Chapter 82: Who is My Girlfriend?

  (One last update, one more chapter for the public version! Just a few minutes later, it will be the VIP chapters! Hope everyone subscribes to "Dragon Son-in-law" and gives Xiaolong the greatest support! After more than a month of waiting, facing this moment, Xiaolong is a bit tongue-tied and doesn't know what to say. The shelf statement will be written tomorrow, tonight is just rushing to write one more chapter for the public version! Spread it out one more time!)

  Compared with Zhao Guang and Zhao Hongyu's discussion, in the white Ford car in front, Hao Zhonghua and his family of four were all silent.

  Grandma sat in the back, still a bit puffed up. Anyway, on such an important day today, Hao Zhonghua and Yueyang were late for a whole hour, which really made her very angry.

  Hao Zhonghua and Yueyang did not want to provoke Grandma again, so they sat in the front row without initiating a conversation.

  Hao Ren stared out of the window at the white clouds, lost in thought, just like Zhao Yanzi in the car behind him.

  Two cars arrived at the Starlight Hotel in the city center, and the two families greeted each other, following the service staff into the reserved private room.

  After they sat down, Hao Zhonghua took out a pre-selected menu and handed it over to the waiter.

  "These days, thank you for taking good care of my mother. I'm really grateful. Today, my wife and I are treating you to a meal, just to express our gratitude." After handing the menu to the waiter, Hao Zhonghua said.

  Just now grandma scolded them, they didn't have time to know each other. At the first moment, of course, it was mutual introduction.

  "I am Ah Ren's father, Hao Zhonghua. She is Ah Ren's mother, Yueyang." Hao Zhonghua stood up and continued to speak.

  "Hello, hello." Zhao Guang nodded in response, also standing up. "I am Ah Zi's father, Zhao Guang. This is Ah Zi's mother, Zhao Hongyu. And this is our little daughter, Zhao Yanzi. Thanks to Ah Ren's careful guidance, Ah Zi's academic performance has improved significantly recently."

  Zhao Yan's face turned purple with rage, thinking that the mid-term exam results hadn't even come out yet, and adults were truly hypocritical.

  "Mr. Hao and Mrs. Hao are world-renowned scientists, really admirable! Haha, I didn't expect you to be Ah Ren's parents, what a pleasure to meet you!" Zhao Hongyu chimed in with Zhao Guang.

  "It's just some research, I'm not a great scientist." Hao Zhonghua's face turned slightly red as he thought of being scolded by his mother at the other person's house earlier, and he hastily said.

  "What line of work are Mr. and Mrs. Zhao in?" Yueyang asked warmly.

  "Hehe, I'm just doing some small business. My wife runs a small design studio." Zhao Guang replied.

  "Not bad, pretty good." Hao Zhonghua said politely.

  He knew it was Zhao Guang's humility, because judging from the interior decoration of their home, Zhao Guang's business could not be small, but he had no idea that the company in Zhao Guang's hands was the famous Mingri Group, which shook the East China Sea! The industry involves various fields and is also one of the largest mechanical manufacturing groups in the country!

  Zhao Hongyu's design studio, with only a dozen or so employees, can be called a "mini company", but it is a well-known name in this circle, and the national ranking can squeeze into the top six architectural design studios!

  "Your daughter is very pretty, and she's in junior high school this year, right?" Yue Yang said with a smile, looking at Zhao Yanzi across the table.

  "Yes, she's just a second-year student. She doesn't study hard, so I asked Ah Ren to come over and discipline her." Zhao Hongyu said with a smile.

  "Hehe, has our Ah Ren been causing you any trouble?" Yuyang continued to ask.

  "How could that be? Ah Ren is very smart and sensible, I like him a lot. My husband always says Ah Ren is great, this kind of child will make the best son-in-law in the future." Zhao Hongyu said.

  Yueyang didn't realize that Zhao Hongyu was intentionally diverting the topic, and smiled humbly, saying that Ah Ren was still far from enough.

  "Will Ah Ren come and take your place in the future, becoming a great scientist too?" Zhao Hongyu asked again.

  "No, no, no," Yueshang hastily waved his hand. "Zhonghua and I are both involved in scientific research, so we know how busy and tiring this industry is. That's why we never planned to cultivate Hao Ren in this direction, instead wanting him to be ordinary like everyone else."

  Zhao Hongyu nodded in satisfaction with this answer. She had originally been worried that if Hao Ren would also focus all his energy on work like his parents, what would happen to Ah Zi?

  "Your family's Zǐ has a clear and beautiful appearance, one look and you can tell she is very intelligent, she will definitely achieve great things in the future." Yúe Yáng flattered and said.

