Zhang Guoqing had no idea about this; otherwise, he, who was often bored, would definitely rush home. At this moment, he’s holding Xi Zi’s letter, and after reading it, he raised his eyebrows.
"Second brother found out that Mrs. Zhou is seriously ill. Should we inform Dad first?"
Zhou Jiao put down what she was doing, hesitated for a while, and finally shook her head, "Forget it. Dad is under a lot of pressure with his work these days, constantly in meetings every day."
Besides, what difference does it make if we know? Before, her dad kept sending money to Mrs. Zhou, but never got a word in reply. Later on, he even started blaming us.
And now, she fell ill without informing their father and daughter duo.
Perhaps it’s better this way, a clean break is more straightforward.
Thinking of this, Zhou Jiao picked up her book again and immersed herself in reading.
Zhang Guoqing watched the bookworm leisurely spending an afternoon with a cup of tea and a book. He’s glad she didn’t go out, otherwise if she were to walk on the beach in a swimsuit, the scene...
Having a beautiful wife is really troublesome; even the most conservative swimwear can turn heads.
Hmm, home is still better.
As Ping’an walked in, he saw his dad clinging to his mom again, and shook his head like a little adult.
"Dad, you should pay more attention to me."
Zhang Guoqing was thrilled to see his son and immediately scooped up the boy rushing towards him, "Where have you been visiting again today? Dad wants to care for you, but needs to see you first."
"Grandpa Liu’s." After speaking, Ping’an lifted his chin dissatisfiedly, "You should buy me ice cream, don’t mistreat your son just because you’re afraid of your wife."
Zhang Guoqing kissed the child, "Son, Dad is not afraid of your mom. Your mom is doing what’s best for you. See, when ice cream melts, it’s just water and has no nutrition. You’re still young, a little baby’s stomach; craving cold things is not good."
Ping’an looked at him mournfully, "When can I grow up? You said yesterday I should behave like a little adult."
Zhou Jiao looked up and saw Zhang Guoqing rendered speechless, smiled... Serves you right for deceiving the kid.
"Your thinking is like a little adult, but your body is still not there. Uh... Dad means that although our Ping’an is smart and knowledgeable, you’re still a little baby. By the time you grow to ten years old, you can eat whatever you like and enjoy life to the fullest."
Finished speaking, Zhang Guoqing saw his son start calculating the time, quickly changed the subject, "What do you want to eat tonight? Dad will cook personally."
Ping’an smiled slyly, "I want you to take me hunting. I heard uncles mention going to the Ba Shang Grassland, and they said they’re going to see some chicks." He then asked unhappily, "Dad, who are these chicks? Are they as smart as me? Why do uncles laugh so happily when talking about chicks?"
Zhou Jiao sprayed out a mouthful of tea.
Zhang Guoqing laughed heartily, "What uncles meant by chicks are not referring to a person, they’re talking about young ladies. These uncles miss their wives. Our Ping’an knows, just don’t spread it around."
"I promise, Dad, but you haven’t promised me yet."
Zhang Guoqing listened, pinched his son’s arm, "Is Little Stone hitting the target accurately now? If you have a good aim, Dad will personally take you hunting, otherwise, it’s no fun running around in the scorching heat."
