After getting the marriage certificate, she was spoiled by her rich husband

night.

The old house of the Leng family.

Leng Xiaochen's parents returned from the countryside the day before yesterday.

As soon as I learned that Manman had found her biological father.

They couldn't wait to invite the new in-laws to their home for dinner.

Ning Xiufang specially prepared a sumptuous dinner.

When everything was ready, everyone took their seats.

"Old Huo, I never thought that Manman was actually your daughter. I was shocked when I first found out."

Leng Bowen smiled, with some emotion in his eyes.

"Yes, when I first knew that Manman was my daughter, I was so excited and surprised. I never expected that I would have such an outstanding daughter." Huo Zhuozhen's face was full of relief, and the corners of his mouth rose unconsciously when he thought of this.

Su Qianman listened to their conversation, frowned slightly, and moved her eyes back and forth between the two fathers, with a look of confusion on her face.

Did these two fathers know each other before?

Why do they feel so familiar with each other?

With curiosity, she turned to look at Leng Xiaochen beside her.

"They worked together when they were young." Leng Xiaochen received her gaze and said lightly.

"Yes, Manman, your father and I were long-term partners when we were young." Leng Bowen raised his head slightly, his eyes full of nostalgia for the past, "but later, Lao Huo gradually withdrew from the business circle, and our interactions became less frequent."

"So that's how it is." Su Qianman finally understood and nodded slightly.

"Lao Leng and I got along well before. I didn't expect that we would become relatives. It's such a fate." Huo Zhuozhen smiled happily and leaned back in the dining chair.

"Since you are so close to my dad, why did you hit me at that time?" Leng Xiaochen lowered his head slightly and muttered softly.

Although the voice was small, everyone could hear it clearly in this quiet atmosphere.

When Leng Bowen and Huo Zhuozhen heard this, the smiles on their faces froze instantly, and a hint of embarrassment and panic flashed in their eyes.

Ning Xiufang noticed the strange atmosphere, glanced at the food on the table, and quickly greeted with a smile: "Come on, let's eat first, the food is getting cold."

"Well, okay." Su Qianman nodded with a smile.

Leng Bowen and Huo Zhuozhen also quickly picked up their chopsticks to eat.

Su Qianman turned her head and saw that the man next to her seemed to be still thinking about something. She touched his arm with her finger and said, "Xiaochen, it's time to eat."

Leng Xiaochen came back to his senses and frowned slightly: "Okay."

Then he picked up his chopsticks and started eating.

"Old Huo, since we are relatives now, we should visit each other more often in the future."

"Yes, dear in-laws, don't worry, we treat Manman like our own daughter and will take good care of her."

"Okay, I will definitely visit you more often. Thank you both for your love and care for Manman." Huo Zhuozhen was quite grateful to see that they were so good to their daughter.

Everyone was talking at the same time and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

Only Leng Xiaochen, who was standing aside, had a slightly gloomy face, and the light in his eyes kept flickering.

Just as he put a piece of meat into his mouth, he suddenly seemed to think of something and paused slightly in chewing.

"That's not right." Leng Xiaochen put down his chopsticks and stared at Huo Zhuozhen with deep eyes: "Father-in-law, that project was not a profitable option for your company back then. Why did you compete with me?"

Huo Zhuozhen's chopsticks holding the food suddenly stopped in mid-air, and he took them back after a moment: "I... I just want to try a new project."

"But……"

"Let's...eat first. Don't talk while eating, and don't talk while sleeping."

Leng Xiaochen was interrupted by Leng Bowen before he could finish his words.

Huo Zhuozhen nodded quickly in agreement: "Yes, let's eat first."

After saying that, he quickly picked up the chopsticks and started eating.

Leng Xiaochen stared at their panicked appearance with his cold eyes, and his expression changed.

After a while, he asked, "Dad, father-in-law, are you hiding something from me?"

Su Qianman was confused and puzzled as she listened.

Her eyes kept moving between the two fathers and Leng Xiaochen, trying to get a general idea.

But Leng Bowen and Huo Zhuozhen just kept picking up dishes and eating seriously, completely ignoring Leng Xiaochen.

