in the study/evening/room
(Lin Zhicheng, accompanied by Hua Wenbin and Zhou Wenru, came to Hu Yongnian's study.)
Nian: It's so late, what do you three want from me?
(The three of them remained silent. At this moment, Zhou Wenru pulled Lin Zhicheng's hand.)
Ru (softly): Why don't you say anything? Hurry up and say it!
Cheng (stammering): Dad…I... I... I want to apologize to you. I know I acted out of character again tonight. I messed up a good ceremony and caused everyone to be humiliated in front of so many guests. I'm really sorry.
Nian: Forget it, forget it. Let's not talk about what happened tonight. Actually, I don't want to pursue anything. To be honest, although your "accident" made me very angry, you can take the initiative to admit your mistake now. That means you have repentance. Anyway, you just have to be more careful in the future.
Cheng (delighted):"Does that mean you don't blame me, Dad?"
Nian (Xianghe): Of course.
Cheng (overjoyed):"Haha, I told you, Dad is the most generous, tolerant, and magnanimous person in the world. He is also the greatest father in the world."
Nian: " Don't be too smug. Although I forgive you, it doesn't mean that your grandmother will forgive you. I'm afraid that her impression of you will be greatly reduced after what you did tonight."
Cheng: Actually, you can't blame me. Who can control this "accident"? Actually, it can't be called an "accident", because I was deliberately murdered by others.(Furrowing his eyebrows and glaring angrily) Some people just don't like me and try their best to make me a joke.
Nian: " You should be talking about your auntie, right? Actually, I know that she's the one behind this. But no matter what, you can't throw the cake at her in front of everyone. You should bear with it at an appropriate time. Think about it. It's already embarrassing enough that you ruined the cake, and then you even used violence on your auntie. What will the guests think when they see this scene? They will definitely think that our family is a mess. Isn't this seriously damaging our family's reputation?"
Bin: Dad, actually I was wrong too. I knew Cheng and auntie didn't get along. I should have kept them far away. In that case, auntie wouldn't have had the chance to make a move.
For example, Wenbin, don't blame yourself. If auntie wanted to murder Ah Cheng, she would have a way to do it. It's useless even if you keep them far away.
Nian (angry): This Cheng Fang only knows how to stir up trouble all day long. I will teach her a lesson one day.
Bin: " Dad, don't be angry. Don't hurt your relationship with auntie because of this. As the saying goes, harmony is the most important thing in a family.
Nian (smiling happily):"Wenbin, you're really a sensible child. Ah Cheng, you have to learn from Wenbin. Don't be impatient all day. If you don't change your temper, you'll be the one at a disadvantage."
(Lin Zhicheng nodded in shame.)
Bin: Actually, I'm not a sensible child. Although I keep saying that everything will be fine if the family is harmonious, I often quarrel with my mother all day long because of marriage. In the face of the friction between love and kinship, I will become very impatient and very annoyed. Sometimes, I don't know what kind of person I am.
Nian: " I understand your frustration, your pain, and your helplessness, but don't worry. I will definitely ensure your marriage. No matter what your mother and grandmother tell you, just listen to them. Don't make a big fuss with them. Otherwise, you'll get out of hand. By then, it'll be even harder for me. Well, it's late now. You'd better rest quickly. I'm tired after a whole day. I should rest too."
All right, Dad, good night
Cheng Bin: Good night, Dad.
Good night
(Then, the three of them left the study. Just as they stepped out of the study, Hua Wenbin's phone rang. There was a new message on the screen. Hua Wenbin opened it and saw that it was a message from Xu Zhilin. The content of the message was: Dear, are you free tomorrow morning? If you have time, come to my house to find me. My home address is: Tseung Kwan O ×× × ××)
Bin (happy):"Sure, Zhilin sent me a text message. He asked us to go to his house tomorrow morning to look for him."
Cheng (excited): Is that true? That's great. I can finally see him. Haha, I'll be so happy that I can't sleep tonight.
Bin: Me too. Oh, I have to reply to his message.
