Seizing Dreams [B2]

Chapter 146.2

Zhou Laichun stopped talking. Zhou Sheng mocked, "What the hell are you acting for? Don't you just want to prove yourself? Prove yourself because you don't want her to make cutting remarks about you anymore, to stop ridiculing you since it harms your self-esteem? Otherwise, why else would you keep flaunting all that dirty money of yours in front of her all day? Wasn't it because you suffered a heavy blow and wanted to go back to regain your face? But what happened in the end?"

"What happened?" Zhou Sheng sighed, "She paid zero attention to you. She has forgotten all about you a fucking long time ago. She's having the time of her life now!"

The clear and crisp sound of a slap rang out. Zhou Laichun raised his hand, and finally, after so many years, he had once again slapped Zhou Sheng.

After getting hit, Zhou Sheng didn't get angry and instead burst out laughing.

"Is this because you got hit by me that day on the divorce and have never forgotten about it all these years, and now you finally found the chance to pay it back to me?" Zhou Sheng took a wet towel and casually wiped his face. He smiled, "Interesting. Okay, our debts are settled."

Zhou Laichun just sat down, panting. He shut his eyes tight and couldn't stop trembling.

"Dad." Zhou Sheng said seriously, "Do you think that divulging this news to me today would deal a huge blow to me or what? It really didn't. Well, I did feel a little bit upset just now, but it wasn't because of money. But after thinking through it carefully, it's pretty good this way. At least you won't be trying to arrange my life for me again for a long time."

"All right." Zhou Laichun said, "At the very least, keep in mind that this is the path you chose. Don't hate me in the future and say that I didn't give you anything. I just wanted to let you know that no one in this world is unique and irreplaceable. Even if you're my son..."

Zhou Sheng said, "Drink ba, don't talk anymore. You're being too weak today." As he spoke, he poured the last bit of residual wine for Zhou Laichun.

Zhou Laichun stared at Zhou Sheng in disbelief. Zhou Sheng pondered for a moment before saying, "Dad, when comparing a chef like your Shixiong who opened a shop and reached the pinnacle of his own profession, and you who became a big boss who's insufferably arrogant and throws money at anyone you don't like, who do you think is more amazing?"

Zhou Sheng looked back at the kitchen and said, "Migrant workers eat here, students eat here, those going to work and getting off work eat here, those who just pass by eat here as well. He has no fame, and he has no money either." After saying that, he smiled at his father, "But in my eyes, he lives in a much more amazing way than you. I know I can't convince you. Neither of us can convince the other, so let time prove it ba."

Zhou Laichun said, "Over the years, I've always been thinking about one problem."

Zhou Sheng frowned and studied Zhou Laichun.

Zhou Laichun, "I don't know what I did wrong. Son, I'm asking you seriously: how on earth did Dad let you down?"

"You're drunk." Zhou Sheng said, "Go back ba, don't talk anymore."

Zhou Laichun raised his hand and made a gesture. He said, "I'll definitely teach your future younger brother well. I can't repeat the mistake I made with you again..."

"You really want me to say it?" Zhou Sheng grinned bitterly, "Then I'll tell you the truth."

Zhou Laichun looked at Zhou Sheng, looking both dazed and intoxicated. Zhou Sheng said seriously, "His birth was a mistake in the first place, because you're only giving birth to him for a certain purpose. I don't know what he'll be like in the future, but you need to understand one thing — I, my Mum, Xiao Qin, and the kid that isn't born yet that I don't care what he'll be called when he's born......we're your family, we're your dear ones."
