Chapter 697 Let’s just not live this life anymore!



Aunt Zhou is really good at acting, and her expressions are perfect.

If the Zhou brothers and sisters had not known what kind of person she was, they might have been fooled by her.

Although the Zhou brothers and sisters were not fooled by her, there were still some others who actually believed what Aunt Zhou said.

Or rather than saying that they believe it, it would be better to say that they find it hard to believe that there are such people in the world, so they are more inclined to believe it.

Brother Zhou was too lazy to talk nonsense with her and asked Ye Lao Si directly: "When are you free? I will treat you to a drink."

He was quite happy at this moment, thinking that the task his father assigned to him had been completed before the dinner table even started!

It seems that the Ye family has been planning to propose marriage for a long time, but they just want to give my younger sister the best of everything, so they are still trying.

Before I even asked the question, Ye Lao Si had already talked about his family's emphasis on and plans for proposing marriage. It was really timely.

This way, he wouldn't have to rack his brains to think about how to bring up this topic with Ye Laosi.

Ye Laosi was about to answer when he turned around and saw the young lady still sitting on the ground.

Afraid that the other party would hear him and chase him to cause trouble, he turned around and whispered to Brother Zhou, "Brother, I have time at noon and in the evening these days.

“During the day, I’m busy with nothing important.

"It depends on when the time is right, Brother Zhou."

"Okay, then I'll decide..." Before Brother Zhou could finish his words, he noticed his sister's gaze on him, so he swallowed back the words that were on the tip of his tongue and changed the subject, "In my opinion, it's better to do it today than to wait for another day. It's almost noon now, why don't we go have a meal together?"

Seeing that the Zhou brothers and sisters ignored her, Aunt Zhou felt embarrassed and ashamed, so she took the little girl, whom she had brought from nowhere, and left.

When Ye Laosi remembered these two people and looked back, they had already disappeared.

The three of them arrived at the restaurant and sat down in a private room. Ye Lao Si couldn't help but ask curiously, "Brother Zhou, could that young lady really be hired by her?"

"You're just listening to her nonsense!" Brother Zhou rolled his eyes. "My Second Aunt may not be good at anything else, but she's definitely a master at lying."

"Could that really be her daughter?" Ye Laosi couldn't believe it. How could a mother bring her daughter out to do such a thing in public?

If this gets out, will the girl’s reputation be ruined?

When Brother Zhou heard this, his expression suddenly became complicated.

Seeing this, Ye Lao Si quickly said, "If it's inconvenient to say, just pretend I didn't ask."

"Well, we're practically a family now, so there's nothing to hide from you," said Brother Zhou. "That girl is actually the child of Second Aunt's younger brother. Her parents died early, and Second Aunt, seeing how pretty she was, insisted on adopting her and keeping her with her, hoping she'd bring even greater benefits to her family in the future!"

"Greater benefits?" Ye Laosi was puzzled.

Hearing this, Boss Zhou raised his finger and pointed at him with amusement: "Isn't that the benefit right here?"

Ye Laosi was stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect that the topic would turn back to him.

Miss Zhou, who had been silent all this time, couldn't help but raise her hand to cover her mouth when she saw him like this, chuckling softly and muttering softly, "What a fool!"

Ye Laosi looked over in the direction of the voice and was immediately mesmerized by her smile and couldn't take his eyes off her.

Seeing this, Brother Zhou coughed a few times, which managed to divert the gazes of the two young men who were about to stick together.

At lunch, Brother Zhou ate very happily and drank a few more glasses of wine. He felt a little dizzy after eating.

So later on, when Ye Laosi and Zhou Xiaoniang were exchanging glances, he was too drunk to see clearly.

However, due to the presence of Brother Zhou, Ye Lao Si and Miss Zhou did not dare to say many things in their hearts.

Before leaving, Ye Lao Si walked over to Miss Zhou and said in a low voice, "See you at the dumpling restaurant tomorrow at noon."

Miss Zhou blushed when she heard this, and thought to herself, isn't it too bold and too frequent to meet him at noon for two consecutive days?

But while he was still thinking this in his mind, his mouth seemed to have a consciousness of its own and he just responded softly.

Seeing that she agreed, Ye Lao Si was immediately overjoyed. He didn't have to stick to her at this moment, and directly helped Brother Zhou all the way to the carriage.

After the Zhou siblings arrived home, the eldest brother Zhou was so drunk that he slept for the whole afternoon.

After dinner, Zhou's father and mother finally couldn't bear it anymore and sent someone to call him over.

Zhou's father came up and asked, "How's the task I asked you to do going?"

"Dad, don't worry. The Ye family already has this plan. We can just wait at home."

"Okay, okay!" Hearing his son's firm words, Zhou's father stroked his beard with joy.

But before he could be happy for a while, he heard Brother Zhou say, "Dad, Mom, there is something I have to tell you."

Then he told Zhou's father and mother everything that Aunt Zhou had done that day.

The more Father Zhou listened, the more shocked he became. In the end, his eyes widened as he asked in disbelief, "Is this true? Was this done by your second aunt?"

This time, before Brother Zhou could say anything, Mother Zhou exploded in anger.

She swept all the teapots and teacups on the table, and they shattered to the ground with a crackling sound.

Father Zhou was so frightened that he trembled, and when he turned around he saw Mother Zhou's face flushed with anger.

"What do you mean? What do you mean by true or false? Do you think your sister-in-law would not do such a thing? Do you think your son is lying to you?"

"No, I just thought this was too unbelievable, so I asked subconsciously..."

Zhou's father hurriedly explained, secretly cursing his son in his heart. Couldn't he tell him this kind of thing in private? Why did he have to say it in front of his wife? Now there would definitely be another big fuss.

Zhou's mother was already very dissatisfied with Uncle Zhou and Aunt Zhou, and she had kept in touch with them for so many years only for the sake of Zhou's father's face.

Even the support that Zhou's father gave to Uncle Zhou Er's business was done secretly, and he didn't dare let his wife know.

Now, Zhou's mother has changed from being very picky about her future son-in-law Ye Laosi to becoming more and more pleased with her son-in-law the more she looks at him.

Aunt Zhou now actually dares to plot against Ye Laosi, which is simply a stab in Zhou's mother's heart!

"Look at what your relatives have done! I told you years ago not to have any more contact with them!

"You're just saying this nonsense about blood being thicker than water and broken bones being connected by tendons.

"It would have been fine if I had been bullied before, but for your sake, I endured it until we separated.

"Now, everyone has started to openly compete with my daughter for a husband. If you, as a father, don't say anything, you might as well just forget about this life!"