(After that, Hua Wenbin replied to Xu Zhilin's text message.)
。。。。。。。。。。。。
Xu Zhilin's house/Morning/Inside
(Lin Zhicheng, Hua Wenbin, Zhou Wenru, and Zhang Qing arrived at Xu Zhilin's house. Not long after they pressed the doorbell, Xu Zhilin came out to open the door.)
Lin (happy): Ah Cheng, Ah Bin, you're finally here.
Cheng (Excited): Ah Lin (then hugs Xu Zhilin), long time no see, I missed you so much
Lin: Me too. By the way, are you guys here for a vacation in Hong Kong?
Bin: It's a trip. We came to Hong Kong to attend my father's company's 10th anniversary celebration.
Lin: Didn't you say that your father was an ordinary employee? How did he manage to set up a company in Hong Kong?
Bin: My old father was just my adoptive father. The one who set up the company in Hong Kong is my biological father. It's a long story. I'll tell you slowly later.
Cheng: Anyway, now Ah Ru is Wenbin's biological sister, and I am now their father's adopted son. This story is very, very complicated. It's simply bizarre.
Lin: It seems that you guys have really had a lot of twists and turns in your stories. Alright, don't stand at the door and talk. Come in and sit down.
(Then, they entered the house one after another. After they entered the house, Chen Quanwu came out of the room.)
Wu: Ah Lin, are all your friends here?
Lin: Yeah, they're all here.
Cheng (puzzled): Eh, why is Wu here too?
Lin (with a smile):"Not long after I came back to Hong Kong, Ah Wu also came back. We happened to work in the same company. We are now colleagues."
Bin: But why are you living together? Didn't you say that you live with your uncle?
Lin: My uncle has been transferred to Shanghai by the company. I feel lonely living alone here, so I asked Awu to move in with me.
Cheng: I see. It seems that you have a lot of stories. Come, let's sit down and tell stories.
(After that, they all sat down together to share their stories. Lin Zhicheng and Hua Wenbin told them their "rich family stories" one by one, while Xu Zhilin told them everything that happened after he returned to Hong Kong.)
Lin: I didn't expect you to become the young master of a wealthy family in just a few months. I have to sigh that life is like a play and the world is like chess.
Cheng: Don't think that we'll have a good life just because we've entered a wealthy family. In fact, this is the beginning of a nightmare. We have to face those ghosts and monsters all day long. It's so annoying.
Lin: Cows and monsters? Are you entering a wealthy family or hell?
Bin: Anyway, there is only one sentence: Once we enter the rich family, we are either murdered or our marriage is destroyed. There is almost no peace.
Lin: Your parents don't approve of your marriage?
(Lin Zhicheng and Hua Wenbin nodded in unison.)
Lin: It seems that you have to follow my old path. Fortunately, you still have a chance to fight for it. As for me, I don't know what will happen to my one-year agreement with Zixie (I look disappointed). Now, among the four of us, only you two can persist until now. You have to continue to persist. Don't let your love slip away from your hands.
Two pairs? Ah Wu, did you break up with Zheng Xiaojing too?
Wu: We broke up a long time ago. Otherwise, I wouldn't have chosen to come back to Hong Kong to develop my career.(sigh) Fate brings us together. Fate brings us together. Fate brings us apart. Fate is like water. Many things are destined.
Bin: When we were in university, the four of us were all reunited. I didn't expect that after graduation, the two of you would end up breaking up, and the two of us would fall into a crisis. No wonder people say that love in university is beautiful, but love after entering society is fragile.
Cheng: Speaking of university, I suddenly remember that we used to "break into the office at night" and participate in football matches together. Although some unpleasant things happened at that time, these bits and pieces were connected into a beautiful memory. Oh right, I still remember that I made a big mistake at that time, and Awu helped me.(Looking at Awu) Until now, I still haven't had the chance to repay Awu.
