Movie: Get Alpha Dog at the start

Chapter 1098 The crisis of trust caused by giving away bicycles

Two days later, Lin Dongzhe, Zhuang Xiaoting, and Xiang Pengfei had their final exams. Although they were not high school entrance exams, Song Ying and Huang Ling were both a little nervous.

Fortunately, after the exam, Lin Dongzhe and Zhuang Xiaoting both gave good feedback, only Xiang Pengfei's words were vague, and it is estimated that he will fail again this time.

Huang Ling was a little disappointed: "Pengfei, you have been in Suzhou for a while, and it's time to adapt to the teaching environment here. Don't think about how to play all day long, and focus on studying."

Xiang Pengfei lowered his head and accepted the scolding obediently. Huang Ling was afraid of hurting the child's self-esteem, so she didn't want to continue talking. She could only comfort herself: I tried my best.

For Lin Dongzhe, summer vacation is the happiest time of the year, even happier than the Chinese New Year. After working hard for half a year, he finally has a chance to take a break.

On that day, Lin Dongzhe dragged Qin Hao and Xiang Pengfei to watch videos, go ice skating and go shopping, just to make up for what they had lost in the past six months.

He deliberately avoided Zhuang Xiaoting when watching the video. Nowadays, video halls often play some restricted movies from Hong Kong. They are not necessarily "erotic films", but there are many bloody and violent scenes. If Zhuang Xiaoting saw them and told about it, Song Ying would definitely not let him go to the video hall again.

He would ask Zhuang Xiaoting to go ice skating and shopping with him, and sometimes he even took her away by force.

A week passed without any worries, but then a phone call from Zhuang Tunan caused some ripples in the originally peaceful courtyard.

Zhuang Tunan joined Professor Ruan's team as he wished and is about to go to Yunyao, but he has encountered a problem. The transportation in Yunyao is very inconvenient. There are no buses in the ancient city, and transportation basically depends on walking.

The Yunyao Ancient City project is extremely urgent. The local government is planning to demolish the ancient city for development. In order to protect the ancient city to the greatest extent, Professor Ruan’s team needs to come up with a solution in the shortest possible time. The time is tight and the task is heavy, so bicycles are urgently needed.

This made Huang Ling very worried. The adults had to go to work, and Shanghai was neither far nor close. No one was comfortable letting the children go there.

"Now that junior high school is on vacation, Teacher Zhuang shouldn't have to teach, right?"

This sentence woke up the dreamer, and even Huang Ling was stunned. She almost forgot about Zhuang Chaoying.

This task fell on Zhuang Xiaoting, who hurried to the middle school attached to the cotton mill to find Zhuang Chaoying.

Zhuang Chaoying agreed readily and he was very dedicated to his children's education.

So early the next morning, Huang Ling cleaned the two bicycles and waited for Zhuang Chaoying to come and pick them up. However, she waited until nine o'clock but still did not see Zhuang Chaoying.

Huang Ling could no longer sit still, so she quickly asked Xiang Pengfei to go to the banker to see what was going on.

Xiang Pengfei went straight to the Zhuang family, but saw Zhuang Chaoying giving a lecture to Zhendong and Zhenbei.

"Uncle, why are you still here? Aren't you going to deliver a bicycle to Brother Tunan? It will be too late if you don't leave now."

Zhuang Chaoying kept silent, and Grandma Zhuang said sarcastically, "Didn't Huang Ling say that the child would be with her in the future? Why are you thinking of our Chaoying now?"

Xiang Pengfei stamped his feet anxiously: "Uncle, you promised Xiaoting yesterday."

Zhuang Chaoying subconsciously put down his book upon hearing this, and was about to stand up, but was stopped by Master Zhuang: "Don't go. Humph, look at these kids, they are all ungrateful. They haven't come for such a long time, and when they come, they don't even greet us. You can't rely on them in the future. You should pay more attention to Zhendong and Zhenbei."

Xiang Pengfei was about to pull Zhuang Chaoying away when he saw this, but was pushed away by Zhuang Ye: "Go back and tell Huang Ling that she is capable, so don't come to Chaoying to ask for the child's living expenses in the future. If she doesn't have that ability, just return the child to our Zhuang family."

"Uncle!"

Seeing that Zhuang Chaoying still had no intention of going with him, Xiang Pengfei was filled with disappointment. He gritted his teeth, got up from the ground and rushed out.

"Dad~~~"

Master Zhuang glared at Zhuang Chaoying fiercely and said, "It's because you are too weak that Huang Ling took control of you. I feel ashamed for you that a grown man is taken control of by his own wife. You must teach her a lesson this time, otherwise she really thinks she can raise two children by herself."

"From now on, you must hand over all your monthly salary to them and not give them a penny."

