Chen Xuan hurriedly gave Zhang Jun a look, and only then did Zhang Jun realize that he had to step in to stop the topic from continuing.
"Big sister, Xiao Hui, let's hurry and go eat."
"Otherwise, the food will get cold. We can chat while eating."
Zhang Jun smiled and gestured to them.
"Yes, yes, yes, let's eat first. Look at , just busy talking."
Zhang Ru nodded with a smile, "Xiao Hui, let's go eat together."
"Yiyi, Dongzi, don't be shy. Treat grandpa's house as your own ho."
Xiao Yiyi and Dongzi both had awkward smiles, following closely behind Chen Xuan and Lin Wanxi, looking extrely nervous.
At the dining table, things started off normal, talking about past events.
Zhang Ru and Zhang Hui were filled with emotion, and Zhang Dehou couldn't help but sigh lightly, shaking his head with a hint of regret.
Talking about these topics had nothing to do with Chen Xuan and the others, so they could eat in peace.
But as they talked, the topic shifted back to them.
"It's rare for us to gather today, so I want to share my thoughts."
"Yiyi has graduated, and after the new year, I plan to marry her off."
"Chen Xuan, is that okay with you?"
Zhang Hui looked at Chen Xuan with a smile, imdiately drawing the "battle line" to him.
Chen Xuan grimaced; this was a powder keg!
A slight misstep, and it would fully explode!
He had to be cautious with his response!
"I certainly have no problem, but..."
Chen Xuan turned his head towards Lin Wanxi, "We also need to ask Yiyi's cousin's opinion, right?"
A clever response, deflecting the matter without showing any flaw.
Zhang Hui naturally didn't catch the subtle hint and looked at Lin Wanxi with a smile, "Yes, indeed we should ask Wanxi's opinion."
"Wanxi, you are Yiyi's cousin! Now that Yiyi is about to get married, you also need to hurry up a bit!"
Lin Wanxi quickly responded, "Aunt, please don't worry about my affairs."
"Didn't we agree on our way here not to bring up matters related to ?"
"Alright, alright, we won't bring it up. You are just too career-minded." Zhang Hui shook her head with a helpless smile.
Just when it seed the topic could safely end, Zhang Xiangyang untily added, "Does Yiyi have a boyfriend? When will she bring him over to et us?"
As soon as he said this, Chen Xuan and Lin Wanxi's eyes widened, having a bad feeling.
Xiao Yiyi and Dongzi also beca nervous, directly pointing the spotlight back at Chen Xuan.
Zhang Jun shivered all over; this kid was deliberately setting a trap!
"Where do you get so much to say! Shut up!"
Zhang Jun shouted coldly.
"I was just asking, what's the big deal?" Zhang Xiangyang said with a dissatisfied look.
Zhang Hui just wanted to speak, but then saw Zhang Jun fly into a rage and kick Zhang Xiangyang to the ground.
"You dare talk back! I'll beat you to death!" Zhang Jun went over and started beating Zhang Xiangyang violently.
"Dad, have you gone mad? What are you doing!" Zhang Xiangyang was full of grievances and confusion.
Zhang Ru and Zhang Hui were dumbfounded, having no idea what was going on.
They quickly got up to intervene, "Xiao Jun, what are you doing, showing your temper in front of us!"
"Xiangyang didn't say anything wrong, why beat him up! That's outrageous!"
"Second Brother, what you did is wrong; Xiangyang was just curious and asked, what's wrong with that? Isn't it normal?"
Zhang Jun couldn't explain his position, and said coldly: "Xiangyang, get out of here and go reflect in the study! Don't co out today!"
Zhang Xiangyang dared not defy his father's order, left with repressed emotions, and went to the study.
"Sigh, sorry you had to see that."
Zhang Jun waved slightly, smiling bitterly: "It's not because of this, but I warned him not to speak a word unless spoken to when people are present."
"He obviously forgot my warning and talked back to ! That's why I hit him as punishnt!"
The topic was quickly derailed.
Zhang Hui and Zhang Ru puzzledly asked, "Why is that?"
Zhang Jun said angrily, "It's because he got into trouble outside and caused our family a lot of loss by saying the wrong thing! If we don't strictly discipline him, he'll surely cause a big ss again."
Zhang Hui shook her head with a smile, "Second Brother, isn't your discipline a bit too strict?"
"You can't expect Xiangyang to be mute and say nothing."
Zhang Ru also spoke up for her nephew, "Yes, Xiao Hui and I are not outsiders; there's no need to be so concerned in front of us."
"You really did go a bit too far! You shouldn't have punished Xiangyang like that."
Zhang Jun dryly smiled, "Big sister, you're right, let's eat first and let's consider this incident behind us."
Chen Xuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, giving Zhang Jun an approving look.
At a critical mont, the "father teaching son" act effectively shifted the topic away, brilliantly done.
Let's hope the conversation doesn't circle back to that topic again…
