capital.
In the study.
Behind the heavy and spacious dark brown solid wood desk, a man with a dignified face raised his hand and slammed the file bag onto the table.
"Look for yourself!"
Several pages of documents immediately slipped out of the opened file bag.
The man across from the desk had a calm expression.
He slowly took the documents from the file bag and looked through them one by one.
Since getting married, Liu Yuning has seen many of the indecencies in life.
Nothing could stir up any turmoil in his heart anymore.
However, when he finished reading the contents of the document, his heartbeat still fluctuated a few times and interest ignited in his eyes.
Then he curled his lips and smiled.
His younger brother never disappoints him.
It always allows him to live a bit wild and unrestrained.
Liu Zhenxing was irritated by his attitude and glanced at him with blazing eyes: "What are you laughing at?"
"I laugh at the fact that we finally have someone who understands the situation in our family. He managed to complete the most important life event in time before being manipulated and plotted against by others."
Liu Yuning spoke in a cheerful tone.
It was as if the long-lasting depression had finally found an outlet for relief.
He was not surprised at all that his brother got married without his permission.
Instead, I felt extremely happy.
Marriage is meant to be a union with the person you love, not a tool for others to calculate.
Liu Zhenxing was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that his eldest son, who had always been sensible and steady, would have such an attitude towards this matter.
Then he thought of something and his anger subsided a little: "Yu Ning, you have every right to blame me. Your marriage was my decision, it had nothing to do with your mother. Don't keep talking about calculations. We are a family, how can there be so much calculations?"
Liu Yuning scoffed: "My mother? She is not my mother. Besides, if my mother were still alive, she would not do such a thing."
"Also, Dad, are you becoming more naive as you get older? This really shouldn't come from someone like you who has been immersed in officialdom for so many years."
"I'm naive?"
Being called naive by his own son, the veins on Liu Zhenxing's forehead throbbed. He endured it again and again before saying:
"In that situation, what better solution did you have besides marrying her?
Believe it or not, if you had delayed it for another two days, this would have made the headlines of the Capital Daily! How many people would have poked at you and scolded you for doing something so immoral?
Even if you can give up your reputation, do you still want to save the face of our Liu family?
Besides, what does this have to do with your Aunt Song? I woke up in your room, and you got me pregnant. Why don't you reflect on yourself and still blame us?"
When this matter was mentioned, Liu Zhenxing suddenly felt that his blood circulation was not flowing smoothly.
Mingming has been a steady and gentle child since childhood, but now he speaks to him in sarcastic and aggressive ways, and is becoming more and more like his unruly and difficult younger brother.
Liu Yuning listened to these words.
Looking at the father in front of him who has lost his youth.
Suddenly I admire Song Jingzhi very much.
How did he brainwash his father, turning this once clear-headed and decisive man into what he is now?
He sighed, his eyes showing his disappointment towards his father:
"Dad, have you ever thought about why Song Chunhua suddenly came to our house? And how did she get into my room when I was drunk?
Or do you think your son's character and vision are limited to that level?"
Without waiting for Liu Zhenxing's answer, he put the documents on the table back into the file bag and put it back in its place:
"I think Xiaozhou's partner is pretty good. At least he chose it himself."
Liu Zhenxing didn't want to talk about his eldest son's past anymore.
Let’s get back to Liu Yuzhou’s marriage.
His chest heaved, and he took a very uncomfortable breath:
"Did he choose it himself? Look at who he chose! A sent-down youth, only has a junior high school education, and is also a second marriage!
They got married after only knowing each other for a few days!
I think he's not looking for a wife, he's looking for someone to piss me off! "
As soon as he finished speaking, the study door was pushed open.
Song Jingzhi walked in holding a pot of freshly brewed Huazhou orange peel tea.
"Old Liu, if I don't make you some, you always forget to drink it. Your throat will be hurt again soon."
She was petite, wearing a burgundy modified cheongsam with her hair tied up behind her head.
She is over forty years old and has not gained weight in middle age. With a little grooming, she looks quite charming.
Song Jingzhi placed the tea on the side table next to the desk, then picked up the teacup and poured two cups.
A cup was handed to Liu Zhenxing.
A cup was placed in front of Liu Yuning.
Her tone was gentle and soft: "You two, father and son, should just talk about the matter. Old Liu, please control your temper and stop getting angry at the child. I can hear your loud voice even from the kitchen downstairs."
Liu Zhenxing served in the army in his early years and was used to giving orders, so he trained his voice to be loud and clear.
But as I get older, it really hurts my throat to talk like that.
The tea arrived just in time, and he had already picked it up and took a sip slowly.
Song Jingzhi turned around and saw that Liu Yuning hadn't touched the tea on the table at all, so she reminded him, "Yuning, you should drink some too. My relatives from my hometown specially went to the village to buy Huazhou orange peel tea. It's especially good for your throat.
You talk a lot in class and it strains your voice.
I just gave some to Chunhua, and told her to remember to make it for you every day."
Liu Yuning didn't respond.
The tea was not touched either.
Liu Zhenxing took a few sips of tea and looked at his son's arrogant look, and was about to scold him.
Song Jingzhi immediately observed his expression and said, "Old Liu, how is this tea? Does your throat feel better after drinking it?"
"Yeah, not bad."
Liu Zhenxing nodded.
He took back the scolding that was on the tip of his tongue.
Song Jingzhi smiled and said, "I'm glad it's useful. It's worth it for me to have someone send it from my hometown."
Then, as if he suddenly remembered something, his smile turned into worry:
"Lao Liu, my family said Xiaozhou has been discharged from the hospital. His hand injury was so serious, and there was no one around to take care of him.
The geological team is in the mountains, and it's hard to even get meat in the canteen. What if they're malnourished? Should we find a nurse to take care of them?"
"Hmph." Liu Zhenxing snorted coldly.
When talking about Liu Yuzhou's injury, he became even more furious.
"He's capable of taking the knife for others, so what's wrong with him missing a meal? You still care about him, but when he got married without telling us, he never even thought to ask for our opinion!"
Liu Zhenxing had no intention of hiding from Song Jingzhi the fact that Liu Yuzhou had obtained a marriage certificate without permission.
You'll know it sooner or later anyway.
At this moment, Victoria Song's letter had not yet reached her.
The landline in the family compound could be monitored at any time, so most of the communication between Victoria Song and her was through letters.
Upon hearing this news, a flicker of surprise crossed Song Jingzhi's well-maintained face. "Married? Xiaozhou is getting married? Where is his partner from? What's his family background like?"
She was planning to match her niece Victoria Song with Liu Yuzhou, so how come they got married suddenly?
This question just hit Liu Zhenxing's pain point.
His tone was quite sarcastic: "Junior high school education, second marriage. What do you think of her background?"
Junior high school education, second marriage?
Even Song Jingzhi, who was used to the ups and downs of life, was a little confused.
Could that young master have such taste?