Seeing this, Grandma Zhuang also hurriedly cooperated and said to Zhuang Chaoying softly, "Chaoying, it's not that your father is cruel, but look at how these children have been spoiled by Huang Ling. You have to show some aura as the head of the family to scare them, otherwise, do you plan to live in the office forever?"

After Zhuang Chaoying moved out of home, Zhuang Ganmei refused to let Zhuang Chaoying live there, saying that there was no room at home. He could only get a simple wooden bed in the office of the affiliated high school, dismantle the bed during the day and put it up again at night when he went to bed. He would go back to Zhuang's house to take a shower, do laundry, etc.

……

On the other side, Xiang Pengfei ran back to the courtyard crying and told Huang Ling what had happened. Huang Ling was so angry that her eyes turned red.

"What should we do now? We will miss the afternoon train in Tunan if we don't leave now."

Lin Dongzhe volunteered: "I'll go and take it to Brother Tunan. I've been to Shanghai before and I know how to get to Tongji University."

Song Ying felt a little worried when she heard this, after all, there were two adults accompanying them the last time they went.

"I'll go with Lin Dongzhe. We can also take him to Shanghai to play for a few days. Pengfei, Xiaoting, do you want to come with us?"

Xiang Pengfei and Zhuang Xiaoting were delighted when they heard this and said in unison: "Let's go."

Huang Ling wiped her tears and said to Qin Hao with gratitude: "Haozi, thank you for your help. I..."

"Auntie Huang, we are a family, so please don't talk behind each other's backs. Besides, this is a favor for Zhuang Tunan, so he has to repay the favor."

Before leaving, Song Ying reminded Lin Dongzhe: "Don't run around when you go to Shanghai this time, otherwise you won't be able to go out in the future."

"Don't worry, Mom. Brother Hao is watching over me. What are you worried about?"

Song Ying thought so too, and then took out a few Great Unity Fortress cards from her bag and gave them to Qin Hao.

"Auntie Song, you don't have to give me the money. The prize money from this China-Japan Go Tournament is enough for me to spend for a long time."

Actually, the chess academy is quite stingy. This time, after defeating the powerful Japanese team and breaking the myth that Japan's top chess players are invincible, they gave Qin Hao a bonus of 10,000 yuan.

However, Qin Hao heard from Jiang Zhujiu that their bonus was even less, only about three thousand yuan.

Song Ying wanted to say something, but Xiang Pengfei and Zhuang Xiaoting had already packed their luggage and urged: "Brother Hao, Lin Dongzhe, are you guys ready? We're almost late for the bus."

"Well, then you guys be careful. Your Aunt Huang and I have to go to the afternoon shift, so we won't be sending you off."

"No need to send us off. We are not children anymore." Lin Dongzhe was like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins, and he couldn't wait to run to the free grassland.

Qin Hao and his group soon arrived at the bus station. They were greeted by Zhuang Hualin's fellow educated youth from Guizhou - Lao Qian. He was lucky as he did not have a formal job in Guizhou, but was among the first batch to apply to return to the city after the policy was relaxed. After he came back, his family asked someone to find connections to get him a job as a driver at the bus station.

"Hey, didn't Pengfei say that your uncle came to deliver a bicycle?" Old Qin took a quick look and didn't see Zhuang Chaoying, which made him feel a little strange.

Xiang Pengfei couldn't say anything bad about his uncle to outsiders, so he could only perfunctorily say, "My uncle had something urgent to do, so I asked Brother Hao to go with us."

"Master Qian, I'm sorry to trouble you." Qin Hao took out the newly bought Hongmei cigarettes from his pocket and handed them to Old Qian. After all, one person has now become four people, which is indeed causing trouble for others.

Old Qian didn't refuse, he put the Hongmei cigarette into his shirt pocket and chuckled, "Since the Go champion gave me cigarettes, I have to smoke them sparingly, so that my children can get some of your literary talent. I heard that you are the top scorer in the college entrance examination, that's amazing."

"Come on board, I'll arrange seats for you."

There were definitely no official seats left as the tickets had been sold out at the bus station long ago, so Lao Qian arranged seats for Qin Hao and the other three on the cover next to the driver's seat.

Along the way, Lin Dongzhe kept asking Qin Hao questions, mostly about his experiences in Japan. Zhuang Xiaoting and Xiang Pengfei, who were listening on the side, were also full of longing.

An old man nearby sneered at this.

"You are just a kid, but you are going abroad? Why don't you mention that you have been to the moon?"

The driver, Lao Qian, laughed out loud when he heard this: "Uncle, if someone else said that, I wouldn't believe it, but you're wrong this time. This person has really been abroad. Do you know who he is?"

"Who is it? He doesn't look like a big leader." The old man looked at Qin Hao suspiciously.

Old Qian chuckled and said, "Uncle, you don't usually watch TV, do you?"

"Televisions are so expensive. Not to mention our village, there are only a few televisions in the entire town."

