Zhutian: I have been happy to be a father since I was a child.

Two days later, in the morning.

Not long after arriving at the company, Chen Tao received a WeChat message from Qiao Yingzi, asking him to help with something.

At noon, he drove to school to pick someone up, then found a restaurant and talked while having lunch.

"Dad, you should know that when I was a freshman and sophomore in high school, I worked as a docent at the planetarium, right?"

As soon as Qiao Yingzi started speaking, Chen Tao understood what she wanted to do.

"What's wrong? Are you going to give a lecture at the planetarium this weekend, but your mother won't let you?"

Qiao Yingzi nodded: "Yes, this Saturday, I want to go to the planetarium to give a special science lecture on the Chang'e lunar exploration project. It was not easy for me to be qualified as a commentator, but when my mother found out, she didn't say anything. Let me go, it’s useless if I cry, make trouble, and hang myself.”

Chen Tao asked with a smile: "Did you really have trouble with your mother? Why don't I believe it?"

With Qiao Yingzi's character, would she cry, make trouble, and hang herself with Song Qian?

impossible.

Qiao Yingzi said coquettishly: "Dad, don't care whether I am making trouble or not, just tell me whether you can help me or not?"

Chen Tao asked back: "Can dad still not help you?"

Qiao Yingzi smiled and said: "No, you have to deal with my mother!"

Chen Tao thought for a while, and he didn't have any good ideas:

"I can't handle your mother. I can only sneak you out, wait until you finish your speech, and then sneak you back."

Qiao Yingzi shook his head and said:

"Isn't that okay? Mom knows it's a Saturday lecture, so she will definitely be on guard against me!"

Chen Tao sighed: "Yingzi, you really can't do this... You have to learn to say no to your mother. Otherwise, you will slowly lose yourself. You have to make it clear to her that you are tired and don't want to go anymore." Accept the will she imposes on you. Yes, the college entrance examination is coming soon, so you shouldn't be distracted by extracurricular things. But the problem is, even after the college entrance examination, your mother will continue to control your life! Dad can always help you, But I’m afraid that one day you won’t be able to bear it anymore and your mother will drive you crazy!”

After hearing these words, Qiao Yingzi really felt the same.

Because she is not a fool, and she has already seen clearly who Song Qian is.

But she was afraid that Song Qian would be sad and didn't dare to tell her true thoughts.

She shook her head repeatedly: "No, I really can't say it. It's not been easy for my mother these years. I don't want to hurt her heart."

Chen Tao sighed again: "You two are like Zhou Yu fighting Huang Gai. One is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer. I think sooner or later one of you will go crazy."

Qiao Yingzi said angrily: "It's not that serious! Dad, don't worry so much, just find a way to help me give a lecture at the planetarium first!"

Chen Tao nodded: "Okay, I will pick you up on Saturday morning. Your mother will definitely agree."

Qiao Yingzi asked curiously: "How are you going to convince my mother?"

Chen Tao said seriously: "Of course I'm threatening your mother! If she doesn't agree to let you give a speech, then as long as she is not here, I will go over and disturb your studies. Even if she calls the police, it will be useless, because I am your father and I have legal rights." Visitation rights!”

Qiao Yingzi exclaimed: "You would never do this before."

Chen Tao smiled and asked: "Who am I going to change like this for?"

Qiao Yingzi was moved and said: "Dad, you are so good!"

***

3pm.

Song Qian looked unhappy: "Qiao Weidong, why are you calling here?"

Chen Tao asked: "Do you have any classes tonight?"

Song Qian said impatiently: "If you have anything to say, just say it, don't be secretive."

Chen Tao said calmly: "I'm just calling you to tell you that as long as you're not at home from now on, I'll go see Yingzi."

Song Qian was surprised and said: "Didn't we agree to see you once a month? Why do you want to break the contract now?"

Chen Tao admitted: "Yes, I feel that Yingzi is under a lot of pressure and may suffer from problems, so I want to talk to her to relieve her stress."

Song Qian's voice immediately became louder:

"You're holding something back! Do you want to say that I put pressure on Yingzi? You, what do you know! She is already in her third year of high school, how can she not be stressed? Go find your little girlfriend and stop bothering our mother and daughter! "

Chen Tao said seriously: "I am informing you, not discussing with you. That's it, bye!"

After saying that, he hung up the call.

Negotiation is tricky.

Chen Tao holds the bargaining chip, so Song Qian should beg him to do things.

As expected, Song Qian immediately called back:

"Qiao Weidong, what do you mean? Do you want to take Yingzi away, or force me to death?"

Chen Tao sneered and said: "When did I force you? I just want to see my daughter, what's wrong with it? If you think I'm wrong, then let the neighbors comment and let them all talk about it. Only dad will be allowed to see me this month." What’s the point of having a daughter once?”

Song Qian shouted: "Then how many times do you want to meet? We didn't agree on everything at the beginning, why do you regret it again?"

Chen Tao said calmly:

"Now whenever I have free time, I want to see my daughter. As for how many times a month I need to see her? Sorry, I'm not good at math, so I can't calculate it!"

Song Qian was furious: "If you want a daughter, just go and have a baby with your little girlfriend. Why are you always pestering Yingzi? Do you know that she is now a senior in high school and has no time to waste with you?"

Chen Tao still said calmly: "I used to see Yingzi once a month, why do I have to pester her? It's obviously you, the mother, who keeps pestering her and doesn't want her to see me, right? As for the bullshit that I don't have time in my senior year of high school, I don't Let me tell you clearly, I really don’t care about this at all. So what if she gets a zero score in the college entrance examination? If she follows my father in the future, she will definitely do better than those who came from Harvard or Yale. You If you think she has no future if she fails in the exam, then let her live with me as soon as possible, and she will have any future."

Song Qian scolded: "It's just a few bad guys, what's the big deal? As long as Yingzi relies on herself, she can get into a good school and have a good future. She doesn't need a scumbag like you to give her any future!"

Chen Tao asked back: "If it's not for money, why did you graduate from Chunfeng Middle School? As for me being a scumbag... Yes, to you, I am indeed a scumbag; but to Yingzi, I am a qualified father. So. , I can go and see her when I have time, and I can go and see her whenever I want. What does it have to do with you? Why does there have to be a limit on the number of times? Oh, you monitor her like a prisoner, it’s just for her own good, and I create it for her. Isn’t it good for her to have affluent living conditions and care about her mental health?”

Song Qian said angrily: "When did I treat Yingzi as a prisoner? How can she learn consciously if I don't look at her? You know how to follow her, how can she not like you? I will be the bad guy and you will be the one. Good person, but the daughter I trained ended up taking advantage of you? Qiao Weidong, why are you so bad! Bad to the core!"

Chen Tao chuckled: "That's right, you can continue to be a bad guy from now on, and I can be a good guy when I have time. We have a clear division of labor, and we each get what we need... That's it, I have other things to do, let's talk about it when I have time!"

After saying that, he hung up the call again.
