Lin Laoyao took a puff of cigarette and suddenly stopped in front of the artificial lake. His deep eyes scanned the unrippled lake surface and said, "Huayin has retired. What about you?"
When Xiao Zheng heard this, he couldn't help but said with a smile: "Even Uncle Lin, you haven't retired, so I'm not in a hurry."
Lin Laoyao continued to ask: "Are you short of money?"
"No shortage." Xiao Zheng shook his head.
"That's the lack of security." Lin Laoyao said slowly. "As long as you are willing to retire and quit the front line, I guarantee that you will be worry-free for the rest of your life."
"You're not going to bribe me with money. Have you changed your tactics?" Xiao Zheng said half-jokingly and half-seriously. "Uncle Lin, to tell you the truth, my work enthusiasm is higher now than before."
"Huh?" Lin Laoyao glanced back at Xiao Zheng.
"I used to just prove myself. Now, I have to support my wife and children. If I don't have any ability or ability, how can I take my son around the world and give him spiritual and material support in the future?"
"I can give you whatever you can give me. I can give you whatever you can't give me." Lin Laoyao said with a normal expression. "Your child is my grandson, Lin Chaotian."
Xiao Zheng smiled, shook his head and said, "Okay, Uncle Lin. Let's not talk about these fruitless topics every time we meet. Don't worry, I'm a little bored."
After a pause, Xiao Zheng looked back at Jessica who was looking at the door of the villa. He smiled and said, "Dinner is ready. Let's go back and eat."
Lin Chaotian didn't say much, and just walked slowly back to the villa.
As soon as he entered the house, Xiao Zheng heard Lin Xiaozhu's mischievous voice. He even communicated with the child through Lao Lin's belly.
"My child, my child, your life is so good. You have a strong woman like my sister as your mother. And you have such a beautiful aunt like me. I don't know how good you will be after you are born. I'm a little envious of you." Lin Xiaozhu said seriously.
"Why are you pushing me out?" Xiao Zheng smiled and complained. "It's as if this kid has nothing to do with me."
Lin Xiaozhu stuck out his tongue playfully and said with a smile: "Brother-in-law, you are not handsome." After a pause, she continued. "In my opinion, if the child can look like grandpa, then he has inherited good genes."
Xiao Zheng shook his head and smiled bitterly, not messing around with Lin Xiaozhu.
The family arrives at the table to eat. Lin Laoyao was still the chairman, while Xiao Zheng and others sat down one after another. Although Jessica had been busy all afternoon, she was not qualified to serve.
Of course, this is a rule he has set for himself. Never eat with the host.
It is said that China has many old-fashioned rules, but people don't know that in many countries with constitutional monarchies. These strict hierarchical rules still continue even in the 21st century. I believe it will continue without any major problems.
Because they are both Chinese, Jessica simply cooked a table full of Chinese food. Only desserts and a small amount of cold dishes are the Western meals he has been immersed in for many years. Overall, this meal is more delicious and tempting than the luxury set menu in a five-star hotel. Lin Xiaozhu also enjoyed his meal. While eating, he poured red wine into the glass. Feeling very good.
"Have you been to the hospital for a checkup?" Lin Laoyao put down his wine glass and looked at Lin Huayin and asked.
Xiao Zheng would accompany Lao Lin to a private hospital for physical examination every month. It is important to ensure that every function of the body is at a healthy level. When Lin Laoyao asked this question, he seemed to be looking for something to say. But Lao Lin didn't treat him as coldly as usual. He just nodded and said: "Checked. Very good."
Lin Laoyao nodded and said slowly: "Get some rest if you have nothing to do. Your body comes first."
A father and daughter were having a conversation in such a stiff tone. Xiao Zheng, who was sitting aside, was very upset when he heard this. What about the two parties involved
The dinner ended in a relatively harmonious atmosphere. My sister-in-law's belly was a little swollen after eating. She rubbed her belly gently and complained: "Damn belly, it's killing me."
Xiao Zheng joked: "If your stomach is not that big, eat less. If you like to eat, come over and eat after get off work. When did my brother-in-law become so stingy that he didn't even care about food?"
Lin Xiaozhu curled his lips and said, "It sounds like you welcome me to come every day."
Xiao Zheng laughed dumbly and stopped arguing with his sister-in-law. The group of people drank a cup of tea in the living room. Lin Laoyao stood up and went back.
This was his first visit to the house, so he brought many gifts. Xiao Zheng also asked Jessica to get some gifts in return, as courtesy was reciprocated.
And Lin Laoyao's visit this time also reflected his attitude to a certain extent.
He may still disapprove of the marriage between Xiao Zheng and Lin Huayin. But he still recognized the child in Lao Lin's belly.
This probably also reflects the so-called intergenerational relationship from the side.
On the other hand, Xiao Zheng also knew very well why Lin Laoyao chose to visit now.
After all, it is also for the outside world to see.
In this villa, there is his daughter, Lin Laoyao, and his grandson, Lin Laoyao. Anyone who dares to come here to act wild should first ask if he can withstand a heavy blow from Mr. Lin.
As Lin Xiaozhu said, this child is really lucky. I have such excellent parents, and such excellent grandparents. Once born, the halo above the child's head will be more valuable than Lin Huayin's first daughter. That is a truly terrifying existence that is loved by thousands of people.
After personally escorting Lin Laoyao and his daughter to the car, Xiao Zheng and Lin Huayin waved at the door and watched the car slowly leave.
"What did he say to you?" Lin Huayin looked away from the butt of the car and asked with pursed lips.
"A cliché." Xiao Zheng smiled, but slowly turned his head and gently held Lao Lin's hand. "But today, my father-in-law revealed an extremely important piece of information."
"Huh?" Lin Huayin looked at Xiao Zheng curiously.
"It's not that he hates me, but he is afraid of me." Xiao Zheng said proudly.
"Afraid?" Lin Huayin seemed to be listening to an international joke.
She's not bragging. Who in this world is worthy of Old Yao Lin's fear
"He is afraid of my strength, afraid that I have the qualifications and strength to confront him." Xiao Zheng said with a smile. "So, his plan today is to persuade me to retire like you."
Hearing this, Lin Huayin nodded and asked, "Then how did you answer him?"
"Of course I will reject him." Xiao Zheng said with a smile. "I'm only thirty years old. I'm in my thirties. How can I just retire? What's more, I also plan to let my children become the second generation of rich people."
"Regardless of gender, our children are the fourth generation of rich people." Lin Huayin reminded Xiao Zheng softly.
"—"
Xiao Zheng rubbed his nose and said with emotion: "For your starting line, I have to fight for my grandson's generation. The gap is really big."
