Chapter 1490 Good Father

Earl William frowned, his face looked unsightly, but he did not dare to get angry again. His wife and daughter were all turning towards Lei Lie. If he continued to make things difficult for the Lei family, it would only make people bored...

Lei Zhenting smiled slightly: "It's a pity for the parents in the world. Parents are all for the good of their children. No matter what kind of person they are or what their abilities are, their children should be filial to them."

"Uncle Lei is right." William Feier looked at Lei Zhenting with admiration.

Earl William felt very uncomfortable. His daughter had never looked at him with such eyes. Ever since he was a child, he had had no status in this family. As he was disappointed again and again, William Feier became even more disgusted. He also He wants to be a man that his wife and daughter can admire, but unfortunately he can't do anything about it...

"Let's go out first, Her Majesty the Queen should be here soon." Mrs. Sophie reminded.

"good."

…

The group of people came to the hotel entrance to wait. Soon, a Lincoln drove over and everyone came to greet it. Unfortunately, the person who got out of the car was not the Queen, but the Queen's personal entourage. The entourage first saluted Lei Zhenting, Then he said respectfully: "Chief Lei, Her Majesty the Queen is not feeling well today and cannot come over. She specially asked me to come over to express her gratitude. I hope you can understand!"

"Her Majesty the Queen is ill? What illness? Is it serious?" Earl William asked quickly.

"It's just a cold, not particularly serious, but it's not suitable to go out," the assistant replied.

"Then let's go see her." Earl William said eagerly.

"No, Earl William, you should stay and greet Chief Lei," the assistant said.

"But……"

"William!" Mrs. Sophie interrupted Earl William and said tactfully, "Her Majesty the Queen is already very guilty for not coming tonight. If we leave too, she will apologize even more. We'd better visit Her Majesty another day. ”

"Yes, Her Majesty the Queen wants you to entertain Chief Lei well," the assistant said quickly.

"Okay." Earl William said no more.

Lei Lie frowned. He knew that the queen must have done it on purpose. If she was really unwell and couldn't come over, she could have called to inform her. There was no reason for her to wait for so long.

Because Lei Zhenting made her lose face at the airport this afternoon, she deliberately gave Lei Zhenting a slap in the face that night. People in this political circle are really very scheming, and they have to calculate and plot such a trivial matter. .

Lei Zhenting didn't care at all and said politely: "It doesn't matter, Her Majesty the Queen has a lot to do, maybe she is overworked. Please give my regards to Her Majesty the Queen. We will visit her again when we have the opportunity."

"Thank you, I will tell Her Majesty the Queen." The assistant lowered his head, "Then I will take my leave first. I wish you a good night!"

"Okay, goodbye!" Lei Zhenting and others watched him leave.

"Let's go up, the food is ready." Lei Lie greeted everyone.

The family returned to the hotel again. Mrs. Sophie took a deep look at Lei Zhenting and admired this man from the bottom of her heart. She knew that except for Earl William, everyone here understood that the Queen deliberately broke the appointment, but Lei Zhenting did not. Acting so calm,

This is the true style of a general, and he is worthy of being a person who does great things. Lei Lie also inherited his father's advantages. Although he knew it in his heart, he did not show it at all. He has always been calm and indifferent. Such a boy should be worth it. Leave it to me for life. .

**

This family dinner passed peacefully and warmly. Mainly Lei Zhenting and Mrs. Sophie talked about Lei Lie and William Fair. Mrs. Sophie was very supportive of them being together, but she said that William Fair was still very young. They are young and cannot get engaged so early. It is recommended that they get along for another two years and wait until William Fair is twenty before considering getting engaged.

Earl William felt much relieved after hearing these words, and Mrs. Sophie was not confused. Although she argued with him on the surface, she actually listened to his opinions.

Lei Zhenting also agreed with Mrs. Sophie's suggestion. After all, Lei Lie and William Feier are still young and immature. Many things need to be tempered slowly. It doesn't matter if they stay together for another two years. By then, their relationship will be stable and their relationship will be more mature. Trust me, it will be a matter of course for us to get married by then.

The three elders all held the same opinion. Lei Lie naturally did not dare to say anything and nodded in agreement. However, William Feier was unhappy and remained silent with his mouth pouting...

In fact, she also knew that it was not the right time to get married, but she was a little afraid of the long nights and dreams, and she was even more worried that Austin would pester her in the future, so she hoped to settle down with Lei Lie as soon as possible. Engagement is not marriage anyway...

But now everyone agreed to wait for another two years, even Lei Lie had no objection, and William Feier could no longer insist. No matter how unwilling he was, he had no choice but to nod in agreement.

The matter was almost over, and it was getting late. Mrs. Sophie and Earl William were preparing to go home. Before leaving, Mrs. Sophie sincerely invited: "Chief Lei, why don't you and Lei Lie come and stay at our house? It's all right now." As a family, there is no need to stay in a hotel.”