"That's no wonder. If you watch TV often, you will definitely recognize him. He is the pride of Suzhou. He is Qin Hao, who just defeated five top Japanese players in the China-Japan Go Challenge."

As soon as Lao Qian said this, there was an immediate exclamation.

"He is Qin Hao, right? This is what the young man looks like. He is much more handsome than what was reported in the newspaper last week."

"When I got on the car, I thought this guy looked like Qin Hao. I didn't expect it to be Qin Hao."

"Comrade Xiao Qin is amazing. He really brings honor to us Suzhou people."

"I actually took the same train with Qin Hao. I must show off to my classmates later."

Lin Dongzhe raised his chin proudly with an expression of pride, and if you didn't know him, you would think he was Qin Hao.

Now, the rest of the journey turned into an "exclusive interview" for Qin Hao. All kinds of strange questions came one after another. Some questions made Qin Hao laugh and cry. Someone even asked whether the moon in Japan was really rounder than the one in China.

Fortunately, Suzhou is not far from Shanghai, and Lao Qian drives steadily, so he soon arrived at the Shanghai Bus Station.

Afterwards, Qin Hao drove Xiang Pengfei, Lin Dongzhe drove Zhuang Xiaoting, and the four of them rode two bicycles to the train station.

When Qin Hao and his party arrived at the train station, Zhuang Tunan had been waiting for a long time.

"Xiaoting, why are you here? Didn't you say our dad was here to see you off?" Zhuang Tunan asked puzzledly.

Xiang Pengfei was filled with resentment and was about to vent it, but Zhuang Xiaoting took the lead and said, "Dad had something urgent to do, so he asked us to come and take him home. Brother Hao said that since we are on summer vacation, he can take us to Shanghai to play for two days."

"Oh, I see." Zhuang Tunan turned to Qin Hao and said, "I'm sorry to trouble you again."

"Don't be so fussy, just remember to owe me a favor." Qin Hao scolded with a smile.

There were still two hours before the train departed, so Zhuang Tunan suggested eating something nearby.

While Zhuang Xiaoting and the others were playing in front, Zhuang Tunan lowered his voice and asked, "Haozi, my dad..."

"You should ask Pengfei for details. I wasn't there at the time, and I don't have a good relationship with your father. I don't want them to accuse me of making up fuel to discredit him."

Upon hearing this, Zhuang Tunan felt that there was something wrong, so he took the opportunity of going to the toilet to ask Xiang Pengfei about the situation at that time.

Xiang Pengfei told the whole story in a straightforward manner, and he would fall asleep within a few minutes if asked to read. He remembered these things very clearly, and even imitated the expressions of Grandpa and Grandma Zhuang when they spoke.

Zhuang Tunan's eyes were filled with disappointment when he heard this. He used to think that no matter what, his father was still very good to him and his sister Xiaoting, but now it seems that in his father's heart, his grandparents and his second uncle's family are ranked before them.

At the dining table, there was a bowl of delicious noodles, but Zhuang Tunan found it tasteless and half of it ended up going into Lin Dongzhe's stomach.

After eating the noodles, Qin Hao and his team pushed the bicycles to send Zhuang Tunan to the platform. At this time, Professor Ruan and his team had also gathered. Looking at the two bicycles that were 90% new, their faces were full of joy.

"Comrade Qin, your two bicycles have solved our urgent needs. I would like to thank you on behalf of Pingyao Ancient City." Professor Ruan recognized Qin Hao at a glance and walked past Zhuang Tunan to hold Qin Hao's hand tightly.

"Professor Ruan, this car was sent to Zhuang Tunan. You should thank him."

"Haha, you should all be thanked." Professor Ruan suddenly changed the subject: "Student Qin Hao, are you interested in joining our project to protect the ancient city of Pingyao?"

The rest of the people were stunned. They had put in a lot of effort to join Professor Ruan's team. Professor Ruan also said that due to funding issues, the number of team members was strictly controlled and all of them were elites selected from the best.

Then how come you have a spot now?
"I'm sorry, Professor Ruan, I still have to take my brothers and sisters around Shanghai, as I promised them in advance..."

Professor Ruan sighed upon hearing this: "That's such a pity."

Lin Dongzhe and the other two looked at each other and smiled. They knew that Qin Hao would not abandon them.

After seeing Zhuang Tunan off, Lin Dongzhe couldn't wait to ask, "Brother Hao, where are we going to play?"

"Do you want to see lions and tigers?" Qin Hao thought about it.

"Of course I want to watch it. Where can I watch it?" Lin Dongzhe and Xiang Pengfei became excited.

"Then the first stop will be Shanghai Zoo."

Qin Hao took Lin Dongzhe and the other two to play in the Shanghai Zoo until it closed in the evening. Only then did Lin Dongzhe and Xiang Pengfei leave reluctantly.

"Brother Hao, where are we going to play tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow, let's go to the Bund."

"The Bund, Nanjing Road?"

"It's probably nearby."
