A man in Handong: living off Zhong Xiaoai

How did it end up with him getting his car involved?

At this moment, Zheng Jindong naturally recalled the grand auto show that Qi Tongwei had showcased during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and for a moment, Zheng Jindong felt like he was about to collapse.

What does this mean?! His own sister has also joined Qi Tongwei's personal "support" collection?

How could this be?! No way! Zheng Jindong was instantly enraged. He decided to punish Qi Tongwei and direct his anger at him right now!

Zheng Jindong took out his phone and called his father.

But the phone was disconnected after only two rings.

What happened? Is it too late? Even so, they shouldn't have hung up on me like that!

Without thinking much, Zheng Jindong took out his phone and pressed the dial button again.

But just like before, the call was disconnected after two rings.

Undeterred, Zheng Jindong called his father a third time.

But the result was still the same; it rang less than two times before being disconnected. 26

Kyoto, inside a mysterious neighborhood.

Madam Zheng looked at her old man, Old Master Zheng.

"Your child called you so late, and you didn't answer? What if something really urgent happened to you?"

Old Zheng looked very unwell; he had a gloomy expression on his face.

"Don't say he's my son. When he decided to go to Handong, he had nothing to do with the Zheng family anymore!"

After hearing what Old Master Zheng said, Madam Zheng lowered her head and remained silent.

Because Madam Zheng knew that her husband wasn't just talking; ever since their son Zheng Jindong went to Handong, he had never answered her calls or even seen her.

He really didn't understand his son. Why hadn't he realized that his old man was very disappointed in him?

Of course, this can't be blamed on my own husband, since offending Professor Zhong is no good for anyone.

She had repeatedly reminded her son not to provoke the Zhong family.

But his son wouldn't listen, insisting that Qi Tongwei wasn't a member of the Zhong family.

Qi Tongwei's wedding was personally arranged by Old Master Zhong, and the person who slept next to Qi Tongwei every day was Old Master Zhong's only daughter.

What exactly is wrong with her son? Why does she think that Qi Tongwei has no relation to the Zhong family?

As Mrs. Zheng was thinking about these things, her phone suddenly rang. She saw that it was her son, Zheng Jindong, calling.

Of course, according to my old man's wishes, he wouldn't let me answer it.

But Zheng Jindong is still his own son, a piece of his own flesh and blood.

Mrs. Zheng was also aware that her son Zheng Jindong's phone and communication devices might have been monitored.

After all, he's currently trapped in Handong and can't leave even if he wanted to.

Seeing her phone ringing incessantly, Mrs. Zheng, unlike her husband, couldn't bear it. Her son calling so late meant something must have happened.

With that thought in mind, Madam Zheng gritted her teeth and pressed the speakerphone button.

Mrs. Zheng thought that as long as she didn't talk about things she shouldn't on the phone, wouldn't that be fine?

If your own son speaks, wouldn't it be better to just pretend you don't understand and not respond?

Soon, his son Zheng Jindong's voice came through the phone.

"Hello?! Mom! Is Dad home?!"

Upon hearing the voice, Mr. Zheng discovered that his wife had actually answered the phone.

In an instant, Old Zheng's eyes widened, and his face turned extremely ugly.

Looking at her husband's expression, Madam Zheng took a deep breath.

"Your dad isn't home, he's still working overtime. What do you want?"

When Mr. Zheng heard that Mrs. Zheng hadn't mentioned him, his expression softened.

Old Zheng is very angry now. She feels that it is all her responsibility as a mother that her son has become so stupid.

Now that everything has been explained, she still answered Zheng Jindong's call. How incredibly stupid!

Back then, she couldn't see her son because if she did, others would think that she supported her son in instigating Mr. Zhong's daughter to divorce.

To put it nicely, it's called "fighting for love," but to put it bluntly, what kind of lowly thing is Zhong Xiaoai, the daughter of Elder Zhong? Why should you fight with Qi Tongwei to snatch her away?

Doesn't Zhong Xiaoai have her own judgment? Doesn't she know who she likes? Why are you trying to steal her away?

Since I couldn't see my son back then, I told my wife that she had to make sure the child stayed with me in Kyoto no matter what.

I gave him countless instructions back then, but what happened? I still sent him to Handong!

Even though her own son, Zheng Jindong, wrote an application to go to Handong, he regretted it in the end and didn't go.

Actually, this isn't a big deal. As long as they don't go to Handong and don't bring the matter to the forefront, the Zheng family can still handle this indirectly.

Now that Zheng Jindong has gone to Handong, it's like he's going to war with Elder Zhong face-to-face. Do you think Elder Zhong will let the Zheng family off the hook? Unless the sun rises in the west!

It's certain that something bad is going to happen to the Zheng family now; the only question is how serious it will be.

Zheng Jindong, on the other end of the phone, sounded extremely anxious after hearing his mother's words.

"Mom, something terrible has happened! Someone else has taken my sister's car. I just called her, and they're slamming on the gas pedal. I can hear the sound of them flooring it!"

Upon hearing this, both Madam Zheng and Old Master Zheng widened their eyes.

What does this mean? Your daughter has a boyfriend? How come you didn't know?

Madam Zheng became somewhat puzzled at this point.

