Chapter 6 Hello Mr. Zhou
The posture of the person in his arms made Zhou Zimo's heart throb, and he couldn't help but whispered: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Upon hearing this, Xu Ge just lowered his head even more.
Zhou Zimo gritted his teeth and looked up at Old Man Zhou sitting on the sofa.
"Grandpa, this is what happened. Ge'er was drunk last night and walked into the wrong box. We met by chance. I was really just worried about her safety so I brought her home. I slept in the living room last night. We didn't do anything wrong. It was Mom who misunderstood."
When Chen Ru heard this, she wanted to refute it, but Mr. Zhou said in a hoarse voice.
"It's just a misunderstanding."
Chen Ru clenched her fists and stared at the two people hugging each other, her face turning blue with anger.
"Dad, look at them, how could this be..."
Old Master Zhou frowned, looked at his daughter-in-law impatiently, and his face darkened.
"I believe Zimo is not a person who does anything wrong. He has a sense of propriety and knows what to do and what not to do. Or do you not even trust your own son?"
These words really have a unique flavor.
Zhou Zimo's eyes flashed, and he lowered his eyelids as if feeling guilty. Xu Ge thought of the photo of Yao Mengfan's death, and a mocking arc appeared at the corner of his lips.
Chen Ru was really in a state of distress at the moment. She couldn't really expose her own son's past in front of the old man.
Just then, a sound came from behind.
The servant called out respectfully, "Second Young Master."
Zhou Zimo clearly noticed that the person in his arms seemed to stiffen for a moment.
When Zhou Chen walked in, he first glanced at the two people on the ground. His gaze did not linger on them, but instead looked at Old Man Zhou on the sofa.
Mr. Zhou was also looking at him.
"Dad." Zhou Chen called out lightly with a cold expression.
Old Master Zhou nodded, his presbyopic eyes looking at his increasingly unfathomable youngest son with a sharp, inquiring look.
"Well, why are you back at this time?"
Zhou Chen looked indifferent, "Some information was left in the study."
After saying that, he went straight upstairs, and he didn't care about anything or anyone happening in this house.
But Chen Ru suddenly said at this moment: "Achen, look who this is? It's Xu Ge. Did you ask her to respond?"
When Zhou Zimo heard that his mother had exposed Xu Ge like this, his face darkened.
"mom!"
As expected, Zhou Chen paused as he went up the stairs, then turned sideways to look over.
When Zhou Zimo met his uncle's cold and indifferent eyes, his heart tightened.
Especially when Zhou Chen's eyes swept over his arms that were holding Xu Ge, he couldn't help but loosen his grip and even rolled his throat nervously.
He suddenly remembered Zhou Chen's warning to him many years ago.
"Zimo, put away your thoughts about Xiaoge'er. You two are not suitable for each other. Remember my words."
At that time, he was indeed afraid and did not dare to openly express his love for Xu Ge, so he could only hide it in his heart.
But it was clearly he who gave up Xu Ge in the end, abandoned her, and expelled her from the Zhou family.
Thinking of this, Zhou Zimo no longer felt guilty. Years had passed and he was no longer the boy he used to be.
Perhaps it was because he had loved her since he was young, but he had been unable to get what he wanted for many years, and as time went by, he became more and more obsessed with Xu Ge.
This time, he must get her!
He gritted his teeth, grasped Xu Ge's arm slightly, lowered his head and spoke softly.
"Xiaoge, why don't you say hello to your uncle?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Ge raised his eyelids slightly, and his eyelashes seemed to tremble again and again, as if he was afraid and nervous.
She didn't even dare to glance in Zhou Chen's direction.
But when he finally spoke the first sentence, his voice was as soft as water, yet full of alienation and distance.
"Hello, Mr. Zhou."
Zhou Zimo suppressed the upward curve of his lips and said with a pretended embarrassed expression.
"Uncle, Xiaoge may have been away from home for too long, so she may be a little unfamiliar with him. Please don't be angry."
Zhou Chen's face was as cold and indifferent as usual. He didn't seem to mind the way she greeted him. He just said something extremely indifferently.
"Who allowed you to come back?"
Chen Ru curled the corners of her lips. It seemed that Achen was extremely disgusted with the woman who had ruined his reputation.
In her opinion, as long as Zhou Chen disagrees, then Xu Ge, this bitch, will never be able to gain a foothold in Hong Kong City. It would be best to drive this little bitch away.
The atmosphere suddenly became dead silent. Xu Ge's face seemed a little pale. She slowly stood up, bowed slightly to the person on the sofa, and then planned to leave in silence.
Zhou Zimo didn't stop her because he didn't want her to stay here any longer.
But he couldn't chase after her immediately. He needed to plan their relationship slowly, and first he had to get his grandfather to accept it.
But when Xu Ge just turned around, the voice of Mr. Zhou sounded behind him, and seemed to contain a hint of sigh.
"Since you're back, let's move back home."
Chen Ru was stunned when she heard this. She said in disbelief, "Dad, what are you talking about? How can we let such a vicious person move..."
Old Master Zhou slammed his cane down on the floor. "What? My words are no longer effective? No one listens?"
Chen Ru gritted her teeth but dared not refute anymore and could only glare at Xu Ge fiercely.
Zhou Zimo couldn't help but feel happy.
Could it be that Grandpa has softened his heart? Has he accepted Xiaoge again?
"Grandpa? What do you mean?"
Mr. Zhou suddenly looked at him meaningfully and said, "We are family after all. Some things should be left in the past."
Obviously, Zhou Zimo only listened to the old man's last words and nodded in agreement.
"Yes, Grandpa, you are right. Xiaoge grew up in our Zhou family after all. Some things should really be let go."
Zhou Zimo suddenly grabbed Xu Ge's arm and said, "Xiao Ge, Grandpa forgives you."
A hint of sarcasm flashed in Xu Ge's eyes. She was not wrong and did not need anyone's forgiveness.
Just as she was about to speak, Zhou Chen's cell phone rang. He took a look, picked up the call, turned around and went upstairs.
As Xu Ge listened to the sound of one step after another, he felt an urge in his heart to tear off all his disguises.
She clenched her fists and turned slowly, only catching a glimpse of Zhou Chen out of the corner of her eye.
Old Master Zhou looked at her for a long moment before sighing, "What? Now you don't even recognize your grandfather?"
Xu Ge pinched her hard without saying anything, and Zhou Zimo quietly pushed her from behind.
This time Xu Ge finally looked up at the old man, bit his lip and whispered.
"grandfather……"
This time, Mr. Zhou finally stopped keeping a stern face, smiled kindly, and waved to her.
"Come here, sit here with grandpa."
Xu Ge hesitated for a while before slowly sitting down, but he kept his head down.
Old Master Zhou turned his head to look at the girl who was becoming more and more delicate, his sharp eyes filled with profound meaning that was difficult to see through.
"Have you ever been wronged outside these years?"
The posture of the person in his arms made Zhou Zimo's heart throb, and he couldn't help but whispered: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Upon hearing this, Xu Ge just lowered his head even more.
Zhou Zimo gritted his teeth and looked up at Old Man Zhou sitting on the sofa.

"Dad, look at them, how could this be..."

Xu Ge hesitated for a while before slowly sitting down, but he kept his head down.
Old Master Zhou turned his head to look at the girl who was becoming more and more delicate, his sharp eyes filled with profound meaning that was difficult to see through.
