The weather was cold, and a thick layer of ice had formed on the river.
They chiseled a large hole in the ice, moved a small stool, sat in front of the ice hole, and placed a fishing bucket and other fishing gear next to them.
Qin Zheng told Gu's father about Gu Jin's usual way of interacting with Tian Xiaohui. As expected, Gu's father snorted coldly after hearing it.
"I knew he was like that."
"No matter what kind of girl she is, if he goes to her place, he will either be rejected or end up becoming like a brother to her."
At this rate, he probably won't be able to hold his grandson in his lifetime.
Thinking of this, Gu's father sighed sadly, turned his head and looked meaningfully at Ye Yun sitting in the sidecar, and said, "Qin Zheng, why don't you wait until your child is born and then recognize Gu Jin as your father?"
Qin Zheng's hand trembled. "Huh?"
Mr. Gu chuckled, "To tell you the truth, when Gu Jin was little, a fortune teller came to our house and did a divination for him. Guess what?"
Qin Zheng was taken aback. "You still believe in this?"
Mr. Gu nodded. "The fortune teller said he was destined to be widowed. He said that in his past life he was a playboy who broke the hearts of too many women, and he is suffering retribution in this life because he can't find a wife."
No, you can believe this?
Qin Zheng was dumbfounded. What unscientific thing had he heard?
"I didn't believe it at first either, but apart from this incident, everything else basically matched what the fortune teller said. The fortune teller said that he would have a major calamity when he was nine years old, and he fell into the river when he was nine and almost drowned."
Mr. Gu rubbed his forehead and said slowly, word by word, "Do you know that feeling? Someone came to tell me that my son had fallen into the river and was probably dead. When I rushed to the riverbank to look for him, my legs were weak."
Qin Zheng nodded slightly.
Although he hasn't experienced it yet, just putting himself in that situation, if someone important to him fell into the water and came out unconscious, not knowing whether they were alive or dead, he would probably feel weak in the knees.
It was because of this incident that Gu's father believed the fortune teller's words.
Seeing that Qin Zheng did not answer his question, Gu's father realized that his idea was absurd and waved his hand, saying, "Let him be. Maybe he really is just not grown up yet. He might come to his senses someday."
Qin Zheng smiled immediately.
"Don't worry, Gu Jin and I have a good relationship. If I have a child, I will definitely recognize him as my godfather."
Father Gu smiled too.
The scene of their conversation fell into Ye Yun's eyes. Ye Yun sat in the sidecar, holding a hot water cup in her hand, her thoughts echoing the words that Gu's father had just said.
Is Gu Jin destined to be widowed?
Can't find a wife?
She acknowledged the existence of fate...
But who says that if you have bad luck, you have to follow your fate?
In her past life, Gu Jin did not find someone to spend her life with, but in her past life, she and Qin Zheng were both taken away by a flood, one filled with hatred and the other with regret.
Fate is unfair.
People with good fortune can live a carefree life according to their destiny, but no one can dictate that people with bad fortune must be forced to follow their bad fate, suffer, and live out their lives!
If Gu Jin meets the girl he likes again, and falls in love with her again.
Then why not go against the tide?
...
In the pastry shop, Tian Xiaohui, who had failed to find a partner through a blind date, was depressed every day and couldn't even muster the energy to work.
Ye Yun followed the same method and had someone find her some more suitable blind dates.
They are all quite qualified.
Gu Jin also made two connections, both involving scions of well-off families.
In less than a week, Tian Xiaohui had met at least twenty men, if not thirty.
However, it was useless.
Finally, Ye Yun got tired and sat behind the counter, staring at Tian Xiaohui with a sinister look.
Tian Xiaohui instead slumped onto the counter, complaining, "My life is so miserable, why can't I find a boyfriend..."
Ye Yun was so angry that she laughed.
"What do you mean you can't find a partner? What kind of person are you looking for, sis?"
Tian Xiaohui pouted, feeling wronged, "I just want to find someone I like..."
"Good, good, good!" Ye Yun clapped her hands, forcing a smile: "So many people, really not a single one you like?"
Tian Xiaohui blinked, looking completely innocent.
Ye Yun got angry when she saw her like this. She forced herself to calm down, took a deep breath, and said while holding her forehead, "Good sister, don't tell me you can't find a partner. Your standards are too high."
"I don't have any conditions."
"No conditions are the best conditions." Ye Yun clapped her hands. "Look, your brother Qin Zheng and I have found so many men for you, and they're all acceptable, right?"
"And then what happened?"
"If someone is handsome, you say you don't dare; if someone is ugly, you don't want them. If someone is sweet-talking, you say they're full of bad intentions; if someone is clumsy with words, you say they're stubborn! If someone is rich, you think they might be a 'Ximen Qing' (a notorious womanizer); if someone is poor, you say it won't work! If someone has a good temper, you call them a coward; if someone has a bad temper, you say they're rude and barbaric! When you're single, you insist on going on blind dates; when you do go on blind dates, you tell them to get lost!"
"Tell me about yourself, are you right?"
Tian Xiaohui, "..."
She didn't dare say a word after being scolded like that. Ye Yun is usually a very good-tempered person, so she must have been extremely angry with her.
Tian Xiaohui thought for a moment, then looked at Qin Zheng beside her with a wronged expression.
Qin Zheng decisively said, "Don't look at me."
He couldn't understand Tian Xiaohui's behavior even more than Ye Yun. It's not wrong to be picky, after all, marriage is a lifelong matter, but isn't she being too picky?
"Fine, fine, so none of you want to help me anymore, huh?"
