Hao Ren walked into the kitchen, greeting Zhao Hongyu and his grandmother who were busy with the cooking. Zhao Yanzi followed closely behind him, also politely asking after her mother and Hao Ren's grandmother.
Because dinner wasn't ready yet, they all advised Hao Ren and Zhao Yan Zhi to go upstairs and play for a bit before coming down to eat. The two of them went up the stairs, entering Zhao Yan Zhi's room.
Perhaps she had gotten used to it, but now Zhao Yanzi didn't have the same strong resistance towards Hao Ren entering her room as before. Of course, in this territory, everything had to be done according to her wishes.
"I play games and you read books." As soon as they entered the room, Zhao Yanzi immediately assigned tasks.
Hao Ren pulled out a book he had read halfway from the bookshelf and asked casually, "Your birthday is coming soon?"
"Next month's birthday." Zhao Yanzi also replied casually, opening the computer and changing into her usual pink slippers worn at home.
"What was it that your Third Uncle mentioned just now about the Western Ocean?" Hao Ren continued to ask.
As for their circle, he now knows very little about it. Sometimes he feels that they are no different from ordinary people, and sometimes he feels that every word and deed of theirs is shrouded in mystery.
"The Western Sea is also a force, similar to our Eastern Sea Dragon Clan, but they are in charge of different regions. However, their business operations on land are very poor, each and every one of them is stupidly incompetent, yet they are also extremely arrogant." As soon as the Western Sea was mentioned, Zhao Yanzi's words revealed her disgust towards them.
"What about the South Sea and North Sea?" Hao Ren asked speculatively.
"Right, but we don't have much contact with the North Sea and South Sea, usually only meeting at the annual conference." Zhao Yanzi said while waiting for the computer to start up.
"Annual Conference?"
"Uh-huh, it's just a routine meeting. The four departments of Jianghu Lake will all gather together. In addition to the annual conference, there is also a Dragon Clan Conference held every two years. Anyway, these things are more complicated than you can imagine, but most of them are taken care of by my dad, so I don't bother with it." As the computer screen flashed with patterns, Zhao Yanzi jumped onto her chair, holding the mouse to operate, and no longer had the mind to chat with Hao Ren.
Hao Ren didn't want to ask too much either, these things need a process of adaptation, just like Zhao Yanzi said, the real situation is more complicated than he imagined.
And from Zhao Yanzi's occasional words, Hao Ren knew that Zhao Guang was in charge of the entire Donghai Dragon Clan's affairs, and there were indeed many things to worry about. No wonder he always looked busy every day, and his cultivation level was even surpassed by his third brother.
Zhao Hongyu as Zhao Guang's virtuous wife is also very busy, only Zhao Yanzi is being pampered by everyone and is the happiest.
But no matter how happy she is now, as she grows up in the future, what should be borne will still be borne.
Hao Ren sat on the armchair, gazing at Zhao Yanzi in front of him who was fully focused on playing a small game, thinking to himself.
He picked it up and killed time.
The clock is ticking away, and dinner time will soon arrive.
"Azhi, Aren, come down and eat!" Zhao Hongyu shouted at the staircase.
"Here!" Zhao Yanzi and Hao Ren replied in unison, then almost simultaneously stood up and ran out of the room.
"What about Third Uncle?" Having arrived downstairs, Zhao Yanzi did not see Zhao Kuang's shadow and asked.
"He had something on, so he left first," Zhao Hongyu said with a hint of helplessness.
"He must have quarreled with Dad again?" Zhao Yanzi ruthlessly exposed, then sat down, "Forget it, I'll go find him to play next time."
"Your third uncle has a quick temper and can't listen to advice, some things should be left for him to figure out on his own." Zhao Hongyu untied her apron and said to Hao Ren's grandmother and Hao Ren, "Auntie, Ah Ren, let's eat."
"Alright, alright..." Grandma sat down, rubbing her hands, "I've been staying here for so many days, it's really embarrassing."
"What's wrong, Auntie has helped a lot here." Zhao Hongyu said warmly.
Grandma smiled awkwardly and turned to Hao Ren, "Ah Ren, I've already talked to your dad about it. Tomorrow at noon, the two families will meet up for lunch and get to know each other."
"Tomorrow at noon..." Hao Ren had expected this day would come, and could only nod in resignation.
"So, tonight is the last time I'll be having dinner at Xiaozizi's house." Grandma said with a hint of sadness.
These days, she and Zhao Hongyu are like old friends, and she is also very fond of Zhao Yanzi. Although Zhao Guang is taciturn, he is also very respectful to her. So if she really had to leave their house, Grandma's heart would truly feel a little reluctant - her two sons and daughters-in-law who were busy with work hadn't brought her such warmth before.
"Auntie, you're saying this... You can come to our house for dinner anytime, and if you're willing, it's okay to stay here all the time!" Zhao Hongyu said immediately.
"Hehe, how can that be? Can't always disturb you guys. Let's eat." Grandma said with a smile.
Seeing the reluctant look on Grandma's face, Hao Ren really hoped that Grandma could stay here forever. However, as Grandma said, they couldn't keep bothering Zhao Yanzi's family all the time. Moreover, his parents had returned to their country, so there was even less reason for Grandma to continue living in someone else's home.
"Ah Ren, why don't you just stay here tonight and not go back to school?" Zhao Guang suddenly said.
"Good." Hao Ren wanted to spend more time with his grandmother and readily agreed.
Outside, it's drizzling with a steady patter of raindrops. The atmosphere in the restaurant also seems somewhat melancholic.
This is the second time Hao Ren spent the night at Zhao Yanzi's home, this time in Grandma's room on a makeshift bed. The grandmother and grandson chatted until midnight, with Grandma speaking only words of praise for the Zhao family. These few days of staying over have truly brought out feelings.
The night passed and Saturday was a fine day. Zhao Hongyu took out all of Grandma's things, but still tried to persuade her to stay.
Grandma was close to Zhao Hongyu, but really didn't want to disturb them again. Because she owed them this favor, she had her son book the best hotel in Donghai City, the Starlight Hotel.
The scheduled time was 11 o'clock. According to the plan, Hao Ren's parents would first go to Zhao Yanzi's home, load Grandma's things into the car, and then head to the hotel for dinner together.
However, by 11 o'clock, Hao Ren's parents had still not appeared.
The grandmother who had been restless since morning finally couldn't hold it in and made a phone call to her son, only to be told that he was running a bit late but would arrive soon.
So they sat in the living room, continuing to wait.
Time quietly flowed, and half an hour passed, but Haoren's parents' car had not appeared. Grandma, who was originally able to remain calm on the surface, became impatient.
"Auntie, don't worry, maybe there's just a bit of delay on the road," Zhao Hongyu advised.
It's not just Grandma, Hao Ren also feels a bit uncomfortable. Zhao Yanzi and her family have put everything aside and are just waiting at home, but Dad and Mom still haven't appeared.
Another half hour passed and just as Grandma was about to call again, a white Ford appeared outside the door.
Mr. and Mrs. Hao Ren, dressed in a silver suit and a black long dress respectively, emerged from the car and hurriedly walked hand in hand towards them.
They walked together, like a pair of jade, both in appearance and temperament were very well-matched.
And if Xie Yu Jia were here, she would be scared out of her wits right now, because the people who have come are none other than Hao Zhonghua and Yue Yang, who just gave a lecture at Donghai University a few days ago!
Looking at Hao Zhonghua and Yueyang walking in front of her, Grandma didn't show a happy expression, but instead put on an unusually stern face, shaking her body, pointing to the floor, "Put out your hands!"
