The Dragon King's Son-in-law
A distant target

Since they had talked about it, the situation seemed clearer. The atmosphere around the dining table was not as ungainly as before.

Throughout the conversation, Hao Ren learns that his interior design was done by Zhao Hongyu himself. Zhao Hongyu's normal identity was a designer and was well-known in the designer community.

After conversing further, Hao Ren surprisingly discovered that one of the ten markers in the Eastern Ocean City was also the work of Zhao Yanzi's mother. It was a stadium showcased in promotional images from East Ocean University admissions brochures. The stadium was completed last year.

"His father was a successful businessman and his mother was an outstanding designer. Such a family is clearly rich. Although they did not have a secret identity, a little girl like Zhao Yanzi still had assets that she could be proud of." Hao Ren ate while thinking.

While eating, Zhao Hongyu was the one who spoke the most with Hao Ren. Zhao Guang continued to eat beside him and sometimes said something. Zhao Yanzi lowered his head, ate and chewed his food heavily like he was not eating rice but eating Hao Ren.

'The so-called meeting with the in-laws might be like this, '" Hao Ren answered their question and thought.

"Have your parents left the country?" Zhao Hongyu asked Hao Ren.

"Yes, they should be back next month" Hao Ren replied.

Zhao Hongyu thought and said, "How was the meeting between the two families when your parents returned?"

Hao Ren's heart fell. He finally accepted the fact he had to be with Zhao Yanzi for a long time, but Zhao Hongyu's new request again made him feel uneasy.

"If mom and dad find out I got a middle-class student fiancee when they left, I'm not sure what they'll react to…"

"Since everything has been decided, it's normal for the two families to meet," Zhao Hongyu said seeing Hao Ren's hesitation.

Hao Ren looked at Zhao Hongyu's gentle countenance and from the sight of his excited eyes Hao Ren knew Zhao Hongyu really wanted to settle the matter. After all from his point of view, the old man still had a hand in this sort of thing.

"I didn't say I'd marry her!" Zhao Yanzi straightened his head and finally said something..

"You have to take responsibility for the mistakes you make. If you don't run away, why is there such a problem? Do you want someone else to suffer the consequences of your mistakes?" Zhao Hongyu's facial expression was still gentle, but her tone changed sharply.

Zhao Yanzi stopped talking because he knew he was wrong. But he was very unwilling if he should marry this "'uncle" just because of such a mistake.

"Hao Ren is wise, and I am happy with him," Zhao Hongyu looked at Zhao Yanzi and said," You are no longer a child and you cannot always lose your temper like a child . You have to take the responsibility you have to take. How long can your father and I protect you? We also want you to mature from what happened. You can't keep acting like a spoiled child."

Zhao Yanzi looked at Zhao Hongyu with a sad look on his face as he heard Zhao Hongyu. He wanted to cry but did not want to embarrass himself in front of Hao Ren. All he could do was bite his lip and accept it.

Seeing Zhao Hongyu advising Zhao Yanzi, Zhao Guang his father remained silent. He clearly agreed with what Zhao Hongyu said.

Hao Ren felt there was another intent behind the way that old man Zhao Yanzi had resolved this matter. However, Zhao Yanzi was still too small to understand.

" Are they trying to use this opportunity to entrust Zi to me? Could it be that with their abilities and background, there were still some dangers that they could not talk about?" thought Hao Ren.

"More." Zhao Hongyu looked up and looked at Hao Ren, " Zi still has the disposition of a child, please be patient with him in the future."

" Yes, I know," at this moment, Hao Ren could only agree.

Looking at Zhao Yanzi's red eyes like he was willing to cry, Zhao Guang felt bad even though he put on his poker face. He said to her, "Go get some rest, if you're done."

Zhao Yanzi nodded and ran upstairs. His footsteps made a series of "tap tap" sounds"

Hao Ren looked at his little figure and turned back to look at Zhao Hongyu and Zhao Guang.

" Let him be alone for a while," Zhao Hongyu said.

Hao Ren smiled awkwardly with his head down.

Actually Hao Ren did not have a good impression of that ill-natured little girl, but he could not tell her flaws in front of her parents. Thus, Hao Ren thought hard to think about Zhao Yanzi's good nature.

" It's pretty. Although he was temperamental, he was still very sweet," he thought about it for a second and said. Beautiful and sweet were probably the only forces she could think of.

'You're older than him. Please take care of him for us. Her father and I were usually busy with all sorts of things and that was why we didn't have enough time to take care of her. This made his nature even more stubborn and arrogant," Zhao Hongyu looked at Hao Ren and said bluntly.

"Good." Hao Ren nodded. Although he did not like the little chili (the way the Chinese say someone fierce and difficult to deal with. Usually applied to girls) Zhao Yanzi, he was deeply moved by the care of his parents.

He could actually understand Zhao Yanzi's feelings. When he was a child, his parents were busy working and did not take care of him much. He is more independent and selfish. Luckily he has a caring grandmother who always takes care of him, and allows him to have a better childhood memory.

"Go upstairs and accompany him." Zhao Hongyu pointed towards the stairs with her lips.

"All right." Hao Ren immediately put down his chopsticks and walked towards the wooden stairs towards the second floor.

Some abstract paintings hung on the walls along the stairs. Hao Ren walked slowly, feeling like he was inside an art gallery. Through a small window in the corner on the second floor, Hao Ren saw a quiet and beautiful back yard and was unable to help but admire Zhao Hongyu's design sense.

Zhao Yanzi's bedroom was the first room in the corner of the second floor. Hao Ren could tell it from the little black toy hanging on the door.

He stood at the door and knocked.

There was no sound from inside.

"Hello, you're not gonna let me in?" Hao Ren stood there for a few seconds and asked.

"You can complain to me if you want to." Zhao Yanzi's voice full of sadness came from within.

Hao Ren smiled and took a few small steps with the aim of making the illusion he was walking down.

Duk duk duk.a fast running sound came from the bedroom. Zhao Yanzi thought Hao Ren had actually come downstairs to complain to him and rushed to open the door.

He ran outside the bedroom, wanting to drag Hao Ren off the stairs, but he did not anticipate Hao Ren still standing at the door. So he ran straight to his chest.

The soft and small body did not hurt Hao Ren but rather tickled his stomach.

Hao Ren caught the sloppy little girl's shoulder with his hand and looked at her, "Am I the kind of person who pits at others?"

Zhao Yanzi raised his head and blushed. Even though he had misjudged, he still said stubbornly, "You look like that"

Hao Ren smiled and did not argue. He pushed her away a little and walked to her bedroom.

"Hey! Where's your manners? Don't go into my bedroom." Zhao Yanzi stood at the door and looked at Hao Ren with disdain.

"You have a problem with me entering my fiance's bedroom?" Hao Ren turned his head, looked at it deliberately and said.

"You.." Zhao Yanzi looked at Hao Ren. He was angry but could not bring out his anger.

His eyes were red and looked like he was really crying. Hao Ren saw this and did not want to really bother him. He avoided his angry eyes and pretended to look around Zi's bedroom casually.

Through floor-to-ceiling windows, the small bedroom can enjoy an ancient themed view of the flowers and trees. Sunlight flows in from the outside and shines on the transparent glass. This is the kind of beauty that can blind a person's eyes.

A light green fish tank was placed on the edge of the window with some goldfish inside. Large framed calligraphy frames hanging over the bed give it a unique and artistic atmosphere

However, the young khaki walls show off the comfort of the room, and the teddy bear especially proves that the owner of this bedroom is still a little girl in need of attention and care.