Seeing that they were silent, Leng Xiaochen reached out and held Su Qianman's arm: "Manman, they must be hiding something from me. They might have conspired to beat me up."

You don't want to say it, right?

Then let Manman ask.

Anyway, they are afraid of Manman.

"Ah?" Su Qianman was stunned.

After she realized what was happening, she asked the two fathers, "Did you have anything to do with the beating of Xiaochen?"

Huo Zhuozhen became even more flustered when he heard his daughter's question. He really didn't want to lie to his daughter, so he stammered, "I...I..."

Seeing that he couldn't explain it for a long time, Su Qianman turned her gaze to Leng Bowen.

Unexpectedly, Leng Bowen also responded stutteringly.

Seeing his daughter's bright eyes staring at him, Huo Zhuozhen rubbed his hands on the table back and forth, and finally confessed: "Well, it was Lao Leng who told me to do this. He asked me to take over Xiaochen's project and teach Xiaochen a lesson."

After saying that, he let out a long sigh, but still didn't dare to look Leng Xiaochen in the eye.

After hearing what Huo Zhuozhen said, Leng Bowen looked even more embarrassed.

"Dad, why are you doing this?" Leng Xiaochen frowned, a hint of anger flashing in his eyes.

Ning Xiufang saw that her son was angry, so she quickly pulled Leng Bowen's clothes and said, "Tell the truth quickly. You have been hiding it from your son for so many years. You can't keep hiding it forever."

"Mom, you also know about this?" Leng Xiaochen looked at his mother in surprise, frowning even more tightly.

"It's not your mother's business, it's me." Seeing that his son was about to misunderstand Xiufang, Leng Bowen spoke quickly.

"Back then, I thought you would take over the family business after you returned from studying abroad, but I never thought you and Mo Beiting would start a new project without telling the family, wanting to start from scratch and abandon the family business. How could this work? The Mo family and the Leng family are both famous and prestigious families with a history of hundreds of years. How could they be ruined in your hands? So your uncle Mo and I told Lao Huo that you two were playboys who were idle all day long. Let him snatch your project and teach you a lesson so that you two can come back and take over the family business with peace of mind."

After saying this, Leng Bowen lowered his head guiltily.

"Dad, how could you do this? You're so cruel to me just for such a small thing?" Leng Xiaochen was so angry that his face turned blue, and he felt helpless: "I have been lying in the hospital for a whole month, and my body and mind have been severely damaged. Now you tell me that this is a trap set by you and Uncle Mo?"

Su Qianman opened her eyes wide and looked at Leng Xiaochen with some heartache.

Being treated like this by his own father must still be hard for him even after so many years.

Leng Bowen looked guilty and coughed twice.

Then he turned his gaze to Huo Zhuozhen and glared at him in reproach: "It's all your fault. You were so harsh on my son back then."

"You...you asked me to teach him a lesson and beat him until he was convinced, but...but he never gave in. I beat him until he couldn't move, but he still refused to give in. What could I do?" Huo Zhuozhen was panicked when he saw his son-in-law and daughter staring at him. "And I really thought he was that kind of playboy, so I wanted to teach him a lesson."

Leng Xiaochen sighed and held his forehead.

Then he stood up and said with a dark face: "Dad, Mom, father-in-law, I'm full."

Then he turned and left.

Everyone stared at his leaving back in amazement.

Just leave like that?

He must be very angry.

Who knows, the next second.

Leng Xiaochen turned back again.

Leng Bowen and Huo Zhuozhen thought he had forgiven them, and they showed awkward yet slightly happy smiles on their faces.

But Leng Xiaochen still had a dark face. He walked over and held Su Qianman's hand: "Wife, don't eat with these two cold-blooded people. Let's go out to eat."

After saying that, he took Su Qianman's hand and left.

Ning Xiufang saw that her son and daughter-in-law had left. She glared at Leng Bowen and blamed him, "It's all your fault. You gave me such a bad idea that I pissed them off."

"My dear relatives, I am full too. I will leave you now. Please enjoy your meal."

She stood up, said something to Huo Zhuozhen, and left.

Leng Bowen and Huo Zhuozhen: "......"
