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

Along the way, Zhao Zhongxin and Li Hang chatted happily. When they arrived at the military compound, Li Hang and Zhao Zhongxin walked into a small villa together.

"Big brother! Mom, big brother's back!"

Zhao Zhongxin recognized her at a glance; this was his younger sister, Zhao Ying, born in 81, twelve years younger than him! She was six years old this year! Although this was Zhao Zhongxin's first meeting with her since his transmigration, he still felt a sense of familiarity!

Although Zhao Ying sounded happy, she didn't dare to get close to her brother. Last year during the Spring Festival, even though she was still young, she could sense that her brother disliked her, and she didn't know why!

The reason is simple: Zhao Zhongxin felt it was unfair. He was sent to his grandfather's house when he was just one year old and was raised by his grandparents. Although he was the son of a high-ranking official and had no shortage of food and drink, he lacked love.

By the time his father settled down, Zhao Zhongxin was already in junior high school. Beijing's educational resources are definitely the best, so Zhao Zhongxin stayed in Beijing. This led him to feel that his parents didn't like him and were unwilling to take him over. "Since you don't like me, why should I give you a nice face?"

So every time they meet, they start arguing after just a few words, which is why Li Hang's first words are, "Don't argue with your dad!"

The reason why he was so cold to his younger sister was that he thought, "Why should my sister be raised by you since she was little, while I have to stay at my grandparents' house?"

However, this was no problem for Zhao Zhongxin, who had transmigrated from another world! He understood many things. In the original owner's memories, his parents had everything they needed, except for him being by his side!

"Lele (Zhao Ying's nickname)! Brother, do you have any cigarettes here? Pshaw, brother, do you want some candy?"

Zhao Zhongxin almost accidentally offered a cigarette to his sister! Luckily, he reacted quickly and pulled out a piece of chocolate!

This is what he bought. He's really rich. He came to study, and his wealthy grandmother gave him a thousand yuan. This was in 86, when the average worker's monthly wage was only 90 yuan!

"Wow, chocolate! Mom won't let me eat it! She says I have cavities!"

Lele's eyes lit up; kids all love sweets!

"Then you can eat a little less, just one piece a day! Here you go!"

Zhao Zhongxin patted his sister's head! At this moment, a young woman came out of the kitchen. She was very well-maintained and looked to be in her thirties. This was his mother, Liu Lan!

Liu Lan smiled at Zhao Zhongxin, feeling a little awkward. She had been scolded by her son many times before, but seeing that Zhao Zhongxin and her sister got along well, she felt a little relieved!

"Xinxin's back! Come, come, sit down! Mom made your favorite sweet and sour carp (not West Lake Vinegar Fish, but Shandong-style sweet and sour carp)."

Liu Lan said with a smile, and Zhao Zhongxin nodded!

"Thank you, Mom. Where's Dad?"

This word "Mom" made Liu Lan extremely happy. Zhao Zhongxin hadn't called her "Mom" for a very long time, and she knew she owed her eldest son a lot!

"The commander is in a meeting and won't be back until tonight. Hmm, it seems I'm not needed here anymore, sister-in-law. I'll be going now."

Li Hang said with a smile, and Zhao Zhongxin was a little confused when he heard this. What did he mean by "we don't need you here anymore"?

"Huh? Uncle Li, what do you mean by that?"

Zhao Zhongxin asked!

"Oh, it's nothing. Your dad said if you and your mom start arguing every time you meet, I'll have to hold you down! Hehe!"

Li Hang had just chatted with Zhao Zhongxin the whole way and found that Zhao Zhongxin had indeed changed a lot, so he told the truth.

"Huh? Hahaha!"

Zhao Zhongxin was speechless. This really was his biological father! No wonder he had followed him all the way here!

"Let's go, sister-in-law!"

After Li Hang finished speaking, he walked out with a grin, and Liu Lan nodded with a smile.

"Okay, take care, Xiao Li!"

After Li Hang left, Zhao Zhongxin said to Liu Lan!

"Mom, I want to apologize. Please forgive the rebellious behavior of a teenager! I know you and Dad have always cared about me, but you just haven't had the time! I was wrong before!"

Zhao Zhongxin apologized on behalf of the original owner. In fact, the original owner did hate his parents, but that wasn't entirely true. He was just a child who longed for his parents' love. Every time they argued, he would regret it. He thought that this would attract his parents' attention, but it was often the other way around that he hurt everyone else!

That's why Zhao Mengsheng wanted to send Zhao Zhongxin to study in Handong! To make up for his son's shortcomings! Otherwise, for a family like Zhao Zhongxin's, any school he wanted to attend would be a simple matter of a word!

Upon hearing this, Liu Lan burst into tears and hugged Zhao Zhongxin tightly! Seeing her mother hug her brother, Lele also put down the chocolate, took a step forward, and hugged her brother's leg!

Zhao Zhongxin was also moved. He thought of his mother, the mother who raised him! The three of them were like that, and it seemed that Zhao Zhongxin had found something he had lost all those years ago!

After lunch, Zhao Zhongxin took his younger sister around to play, and when they discovered that there was a motorcycle at home, they immediately took it out for a spin!

Lele was initially quite scared, but thrills can't be bought; sitting on the motorcycle, screaming "Wow!" was so exciting!

When Zhao Zhongxin brought Lele back, the little girl's two pigtails were gone, and her face was covered in soot. She had been playing and tumbling in the park, and the once quiet little girl had turned into this. Liu Lan was both amused and exasperated, but as long as the two siblings were happy, that was all that mattered!

Zhao Zhongxin had just finished showering when Liu Lan called him to eat. He had only sat down and taken a couple of bites when the sound of a car came from the doorway! A middle-aged man in a Type 85 military uniform walked in! The Zhao Mengsheng of today was no longer the effeminate young man who had just joined the company. He had experienced the baptism of the Sino-Vietnamese War, and his eyes were resolute. He had broad shoulders and a straight back, and exuded confidence!

"dad!"

Zhao Zhongxin put down his chopsticks, stood up, and said, "Dad!" Zhao Mengsheng was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, and his eyes instantly softened. He had heard from Li Hang that his son had changed a lot and could communicate normally, but he thought his old subordinate was only reporting good news and not bad. He had originally wanted to be a strict father, but his son was going against him; he wanted to be a loving father, but his son ignored him! Now, his son was actually calling him "Dad"! How could he not be happy?

"Sit down, are you getting used to it? University? I wanted to go with you to register, but I was worried it might make a bad impression!"

Zhao Mengsheng was, after all, a man. Although he was happy inside, he wouldn't show it.

"I understand, I'm used to it, it's just that it's a bit too hot in Handong, it's cooler up north!"

Zhao Zhongxin said with a smile!

"That's normal, you'll get used to it! Why didn't you wait for me to eat?"

Zhao Mengsheng saw that his wife and son had already started eating, so he asked a question!

"My son and daughter are hungry, and when they're hungry, they need to eat! Is that not allowed?"

Liu Lan retorted to him, she couldn't stand it. What was her husband pretending for? Actually, he was overjoyed when his son called him "Dad," but he was putting on airs!

"Okay, okay, let's eat first!"

Zhao Mengsheng smiled but didn't say anything. Zhao Zhongxin talked about his future aspirations at the dinner table, making his mother and sister laugh uncontrollably.
