Ever since Chen Hansheng got a car, he would ask Little Yu'er and Wang Zibo if they wanted to go home every time he went back to Harbor City. His other classmates who were studying in Jianye would also send him messages occasionally, "Chen Hansheng, are you going back to your hometown? If you want, give me a ride. I have something to do at home."
Usually, Chen Hansheng would just give them a ride. After all, the bus from Jianye back to Harbor City cost more than 60 RMB. It would be great if he could save the money and have someone to chat with along the way.
However, at this time, there were no other holidays in early June except for Children's Day.
The next morning, Chen Hansheng left school at 6 AM. Other than worrying about his mother's health, he also wanted to know what was going on.
After watching the farce between Ye Qi and Zhang Eryu yesterday afternoon, Chen Hansheng didn't even have time to think about it before Liang Meijuan called him. She said that someone saw Old Chen and a woman sitting opposite each other in the coffee shop and chatting happily.
According to Empress Dowager Liang's description, the woman looked a little similar to Mo Ke. However, according to Mo Ke's mother's character and condition, she shouldn't be going back to Old Chen. At most, the two of them would just sit together for a while.
Although Liang Meijuan was noisy at home, it was because she had a tolerant husband and a son who didn't fight back when you hit him and scolded him. In fact, Liang Meijuan was just an ordinary middle-aged woman in a small city.
After she felt that her husband was "cheating" on her, she quarreled with him without listening to his explanation. After that, she thought of her son who was not obedient but was very filial.
"Which idiot is so gossipy? This is purely to scare Empress Dowager Liang."
Chen Hansheng complained and stepped on the accelerator. Little Xia Li was still crawling slowly on the highway like a tractor.
… …
At noon, Chen Hansheng returned to Harbor City. He didn't go home immediately but went to Old Chen's office first.
He had rich experience and had to understand the situation clearly before he could come up with a plan.
Seeing that his son was back, Chen Zhaojun was both happy and worried.
He was happy because his son had really grown up and could come back to solve the problems at home.
He was worried because his wife's temper was not good and his son's return might not be successful.
"Let's go eat first."
Chen Zhaojun carried his son, who was taller than him, to the cafeteria. He felt a little proud, but he didn't show it. He only asked Chen Hansheng to call his colleagues "uncle and auntie" when he saw them.
Old Chen's colleagues also looked at Chen Hansheng in a friendly manner and responded with a smile.
"We're really old now. Director Chen's son is already so old, and he's still a handsome guy."
"Yes, he came here to do his homework when he was very young. He even wore a red scarf around his neck."
"Han Sheng still looks more like Old Chen. His eyebrows and mouth feel like they were carved from the same mold. His nose is just a bit like Liang Meijuan's."
… ….
Harbor City was a very small city. Various bureaus and offices in the government units often met each other, so everyone knew that Chen Zhaojun and Liang Meijuan were husband and wife.
Chen Hansheng recalled that the last time he came to Old Chen's unit was when he was in the fifth grade of primary school.
At that time, there was no air conditioning at home, and he would come here whenever he had nothing to do. However, after a thing called "Internet café" appeared, Chen Hansheng would rather watch people beat up the red police.
When they were eating in the cafeteria, the old chef, who was wearing water boots and a white uniform, walked out and talked to Chen Hansheng.
The government paid more attention to seniority. Even if the old chef did not have a permanent position, he had been cooking in the kitchen for more than 20 years. The bureau chief had changed many times, but the old chef was still standing tall.
However, don't think of him as the sweeping monk in "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils". That was a Wuxia novel. In reality, this old chef was very talkative and had a loud voice. When he got angry, other than the bureau chief, he would not give in to anyone.
Chen Hansheng greeted him politely and even took out a cigarette to offer him. Only then did the old chef leave with his head held high.
"It's also strange."
Chen Hansheng chatted with Old Chen while eating, "When I go out with you, people would say that I look more like you; When I go out with my mom, they would say that I look more like Empress Dowager Liang."
