Zhang Ru and Song's father were free that day, so the two families planned to have a phone call. In fact, they had already had this plan, but they had always been delayed by one thing or another before and couldn't find a suitable time for the song.
This time, while Song Yingwan and Xie Ci were both there, everyone gathered together to talk. Although the marriage had already been concluded, both Zhang Ru and Song's father felt that the proper etiquette should still be maintained, probably for the rest of their lives. Just for once, they weren't as confused as these two children and didn't care about anything.
The representatives on the side of the thank you were naturally Grandpa Xie and Grandma Xie. Zhang Ru also knew the situation of the thank you. She had a good impression of the two old people from Song Yingwan's words, so she did not force Xie Jianguo to be present.
Grandpa Xie and Grandma Xie have been waiting on the other end of the phone for a long time. In fact, it was the man who should have visited first, but the old man's body couldn't bear the long journey, so it was okay not to mention his bastard son.
That's why it took so long. Unfortunately, the two sides still couldn't meet each other. Grandpa Xie and Grandma Xie also felt guilty and took this call very seriously.
Neither party is unreasonable, and they are very satisfied with their two children, so the conversation was naturally very pleasant.
After hanging up the phone, on the way back, Xie Ci and Song's father were walking in front, and Song Yingwan was holding Zhang Ru's arm and following behind.
Zhang Ru said with a smile, "The grandparents who thanked me are very kind. With them here, I feel relieved."
"My grandparents are very good to me, and my uncle and his wife are also nice. I still have my words of thanks. Mom, you don't have to worry about me." Song Yingwan looked at the empty street in front of her with a touch of satisfaction in her expression. and smile.
How can parents not worry about their children? Zhang Ru frowned slightly, "I just want to say thank you to the father and stepmother..."
Song Yingwan smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about this. We won't live together in the future anyway, and we won't show our filial piety, but we won't have much contact."
Zhang Ru sighed, patted her hand and said, "You are still young, and after all, you are the biological father and son whose blood is thicker than water. I am not worried about your father-in-law, but I don't think that your stepmother is safe."
Song Yingwan also told Zhang Ru about Jiang Meilin. She had lived for most of her life and knew that the family's troubles were hard to explain and were nothing more than love and profit.
Song Yingwan comforted her, "If she is still restless, she still has her grandparents and Xie Qi. If she really bullies me, then I won't treat her as an elder."
"Just don't let yourself be wronged." Zhang Ru said with a smile.
Song Yingwan said, "No, my parents have never let me be wronged since I was a child. Of course I am not willing to let myself be wronged."
"Okay, Mom knows."

After dinner, Zhang Rugang packed up a bag of garbage from the kitchen. She thanked him and took it with a wink, saying, "I'll throw it away."
Zhang Ru hesitated and said, "Why don't you put it there first? It's the same thing if I take it away when I leave tomorrow morning."
After living here for such a long time, Xie Ci also knows Zhang Ru's habits. There is no garbage piled up at home, and everything is clean.
This aspect is very similar to Song Yingwan.
He smiled gently, "It's okay, I'll walk quickly and I'll be back in a while."
Zhang Ru originally planned to throw it away by herself, but then she said, "Okay, thank you for your hard work."
Thanks, "No."
Song Yingwan looked up at him and asked, "Do you want me to come with you?"
He curled his lips in thanks and said softly, "No, let's play with Chenchen here. It's cold outside."
Song Yingwan's light eyebrows contained a soft smile, "Okay."
It was indeed as he said, he had long arms and legs, and he ran downstairs in a few steps, and it didn't take much time.
After throwing away the things on his hands, just as he was about to turn around and go back, he saw a person pacing back and forth not far away from the corner of his eye. His figure was hidden in the darkness, so he didn't notice it at first.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, but there was darkness and depth in his eyes.
The steady footsteps were as rhythmic as drum beats, especially clear in the silent night. As the sound got closer and closer, Chen Feng suddenly reacted.
The moonlight was bright and bright tonight, so he could recognize who the person standing in front of him was at a glance. The impression was so profound that Chen Feng's breath stopped and he said in shock, "It's you!"
The expression of thanks was indifferent, and an indifferent voice sounded, "Why are you here?"
Chen Feng clenched his fists hidden under his sleeves, and squeezed out a hoarse sentence from his throat, "What does this have to do with you?"
As if not to lose his momentum, he spoke again, "I'm here to see Wanwan!"
Xie Xi raised his eyelids and seemed to sneer.
The next second, the collar on Chen Feng's chest was tightly grasped. He felt as if his whole body was being lifted up, and his throat was blocked by something, making him unable to make a sound.
The low and cold voice of the thank you sounded, without a trace of emotion, "You really don't know whether to live or die."
As soon as he finished speaking, his fists were suddenly raised high. Chen Feng's eyes suddenly opened wide, and he subconsciously held his head with both hands, closing his eyes tightly with a look of horror.
After a while, the pain he imagined did not subside. When he opened his eyes, he saw Xie Ci's sarcastic expression flash past, and then he was thrown to the ground.
A huge sense of shame surged through his body. He quickly stood up and said angrily, "Do you think you are very proud? Let me tell you, Wanwan still has me in her heart. You don't even know that she used to be shy and timid after me. "
Chen Feng had completely lost his mind at this time. He only knew that since he was not having a good time, no one would be able to have a good time.
Then he took out two pieces of paper from his pocket with trembling hands and said proudly, "You see, this is the love letter Wanwan wrote to me before."
"You don't even know how much she liked me before, and how charming her slutty look was...ah!"
Xie Ci punched Chen Feng hard in the face, and his words stopped abruptly.
It was still a voice that was too cold to distinguish emotions, but veins popped out in the arm that was clenched into a fist, "This is the first and last time. If I hear similar words again, it won't be as simple as today. "
Chen Feng looked up blankly, "You, you dare to hit me?!"
There was sarcasm on Xie Ci's lips, and he ignored his foolish words.
Then he leaned over and picked up the two pieces of paper on the ground, tore them into pieces without looking at them, and turned around to leave.
Chen Feng said in surprise, "Don't you care at all?"
The words of thanks paused a little, and there was a hint of disgust in his voice, "You think I'm as miserable as you."
"Based on what you said today, you don't deserve to appear in front of her again in the future."
Chen Feng was shivering all over and couldn't say a word anymore. He looked at the back of the thank you as he walked further and further away.
Then the anger in his heart became even more intense, he thought, why did Song Yingwan treat him like this now when Song Yingwan was obviously just someone he summoned before?
