Zhou Weibin felt the fingers on his forehead, which were filled with love and heartache, which made his heart tremble. His aunt loved him and always had loved him. It was not like what Fang Xin said that this aunt only recognized him as her nephew in order to ask his father and grandfather to help with things.
"Aunt, how old were you before I was born?"
Zhou Xiang bent his thumb and exerted force, sending it out with great force. "Little brat, you still dare to look down on my age? Back then, your dad always asked me for salted eggs, just to get your mom to eat more so that he could fatten you up. Are you going to deny it after eating them? I'm telling you, you've been eating our salted eggs since you were a fetus. You've eaten countless salted eggs. Do you dare to deny it?"
"It hurts~" Zhou Weibin covered his forehead and grinned, acting coquettishly to his aunt.
Zhou Xiang tapped the top of his head again, "It hurts, that's right, it hurts your body, your grandparents are heartbroken, your grandma even cried, because she feels bad that you were treated like a fool by others.
You! Be more careful! Your father and I have been siblings for over 20 years, and Lawyer Fang is just a lawyer I've hired for four years. Don't you know which is more important? You blindly listen to other people's nonsense. You are so stupid. Eat the salted egg white."
Zhou Weibin grabbed Zhou Xiang's hand and said, "Aunt, stop playing. I just don't feel convinced. She always compares me with Jian Jiankang, and I want to prove myself."
"What do you have to prove it? Money?" Zhou Xiang was so disappointed that he slapped him on the head with his other hand, "Stupid!"
Zhou Weibin stretched out a hand, intending to grab Zhou Xiang's hand again, but was blocked by the jealous Ling Ran's big slap, "Alright, this is my wife."
"This is my aunt, biological mother, we both have the surname Zhou." Zhou Weibin looked at the jealous Ling Ran and argued with him.
Ling Ran pulled his wife up and hugged her directly into his arms, "This is my dear wife."
"Come on," Zhou Xiang's face flushed, and he pushed his arms away. This was someone else's home! "Why are you fussing over a child?"
"He's already 20."
"I'm nineteen and a half."
Ling Ran raised his foot, "Are you lying on the ground pretending to be a little kid? If you don't get up, I'll kick you."
Zhou Weibin then got up and approached Zhou Xiang with a smug look on his face, "Auntie, touch me again."
Zhou wanted to reach out and touch it, but Ling Ran stopped him, "No."
Zhou wanted to push him away, "Go away, I'm going to comfort my nephew."
As he spoke, he placed his hands on Zhou Weibin's face and pulled them apart. "How is it? Very loving, right?"
"It hurts~" Zhou Weibin's eyes were full of smiles, and tears were flowing from the corners of his eyes.
"It hurts to learn a lesson. Be good and cry in your uncle's arms. You will feel better after crying." Without giving Zhou Weibin and Ling Ran time to react, Zhou Xiang turned around and pushed Zhou Weibin into Ling Ran's arms.
Ling Ran was embraced by Zhou Weibin, and he pushed him away with disgust, "Go away and ask your dad for a hug."
"Who do you think cares?" Zhou Weibin, who was pushed away, shook off the goose bumps on his body, "You are not a soft girl."
The atmosphere had gone from tense at the beginning to Zhou Xiang's calmness, and now to laughter and anger. Zhou Zuoping, Chen Wenlian, and Zhou Yizhou were dazzled and stunned. But, was Weibin okay? Was he clear-headed?
"Weibin?" Chen Wenlian called her grandson in a trembling voice.
Looking at his grandmother with red and swollen eyes, Zhou Weibin was a little at a loss. He had been against his family for several years and suddenly didn't know how to get along with them.
Zhou Xiang stretched out his hand and pushed, "Go, apologize to your grandparents, they are most worried about you."
Zhou Weibin took advantage of the momentum from his back and took a step forward to reach his grandmother. He opened his arms and hugged her, "Grandma, I'm sorry."
Chen Wenlian couldn't help crying and patted her grandson's back. "You, my child, always make us worry. Grandma's heart hurts! It feels like something is clutching it. From childhood to adulthood, Grandma was afraid that you would be wronged. But what you fear will come true. From Wang Shuai to Fang Xin, each of them has wronged you greatly. Wuuuuu."
Zhou Weibin couldn't control his tears and cried with his grandmother.
Zhou Zuoping wiped the corners of his eyes and said, "Okay, everything should be back to normal now, right?"
Zhou Yizhou walked over to Zhou Xiang and said, "Sister, you still have a way."
"What he lacks is what you can't give him. Once he's grown up, everything will be fine."
A father can never make up for a child who lacks maternal love. If Hu Yingying hadn't cheated on him, why would he have persuaded Zhou Yizhou to divorce? Alas, it seems that he should also bear some responsibility for Zhou Weibin's behavior.
After the grandson and his grandmother finished crying, Zhou Weibin turned to look at Ling Ran, "Uncle, can you do me a favor? I want to train with the team for one summer vacation, just one summer vacation." He raised his index finger for emphasis.
"Weibin?" Chen Wenlian held her grandson's hand. "Why do you have such an idea? The team training is too hard, you..."
"Wenlian!" Zhou Zuoping stopped his wife, "I support Weibin to go to the team and experience it."
He was reluctant to let his grandson join the army, but if he just wanted to train and get a feel for it, it would still be feasible, and it would be a good opportunity to stay away from Fang Xin.
"I support it too." Zhou Yizhou voted in favor.
Chen Wenlian looked at Zhou Xiang pleadingly.
"I agree," Zhou Xiang nodded. "Aunt Chen, Weibin is missing a lot on his path to growth. It's wrong for him to seek a sense of existence from Fang Xin, but you still can't give him what he lacks. Why not let him go to the team and learn how to become a man of integrity, instead of just growing in stature but not in heart like he is now?"
I think, if Zhou Weibin didn't hide away for a while after being followed by his biological father tonight, who knows what kind of crazy thoughts his fragile mind would have. Now he can directly ask to go to the team for training. Isn't this the first step in his spiritual transformation?
Chen Wenlian could not find any allies and could only obey the majority.
Ling Ran frowned, "Weibin, the training in the team is not as simple as you think. They say all kinds of things, and you will cry."
This sentence made Zhou Weibin's blood rush to his head. Not only his face but also his neck turned red. "Uncle, can you forget what happened just now?"
"No!" Ling Ran was not going to indulge him. "Let me contact you. Wait for my news!"
After saying that, he hugged his wife and walked out, "Let's go home! If you ask me, a naughty kid should be beaten well. If that doesn't work, then beat him twice. There will always be a time when he will be beaten into submission."
Zhou Xiang turned around and said, "Uncle Zhou, Aunt Chen, Brother Zhou, let's go back. Weibin, you stay home and wait for your uncle to make arrangements for you. You are not allowed to see her again. No matter what excuse she uses, you are not allowed to be stubborn. There is no need for any explanation or ending, because it never even started."
"I understand." Zhou Weibin nodded vigorously. He listened to his aunt.
Chen Wenlian thanked him repeatedly. If Zhou Xiang hadn't come over, her grandson didn't know when he would figure it out.
The Zhou family members stayed until they reached the school gate.
