The old man wanted to talk to Zhan Xiuhong alone, which made Zhan Xiuhong even more nervous.

Seeing that Zhan Xiuhong didn't have the courage to talk to the children, the old man didn't get angry. After all, the children had finally returned safely.

If there are any problems, teach them slowly and don't be impatient.

Even though they all look tall and strong, they each have their own weaknesses and problems.

How could he, as a father and a grandfather, not have any patience at all?

Zhan Yan and Zhan Xiucheng looked at each other and nodded to the old man.

As soon as they left, Zhan Xiuhong became even more nervous.

When he came back by himself before, Xiao Yan and his brother were trapped in a third-party base, and he thought the old man would scold him.

He even wanted to stab himself a few times.

But the old man just asked him to stay in the room and not to leave the room at all.

He thought that the old man was waiting for Xiao Yan to complete his cultivation and come back to settle the score with him.

So we are now prepared for the storm.

Unexpectedly, after the old man returned to the room, he personally made him a pot of tea.

It’s still his favorite small green tangerine Pu’er.

This made him inexplicably flattered.

He is the culprit that has made the old man so anxious these days.

How could he deserve to drink the tea brewed by the old man himself?

"Father, I..."

"After you reconcile with Buyan Chengxi, I will be able to leave with peace of mind in the future."

The old man raised his hand and interrupted Zhan Xiuhong.

Just one sentence made Zhan Xiuhong's eyes fill with tears.

"Father, I am the one who should go."

"What nonsense are you talking about! Don't say that again!

You are all my children! You are all my lives.

Everyone has to go one day!

But I want to leave peacefully, and I hope each of you is doing well."

The old man slammed the teacup on the table.

The look in her eyes when she looked at Zhan Xiuhong was not anger, but disapproval of him looking down on her.

Zhan Xiuhong lowered his eyes, thinking about how he had fallen out with his father and family over the object of his extramarital affair in the Zhan family, and how he had argued with reason and acted as if the whole world owed him something. He wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

"You are so nervous, are you afraid that I will punish you?

If I wanted to punish you, I would have done it a long time ago, not until now.

I asked you to stay in your room these days for your safety.

Besides, what could be more important than you all returning safely?

I know you don't want to implicate Xiaoyan and Xiucheng.

Xiuhong, if you have anything on your mind, just speak it out.

Your mother is gone, and I am your closest person."

Although the old man was angry that Zhan Xiuhong didn't have the courage to call Buyan Chengxi, he had no intention of punishing him.

The words "the closest person" made Zhan Xiuhong unable to control his tears anymore.

He is the closest person to the old man, so he is also the closest person to Bu Yan and Cheng Xi.

But he once hurt his two dearest children for a third party.

Every mistake is his fault.

Seeing that Zhan Xiuhong just lowered his head and shed tears, unable to speak, the old man's eyes became softer than ever before.

“Among the children in our family, your eldest brother is the most sensible and mature.

Your second brother is smart and will not suffer any loss.

Your third brother is sweet-talker and knows how to read people's faces.

As for Xiucheng, although he was rebellious, he was the youngest child and was the most favored since childhood.

His brothers all doted on him and gave in to him.

On the contrary, you, who study well and are hardworking, don’t require me to worry too much, but you are the most easily ignored.

I don’t blame you for taking the wrong path. It’s because I didn’t care about you enough and ignored you all along.

In fact, if I paid enough attention to you, I would have been able to see earlier that there were problems in your marriage."
