Huo Beiting felt a little uneasy when Huo Zhen looked at him, and he felt a little uncomfortable.
But looking at Huo Zhen's expression, I knew that he definitely didn't want to leave. In that case, then just stay.
So Huo Beiting ignored Huo Zhen, took his clean clothes and went to the bathroom to take a shower. He even deliberately lingered in the bathroom for a while. However, when he came out, he still saw Huo Zhen sitting on the bed waiting for him in the same position as when he first came in, and the smile in his eyes seemed to be even deeper.
Huo Beiting felt deeply helpless. He wiped his hair casually, moved a stool and sat opposite Huo Zhen, and said.
"Grandpa, what do you want to say?"
When Huo Beiting spoke, he lowered his head and looked at his toes. His voice was deep and obviously different from the tone he used when he just refused Huo Zhen's coffee.
"Beiting, are you having a conflict with your girlfriend? Beiting, let me tell you, there are bound to be some conflicts when a man and a woman are in love. Sometimes there's no need to dwell on who's right or wrong. Just be humble and wait until the woman calms down before you have a good talk with her. I've been through this myself, I understand."
Huo Zhen patted his chest as he spoke, looking like he was making a promise.
Huo Beiting shook his head. If only it were that simple, but now it was Yan's father who wanted to stop them. If he had stopped them from being together from the very beginning, he could understand it a little, but why did he suddenly stop them after such a long time?
Huo Beiting has been thinking about this problem since he returned home, but no matter how hard he tried, he still couldn't figure out where the problem lies.
"Oh, sometimes you should stop being so aggressive about a man's self-esteem. Which is more important, face or your wife? You, sometimes you care too much about your so-called face, so you end up like this."
Huo Zhen sighed and looked up at the ceiling, a sad yet happy smile in his eyes.
Huo Zhen thought of his old partner, and talked to Huo Beiting while reminiscing.
"Back then, I was just like you, always caring about what we call face. When I was young, I had a lot of conflicts with your grandmother, and we even almost divorced. If I hadn't been more conservative and thought divorce was a very shameful thing, I would probably have regretted it for the rest of my life."
As Huo Zhen spoke, a sparkle appeared in his eyes, but before Huo Beiting could see clearly, Huo Zhen closed his eyes again, and the sparkle disappeared.
"I was confused for a long time. It wasn't until your parents grew up that I began to understand a little bit. Fortunately, it wasn't too late. I started to pamper your grandma. Although we would sometimes argue, I would just coax her. Besides, your grandma herself was not an unreasonable person. Once she calmed down, she would realize that she was wrong and would take the initiative to apologize to me.
Then as we got older, we gradually understood more, and the arguments became less frequent. The time after that was just like what you saw when you were a child."
It was the first time that Huo Zhen talked about him and his grandmother, which made Huo Beiting forget about his relationship with Yan Qing for a moment and focus all his attention on Huo Zhen.
"Then how did you win over grandpa? Do grandma's family members agree that you two can be together?"
The last sentence is what Huo Beiting really wants to ask.
"Your grandmother and I met when we were in school. We got together naturally after knowing each other for a long time. My family was well off at the time, so your grandmother's family didn't make things difficult for me."
As he spoke, Huo Zhen recalled the time he spent with his wife, which could be said to be his most precious memory.
"That's very kind of you."
Huo Beiting was truly envious, thinking that if his situation was the same as his grandfather's, he wouldn't have to live in fear every day.
"Let's get back to the point. So, don't always care about your so-called face. If you have a girl you like, you should chase her quickly, otherwise she will be snatched away by someone else. My granddaughter-in-law is so outstanding. I know all the things going on online. I heard that the movie star Liu Xiaoyun likes her. You better hurry up."
Huo Zhen patted Huo Beiting's shoulder as he spoke, his eyes full of disgust towards Huo Beiting. So much time has passed, and he still hasn't gotten the person. How long will it take for him to report that he has a great-grandson!
"Not those issues, but other ones."
Huo Beiting noticed the disgust in his grandfather's eyes, his face darkened, and he hurried to explain.
"What's going on? Talk to Grandpa and he'll help you find a solution."
Huo Zhen was extremely curious. He was thinking about what he had heard some time ago about his grandson and his granddaughter-in-law getting along well, so why were they quarreling again?
Huo Beiting hesitated for a moment, but still told Yan's father about how he had tried to stop them.
"...That's about it. I don't know what happened during this period. Anyway, Father Yan suddenly became dissatisfied with me, and today he even told me to stay away from his daughter. I really don't understand what went wrong."
Huo Beiting spoke with melancholy, his eyes and body filled with deep fatigue.
Huo Zhen immediately understood what was going on and gave Huo Beiting a slap on the head.
"Are you stupid? Can't you see such a simple thing?"
Huo Beiting covered his head and ignored the pain, looking at Huo Zhen with wide eyes.
Huo Zhen sighed and kept poking Huo Beiting's head with his index finger, looking very stubborn.
"What else could it be? You already said her dad sent someone to follow you, and you already said you work for a company. You're staying in a hotel all day and you call that work? People must think you're some gigolo trying to scam women! Oh my, you're really driving me crazy. You can't even figure out the logic behind such an order!"
Huo Zhen was so angry that he pounded the bed and kept cursing Huo Beiting.
After Huo Beiting thought about it, he finally understood what was going on.
It turned out that I had always thought that I had to be cautious and not go out to see anyone so as not to give Yan's father any handle.
However, he did not expect that this would give Yan's father the biggest handle, which was obviously inconsistent with what he had said before.
He slapped his forehead in anger, thinking that it was really the people involved who were confused. If his grandfather had not come back today, he would not have been able to figure out what was going on even if he tried his best.
"I see. What should I do now?"
"What else can we do? Save it quickly! But it's going to be a bit difficult to save it if you're like this. Let me think about it."
Huo Zhen stood up and started thinking of a solution, while Huo Beiting followed behind him.
So when the housekeeper came up, he saw this scene: two people were walking back and forth in the bedroom, one in front and one behind, as if they were thinking about something.
