Serve as Contrast Team in a ‘Dad with Baby’ Show

The main residence of the Lin family.

The location here is not remote, but the surrounding is very quiet. The whole house looks simple, but it is actually one of the most expensive houses in the entire city of C. If it is put up for auction, it will definitely fetch a sky-high price.

Lin Cheng walked into the gate of Lin's house, and the butler was already waiting at the door.

"Young master, the old man and the others are already in the dining room." The housekeeper took the coat from Lin Cheng's hand and said.

At this time, there were three people sitting in the dining room.

Lin Yuanchang, the old man of the Lin family, sat at the main seat.

On the right side of the old man sat a man and a woman, namely Lin Cheng's second uncle Lin Zhenming and his wife Yang Xuefen.

Seeing Lin Cheng walking in, Yang Xuefen put on a fake smile on her face, and said deliberately: "Lin Cheng, you are finally back, come and sit down, our whole family is waiting for you, and we haven't moved our chopsticks yet."

Hearing Yang Xuefen's words, Lin Cheng's expression did not change, but Zhou Butler who was following behind him frowned.

—What does Yang Xuefen mean by saying this at this time? Let the old man think that Lin Cheng is ignorant, and let the elders of the whole family wait?

At this time, Lin Zhenming gave his wife a warning look: "If you can't speak, just say a few words."

After all, Lin Zhenming turned towards Lin Cheng and said with a normal expression: "Your second aunt is like this, don't take it to heart, come and sit down."

Lin Cheng walked over and called Lin Yuanchang, the leader, "Grandpa". As for Lin Zhenming and his wife next to him, they ignored it.

Mr. Lin glared at Lin Cheng, and snorted softly, "Why, you know you're back? I thought you wouldn't come back until I needed someone to carry the coffin. "

"Didn't it be grandpa that you asked Dr. Li to deliberately post a message in Moments that only I can see, saying that you were seriously ill and fooled me back?" Lin Cheng said calmly without saving face for Mr. Lin.

Seeing that his little trick was exposed again, Mr. Lin seemed to have gotten used to it, pursed his mouth indifferently, and said solemnly: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

"Okay, since we're here, let's have a meal together." Mr. Lin said casually, and asked someone to add a pair of bowls and chopsticks to Lin Cheng.

As everyone knows, the table specially prepared by the kitchen staff, most of which are Lin Cheng's favorite meals, has already betrayed his true mood.

Yang Xuefen, who was completely ignored, rolled her eyes silently.

—

The four people at the dinner table had their own thoughts, and the meal was extraordinarily 'quiet'.

Halfway through the meal, Mr. Lin suddenly glanced at Lin Zhenming and his wife, and asked casually, "I heard that there is a problem with a batch of goods at the port in Dongcheng?"

Hearing this, Lin Zhenming was taken aback: "What's the problem?"

"I didn't hear the manager over there report that there was something wrong with the goods, did you..." Dad, you heard it wrong.

Lin Zhenming only spoke half of what he said before he was interrupted by the old man's cold snort.

"Hmph, you are not asked to be in charge of the business of the port to sit at home and act as a hands-off shopkeeper. If there is any problem with the goods, you, the deputy director, don't know?" Mr. Lin asked.

"If you don't know, go and see it quickly. What if something really happens?"

Mr. Lin's tone was severe.

Hearing the old man's words, Lin Zhenming's face tightened, he quickly lowered his head, and said, "Okay, I'll go check it out right now."

After speaking, Lin Zhenming pulled Yang Xuefen who was beside him to get up and leave.

—

After walking out of Lin's house, Yang Xuefen finally showed a dissatisfied expression on her face.

"Something went wrong. I think the old man clearly saw Lin Cheng coming back and wanted to drive us away." Yang Xuefen said dissatisfied.

Lin Zhenming remained silent with a sullen face, but he had the same thought as Yang Xuefen.

At this time, Yang Xuefen frowned, and asked again: "You said, what does this old man want to say by leaving Lin Cheng alone before he finished his meal and sent us away in a hurry?"

After finishing speaking, Yang Xuefen muttered again with a bad complexion: "Could it be that she wants to make a will behind our backs?"

Lin Zhenming glared at his wife: "Don't say such things casually, and with Dad's current situation and the situation of the Lin family, it is impossible to make a will so early."

