The moment the door opened.
Zhou Mo and Han Chen, who opened the door, looked at each other.
The two of them felt indescribably uncomfortable.
"Come on," Han Chen moved aside to let Zhou Mo in.
"Yeah," Zhou Mo stepped into the room.
In the living room, two strange yet similar men looked at her at the same time.
One of them was standing and the other was sitting.
Zhou Mo stepped forward and politely greeted Han Zhen, "Hello, uncle." At the same time, he deliberately ignored Han Hongde.
Although she had married Han Chen and obtained a marriage certificate, Han Zhen did not attend their wedding. It was also Zhou Mo's first time meeting Han Zhen, and she really couldn't say the word "Dad".
And...she has no father now...
This word also became a "taboo" in her heart.
Han Zhen didn't mind and greeted Zhou Mo warmly, "Come and sit down."
Zhou Mo curled his lips and smiled, showing politeness, and sat down on the single sofa properly.
Han Chen stood next to her, probably wanting to sit with her, but unexpectedly Zhou Mo had no intention of moving in and sat on the single sofa, leaving him aside.
Han Zhen noticed something was going on and called out to Han Chen, "Han Chen, come here and sit here with me. We haven't seen each other for a long time and haven't had a good chat yet."
"Okay," Han Chen glanced at Zhou Mo secretly and walked to Han Zhen.
Several people sat down.
Han Zhen gently adjusted his glasses before daring to look at Zhou Mo carefully.
Zhou Mo looked up and noticed his gaze.
She did not feel embarrassed or avoid looking at me, but instead always had a generous smile on her face.
But only Zhou Mo knew how fake this smile was.
She obviously couldn't smile at all.
The way Han Zhen looked at her was a bit like Han Qi's, as they both wore glasses.
The difference is that Han Qi's glasses are round square with brown lenses, while Han Zhen's are mostly bachelor's glasses, which are ordinary rectangular frameless glasses with lenses that are not particularly thick.
Han Zhen is younger than Han Qi. Both of them are over 55 years old, and Han Zhen looks older than Han Qi.
Han Zhen's hair was very short, with a lot of white hair mixed in with his black hair, so he looked old.
"Momo..." Han Zhen said apologetically, "Please allow me to call you that too. Han Chen said that's what they all call you."
Zhou Mo nodded slightly, "Okay."
Han Zhen said seriously, "Regarding your father's matter... I'm sorry. It's our family's fault for not raising our son well and not taking good care of Han Ze. And..."
He looked at Han Hongde with embarrassment, "I also want to apologize to you on behalf of my father. I'm sure your family has told you about what happened in Yushan today. I'm very sorry, this was planned by our family."
Han Zhen suddenly stood up and bowed deeply to Zhou Mo.
His actions scared everyone present, especially Han Hongde.
Han Hongde was looking at him with surprise and disbelief at this moment.
Zhou Mo was terrified. After all, Han Zhen was the elder, so how could an elder bow and apologize to a junior like her?
They both hurriedly stood up to help Han Zhen.
"Uncle, you don't have to do this."
Han Zhen said seriously: "No, if you do something wrong, you must apologize. This is the basic rule of being a human being."
Zhou Mo bit her lip slightly and glanced at Han Hongde secretly. His eyes were still as arrogant as before.
The difference is that with Han Zhen present, Han Hongde remained silent and secretly sulked.
It seems that Han Zhen's presence has a certain "deterrent" effect on Han Hongde.
Han Zhen looked at Han Hongde, "Dad, please say something."
Han Hongde lost his temper. "What do you want me to say? Apologize? Impossible! Why should I apologize to a little girl like her? She's the one who refuses to let it go. Your third brother and I have given her chances and offered her compensation, but she won't accept it. What do you want me to do?"
Han Zhen: "If she doesn't accept it, will you try your best to embarrass her?"
Han Hongde: "What else? Wait for her to expose Han Ze's affairs, and then the whole family will be buried together?"
Han Zhen was annoyed. "Why are you still so stubborn? Han Ze is wrong, and it's useless for you and my third brother to protect him. It may even backfire!"
Han Hongde: "I don't care. I am the head of the family. The head of the family never considers the personal gains and losses of a certain person in the Han family, but the entire Han family. I will not allow the Han family to be ruined in my hands. After so many years of painstaking efforts, the Han family has finally reached its current state. I will not allow anything to happen to the Han family, absolutely not!"
Han Zhen was heartbroken and helpless when he saw that his words were not working. "Dad, why are you so stubborn?"
Han Hongde: "When you asked me to speak, I told you that there is nothing to discuss between her and me. The daughter-in-law you and Liang Xinyun like is not as kind as you seem. She even cursed Han Ze with a wreath. Women are the most vicious."
Han Zhen was anxious and angry, "Dad! How can you say that?"
Zhou Mo clenched his fists and remained silent.
She had thought of this situation when she came.
If Han Zhen could persuade Han Hongde with just a few words, then Han Hongde would not be Han Hongde.
Zhou Mo looked at Han Hongde, still neither humble nor arrogant. "Mr. Han, if you find me holding a wreath offensive, then how do you account for me being taken to the police station, threatened by the school, and having a disturbance at my uncle's farm today? This is no longer just an offense, is it?"
Han Hongde was furious. "You! You are indeed the one Liang Xinyun has her eyes on. Your temper and personality are just like hers. You don't know how to respect others at all."
Han Zhen had a headache. "Dad, can we just stick to the facts? What does this have to do with Xin Yun?"
Han Hongde glared at him: "You don't want to have children with her, but you still protect her everywhere. Han Zhen, what are you thinking, huh?"
Han Zhen: "Regardless of my relationship with Xin Yun, Han Chen is already grown up. He is my son, and Xin Yun is my legal wife. As a father and a husband, I have a responsibility to speak up for them. I thought the conflict between you and them was just a simple family quarrel, and I have been mediating it. But for so many years, you have never let go of your prejudice against Xin Yun, and now you have transferred it to Momo. When will you be able to look at someone rationally and objectively?"
Han Hongde: "I don't need to be rational and objective, I just need to be united with the Han family. It's obvious that you, your family, and the Han family have never been of the same mind."
Han Zhen: "Why aren't we on the same page with the Han family? Han Chen doesn't respect his elders? Or doesn't he treat his brothers as brothers? He just married the girl he likes, so why are you so malicious about his marriage? Han Ze got into trouble, but instead of solving the problem and comforting the victim's family, you shielded him and turned against Momo's family. Dad, you must have a conscience. Without a bottom line, you can't keep the Han family you want."
Han Zhen said something that Han Chen had known all along.
He and Han Chi both fled the imperial capital, largely because they saw that the Han family had crossed the bottom line and was in danger.
