Zhang Yu'an glanced at his son and gestured to his wife, Wu Fang, to take their son into the house first.
Wu Fang frowned, wondering what her husband was up to now.
Over the years, if it weren't for Zhang Yuping's help, she would have wanted to divorce Zhang Yu'an and take her son long ago. It was Zhang Yuping who kept persuading her that the child was still young and that divorce would be bad for the child, so she endured it again and again and barely maintained this little family.
She respected Zhang Yuping and often taught Zhang Jun to be grateful.
Fortunately, Zhang Jun is more successful than his father. He is not only smart but also hardworking and has good grades. He is just a bit introverted and doesn't smile much.
Wu Fang hoped that Zhang Jun could be as lively as Yuan Bao, but she also knew that this couldn't be forced, as every child has their own personality.
Moreover, with a father like Zhang Yu'an, he probably wouldn't be able to laugh even if he wanted to.
Wu Fang sighed and gently stroked Zhang Jun's head. Through the door, she could vaguely hear the conversation between the two Zhang brothers.
She took out the CD player and asked, "Jun Jun, haven't you done your English listening practice yet?"
Zhang Jun nodded, took Wu Fang's hand and said, "Mom, I'm all grown up now. You can rely on me. If Dad makes a mistake again this time, let's get a divorce. Don't worry about me."
As he spoke, he put on his headphones, pressed the play button, and became completely absorbed in his reading, oblivious to everything else.
Wu Fang sniffed, her nose stinging with tears, feeling both touched and heartbroken.
Zhang Jun developed early and is already going through puberty, but he is still just a teenager. He is so sensible that it breaks your heart.
She wiped away her tears and listened to the sounds outside the door.
Zhang Yu'an sneered and mocked, "You've wronged me in every way? You've wronged me in every way!"
"Look at the house you live in, and then look at the house I live in! You promised to find me a job, and all I get is standing guard at the door! I'm your own brother! Don't I have any dignity?"
Zhang Yuping was so angry that his chest ached and he was speechless for a moment.
Seeing this, Mo Ye tapped his back with his fingertip.
Zhang Yuping suddenly felt a surge of relief and started firing like a machine gun.
"What's wrong with this house? If you want to live in a villa, then earn the money and buy it yourself!"
"You think being a security guard is undignified? Then show me what you're capable of! I own a company, not a charity. Why should I support an idle person like you?"
"If you had even half of what the third brother is capable of, you wouldn't need your older brother to help you buy a house, a car, or find a job!"
These words pierced Zhang Yu'an's heart. His eyes darkened, and the next second his expression became even more ferocious.
"Third brother, third brother! When Mom and Dad were alive, they favored the third brother, and now you favor the third brother too! Am I not your younger brother?!"
"Slap!" Zhang Yuping slapped Zhang Yu'an across the face, his chest heaving violently.
"Don't you have any conscience? Have you lost your conscience? Don't you know who your parents love the most? If you hadn't been causing trouble all the time, would your parents have passed away so soon?"
When the two elders were mentioned, Zhang Yuping's eyes reddened even more, and his eyes welled up with tears.
Zhang Yu'an turned his head to the side after being slapped, and fell silent.
Zhang Yuping continued, "You say I favor the third son? Did I buy him a house? Or find him a job?"
He took a deep breath and said, "I'm not here to argue with you about these things. Tell me, where did you get that harmful stuff from?"
"I don't know what you're talking about." Zhang Yu'an subconsciously looked away.
"Are you still being stubborn? You gave the blind box to Yuanbao! Think it through and tell me! You know Lao Chen too. If you're lying, I won't hesitate to turn a blind eye and take legal action."
Zhang Yu'an's body trembled involuntarily as he said, "I followed the tutorial online myself. I was just angry that you made me a security guard, and I wanted to teach you a lesson. I didn't expect it to actually work."
"Then why did you harm Yuanbao? Do you know that this action almost cost the child his life!"
A look of panic flashed in Zhang Yu'an's eyes.
"I didn't want to harm Yuanbao either, but... but it's just that other things are not convenient to tamper with, so it's easier to do something with children's toys."
As Zhang Yu'an spoke, he knelt down and begged for forgiveness, "Brother, I know I was wrong, please forgive me! We're brothers!"
Seeing that Zhang Yuping did not move, he pointed three fingers to the sky and said, "Brother, I swear to God, I will definitely be a good person from now on. Please forgive me this time, the last time!"
“This isn’t the first time you’ve begged me like this, and I’ve forgiven you before. The worst thing you could do was to touch my family! You are my younger brother, that’s true, but Yuanbao is also my son. Zhang Yu’an, this time, you’ve crossed my line.”
“I will notify my lawyer to sever all ties with you. From now on, I will no longer be your older brother, and you will no longer be my younger brother.”
"Brother! No! I was wrong, I really know I was wrong, please don't disown me! You're my only brother! An elder brother is like a father, you promised Mom and Dad you would take care of me!" Zhang Yu'an hugged Zhang Yuping's trouser leg and wailed.
Zhang Yuping closed his eyes, feeling an intense burning sensation.
Countless times before, he had forgiven Zhang Yu'an because of this sentence.
This time, it's impossible.
Kui Kui frowned as she looked at the two brothers, their faces streaked with tears. She knew it was familial love, but she couldn't truly empathize with them.
She remembered Old Lady Wang, and she remembered Yan Shi'an, and she remembered those memories related to them, but she couldn't recall the emotions she felt at the time.
This annoyed her, and she frowned and immediately interrupted, "Zhang Yu'an, you're lying."
