Despite her anger, Zhou Ruonan remained rational.
Zhou Ruonan knew that Zhou Jin liked Zhou Bingchen.
Zhou Jin would always find a way to fulfill any request Zhou Bingchen made.
Today, Zhou Bingchen wanted to use the car, and if Zhou Ruonan stopped him, Zhou Bingchen would definitely be unhappy.
If the matter reaches Zhou Jin, Zhou Jin will still arrange a car for Zhou Bingchen, making Zhou Ruonan even more embarrassed.
“Okay, you can use the car at home for a day. By the way, you can’t drive, right? Let Xiao Guo drive you there.” Zhou Ruonan pointed to an SUV in the yard and said.
“Auntie, I can drive. I’ll drive myself. Xiao Guo doesn’t need to come; there’s not enough room,” Zhou Bingchen said.
Zhou Bingchen was too lazy to argue with Zhou Ruonan.
Zhou Bingchen learned to drive the year he joined the army. Everyone in Zhou Bingchen's squad, including Zhou Bingchen himself, possessed several skills.
Otherwise, how could they possibly complete every mission so well?
"Can't fit? Don't you only have two children? With you and your wife, that's four people in total, just enough to fit!" Zhou Ruonan looked suspicious.
Zhou Ruonan thought that Zhou Bingchen's request to borrow the car was a pretense. In reality, Zhou Bingchen was going to visit Zhou Jin's friends, which was why he wanted to get rid of Xiao Guo, his "eyes and ears".
“Aunt, Pearl has never traveled far before, and she brought two children with her. Uncle Tao brought them. There are four of them. I can fit them all in my car,” Zhou Bingchen explained.
Zhou Bingchen called Zhao Zhenzhu yesterday with great joy, but couldn't reach her.
Zhao Tianyu told Zhou Bingchen that Zhao Zhenzhu had brought the children and Tao Jiadong to Beijing early this morning.
Otherwise, Zhou Bingchen wouldn't have known so much detail.
Just as Zhou Ruonan was about to speak, the bell rang upstairs.
That's the sound of Zhou Jin calling for someone.
Zhou Ruonan hurriedly ran upstairs.
Zhou Bingchen hesitated for a moment, then followed.
Zhao Zhenzhu and her group's train wouldn't arrive until 3 PM.
It's still early.
Zhou Bingchen arrived so early because he wanted to talk to Zhou Jin. He hadn't had time to come before due to his closed training.
Zhou Bingchen only had time to come over these past two days.
When Zhou Ruonan entered the room, Wang Jing was taking Zhou Jin's pulse.
Wang Jing lived next door to Zhou Jin and was on call 24 hours a day.
This was the time when Wang Jing took Zhou Jin's pulse that morning.
Zhou Ruonan didn't dare interrupt Wang Jing and stood aside waiting.
A few minutes later, Wang Jing released her grip.
"Dr. Wang, how is my father's health today?" Zhou Ruonan asked with concern.
“Nothing has changed,” Wang Jing said calmly.
Wang Jing didn't show it on her face, but she was a little anxious inside.
Zhou Jin's health has reached its final stage. If the last ingredient cannot be found within seven days, Zhou Jin will fall into a coma.
Then they will die from the failure of various organ functions.
Zhou Jin knew about his condition and had instructed Wang Jing not to tell Zhou Ruonan about it.
In these seven days, Zhou Jin needs to arrange her affairs after her death.
He was afraid that Zhou Ruonan would cause trouble if she found out.
"Oh, that's good, that's good." Zhou Ruonan breathed a sigh of relief, then a look of suspicion appeared on her face as she questioned, "Dr. Wang, my dad is fine, why did you ring the bell? It scared me so much my legs went weak."
Before Wang Jing could speak, Zhou Jin said, "I pulled the bell. I heard Bingchen was here and wanted to talk to him."
"Dad, you only have Bingchen in your heart, don't you want to talk to me?" Zhou Ruonan pouted and acted coquettishly.
“We see each other every day, why do we have so much to say? By the way, it’s almost time for work, why haven’t you left yet today?” Zhou Jin said, quickly looking away.
Ruonan sometimes does things that are truly hilarious.
She's so old, yet she acts like a little girl.
If Ruonan herself wasn't embarrassed, he felt embarrassed for her just watching.
"Dad, I've taken the day off. I'm not going," Zhou Ruonan said.
Zhou Ruonan is very suspicious.
Every time Zhou Bingchen came to see Zhou Jin, Zhou Ruonan would find an excuse to stand aside and listen to what Zhou Jin and Zhou Bingchen were saying.
Zhou Ruonan did indeed take the day off today.
When Zhao Zhenzhu and the others came, Zhou Ruonan was afraid that Zhou Jin might secretly give Zhou Bingchen's family some benefits behind her back.
Zhou Jin has a high salary, and she doesn't have to spend her own money on food and accommodation.
The Zhou family was a wealthy family in the past, and Zhou Jin should have had a lot of good things in addition to money.
Zhou Ruonan did not want anyone else to take away "her property".
"Have Bingchen and the others finished tidying up their rooms? There are two rooms," Zhou Jin asked.
"Huh?" Zhou Ruonan was stunned.
Just now, Zhou Ruonan finally managed to get Zhou Bingchen to say that his family didn't live at home.
I didn't expect Zhou Jin to get involved now.
Zhou Ruonan felt that all her previous efforts had been in vain.
"I asked you to tidy up the room the day before yesterday, and you didn't?" Zhou Jin glared, her voice carrying an air of authority.
"Dad, it's all packed. But I don't know if Bingchen and the others will like staying at home," Zhou Ruonan replied after glancing at Zhou Bingchen.
“Since Auntie has already packed everything, we’ll definitely be staying at home,” Zhou Bingchen said, ignoring Zhou Ruonan’s hint.
Zhou Bingchen isn't stupid.
Grandpa wanted them to stay at his house, so why did he go to stay at a guesthouse?
Isn't this hurting Grandpa's feelings?
Besides, staying in a guesthouse costs a lot of money! Pearls don't earn money easily, so every little bit saved counts!
"Dad, I'll go see if we need anything else in the house." Zhou Ruonan glared at Zhou Bingchen and turned to leave.
Zhou Ruonan dared not deceive Zhou Jin about matters that Zhou Jin had inquired about.
Zhou Ruonan needed to hurry up and help Zhang Ma tidy up the room; she didn't have time to stand here and listen to Zhou Bingchen and the others talk.
“Bingchen! Your aunt is simple-minded but has a big heart. Don’t take her to heart,” Zhou Jin said, patting Zhou Bingchen’s hand.
Zhou Ruonan has never hidden her ambition.
Zhou Jin understood everything.
However, even if Zhou Bingchen had not been found, Zhou Jin never thought that she would leave everything of the Zhou family to Zhou Ruonan.
Everything was just Zhou Ruonan's own delusion.
“Grandpa, I’ll listen to you,” Zhou Bingchen nodded and said.
Zhou Jin asked Zhou Bingchen to open the desk drawer and take out two thick notebooks.
“Bingchen! These are the notes your grandfather has written over the years. I’m giving them to you. They contain my insights from various battles, big and small. You can take a look when you have time. They might be helpful to you,” Zhou Jin said.
"Thank you, Grandpa. I will read it carefully." Zhou Bingchen nodded, feeling a lump in his throat.
For some reason, Zhou Bingchen felt that what Zhou Jin was saying now sounded like he was giving his last words.
Zhou Jin and Zhou Bingchen talked for half an hour before Wang Jing came over.
"Mr. Zhou, you need to rest," Wang Jing said.