  "Hehe, as for her academic performance, we don't expect her to achieve anything great. We just hope she can lead a simple life, find a good husband and have a loving child who cares about her, that's all we ask for."

  "It's just the beginning of sophomore year, isn't it a bit too early to be talking about this?"

  "Not early, not late..."

  The mothers on both sides struck up a conversation with each other and gradually became more heated as they discussed while waiting for the dishes to be served.

  Yueyang is a mysterious female scientist in the eyes of the masses, but aside from her profession, she is still an ordinary mother with countless topics about children in her heart.

  She and Yueyang were both renowned scientists, but they didn't have high expectations for their son. They had long been experiencing the feeling of "the higher you go, the colder it gets", so they hoped that Hao Ren could live a simpler and more relaxed life.

  Otherwise, with their energy, let Hao Ren attend the best schools from elementary school to high school, and then send him to the top universities at home and abroad for further study, which is not a problem at all.

  Hao Ren himself is also very low-key, never flaunting his parents' fame, and has always relied on his own efforts to advance step by step, eventually getting into Donghai University, which is still relatively well-known nationwide.

  Of course, the fact that Hao Zhonghua and Yue Yang have a son named Hao Ren is not a secret either. Only a few city leaders who know about this matter are also familiar with the temperaments of these two great scientists, so they will never do anything to make things worse or try to be clever.

  Yue Yang and Zhao Hongyu were talking enthusiastically, while on the other half of the table, Zhao Guang and Hao Zhonghua maintained their respective postures as fathers, discussing some work matters. Because they didn't understand each other's fields, the conversation couldn't go too deep, it was purely polite and superficial.

  As for Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi, they sat face to face across the table, staring at each other. The adults became more familiar with each other, and their topics of conversation grew wider, but they were always unable to blend in, cautiously paying attention to the direction of the conversation.

  As dish after dish was served, Hao Ren and Zhao Yan Zhi lowered their heads to eat, not participating in the discussion between the adults.

  "You're so busy working like this, you don't have much time to spend in the country usually, right?" Zhao Hongyu initiated a topic and asked Hao Zhonghua as she saw that the conversation between Zhao Guang and Hao Zhonghua was a bit stiff.

  "Not really, sometimes I go abroad for some inspections and research, but the time spent in China is not short either. It's just that when I'm in China, I spend a lot of time in laboratories or research institutes with Yueyang, so Ah Ren is often neglected, but fortunately this kid is quite obedient and basically independent."

  "Auntie, you're not taking good care of yourself either, are you?" Zhao Hongyu asked tentatively.

  "At home, we have invited a Mr. Wang to take care of my mother. When I and Yueyang are in the country, we also often take time to accompany her. Like this time's incident, it makes us feel that our previous arrangement was also problematic, so I and Yueyang discussed and considered hiring another nanny to fully take care of my mother," said Hao Zhonghua.

  "I can still walk around and don't need a babysitter!" said the grandma who had been silent all along.

  "We actually thought that Auntie gets along well with us, if you're really busy, then Auntie can just live with us normally and we can take care of each other." Zhao Hongyu said.

  "This is not right!" Hao Zhonghua hastily shook his head, "We've already troubled you for so many days, how can we continue to trouble you?"

  "Alright, I'm a troublesome old lady anyway." The grandma threw out another sentence.

  "Mom... I didn't mean it like that..." Hao Zhonghua hastily turned to his grandmother to explain.

  "Before returning home and after returning home, you called me twice separately. Are you annoyed with me or what?" Grandma said.

  "I and Zhonghua returned to China this time, took the opportunity to go to Donghai University for a lecture, then our unit arranged us to accept various media interviews, almost no sleep time, so very busy..." Yuyang explained.

  "It seems like everyone wants to get rid of me and leave me with the nanny, this old lady is indeed a burden..." Grandma continued to grumble, ignoring Yueyang's explanation.

  Hao Zhonghua also cared about his grandmother, but every time he called her, she would complain to the phone for more than an hour, making Hao Zhonghua's already tense and busy scientific research work even more piled up. In the long run, Hao Zhonghua didn't dare to call his mother again.

  At this moment, facing his mother-in-law's continuous complaints, Yueyang suddenly had an idea: wasn't it the greatest wish of his mother-in-law for Ah Ren to find a girlfriend as soon as possible?

  She turned around and asked Hao Ren, "Ah Ren, the one who came with you to listen to the lecture last time, was she your girlfriend from university?"

  (The next chapter is for VIPs, I hope everyone will support it enthusiastically! Xiao Long really doesn't know what to say anymore......)
