At this point, Xie Yajing paused, and then said: "Professor Zhou, Teacher Sun, I'm sorry, this accident is my responsibility."

Sun Yi had recovered by then. She sighed and said, "It's not all your fault. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have such a good son like Xiaochen. In fact, we should thank you."

Although she was dissatisfied with the things that Xie Yajing had concealed, they had actually known about it for a long time and had taken precautions. However, they did not expect that the adopted little girl would actually come back and become a very capable person.

What's more, if Xie Yajing had not concealed something at the beginning, they might not have adopted Zhou Chen, and they would not have had such a sensible, filial, capable and competent son.

So, they should actually be more grateful to Xie Yajing.

"thanks, thanks."

Xie Yajing couldn't help but shed tears. Although she was very nice to Zhou Chen back then, she was only nice to him for a period of time.

But Zhou Chen has been helping her and the welfare home over the years. In comparison, her initial kindness is far less than the return Zhou Chen has brought her.

So she sincerely wanted the best for Zhou Chen, and she was willing to do so even if it meant paying a lot.

After hanging up the phone, Xie Yajing asked someone to call Andy over.

"Dean Xie, have you called? What did they say?"

Even someone as calm as Andy was extremely nervous at this moment, fearing that he would get a negative answer from Xie Yajing.

Xie Yajing nodded and said, "They agreed, but it's not convenient right now. I'll call them again later and let you guys talk then."

"Thank you." Andy breathed a sigh of relief, and then became extremely excited.

Xie Yajing's expression was serious, and she continued, "Miss He, I still say the same thing. Your brother is living a very good life now. He is very filial and very promising. He graduated from a prestigious university and has his own career. He will probably get married and have children soon."

"Even if you are her sister, so many years have passed. Even if you are related by blood, you have never lived together. So I think if they really don't want to, you should be more open-minded, because as a parent, you should consider the child more. Because Xiao Ming's past is flawed. If it is exposed, he will be the one affected. Do you understand?"

Andy frowned. From what Dean Xie said, it seemed that her brother was a little bit unusual.

"Don't worry, I'm looking for my brother only for his own good and it won't affect him."

"Hopefully."

Magic City, Ode to Joy.

Since hanging up the phone, Sun Yi and Zhou Guofu had no mood to cook anymore, but went back to sit on the sofa in the living room.

The two were silent for a long time, and finally Sun Yi couldn't help but say: "Xiaochen is my son, no one can take him away. Even if they are his relatives, they have never fulfilled their obligation to raise him, and they are not qualified to recognize Xiaochen."

"Old Zhou, please say something. Someone is trying to snatch our son away from us. Why don't you say anything? Are you trying to drive me crazy?"

Zhou Guofu looked at his wife and sighed, "What's the point of being anxious? Can being anxious solve the problem?"

"Then what do you think we should do?"

Although she usually takes care of Zhou Guofu, she will still listen to her husband when it comes to such important matters.

"I'll call her later and test her. If I can convince her, that's great. If not, we'll just take it one step at a time."

Sun Yi asked anxiously, "How can we take one step at a time?"

Zhou Guofu said: "You have to have confidence in our son. Although she is Xiaochen's biological sister, Xiaochen has been with us for so many years. We are a family. He will know his limits."

Sun Yi hesitated and said, "But, but after all, they are siblings and are related by blood. I am still worried."

"Don't think too much about it. It's almost noon. Xiaochen has called his girlfriend back for dinner. What should we do now?"

Sun Yi said with a melancholy look on her face: "How can I have the energy to cook now? My son is almost gone."

"You, we have already made an agreement with our son and Xiaoguan. Are you going to change your mind now? If you break your promise, how will the children see us?"

Zhou Guofu was not satisfied with his wife's behavior. Although it happened suddenly, it was not something that happened overnight. The most important thing was that he was sure that Zhou Chen would not abandon them, so although he was worried, he was not afraid.

In comparison, Zhou Chen is going to bring his girlfriend back today. This is related to his son's future and marriage, so he has to pay more attention to it.

Sun Yi snorted, "I'm not as careless as you, but I just can't calm down. My son is the apple of my eye. If I don't have him, I don't want to live anymore."

Being a high school teacher and grade director, she certainly couldn't be stupid, but this touched the biggest pain in her heart, so how could she think about the problem calmly?

"Look at you, your words are becoming more and more incoherent. I think you should talk to your son about this."

