Zhang Heling went to the kitchen to get ice cream and heard his mother talking on the phone in the corridor.
"Liang Zheng? What is he going to do?"
"Really? You're causing me trouble again."
"Why don't my words work? My words will work!"
"Don't let him come yet, I'll make some arrangements first! What are you talking about? Even if it works, we have to make some arrangements, right? You can't just let him come whenever you want!"
"Okay, okay, okay. Got it. I'll do it as soon as possible. Wait for my reply."
Zhang Heling trotted over with two boxes of ice cream, went upstairs and knocked on Zhang Yansheng's door.
Zhang Yansheng opened the door and asked, "What's going on?"
Zhang Heling raised her hand: "Sister, I got some ice cream, do you want some?"
The little girl's big eyes fluttered, she was sweet, cute and well-behaved.
Zhang Yansheng: “…”
I've brought them all.
Zhang Yansheng said, "Come in."
Zhang Heling skipped into Zhang Yansheng's room, and the two sisters sat on the sofa eating ice cream together. Zhang Yansheng put down the tablet computer and played a cartoon.
"Sister, my cousin seems to be coming." Zhang Heling said while eating.
Zhang Yansheng hummed, and after a moment he realized what was going on. He paused and asked, "Liang Zheng?"
"Sister, do you know my cousin?" Zhang Heling said with a little surprise. She only met her cousin twice when Liang Yingying took her back to her grandmother's house to celebrate the New Year.
But after entering the Zhang family, she has only been back twice. In fact, she is not very familiar with her grandmother's family, nor is she familiar with this cousin.
Zhang Yansheng didn't answer, but sneered at the corner of his mouth.
Liang Yingying is a late-born girl, and she has a brother who is a dozen years older than her. Her brother was spoiled by his family and became a good-for-nothing. When her mother unexpectedly became pregnant with her, she gave birth to her with the intention of starting over.
The couple was a little disappointed when the baby was a daughter, but something was better than nothing, so they just raised her, thinking that at least she would make money and provide for their retirement when she grew up.
Liang Yingying's elder brother is idle and does nothing, but he looks good and is good at picking up girls. She got pregnant at an early age, so they had to get married with the baby, giving Liang Yingying a nephew who was only seven years younger than her.
The old couple were so happy to have a grandson that they couldn't stop smiling. After much coaxing and praising, I was finally admitted to a prestigious university...a junior college. The old couple felt that this was the golden phoenix of the family, and that it was time for them to finally have their fill of hardship.
As for my daughter, now that she has married into a wealthy family, it's time for her to help her brother and nephew.
Liang Yingying boasted to her family on the phone that her words were effective and told them to wait for her to make the arrangements. In fact, she didn't say a word to Zhang Huan that day.
She hasn’t even got her Ferrari yet! Wait until you get the sports car before you talk about your nephew!
She took good care of Zhang Huan in the evening and made him feel comfortable. The next day, she immediately took her group of sisters to look at cars. Amid the envy of her girlfriends, she chose one and called Zhang Huan.
"Got it. Send me the account number and I'll ask the finance department to transfer the money to them." Zhang Huan said impatiently.
After the salesperson told Liang Yingying that the car payment had been received, Liang Yingying stole the show in front of her girlfriends and waited for another two days. When her family called to urge her, she finally mentioned it to Zhang Huan: "My nephew has graduated from college and he wants to come to K City. I thought, why not let him come to our company? Husband, can you arrange it for him~"
This is not a big deal. In a company, especially a private company, it is inevitable to have people with connections.
Zhang Huan didn't care: "Okay, let him come."
Liang Yingying heard this and called home proudly: "Let Liang Zheng come."
Her parents praised her on the phone, and the Ferrari clerk called her again and said, "It's passed customs, and you can pick up the car in a few days." Liang Yingying felt that her life was at its peak and she walked with a breeze.
When she met Zhang Yansheng at home, she could still smile when she saw that cold face and decided not to provoke this ancestor.
For Zhang Huan, this summer vacation was exceptionally peaceful, quiet and beautiful.
On this weekend, Zhang Yansheng came back from outside and the hall was full of people. All members of the Zhang family were there except her.
"Yanyan is back. Come, come, come, meet me. This is your Aunt Liang's nephew, Liang Zheng." Zhang Huan greeted her and introduced the young man on the sofa, "This is my eldest daughter, Zhang Yansheng. Come, meet me."
Zhang Heling also enthusiastically went over to pull Zhang Yansheng: "Sister, this is my cousin."
Zhang Shuocheng was sitting on the sofa playing his newly bought game console, so engrossed in it that he didn't pay any attention to anyone else.
Liang Zheng had a handsome face like a Liang family member, but his eyes were not pleasant. He is drifting around, with many little thoughts flashing in his mind, and you can tell at first glance that he is not a down-to-earth and sincere person.
"Sister Yanyan, I'm Liang Zheng. Oh, you've grown up so much now. You were still a little girl the last time I saw you." Liang Zheng said in a deliberately affectionate manner, with a look of deliberate sophistication on his face.
The "last time" he was referring to was when Liang Yingying entered the Zhang family.
Although he already had two children, Zhang Huan, a middle-aged man, had no sense of ceremony and was not interested in things like weddings. He did not hold a wedding for Liang Yingying, but only got the marriage certificate. But the entire Liang family came over for a few days.
