Upon seeing his father's expression, Chen Mu immediately ran into his room and slammed the door shut.
Chen Li was completely dumbfounded by his son's movements. When did his son become so fast? It was as if he had drunk some kind of lifeblood.
Shen Yanshi, who had started simmering soup, suddenly couldn't hear the TV outside, so she curiously peeked into the living room.
"Hey, Mumu, where have you been?"
Seeing that her son did not respond, she went out of the kitchen and walked around the living room. She only saw that her son's bedroom door was closed, so she went up and knocked on the door in confusion.
"Mumu, are you inside?"
Chen Mu hid nervously in his room. When he heard his mother's voice, he looked towards the door in confusion.
Could it be that Dad asked Mom to lure him out? What should he do? In desperation, he had no choice but to call Shen Zhifan. When the call went unanswered, he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
"Fanfan, answer the phone quickly."
Shen Zhifan, who had just finished playing with his younger sister for a while, returned to his room and saw that the screen of the phone watch on his bedside table was lit up. He picked it up in confusion.
"Huh? Mumu called me so many times?"
He quickly called back; after making so many calls, the caller must need his help.
"Hey, Fanfan, I've gotten into trouble."
Shen Zhifan looked completely bewildered.
What did you do now?
Chen Mulong said with a long face, "I sold my dad's Parker pen when I was setting up a stall last time."
Shen Zhifan was shocked. Parker pens cost over a thousand yuan, and he actually used them for charity auction?
How many did you sell?
"Is it 5 yuan or 50 yuan? I forgot."
Upon hearing this, Shen Zhifan sighed and asked what he could say.
How much money do you have on you right now?
Chen Mu was taken aback. Why was Fanfan asking this?
"It seems to be over a thousand, what's wrong?"
Shen Zhifan quickly racked his brains for a solution.
“I’ve got it. You take out 500 and give it to your dad.”
Chen Mu immediately refused upon hearing this.
"That won't work."
He worked hard to earn it, and besides, Parker Pens didn't make much money. Giving the money to his dad would be a loss.
"Don't regret it. You might lose the watermelon to pick up a sesame seed, and you might not even be able to pick it up."
Upon hearing this, Chen Mu was reluctant to part with his money, but after much deliberation, he decided to listen to his good friend.
"Then tell me, what should I do?"
Seeing that he agreed, Shen Zhifan breathed a sigh of relief.
"Okay, take 500 yuan out later and sincerely apologize to your uncle. Remember to be sincere. Alright, go now, I'll be waiting for your good news."
Chen Mu solemnly replied, "Okay."
Chen Mu took a deep breath, opened the door, and ran into Chen Li coming out. He quickly greeted him politely.
"Dad, I sincerely apologize for what I did."
Chen Li felt that his son was acting very strangely today.
"What's wrong with it?"
He walked straight to the dining table and sat down. At that moment, Shen Yanshi was bringing out a plate of stir-fried carrots and pork. When she saw the father and son, she asked in confusion.
What are you doing?
The two of them looked at Shen Yanshi at the same time.
"fine."
"Mom, I'm apologizing to Dad."
Shen Yanshi thought she had misheard.
"Apologize?"
Is this still her son? He actually apologized on his own initiative.
Under the astonished gazes of the two men, Chen Mu took out a wad of cash from his pocket, including 50, 20, and 10 yuan notes.
Chen Li picked it up and counted it; there were a full 500. He looked up at his son with a puzzled expression.
"Is this your way of apologizing?"
Chen Mu saw the wad of money in his father's hand, and lowered his head and nodded with a pained expression.
Chen Li's anger vanished completely, and seeing his son's pained expression, he suddenly wanted to laugh.
"Okay, Dad accepts your apology. I'll take the money. Think more before you act in the future."
Chen Mu nodded slightly.
Seeing that the matter was resolved, Shen Yanshi felt a great weight lifted from her heart.
"Then let's eat quickly."
Chen Li nodded, looked up at his son, and gave him instructions.
"Sit down and eat."
Shen Yanshi glanced at her son, then lowered her head and picked up her bowl and chopsticks.
An hour later, Shen Zhifan received another call from Chen Mu.
"Fanfan, my dad has accepted my apology and the money."
Haha, his brother is really smart, he saved him 7,800.
Shen Zhifan, who was reading a book, pursed his lips and spoke.
"Congratulations."
The two chatted for a while longer before Chen Mu went to wash up.
Qin Ziming returned home and knocked on her son's door.
"Fanfan, are you asleep?"
Strange, my son didn't play outside at all today, he went into his room so early.
Hearing his father's voice, Shen Zhifan got out of bed and went to the door, opening it. He looked up and saw his tall, imposing father, a slight smile playing on his lips.
"Dad, you're off work."
Qin Ziming entered the house.
"Yeah, why are you resting so early today?"
Shen Zhifan shook his head upon hearing this.
"No, I was just reading in my room."
Qin Ziming, who had just sat down on the edge of the bed, noticed the book her son had mentioned.
"Reading is a good thing, but you should pay attention to your eyes and the balance between work and rest."
Shen Zhifan nodded solemnly.
"Yes, I understand."
Seeing how sensible her son was, Qin Ziming gently patted his head.
"Okay, Dad's gone back to his room. You can watch for a little longer and then go to sleep."
Shen Zhifan nodded slightly.
"Okay, goodnight, Dad."
Qin Ziming returned to the room and just saw his wife coming out of the bathroom.
"Honey, why didn't you wait for me to come back so I could wash you?"
Shen Shiyi sat on the edge of the bed, supporting her large pregnant belly.
"I walked around in the garden and on the lawn today, and I felt sticky and uncomfortable."