Zhou Guofu was about to call Zhou Chen, but Sun Yi snatched his phone away and shouted, "No, you can't tell Xiaochen, I won't allow it."

Seeing his wife already starting to behave abnormally, Zhou Guofu frowned and suddenly shouted, "Sun Yi, calm down."

Sun Yi froze. She couldn't remember how long it had been since her husband had been so mean to her, but she was not afraid.

"How can I calm down? I want to calm down, but I can't."

"you listen to me."

Zhou Guofu pressed his wife to his side and advised softly, "Things are not as bad as you think. The one who came to see him now is his sister, not his parents. Even if his sister is his biological sister, she is now grown up and has her own family. Do you really think she can take our son away?"

"That being said, yes."

"Didn't Dean Xie tell us that his parents are no longer around, and Zhou Chen is already grown up, so there's no such thing as custody, so no one can take our son away."

"In fact, if you think about it the other way around, it may not be a bad thing if my son can have another biological sister, provided that his sister is not a bad person."

"The reason I agreed to talk to her was because I wanted to find out what kind of person she was through chatting. If she was a good person who really wanted the best for my brother, then it would be fine for my son to recognize her. But if she had ulterior motives, then I would never let my son recognize her, even if it meant risking my life."

Zhou Guofu's tone was very firm. He was very confident in his education of Zhou Chen and believed that his son was definitely not the ungrateful person.

He was not worried about his son recognizing his sister, but rather whether that woman had ulterior motives.

After all, his son’s current status is extraordinary. If someone knows something and wants to benefit from Zhou Chen, he will definitely not allow it.

"Do you really think so?"

Sun Yi looked at her husband in surprise. She didn't quite understand his open-mindedness.

Zhou Guofu nodded and said, "That's what I thought, so I wanted to discuss it with my son."

Sun Yi thought about it, then shook her head and said, "No, at least not now. Let's talk to that woman first. If we can convince her, we don't have to tell our son."

"Alright, that's settled then."

Zhou Guofu was relieved to see that his wife had finally returned to normal.

After so many years, as his wife's bedmate, he certainly knew the thorn in her heart.

Especially in the first few years after Zhou Chen was brought home, Sun Yi often woke up in the middle of the night from dreams, saying that someone was trying to snatch her son away. Although it did not have much impact on her, it was always a thorn in her heart.

After many years, this thorn popped up again, so it was normal for her to lose her composure and go crazy.

"What about the meeting at noon?"

Sun Yi said: "But I really don't have the mood to cook right now, and it's hard for me to calm down in my current state. If something goes wrong during the meeting, wouldn't it make Xiaochen embarrassed?"

Zhou Guofu thought so too. It was indeed not easy for his wife to remain calm with this matter on her mind.

"Then I'll tell my son to postpone the meeting?"

"Well, call Xiaochen and tell him that my heart isn't feeling well and I have high blood pressure."

"Okay, then you sit down first, I'll make the call."

Zhou Chen was already walking home when he suddenly received a call from his father, who said his mother was not feeling well. He was shocked and quickly asked the reason.

He became even more worried when he heard his father say vaguely that he didn't know how it happened.

"Then Dad, you guys wait for me at home first, I'll go back and see my mom."

"Lunch? I'll tell Guan Guan. It's okay. She will understand. My mother's health is the most important."

"I'll be home in about half an hour, so don't wander around."

Zhou Guofu hung up the phone, returned to the living room and said to Sun Yi: "My son is coming back. He said he would explain to Xiaoguan, so we don't have to worry."

When Sun Yi heard this, she immediately became anxious: "What? Xiaochen is already back? Then how are we going to call him later?"

"Don't worry, Xiaochen won't be home for about half an hour. Let's talk to that woman on the phone first and finish our conversation before he comes back."

"Can it be done?"

"No problem, I'll tell you later, don't interrupt."

Zhou Guofu was afraid that his wife would be anxious and say something unpleasant, so he gave her a heads up in advance.

Sorry, there is only one update today. My child is not feeling well and has been making trouble for a few days. Today my head really feels like it is going to explode. I have a severe migraine and feel dizzy the whole time. I hope you guys can understand.

Chapter 426: Talk again, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law meet

"Oh, I see. Are you okay, Auntie?"

"Okay, then hurry over there, our business is not urgent."

Guan Juer hung up the phone in a panic, her face full of anxiety and worry.