It was just that Zhang Yansheng was making a big fuss at that time. Zhang Huan did not let his new father-in-law, mother-in-law and eldest brother-in-law's family live in his house, but only arranged for them to stay in a hotel.
The Zhang family came from a small place. Seeing that their son-in-law was so generous, letting them stay in a luxury hotel and arranging a car and driver to take them around, and allowing them to buy whatever they wanted, they were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling. The Zhang family didn't care, but Liang Yingying felt humiliated and hated Zhang Yansheng very much.
Facing Liang Zheng, Zhang Yansheng supported his chin and said lightly, "Hello."
During these days since Zhang Yansheng's rebirth, Zhang Huan has given him the impression that he has "grown up" and "become more sensible". His words and presence carry more weight than before. Zhang Huan explained to her: "Xiao Liang just graduated from college. I arranged for him to intern at the company. Let him work first."
An experienced person never says anything fatal. Those with connections can be arranged, and we can just “do it first” and see what happens next.
Zhang Yansheng nodded and asked Liang Zheng: "Which university?"
Liang Zheng puffed out his chest and said proudly, "H is great!"
Most people would give it a few words of praise when hearing this, after all, it is a prestigious university. Who would ask you whether you have a college degree or a bachelor's degree?
Liang Zheng has always introduced himself like this to others, only mentioning the school he went to and at most his major, but never mentioning his associate degree or bachelor's degree.
But the pretty girl from the Zhang family asked directly: "Bachelor's degree or associate degree?"
Liang Zheng was stunned.
Why is this girl so bad at speaking? Well, although he is indeed only a junior college graduate, who would chase someone and ask if they have a bachelor's degree or a junior college degree?
But Zhang Huan looked at him with a smile, cigarette between his lips. Liang Zheng had also interviewed at other companies before coming here. He knew that no matter which company he went to, he had to submit his academic certificates and also hand in copies, so he couldn't hide it from anyone. I had no choice but to answer, "Technical college."
Zhang Yan uttered "Oh..." long and meaningfully.
To Liang Yingying and Liang Zheng, it was extremely irritating.
But they also felt that what did Zhang Yansheng, a junior high school graduate, know? At this age, he could only care about the junior high school entrance examination, but it was not yet the stage for him to care about the college entrance examination. They felt that they were being too suspicious.
This damn girl shouldn't be mocking on purpose. Besides, how could she know in advance that Liang Zheng was a junior college student?
She just can't speak!
What an idiot!
"Well, they are all the same." Liang Yingying said hurriedly, "You may not know that H University is very famous and ranks among the best in the country."
In Liang Yingying's family, her parents are typical petty citizens, her brother is an idle ruffian, and her sister-in-law is too lazy to bear worms. This nephew is the only one in the family who is relatively presentable. After all, he is a college student. And no matter what conflicts she has with her family, she protects outsiders more than anyone else.
Liang Zheng changed the subject: "Has sister Yanyan entered high school?"
My nephew is the best, asking such a thoughtful question. Liang Yingying immediately smiled and said, "It's time to start the first year of high school. I'm going to No. 1 High School. You don't know, that's the best high school in K City. It costs a lot of money to get in."
Liang Zheng also said “Oh…”
Zhang Yansheng looked at Zhang Huan. Although he was still holding the cigarette and smiling, his eyes had turned cold.
Zhang Huan also wants to save face.
Zhang Yansheng was not the only one who felt ashamed when his daughter's disappointment was exposed in front of the new relatives.
Zhang Yansheng smiled and said, "I didn't live up to my expectations and couldn't get in on my own, so my dad paid to send me in. Now I'm taking extra classes, hoping to get into a better class when school starts."
Zhang Huan was very pleased to hear this.
If the child is determined to study hard and enters a good environment like No. 1 Middle School, there is no need to worry about not doing well in learning. When Yanyan was a child, she had very good academic performance. It was all because of the influence of her mother's death that she fell into this situation.
In his heart, he would never think that Zhang Yansheng's later decline in academic performance was due to the fact that he married a troublemaker and brought two illegitimate children into the family.
It's never his own fault.
Zhang Huan flicked the ash off his cigarette and asked Liang Yingying with a smile, "Where are you going to live, Xiao Liang?"
Liang Yingying said: "He just came to K City and is unfamiliar with the place. I want him to stay at home..."
"Okay, I'll stay here for a few days. It's fine." Zhang Huan waved his hand. "Just find a house as soon as possible. Young people need to experience more. Once they leave home, they will have to experience all kinds of ups and downs."
Liang Zheng was stunned.
His aunt had clearly said on the phone that it was fine for him to live at home. The last time he came to K City, he was impressed by the Zhang family’s huge mansion. Before coming this time, he had already spread the word among his friends that he would live in a mansion when he went to K City, and many people were waiting to envy him.
He was very dissatisfied and kept winking at Liang Yingying.
Liang Yingying also choked.
She had mentioned the matter of living at home to Zhang Huan before. Zhang Huan was in a good mood at that time, so he said "OK" casually. She thought it was done. Unexpectedly, Zhang Huan suddenly changed his mind.
She gave Liang Zheng a soothing look and said, "Xiao Cheng is still young, I was thinking otherwise..."
"Not young anymore. He has graduated from college." Zhang Huan said with a smile, "After I graduated from high school, my dad gave me a company to practice. As a parent, you have to learn to let go. Don't always think about taking care of him in every aspect. Boys need experience and endure some hardships."
The old fox simply stopped Liang Yingying from speaking.
Liang Yingying was stunned.
