Chapter 300 Positive Energy
"I missed you so much, so I came to see you," Zhang Liling said flashing her father a smile.
"You came to see me?" Zhang Renshu asked with an unbelievable expression on his face.
Just how many times did they argue over the phone because of Fang Bingwen, and here she was in his house saying that she came to see him?
Zhang Renshu found it hard to believe. Was it even possible for her to miss him?
She must have come for something.
"Of course. Or am I no longer welcome in my father's house?" She asked and just then, the servant returned with a new set of plates and laid them out in front of her, before going ahead to serve her some food.
Zhang Renshu threw his face to the side, totally ignoring her. But that meant that he wasn't stopping her from dropping by anytime she wanted.
"Dad, can I take it that I am allowed to come and go as I please?" Zhang Liling asked the corner of her lips curled, with her gaze briefly resting on her stepmother.
Feeling her gaze on her, Shi Wenqian who was patiently waiting for Zhang Renshu's response with her ears to the ground, raised her head to meet Zhang Liling's gaze.
Just seeing that smirk at the ends of her lips made her blood boil, and she was tempted to take the smile off her face.
"Did you come here to make me talk too much? Have I ever stopped you from coming here?" Zhang Renshu retorted.
Ignoring his anger, Zhang Liling tilted her head to the side as she turned to the only servant in their space.
"Did you hear him? Now go get my luggage from the sit-out and take it into one of the best guest rooms."
Instantly, the servant left to do as instructed.
Normally, she would have glanced at Shi Wenqian to receive instructions from her since they (servants) were under her, but as the head of the family had given his consent for his daughter to come and stay at will, she had to obey straight away.
"Why staying in the guest room, what happened to your bedroom?" Zhang Mingyu asked while giving her a side glance.
This was the same question Zhang Renshu was going to ask, but he beat him to it.
"Because the guest room is bigger, and I don't have any good memories from staying in that place," Zhang Liling replied, instantly earning a glare from Shi Wenqian.
Everyone turned back to continue eating after discovering that they were better off without questioning her.
A good number of the responses she gave almost called for a quarrel or a fight.
Who knows if that was the reason she returned?
Zhang Renshu was tempted to ask how long she was going to stay, but that didn't seem proper as he had already given his consent for her to come and go as she pleased.
The rest of the breakfast continued in peace with Zhang Liling eating quietly and everything her spoon could grab.
She seemed like she had been starving for a long time, an action that almost prompted Zhang Renshu to ask if Fang Bingwen was starving her.
'Is the Fang boy starving her?'
That thought was already at the tip of his tongue as he watched her, just a little more push and they would come rolling off, but he held himself back at last.
That question would be as good as him admitting that he had approved of her relationship with the Fang Family, but he still wanted to keep his pride.
All this while, he had been quiet about it, which could mean silent agreement, but coming to make a comment that would indirectly show his approval, was what he wanted to avoid.
After breakfast, Zhang Liling asked the servant that took her luggage away to take her to the guest room, while having in mind to change to another space if she wasn't satisfied with the room.
Fortunately, the room was to her satisfaction, as it had an S-class setting, and could be compared to her father's bedroom.
The only difference between the two was that her father's bedroom was named 'Master's bedroom' while the one she was currently occupying was called, 'Guest room' apart from that, there was nothing else.
Going into her new room, she had a good look at the place before sitting on the couch and taking off her shoes.
*******
Shi Wenqian was huffing mad when she strode to her bedroom.
She couldn't believe that Zhang Renshu allowed Zhang Liling to do what she wanted.
What happened to scolding her a bit? Did he forget how to do that?
Shi Wenqian had at least expected him to scold her at least, but to her greatest disappointment, he was calm, which made her furious.
"So, he is finally accepting her marrying into the Fang Family? Zhang Renshu, you are a bully!" she cursed before picking up her phone to make a call.
*******
After speaking with Mr. Fang over the phone to tell him about her arrival, and her father's response to seeing her, she talked a bit about her business before ending the call.
Next, Zhang Liling phoned her mother and was lucky to get her on the line.
It was still in the early hours of the morning, and she seemed to have forgotten about the time difference before making the call.
"Mum, I don't think Dad will have any problem with you giving me the shares."
"Even if he doesn't like the idea, he can't do anything about it because I have the right to do what I want with my shares." Song Jujing replied as she got out of bed and walked into her bathroom.
p
She sounded as if she has been awake for a long time.
"That's cool, but I still prefer that he doesn't put up a fight with us. We can't give room for Shi Wenqian to have control over him."
No matter what, Zhang Liling wanted to win Zhang Renshu to her side even after fighting with him, and this was one of the reasons she came back, just so she could test the waters and no what to do if there was a huge change in his attitude toward her.
Fortunately, she didn't have to worry as his response was perfect.
