68 Chapter 67, I Have Serious Matter With Uncle Zhang

“How do you know about this?” After a moment of silence, Li Xu asked curiously.

Zhang Kun couldn’t take the initiative to talk about this with Li Yong, right.

Li Yong said very honestly, “I actually saw everything on the Saturday morning when we bought the washing machine. Later, I went to look for my Master...”

So that’s how it was!

Li Xu heaved a sigh of relief in her heart.

“Alright, don’t worry about this matter. Your Master and I are not suitable, ” Li Xu said casually. “Hurry up and go to bed. I still have to get up early tomorrow.”

As she said that, she was about to get up.

Li Yong was anxious. He reached out and grabbed Li Xu’s wrist, pulling her back forcefully, “Then tell me, what exactly is not suitable? Do you not like my Master or something?”

His Master was such a good person. If his Sister could marry his Master, it would be a huge profit.

Seeing that Li Yong was so persistent, Li Xu simply sat down, “Then tell me, where would we be suitable? If I remember correctly, your Master is only twenty-nine years old this year, right?”

Just as Li Xu finished speaking, Li Yong quickly retorted, “His birthday is coming soon. After his birthday, he will be thirty years old.”

Li Xu shook her head helplessly, “That’s because he’s younger than me. He’s almost three years younger than me. First of all, his age isn’t suitable.”

“Why isn’t it suitable? Isn’t it said that it was a blessing when the woman is three years older? If he marries you, my Master might be able to make a fortune.”

Behind the door, Ji Yuanyuan nodded with a face full of agreement. She definitely would, because her mother had a daughter like her.

“Li Yong, can you be more realistic?” Hearing Li Yong’s words, Li Xu felt a little helpless. “I’m already thirty-three this year, and I already have three children. I don’t plan on having another child in this lifetime. Your Master is still young, and he definitely wants to have a child of his own. So between the two of us, it’s not possible!”

After Li Xu finished speaking, Li Yong was a little stunned.

This was something that he had not expected.

If his sister was not willing to have another child, then it might be unfair to his master.

He sat on the sofa dejectedly and watched in a daze as Li Xu got up.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Ji Yuanyuan tiptoed back to her bed and pretended to be asleep.

Sure enough, in a few seconds, Li Xu came over.

She opened the door gently, got on the bed, and laid down beside Ji Yuanyuan.

Since Li Yong stay over, Li Xu’s room would be given to Li Yong. She could only sleep on the same bed as Ji Yuanyuan.

Although Ji Yuanyuan had her eyes closed, she could still sense Li Xu’s emotions.

She had not fallen asleep. She seemed to be a little agitated and her breathing was a little heavy.

Ji Yuanyuan closed her eyes and fell asleep very quickly.

The next morning, when Ji Yuanyuan woke up, Li Xu had already left.

There was a sound from the kitchen outside. It was Li Yong cooking.

Lying on the bed, Ji Yuanyuan yawned lazily and thought about what had happened last night.

Very soon, she got up and left the bedroom.

Li Yong heard the sound and turned his head to see Ji Yuanyuan. He hurriedly said, “Hurry up and wash your hands, it’s time to eat.”

Ji Yuanyuan nodded and went to the bathroom.

Li Yong turned off the fire and went to Ji Zixuan and Ji Zi’ang’s room to wake the two brothers up for breakfast.

After dinner, Ji Yuanyuan looked at Li Yong and deliberately asked, “Second Uncle, come with me. I want to ask you a question.”

Li Yong’s face was full of sadness. Seeing Ji Yuanyuan like this, he forced a smile, “What do you want to ask Second Uncle?”

Ji Yuanyuan pulled on Li Yong’s sleeve with a serious expression, “Second Uncle, come to my room.”

With that, she pulled Li Yong into the room.

Ji Zi’ang sat at the dining table and quickly stuffed the last mouthful of rice before jumping down from the chair and heading to Ji Yuanyuan’s bedroom door.

He had specially called Second Uncle to the bedroom to talk. Was she trying to avoid him and Big Brother?

What was it that they could not hear?

He pressed his ear against the door sneakily.

“Second Uncle, let me ask you a question.”

He heard Ji Yuanyuan ask.

Before he could hear the next sentence, a hand had already appeared on his other ear.

“Hiss...” He sucked in a breath of cold air and quickly straightened his body. He looked at Ji Zixuan with a fawning expression.

Ji Zixuan’s face was cold as he gestured for him to follow him.

Seeing this, Ji Zi’ang could only follow Ji Zixuan back to his bedroom, even if his heart was aching.

“Where are your textbooks? Take them out!” Ji Zixuan said very seriously the moment they entered the bedroom.

Ji Zi’ang’s face was bitter as he took his bag and flipped through the textbooks.

In Ji Yuanyuan’s bedroom, she raised her head and asked seriously, “Is uncle Zhang a good person? Second Uncle, do you like him very much?”

Li Yong did not know why Ji Yuanyuan would ask such a question, however, he still nodded and said, “Of course, Uncle Zhang is a very good person. Back then, Second Uncle was his disciple. Not only did he teach him everything, but he also took special care of me in daily life.”

Ji Yuanyuan nodded thoughtfully.

After a moment of silence, Ji Yuanyuan asked again, “Then Second Uncle, can you bring me to find Uncle Zhang?”

...

Li Yong was a little surprised, “Why are you looking for Uncle Zhang?”

Like a little adult, Ji Yuanyuan sighed.

“Truthfully, I’ve seen it all. Uncle Zhang will come every morning to help Mommy move things.”

“How did you know?” Li Yong asked.

It seemed that he had really underestimated Yuanyuan. She actually knew about this matter, and for so long, she had pretended not to know.

One day, Ji Yuanyuan went to bed earlier at night, so she woke up earlier as well.

She lay on the bed with her eyes closed, wanting to sleep for a while longer. But who knew that she heard Li Xu talking to a man.

At that time, she was a little curious, so she quietly leaned on the window and looked down.

In the end, she saw Li Xu and Zhang Kun going to the market together.

After that day, she woke up earlier for three days. Every day, she could see Zhang Kun downstairs.

At that time, she knew that Zhang Kun had come specially to help.

...

Although she didn’t know what happened between Li Xu and Zhang Kun but from the conversation between Li Xu and Li Yong yesterday,

It was very likely that Zhang Kun’s confession to Li Xu had been rejected.

Could it be that Li Xu had rejected Zhang Kun because she didn’t like him?

Ji Yuanyuan didn’t think so. Although Li Xu had many concerns, she shouldn’t be completely emotionless towards Zhang Kun.

The tossing and turning last night was very good evidence

Speaking of which, Li Xu and Ji Jianguo had already separated on the surface for several years before the divorce. Now that they were divorced for half a year, if she were to be in a relationship again, Ji Yuanyuan would wholly support it.

Thinking of this, Ji Yuanyuan did not reply to Li Yong. Instead, she raised her head and looked at him eagerly. “Second Uncle, bring me there. I have a serious matter to discuss with Uncle Zhang.”

Ji Yuanyuan’s words successfully made Li Yong laugh, “Serious matters? What serious matters can a little girl like you have to discuss with him?”
