Chapter 47 He went to stay in the study.
Lin Yi'an sat to the side watching the farce between the mother and son, which was more exciting than a TV series.
Assistant Chen followed the two into the house, pushing his suitcase. He naturally saw this scene and his eyes lit up slightly.
Zhou Mingshi's face was expressionless as he took out his phone and dialed Zhou Kanghui's number.
Zhou Kanghui had a few drinks and was currently lounging on the sofa playing video games, tipsy. When he received the call, he slurred, "Mingshi, why are you calling Dad so late?"
After saying that, he chuckled and teased him, "Missing Dad?"
"..." Zhou Mingshi's forehead veins throbbed as he suppressed his temper and said, "Come to the old house and take your wife and son away."
Zhou Kanghui: "The game has just started, let's finish this round."
Zhou Mingshi: "I'll give you ten minutes. If I don't see you in ten minutes, someone will come and dismantle your wine cabinet tomorrow."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Kanghui was no longer in the mood to care about the game.
Others might just be trying to scare him, but if his second son said that, he would definitely mean it. If he was even a minute late, his wine cabinet would be in trouble.
This son might be lenient with others, but he could be absolutely ruthless with his father.
He understands this all too well.
"Coming, coming right away."
She tossed her phone aside, slipped on her slippers, and ran out, muttering to herself as she ran, "Those two troublemakers, what did they do to provoke Mingshi this time? All they do is cause me trouble. I don't have to do anything all day but clean up their messes..."
When he arrived at the old house, panting, he saw the mother and son arguing and pulling at each other.
He shouted, "What are you all arguing about so late at night? Don't you let people get any rest?"
Sun Yurong turned around, saw it was him, suppressed her surging anger, and patiently said, "Didn't I tell you at dinner? That He Xishan is pregnant, Mingyuan wants to marry her, I disagreed, and your son, your good son, said he's going to get a tubal ligation, so I'll never be a grandmother in this lifetime..."
She grew angrier and angrier as she spoke, eventually gritting her teeth, showing how deeply she was hurt by her son.
Zhou Kanghui said impatiently, "Didn't I say at the time? Since the girl is pregnant, we should get married. What's the big deal?"
Zhou Mingyuan felt he had found a helper: "My mom disagreed and even made a scene at my grandparents' place... saying that since you don't care about me, you should let my grandparents take care of me."
Zhou Kanghui rolled his eyes at him: "You're stupid too. Your mother didn't agree, so you secretly got a marriage certificate with that girl?"
He not only thought his youngest son was stupid, but also thought Sun Yurong was stupid. He thought that if his son didn't care about these things, his parents would.
Can talking to his parents solve the problem?
Zhou Mingyuan let out a sound.
Upon hearing his words, Sun Yurong felt dizzy and grabbed his arm, saying, "Kang Hui, what nonsense are you talking about? How can you teach your son like that?"
Zhou Kanghui was still under the influence of alcohol, his head spinning. He yanked her hand away and looked at his youngest son, saying, "Back then, when I talked to you about your aunt's divorce and then got a marriage certificate with your mother, it was all done behind your grandparents' back..."
"Zhou Kanghui!"
Sun Yurong couldn't help but cry out again.
Zhou Kanghui rubbed his ears uncomfortably: "Keep your voice down."
Then he looked at Zhou Mingyuan and said, "But your grandparents mainly resent my divorce from your Aunt Tan... Your mother is still pregnant with you, and since we've already registered our marriage, she has no choice but to accept it."
After saying that, he laughed smugly: "You're my son, how come you didn't inherit any of my intelligence?"
Zhou Mingyuan was in no mood to laugh; he only felt his face burning. When he was a child, he overheard people whispering behind his back that his mother was a mistress who drove Tan Qingwen away. He didn't believe it and even scolded the person who told him to leave.
He went to ask his mother again, and she said no, adding that she and his father were truly in love and that they got together after his father divorced Aunt Tan. He naturally believed his mother, and after that, whenever anyone said the same thing, he vehemently refuted them. He never heard such things again, and he assumed that he had convinced those people...
I never expected... I never expected it to be true...
Sun Yurong looked at her son's incredulous eyes, but she didn't think she was wrong. If she hadn't tried to marry into the Zhou family back then, what would have become of Zhou Mingyuan?
Even if Zhou Kanghui hadn't drunk any alcohol, he would never hold back in his words and actions. He would just talk without caring about the well-being of those listening.