Fan Shengmei, who was shopping with her, asked in confusion, "Guan Guan, is it Zhou Chen calling? What's wrong? Why do you look so anxious?"

Guan Juer said with a worried look on her face: "Mother Zhou Chen is feeling unwell in her heart, and some say she has high blood pressure."

Fan Shengmei's eyes widened immediately: "I asked you to come over for dinner today, and you suddenly fell ill. Isn't this a coincidence? Did you do it on purpose?"

Guan Juer shook her head and said, "Impossible, Zhou Chen is very filial, it is impossible for him to lie to me about this kind of thing, and I have also met his parents, they are not that kind of people."

Fan Shengmei thought for a moment and said, "What you said makes sense. There is really no need for this. After all, we live in the same building and we see each other every day. There is no need to find such a lame excuse. It seems that his mother must be really sick."

"So Zhou Chen told me not to go there at noon."

Hearing this, Fan Shengmei nodded her head speechlessly: "Xiao Guanguan, what on earth are you thinking about? Isn't this a good opportunity for you to show your courtesy and please your future mother-in-law?"

"what?"

"What? Go tell Zhou Chen that you are worried about his mother and want to go over to see her. Elderly people like considerate daughters-in-law. You should show your kindness at this time."

Guan Ju immediately said, "Sister Fan, do you think so too?"

It was Fan Shengmei's turn to be surprised. She asked, "Have you thought of all this?"

Guan Juer smiled foolishly and said, "I didn't think so much about it. I just felt that if I didn't know, it would be fine. But now that I know, as a junior, I should go and take a look."

She really thought so. If she didn't know, it would be fine. But if she knew, she would definitely go and see it, otherwise it would seem impolite.

So she called Zhou Chen again and said she wanted to go see her aunt. Zhou Chen naturally did not refuse. It was very convenient as it was just going up and down the stairs.

Andy was obsessed with it and finally got in touch with Zhou Guofu on the phone, but they did not reach an agreement on the phone.

Finally, Zhou Guofu said that if it was convenient, they could meet in Shanghai in three days to talk.

Of course Andy would not refuse. For her, being able to meet the person who adopted her brother meant being able to meet her biological brother.

Since the other party had already agreed to meet her, Andy naturally had no need to stay. She left 200,000 yuan and gave it to Xie Yajing.

Xie Yajing didn't want to accept Andy's money, but Andy was very determined. He said that it was to thank her for taking care of her brother. In the end, he did not give Xie Yajing a chance to refuse and took Lao Yan away from the welfare home.

Zhou Chen hurried home and saw his mother lying on the bed with a bad look on her face.

"Mom, how are you? You were fine when I left this morning. How come you are like this now?"

Zhou Chen sat down beside the bed, grabbed his mother's hand, and began to take her pulse.

Sun Yi forced a smile and said, "I'm fine. My blood pressure is just a little high and I feel a little uncomfortable. I'll be fine after a rest."

As an old doctor, Zhou Chen quickly noticed something wrong from Sun Yi's pulse and frowned.

"Mom, are you frightened or what?"

He found that his mother's pulse was indeed abnormal, and it was difficult to confirm the level of her blood pressure, but her heartbeat and liver fire were definitely not right. This situation was a bit like a problem caused by being frightened or excessively angry.

But fortunately it was not a big problem, which made him feel relieved.

Sun Yi said: "It's really nothing serious, I just can't cook today. I told you to bring your girlfriend back, but it turned out like this."

"Why are you saying this, Mom? Your health is the most important thing. Don't let your imagination run wild."

Zhou Chen comforted her softly, and then said, "Guan Guan heard that you were not feeling well and wanted to come over to see you. I agreed."

"what?"

When Sun Yi heard this, she immediately sat up from the bed and said anxiously, "Didn't your dad tell you not to let Xiao Guan come over today? Why did you let her come over?"

"Mom, slow down."

Zhou Chen quickly helped his mother up and leaned her against the bed, then explained: "I told her that you were not feeling well, but Guan Guan wanted to come over to see you just because of this. She is a very kind and filial girl. If she wants to come, I can't stop her, otherwise she will definitely think too much and think that you guys didn't let her come."

Sun Yi said dissatisfiedly: "How could we not welcome her? It's just that it's not good for her to see me sick when she came here for the first time."

"Mom, our family doesn't care about these things, and neither does Guan Guan's family. Besides, it's normal for a future daughter-in-law to come visit her mother-in-law."
