Han Chen looked at Han Ji in confusion, "Second brother, why do you suddenly ask this?"
Han Ji: "Nothing, just... I'm curious about how you pursued Zhou Mo and how you picked up the relationship after so many years."
Han Chen didn't believe it and continued, "The last time I gossiped with you about how to pursue Zhou Mo, it was Lu Zhishu. He wanted to learn from me how to pursue his girlfriend."
Han Ji looked away, "Really? I was just asking casually."
Han Chen felt that something was wrong with Han Ji. He followed his gaze and wanted to see Han Ji's face, but Han Ji never gave him a chance.
"Second brother, you are lying."
“…”
Han Chen lowered his eyebrows and observed Han Ji, "Do you have someone you really like? Second brother, you are already with Second Sister-in-law, so you can't mess around. You still have Haoxuan, he is still so young..."
Han Ji's face darkened, and he simply stood up and said, "Just stay locked up."
Han Chen: “…”
Han Ji opened the door and walked out, obviously a little angry.
Han Chen didn't understand what went wrong with Han Ji.
Everything was fine when he came, but why did he turn against me when he left?
downstairs.
The family had already finished their meal.
Ai Zhiyin cleaned up the mess and discussed dinner with Mrs. Liu in the kitchen.
She specifically asked Mrs. Liu to prepare an extra home-cooked dish for Han Jue to take away.
Han Jue will leave tonight.
As soon as I walked out of the kitchen, I heard a lively greeting coming from the living room.
It was Han Ji who came downstairs.
When Kan Tong saw Han Ji, she immediately stepped forward enthusiastically and took Han Ji's arm as usual, "Second brother, you finally came down. I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Han Ji pulled his hand away without a trace, walked around her and sat down on the sofa. While pouring himself some tea, he asked, "What are you waiting for me for?"
"About studying for an MBA," Kan Tong said with a smile.
Han Ji was stunned. "I've registered for you. Just go to class after it starts."
Kan Tong came over and sat down next to him.
Han Ji raised his body slightly and moved to the side.
Just this one moment, Ai Zhiyin noticed something was wrong.
Kan Tong had come to see her many times in the past. She could not be described as a regular customer. It would not be an exaggeration to say that she was half a member of the Han family.
Han Ji never seemed to be a stranger and would often joke and tease Kan Tong.
They look like brother and sister.
Ai Zhiyin never felt that there was any problem between the two of them.
But judging from the rejection Han Ji showed towards Kan Tong unintentionally just now, it seemed that something had changed.
Han Jue's mother noticed Ai Zhiyin coming out of the kitchen and teased Han Ji, "Look, look, since Zhiyin is here, you knew to go downstairs."
Even Han Ji's mother said, "You asked your wife to bring the food up, and you asked her to eat with you. You even pretended to be sick. What are you pretending for? Are you trying to trick Zhiyin into feeling sorry for you? Isn't it tiring enough for her to take care of such a big family? You're just causing her trouble."
Han Ji laughed and said, "It's because she always takes care of a large family, which takes up all her energy. Her heart is not with me anymore. I am her husband, so having a meal with her is nothing."
"You," Han Ji's mother was speechless for a moment, "what have you been doing? Zhiyin has been in our house for many years, but you have never been very kind to her. You don't come home when something happens and live outside. People want to be nice to you, but where are you? Now that you know Zhiyin is good?"
Han Ji smiled and said, "I see. It's not too late, is it? She's my wife, how can she run away?"
Han Ji's mother said, "That's not certain. If you continue to be away from home like before, your soulmate might leave you."
Han Ji: "She's already married, and she still has Haoxuan. Where can she go?"
Han Ji's mother was just joking, but she couldn't convince Han Ji that her son was really good at talking.
Seeing this, Han Jue's mother immediately chimed in, saying, "Hui Zhang, it's not okay to tie a woman up with a child these days."
Han Ji: "I didn't mean to tie her up."
As he spoke, he looked at Ai Zhiyin opposite him with great uncertainty.
Ai Zhiyin came over with a smile, "Mom, Fourth Aunt, Fifth Aunt, how does this tea taste?"
Han Ji's mother praised it and said, "Good, it smells very good. Is it osmanthus tea?"
Ai Zhiyin said, "Yes, it's produced in Jianghang, and it's the designated tea for the Asian Games."
Kan Tong said: "It is quite fragrant, but a little broken. You need a special strainer to brew it, which is not as convenient as tea bags."
Ai Zhiyin: "Okay, next time I'll see if this tea is available in tea bags and prepare an extra one."
Han Ji said, "I think this kind of bulk tea is great. When there are many people at home, we can make a pot of tea and drink it together. It will create a better atmosphere, like now."
Han Ji moved half a body to the side and signaled Ai Zhiyin with his eyes to sit next to him.
"Come and sit down, why are you standing?" Liang Xinyun, who was closest to Ai Zhiyin, gently pushed Ai Zhiyin.
Ai Zhiyin blushed for some reason and walked over to sit next to Han Ji.
The seat Han Ji gave up was right between him and Kan Tong. Ai Zhiyin sat down, separating Han Ji and Kan Tong.
"Zhiyin, you should stop pampering him," Han Ji's mother said, "He didn't even come downstairs after dinner. It's only because your grandfather didn't pursue the matter today. Otherwise, I would have been scolded too."
Ai Zhiyin: "Mom, it's okay. Grandpa isn't that unreasonable, he's just a little stubborn. If you talk to him nicely, he'll understand."
Han Jue's mother said, "You are the only one who can talk to your grandfather now. Let alone us daughters-in-law, even your uncles wouldn't listen to anything he says."
Ai Zhiyin smiled and said, "Grandpa listened to Uncle Fifth's words, didn't he? Otherwise, he wouldn't have asked me to prepare a bed for Han Chen."
Liang Xinyun sighed, "That's because your fifth uncle is filial. He only comes home once a year, and every time he comes, he specifically visits your grandfather. Your fifth uncle is away all year round, so you don't get to see him. Your grandfather must miss him."
Han Jue's mother also said, "Yes, your fifth uncle has already stepped in to persuade your grandfather, but I don't know what your grandfather is really thinking. If Han Chen is detained for another day, he will have to go to work the day after tomorrow, which will delay him a lot."
Han Ji said, "Grandpa definitely has his own considerations on this matter. Han Chen's marriage... was indeed too arbitrary, and Grandpa is definitely angry. Han Chen has his own ideas, and Grandpa has his own ideas. We can't say who is right or wrong. We can only find a compromise between the two of them, and both sides should take a step back and discuss it."
Han Jue's mother asked, "How else can we discuss this? We can't let Han Chen get a divorce, or let Han Chen run away from home again, right?"
Han Ji: "Just like the armistice agreement between the two countries, it's a conditional 'reconciliation'. If I'm not mistaken, Grandpa must be thinking about how to give Han Chen and himself an acceptable answer."
Just like what happened to Feng Yang.
Han Hongde finally stood on Han Ji's side, but he did not explicitly agree that Han Ji was right to let Feng Yang end his life on his own, because Han Hongde also knew that Han Ji was indeed too cruel.
But Han Hongde agreed with Han Ji's starting point.
