
Tang Li instantly became excited:
"So Uncle really wants a son like that, right? After all, one such outstanding son is enough, but one more won't make a difference."
Fourth Brother is naturally an outstanding person, the best of the best.
But Huo Chenyu being his son would only bring him honor, not tarnish his reputation.
Tang Li was immersed in the joy of the father and son's impending journey together, when she saw Sheng Chaosheng point at her:
"You, you, your uncle knows everything. You and him are getting married soon. That old man Huo, who can't keep things to himself, has already bragged about it to me. You know your uncle treats you like a daughter, and you're afraid your uncle won't accept him as a son-in-law, right?"
etc.
This doesn't sound quite right.
Tang Li's smile visibly vanished, but Sheng Chaosheng was still speaking:
"Don't worry, I'll accept anyone you like. After all, a son-in-law is like half a son. Let's see how he goes. If he's useful, we'll keep him; if not, we'll kick him out."
Tang Li finally understood:
"So Uncle is happy because I like him? Not because Uncle also thinks he's a good person?"
Sheng Chaosheng's expression changed instantly:
"He's a good bastard!"
This... this...
Tang Li suddenly plummeted to the bottom.
“His father’s name is Huo Yishen. How good do you think he is? If it weren’t for him, you would be my daughter-in-law now. I get angry just thinking about him. How could I possibly like him?”
Tang Li sighed deeply in his heart.
Uncle, if it weren't for him, I really wouldn't be your Sheng family's daughter-in-law.
Seeing that the conversation was running out of steam, Tang Li had no choice but to give up.
After all, the current situation is that the son wants to be filial, but the father is not kind.
After finishing her late-night snack, Tang Li tidied up the ward, opened the windows to air it out, and then went to Ling Li's office to find him.
Ling Li was not surprised to see her.
"It's already very late. Staying up late is bad for a girl's health."
He hunched over his desk, working with remarkable speed, without even looking up.
Tang Li, leaning on the desk, asked:
"Uncle Sheng, with your health, can you still drink alcohol and eat barbecue?"
Ling Li finally raised his head:
"It's not like we eat this every day. What's wrong with indulging once in a while? A thousand pieces of gold can't buy his happiness tonight."
That's true.
only...
"I just didn't expect that Dr. Ling would actually help a patient lie."
lie?
A sharp smile played on his lips.
"Miss Tang, am I really that bad in your eyes?"
"Isn't that right?" Tang Li retorted.
After all, he said Uncle Sheng had fainted, but when she arrived, she found that the old man could eat, drink, and fight, and seemed to be perfectly healthy.
Ling Li adjusted his glasses:
“He did faint before you arrived. My father must have told you that his health is deteriorating and that you don’t have much time left. However, the first thing he did after waking up was to ask me to order him a table full of late-night snacks.”
wrong.
The table was full of her favorite foods.
Tang Li was puzzled:
