Finally, the whole family was gathered. Whether they were working or not, they all came back to welcome Zhang Han back. On the dining table, in addition to the more than ten sumptuous dishes that Mother He had prepared in the morning, there were also white wine, red wine, beer, and drinks. It seemed that they would get drunk at noon today.
Zhang Han opened a bottle of white wine and was about to pour it for Father He, but Father He stopped him with his hand."I still have to go to work in the afternoon. We detectives have a rule that no one is allowed to drink at noon. I have to set an example, right?”
"Aiyo, Dad, you're in charge of the station. Aren't you the one who set the rules?，Who are you afraid of? "What's there to be afraid of if you drink a little? Who can still check on you…" Zhang Han said aimlessly and wanted to pour one for Father He.
Father He glared at him and scolded,""What do you know? Since there are rules in the unit, everyone has to follow them seriously. With your sloppy mindset, you won't be able to do well in any unit!”
"Alright, alright! I can't do well, I can't do well, it's fine as long as you do well. Why don't you order beer?”Zhang Han said as he prepared to open another bottle of beer for him.
"No, beer is still wine, right?! I'll just drink some drinks with Tao Tao, okay, Tao Tao?”After saying that, Father He turned around and smiled at Tao Tao.
"Okay, Grandpa, I want to get drunk with you.”Tao Tao said happily and raised a glass full of fruit juice.
Zhang Han saw that the white wine could not be promoted, so he simply put the white wine aside. He picked up a bottle of red wine. When he was about to give some to Mrs. He, he noticed that she kept looking around.
"Mom, what are you looking out for? Isn't everyone in our family already here? Why are you still looking around?"
"Oh, it's nothing. I keep feeling that there's a guest coming.”Mother He said with a smile.
He Li seemed to have thought of something when she reminded him. As she ate, she asked,"By the way, why didn't you bring Li Zhengwan here?”
Zhang Han thought to himself,'You're just bringing up a sore spot.' He replied casually,"Why should I bring her?"
"Aiyo, why are you like this? It was not easy to get her, so she had to bring her home to show her parents, right?”He Li turned around, seeking her parents 'verbal support.
"Forget it. What do you mean by that? I saw it all at Wu Tong's house. They put their arms around each other's shoulders and showed off their love. They almost lived together.”He Li added fuel to the fire. She still hoped that the two of them would be together. At least, it would reduce the contact between Li Zhengwan and Jin Xiaomao!
Mother He's eyes lit up when she heard that. She immediately continued He Li's topic and said,"Hanhan, I'm telling you, we don't count on you for your studies or your career. You're just like that anyway. If you can find a girlfriend so quickly, get married and have children, we will be very supportive.”
"Mom, look at what you're saying. No matter what, I'm an overseas returnee. It's not difficult for me to find a decent job. When I came back this time, I was prepared to work hard and make great achievements. Whatever marriage and children, I would put them aside first. I wanted to focus on my career.，Do you understand?" Zhang Han spoke with assurance, completely like a young man with aspirations.
"Come on, Hanhan, you can lie to others, but why did you lie to your mother? It's not certain whether our country will recognize your academic qualifications from the school you studied at abroad. When we asked you to study abroad, it was because we wanted you to go out and not hang out with your friends at home every day, lest you learn bad things.”Mrs. He took a sip of red wine and continued," Now that you're back, it doesn't matter whether you work or not. Your father and I can't count on you either. Your task now is to find a partner and get married and have children. That way, we'll be satisfied.”
Zhang Han was choked by Mother He's words and hurriedly went to help Father He speak up for him.""Dad, look at my mom. It's fine if she doesn't support my career, but she's still making sarcastic remarks about me.”
Father He laughed and said,""If you want to find a good job, I will support you. However, I think your mother's words are very reasonable. Think about it carefully.”
He Li laughed gloatingly while Mother He ordered Zhang Han,"Hanhan, I don't care what your girlfriend does for a living. Take some time and quickly bring her over for us to take a look.”
Zhang Han wanted to say something, but the doorbell rang.
A smile that was hard to notice appeared on Mother He's face. She quickly asked Zhang Han to open the door.
The door opened, and Xi Mengyan was standing outside with a big bouquet of flowers.
He Li stole a glance at Mother He. From her expression, she knew that she must have called him over.
"Aiyo, I was wondering who it was. So it's Mr. Xi. Are you here to get beaten up?”Zhang Han remembered how he had bullied his sister in the past and how he had extorted three million yuan from her during the divorce. He was furious.
" Hanhan, don't mess around," Mother He quickly chided." He's Taotao's father after all, and I was the one who called him to invite him over. Hurry up and let him in."”
"How could you let him come over? Don't forget how he hurt my sister in the past and that three million yuan. If I had that three million yuan, I would have earned a lot of money.”Zhang Han couldn't understand and said indignantly.
"What do you know? This time, your brother-in-law came back to reconcile with your sister. He already knows that he was wrong and is very sincere. I think we have to give him this chance, right?”Mother He said and hurriedly called Xi Mengyan to come in.
Xi Mengyan walked into the house and raised the flowers in front of He Li."Li Li, these flowers are for you. I apologize to you in front of the whole family today. I've let you down in the past. Please forgive me. I hope you can give me a chance to return to you and Tao Tao's side and fulfill my responsibilities as a husband and father. I really owe you too much in this regard.”
He Li reached out and pulled his flowers to the ground. He said,"Don't waste your time. I have no attachment or feelings for you now. If you feel that you owe me, you don't have to, because it's already over between us. However, if you feel that you owe Tao Tao, then you can use all your methods to compensate her. I won't stop you.”
"Isn't it the best outcome if you two can get back together? Li Li! Look, you have a family now, and Taotao has a father. Moreover, he's a biological father. This is called reuniting. Isn't this a good thing?”Mother He became anxious and quickly gave Father He a look." Damn old man, hurry up and persuade Li Li. Don't let her be so willful."”
Father He stood up and said,""The children are already so old. Some things can be decided by them themselves. We don't have to care about them. I still have to go to work in the afternoon. I'll go back. You guys eat and chat. I'm leaving.”
"Dad, I'm almost done eating. Let's go together. I'll drop you off at the station later.”He Li stood up." Hanhan, Mom, and Taotao, we're leaving. You guys take your time to eat."”
With that, the two of them took their things and walked out of the living room.
"Xi, why are you so shameless? My sister is already unwilling to be with you, but you still shamelessly want to get back together. Now, my dad and sister have left because of you. Are you happy?”Zhang Han was displeased. He had ruined a family gathering just like that.
"Stop it, stop it. Xiao Xi, you haven't eaten yet, right? Why don't you eat here before leaving?”Mother He said to Xi Mengyan awkwardly.
"Thank you, Mom. I won't eat." Xi Mengyan said.
"Who's your mother? Is that what you should call her? You shameless bastard, if you don't want to eat, get out of here!”Zhang Han roared.
"Uncle, why are you so cruel to my father?”Tao Tao looked at her and pouted. She looked so pitiful. She was like a sweet cotton candy that melted Zhang Han in an instant.
Zhang Han could only lower his voice and say to Tao Tao,"Tao Tao, Uncle has such a loud voice. I'm not angry at your father. My voice has always been this loud, understand?”
Tao Tao nodded. He didn't know if he really understood or if he was pretending.
"Mom, I'm leaving." Xi Mengyan stood up and said to Tao Tao," Tao Tao, I'll visit you again in a few days, okay?”
Tao Tao nodded, and Mother He chased after him, whispering to Xi Mengyan,""I've already done my best for you. It seems that enough is enough between the two of you!”
Xi Mengyan sighed and left the He family with a heavy heart.
Early the next morning, Zhang Han was already waiting in the living room. When he saw He Li walking over, he quickly came over and asked,"Sis, I've moved back too. Look, shouldn't you prepare the car you promised me?”
He Li glanced at him, took out a bunch of keys from his bag, and threw them over. He said,"I've already prepared the car for you last night and got someone to drive it back. Go take a look. It's parked outside the courtyard.”
Zhang Han jumped up happily when he heard that. He excitedly came over and hugged He Li."Thank you. My sister is still the best to me!”
After saying that, he quickly ran out to see what kind of car she had bought for him.
Outside the courtyard, a brand new yellow Chery QQ was parked there. It was very eye-catching. Zhang Han thought he was seeing things. He pressed the remote control of the car in his hand and the car made a beeping sound.
Zhang Han quickly ran back to the living room. He threw the key and asked angrily,"Sister, my dear sister, you bought me such a car?”
"Yes, why, can't I? Back then, I only promised to buy you a car, but I didn't promise to buy you any brand of car, right?”He Li said as he packed his things.
" I thought you would buy me a BMW or something. I didn't expect it to be such a small QQ account. I…" Zhang Han was speechless.
"It's just a car. It's just a means of transportation. Don't care what brand it is or how big it is, okay?”He Li was still packing.
Zhang Han pursed his lips and said," You make it sound nice. Why did you buy a BMW that costs millions? Why didn't you buy QQ?"”
"I'm different from you. I want to talk about business. If I don't have a good car, everyone will doubt the company's strength.”He Li picked up his bag and prepared to go to work.
"Sister, what you're doing is too outrageous. It's also..."
Zhang Han wanted to continue but was interrupted by He Li."Brother, do you want it or not? If you don't want it, I'll give it to Jin Xiaomao. Stop nagging…"
Zhang Han swallowed and said helplessly,"Alright, I want it. I want it. A rotten pickled vegetable is better than a bowl of white wine! A car is better than nothing!"
" You're a promising child…" He Li said and went to work.
