168, Misplaced Life

The conceptual theory of "Palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction" still needs further experiments. In the next more than a month, Yan Chu almost followed the rhythm of the old professors in the laboratory, but those old professors still couldn't stand it. , give him half a day off to take a good rest, and then he has a chance to leave the laboratory.

Zhang Guoqing originally wanted to resign from the company. After all, he had taken a long leave because of his son's college entrance examination, and now because of his son's life experience, he was expected to stay in Yanjing for a long time.

The boss at the company was surprisingly easy to talk to. Knowing that he was taking a long leave due to family problems, he retained his position and waited for him to return home after finishing his household chores.

Now Zhang Guoqing and his wife Lin Fang rent a two-bedroom apartment in Yanjing. The family has saved some money over the years. Although the rent in Yanjing is high, it is still within Zhang Guoqing's acceptable range.

Where the two sons will go, these things have to be dealt with. Work and other matters are far less important than this matter.

During the month when Yan Chu was busy with experiments, Yan Jinyu moved out from the Yan family and temporarily stayed in the small apartment he bought with the initial capital given by his parents when he was an adult and the first money he earned from investing in stocks. The apartment is fully furnished and can be lived in as long as some furniture is added.

Yu Tong was not very willing to let his adopted son move out, but Yan Jin strongly requested it, and Yu Tong couldn't resist him, so he had no choice but to agree.

During this month, Yan Jinyu still often went back to Yan's house to visit his adoptive parents. He also went to Zhang Guoqing and Lin Fang's place several times, but after all, they were strangers for more than 20 years, so he was still a little cautious.

Yan Chu knew the address of his family's rental house. He was still in the laboratory at that time, and Zhang's father called him specifically to tell him their current address. So after leaving the laboratory, he went straight to the Zhang family's rental house. .

When he arrived home, he could hear the laughter and laughter inside through the door. The knock on the door paused for a moment, and Yan Chu stood outside the door for a few seconds before raising his hand to knock on the door again.

"Achu, you're back."

Zhang Guoqing only met his son once on the first day he arrived in Yanjing, but he never saw him again because his son was busy with his studies. At this time, seeing his son appear outside the house, he was overjoyed.

It was dinner time. When Yan Chu came in, he saw a table full of dishes. Lin Fang and Yan Jinyu were sitting at the dinner table. Seeing him appear, Yan Jinyu stood up with a somewhat expression on his face. Awkward.

"There are none of your favorite dishes, but it doesn't matter. Dad doesn't know when you will come home. Your favorite dishes are frozen in the refrigerator for you. It's early. Dad will steam a fish roe for you and fry it. A serving of shiitake mushrooms and cabbage.”

Zhang Guoqing looked at the dishes on the table. Many of them were what he and Lin Fang found out about Yan Jinyu's favorite food. His biological son's taste is sweet and spicy, which is the opposite of his adopted son's. It's hard to find anything on this table. Bring out a few bowls of the adopted son’s favorite food.

"Why go to all this trouble? There are so many dishes. It would be a waste if you can't finish them all."

Lin Fang's eyes darkened when she saw Yan Chu appear. She hadn't seen any ghosts for more than a month. Today, her son finally showed up and he ran over, not causing any trouble.

"Dad, don't be busy. I just came out of the laboratory. I haven't eaten anything since morning. Now my belly and stomach are hungry."

Yan Chu followed Lin Fang's words, walked to the kitchen and got a clean bowl, then served himself a bowl of rice, walked to the empty seat next to Yan Jinyu and sat down.

"Why didn't you have breakfast? It's not good for your stomach. You are so busy doing experiments, why don't your father send you breakfast, lunch and dinner?"

Zhang Guoqing thought that his son had always been very regular in his diet. Now he was so busy that he couldn't even attend to breakfast and lunch. Being hungry would be a big deal.

He didn't talk about steamed fish roe or anything else. He looked at the few dishes on the table that his son could still eat, and put them on the plate in front of him.

"Jin Yu, you eat too. You said before that you like to eat pot-wrapped pork, and you don't know if what I cook is to your liking."

He took care of his adopted son out of habit, but he couldn't neglect his biological son.

For Zhang Guoqing, it was quite rare for a biological son to suddenly appear. For this, he secretly felt guilty. After all, for more than ten years before, he had always thought that Lin Fang was taking him for granted. To her, His attitude has always been bad.

Now it seems that although Lin Fang does have a lot of problems, in this matter, it was his own fault for misunderstanding her.

Zhang Guoqing feels quite guilty these days. Sometimes when Lin Fang does something again, he tries his best to endure it. Unlike before, he occasionally choked her when he couldn't bear it anymore.

