Qiu Zean frowned and said:
"Is there something you need?"
Zhao Feifei tugged at her braid and said shyly:
"I want to ask Brother Ze'an to go to the movies with me tonight..."
As soon as Zhao Feifei finished speaking, Aunt Zhou couldn't wait to say:
“Your brother Ze’an is free tonight, so you two can go see a movie together, and then have dinner together. Young people should spend more time together.”
After saying that, Aunt Zhou gave Qiu Ze'an a meaningful look, signaling him to take the initiative.
Qiu Ze'an glanced at Aunt Zhou, showing her no respect whatsoever, and said:
"Aunt Zhou has made excellent arrangements. You should go ahead then. I don't have time, so I won't bother you any longer!"
After saying that, Qiu Zean turned and left.
Aunt Zhou's face flushed red and then turned pale; she was quite angry.
Since Zhao Feifei and Qian Huijie were still there, Aunt Zhou could only force a smile and say:
“Look at this child, he’s just too busy. Once he’s done with his work, he’ll definitely ask Feifei out.”
"Don't give him a good look then, Feifei. That brat can't be forgiven so easily!"
After Aunt Zhou finished speaking, Zhao Feifei's complexion improved slightly. She twisted her braid and said:
“Brother Ze’an is a man who does great things, I understand he’s busy, but I just want to be with him…”
Aunt Zhou held her hand and said very understandingly:
"I understand, Aunt Zhou understands. The more you young people spend together, the better your relationship will be."
"As for your relationship with Ze'an, my husband and I are very supportive."
"Old Qiu and I are thinking that since Ze'an is back this time, our two families should just settle things now. What do you think, Huijie?"
Qian Huijie was naturally satisfied with Qiu Ze'an as her son-in-law. He was not old and had done very well in the local area without relying on Lao Qiu.
Old Zhao had told her more than once that Old Qiu's eldest son was very promising, that he would surpass his father and go even further than Old Qiu in the future.
Qiu Zean is an upright person, unlike those second-generation rich kids from the compound who have all sorts of messy affairs.
He's good-looking too, unlike Lao Qiu, who inherited his looks from his maternal uncle.
On the other hand, if Qiu Zean's maternal uncle were still alive, Qiu Zean's mother wouldn't have been so forced out.
Qian Huijie glanced at Aunt Zhou without showing any emotion. Old Qiu's wife was a second marriage, so she didn't dare to control her daughter-in-law.
If it weren't for Lao Zhao taking a liking to Qiu Ze'an, and his daughter Fei Fei chasing after him, Qian Huijie might not have been willing to associate with Aunt Zhou.
A woman like her, who climbed to the top by stepping on her best friend's mistress, would be someone no legitimate wife would want to associate with.
There was no other way; she couldn't let Lao Zhao associate with Aunt Zhou. Who knew if this woman would take a fancy to Lao Zhao? This woman had a criminal record.
She couldn't be happier that the two families could sit down together to discuss the marriage. Now that the matter was settled, she could finally give an account to her husband, Old Zhao!
Qian Huijie said with a smile:
"Alright, the two kids have known each other for so many years, and we trust your Ze'an's character. He's such an upright and steady young man! I feel at ease leaving Feifei with him!"
Aunt Zhou was overjoyed and, holding Zhao Feifei's hand, promised:
"Don't worry about Feifei coming to our house. I don't have a daughter either, so I'll definitely treat Feifei like my own daughter!"
Qian Huijie's ventriloquism: My biological mother is still here, my daughter doesn't need an extra mother like Qiu Ze'an!
Having settled the matter, Qian Huijie led Zhao Feifei away.
As soon as Qian Huijie and Zhao Feifei left, Aunt Zhou's expression changed immediately. She gritted her teeth and said:
"As long as I'm still in this family, whether I marry or not is not up to you to decide!"
When Aunt Zhou first married Qiu's father, she also wanted to ruin Qiu Ze'an.
At that time, she was already pregnant with Qiu Minting, Qiu Zean's half-sister.
At the time, she certainly didn't know it was a daughter; Aunt Zhou always thought it was a son.
She has her own son, why should she take good care of someone else's son?
If it weren't for the fact that the abuse in the compound was too conspicuous, and Qiu Ze'an was already over ten years old at the time, and had uncles and elders in the compound looking after him, Aunt Zhou wouldn't have wanted Qiu Ze'an to live.
When she gave birth to her eldest daughter, Aunt Zhou was disappointed for a while and treated Qiu Ze'an a little better.
At the time, she was mainly worried that if she kept having daughters and didn't have a son, given Old Qiu's personality, he would never support his daughters over his sons, and she would definitely have to rely on Qiu Ze'an when she got old.
Two years later, Aunt Zhou finally gave birth to her son, Qiu Xinping. Now, her desire to ruin Qiu Zean was even stronger. She couldn't let Qiu Zean compete with her son for the family property!
That's why they say Wei Wei's son is so cunning; just thinking about it makes Aunt Zhou furious.
Who would have thought that a kid in his early teens would have such a cunning mind! That kid is really good at hiding his true intentions!
