Chapter 212 Breaking the Ice
Zhou He shook his head, not used to Zhou Zhensheng's intimacy: "I'm not going back, but you're in a hurry to send me away. Is there something shameful in your company?"
"Okay, if you don't want to reply, then don't reply. Then come back to the company with me. Don't you want to see it? I'll take you to see it today."
Zhou Zhensheng grabbed Zhou He's hand, but he was shaken off again. However, seeing that Zhou He was really following him, Zhou Zhensheng didn't care anymore.
Thinking that his wife might be very anxious, Zhou Zhensheng took out his cell phone and called Liu Feng to report that he was safe.
"Wife, He He is here with me, yes, don't worry, um... he is fine..."
Looking back at his son who was following behind him, Zhou Zhensheng continued, "He's quite capable. He came all the way here by himself. Let him stay here for a few days. I'll send him back when I'm done with my work."
"Take a leave, it doesn't matter if you delay for a few days, okay, go talk to your son."
Zhou Zhensheng handed the phone to Zhou He, but Zhou He didn't answer it, so Zhou Zhensheng put the phone to his ear.
Liu Feng kept calling out on the phone, and Zhou He finally spoke up and called out "Mom".
Hearing that it was indeed her son's voice, Liu Feng felt relieved. She complained that he was ignorant and then she started crying.
Zhou Zhensheng took the phone back and said a few words to Liu Feng, telling her not to worry and that he would take good care of their son. Only then did Liu Feng hang up the phone.
The father and son entered the company. At that time, everyone in the company had gone off work. There was not even a security guard in the lobby, only a dim light.
Taking Zhou He up to the top floor in the elevator, Zhou He looked around. This was his first time in his father's company.
It looked very ordinary and boring. There were computers everywhere in the two office areas, and there were people working in twos and threes on the computers.
Only one room inside had the light on. When I got closer, I saw a sign hanging on it that said "General Manager's Office."
After entering the office, Zhou Zhensheng casually threw his coat on the sofa, returned to his desk, poured himself a glass of water and drank it.
"There's a water dispenser over there. Go get some water if you're thirsty. Have you eaten? Are you hungry?"
Zhou He said nothing. Seeing that everything was normal in his father's office, he asked, "Where do you usually live?"
"I live here."
"Live here?" Zhou He didn't believe it: "Are you afraid to take me to see where you live?"
Zhou Zhensheng sighed, feeling a little headache, and stood up, took Zhou He out of the office and walked to the other end of the corridor.
Just diagonally opposite the suite where He Shu had lived before, he opened the door and turned on the light for Zhou He to see.
This is also a suite, where Zhou Zhensheng usually rests.
Zhou He saw that the suitcases in the house were placed next to the wardrobe, and the facilities in the house looked like someone usually lived there.
He walked over and opened the wardrobe, which was full of Zhou Zhensheng's clothes.
Zhou He glanced at him and seeing that he had no reaction, he ran to the bathroom to check. There was only a set of toiletries in there, and nothing female.
Zhou Zhensheng was a little angry at the troublesome kid before, but now seeing him checking everywhere like a search dog and even lying on the pillow to see if there were any long hairs, he suddenly found it a little funny.
Zhou He naturally found nothing. He was deflated and sat down on the edge of the bed.
Zhou Zhensheng walked over and sat down next to him, then put his arms around his son.
"You don't trust Daddy that much?"
Zhou He remained silent. Zhou Zhensheng knew that his son's attitude towards him was not formed in just one or two days, and it would probably not be easy to establish a good relationship with him.
So she patiently explained, "Dad is already over 50, and you can't even take care of him alone, so how can he have the energy to take care of others?"
"I know that Dad has been away from home for many years, which makes you feel wronged, but Dad has his own reasons."
Zhou He turned his head: "What's the reason?"
"I can't tell you now . When you grow up and I retire, Dad will give you an explanation."
Zhou He said coldly: "I am not a child anymore. My classmate's father runs a much bigger company than yours, and he is not as busy as you."
Zhou Zhensheng lowered his head and rubbed his forehead. It was impossible for a child as old as Zhou He to reveal anything to him.
"Since you don't trust me, then you can stay here for a few days and see how Dad works."
"As for school, I'll ask your mother to ask for leave for you. If I have time, I'll take you around the capital..."
After Zhou Zhensheng finished speaking, he heard Zhou He's stomach rumbling and Zhou He blushed all of a sudden.
"I'll go find something to eat and get you something."
Zhou Zhensheng stood up and left the room. Zhou He followed him to the door and peeked, and saw his father went to the office area.
He turned around and looked at the room again. It seemed that his father really lived here. Was he overthinking it?
Zhou Zhensheng quickly brought back a bowl of instant noodles and two sausages.
"Just make do with what you have for now. It's too late now. Dad will take you out for a nice meal tomorrow."
Children all like to eat instant noodles, and Zhou He is no exception. His mother rarely lets him eat it at home. But when he smelled the aroma of the instant noodles, he pursed his lips in greed.
After waiting for the noodles to be soaked with great difficulty, I didn't care how hot they were and just slurped them into my mouth.
"Slow down, Dad doesn't have anything else here, just plenty of instant noodles, plenty of it."
Zhou He was actually a little happy when he heard this. In his eyes, such things were much more attractive than normal meals.
Zhou Zhensheng looked at his son's expression and struck while the iron was hot: "Why? Usually at home, your mother doesn't give you instant noodles?"
"Well, no other snacks are allowed. You can only eat meals, milk and fruit."
The bribery value of this bowl of instant noodles exceeded Zhou Zhensheng's expectations. His son was no longer so cold when speaking to him, and took the opportunity to complain to Zhou Zhensheng.
"Your mom is doing this for your own good, but it's okay to eat it once in a while. I'll talk to your mom later."
"But you're also a good kid. It's not like your mom doesn't give you pocket money, and you didn't secretly buy those things to eat. That means you're a good and obedient kid."
After hearing this, Zhou He felt much less hostile towards Zhou Zhensheng.
In a family, the role of father is very important. Whether it is a boy or a girl, children who grow up with their father will be relatively more confident and secure.
There is no child who does not long for father's love.
Parental love and maternal love are the source of life, nourishing every detail, silently and everywhere at all times.
Father’s love is like a mountain. It may not have much presence in daily life, but it can always influence children’s choices on major issues.
Although Zhou Zhensheng is not a professional psychologist, he has inevitably learned some intrigues after fighting so many cunning enemies .
If he could really return to his family, he believed he would become a qualified father.
But unfortunately, he missed Zhou He's growth. This is a kind of helplessness. There is gain and loss.
Looking at his son wolfing down the food, Zhou Zhensheng felt very guilty towards his son.
He raised his hand and touched Zhou He's head, and said softly: "Dad knows that I don't care about you enough. I will try to spend more time with you in the future. But you have to promise Dad that you won't run away like this next time."
"No matter what happens, you can tell dad directly, don't let your mother worry about you..."
