Chapter 288 Prey



Hu Lin rarely called him that.

It can be said that I have never called him that.

"Let's go to your house for dinner tonight?"

"Okay. I'll go back and accompany grandpa and grandma later." She looked like a good daughter-in-law.

“Go ahead, spend more time with them while you have time, your mom and I are busy.

Huai En is studying, Huai Min doesn't come home often, and your grandparents are bored at home every day."

Zhou Honggan said, "I will talk to Huaimin later and ask him to come home for dinner tonight. You two haven't seen each other for many years.

I think this kid will get into aviation materials sooner or later."

Later on, he started complaining again.

"He must be very happy to be able to do what he likes."

Hu Lin listened to Zhou Honggan's complaints and made excuses for Zhou Huaimin.

After all, she had contributed a lot to Zhou Huaimin's transformation, so naturally she felt a little guilty.

"Just spoil him." Zhou Honggan shook his head.

At this time, Zhou Honggan's deputy knocked on the door and asked to come in, so she left and went to Zhou's house.

When I arrived at Zhou's house, I didn't see the old couple. I heard from the servant that they had gone out to play mahjong with others.

This is how the old couple lived when they were not at home.

The old couple went to one house today and that house tomorrow, playing cards at different houses of their partners.

Hu Lin asked the servant for the address and went to the compound to look for someone.

In the evening, Hu Lin took the old couple back home.

On the way, the old couple asked her to keep it a secret between her and Zhou Hong. Hu Lin saw that it was their pleasure and agreed with a smile.

The old couple looked like some naughty old men.

It is true that the older people get, the more they behave like children.

In the evening, everyone in the family arrived except Zhou Huaijing.

She hadn't seen Zhou Huaimin for many years, and when she saw him, she was a little hesitant to recognize him.

Zhou Huaimin has lost a lot of weight.

Because he stayed in the laboratory for many years, his face was a sickly pale color, and there was blue-gray accumulated under his eyelids.

Looking at his expression, it’s no wonder Zhou Honggan said that.

Zhou Honggan called the servant in the afternoon and asked them to prepare a tonic soup. At this time, Xu Mingzhu served a bowl to Zhou Huaimin and placed it in front of him.

He said with a distressed look: "Look at you, you've become so thin.

If you continue like this, not only will your research progress not improve, but you will be the first to collapse."

"It's not that serious." Zhou Huaimin spoke with a weak voice.

"Mom is right, the body is the capital of revolution." Hu Lin said.

Zhou Huai'en muttered to himself, "I've said this eight hundred times. If he can listen to me, even a sow can climb a tree."

Hu Lin understood and raised his eyebrows.

After dinner, Hu Lin met Zhou Huaimin alone.

I only said one sentence to him.

"Eat well, or your scientific research career will come to an end."

After saying that, she patted Zhou Huaimin on the shoulder and went back to Qinyuan.

He understood what his sister-in-law meant.

It was thanks to his sister-in-law's advice that he was able to do what he liked.

But now he ignores his health for the sake of his career, so his sister-in-law is angry.

If he didn't obey, his sister-in-law would do as she said and cut off his scientific research career.

He knew that his sister-in-law kept her word.

There was still one day left, so Hu Lin bought some gifts and went with Li Aihua to visit the elderly couple from the Xu family. They hadn't seen each other for a long time.

As time passed, wrinkles accumulated on the old couple's faces like tree bark.

When she smiles, it looks like a circle of growth rings.

They are also approaching their 80s.

After staying at Xu's house for a day and then returning to Qinyuan for another day, it was the day that Zhou Honggan had booked for her to fly to Gangcheng.

Hu Lin took out the contract he had signed with Shi Ye, and a hunter's smile appeared on his lips.

It’s time to close the net!

Next, let him see what real thieves eating thieves looks like.

The flight is at 10 am, with a transfer in Yangcheng, and arrives in Hong Kong at 2 pm.

Hu Lin looked at his watch, picked up his suitcase and was about to leave the airport to take a taxi.

A child was walking quickly with a cup of herbal tea in her hand. Her mother was jogging after her, shouting, "Slow down, be careful not to bump into people." The child looked back at her mother.

Thinking he was playing a game with her, she started running, but at that moment she didn't look at the road and bumped into Hu Lin.

The cold tea spilled on her pants.

The child stood there in a daze, looking at the tea stains on Hu Lin's trouser legs, then at the plastic bag that fell to the ground, and burst into tears.

Hu Lin stood there, looking at the crying child, speechless.

Obviously, she is the one who was wronged.

Why is this kid still committing fraud?

The child's mother quickly ran over to apologize, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

The child's mother took out a tissue and gave it to Hu Lin. Hu Lin took it and said helplessly, "Watch the child."

She's not that generous.

The child's mother was slightly stunned and said "eh", then she reacted and said, "I'll buy you a cup of herbal tea."

Hu Lin, who was wiping her pants, looked serious and looked at the child's mother.

There was some apology and a slight hope in the child's mother's eyes.

As Hu Lin stared at her for longer, the smile on her face gradually stiffened.

"Okay." Hu Lin agreed and crumpled the paper in his palm.

The child's mother smiled even more and took Hu Lin to the herbal tea stall.

Passing by a trash can, Hu Lin threw the paper ball in his hand into the trash can.

Arriving at the herbal tea stand, the child’s mother asked Hu Lin, “What kind of tea would you like to drink?”

The herbal tea stall sells five-flower tea, silver chrysanthemum dew, twenty-four flavors, and summer cypress tea.

It is now mid-May, the port city is getting hot, and herbal tea stalls are beginning to become popular.