[Wu: It's just a piece of cake. It's not worth mentioning. If I'm a person who favors others and asks for repayment, then I might hold on to her tightly and not let go. I won't let her leave me (There's a hint of depression in my eyes)]
Cheng: Alright, alright, let's not talk about sad topics.(Excited) Do you have any wine here? I really want to drink now. Since we can meet again after a long time, why not get drunk?
For example, you're not allowed to drink. The last time you and Wenbin were drunk, you went crazy. In the end, you were thrown into the swimming pool by the auntie to sober up. Have you forgotten? I don't want to see a repeat of this farce
Qing: Yeah, you guys should restrain yourself a little.
Bin (Smiling):"Ah, sure. We'll just go along with these two women. It seems that we're going to be eaten by them. They'll definitely be the most competent" housekeepers "in the future."
Ru/Qing (Staring at Hua Wenbin, saying in unison): what are you talking about
(Then everyone laughs)
(They talked for the whole morning, reminiscing the past and discussing the vague future, sometimes laughing and sometimes sad.)
。。。。。。。。。。。。
(After a few days of traveling to Hong Kong, Hu Yongnian and his family finally returned to the mainland.)
Hu Yongnian's house/afternoon/inside
(Hu Yongnian and the others entered the house one after another.)
Servant (Greeting him politely): Old Madam, Mr. Hu, First Madam, Second Madam, Cousin Miss, Young Master Hua, Young Master Lin, Miss, you're back. I'll go prepare dinner now.
(Hu Yongnian nodded and the servant left.)
Cheng: It feels so different when I get home. It feels so much better.
Nian (with a faint smile): Are you not comfortable living in that mansion in Hong Kong?
Cheng: That's not what I meant. I just feel a little unaccustomed to the new environment.
Nian: It seems that you are used to living here. However, you will have to move out after you marry Wenru. You will have to adapt to the new environment sooner or later.
(Zheng Wenjun and Grandma's faces darkened when they heard this. Hua Wenbin and Zhou Wenru also felt that the atmosphere was not right. They looked at each other.)
Grandma: Yongnian, Wenjun, Chengfang, come to my room after you put your luggage away. I have something to tell you.
Nian/Jun/Fang:
。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。
Grandma's room/afternoon/inside
Grandma (serious): Yongnian, no matter how much you dote on Lin Zhicheng and how much he has done for the Hu family, you must find a way to make him leave the Hu family.
Nian (surprised): Why? It's fine if you don't approve of his marriage with Ah Ru, but why do you want to drive him out?
Grandma: " Although I don't approve of their marriage, I would have reluctantly accepted him as the young master of the Hu family. But now I feel that he is not only unworthy of being the son-in-law of the Hu family, but also unworthy of being the young master of the Hu family. You saw what happened at the celebration that day. He actually did such a ridiculous thing. It is simply a disgrace to the family. If he continues to stay in the Hu family, our reputation will be ruined by him sooner or later."
Nian: " How can this be? I took him in as a foster son with great fanfare and let him live in our house. Now I'm driving him away like this. What will people say if this gets out? They will definitely think that our family is a mess and say that we are ungrateful."
Jun: Then you can give him money to send him away. Then we won't owe each other anything.
Nian: " Please give Ah Cheng some time. He has already apologized to me for the celebration that day. I can see that he is repentant. In fact, he has already tried very hard to change himself. Don't deny him so quickly."
Fang (sneered):"I really don't dare to imagine what he will become. He's a person who can't be helped. He has no manners and no standards. He's already like this as the young master of the Hu family. If he becomes the son-in-law of the Hu family, wouldn't he have nothing to fear?"
Nian (rolling his eyes at Cheng Fang): Cheng Fang, you'd better not fan the flames. I haven't settled your score with you yet.
(Cheng Fang was silent and only pursed her lips.)
Grandma: " Yongnian, it's okay. Don't be angry with Cheng Fang at this time. Let's discuss the marriage of these young people. Ah Nian, you know that Zhang Qing is infertile. If Wenbin marries him, who will help our Hu family spread the branches and leaves? So you have to talk to Wenbin. Don't let him continue to be infatuated with Zhang Qing."
