Golden Years in the World of Film and Television

"Why should I mind?"

Han Tao smiled slightly, interlocked his fingers with Zhong Xiaoqin, and said sincerely, "Actually, I'm so happy. Due to some special reasons, I grew up with my grandparents. Now I have my parents to live with me. It's really a happy thing.

Besides, Xiaoqin can't bear to leave you. I heard Gu Jia say that she always loved going home. If we live together, wouldn't that satisfy her wish? I'm afraid it will tire the two elders out, as they will have to take care of both their daughter and their grandchildren in the future."

Han Tao's words made Zhong Xiaoqin blush. She couldn't help but roll her eyes at him and said, "Oh, you're disgusting! Who wants to give birth to your child?"

However, Zhong's mother felt that this happiness came too suddenly. Before, Chen Yu did not welcome her to visit their home often. Every time she went to help them clean the room and bring them delicious food, he showed some dissatisfaction. So when she heard Han Tao's answer, Zhong's mother was a little unconvinced.

"Xiao Han, are you really willing for us to move there? You're not just trying to make us happy, are you?"

"Of course not, Auntie. I really want you to move over because the nature of my job requires me to travel frequently. When I get busy, I can't stay home for many days a month. If you move over, Xiaoqin will have someone to keep her company so she won't be lonely."

"Okay, okay, we're relieved with your words. I'll definitely go over when Xiaoqin really gets pregnant!"

Mother Zhong nodded slightly. The more she looked at her new son-in-law Han Tao, the more satisfied she became. Although she also liked Chen Yu very much, her daughter was divorced and now she was together with Han Tao, so she had no choice but to change herself.

Chapter 599 Zhong Xiaoqin's Impulsiveness

After staying in the hospital for more than an hour, everyone had finished discussing the issues they needed to discuss. As it was getting late, Han Tao and Wang Manni said goodbye so that they could stay with Zhong Xiaoqin's family to talk about their true feelings.

Mother Zhong happily sent the two of them to the exit of the inpatient building. Zhong Xiaoqin also followed her mother downstairs, and approached Wang Manni with a relaxed look and whispered to her.

I don't know what the two of them were talking about, but they were laughing quite loudly. From this, it can be seen that the recognition from their parents made Zhong Xiaoqin completely put aside her worries and regain her carefree mentality.

Mother Zhong rolled her eyes at her daughter who was muttering to Wang Manni and giggling at the same time, and couldn't help but tell Han Tao:

"Xiao Han, although we didn't give Xiaoqin a rich and luxurious life, her father and I have never let her suffer since she was a child.

Especially her father, who has always pampered and protected her. He really holds her in his hands for fear of dropping her, and holds her in his mouth for fear of melting her. He has spoiled her, otherwise she would not be like a child at the age of thirty.

Now that you two are together, I only ask that you be more tolerant of her. If she does anything wrong, don't argue with her. Just call me and I'll teach her a lesson."

"Auntie, Xiaoqin isn't as willful as you say. At best, she's a bit more Buddhist. But I think it's great that she can always retain this innocence."

Han Tao smiled slightly, knowing that Mother Zhong was worried that the gap between them was too big and that their relationship would be unstable, so he continued to respond seriously:

"Actually, you and uncle don't have to worry. I like Xiaoqin as a person, including her strengths and weaknesses, so you can rest assured.

I can't guarantee anything else, but I can still be nice to her, tolerate her, love her, and understand her.

And I can say responsibly that Xiaoqin will never have to worry about the daily grind of life, nor will she have any worries about her work. "

Hearing Han Tao's promise, Zhong Xiaoqin's mother smiled and nodded. "Okay, then I'll leave Xiaoqin to you. Actually, your uncle and I are very relieved. It's just that I'm old and like to nag a little!"

Han Tao understood Zhong's mother's personality better, so he smiled and sighed, "The happiest thing in life is to have someone nagging you. When I was a child, I envied my classmates the most because they had their parents nagging them when they got home.

Although they all dislike it, who would have thought that as they grow older, perhaps because of studies, work, or life, when this nagging becomes increasingly distant from us, what they most look forward to is someone nagging them when they get home.

"Xiao Han, you are a very reasonable child. You are so understanding at such a young age. Auntie likes you very much. Come home often and I will make delicious food for you."