"Jin Dong, how did you find out about your sister? Just from a phone call? Are you sure you didn't mishear?"

Zheng Jindong suddenly became irritable; he seemed extremely anxious.

"What?! It's Qi Tongwei! It's Qi Tongwei driving my sister's car! He's flooring the gas pedal in her car!"

Old Zheng wanted to curse for a second. How the hell did he get involved with Qi Tongwei again?

Didn't my own husband tell me that our daughter was in Kyoto and was just staying at a classmate's house for two days?

How did they end up in Handong? And they even let Qi Tongwei into their car?

What are we going to do? Qi Tongwei is Zhong Lao's son-in-law. If Zhong Lao finds out that his daughter has an affair with his son-in-law, he'll be doomed.

Could this be the method my damned son came up with to get revenge on Zhong Xiaoai?

Oh no, oh no! If Zhong Xiaoai finds out that Qi Tongwei drove her daughter Zheng Mengyan's car behind her back, do you think this will get away with it so easily?

Chapter 388 Can you please leave our family alone?

Old Zheng felt completely dizzy. How could he have given birth to such a wonderful pair of children? What had he done wrong that God was punishing him like this?

Madam Zheng panicked for a moment. She remembered her daughter, who always showed a strong interest in Qi Tongwei and constantly asked her about him. What? Had this girl been so foolish as to let Qi Tongwei into her car? Had her daughter been "stepped on the gas" by him?

"Jin Dong, is your sister in Handong now?"

Zheng Jindong is extremely anxious right now. Isn't it clear what he's said?

Right at this very moment, her younger sister was being taken advantage of by Qi Tongwei.

Why can't my own mother understand?

"Mom! Qi Tongwei has gone too far in bullying the Zheng family! Let Dad teach him a lesson! Mom! He stole my Zhong Xiaoai! Now my sister is someone else's property too! Mom!"

When Mr. Zheng heard his son crying his heart out on the phone, he was so angry that he wanted to hit him with a rolling pin.

Old Zheng forced himself to breathe heavily, trying to calm himself down.

Madam Zheng was speechless. Why was her son crying? She still didn't understand how her perfectly fine daughter had become Qi Tongwei's woman.

"Jin Dong, it's not that I'm scolding you, but you must stay calm in such situations. Tell me, what exactly happened? How did your sister meet Qi Tongwei? And how did Qi Tongwei and your sister get together? Does Zhong Xiaoai know about this?"

Upon hearing this, Old Zhong realized that although his wife was simple-minded, she was still much more normal than the two children, especially Zheng Jindong. So, this question was at least somewhat meaningful.

Zheng Jindong, who was crying and wailing, felt that his mother was just being nosy and had nothing better to do than care about such details at a time like this.

Shouldn't we hurry up and find our fathers to teach Qi Tongwei a lesson?

"Mom! My sister came to Handong a couple of days ago, hoping to mediate between Qi Tongwei and me. She said she'd arrange for Zhong Xiaoai to meet up with me tomorrow so we could talk. But I haven't heard back by this late, so I called to ask, only to find they're together!"

At this point, Zheng Jindong paused for a moment before continuing, "As for Zhong Xiaoai, don't even mention her. She completely indulges Qi Tongwei. Qi Tongwei keeps Zhao Xiaohui and Zhao Xiaoqin, the two daughters of Zhao Lichun, the secretary of the Handong Provincial Party Committee, along with a whole bunch of other people, in his mansion. He lives like an emperor every day at home!"

Upon hearing this, Old Zheng's eyes widened in disbelief. Could such a thing really exist?

If this is true, then this is indeed important news.

If this matter is reported to Professor Zhong, it might actually put Qi Tongwei in a difficult position.

If one's son truly hates Qi Tongwei that much, it wouldn't be a bad idea to tell Zhong Lao about it.

When Madam Zheng heard this, she was shocked. This was outrageous! It had reached a point of utter lawlessness. Qi Tongwei was truly audacious.

If these things are true, then what is Elder Zhong in his eyes? Does he still respect Elder Zhong?

"Jin Dong, I know about this. I will talk to your father. Please calm down and we will find a solution slowly."

After saying this, Mrs. Zheng hung up the phone.

When Zheng Jindong heard his mother hang up the phone, he was completely bewildered. Had his mother even understood what he was saying? His younger sister was "with" someone else!

Are they even their biological children? Why are they all so calm?

After hanging up the phone, Mrs. Zheng looked at Mr. Zheng beside her.

"What do we do now? Our daughter has run off to Qi Tongwei's place!"

Old Zheng took a deep breath.

"Since things have come to this point, we might as well tell Old Zhong about this and let him know what Qi Tongwei has done, so that he can make his own decision."

Madam Zheng frowned.

"Will this work? Zhong Xiaoai tacitly approved it. She knows but doesn't care. If we go to Elder Zhong and bring it up, wouldn't that be humiliating him in public?"

Old Zheng smiled and shook his head.

“Old Zhong is very concerned about his reputation. If I bring this up, he won’t feel that I’m humiliating him; he’ll hate Qi Tongwei even more. Zhong Xiao’ai is Old Zhong’s only precious daughter, pampered since childhood, but now she’s become one of Qi Tongwei’s many collections. What will Old Zhong think?”