Moreover, in his opinion, Lin Cheng is nothing to be afraid of.

Thinking of something, Lin Zhenming changed the subject and said again: "But we still have to let our son go back to China as soon as possible."

"You mean..."

"in case."

Recently, the eldest brother took his precious son to the main house when he had nothing to do. Do you think that others don't know what his plan is?

Yang Xuefen nodded, thinking about what happened at the Lin family just now, she couldn't help whispering, "What do you think the old man is looking for with Lin Cheng..."

Although Mr. Lin had driven them away before and left Lin Cheng alone, at least the Mr. Lin would wait until after the meal and send them away quietly.

It was the first time that people were kicked out halfway through the meal like today.

—

On the other side, the Lin family.

At the dinner table, as soon as the old man put the bowls and chopsticks away, he said to Lin Cheng, "Come with me to the study."

After all, Mr. Lin got up and went upstairs directly, without giving Lin Cheng any chance to refuse.

—

"What's the matter, grandpa?" Lin Cheng asked straight to the point when he came to the study.

Lin Cheng thought that the old man called him here to talk about work, but he didn't expect that the first sentence that the old man said was: "Who is the mother of the child?"

"How old are you? What's your name? What's your occupation? Do you know your real situation?"

Facing Mr. Lin's series of bombardments, Lin Cheng was stunned: What the hell?

"I don't understand what you're talking about." Lin Cheng said truthfully.

But when the old man slapped the table with a "bang", he snorted coldly, "You still dare to pretend to be a fool with me? Do you think my old man is too old to use the Internet?"

Mr. Lin squinted his eyes, and said again: "It's hidden very deep, and he secretly gave birth to all the children behind the family's back." The most annoying thing is that with the help of the Lin family's connections and strength, he didn't find out at all.

If it wasn't for some young workers in the family who saw Lin Cheng bring Lin Momo on the live broadcast of the reality show this time, he would not have known that he had a great-granddaughter.

Suppressing the little excitement in his heart, Mr. Lin sighed secretly: He knew that Lin Cheng's actions over the years were against himself and the entire Lin family. To get him back, he had to hang out in the entertainment industry.

Sometimes Lin Yuanchang felt that he could not understand this grandson.

Let's say that Lin Cheng is bad and useless. He has done a good job in dealing with the Lin family and the company. Mr. Lin deliberately threw several branches to Lin Cheng to take care of. Although he was not happy, he did not refuse, and he handled the affairs of the branches very well.

It can be said that he is not bad, but he has to dawdle in the entertainment industry without doing business.

Thinking of something, Mr. Lin's complexion suddenly darkened, and he looked at Lin Cheng seriously: "That child was born by a little girl you fooled back then, right?"

Lin Cheng's mouth twitched slightly.

After hearing so much from the old man, Lin Cheng finally knew who the 'child' the old man was talking about.

At this time, the old man said with a cold face again: "I won't pursue what happened in your past, but you should be responsible for what you should be responsible for."

"That's not my child." Lin Cheng said.

The old man seemed not to have heard it, and continued to speak earnestly: "There are still problems about the future of the child, what identity the child will live in, and whether to take it back to the Lin family. Of course, I have no objection to the child taking over..."

Halfway through the conversation, the old man came to his senses and looked at Lin Cheng: "You said that child is not yours?!"

"Whose is not yours?"

"have no idea."

"I don't know? You don't know who that child belongs to. You bring it on the show?" the old man questioned.

"The company's agent was looking for it." After a pause, Lin Cheng added: "It's just to cooperate with the completion of the program recording."

Lin Yuanchang: "Are you fooling me?"

Lin Cheng: "I don't need to lie to you, and if I really have children, do you think I can hide them all these years?"

This is true.

"It's really not yours?"

"no."

Mr. Lin lowered his eyes and stopped talking.

In the depths of his heart, Mr. Lin, who had quietly experienced a lot of ups and downs, had a gloomy face, and he was silent for a long time before he came to his senses.

Mr. Lin looked at Lin Cheng again, and there seemed to be a hint of hatred in his eyes?

Sighing, Mr. Lin said: "Let's not talk about the child, but, Lin Cheng, you are not young anymore, and it's time to start a family and start a business."

"Come back, you should share more of the Lin family's affairs." After saying this, Mr. Lin's expression became serious. This sentence has a deep meaning.