Seeing that Han Tao had made his mother happy and couldn't stop laughing, Zhong Xiaoqin stopped muttering to Wang Manni and rolled her eyes at Han Tao.

"Okay, okay, you've been busy all day, go back and rest. Remember to send Manny back with you. Bye!"

"Then I'm leaving, Xiaoqin. We'll chat via text later. Bye, Auntie!"

"Auntie, please stay. If there are any problems with Uncle, please ask Xiaoqin to call me. Although Uncle is basically fine, don't rush to discharge him from the hospital. It's safer to observe him for a few more days."

"Okay, thank you, Xiao Han. You and Manny should be careful on your journey. Goodbye!"

After watching Han Tao and Wang Manni get into the car, and until the black Pullman drove away from the hospital, Mother Zhong took her daughter Zhong Xiaoqin back and lectured her:

"Zhong Xiaoqin, there's no one else here now. Tell me what's going on with you guys?"

Hearing this, Zhong Xiaoqin took her mother's arm and asked in confusion, "Mom, what's going on? Didn't I explain it clearly just now?"

"What's wrong with you? I gave birth to you, how could I not know you? This is not your character at all!"

Mother Zhong glared at her daughter Zhong Xiaoqin and continued with a serious expression, "Don't try to fool me. Although there is indeed a problem between you and Chen Yu, you got a new boyfriend shortly after your divorce and even accepted his house. This matter is definitely not as simple as you just said."

"It's that simple. What else do you think is going on? Do you really think I got divorced because of cheating?"

As she spoke, Zhong Xiaoqin stamped her feet in anger, looked at her mother with an aggrieved expression, and said coquettishly:

"Everything I said was true. Not a single word was a lie. Although Han Tao and I knew each other before, it wasn't what you guessed..."

After returning to the outside of the ward, Mother Zhong listened to her story and glared at Zhong Xiaoqin again.

"So, you two are already together, right? So he gave you a property in the Riverside Building, right?"

"I didn't want it, but I can't still live there after divorcing Chen Yu. What would that mean? So I..."

The more Zhong Xiaoqin spoke, the softer her voice became, until it was barely as soft as a mosquito's hum. In fact, she didn't know why she had accepted it for some unknown reason.

She has always been a woman who doesn't care much about money. After marrying Chen Yu, the financial power was in Chen Yu's hands, and she never asked how much money the family had.

Because Zhong Xiaoqin has hardly ever left Shanghai since she was a child. She studied and worked locally and was a good girl in the family. Although her family was not wealthy, her parents were civil servants and she had no shortage of money.

Moreover, Zhong Xiaoqin has never been in a relationship. Her blind date Chen Yu is her first love. After they got married, they lived their lives according to the routine without many surprises. Therefore, Zhong Xiaoqin is not materialistic or strong-willed, and at the age of 30, she still maintains the innocence of a little girl.

Seeing her daughter's behavior, Zhong's mother said with dissatisfaction: "Louder! Am I that scary? I scared you so much that you dare not speak!"

"I said I didn't know why I accepted it. Maybe this is true love. There's no logic to it. I just felt that it was our home and the safe haven he gave me, so I didn't refuse."

Zhong Xiaoqin was no longer hesitant. She would have to deal with her mother sooner or later anyway, so she spoke out her true thoughts openly.

Mother Zhong poked her forehead with her finger and couldn't help but say, "You, although a man's property is the most basic guarantee of life, after all, you are not married, how can you accept it so easily!

A house in the Riverside Building, over 120 square meters, would cost at least tens of millions. If someone who doesn't know you hears about it, they'll gossip about you and think you're materialistic."

Hearing this, Zhong Xiaoqin sighed and talked about her understanding after the failure of this relationship:

"Mom, I never thought that money was important before, but now I think it is quite important. The important thing is that it can make people live a relaxed life.

I have never had any concept of money. My salary card is in Chen Yu's hands, and I ask him for all the money I need to spend. But do you know that sometimes I have to borrow even 20 yuan for emergencies?

Although Chen Yu works at a TV station and sounds very glamorous, he actually doesn't make much money. Chen Xu asks him for money every few days, and Chen Yu has always wanted to buy a house for his mother, so he is so disgusted with me wanting a child.

When I first got pregnant, I thought about quitting my job and becoming a full-time mother, but do you know what Chen Yu said?

He said that even if I decided to have the baby, I couldn’t quit my job because he felt he couldn’t support both of us.”