Nian: " Actually, medical science is so advanced now. We can find a doctor to treat her. It's not a big problem."
Jun: Her infertility is very likely to be incurable. Yongnian, I know that you are more open-minded, but you can't ignore the continuation of the family line. This is related to the well-being of the entire family.
Nian: " You don't have to say anything. Let them decide on their own marriage. As parents, we can only remind them from the side. We can't deliberately interfere. If you continue to take a tough attitude, then it won't be as simple as hurting their harmony. In the end, you might lose them."
Grandma: Yongnian, what do you mean by that? What do you mean by losing them?
Year: "Think about it, it's no longer a feudal society. Young people nowadays won't accept the" orders of their parents and the words of matchmakers ". They only accept free love. However, if you force them too hard, it's hard to guarantee that they will do something out of line. At that time, you might regret it. Therefore, I advise you to put those" old-fashioned "ideas behind you. Many family tragedies are caused by these old-fashioned ideas." I'm sure you don't want to see a tragedy happen, right?
The king said,"Yongnian."
Nian: "Alright, don't say anymore. I have to go back to the company now. Think about what I said (then leave the room)."
Zheng Wenjun and Grandma looked at each other thoughtfully.
。。。。。。。。。。。。。。
Cheng Fang's Room/Afternoon/Inside
Fang: According to the current situation, my mother-in-law and Wenjun are determined to oppose their marriage, but Yongnian is always protecting them. I'm afraid that one day, my mother-in-law and Wenjun will also be swayed. What do you think we should do? That Lin Zhicheng is arrogant and despotic. I get angry when I see him. I don't want him to become my nominal son-in-law.
Mei (thought for a moment):"Aunt, I have a suggestion. Since external forces can't separate them, then we should divide them internally."
Fang (puzzled): What do you mean?
Mei: That means we will sow discord between Ah Cheng and Ah Ru and make them break up. At that time, even if we don't drive them away, Lin Zhicheng might leave the Hu family on his own accord.
Fang (Realization):"That's right, why didn't I think of that? We only targeted the external forces like Grandma before, but why didn't we attack them from within?"
Mei: " I heard from the company that Guo Mingkang once sent flowers to Zhou Wenru, which made Lin Zhicheng furious. It seems that Guo Mingkang is really interested in Zhou Wenru. Then why don't we make use of the situation and cooperate with Guo Mingkang?"
Fang: Alright, let's find a day to ask Guo Mingkang out. I want to discuss countermeasures with him (smirk)
。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。
Western Restaurant/Morning/Inside
(Guo Mingkang and Cheng Fang are sitting face to face.)
Kang (polite): Aunt Fang, may I ask why you asked me out today?
Fang (smiling): About your marriage
Kang (suspicious): My marriage?
Fang: Do you like our Wenru?
Kang: Yes, it's a pity that King Xiang has a dream, the goddess has no heart, and Wenru already has someone in her heart. She won't put me in her heart at all.
Fang: Actually, I also want you to be my son-in-law. Although Wenru is not my biological daughter, I will be happy for her if she can marry a young master of equal status.
Kang: So Aunt Fang also thinks that we are the most compatible.
Fang: Of course, you and that Lin Zhicheng are worlds apart. You look refined, handsome, tall and handsome, while that Lin Zhicheng is vulgar, ignorant, and looks like a hooligan. How can he match our Wenru? The problem now is that he and Wenru are deeply in love. He is your biggest obstacle.
Kang (frowning): This is also my biggest headache. That Lin Zhicheng has already thrown a tantrum at me several times because of Ah Ru. He's even more hooligan than those hooligans. Now I feel a little scared when I see him.
Fang (sinister expression):"Don't be afraid. I will help you, but I need your cooperation. Are you willing to cooperate with me?"
[Kang: Cooperation?] How to cooperate
Fong: I already have a plan
(Guo Mingkang looked at Cheng Fang suspiciously. What was Cheng Fang and Guo Mingkang planning?）
