Chapter 395, Weight: [You have a harmonious family]

Xiuyi sat aside, his eyes still calm and peaceful, which made Zhuo feel at a loss and scratched his face.

"…What does Dad want to tell me?"

"Well, seeing that you have such a good relationship with Romanov, I'm happy for you."

"Thank you."

Xiuyi's voice was not teasing, but rather one that showed appreciation and reassurance. So Zhuo's tone of voice was no longer aggressive when he answered.

Zhuo knew that his father was not the type to ask questions, but when he thought that the question might be related to his love relationship, he couldn't help feeling awkward and embarrassed.

However, the problem that Zhuo thought did not occur. Xiuyi just smiled happily and said, "Having a good relationship is a good thing." As a result, Zhuo's tone was no longer angry, and his momentum was lost.

"…Dad really doesn't say anything."

"You're the one who gets embarrassed and makes a scene when I say it."

"No way."

As if everything was seen through, Zhuo turned his eyes away in shame, and then he heard a burst of laughter.

"And it looks like nothing has happened yet."

The voice was full of certainty, in a sense even more so than the mother's. Zhuo hummed and looked at Shuichi, and was greeted with the same smile as always.

"I shouldn't say anything about this, right? This is your business, and you must have considered it carefully. This is your advantage, but it's also where you'll suffer a loss."

"You can't just take what you have now just because you're afraid of being at a disadvantage..."

"Yeah. He's so rational even though he's only in high school. My son has grown up. But I know how much you like her."

“…It’s not that exaggerated.”

"Hahaha, that's how it is."

"Fortunately, she is also a good child, so I can feel relieved." Xiuyi smiled for a while, then suddenly stopped smiling and stared at Zhuo.

"That's right, Zhuo."

"Ok?"

"Don't worry about money, okay?"

After hearing this, Zhuo froze.

Zhuo and Ling had a consensus that they would get married in the future, so Zhuo chose to cherish Ling's body and future at present, and did not rush to obey his desire to have a physical relationship. What happened last night was also based on understanding between the two parties.

Then came the practical issues - matters of expenses, matters concerning Zero's friends, and so on.

Ling doesn't have many friends, maybe just the few people in the nanny group. If possible, Zhuo hopes to get blessings from all of them on that day so that Ling won't have any regrets. So...what should I do about Lu Mingze...

Besides, getting married naturally involves money. Zhuo himself has thought about the wedding, housing, investment in opening a shop, and other issues that arise after marriage. It is not just a dream to get married and live in this big city.

Zhuocai froze involuntarily, not expecting his father to tell him this. Xiuyi smiled bitterly, as if he had expected it.

"As you and her parents, I want to wish you all the best. I hope that children like Romanov can have a carefree and happy life, and I also hope that my son can be happy. Please let us help you with this."

"...I am an adult now. Shouldn't we rely on ourselves for these things?" "Then how long do we have to wait?"

"..."

Speaking of this, it’s still a bit embarrassing.

It's all up to you. You'll probably have to wait two or three years after entering society to make these preparations. Even if Ling may not care, Zhuo doesn't want to miss the wedding that women dream of, and wants to see Ling's skirt and Shiromuku.

As for the fact that he and Ling have extraordinary abilities... that's true, but the ways to make money quickly are all written into the law, and Zhuo obviously won't do anything illegal.

As for future ideas, a milk tea shop is naturally one of them, but it also requires start-up capital, and it may not make money... If it doesn't make money, it will have to start working all over again.

...Using the great sage, ability, and words to earn money... Zhuo had no idea. It was obviously impossible to say that he couldn't make money, but choosing those ways to make money would require paying something else, such as freedom... This was contrary to Zhuo's original purpose.

Therefore, it has been difficult to make progress in this area.

Zhuo knew that this would make Ling wait and suffer from it.

Because of this, Zhuo found it difficult to speak too much to Ling, which allowed Ling to hint at marriage first.

"Do you really want Romanov to wait? You may not have seen it before. The way she looked at me and Sa Chiko was an understatement. It was the first time I saw brilliance in that child's eyes. Time is especially precious to girls."

"Well...but."

Even though Ling's body might be suspended, Zhuo couldn't deny that her time was valuable.

"To me, the wedding is the beginning of your journey and the last great gift your parents can give you. After all, your lovely son and daughter are leaving their parents' hands and living on as husband and wife, so it's best if we do our best to help with this matter."

After saying this with a smile, Shuichi took a sip of coffee to moisten his throat and continued.

"Of course, if you decide to rely on yourself, I will support you; otherwise, let us give you the blessing of the Romanov parents."

Zhuo didn't know whether Ling had admitted something to them when he was not around, or whether Shuichi himself saw this, but Saechi and Shuichi seemed to have understood Ling's family background and were willing to take care of her for her parents. It was obvious that the two were really satisfied with Ling, and therefore loved her, just like their own daughter and daughter-in-law.

Just like his father said, he wanted to give Ling the love that his parents lacked. Therefore, Zhuo understood that although he said he was willing to compromise, he actually had no intention of giving in.

Shuichi seemed to see through Zhuo's thoughts of "Is this really okay?" and smiled as he casually stroked Zhuo's hair.

"Ever since you were little, you didn't like to act like a spoiled child or ask for favors from others. Sa Chiko is fine, but I don't have much chance to fulfill my responsibilities as a father. Actually, there's nothing wrong with it. The child is about to fly away, so let me do what a parent should do."

"I've gotten enough from you."

"No way, I didn't even see him going through a rebellious phase. Instead, he was thinking about starting a family and being independent. His parents must be very lonely, right?"

Xiuyi's hands kept fiddling, and he seemed to have no intention of stopping, and Zhuo did not stop him.

He felt itchy and embarrassed, but not disgusted. His trust and sense of security in his parents made him accept this behavior frankly.

"You've become a father, so just show me your grandson's face. Wait until your own lives are stable, then come and be filial to your parents. Fortunately, Sa Chiko and I are still healthy. We usually take care of our health, and our family is relatively long-lived. Until you die, you can come back to visit us every year."

Xiuyi smiled and treated Zhuo as a child.

The feeling of "It's so good to be born their son" came to his mind again. Zhuo lowered his brows and willingly accepted the treatment of a child.