The Zhong family is considered a middle-class family in Shanghai. They own a house and a car, and the house is an old villa in Shanghai. Such family background and consumption concept are the result of the hard work of several generations.

Therefore, Zhong Xiaoqin, who grew up in such a family, was not only rich in material terms, but also in spiritual terms.

But neither Zhong Xiaoqin nor Zhong's father and mother despised Chen Yu for his poor family background. Instead, they were particularly impressed by his career and abilities.

It is precisely this education that abandons the sense of superiority, knows how to appreciate the shining points of others, does not cover up for others' shortcomings, and does not spoil children that has allowed Zhong Xiaoqin to develop a gentle character.

It is also because of this that Zhong Xiaoqin and Chen Yu have a big disagreement on the issue of having children. Zhong Xiaoqin likes children and does not worry about not being able to raise them well.

Chen Yu, a child from a poor family who had to grow up early, has always been afraid of raising children. He was afraid that his children would repeat his mistakes. This psychological shadow was formed in childhood, which shows the influence of the original family.

"I didn't expect there were so many problems between you two. Forget it, you should make your own decisions. Your father and I can't be with you forever.

I hope Xiao Han can give you the life you want, and not end up like Chen Yu, who promised to love you forever, but ended up with a messy life and ended up like this. "

"Mom, the past is the past. It's impossible for Chen Yu and I to be together. Let's not mention him anymore!"

"Okay, Mom won't mention it anymore. Let's part ways amicably. We can't interfere in your affairs as young people."

Mother Zhong nodded, then looked at her daughter Zhong Xiaoqin and continued, "As for the house, since you've already accepted it, it's not easy to return it. After all, you've already done it, and it seems unkind.

Fortunately, you are the only child in our family. Everything in the house is yours. When your father is discharged from the hospital, we will transfer the old house to your name. We cannot let others look down on us. What Xiao Han gave you is given by him, and what you have is yours.

We don't have any other extravagant hopes for the future, we just hope that you can be happy and healthy.

Of course, we hope that you will work hard and have grandchildren while your father and I are still young and can help you take care of your children. You should know that our colleagues of the same age already have grandchildren! "

"Mom, we haven't even started yet, why are you talking about the child again? I'm ignoring you!"

Zhong Xiaoqin blushed at what her mother said. She quickly let go of her mother's arm and walked into the VIP ward with a blushing face.

However, her mind was filled with every detail of how she met Han Tao, how they got to know each other, and then how they fell in love, including the ups and downs of life.

She felt that her first thirty years were like a romance drama, which gave her the urge to write it into a novel and post it online.

Chapter 600 Back to Ode to Joy

After leaving the hospital, Han Tao sent Wang Manni back to Grand Hyatt Mansion, during which he explained that he was very busy recently, including that a new business would be opening tomorrow, so he could not stay with her in Grand Hyatt Mansion.

After listening to Han Tao's explanation, Wang Manni said it was okay and she could understand. Her only request was that he could spend more time with her after he was done with his work.

Han Tao nodded and agreed to this small request. After the car parked, he personally saw Wang Manni off. After watching her happily walk into the lobby, he told Xiwa to return to the Ode to Joy community.

Half an hour later, the doorbell of Room 2001, Building 19 of Ode to Joy rang. Fan Shengmei, who was taking a flower petal bath inside, heard the ring and went to check the situation wrapped in a bath towel.

Seeing from the monitor that the person outside the door was Han Tao, Fan Shengmei suppressed her excitement, folded the bath towel and wrapped it around her again, and then opened the door.

It is said that mature women know how to grasp men's aesthetic points best. Although she simply folded it, the bath towel barely covered the base of her thighs, which was much sexier than before.

Han Tao looked at the beauty emerging from the bath and said with a smile, "Hello, Xiaomei, I just sent a message to Guan Guan. She said she was over there, so I came over. Are you guys coming to take a bath together?"

Fan Shengmei had a gentle smile on her face. She covered her chest with her left hand, took the gift box from Han Tao with her right hand, and responded:

"Guan Guan and Xiao Qiu just finished washing up and went upstairs to change clothes. Didn't you message me saying we should have a midnight snack together? I guess they need to clean up and dress up for a while.

You've been busy on a business trip for so many days, and you're busy working right after you get back. You must be very tired. Sit here and rest for a while. I'll change clothes and go up with you right away. These are all gifts I bought for Guan Guan, right? "

“Not all of it is for Guan Guan!”

