Chapter 23: A Visi (2/2)

He Yu continued to make sarcastic remarks in a cold tone of voice. ”Why did you scold me, mother? He Zheng is nowhere to be seen! Why are we taking this so seriously?”

He Changchun asked in a deep voice, ”Where's He Zheng?”

As if performing a good-cop, bad-cop routine with her daughter, Qiao Peiyu hurriedly replied in a tender voice, ”He Zheng might still be sleeping. He had a long, tiresome journey and must be exhausted.”

He Changchun was displeased. ”Go and wake him up. This is unacceptable!”

Someone hastily followed the order.

A black go-anywhere vehicle slowly drove inside. He Changchun quickly replaced his unhappy face with a smiling one. He Yu, who had been casually standing there all along, remained indifferent.

The door of the car opened and with that a pair of long legs in suit pants were seen. He Yu flicked a glance at the legs and felt that this person had pretty good taste. When the man walked out of the vehicle, He Yu was transfixed with shock. 'He–He's so handsome! Shit! It turns out this Li Zong that everybody keeps talking about is so handsome!!!'

Since this was a personal affair, Zu Zhichong wasn't with Li Zong. An old man got off the vehicle shortly after Li Zong. Wearing military uniform, the old man had an air of righteousness about him and looked even more dignified than He Changchun.

”Supt. Li! Master Li!” He Changchun pushed Qiao Peiyu's hands off him and hurriedly walked up to them, smiling.

He greeted Li Zong first, as if in his eyes, Li Zong's status was higher than Master Li.

”There's no need for formalities.”

The old man beside Li Zong didn't care much about the order that He Changchun had greeted them in. He looked around and asked in a sonorous voice, ”Where's my grandson-in-law? I'd like to see him.”

Distantly, He Zheng saw these people standing at the gateway and knitted his eyebrows. At the thought of being among a group of people chirping non-stop, he felt an instant fit of unwillingness to go there.

Surprisingly, Li Zong had very sharp eyes, as if there were radar in them. As soon as He Zheng revealed his head, Li Zong spotted him and casually raised his hand to greet him.

When Li Tiangang caught sight of the young man standing in the distance, his eyes involuntarily lit up.
