Chapter 232 As long as you live well, I won't regret it
After the celebration banquet, Wen Zhile did not go home.
She left with Zhou Jihuai.
Xingxing originally wanted to follow them, but failed. He was successfully stopped by his own parents, who finally persuaded him after much persuasion.
The child was held by Qin Anbang and nodded: "I know, I will go find Sister Xiangxiang after Brother Kele leaves."
"Mom and Dad, when will Brother Kele stop going out of town?"
"The stars were sad when they parted ways with them."
"Sister Xiangxiang will definitely be sad if she breaks up with him."
Song Zhen touched her son's head.
"You'd have to ask your grandfather."
"Grandpa!"
The child yelled, and Qin Anbang pressed his ears: "Your grandpa is not here."
Qin Xingyao pointed across the road and said, "Isn't that Grandpa's car?"
"Dad, put me down. I'm going to find grandpa."
A black Hongqi sedan was parked under the shade of a tree opposite the hotel.
Song Zhen said, "It's really Dad's car."
Qin Anbang carried the child across the road, put him down two meters away from the car, watched him get on the car, and turned away.
Song Zhen looked helpless.
"Grandpa!"
Old Qin smiled and said, "Hey."
"Grandson, why are you here?"
"Xingxing misses Grandpa!"
Mr. Qin smiled even more happily.
"Grandpa." Xingxing sat in the back seat and shook Old Qin's hand. "When will Brother Kele stop going out of town?"
Old Qin smiled and replied: "Your brother Zhou is an adult. Every adult has responsibilities. It is his responsibility to go abroad."
"If you want him to come back and stay in Jingzhou, you have to wait until the second half of next year."
"Ah, so long!"
"If Sister Xiangxiang knew, she would be very sad."
Old Qin was puzzled: "Who is Sister Xiangxiang?"
"Her name is Wen Zhile, she is so pretty and my favorite sister!"
Old Qin laughed out loud.
"Nothing."
"For adults, half a year goes by very quickly."
"Don't be sad."
"They will be reunited soon."
In the long river of time and space, half a year accounts for less than a drop of water, and 181 days are like a fleeting moment, gone in a flash.
It was Wen Zhile’s eighteenth birthday, and the Wen and Shu families decided to hold a grand ceremony.
They booked a two-story banquet hall in Wangjing Pavilion and invited Wen Zhile's classmates and colleagues, as well as Shu Ying and Wen Shuren's own colleagues.
Zhou Jihuai came back two days early, but didn't tell Wen Zhile.
During these two days, he quietly helped prepare for her birthday party and learned how to bake a cake.
On the birthday, all the guests saw how much Wen Shuren and Shu Ying valued and loved their biological daughter, and everyone envied Wen Zhile for having such a family.
I envy her even more because she is surrounded by elders and friends who care and love her.
The gifts piled up into a small mountain and needed to be hauled home by a truck.
When Zhou Jihuai appeared pushing a birthday cake, Wen Zhile's face was filled with undisguised surprise. She was so surprised that she even wanted to run over and hug him.
The cheers and applause around her brought her back to her senses. She suppressed her impulse, but her smile was exceptionally bright.
Everyone could see that her mood was lifted by Zhou Jihuai's appearance.
Shu Cheng'an raised his camera to capture this scene.
Changsheng looked at him with a smile: "Brother Huai has finally made it."
"You don't have to go to the northwest anymore."
"How old is Xiao Wen?"
Shu Chengan handed him the camera: "Take a picture for me."
"I'm only a sophomore. I'll be a junior when school starts in the summer."
"Okay." Changsheng instructed him to stand still.
“So young?” he exclaimed as he took photos. “After spending so much time with her, I often treat her as someone of the same age as us.”
Shu Chengan was very proud: "My sister is mature in thought!"
Changsheng chuckled: "Thanks to her maturity, otherwise she would not look down on Brother Huai."
"That's right, what little girl would like an old man who is eight years older than her."