"Jin Yu, eat more. Didn't you say you love eggplants? Mom picked these eggplants from the vegetable market early in the morning. They couldn't be fresher."

Compared with Zhang Guoqing, who had different concerns about both sides, Lin Fang was very enthusiastic about Xiang Jinyu, taking care of his biological son enthusiastically from beginning to end, and treating Yan Chu, his adopted son, as nothing.

The Yan family has always been restrained in getting along with each other. Even when their identity has not been exposed, Yan Jinyu has never experienced such warm and exposed emotions. The family communicates when eating, but they will never take food to each other like this. Staring at you until you finish eating.

After coming to Zhang's house several times, Yan Jin still couldn't adapt to Lin Fang's enthusiasm. He was a little puzzled that his biological mother was really the one who loved and cared about Zhang Chu the day she cried and made trouble when the truth was revealed. A woman who adopts a son?

He couldn't help but raise his head and glance at Yan Chu. He was eating the food on the plate placed in front of him by Zhang's father as if nothing had happened. His movements and behavior, although he had not received the corresponding education, were very comfortable to watch.

Are some of the foundations really integrated into the bones and blood? The young man in front of him has a kind of bearing. This kind of bearing makes him not fall into the cliché even if he is in the most upscale banquet.

"Lin Fang."

It was true that Zhang Guoqing also liked his lost and found biological son, but he couldn't bear to see Lin Fang treating his adopted son like nothing.

Over the years, he has never understood what was going on in this woman's mind.

"Ah Chu, Mom hasn't seen Jin Yu feel excited in so many years. You can understand, right?" Because of Zhang Guoqing's words, Lin Fang reluctantly raised her eyelids and looked at her adopted son and said with some timidity.

"I have been your mother for more than 20 years, so you must be considerate and considerate of Jin Yu. I have only been his mother for a few days."

Lin Fang's mood has been so good these days. She can recognize her son openly. She used to shed tears in the wind and shed tears before saying anything. This has not happened to her for a long time.

Now tears began to roll in her eyes again. She took out a tissue from the paper towel on the side, tucked it in the corner of her eyes, looked straight at Yan Chu and said.

"I understand."

Yan Chu patted Yan Jinyu's shoulder, and without leaving a trace, he pinched a piece of Yan Jinyu's fallen hair with hair follicles on his shoulder, then withdrew his hand and put the hair in his pocket, which he had already prepared. In a clear plastic bag.

Because the movement was so fast, no one noticed what he just did. Even Yan Jinyu only felt his hand tapping on her shoulder.

"As long as you understand."

Lin Fang turned from crying to laughing. She stopped looking at Yan Chu and ignored him again. She turned to Yan Jin and asked him for help. She wanted to feed him directly.

This kind of enthusiasm really makes Yan Jin unbearable.

"My parents miss you. If you have time, please come home some time."

Yan Jinyu would go back to Yan's house occasionally. Yan Jibei and Yu Tong had a lot of business at the company and wouldn't be at home often. But if Yan Chu came home, no matter how busy they were, they would always find some time to come back.

It's just that this real son of the Yan family seems to be busier than his biological father and mother. Yan Jinyu has heard from his adoptive mother several times that he spends time in the laboratory every day, not knowing what kind of experiments he is doing. He eats and sleeps while doing experiments. Conducted in the room.

I just don’t know if I’m really busy, or if I’m avoiding them and don’t want to see them.

Yan Jinyu thought that if Yan Chu was willing to go home and see his adoptive parents, they would be very happy.

"Now that the experiment has reached a critical point, I guess there will be even less time in the future. Why not just have a meal at night, and then I have to go back to study."

Yan Chu thought that a month was almost gone and it was time to meet.

Zhang Guoqing didn't say anything against it. It's human nature for a son to want to see his parents. Aren't they also very happy when Jin Yu came to see them?

"No, you can't go to Yan's house."

Lin Fang immediately objected. How could she give her adopted son the opportunity to have contact with their biological parents.

She also found out these days that Jin Yu was already working at Yanshi. If their identities were not exposed, Yanshi and Yushi would both be her sons in the future.

And it seems that that silly woman Yu Tong still cares about her son. As long as Zhang Chu doesn't get close to them for a day, there's no telling which one they will prefer in the future.

Besides, does Zhang Chu know how to manage a company? Since he likes to stay in that laboratory, let him stay there forever. Wouldn't it be great to spend his whole life in the laboratory and never achieve anything?

"Mom, you are also considerate of me. I have been your son for more than 20 years, but I have never been my mother's son for even a day."

Yan Chu sent Lin Fang's words back to him intact. Lin Fang's chest suffocated and his lips moved for a long time before he said something cruel.

