Chapter 621: Chapter 499: Grandma, They’re Not Good People

"Aiyoh, our Ping’an is finally back, I’ve missed you so much."

"Who’s this Mongolia little Prince?"

As soon as Ping’an arrived at the doorstep, he rushed in. He had to tell his grandfather how many game he had hit.

In the living room, Lin Lishan was chatting with several women, and upon seeing him come back, she stood up in surprise and delight.

Ping’an immediately stopped in his tracks, glanced around, and saw many unfamiliar faces. He cheerfully said, "I’ve missed you so much too, grandma."

"Shanshan, is this your little grandson? He looks really good."

"Little friend, what’s your name, and how old are you?"

Ping’an looked at his grandmother, who was just happily holding him and not introducing him to the others. How should he address these people then?

"Hello everyone, welcome to my home. My nickname is Zhou Ping’an, and my formal name is Zhang Mingxuan, almost four years old."

The women were amused and burst into laughter at his grown-up way of speaking.

"Little guy, why do you have two last names?"

Ping’an glanced at the person, "My mom’s last name is Zhou, my dad’s last name is Zhang. What’s so strange about that?"

"Oh my, your little grandson is remarkable. So young and already so sharp-tongued?"

Ping’an didn’t refute, just glanced at his grandmother. He sighed inwardly, what should he do with such a silly grandma? He was worried to death.

"Grandma, where’s grandpa?"

Lin Lishan, seeing he wanted to get down, held him and walked towards the study, "Your grandpa is inside talking with someone, be mindful. Why didn’t you let us pick you up when you returned?"

Ping’an turned his head, gauging the expressions of the women sitting down, and replied, "Mom said grandpa has been very tired lately, we shouldn’t delay his rest."

Lin Lishan did not understand the little grandson’s intention, completely oblivious that this was a hint for the guests to leave.

She placed the child at the study door, patted his head, "Why is your grandpa tired? Next time you go anywhere, make sure your parents send a telegram in advance."

Ping’an nodded with a smile, waved bye to her, and knocked on the study door.

"Come in."

As Ping’an entered, he saw two men sitting on chairs, his grandfather sat in a big chair at the desk. Hmm, he understood now, they were certainly not important guests. But why were they allowed into the study?

"Why are you alone, where are your parents?"

Ping’an hopped his way to the front, extended both arms, "Xiao Wu and Aunt Chen are still packing their bags before coming in."

Zhou Xiaozheng picked up the child, placing him in his lap, "Be careful your mom doesn’t hear and spank you." He said to the two seated below, "This is my grandson. Ping’an, say hello, this is Grandpa Chen and Grandpa Wu."

"The chief is so fortunate, this child looks clever at first glance."

"A tiger head on his shoulders, he’ll be a general in the future."

Ping’an cheerily greeted them and stayed quiet in the grandfather’s lap, his big eyes observing them, listening to their casual chatter.

Zhang Guoqing was in the kitchen placing down bags, half listening. After a while, he asked Aunt Chen, "When did the guests arrive? My dad’s or my mom’s guests?"

Aunt Chen shook her head, "They all seem to know the chief, but they’re also familiar with the lady. After lunch, they came over and have been chatting till now."

After speaking, Aunt Chen peeked outside and said in a low voice, "Five women and two men came together, brought two bottles of special liquor, and two bags of pastries. The men sat for a bit, and the chief led them inside. The women stayed in the living room, constantly gossiping about how so-and-so is doing, all idle chatter."

Zhang Guoqing sneered. These women sure talked a lot, chatting nonsense all afternoon, where did they find so much to say.

In the East Wing, Zhou Jiao washed away the dust of travel and finally felt alive again. Everything outside is good, but bathing is inconvenient, always with some concerns.

When she changed clothes and went out the door, she saw Zhang Guoqing already waiting at the door.

"The living room is full of women. If you don’t want to deal with them, wait until they leave to greet them."
