After the frail beauty went to the countryside, she went crazy with scientific research.

Chapter 333, Episode 0361: This kind of relationship can be broken up.

Leng Zhi paused, then suddenly felt a stinging sensation in his eyes.

When he was little, whenever he had a conflict with his older brother, his father would always criticize and punish him first. At that time, he did not understand his father's good intentions, nor did he remember what his father said when he criticized and punished him. He only remembered that his father scolded him and his grandfather punished him, and he felt very wronged.

He joined the army at the age of sixteen and was stationed in all directions. He fought in domestic wars and overseas wars, and he can't even remember how many injuries he has suffered.

If you ask him if he's suffering,
How could it not be bitter?!

Before I got married, whenever I was injured and lying in the hospital, and wanted to see my family, my dad was always too busy, even though he was so close to me on several occasions.

Was he wronged?

He is wronged!

Especially when he learned that his older brother was only having his appendix removed but his father had been with him the whole time, he felt so wronged that he secretly cried in his dormitory.

Even though I knew Dad was free at the time, I was still so sad, so incredibly sad.

As he grew up, he became more sensible and understood his father's good intentions. Especially after getting married and becoming the pillar of his small family, his father also entrusted him with some family affairs, which made him understand even more the hardships his father had endured.

He understood his father's desire for family harmony and prosperity, so he didn't dwell on his elder brother and sister-in-law's little schemes as long as they weren't excessive.

Even though he doesn't mind, he still feels uneasy, especially since his father's sometimes biased way of handling things makes him feel frustrated.

"Dad, now you realize that my third brother and I have suffered a lot at the hands of the eldest brother over the years."

"What third brother? That's your second brother." The old man glared.

"Dad, that's not important. Don't try to change the subject. Over the years, the eldest son's family has taken a lot of benefits from my and my third brother's families, with this reason and that reason. His two stepdaughters are even more outrageous; they even want my things."

To be honest, the old man's favoritism is indeed enviable.

He would be jealous if he didn't favor his own daughter.

Ever since Lin Yuexi returned to Beijing, the old man has been buying her things non-stop. Moreover, the old man has high standards; he feels that ordinary items on the market are not good enough for his beloved granddaughter, and he only buys famous brands.

For example, a complete set of diamond jewelry worn by the former queen of Country Y, and sapphire jewelry unique to Saudi Arabia, etc.

The old man has money and extensive connections. He can get whatever he wants with just a phone call, things that others may never even see or hear about.

So, the old man bought a lot of things for his beloved grandson, always saying that his precious baby would definitely like them. This made the elders think that Lin Yuexi liked those things. Several times when Old Zhou went abroad for visits, he would bring back some local specialties for Lin Yuexi.

And then there's Huo Han's shameless scavenging everywhere...

As a result, everyone in the circle knew that Lin Yuexi had a lot of good stuff.

"What?"

Upon hearing that they were going to take his beloved grandson's things, the old man immediately became furious.

"Just a couple of days ago, my sister-in-law brought her eldest daughter to my house. She said her eldest daughter was going to attend some kind of charity auction organized by Hua Yingyu from the Hua family. Her eldest daughter didn't have anything worthwhile to offer, so she asked Hongying to bring one or two of her baby's unwanted items to make her look good."

"She said that any one of our precious baby's things is worth a fortune, and that our precious baby isn't lacking in those things." Leng Zhi was really angry this time, and for the first time, she became a gossip in front of the old man.

Kong Liping's attitude at the time was infuriating, and what she said implied that her family had taken advantage of the old man, and that if they were sensible, they should have shared some of the things with everyone earlier.

Are you crazy? The old man dotes on his precious child, and the things he buys are for the precious child. Regardless of whether it's right or wrong, what does this have to do with the rest of his family?
It's impossible for Guaibao to give away the things the old man gave her to other people, and they wouldn't covet Guaibao's things either.

You, an aunt and step-cousin separated by a house, how dare you covet the things the old man gave to our precious baby?
They act like it's all perfectly normal.

His wife had already dealt with the matter [by kicking the person out], and Leng Zhi didn't intend to bother the old man any further. The old man meant well, and if he couldn't accept this kindness and had to make a scene in front of the old man, then he would be a terrible son.

But who told his elder brother to also try to use his daughter? He only tried to sow discord and didn't take direct action; that was already showing consideration for their brotherhood.

The old man's face darkened as expected. He glared at Leng Zhi with a look of disappointment and then grabbed the phone and dialed a number.

"Hey, Mr. Zhou, it's me, Lao Leng."

"Yes, yes, I've already kicked Leng Zhan out of the house. From now on, you don't need to worry about me when it comes to things related to him."

I don't know what the other person said, but the old man's gloom vanished, and he raised his head and laughed heartily and triumphantly.

He laughed for more than ten seconds before he could barely hold it in, his lips agape. But what came out was very 'self-deprecating': "Not at all, it's all because of the good training you and Elder Long have given her. But you're right, that child is just too patriotic. When she gets busy, she always forgets that she's not feeling well. Don't worry, I feel sorry for her too, and I will definitely remind her more often."

Leng Zhi rolled his eyes. Well, the only person in the world who could make the old man's attitude change so drastically and boast in this tone is his daughter.

"Really? It's already in the experimental stage?"

The old man suddenly stood up and solemnly assured the person on the other end of the phone, "Don't worry, no one on my side will try to hold Academician Lin back."

The old man's sudden action made Leng Zhi stand up straight, tense, like a soldier ready for battle.

"clear."

"it is good."

"I know."

After the old man hung up the phone, Leng Zhi was about to speak when the old man started dialing again, so Leng Zhi could only shut his mouth and wait silently.

Watching the old man make nine phone calls in a row, from Old Zhou at the top to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs at the bottom, Leng Zhi suddenly felt a little guilty.

This time, it seems his older brother really has no future.

Could it be because of the complaint he filed?

Zhang Hongying, who was knitting on the sofa, glared at him speechlessly. "Do you think Dad doesn't know anything? It's just that Dad only turned a blind eye before because my older brother and the others hadn't crossed him. This time, my older brother actually tried to use Guabao to threaten Dad. Putting aside Guabao's position in Dad's heart, just considering the impact this matter has on our whole family, if Dad doesn't make a statement, our family might not be able to keep Guabao."

With a talent like Guabao, how could the higher-ups allow anyone to hold her back?

Don't forget, the baby isn't their biological child but adopted. Regardless of their own feelings, from an outsider's perspective, this relationship can be broken up.

Besides, after going through those years of constant disruptions, even if they were biological children, what difference would it make? Couldn't the relationship still be severed?
Leng Zhi sat down opposite Zhang Hongying, feeling somewhat exhausted. "What on earth is my brother thinking? I used to think he was mediocre but at least pragmatic. Now I just can't understand him at all."
