Shao Lin was asking if the sleeping pills had affected his body, but Ling Chuan misunderstood that he was concerned about his cold and quickly said, "The fever has gone away. Take two more doses and you'll be almost fine."
Hearing this, Shao Lin noticed that his son-in-law looked a little pale, "Do you have a cold?"
Ling Chuan nodded blankly, "It's a cold, it's not contagious."
Shao Lin's face brightened slightly, "That's good. Momo is weak and can't withstand the hardships like you."
Shao Mo unconvincedly argued, "Dad, I'm not weak either."
"How come you are not weak anymore? You look so skinny. If you were like Zeng Fang, eating well, drinking well and sleeping well every day, and being as strong as a pig, then I would feel relieved."
Zeng Fang: Are you polite? Shao Mo felt that she needed to clear her friend's name, "Dad, Fangfang has lost a lot of weight now."
"You've really lost weight? How much?"
He happened to hear it when his daughter was teaching Zeng Fang how to lose weight last time, and he couldn't help but feel curious.
Shao Mo didn't expect that her father was such a gossipy person, and she couldn't help laughing for a moment.
"I lost about 12 or 13 pounds."
"So many? Momo, please write down your weight loss methods and recipes someday. I will find them useful."
Facing Shao Mo's curious gaze, Shao Lin had to explain, "I have a very important big client. His wife insisted on losing weight every day, but she didn't lose weight and ended up in the hospital. She almost lost her life, so the cooperation between our two companies had to be postponed. Since your method is useful, I thought of giving it to the client's wife to try."
“I see…”
Shao Mo thought for a moment and said, "Dad, my weight loss method is for healthy people. Otherwise, you can take me to meet this lady when you have time. I will talk to her first, understand her physical condition, and then tailor a weight loss plan for her."
"That's fine, but will it affect your studies?"
"Won't."
"Okay, I'll make an appointment with the client first and tell you the date then."
"Um."
Because it was the weekend, Shao Mo and Ling Chuan followed Shao Lin directly back to the Shao family compound, planning to go back to the small courtyard after dinner.
After a simple lunch, Shao Lin asked Ling Chuan to go back to Mo Garden to rest first, while he took Shao Mo to the study to talk.
"Momo, are you and Xiaoling okay?"
Shao Mo inevitably felt a little uncomfortable when her elders asked her about her relationship and marriage issues.
"What could it be? I can't divorce him just because of this."
I originally thought that with Shao Lin's favoritism and love for her, he would definitely say that he would support her or something, but Shao Lin's answer turned out to be the exact opposite.
"Momo, if you really want to divorce Xiaoling because of this, I will be the first one to disagree."
"Why? Dad, he did something wrong, but you still protect him. He is your biological son, right? "
Seeing her excited, Shao Lin quickly comforted her: "Momo, don't be anxious. Even if you want to convict Dad, you have to listen to what he has to say first, right?"
Shao Mo snorted, "Then go ahead and talk. I'm listening."
"Momo, if you have lost your feelings for him or your values are different and you can't live together anymore, then I totally agree with your divorce.
But you are not like that. You have feelings for each other and get along very well. It is not worth it if you break up just because of such a misunderstanding.
Shao Lin's face showed sadness and regret, and it was obvious that he had not let go of the old matter with Huang Zhiqiu.
Shao Mo took the opportunity to ask the doubts in her heart, "Dad, have you not let go of your feelings for Mom?"
The topic suddenly turned to himself, and Shao Lin couldn't help scratching his head in embarrassment. "I can't really explain it. In fact, before I knew about your existence, I almost forgot about your mother. Later, when we met, I was overwhelmed with emotions and sighed, and didn't have any other thoughts.
But I don't know why, during this period of time, I often contacted her on the phone, chatting and talking about my feelings, and I thought it would be nice if we could live together in the future.
But I don't want to and can't force her. Your mother is the same as you. She looks weak, but her mind is more righteous than anyone else. When she was young, she refused to come to the capital with me, let alone now.
Now I have the whole family to take care of, and I have to take care of your grandmother and you, so I can't just leave all that behind and go find her. In fact, it's also good to just treat her as an old friend. Living together is bound to have bumps and quarrels.
But Momo, you and Xiaoling are different from me and your mother. You are a serious couple. Dad still hopes that you can manage this marriage seriously. No matter what the final result is, you will not regret it when you think about it in the future. Do you understand?"
Shao Mo nodded, "Dad, I understand what you mean. I have actually forgiven him, but I just want him to learn a lesson, so I am still pretending that I am still angry."
"That's good. That's what should be done. Don't be angry for too long. Just one month, maybe you can move back home during that month and let him reflect on his actions over there by himself."
Shao Mo: “…”
Instigating your daughter and son-in-law to separate, don't you really want to change your son-in-law? Shao Mo did not agree to move back to the Shao family compound to live for a month. It was so cold, she didn't want to sleep alone in a cold bed for a month.
But before leaving, she also planted a bomb in Shao Lin's heart.
"Dad, do you know Chen Bin?"
"I don't know, who is it?"
"Oh, when mom and uncle founded the bamboo weaving factory, he also got involved. Now he is the deputy director of the bamboo weaving factory, mainly responsible for external business."
Shao Lin nodded, "Does he have any problem?"
Shao Mo smiled and said, "No problem. Brother Chen is a very good person, he is righteous and open-minded, and he is very popular in the village. He has made an indelible contribution to the smooth opening of the bamboo weaving factory."
Hearing his daughter's high praise for Chen Bin, Shao Lin felt inexplicably unhappy, "How old is this Chen Bin?"
“I’m 30 this year.”
"He's 30, so he's married, right? People from your mom's place seem to get married pretty early."
"No, but Brother Chen seems to be quite interested in my mom. He used to drive a motorcycle taxi, and he always gave my mom free rides to town. He's pretty good in the village, but he refuses to date anyone who introduces him to a date. I don't know if he's waiting for my mom."
“…”
—
Ling Chuan did not rest. As soon as Shao Mo returned to Moyuan, he nervously asked what the father and daughter had talked about.
"Wife, is Dad angry with me? How about I go and apologize to him?"
Seeing the man's nervous expression, Shao Mo secretly laughed in her heart, but complained dissatisfiedly, "Dad keeps saying good things about you in front of me. If you don't know, you would think you are his biological son!"
Ling Chuan was a little bit unbelievable, "Wife, Dad, didn't he scold me?"
