Chapter 78 Three Children in Five Years
Liang Jishen picked up the remote control and turned on the TV without responding.
The TV was broadcasting financial news, and the male anchor was reading the script in a clear voice. He usually didn't watch movies or variety shows, but only watched four channels regularly: Hebei Provincial TV, Hebei Provincial Finance, CCTV-1 and Animal World.
He Sang once asked him why he watched Animal World?
He replied that he liked the primitive conquest and fighting.
There is a wild wolf hidden deep in Liang Jishen's bones, just like his strong and heroic appearance.
"Miss Song wants to see you, so you should hurry back."
The wound on He Sang's heel became tighter and more painful, like a needle pricking him.
When the man carried her back to the living room, he pulled the curtains, blocking the sunlight. The light in the room was dim, and he was hidden in the darkness, his face looked vague and unreal.
"After meeting Miss Song, are you going back to Zhonghai directly?" Her breathing was disordered and her voice was broken. "Are you coming back?"
"Go back to Zhonghai."
He Sang pursed his lips and clenched the sofa cover. The more he clenched, the deeper his nails dug into the sofa.
In fact, Liang Jishen has been with her for a long time, four days. He is very busy now, and he doesn't know how much official business he has to delay in these four days. He has to work overtime day and night to make up for it.
She was being too demanding and unrealistic.
He Sang took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, "I'm going upstairs to rest."
She passed by Liang Jishen without stopping, peeled off one side of her skirt, and her nightgown fell to her waist, perfectly fitting in one hand.
The operation made her thinner.
The man stared at her back. Her foot had not yet healed, and she walked slowly and lightly, carefully taking the stairs while holding onto them. He walked over, but did not offer his hand. He just stood at the corner of the escalator to protect her.
It was not until He Sang went upstairs that Liang Jishen turned off the TV, took off his clothes and went out.
He drove to a teahouse and walked to the door of a private room on the second floor. He pushed the door open and saw the two people sitting there. Just as he was about to greet them, the other person spoke first, "Deputy Secretary Liang, I got a call from Zhonghai. I'm here to invite you personally. Would you do me the honor?"
"Father, what do you mean by this?" Liang Jishen hung his thin black jacket on the hanger. "I can't afford it."
He looked at Ji Xilan beside him and said teasingly, "You look rosy, there must be good news."
"Thanks to you, there will be many happy events in the Liang family. I'm going to be a grandmother, right?"
Liang Jishen loosened his belt buckle and sat down opposite him in the most comfortable position. "Do you want to hold your grandson?"
"I want to hug you." Ji Xilan sneered, "That playboy Zhou Kun is already married, how can your father and I not be anxious?"
"I'll make it happen for you." He said half-seriously, with a carefree smile. "In five years, I'll have three grandchildren: two sons and a daughter. My grandchild will look just like me, spitting the same spit of daggers at me. How do you think that is?"
"Okay." Ji Xilan was like an ice cellar. Even though they were a meter apart, her aura was chilling. "When are you giving birth?"
"I'll do a checkup as soon as possible, by the end of the year, and let you know whether it's a grandson or a granddaughter."
"Liang Jishen!" Ji Xilan could no longer bear it. "You can't dream of marrying someone because they have a child and their status is determined by their child in the Liang family! If any shady woman out there dares to play tricks on me, I have plenty of ways to make her disappear. If you don't believe me, just try it."
The man brushed off his trousers and rested his calves on the edge of the table. He was neither happy nor angry, and was extremely calm.
Ji Xilan played the bad cop, while Liang Yanzhang played the bad cop. "You promised at home that you wouldn't lose your temper, so I agreed to let you come with me. Look at the fuss you're making now! The third brother manages Zhonghai and is the second-in-command of the group. He has a higher status than me in the province, so I have to respect him. How can you scold him?"
Liang Jishen raised his eyebrows and said, "You don't have to provoke me with words. I've become such a mess, it's only right that you teach me a lesson."
Liang Yanzhang's provocation was indeed effective, and his expression softened a bit. "Since you have such a heart, let me ask you, will you return to Zhonghai?"
"Go back.
Liang Yanzhang asked again, "Are you going back alone, or are you bringing a woman with you?"
"It depends on which woman you ask."
"Song."
He drank some tea to moisten his throat and said, "I haven't decided yet whether to take her with me."
"Where's He Sang?"
Liang Jishen was most disgusted by the mention of He Sang, and his tone became much stiffer. "She was transferred to a theater in another province. Wasn't it you who ordered my second brother to do that? Why are you asking about me?"
"I didn't tell Chi Hui to do that." Liang Yanzhang was well prepared and calm. "He and Dean Huang are friends. The theater is short of actresses, and he has a wide network of contacts, so he's just helping out."