After Shu Chengan agreed, he and Changsheng felt a chill on their backs.
They both looked towards the source of the coolness and thought to themselves that it was not good.
"Brother Huai can read lips?"
“…”
The birthday party lasted until eight o'clock in the evening.
Zhou Jihuai stood next to Wen Zhile, and together with Shu Ying, Wen Shuren and others, they saw off the guests and did not rest until half an hour later.
"Zhizhi, I have a gift for you."
Wen Zhile was a little excited: "Let's talk outside."
She looked left and right, and seized the opportunity to pull Zhou Jihuai into the fitting room.
"What gift is that? Take it out and let me see it."
Zhou Jihuai took his hands from behind his back and brought them to the front. In his hands was a long gift box.
The little girl curled her lips and said, "Open it."
"What is this? A necklace or a bracelet?"
"Necklace." The man opened the gift box and took out a diamond necklace.
This is the chain he asked someone to bring back from abroad a few months ago.
The first time he saw it, he thought it should be Wen Zhile's.
"So shiny and beautiful, I like it."
The man's eyebrows softened and he opened his other hand: "And this one."
"ring?"
"I saw this in the Foreign Trade Building. It's made of diamonds like the necklace. They look very beautiful together, so I bought it..."
Wen Zhile raised her eyes, her eyebrows curved.
Zhou Jihuai stopped talking and said, "Actually, I wanted to buy them for you, not because they look good together."
He put the ring into the necklace: "Zhizhi."
"Hey, do you want to put it on me? Okay."
The little girl turned around and pushed her long hair forward.
Her jet-black hair and fair skin complement each other, and together with the light yellow dress she wears, she forms a beautiful flower on earth.
Zhou Jihuai took a few slow breaths before raising his hand.
The tiny metal clasps on the necklace intertwined smoothly, as strong as their bond.
Wen Zhile turned around with a smile: "Comrade Zhou, do you have anything else to say?"
Zhou Jihuai lowered his eyes, not daring to look her in the face at that moment.
He thought about what he was going to say tonight countless times, but when tonight came, he only wanted to say one thing: "Zhizhi, are you willing to be with me?"
"I know I'm much older than you, but..."
"Of course I do! What's wrong with being older than me? I still like people who are older than me."
Wen Zhile hugged him happily.
"I've wanted to hug you for a long time, but there are too many people here tonight."
Zhou Ji Huaian was silent for two seconds to calm his heartbeat.
"Me too."
After saying this, he couldn't help laughing out loud.
Wen Zhile put her face against his chest and laughed, "Look how happy you are, hahaha."
"Ahem, stop being so lazy." Shu Chengan knocked on the door. "It's time to go home."
He waited half a minute and the door opened.
Shu Chengan saw the necklace and diamond ring on the little girl's neck at the first time, and immediately smiled: "Brother Huai, congratulations on becoming my brother-in-law."
"Quick! Call me brother."
Zhou Jihuai couldn't stop laughing, and said with a smile: "Cousin."
Shu Chengan laughed out loud.
When he first met Zhou Jihuai, he never dared to dream that one day he would call him brother!
Life is so wonderful!
-
The next day after confirming the relationship, Zhou Jihuai gave Wen Zhile a card.
Wen Zhile was stunned.
"Are these not all yours?"
"It's yours now."
Wen Zhile was stunned.
"You can use it. I changed the password to the day we officially started dating."
"Don't worry, just use it."
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Zhou Jihuai directly stuffed the card into her bag.
Wen Zhile quickly threw the bag into his car.
"I have money, you can keep your money for yourself."
"If you want to give it to me, wait until we get married."
She was amused: "When you meet someone, you give your belongings to them. Aren't you afraid that we won't get married in the end~"
Zhou Jihuai hugged her and said, "We must get married."
"Even if you don't get married, you can still live well with this money, so I don't regret giving it to you."
Wen Zhile kissed him.