Han Tao closed the door and watched her put the things on the coffee table. He shook his head and said, "There are some for you and Xiao Qiu. I had them put labels on the bags. You can divide them up later."

"It's so good! I didn't expect that there's one for me and the little earthworm. Is this a surprise?"

Fan Shengmei looked at Han Tao and winked charmingly, her attitude almost making the temptation clear.

Han Tao walked over and said, "It's not really a surprise, but I did put a lot of thought into choosing the gift. I just don't know if you like it."

Upon hearing this, Fan Shengmei took two steps forward, hugged Han Tao's waist and said, "Thank you for still thinking of me. I like anything you give me!"

Feeling the passion of the beautiful woman in his arms, Han Tao gently stroked her smooth back and said, "I just got back from a business trip. Don't play with fire, or you will suffer the consequences."

Knowing that Han Tao had understood her hint, Fan Shengmei moved her white and tender little hands, raised her head, looked at him with her misty eyes and said:

"You will bear the consequences at your own risk? Don't try to scare me. I really want to know what the consequences will be."

Han Tao didn't say anything. Wang Manni and Jiang Nansun were still a little uncomfortable in the car before, and they were interrupted by someone in the middle. Zhu Suosuo and Jiang Nansun were both pregnant again.

So without having enough fun, Han Tao lowered his head and kissed her. His lips moved down along the fair and slender neck, brushing against the delicate collarbone, causing the plump body wrapped in the pure white bath towel to heat up rapidly.

Fan Shengmei closed her eyes slightly, her face flushed, and leaned weakly on Han Tao, whispering:

"Come to the bathroom. You've been busy all day. Take a bath and relax. I'll help you loosen up your muscles."

After hearing her say that, Han Tao tasted it briefly, and without any further ado, he directly picked up the considerate Fan Shengmei and walked towards the bathroom.

You know, Han Tao's body and organs have been strengthened many times, and are no longer comparable to those of ordinary people, so he is not so satisfied most of the time, unless it is the case of a lifelong good sister, he is restrained at other times.

When they got into the bathtub, Fan Shengmei was still staring at the handsome face in front of her in fascination. In fact, she herself didn't know why she liked Han Tao. Even though she knew that he was a promiscuous man, she still couldn't control herself.

Although this is directly related to Han Tao's wealth, status, generosity, gentleness and consideration, etc., she likes the man in front of her definitely not just because of his money.

Seeing her staring at him in a daze, Han Tao gently put Fan Shengmei into the water, a smile on his lips, and forcefully pulled off the bath towel wrapped around Fan Shengmei. Ignoring her screams, he asked:

"You started the fire, so you have to put it out. How long have Guan Guan and the others been up there? Will they come down to look for you?"

Hearing this, Fan Shengmei protected her naked, curvaceous body while blushing slightly as she responded:

"It's okay. I said I'd go straight up after I shower. Besides, they both have to dress up. I guess they won't come down until I'm back in an hour."

Time passed, and Fan Shengmei lay on Han Tao's chest, her face flushed and her eyes watery, a satisfied smile on her lips as she said:

"You go upstairs first. I need to calm down for a while before going upstairs. Otherwise, Guan Guan and the others will think too much about my current state."

Holding the voluptuous Fan Shengmei in his arms, Han Tao kissed her and said, "Xiaomei, you are such a considerate and good sister. Guan Guan and Xiao Qiu are so lucky to have a best friend like you."

Hearing Han Tao say this, Fan Shengmei looked up at him and said with some sadness: "What kind of good sister am I?

I am a bad woman. I know that Guan Guan likes you so much, but I still stay with you. I feel guilty every time I see Guan Guan.

But I just can't let you go, and I can't bear to let go of my feelings and attachment to you. Not only am I not a good sister, I'm also a bad woman, a bad woman who seduces my best friend's boyfriend.

So all I can do is not to cause you any trouble. I know I am not worthy of you, and I can accept you being with Guan Guan, as long as you can think of me occasionally. "

"Don't let your imagination run wild. You're different from Guan Guan and the others, and you're also unique to me."

Seeing that Fan Shengmei was becoming increasingly sentimental, Han Tao lowered his head and kissed her lips, then changed the subject and asked, "By the way, is everything ready at the coffee shop?"
