Chapter 420: Letting the cat out of the bag 2



Zhou Zheng took a piece of garlic and handed it to Han Chen.

Han Chen took it and started peeling it obediently.

"You... are too courageous," Zhou Zheng suddenly spoke. Although he was concentrating on peeling garlic, his tone was very unfriendly.

Han Chen was stunned for a moment and quickly stopped what he was doing. "Uncle Zhou, do you... want to say something?"

"Your mother told us about your relationship with Zhou Mo when you were in school."

"..." Han Chen was completely stunned. He looked up at Zhou Zheng and felt an unprecedented sense of oppression.

"It's okay, I'm just asking."

"..." Han Chen was at a loss for a moment, "Uncle Zhou... I... I was wrong."

This time it was Zhou Zheng who was stunned. Han Chen's nonsensical answer made him feel a little amused and helpless.

"Young man, it's normal for you to want to fall in love. There's nothing wrong with that," Zhou Zheng said. "Your Aunt Liu and I are keeping a close eye on you. It must be hard to hide from Zhou Mo while you're secretly dating. With us keeping such a close eye on you, you and Momo are just playing house at best. You won't be able to cause any trouble."

Han Chen was embarrassed and lowered his head awkwardly. He pretended to nod, but his mind was filled with different thoughts.

When he and Zhou Mo were dating, they didn't really have to hide from each other. They spent most of their time at school, where Zhou Zheng and Liu Xiangru couldn't see them, let alone control them. During their breaks, Zhou Zheng and Liu Xiangru were always busy working overtime and sending Zhou Mo to cram school, but that didn't stop her from skipping classes and going out with him.

As for "not making any waves"...

Han Chen complained in his heart, if he hadn't been so determined and responsible, Zhou Mo's seductive and annoying look...

He didn't dare to think further.

He is afraid of being beaten.

After the two of them peeled the garlic, Han Chen brought a full bowl of garlic to the kitchen.

When he came out, Zhou Zheng had just finished washing his hands and came out of the bathroom. His face suddenly became serious, "Han Chen, come here."

Han Chen had just washed his hands, and they were still wet. He held them up and asked, "What's wrong, Uncle Zhou?"

Zhou Zheng: "Let's go to the study to talk?"

Han Chen nodded without understanding why and took Zhou Zheng to the study.

He had just closed the door and hadn't even turned around when Zhou Zheng's brows darkened and he asked, "Momo has lived here before."

This is an affirmative sentence, not a question.

Han Chen's heart skipped a beat, and then he covered it up and said, "Yes, last time I was drunk, she was here to take care of me."

Zhou Zheng's expression was unpleasant. "More than that, right?"

Han Chen added, "And last time, she came back from the capital and stayed with my mother for a night. She had a video call with you and Aunt Liu, and she reported it."

Zhou Zheng's frown relaxed slightly, "That's all?"

Han Chen smiled bitterly: "That's all. Your family education is so good, how could Momo not be obedient?"

Zhou Zheng still didn't believe it. He stared at Han Chen, trying to read his expression. "What about the cosmetics in the bathroom?"

Han Chen was stunned for a moment. Oh no, he had asked Zhou Mo to pack up her things so that she could stay at his place. Zhou Mo had left some of her makeup items with him.

I guess Zhou Zheng went to the bathroom just now and saw it.

Han Chen continued calmly, "You mean those in the bathroom? Those aren't Momo's, they're my mom's."

Zhou Zheng and Zhou Mo: "Your mother? When did she start wearing makeup?"

Liang Xinyun used to work at the First Hospital of Dongda University. She was very busy and had no time to wear makeup on weekdays. Now that she is older, it is even more impossible for her to do so.

Obviously, Han Chen's words are not very credible.

Han Chen, however, remained calm and said, "It's all Momo's fault. She bought the cosmetics for my mother."

Zhou Zheng frowned: "Really?"

Han Chen: "Don't you understand Momo's personality? She likes to share good things with her elders. When she met my mom before, she even gave her a very beautiful brooch."

Zhou Zheng's brows did not relax, but seeing Han Chen's calmness, his suspicion was no longer as strong as before.

"I'll ask later."

Han Chen didn't expect Zhou Zheng to be so rigorous, and cold sweat gradually seeped out of his forehead.

In order to hide his guilty conscience, he tried his best to remain calm.

"Okay, you can ask me anything when we're having dinner."

"I'll go now," Zhou Zheng looked at Han Chen with a questioning look, opened the door and walked to the kitchen.

Han Chen immediately took out his cell phone from his pocket and sent a message to Zhou Mo: Uncle Zhou found the cosmetics you left in the bathroom.

However, after the message was sent, the phone on the coffee table in the living room vibrated a few times.

Han Chen came out of the study and heard the sound, thinking that something was wrong.

On the coffee table was Zhou Mo's cell phone.

And Zhou Mo is in the kitchen at this moment...

Han Chen walked quickly to the door, trying hard to suppress his guilt and fear, pretending to go to the kitchen to get something, but actually eavesdropping.

When he was getting an empty basin from the kitchen, Zhou Zheng had already asked Zhou Mo, "Whose cosmetics are in the bathroom outside?"

Han Chen had his back to Zhou Zheng at the moment. Zhou Zheng's question made him feel uneasy. He raised his eyes and glanced at Zhou Mo out of the corner of his eye. Zhou Mo was stunned for a moment and obviously didn't react. Zhou Zheng would suddenly ask this question.

"I..." Zhou Mo couldn't answer for a moment.

It was Liang Xinyun who came to the rescue. She smiled and said, "My, what's wrong?"

Zhou Zheng was stunned for a moment, his eyes moving back and forth between Han Chen and Liang Xinyun.

Han Chen touched his nose, breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "See, Uncle Zhou, you think too much."

Zhou Zheng looked at Han Chen suspiciously, always feeling that there was a hint of complacency in that faint smile.

"I don't think that's Momo's thing? The box is so pink and tender."

This time it was Liang Xinyun who was stunned. She didn't expect Zhou Zheng to be so observant.

Zhou Mo quickly replied: "I bought it. I'm not familiar with other brands."

Zhou Zheng was surprised.

The answer was exactly the same as Han Chen's.

If Liang Xinyun and Han Chen's answers were exactly the same, it could be understood that they were connected by heart as mother and son. Even Zhou Mo said the same thing... Although Zhou Zheng had his doubts, he felt that it was unrealistic for the three of them to have colluded in such a short period of time.

So he could only reluctantly believe it.

After all, he still hasn't forgotten what happened last time he posted on Moments.

It is said that women have a sixth sense, and men have it too, and Zhou Zheng feels that his sixth sense is particularly accurate.

It’s just that there is no evidence, or even if there is evidence, it will be overturned by the three people in front of me.

"Momo," Zhou Zheng suddenly spoke.

"Um...ah?" Zhou Mo's uneasy heart had not yet calmed down, and Zhou Zheng suddenly called her, and she suddenly became a little flustered.

"Go buy some drinks," Zhou Zheng added, "neither your Aunt Liang nor I can drink."

"Oh, I'll go right away," Zhou Mo washed his hands hurriedly, and walked out of the kitchen in a panic.

"I'll go with you," Han Chen hurriedly followed.

The two entered the elevator together, breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at each other.

"Did my dad find out?"

"Yes," Han Chen said, "He just asked me to go to the study and asked me where those cosmetics came from."

"Ah?" Zhou Mo was shocked. She was afraid of being exposed. "What did you say?"