This is not the first time that old man Lin mentioned this to Lin Cheng, and Lin Cheng naturally understood what the old man said.

Squinting his eyes, Lin Cheng said, "As long as the Lin family is with you."

Mr. Lin gave Lin Cheng a blank look, and scolded: "I'm almost 80 years old, how many years can I last?"

"There are many capable people in the Lin family, aren't there others?" Lin Cheng asked back, with sarcasm in his eyes.

Mr. Lin's face darkened.

The grandfather and grandson looked at each other for a moment, and finally, Mr. Lin was defeated and let out a long sigh.

"Are you still blaming me about Lin Zhenhong and your mother?"

- Lin Zhenhong is the eldest son of Lin Yuanchang.

And Lin Cheng's mother, Chen Shu, is the daughter of Mr. Lin's best friend.

The Chen family is not a wealthy or official family, and their friends are just ordinary teachers.

Although Mr. Lin could see that Lin Zhenhong dumped his ex-girlfriend, pursued Chen Shu and married her in order to cater to himself and fight for the future inheritance of the Lin family.

But seeing that the two got along well, Lin Zhenhong also restrained himself after marriage and stopped fooling around outside. Seeing this, Mr. Lin didn't say anything more.

However, things changed after the two were married for 10 years.

Lin Cheng was 9 years old at that time.

Mr. Lin suddenly had a heart problem, and his life was hanging by a thread.

As a last resort, Mr. Lin hastily handed over the affairs of the Lin family to his two sons, and then went to Country Y for medical treatment.

This treatment is more than a year.

Both Lin Zhenhong and Lin Zhenming probably thought that the old man was going to die, and the competition in the Lin family was intensifying.

In order to get help, Lin Zhenhong once again found his former girlfriend, Ye Yun, a young lady from the Ye family.

Lin Zhenhong wanted to divorce Chen Shu but was rejected by Chen Shu, and the two quarreled constantly. In the end, Lin Zhenhong took Ye Yun and his son who was only 3 months younger than Lin Cheng directly to the Lin family.

Chen Shu was overwhelmed and died of depression not long after.

Although Mr. Lin returned to China after the operation was successful, the deal was done at that time and could not be changed.

Afterwards, the old man handed over the affairs of the Lin family to brothers Lin Zhenhong and Lin Zhenming, while he himself was recuperating in the villa for several years because of a serious illness.

In the past few years, Lin Cheng's life in the Lin family was not easy. His father was indifferent and partial to the second son, and his stepmother treated him harshly through various schemes. The old man has more than enough heart but not enough strength.

At the age of 16, Lin Cheng was forced to go abroad.

His life abroad was not good, until later, by chance, he entered the entertainment circle.

With financial support, Lin Cheng left the Lin family directly.

It wasn't until a few years ago that Mr. Lin recovered from his illness. After his recovery, Mr. Lin regained control of the Lin family's affairs.

Lin Zhenhong was directly kicked out of the Lin family by Mr. Lin because he misappropriated the assets of the Lin family to expand his own company and caused an accident to harm Lin Zhenming.

However, at that time, Lin Cheng's estrangement from the Lin family was already too deep, and it was too late to mend the situation.

"I've never blamed grandpa about Lin Zhenhong and my mother." Lin Cheng said calmly.

The old man was taken aback, looked at Lin Cheng, and asked, "Is that because of that incident 10 years ago?"

"The thing you were hacked at the beginning was not done by me." Mr. Lin said in a deep voice.

He just sat back and pretended not to see it.

Originally, the old man hoped that Lin Cheng could return to the Lin family to inherit the family business, instead of fooling around in the entertainment circle.

At that time, Lin Cheng was exposed to scandal and troubles continued. The old man thought that it was just right, Lin Cheng was not popular in the entertainment industry, so he could use this to force him to go home.

Therefore, the old man chose to turn a blind eye to Lin Cheng's incidents. It was not until later that the false revelations had too much influence, and he asked the people below to take action to quell the incident.

Who would have thought that although Lin Cheng was confused, he would rather spend his time in the entertainment industry than go home.

The old man can only pretend to be sick and leave some affairs of the Lin family to Lin Cheng.

As expected, Lin Cheng did not disappoint the old man. He handled the affairs of the Lin family well.

Facing the old man's explanation, Lin Cheng just said calmly: "No."