"Yes, you can save some money by staying at our house." Earl William agreed.

Mrs. Sophie and William Fair's eyes immediately glanced over, and he curled his lips and stopped talking.

Lei Zhenting smiled lightly and said politely: "Thank you for your kindness. No need. I still have a lot of government affairs to be busy with. I have already booked a flight back to China tomorrow morning."

"Leaving tomorrow? Is this too urgent?" Mrs. Sophie was a little surprised, "I also plan to invite you and Lei Lie to my home for a banquet tomorrow."

"Yes, Uncle Lei, I also want to take you to our winery." William Fair said.

"I have been delayed in the United States for a long time. I can't delay any longer. I really have to go back tomorrow. Let's do it next time. There will be more opportunities in the future." Lei Zhenting said, "Lei Lie can stay and play for a few days."

"Ah?" Lei Lie looked at his father in astonishment, "Really? Did you approve my fake claim?"

"You are not my subordinate, why is it my turn to approve your leave?" Lei Zhenting took a sip of tea and said seriously, "But your boss reported to me that you left without authorization, and I have asked them to You resigned, and you have nothing to do anyway, why not stay with Fei'er."

"What???" Lei Lie opened his eyes wide in shock, "Resign, dismissal???"

"Lei Lie can't be a colonel anymore?" William Fair also panicked, "He came to France for me. Uncle Lei, please forgive him once. Tell his boss not to fire him. I will follow him tomorrow." Let’s go back to Hong Kong together.”

"Fei'er, this is not your fault, it's his problem." Lei Zhenting said seriously, "Besides, this is a business matter and has nothing to do with private matters. He should be punished for leaving his job without authorization. His dismissal is the result of normal handling according to the rules. , not my personal wishes.”

Lei Lie was speechless, covering his forehead with worry, feeling very depressed. He admitted that he had some sense of purpose, but he had never thought about leaving the army. Now that the army had expelled him, what would he do in the future? ?

"Uncle Lei, as long as you say a word, Lei Lie's boss won't dare to fire him. Why don't you help him?" William Feier was still determined to give up.

"Lei Lie should have told you that I have never been partial." Lei Zhenting said with a smile, "Privately, he is my son, and I should give him no less education and care, but in official matters, He is a soldier and if he does something wrong, he will be punished and I will not interfere."

"But……"

"Forget it." Lei Lie took William Feier's hand and sighed helplessly, "My dad is like this. Even if you persuade him for three days and three nights, he will not change his decision."

"This is not my decision, this is a rule." Lei Zhenting glared at him coldly, "If you make a mistake, you should accept the punishment calmly. If you want to return to the army in the future, you have to start from the lower level."

"I know." Lei Lie pouted in displeasure, "Someone has been in the same situation as me before. Shouldn't they just be punished? When it's my turn, I have to be fired. This is too harsh. Alas, who is calling I am your son!"

"It's good that you know." Lei Zhenting sipped tea leisurely, "If you are in business or other industries, I will never ask, but since you are in the army, I have to be strict with you. But you are too Being emotional may not be suitable for development in the army, so take this opportunity to think about your future path. You have to have an idea! "

"Chief Lei is really strict." Earl William couldn't help but say, "This is the first time I have seen him being so harsh on his own son. Maybe we French think differently from you. I feel that sometimes we use our authority to push ourselves." There is nothing wrong with my child. If I had the power like you, Lei Lie would definitely be above the minister level now."

"Yes!" Lei Zhenting raised his eyes and looked at him, "Then his character is as domineering and strong as Austin, and he is the only one who dominates."

In one sentence, Earl William was speechless, and the others were also shocked.

Indeed, different family environments and education methods will educate different people.

Lei Zhenting's strict requirements for Lei Lie made him become the upright, kind, youthful, optimistic, and cheerful person he is today; and the education method mentioned by Earl William is the same as Edward. The son he educated only Will be like Austin...

This time, Earl William had to lower his head...

"It's getting late, let me take you out." Lei Zhenting broke the deadlock, "Fei'er, you go home with your parents tonight. I want to talk to Lei Lie alone. At eight o'clock tomorrow morning, he I’ll find you again.”

"Yeah." William Fair listened to Lei Zhenting's words, "I know, Uncle Lei. Then I'll see you off tomorrow morning!"

"No, I booked an early flight. It takes off at seven in the morning. I will leave for the airport at five to go through the formalities. You don't need to see me off, and Lei Lie doesn't need to go to the airport. My assistant and I will go by ourselves."

"Why did you book so early?" Lei Lie asked with a frown.

"It's cheap, you can get a discount at that time." Lei Zhenting said with a smile, "Dad has to leave some money for you to find a wife."
