Without waiting for Tang Zheng to speak, the elder gentleman spoke first.
The light above my head suddenly turned on, and the originally dim room instantly became bright.
Tang Zheng glanced at the surroundings, and when she saw the various torture instruments on the walls and shelves, she shuddered with fear.
"you……"
I never thought that Mr. Yuan would actually play these games.
If he were younger, Tang Zheng would have suspected that he had any special hobbies.
But at his age, it was obvious that this was an interrogation room.
"You wouldn't be so serious." Tang Zheng took a breath, feeling a little panicked.
The elder gentleman tightly grasped the dragon-headed cane in his hand and said, "I have long suspected that you must know something, but after so long, you always beat around the bush with me. Do you think I am easy to tease?"
Tang Zheng leaned weakly on the back of the chair and sighed: "Actually, this matter can't be blamed on me."
The elder gentleman slammed his cane on the floor: "Hurry up and speak!"
"Let me tell you a story."
Mr. Elder: “Speak.”
"A long time ago, there was a man who lost his child, so he asked his best friend to help find the child. However, his best friend discovered that the enemy who caused his family to be destroyed and his wife and children to be separated was very likely the offspring of his best friend. What do you think he should do?"
Mr. Yuanlao was a smart man, so of course he understood what Tang Zheng meant.
"That enemy has done many evil things and violated the law. Not only will he face imprisonment, but he may also be in danger of losing his life. What do you think we should do about this matter?"
Looking at the elder's shocked and complicated expression, Tang Zheng felt very panicked.
In fact, she didn't expect this result, but the elder gentleman treated her well, and she couldn't let people be happy for nothing.
"What do you want?"
After a long time, the elder gentleman, with red eyes, asked instead of answering.
"As long as the personal safety of me and my family is guaranteed and the interests of me and my family are not affected, you can do whatever you want."
The elder clenched his hand around the dragon-headed cane, loosened it, clenched it, and loosened it again: “So, Wei Boen is my great-grandson, and that Zou Hong is pregnant with my great-great-grandson.”
Tang Zheng was silent for a moment, then stood up: "I'm not full yet, I'm going to continue eating."
The elder had already investigated the situation around Tang Zheng, but he didn't know that Wei Boen was related to him by blood.
He also didn't know how Tang Zheng was sure of this.
At this moment, his heart was very complicated, more complicated than ever before.
Zou Hong walked around the villa several times and finally went back to the restaurant.
She was almost exhausted, but then she saw Tang Zheng sitting at the dining table eating as if nothing had happened.
As if nothing had happened before.
She was confused: "Why are you back? Did the elder do anything to you?"
Tang Zheng took a sip of soup: "For your sake, I guess I can't do that, right?"
Zou Hong panicked even more: "I... I don't know you well, please don't put the blame on me!"
Tang Zheng laughed out loud: "You said before that you would follow my lead, but it turned out to be a lie?"
Zou Hong: “…”
Soon, the elder gentleman also came back.
He sat back in the main seat, glanced at Zou Hong, and said, "Let's eat."
Zou Hong: “Oh…”
The next day, Tang Zheng and Yuan Jing were going to meet the elderly craftsman to ask him to help repair the damaged phoenix crown.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I went out, I saw Zou Hong.
When Zou Hong saw Tang Zheng, she hurried over and smiled flatteringly, "Boss Tang, don't be angry. I was just joking with you yesterday. I still have to rely on you for food in the future. Otherwise, how can I raise the baby in my belly?"
Tang Zheng widened his eyes and looked at Yuan Jing with confusion.
The baby in Zou Hong's belly is Mr. Yuan Lao's offspring. With such a big thing, hasn't Mr. Yuan Lao recognized Zou Hong yet?
At the very least, Zou Hong's treatment should be improved. She should have bodyguards and a nanny, and live a good life with fine clothes and delicious food, right?
After Yuan Jing felt Tang Zheng's doubtful gaze, he only said four words: "Everything remains the same."
Tang Zheng suddenly realized. She hesitated for a moment and handed the bag in her hand directly to Zou Hong: "It's a bit heavy, help me carry it."
Zou Hong became happy instantly. It seemed that Tang Zheng didn't hold a grudge against her about what happened yesterday.
She quickly took Tang Zheng's bag: "Okay, oh, by the way, are you thirsty? I'll get you a cup and bring you some water. Will you be hungry when you go out? I'll get you a thermos and bring you some food, okay?"
Tang Zheng: "...No need."
Tang Zheng went to visit the grandfather and grandson who were repairing the Phoenix Crown specially. She didn't think anything was wrong on the way, but as soon as she arrived at the door of their house, Tang Zheng became nervous.
She swallowed and asked Yuan Jing: "Do you think my phoenix crown can be repaired?"
Yuan Jing said with a straight face: "It's hard to say. Didn't I tell you before that Mr. Xia is old, sometimes lucid and sometimes confused, and he has a weird temper."
When it comes to her having a weird temper, Tang Zheng feels a little scared, after all, she was once abused by Old Yao.
Tang Zheng took a breath and walked in. As soon as he entered, he saw the old man scolding his grandson.
The old man had white hair and looked like an immortal, but he had an angry look on his face. He held a ruler in his hand and was spanking his grandson's butt very hard.
Yes, he was spanking, and the young man’s pants were taken off, revealing his white, round buttocks unscrupulously to Tang Zheng’s eyes.
Tang Zheng almost fell and turned around quickly.
"Grandpa, someone is coming!" When a stranger suddenly appeared, Xia Quanguang felt flustered and shy.
The old man didn't stop whipping Xia Quan's bare bottom, and he whipped even harder: "I told you, don't touch my things casually. Even if you want to repair it, you should ask me how to do it. How can you tinker with it secretly? You ruined a good antique by repairing it!"
The ruler hit her buttocks again and again. Although Tang Zheng turned around, the sound still reached her ears. Tang Zheng blushed for a moment.
If you're not careful and draw that thing, then you're done for, right?
"Yuan Jing, please persuade them!"
Tang Zheng still wanted to leave a good impression on the two people. Besides, if this continued, the old man would be furious and his grandson would be beaten.
Yuan Jing coughed: "I dare not..."
Tang Zheng was surprised: "Why..."
Before he finished his words, he heard two bangs and watched two marbles fly into a pillar nearby.
Tang Zheng's legs suddenly went weak. If he heard correctly, the faint sound of wind just now was the sound of the marbles rubbing against her scalp.
If this falls on her head, won’t she be dead?
Yuan Jing's expression froze when he saw this, and he immediately bowed to the old man: "Elder, I am Mr. Yuan's man, and I came here specially to pay my respects to you two!"
The old man snorted and threw away the ruler in his hand: "Get lost, I don't know any elder gentleman!"
Yuan Jing glanced at Tang Zheng with a sympathetic look.
If the deal fails, Tang Zheng will be in trouble.
Tang Zheng still didn't understand why. Since it didn't work to use connections, he might as well just use money.
She was just about to take out money to pay for the labor when she noticed that the tiles under her feet looked a little strange.
"This……"
The golden floor tiles sparkle from the friction caused by frequent walking.
"Gold." Yuan Jing looked calm.