"If you go back, don't recognize me as your mother. Hey, I have a headache."

Lin Fang covered her forehead, looking haggard and sad, and stared at Yan Chu from the corner of her eye to see how he would react.

"Dad, don't worry. You have raised me for more than 20 years. In my heart, you are my dearest father. But that side is also my biological mother after all. It is impossible for me to have no contact with that side in my life."

Yan Chu looked at Zhang Guoqing and said, when Zhang Guoqing heard his son say that he was his dearest father, Zhang Guoqing felt that his son was really well raised, filial and considerate, even though he did not give him a good education or a good education. Good material comfort, but this child is no worse than anyone else.

"Dad knows, you can follow Jin Yu there after dinner."

Zhang Guoqing patted his son on the shoulder happily: "Don't think too much. In dad's heart, you and Jin Yu are both my sons. Just think that God has given you an extra set of parents and an extra set of dads in the future." It’s a good thing that Mom loves you.”

He thought privately that the conditions of the Yan family were good, and today's society was still very realistic. His son chose the weird-sounding biochemistry, and he didn't know what he could do in the future. With a pair of rich parents, at least he didn't have to Worrying about material problems, they might be able to help him buy a house in Yanjing by then, which is something his adoptive father cannot do.

Having a good relationship with them will do more good than harm to the adopted child. Besides, no matter what, you can't stop the child from getting close to his biological father and mother.

Only Yan Jin was sensitive enough to notice that when Yan Chu was speaking, he only mentioned his adoptive father and biological mother, while his adoptive mother and biological father were never mentioned from the beginning to the end.

Is it purely a matter of speaking, or is it because of something else?

Yan Jinyu didn't understand.

Lin Fang had just used her adopted son as air, but now she was being treated as air by her adopted son and husband. She was pretending to have a headache and chest tightness, but now she really felt uncomfortable.

She always felt that since her senior year in high school, her adopted son had been somewhat out of her control.

Originally, she thought that when the boys got older, they might not be as close to her as they were when they were children, but now it seems that this is not the case at all. She recalled the way her adopted son looked at her just now, and couldn't help but feel a little guilty. Could it be that the other party noticed it? What?

But the next second she rejected this possibility herself, how could it be possible?

During this time of contemplation, Yan Jin Yudu had already sent a text message to tell Yan Jibei and Yu Tong that Yan Chu would go home for dinner tonight. Yu Tong was so happy that he postponed all the banquets in the evening and left early. The company is back and preparing dinner for today.

******

"Don't move, let mom go."

After all, we haven't been together for more than 20 years, so we feel guilty about being close, but more importantly, we are still cautious.

Yu Tong had never been in the kitchen in her life, and she had a servant at home. Even during the most difficult period, the couple had three meals at an outside restaurant. After all, they never missed money no matter how difficult the situation was.

This time, it may be because of the return of his own son. Yu Tong rarely learned to cook a few simple dishes from the chef at home. He wanted to let his son taste his own on the first day when the whole family sat down together to eat. craft.

Yu Tong and Zhang Guoqing asked what Yan Chu likes to eat. Yu Tong originally asked Lin Fang, but that woman might be worried that she would steal her son, and was extremely indifferent to her.

Yu Tong retreated to the next best option and could only choose to contact Zhang Guoqing. Unexpectedly, this father was more attentive than her mother. She could not necessarily tell many of the preferences of her adopted son Jin Yu, but Zhang Guoqing was very fond of his son Zhang Chu. He has countless hobbies and hobbies.

It was only then that Yu Tong breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that although his own son lived in a family with average material conditions, he received no less care and attention than anyone else.

Today she plans to cook a bowl of mushrooms and cabbage, and steam a bowl of ham and stewed eggs. These two dishes are easy to make and suitable for a novice like her. As for other more delicate meals, they must be made by the chef. In just one month, Time is not enough for Yu Tong to have such good skills.

Yan Chu couldn't stand it anymore when he saw her careful movements of chopping vegetables. He washed the vegetables quickly, held the kitchen knife in his hand and dropped it. It quickly turned into an afterimage, and the vegetables and soaked mushrooms were all washed away. Cut into similar sizes and set aside in a bowl for later use.

Yu Tong originally wanted to show his motherly love in front of his son, but he failed to show it. Instead, he watched his own son show off his abilities.

Such good knife skills cannot be achieved without regular practice.

Yu Tong remembered that it was written in the information that Lin Fang was a housewife, and the housework should be taken care of. Nowadays, every family only has one child, and they are pampered like pearls, so how can they be willing to do housework for them.

"Ah Chu, you seem to be very good at cooking. Did you often cook by yourself when you were at home?"

