It was already late at night when Zong Jize arrived at the Zong family's old house.
But at this time, Yi Qing hadn't rested yet, and the whole hall was still as bright as day.
As soon as Zong Jize entered, she quickly greeted him.
"Aze, why did you come back, kid!" That's right, Yi Qing, who usually pays attention to health preservation, went to bed so late today because she knew that Zong Jize was coming back, so she deliberately waited in the hall.
"Didn't I tell you that I'll be home late." When Zong Jize entered, his tie had been torn crooked by him, and a lot of stubble had appeared on his chin.
It's just that his figure is still so charming. Even the stubble on his face doesn't look sloppy at all, it just makes him look a little more wild and sexy.
Almost as soon as he entered the door, the eyes of everyone in the hall of the old Zong family's house were attracted by him.
Knowing that Yi Qing must have something to say, Zong Jize didn't go upstairs directly, but sat directly on the sofa in the lobby.
"You have been back to China for a few days, what are you doing these days..." Yi Qing actually wanted to ask if he was with Lu Yining.
After all, the RM Group's actions have been continuous these days, especially the matter of the board meeting held a few days ago, which has already spread in the Imperial City.
This made Yi Qing suspect that what happened to RM had something to do with Zong Jize. But due to the many servants around, there was only one way to change.
"Something happened, so I didn't come back."
Zong Jize knew that if he told Yi Qing that Lu Dingning was related to his absence today, since he didn't know Lu Dingning's gender, Yi Qing would probably be greatly irritated again.
"What is so important? So important that you don't even need to go home?"
Yi Qing asked.
But before Zong Jize could answer, she continued to ask: "What's going on with you and Qi Wen? And the future daughter-in-law of the Zong family you mentioned earlier... is it a girl?"
That's right, compared to Zong Jize's whereabouts in the past few days, Yi Qing was more curious about the things that Zong Jize had reported in Country F before, and the matter about his daughter-in-law.
But whether the daughter-in-law is a girl or a boy, it is estimated that other families do not have such troubles. It's still weird for Yi Qing to talk about this in front of others. Therefore, for the last sentence, Yi Qing deliberately lowered her voice.
"The matter between me and that person is over. As for what I promised you, it will definitely count."
His Ningning was originally a girl.
"Really? You won't lie to mom, will you? You know, my heart is not very good, but I can't stand your refutation."
"Don't worry, I won't backtrack." Zong Jize said, pulling off his tie: "If it's all right, then I'll go upstairs and wash up first."
"Okay, it's time for you to wash it well. I asked the kitchen to stew some bird's nest for you, and I'll serve it to you later."
Yi Qing also didn't like her son's bearded face.
Zong Jize got a response and went upstairs quickly.
As for Yi Qing, she was still staring at his back thoughtfully.
In fact, the imperial city is not big.
Yi Qing wanted to know one thing, and it was not difficult for Yi Qing who had such a strong background as the clan.
So Yi Qing was also aware of the fact that Zong Jize always went to Lu Guohua's ward after returning to China.
In fact, Yi Qing was really afraid that Zong Jize would go back on a female daughter-in-law of the clan.
But the strange thing is that Zong Jize agreed to her without hesitation.
This caused many things to pop up in Yi Qing's mind.
For example, should the son be married by marriage?
Or, send Lu Dingning to country T for the gender-changing surgery?
But after much deliberation, Yi Qing felt that it was impossible.
Could it be that there are other hidden secrets in this matter?
No, it seems that she still has to give Zong Jize bird's nest later, and then ask...
"Ningning, why are you playing tricks on me again?" Staring at the chessboard in front of him, Lu Guohua muttered dissatisfied.
And Lu Dingning, who was sitting opposite, had a heart-warming smile on his beautiful face: "I'm not cheating!"
"Why can your bishop cross the river if you're not fooling around?" For Lu Dingning, who had a lovely smile, Lu Guohua had a headache.
Today was the weekend, Lu Guohua saw that the child had been busy lately, so he forced her to stay with him in the hospital. In order to prevent her from reading documents in the hospital, Lu Guohua also asked Ruan Xiyuan to send chess.
In the end, Lu Guohua was worried that she would be too busy, so he wanted to use entertainment to make the child relax.
But it turned out that the kid couldn't play chess at all.
Of course, she can't play chess, so Lu Guohua is understandable.
After all, this girl grew up in country F, so she must have rarely been exposed to chess in country Z.
So as long as she wants to learn, Lu Guohua will still work hard to teach her.
But Lu Guohua didn't expect that this girl would take advantage of her inability to play chess and start randomly putting her chess on his side.
"My elephant is Dumbo. It flies across the river..."
Look, is this explanation bad?
Occasionally a few chess pieces go wrong, but Lu Guohua can still take care of them. But who can tell him why Lu Dingning took away most of his chess pieces at this moment?
"Ning Ning, why did you take away all my chess pieces, then I only have these few left, how can I play with you?" Seeing that there were only three chess pieces left in his hand, Lu Guohua was a little dumbfounded.
"I poisoned all your chess pieces to death. Now there are only a few left..."
Can playing chess involve poison gas?
Seeing that Lu Guohua, who was about to become a polished commander, the corners of his lips twitched a few times.
If this chess game continues, he will probably have to be admitted to the ICU again, right?
But although he kept complaining in his heart, how could Lu Guohua complain about her in front of his daughter?
Besides, it was rare for his daughter to sit idle with him, and it was too late for Lu Guohua to be happy, so how could he be willing to reprimand her?
Just when Lu Guohua was thinking about how to persuade Lu Dingning not to continue playing chess and find someone else to play, Zong Jize came.
"Uncle Lu, Ningning!"
Zong Jize was wearing gray casual clothes.
Zong Jize, who no longer had the suit and leather shoes of the past, looked much younger.
This made Lu Dingning, who looked up and saw him, stunned for a long time.
When Lu Guohua saw Zong Jize, he quickly said: "Master Zong, you came just in time. Ningning and I are playing chess. I'm a little tired and want to lie down for a while. Help me play a few games with Ningning."
After saying that, Lu Guohua really got up and gave up his position to Zong Jize.
As for Lu Guohua's actions, not only Lu Dingning was a little surprised, but even Zong Jize was a little dumbfounded.
Zong Jize is very clear about Lu Guohua's liking for Lu Dingning.
Ordinarily, Zong Jize also understood why Lu Guohua didn't like others to disturb their father and daughter's time alone.
So at this moment, Lu Guohua suddenly took the initiative to give him the opportunity to interact with Lu Dingning, which made Zong Jize a little flattered...
