Chen Afu put his arm around Mrs. Wang and rested his head on her shoulder, saying, "Mother, I know. If I can't trust my own father, who can I trust? In my heart, Dad, Mother, Brother, Dabao, you all are the most dear to me."
Hearing this, Chen Dabao also slid down from the bed, hugged Mrs. Wang and lisped, "Yes, yes, you all are Dabao's favorites."
Mrs. Wang laughed. She felt that her daughter and grandson had been particularly affectionate and somewhat embarrassing to her recently. But she loved it.
In Chen Afu's mind, Chen Ming was gentle, and especially obedient to Chen Ye, which could make some things difficult. It seemed that in the future, his businesses and that of Chen Ming's should be kept separate. Not because he feared being coveted, but because he wanted to avoid "noises" that would add to his troubles.