Chen Zhaojun smiled gently, "You are the son of me and your mom, isn't it normal for you to look more like her?"
"Hehe."
Chen Hansheng winked his eyes mischievously, "I feel that I look more like Aunt Mo, especially my eyes."
Chen Zhaojun, "…"
After eating lunch, Chen Hansheng followed Old Chen to the office. On the way, he was puzzled, "Dad, why didn't your colleagues praise me for being promising? They always praise me for being handsome. This is a truth that even a blind person can discover, is there a need for them to keep emphasizing it?"
Chen Zhaojun patted on the back of his son's head, "How are you promising?"
"Am I not promising enough to appear on TV?" Chen Hansheng said.
"Oh ~"
Old Chen seemed to have just remembered something, "I didn't tell anyone about this, and I also didn't ask your mom to tell anyone about it. It's just that you have some money, it's not worth showing off in front of your colleagues."
Chen Hansheng was dazed for a moment, "This is the only chance for me to become a 'good child' in the eyes of other parents, what right do you have to take it away from me?"
… …
In the office, the father and son sat opposite each other. Old Chen also talked to Chen Hansheng about what happened yesterday.
It turned out that Mo Ke had to go back to Harbor City to deal with some special reasons, and before she left, she suddenly wanted to meet Chen Zhaojun. In the past, Mo Ke didn't have this kind of idea, but recently, she had more contact with Chen Hansheng, so she thought of this good friend from high school and pen pal from university.
Chen Zhaojun's contact information was very easy to get, after all, he had always been in Harbor City.
At that time, Old Chen also hesitated for a moment, whether he should go or not. Later on, he felt that he was just going to meet an old friend.
However, he also sent a message to Liang Meijuan, just that he didn't tell her the truth and lied that he had a social engagement.
Old Chen often had social engagements, and originally, Liang Meijuan didn't take it to heart, but unfortunately, an acquaintance happened to see it, and that acquaintance even exaggerated it and told it to Liang Meijuan.
After Chen Zhaojun went back, facing Liang Meijuan's questioning, he actually confessed right away.
Wow, this is great, Chen Hansheng has to go back home from Jianye, which is hundreds of kilometers away, to "put out the fire".
"Hey, you …"
Chen Hansheng was speechless for a while, "How can a smart son like me have such an honest father like you?"
Chen Zhaojun glared at Chen Hansheng, "You're talking about the opposite!"
"The fire is already at our eyebrows, why are you still fussing over the details?"
Chen Hansheng stretched out three fingers, "Dad, there are three omissions in this matter. First, you didn't choose the place to meet. How can you meet in a coffee shop? You should go to a more remote place. Second, when my mother asks, you must pretend to be wronged and argue with reason. If you confess, you'll be in jail for a long time, and if you refuse, you'll be punished and go home for the New Year. Third, you shouldn't have let my mother know about Mo Ke's existence at all. Aren't you creating a Shura situation by yourself? "
Old Chen looked at his son who was beaming with joy, and couldn't help but interrupt, "Did you come back to help solve the problem or to talk nonsense? If you continue, I'll beat you up!"
"Sorry, the industry is really distressed by this kind of operation."
Chen Hansheng patted his forehead and said, "In fact, it's easy to solve this problem. You can directly call Aunt Mo in front of my mother and ask her to help prove it."
"It's that simple?"
Chen Zhaojun asked in disbelief.
However, Chen Hansheng was more surprised than Old Chen, "Do you really want to do this?"
"If it works, why not?"
Chen Zhaojun was confused.
"This method is simple and practical, but generally speaking, most men won't use it."
Chen Hansheng said, "Because in this way, you won't be able to have anything to do with other people in the future. For example, this time, Aunt Mo will think that in your heart, my mother is more important than her."
"Your mother is more important than her, and Mo Ke will understand."
Old Chen said with a smile, and his face was full of frankness.
Chen Hansheng lowered his head in shame, and his face seemed to be dyed red by the red scarf.
