Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief

Chapter 2325: Getting Angry For Nothing (2)

Wang Yang was not at all surprised by his father’s response. After all, he had exposed the truth behind the Wang family having supposedly protected him after Zhu Baoguo’s death. “Dad, this doesn’t seem to be your phone number. Have you changed your number? Don’t tell me that you borrowed someone’s phone. We’re having a long-distance call. Don’t forget to pay that person for it. It’s not too nice to use someone else’s phone for a long-distance call. If there’s nothing else, we can chat another time. The lawyer’s here. I have some things to discuss with him.”

What was there to discuss? Of course, it was about the lawsuit with Qiao Nan so that he could get back the Zhu family’s assets.

Wang Yang knew that his dad had always looked down on his mom, feeling that she had been played by a useless man even though she had such a great family background. But Wang Yang knew that his father would never dare to go against his mother no matter how much he looked down on her. Just like now, even though his uncle, Zhu Chengqi, was gone, his father could not even hold on to his own phone once his mother decided so.

They had all become used to this since that was the way things had been all these years.

Wang Yang was their son. As such, Wang Yang did have an understanding of Father Wang. One was his mother, while the other was his father. Wang Yang didn’t see anything wrong with his father taking advantage of other women, but that was not the case since Mother Zhu was his mother!

As such, Wang Yang had never thought of correcting his dad even when his dad had simply been pretending to be afraid of Mother Zhu. Eventually, that pretense had turned into reality. Anyway, his father was afraid of his mother, who had been loyal to his dad all along. There was nothing wrong with that.

Since that was the case, it wouldn’t cause much of a problem in their lives.

After hanging up, Wang Yang looked as though he had been relieved of a huge burden. Now, he was no longer fighting the lawsuit for the entire Wang family or his father’s sake. It was for himself. There was no longer the need for anyone else to interfere in the matter.

“Dear, are you alright? What did Dad say?” Li Yayan was truly afraid of her father-in-law, Father Wang. Whenever she heard his voice, Li Yayan couldn’t help but shrink her neck. The only time Li Yayan had ever held her head up high in front of her father-in-law was the day she had given birth to her son. “Dad… Dad is just angry over the lawsuit. Don’t take his words to heart. His tone is horrendous no matter who he speaks to nowadays. Dear, I’m really sorry for being so useless. I was timid and couldn’t be of any help…” That was why he had been scolded.

Hearing Li Yayan’s words, Wang Yang laughed. His father might have been scheming toward him, but he had a very good biological mother as well as a good wife. With these two women by his side, things didn’t look too bad. “Don’t worry. You should have heard what I told my dad too. My dad is terribly afraid of my mom. He won’t dare to make too much of a fuss in front of her. I won’t take his words to heart. As for the lawsuit, I’ll try my best to win it for my own sake as well as our son’s future.”

He didn’t wish for his son to have to work as hard as he did or to be compared to another kid his whole life. If that were the case, he would always be resentful of the fact that he was smarter and more outstanding than other children but still have to flatter others just because of their statuses.

No, he wouldn’t let that happen. He would do his best to let his son enjoy a high status. That way, his son would have the highest standing amongst all his friends.

He would never let his son go through the humiliation he had. “Alright, I’m hungry. Let’s eat.”

Li Yayan stared at Wang Yang blankly. “Is it really okay?” She had not dared to listen to what Wang Yang had said to her father-in-law in detail, but it wasn’t hard to tell from her father-in-law’s tone that he was angry. Every time her father-in-law got upset, he would lash out at others, whether it was her or his biological son, Wang Yang.

She had been blessed by marrying Wang Yang. Compared to other ‘brilliant’ mothers-in-law, her mother-in-law was quite good. The only thing that bothered Li Yayan was her father-in-law, Father Wang, who was old-fashioned, stubborn, and fierce. As long as things did not go his way, he would lash out at them mercilessly.

The problem was that neither she nor Wang Yang was a child. In fact, their own son was all grown up. It was alright for her father-in-law to reprimand them at times at home, but he did that even when they had guests over!

And he dared to talk about his family? Was it not embarrassing just because they were all Wangs? Where did these ridiculous ideas come from? Such situations were even more embarrassing!

But Li Yayan had no other choice since she didn’t have a good family background. No matter how much she resented her father-in-law for being so insolent, she dared not rebel against him. After all, Father Wang did not even spare his own son or grandson. Wang Yang was Li Yayan’s standard. Since Wang Yang behaved in this manner in front of Father Wang, Li Yayan had no choice but to treat him respectfully too.

It could be said that Father Wang was the only imperfection in her blissful life after her marriage.

As she scolded her father-in-law, she felt that there was no way Wang Yang enjoyed being lectured either since he was already a father himself. As such, Wang Yang had to be afraid of Father Wang, just as she was.

“It’s alright. I know what to do. Don’t worry. You’re right. If I want to further my career in the capital, we have to bring our son over. Then, I’ll bring my mom over too. You won’t mind, right? My mom was the one who raised our son. She probably won’t be able to leave him, and neither will he want to be separated from her.”

Li Yayan was much less uncomfortable with her mother-in-law than she was with her father-in-law. Even though her mother-in-law had led her son to speak ill of her in the past, she knew that her father-in-law was the main instigator behind it, not her mother-in-law. When her son was born, her mother-in-law had no intention of raising her son on her behalf. It was only after her father-in-law said something that her mother-in-law insisted on keeping her son by her side.

In order to take care of Zhu Chengqi, she had moved to the capital with Wang Yang. At that time, her mother-in-law’s first reaction had been to ask about what would happen to her grandson.
