In name only: In the name of Zhao Mengsheng's son!

"Alright, alright, I'll have someone pick you up. Just shut up!"

Zhao Zhongxin was speechless. He hung up the phone and then arranged for his driver, Chen Rong, to pick up Gao Fangfang.

Thinking of this, after getting off the bus, Zhao Zhongxin called Wu Huifen again.

"Teacher Wu, Fangfang is coming back, did you know?"

"Huh? She's coming back? When will she be back? Will she be bringing the kids?"

Wu Huifen was clearly unaware that after Zhao Zhongxin told her the time, he called Gao Yuliang, making it very clear that he wanted Gao Yuliang to leave work early because his daughter and granddaughter were coming home!

Gao Yuliang was also looking forward to it. To be honest, Gao Fangfang had been practically gone for the past ten years. Apart from seeing her once or twice a year, it really was as Wu Huifen had said, like losing a daughter!

So Gao Yuliang went home at three o'clock in the afternoon, and no one would say that he left early or anything. As soon as he got home, he saw Wu Huifen preparing the meal. Gao Yuliang was also in the mood and prepared to cook two dishes for his daughter and grandson to try.

So it was a rare occasion for the two of them to cook together, as if they had returned to the scene of husband and wife working together more than ten years ago!

Around four o'clock, Zhao Zhongxin was also picked up by Chen Rong, who then slipped away. As soon as he got in the car, the two children in the back row, the older one named Liu Chuanyue (a girl) and the younger one named Liu Chuanshu (a boy) who was seven years old, leaned out from the back row and kissed Zhao Zhongxin when they saw him sit in the front row!

"Uncle, Uncle!"

"Uncle, Uncle!"

"Ugh, you two have drooled all over me!"

Zhao Zhongxin was very upset, but Liu Kun was the most upset. He hadn't even gotten on the bus yet, and the problem was that even if he did, there wouldn't be any seats left!

He stood there completely bewildered, and eventually had no choice but to take a taxi home!

"Where's Baozi? Why didn't she come back with you?"

Zhao Zhongxin asked his cousin Liu Yangbao, and Gao Fangfang replied!

"He's very busy. He's good at sawing wood, and he's also skilled at many other musical instruments. The team wants him to be the conductor, saying the old conductor is about to retire and they want him to take over. He's working overtime every day, working on all sorts of instruments!"

"what?"

Zhao Zhongxin genuinely didn't understand what this meant. What did it mean to be a conductor? And to handle other musical instruments as well? But he didn't ask any further questions, after all, every profession is like a mountain to climb!

"Then why did you go back to Handong this time? Is your child no longer in school?"

Zhao Zhongxin asked!

"It's alright, they're not good at studying anyway, it doesn't matter whether they go to school or not. I'm just speechless, their dad's genes are really bad. One of them got into the Shanghai Conservatory of Music through an arts exam, and all they can do is saw wood. I taught them to play the piano, and well, they all say I'm abusing them. They can saw wood for three hours every day, but they don't want to play the piano for even half an hour, and they say I'm playing steel wire!"

At this point, Gao Fangfang blushed slightly and then said!

"Although I play the piano, Handong University is at least a 985 university, right? I got in through the entrance exam. Their father's genes are too strong. If they didn't go into music, they would have had a hard time getting into a second-tier university. I've already had their horoscopes read. If they don't go into music, one of them will become a nurse, and the other will become a car mechanic!"

"Hahaha, hahaha!"

Zhao Zhongxin simply couldn't stand Gao Fangfang's sharp tongue anymore; it was too cruel of her to talk about his own daughter and son like that.

"What are you laughing at? I heard from my sister-in-law that your Zhao Miao isn't very good at studying either!"

Gao Fangfang's words were like a heavy punch to Zhao Zhongxin's face.

"You... don't force me to hit you when I'm happiest!"

Zhao Zhongxin wanted to swear, but then he remembered there were children here.

"Hey, hey, hey, don't get physical! We're both over forty! I'm just taking the kids out for a two-day trip, we'll be home in two days. I'll call my godmother! I'll tell Xiaoying! I'll tell my sister-in-law!"

Gao Fangfang recalled the fear of being dominated by Zhao Zhongxin, and she brought up Zhao Zhongxin's mother, sister, and wife!

"It will work!"

Zhao Zhongxin snorted coldly, then headed straight for Gao Yuliang's house.

"Grandma, Grandpa!"

The two kids rushed inside as soon as the car was parked; they were determined to tell their grandparents today that their mom was always yelling at them!

Gao Fangfang's happy face fell, while Zhao Zhongxin said with a smile!

"You've come back, you should at least see them. Staying at my place won't work either, it's right next door!"

Gao Fangfang didn't say anything, just nodded and got off the bus!

As soon as Gao Fangfang entered, she saw Gao Yuliang holding his son up with a kind smile, while his mother held her daughter with a loving expression. Gao Fangfang felt like crying. She had never felt this way before because her parents treated her this way. But now, this only happened occasionally!

At first, I thought it was just an ordinary thing!

"Hey, braised pork? It smells like Teacher Gao's cooking. I haven't had it in at least twenty years, but I still recognized the smell!"

Zhao Zhongxin smiled when he smelled the aroma. It seems that Gao Fangfang still holds a high position in Gao Yuliang's heart!

"Yes, your teacher Gao heard that Fangfang was coming back, so she came back especially to make this for her!"

Wu Huifen said with a smile, and Gao Fangfang nodded blankly!

Perhaps because of the children, the group enjoyed their meal together in a harmonious atmosphere, and Gao Fangfang gradually joined in, as if she had rediscovered the feeling of that family from back then!

Zhao Zhongxin repeated what Gao Fangfang had said in the car, which made Gao Yuliang scratch his head. Something was wrong. This child looked just like his daughter, Gao Fangfang. How could she not be good at studying? His family was a scholarly family. He was a professor in the Department of Political Science and Law, and Wu Huifen was a professor in the Department of History. Although Gao Fangfang did not pursue a career in political science and law, she still got into a 985 university.

So Gao Yuliang didn't believe it, but why did he scratch his head later? It's because he tutored the two of them and he started to doubt his life. How could they not understand such a simple question?

Finally, Gao Yuliang came to a conclusion: his son-in-law's genes were too strong; he simply couldn't study. But then the two children gave Gao Yuliang a piece about sawing wood. Although Zhao Zhongxin didn't understand music, he still thought it sounded quite nice. But in Gao Yuliang's eyes, this was just a waste of time. His daughter was playing the piano—no, in his eyes, she was playing the steel wire.

In the end, Gao Yuliang convinced himself that as long as he was safe and alive, that was enough. He also understood the saying, "When students are all over the world, the family suffers the consequences."

He originally thought this was just an excuse used by those so-called teachers who could teach students but couldn't teach children. But today he understood. It wasn't that he couldn't teach; he had taught more than a dozen times, but still couldn't get it right. Gao Yuliang, the deputy secretary of the provincial party committee who never showed his emotions, finally broke down!