Yu Tong couldn't help but ask.

"Um."

It doesn’t take long to stir-fry mushrooms and cabbage. The key point is that Yan Chu’s cooking movements are particularly beautiful. From pouring oil into the pot to serving the dishes, he flows smoothly.

"My dad is busy with work, so I started learning to cook when I was a teenager."

"What about your mother?"

Yu Tong doesn't think that Lin Fang should be responsible for all the housework as a housewife, but she thinks that no matter what, when Lin Fang has no job and is at home every day, it will not be a problem for a teenager with regular schoolwork. It’s to the point where overburdened children have to take on so many housework.

"My mother has a relatively sensitive personality, so my father and I usually take care of her."

Yan Chu took out the vegetables. The green vegetables were bright green in color. After frying them in a pot, the color became even brighter. They looked better than the food in star-rated restaurants.

Looking at this exquisite dish, Yu Tong surprisingly had no appetite.

She originally thought that her son was at least living a good life even in an ordinary family, but now she vaguely realized that her son had begun to take on part of the housework at home since he was a teenager, and she felt a little unhappy.

Her son didn't need to do those things at all.

The chef on the other side also prepared a table of dishes. Yan Jibei came back relatively late. When he got home, he was just in time to serve the food.

The dinner table of the Yan family was not as lively as that of the Zhang family, and the education they received since childhood did not allow them to chatter and laugh at the dinner table. It was because Yan Chu was at home today that they had an unprecedented chance to talk a few more words.

"What are your plans in the future? I am familiar with the dean of the Department of Economics and Management at Yenching University. If you are willing, I can transfer you to the Department of Economics and Management. You will always have to learn how to deal with the company in the future."

Yan Jibei looked at his son sitting opposite him and said.

"And your last name always has to be changed back."

He and Yu Tong's son couldn't bear another man's surname for the rest of his life.

"No hurry, no rush."

Yu Tong felt that her husband was too impatient. His son may not have accepted his identity yet. Besides, Jin Yu was still here, so it might not be good to talk about the company like this.

"It mainly depends on your own preferences. If you like your current major, continue studying. If you are interested in management, then we will consider whether to change to another major."

After just getting along for a while, Yu Tong felt that this son was well-raised, polite and filial, but it was obvious that he was still a child with a lot of ideas and was not necessarily willing to accept the arrangements of his elders.

Yu Tong gently kicked her husband under the dining table and asked him to restrain himself.

“I like my current major.”

Yan Chu looked at Yan Jibei and said: "As for the company, in the first twenty years or so, I was just an ordinary person. In the next few decades, it will probably be the same. Whoever you planned to let inherit should be let, except With a son like me, nothing needs to change.”

"But you are my son!"

Yan Jibei said with a frown.

After hearing his words, Yan Jinyu's face turned pale for a moment. Yes, he is not the biological son of the Yan family. Maybe his father's serious and indifferent treatment of him before was not because he imagined that he was strict with him, but because of the relationship between them. Without those blood relationships, he might not be able to get close to him.

Yan Jin was thinking wildly in his heart. He could feel that although his adoptive father had the same expression on Zhang Chu, the way he looked at Zhang Chu was much closer than when he looked at him.

"More than twenty years ago, Yan Jin was your son, and I am my father's son. I think it is good for us to maintain our current relationship."

Yan Chu looked at the man in front of him. Did he really not know the fact that his son had been exchanged?

Since you decided to help hide it from the beginning, why do you still think about him passively accepting the path he arranged for him.

In his previous life, the original person never thought about the company. All he cared about was his family. Naturally, he would not care about those external things in this life. As long as he wanted to, he could build a company better than the Yan family. A huge business empire.

"Jibei."

The good atmosphere was frozen due to Yan Jibei's words, and Yu Tong couldn't help but tug at the hem of his clothes.

Seeing that his biological son was stubborn and unwilling to accept their inheritance, and his adopted son was a little sad because of what her husband had just said frankly, Yu Tong felt that his head was getting big.

"Sir, I just received a call from the old gentleman, asking you to take Master A Chu and Master Jin Yu there."

The housekeeper came over and said to Yan Jibei.

How did the old man know about the existence of Yan Chu?

Yan Jibei and Yu Tong looked at each other with confusion in their eyes.

The two of them took out their mobile phones. Because they wanted to have a good dinner with their son, their mobile phones were both on silent. When they saw the series of missed calls and text messages on their mobile phones, they were stunned.

They had previously agreed to hide from the outside world the fact that their two children had been given the wrong birth. But for some reason, the news still spread. Now the news is all over the Internet and TV. Naturally, the old man can't hide it. Living.

But there are so few people who know about this, so what exactly is the problem?