"That…"

"You know what I'm for." Lin Cheng said with a cold face after taking Mr. Lin's words.

After finishing speaking, Lin Cheng turned and left, leaving Mr. Lin with a troubled expression on his face.

…

In the study, Housekeeper Zhou walked in.

"The old man hasn't said anything to the young master yet?" Steward Zhou asked.

Mr. Lin sighed.

"It's so easy, that kid is very stubborn." After a pause, the old man muttered again: "I don't know who he looks like."

Steward Zhou didn't speak at the side, but he was thinking in his heart: "Young master's temper is obviously like how are you?"

"By the way, Zhou Xing, where did you click into the live broadcast room you searched for me before? Why did I click in and there was nothing there?" Thinking of what, the old man asked Butler Zhou with the tablet in his hand.

"Probably not, old man, did you make a mistake?"

"I just ordered this, can it be wrong?"

"That's it, that's right." Steward Zhou approached, glanced at the entrance of the live broadcast room of the app, and said.

"Then why can't you see it?"

Click to enter, it is indeed pitch black, nothing.

"Is the membership gone?" Zhou Butler rubbed his chin and wondered.

"Then what are you talking about, hurry up and continue." The old man was a little anxious.

He wanted to see the kid that Lin Cheng brought on the show.

Although Lin Cheng said that Lin Momo was not his child, the old man still had doubts about Lin Cheng's words.

"That child looks so similar to that kid, especially when he was young, it looks like it was carved out of a mold, and his mouth is exactly the same as that of Lin Cheng's mother, how could it not be his own..." Mr. Lin muttered.

"Why isn't it alright? It's still black?"

"Does it take so long to recharge?" the old man asked impatiently.

"Recharge, remind me that the membership has not yet expired, and I have recharged as the highest-level annual card member."

"Then why can't you see it?"

"this…"

The two old men fiddled with the tablet for a long time, until they got through to the customer service call, and found out that after the live broadcast ended, the playback of the live broadcast was automatically closed.

—

On the other side, Lin Cheng returned to his apartment.

Sitting in the study, Lin Cheng's eyes fell on the personal information of Lin Momo that Chen Yu had prepared for him on the table.

Thinking that the above information about Lin Momo was probably fake, Lin Cheng suddenly lost interest in looking through it.

A few minutes later, Lin Cheng called Chen Yu.

On the phone, Lin Cheng asked Chen Yu for Lin Momo's real information.

"Real information?" Chen Yu was a little surprised. After all, in his perception, Lin Cheng shouldn't care about such insignificant things.

"I have some here, but not many..." Chen Yu said, and most of them were provided to him by Lin Cheng's former manager.

"Send it to my mailbox." Lin Cheng said without talking nonsense.

"Ah, okay, I'll look for it and send it to you right away."

After a pause, Chen Yu continued: "Also, Brother Cheng, at 7:00 p.m., the trailer of the first issue of "Living with Dad" will be simultaneously launched on Chengzi Channel and iWO. You...you can watch it when you have time." Chen Yu reminded.

Chen Yu originally thought that the other party would directly say, "Look, I'm not free." Unexpectedly, Lin Cheng responded, "Well, I will watch."

"Okay, then don't bother Brother Cheng."

—

After hanging up the phone, Lin Cheng quickly received the information from Chen Yu in his mailbox.

Click to open it, and there is very little information about Lin Momo in it.

[Lin Momo, 9 years old, was picked up by Zhang Cuifang nine years ago and kept by her side. During the subsequent census, with the help of community workers and the police station, Lin Momo was registered as a registered permanent residence. ]

[Currently, Lin Momo and Zhang Cuifang live in No. 17 attached to No. 57 Taiping Lane. They rely on the security money issued by the community and the income from buying waste products. Lin Momo studies in Taiping Road Primary School. ]

[Zhang Cuifang also has a 30-year-old son who is unemployed. ]

Seeing the last one, Lin Cheng frowned.

At this time, the phone's notification sounded: [7 o'clock. 】

Just now, while waiting for the email, Lin Cheng set an event reminder: According to Chen Yu, the first preview will go live at 7 o'clock.

After exiting the email, Lin Cheng opened the Chengzitai app.

The familiar melody sounded, and the theme song of "Living with Dad" was playing on the screen at this time.
