Chapter 2092: Chapter 2111: Good! Very Good
"Brother Shi Tou is great!" Shen Weixing agreed, "He’s a good kid." But the two families are not on good terms, and second brother doesn’t have a high opinion of them. Making them family through marriage might be tough. However, thinking it over, second brother only has Little An as a daughter, and he dotes on her. As long as Little An insists, he’ll agree in the end.
Su Hai’s sharp brows and eyes swept over Shen Weixing, making a mental note of him.
Xue Hongxing was surprised to know Shen Zian had someone she liked, paused for a moment, then chuckled, "So you’ve got someone you fancy, what a shame."
"Although I think Brother Shi Tou is pretty nice, my parents won’t agree." Shen Zian sighed, briefly recounting the foolish actions by Shen Haijun and Li Erhua. Mainly, the couple repeatedly took advantage of others, looked down on Shi Tou, and dashed his hopes.
In the end, she said earnestly, "You guys don’t know, Brother Shi Tou’s family hates ours to death."
The people were dumbfounded, partly due to Shen Haijun and Li Erhua’s bizarre behavior, and partly because Shen Zian stated it so openly without any cover-up, with a straightforward attitude.
This wasn’t the kind of courage and openness a typical eighteen-year-old girl would have.
Shen Zian giggled, "I’ll tell you, I actually cursed at Shi Tou too." The original owner cursed rather nastily, looking down on them! Though she felt embarrassed thinking about it, even if she wasn’t the one who cursed, she’s the one carrying the blame now.
"Do you... still plan on marrying Shi Tou?" Xue Hongxing was bewildered by her.
Shen Zian pondered, "It depends!" She wasn’t in the mood for dating now! Saying this was just to prevent people from setting her up with someone. After tonight, surely no one will try to introduce her to someone.
This way, she could relax and think about how to deal with Xie Yibin and Ding Meichen, and have more time to help Big Nephew.
Everyone: "..."
Alright! Failed being a matchmaker.
Xue Hongxing still felt sorry; he even thought of introducing Yi Ming to her.
After dinner, Shen Weixing escorted everyone out of the family quarters and only returned after sending them to the troop’s guesthouse. By the time he got home, Shen Zian had already bathed and gone to bed. Lately she was suffering from post-war trauma and was much less spirited than before, needing good rest.
Zhao Honglian finished the household chores and was sitting in a chair, preparing for tomorrow’s lesson content while waiting for Shen Weixing. Seeing her husband return, she hurried to pour him a cup of water, and only after Shen Weixing bathed and they got into bed did they start chatting.
All day, Zhao Honglian had been on edge, both frightened by her niece, worried she might cause trouble, and nervous because the headmaster was having dinner at home for the first time, afraid of embarrassing her husband.
"Weixing, what did the mayor say? What exactly happened today? Why did they suddenly decide to have dinner at our house?" Her husband was an honest man without networking; no matter how you count it, it wouldn’t come to them!
"I don’t know what happened either!" In fact, Shen Weixing was also in the fog, "Captain Xue told me; otherwise, I wouldn’t have known."
"Didn’t you secretly ask?"
"I did ask, of course, I did!" Shen Weixing leaned against the headboard, brow furrowed, and wrinkles creeping up at the corners of his eyes, "Captain Xue said Director Su suggested it, so they came to our house."
