But Jiang Junqing didn't know that every time he was teased, he would blush and stammer in rebuttal, but he would hold Lin Wangshu's hand from beginning to end and refuse to let go.
In the end, they'll only be laughed at even more. Lin Wangshu looked at the silly Jiang Junqing and could only sigh helplessly.
Over time, even Jiang Defu heard about it and was teased by his colleagues, who said, "Old Jiang, like father, like son."
"You and your wife have a great relationship, and your second son has learned everything from you."

When Wang Zhenbiao heard that the source was actually his own wife, he didn't believe it at first, until he later witnessed Zhang Guiying playing with the two children.
Seeing Zhang Guiying clutching her stomach and laughing heartily because Jiang Junqing's face was red, Wang Zhenbiao's expression immediately darkened. He glared at her fiercely and scolded, "What kind of behavior is this!"