After finishing speaking, he noticed that his youngest son was staring blankly, but he didn't pay any attention to him. His mind was only on his wine cabinet. He thought about taking them with him, but his unfilial second son had already ordered his wine cabinet to be dismantled. He didn't dare to delay and grabbed the arms of the mother and son, and started walking out.
After they left, the house became quiet.
Zhou Qisheng and Yu Minhua inquired about the health of Grandma Lin and Liu Zhengying, and upon learning that they were alright, they went back to their rooms to sleep.
It was already past nine o'clock. Lin Yi'an and Zhou Mingshi each drank a bowl of chicken porridge and then put down their chopsticks.
After dinner, Zhou Mingshi led Lin Yi'an into their future marital home, which was his original room, but it had been renovated and was no longer recognizable.
Zhou Mingshi: "You'll stay here tonight."
Lin Yi'an hesitated: "This is our wedding room, is it okay for us to move in now?"
Zhou Mingshi said, "This is our room. It's fine for us to move in whenever we want."
Lin Yi paused, then looked up and asked, "And what about you?"
Zhou Mingshi lowered his eyes to meet her gaze: "What do you think?"
Lin Yi'an pushed him out: "I think this is your home, you will definitely be able to find a room to settle in."
Zhou Mingshi chuckled, not taking it to heart: "Okay, I'll go find a place to settle myself in. You should get some rest."
After saying that, she added, "I've prepared some clothes for you in the closet. Just tell me if you need anything."
Lin Yi'an: "Mm."
Zhou Mingshi: "I live in the study next door. Call me if you need anything."
Lin Yi'an nodded.
Zhou Mingshi said gently, "I'm going to rest. Goodnight!"
After saying that, he leaned down and kissed her cheek.
Lin Yi'an: "Good night!"
Closing the door, Lin Yi'an looked around the room. It was large, with an oversized bed in the sleeping area. She reached out and touched the material, unable to immediately identify what kind of wood it was; it had a faint, pleasant fragrance...
She went into the walk-in closet, opened the wardrobe; the right side was full of women's clothing, then she opened the left side, which contained a lot of men's clothing...
Without a doubt, it was prepared for the two of them.
She found a change of clothes and went to the bathroom, which was quite spacious and had a bathtub. It was getting late, so Lin Yi'an didn't plan to take a bath.
After I finished showering and sat down on the bed, my older sister, Lin Manqing, called me on video.
She leaned against the hotel window with a smile: "Didn't you say you were going back to the capital this afternoon? Are you home yet?"
After saying that, she frowned when she noticed the background in the video was wrong: "No, this isn't my home, nor is it Lanting Yazhu..."
She realized, "Zhou Mingshi took you back to his house?"
Lin Yi'an smiled and said, "Yes, this is the wedding room in the Zhou family's old house."
Lin Manqing snorted, "He certainly doesn't miss any opportunity."
Lin Yi-an said, "He went to stay in the study."
Lin Manqing: "What I mean is that he took the opportunity to bring you home."
The thought of her soft, cuddly little sister being snatched away made her feel terrible.
Lin Yi'an: "......"
Lin Manqing then asked, "Are we getting the marriage certificate on Tuesday?"
Lin Yi'an: "Mm."
"I couldn't come back that day." Lin Manqing said regretfully. She was busy with work at the end of the year, and she wasn't in the capital. Her sister was getting her marriage certificate, so she couldn't come back either.
Lin Yi'an: "No need to come back. After getting the certificate, I will go back to Changping. Grandma's feet still can't walk, so I can only take her pulse and prescribe medicine. The clinic can't be left unattended, and there are still patients waiting."
Lin Manqing: "While taking care of Grandma Lin, don't forget to take care of yourself. If the clinic is too busy, we can hire another doctor."
Lin Yi'an: "If you haven't met the right person, sister, please take good care of yourself while you're away on business and eat on time."
Lin Manqing retorted without holding back: "I'm not like Zhou Mingshi. I'm not that delicate. As long as the food is clean and hygienic, I'll eat it. I won't let myself go hungry, and I won't catch a cold after a business trip."
Lin Yi'an found it amusing; it seemed that Zhou Mingshi's family already knew he liked to catch colds after returning from business trips.
She said, "He prefers light flavors and is picky about ingredients; the food outside doesn't suit his taste."
Lin Manqing: "That's why he's called the eldest young master."
Lin Yi'an thought for a moment and said, "Everyone has different lifestyle habits, it's alright."
Lin Manqing smiled and said, "It seems you two get along well; you even know how to speak up for him now?"
Lin Yi-an said, "I would say the same thing to others."
Lin Manqing laughed.