"What a coincidence! Out of more than 60 actresses, she was chosen."
He was smiling, but the smile was not in his eyes, and it was just on the surface, looking sinister.
Liang Yanzhang ignored her and said, "You go back to Hebei Province to work first. Your mother and I will stay in another province for a few days, visit some scenic spots, and treat it as a vacation. I heard that the ballet at the Provincial Opera House is pretty good."
Liang Jishen's face remained expressionless, his eyes full of coldness.
opera.
I'm afraid the drunkard's real intention is not to drink.
I went to the theatre.
"The Liang Group needs you to take charge."
"Zhonghai also needs you, are you in charge?"
"Then I'll go back with you after I've settled this place." He stood up. "As for visiting the scenic spots, maybe wait until you retire and have more time."
Liang Yanzhang's face also turned gloomy.
"What are you settling?" Ji Xilan was annoyed again, "You left Hebei Province on the 2nd, and today is the 7th. You haven't settled in a week?"
Liang Jishen poured her a cup of tea slowly and unhurriedly. "Do you know Mr. and Mrs. Qiu?"
Ji Xilan naturally recognized him; she had played cards with Mrs. Qiu before. The circle of wealthy women was divided into three categories. The first category was from Beijing, where their husbands' families were powerful and wealthy. The second category was from Shanghai and Guangdong, where some wealthy businessmen traveled between Hong Kong and Macau, involved in both black and white affairs, and possessed both influence and wealth. The third category was the purely wealthy: internet celebrities, company bosses, and private enterprise CEOs. At the wives' gatherings, they would help out, flatter, and adjust the atmosphere. The resources that the second-class wives didn't want were more than enough to feed them.
Mrs. Qiu is of the third rank, and Ji Xilan belongs to the first rank, but she is not the core figure. The original wife of the Zhou family is the core. The higher the circle, the more feudal the tradition within the family, and they pay attention to the seniority of the legitimate and illegitimate children. The original wife always has superiority over the second wife, and the second wife always has superiority over the concubine. If Liang Yanzhang's first wife Weng Qiong were alive, she and Mrs. Zhou would be the core figures.
Ji Xilan had a very good impression of Mrs. Qiu. She was sweet-talking, good at flattering, and low-key, and could coax people into their hearts.
"I'm here to discuss cooperation with Mr. Qiu, not for personal reasons. You can ask him for confirmation." Liang Jishen was calm, as if he had been wronged.
"Really?" Ji Xilan raised his voice, "Old Zheng——"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Liang family's driver came in and stood at the door in an orderly manner.
"The Third Young Master has a bad memory. He has forgotten his whereabouts. Please remind him."
Old Zheng lowered his head. "The Third Young Master will take Miss He horseback riding at the Western Suburbs Horse Farm at noon on the 3rd. Miss Song will undergo surgery at the Orthopedic Hospital in the afternoon. She will also be monitored at the hospital on the 4th. She will spend the night at the Lishui Mansion on the 5th and move to an apartment downtown on the 6th."
Ji Xilan examined Liang Jishen's reaction, his brows and eyes were extremely sinister.
Once he came into contact with that vixen Song He, he felt bitter and resentful.
I can’t take care of my biological mother or the Liang family anymore.
"What do you want to say?"
Liang Jishen adjusted his collar and cufflinks. "Nothing to say."
"Song took her mother to live with her in Nanhai Bay. You worked tirelessly to support her family. When you came to another province, I thought you couldn't bear to leave He Sang. It turns out I underestimated Song. When she came after you, she played this trick of self-torture, which made you feel distressed again. Then you abandoned He Sang in the western suburbs during a thunderstorm."
Liang Yanzhang was confused. "What kind of self-torture trick is this?"
Ji Xilan gritted her teeth. "The stables have a professional horse trainer. They train horses to be very docile. There's no way they'd throw anyone! Mr. Song could fool you, but not me?" She turned her head and said, "Yan Zhang, Mr. Song broke his leg while riding a horse, and he's blaming the third brother."
Liang Yanzhang frowned, "What a scheming woman."
"Third brother, if she becomes disabled, will you support her for the rest of her life? The future daughter-in-law of the Liang family must be a lady from a prominent family." Ji Xilan gave an ultimatum, "Don't force me to do it."
Liang Jishen held the teacup in his hand without saying a word. With a fierce squeeze, he squeezed hard, and a fine crack appeared on the cup. He dropped it heavily on the table, and the already fragile ceramic cup suddenly broke into four pieces.
Ji Xilan was stunned.
Liang Jishen glanced at her calmly and said, "You have a deep misunderstanding of Xiao He. If you must take action, come at me."
