Starting today, I'll be updating 10,000 words a day!
Liu Jingze watched Zhang Shouyi's retreating figure. As he watched him enter the room, a dull ache gripped his heart.
Zhang Xingguo couldn't stand it any longer. This was blatant lust for his daughter-in-law.
With Liu Jingze around, no one noticed Song Zigan, who had a bitter expression on his face.
The children have all been born. You can tell Zhang Hongmei is a lucky woman. How did those four children manage to stay in Zhang Hongmei's womb? She must have suffered so much back then.
The old lady stood up. "Alright, you two go and rest next door. We can talk about it tomorrow."
The old lady felt sorry for her great-grandson. Her eyes were red and swollen. It only took seven days to travel from Shanghai to the capital; they must have traveled without sleep or rest.
At this moment, Gu Chuanming and Zhang Xingguo also stood up. "Let's go, let's go back together."
Liu Jingsong led Zhang Xingguo by the hand.
Liu Jingze, who was at the very back, glanced back at the door, then turned and left.
"Grandma, Jingze?"
"That's all we can do." The old lady sighed after saying that, and went back to her room with Hu Aifen's help.
When Zhang Shouyi came in, Zhang Hongmei was reading a book.
"Wife, you can't read now, your eyes can't be strained."
"Yeah, I was just bored. Liu Jingze is back?"
"Yes, and Song Zigan too. They came back together."
"Daughter-in-law, Grandma and Liu Jingze have taken a liking to our third son. From now on, he will be Liu Jingze's godson."
"I can see that too. Auntie likes the third son the most." Zhang Hongmei sighed after saying that. Before anything even happened, two of her four sons had already gone, and anyone who dared to covet the remaining ones would be dealt with severely.
“My wife is just an adopted son. He still has the surname Zhang, not Liu.”
"Yes, I know. I'm just thinking that if anyone dares to bring up the idea of a godparent marriage with me again, I'll definitely get furious." Zhang Hongmei felt a stinging pain in her face afterward.
"Wife, Dad has already thought of the child's name. Because of the fourth child's situation, Grandpa didn't fight with Dad for the remaining names."
"Brother Zhang, don't you want to name your child?"
"I don't care. If their grandfather is willing to help, then let him have it."
The eldest brother's name is Zhang Zhenye.
The second son's name is Zhang Ruifeng.
The third son's name is Zhang Weiyu.
"Zhang Zhenye? Zhang Ruifeng? Zhang Weiyu? That's fine, whatever. Don't you have a nickname?"
"If you don't have a nickname, just call me by my given name."
"But that's too awkward to pronounce, isn't it?"
"No, you'll get used to it. Dad and Grandpa both said that boys should be called by their names directly, so they won't be spoiled later."
"They've told us everything. If they dare to protect them in the future, I'll run away from home."
"Wife, if you run away from home, take me with you. Let's go together as a couple."
"I don't want to. I'll just leave on my own, and I don't want any of you anymore."
Lu Jing knocked and came in. "Hongmei, the security guard outside called and said there are two girls. Zhao Yuetong and Miao Xinyue are coming to see you."
"Them? Let them in. How did they know I was here?"
The two were relieved to receive permission, realizing they had guessed correctly; they did know Zhang Hongmei was the leader's wife.
After being released this afternoon, the two discussed it for a while and decided to come back to find Hongmei. In the end, they came here with a try-it-and-see attitude, and they actually guessed right.
Lu Jing led the two into the living room, asked a few questions, and then took them directly to the study next door.
"Senior Zhao, Senior Miao, is there something you need so late?"
“Hongmei. Miao Xinyue came with me. We just finished our investigation this afternoon. I can’t go straight home, so I want to leave the money with you.”
"Sure, no problem. Lu Jing, go and hand things over to Zhao Yuetong."
"yes."
Miao Xinyue leaned closer to Zhang Hongmei and whispered, "Hongmei, you don't know, only the two of us came out first. The other eight will probably not be out until tomorrow."
"Review?"
"Well, I can't tell you. Just pretend you don't know. We don't even tell our families."
"Alright, you should hurry home. There are no more buses at this hour. I'll have someone take you back. It's not convenient for you to stay overnight here."
Miao Xinyue spoke even more softly, "Hongmei, I dare not stay here. Even if I have to walk, I have to go back."
Zhang Hongmei smiled when she saw the girl's frightened little expression. She hoped the two of them hadn't changed.
"Do a good job, and call me if anything comes up."
"OK."
At this moment, Zhang Shouyi entered. Zhang Hongmei saw amazement in Miao Xinyue's eyes, but it vanished in an instant.
Good. They haven't picked up any bad habits.
Miao Xinyue awkwardly took her leave. She was so nervous. This was her boss—so handsome and charismatic! Only Zhang Hongmei could be worthy of him.
Since my feelings for Wyatt were shattered, I've come to realize that it's always good to have self-awareness.
Han Mei drove the two of them home. Lu Jing reported this to Zhang Hongmei.
“Zhao Yuetong handed me 20,000 yuan, and she only had 500 yuan left for herself.”
"She's pretty good, a thrifty person." Although she and Miao Xinyue also own 5% of the shares, those were the original shares of the trading company, plus their monthly salaries. For girls' daily expenses, being able to save 20,000 yuan is really quite a lot.
"Okay, you can deposit it into the account. Put it in a separate bank account."
The next day, Wang Xiaoshun drove the two McCann family bodyguards away. They also traveled by boat, but not to their base; it was a cargo ship.
During breakfast, Wang Ying came over and said, "Hongmei, Mr. Zhao plans to stay for a month. Xu Haizhen works at the service company. I plan to come back with Mr. Zhao in a month."
"Where is Zeng Zhongkang? What if he comes back asking me for him?"
"It would be good if he could come back in two months. That's what he told me before he left."
"Alright then. Are Aunt Wang and Ningning going?"
"They're not going; Aunt Wang plans to stay in the capital with Ningning."
"Okay, be careful on the road. Thanks for your hard work."
"Heh, do you need to be so polite with me? I'm leaving!"
"Tell Aunt Wang to bring Ningning over to play often when she has time."
"Okay, I understand."
With everything arranged, Zhang Hongmei felt relieved.
Liu Jingze and Song Zigan came over for breakfast. Zhang Hongmei met them in the study, but Zhang Shouyi was also sitting on the side reading documents.
The two reported on the situation in Haishi.
Zhang Shouyi coughed and said, "Hongmei, you should rest."
The two went outside, and Zhang Hongmei rolled her eyes at Zhang Shouyi, thinking that this guy was becoming more and more shameless.
She turned back to her room and looked at her four sons, which made her feel much better.
Zhang Shouyi is becoming increasingly petty, which is really tiring for him.
It's so tough. And she still has to be under his surveillance.
Zhang Shouyi followed behind his wife. After lying down with his wife for a while, he went upstairs to his study to work.
