Chapter 170 Chen Yunfei's Troubles
Around 3 p.m.
"I never expected that Xiaoyouzi would be my daughter. What a coincidence!" Chen Yunfei said, looking at Qin Zhuo with interest and a mischievous smile. "Brother Qin, you've suddenly gained a father-in-law and a brother-in-law."
Yu Xiang was standing not far away when she heard Chen Yunfei's words, and the tips of her ears turned slightly red.
What father-in-law, brother-in-law!
She and Zhuozhuo are clearly just boyfriend and girlfriend.
She glared angrily at Chen Yunfei, "Brother Chen, what nonsense are you talking about!"
Chen Yunfei blinked, a sly look on his face, and said with a grin, "I'm not making this up. Given the situation between the two of you, it was only a matter of time."
Yu Xiang put her hands on her hips and pretended to be angry, saying, "If I had known, I would have given you fewer Corpse Fruits, Brother Chen, so you could level up and evolve more slowly. Now look at you, still spouting nonsense!"
Chen Yunfei casually put his hand on Qin Zhuo's shoulder and said nonchalantly, "Without me making a ruckus here, you two would miss out on so much fun, and your lives would be so boring."
Yu Xiang snorted coldly, turned around and stormed off, muttering, "I'm not talking to you anymore, I'm going to find Mimi."
Today was bath time for Mimi again, but the little one had disappeared again; she must be hiding and didn't want to take a bath.
Qin Zhuo brushed Chen Yunfei's hand off his shoulder and said, "Come with me for a moment."
After saying that, he walked towards his room.
"Okay," Chen Yunfei replied and quickly followed.
They arrived at Qin Zhuo's room.
Qin Zhuo leaned against the wall, arms crossed, a scrutinizing look in his eyes. "What's going on between you and Qiao Yan?"
Chen Yunfei's eyes flickered slightly, as if he was deliberately avoiding something, then he forced himself to remain calm and said, "Nothing's wrong, we're fine."
Qin Zhuo snorted and walked to the chair, sitting down. "You're not telling me the truth. You haven't been sticking to Qiao Yan lately. That's not like you."
Actually, the main reason is that after Chen Yunfei stopped clinging to Qiao Yan, he often spent time with her, which seriously affected the time he could spend alone with Youxiang.
With Chen Yunfei, that conspicuous third wheel, it became incredibly difficult for him to even start a relationship with Youxiang.
Chen Yunfei sat down in the chair opposite Qin Zhuo, his head lowered, and said in a somewhat dejected voice, "It's impossible for me and Qiao Yan to be together."
Qin Zhuo raised an eyebrow and pressed, "Why? Don't you like Qiao Yan anymore?"
Chen Yunfei shook his head, raised his head, his eyes filled with helplessness and desolation, "I am a zombie, and she is a human."
Qin Zhuo sat up slightly. "So what? Xiaoyouzi and I are the same way, and I don't think there's anything wrong with it. As long as you truly love each other, identity and race are not issues."
Chen Yunfei sighed helplessly, "It's different. You and Xiaoyouzi grew up together since you were little. It's a childhood sweetheart relationship. Over the years, your friendship has deepened, so naturally you won't look down on Xiaoyouzi."
"But Qiao Yan and I don't have any emotional foundation between us, and I feel that I am a zombie now, and I am not good enough for Qiao Yan at all."
Qin Zhuo stood up, walked a few steps to Chen Yunfei's side, slapped him hard on the head, and said in a tone of disappointment.
"You're just overthinking things. Be confident! Go and talk things out with Qiao Yan. Judging from her recent attitude towards you, she doesn't seem to be indifferent to you."
Qin Zhuo noticed that Qiao Yan's already cold face became even colder after Chen Yunfei didn't like to get close to her.
Chen Yunfei scratched his head, a conflicted expression on his face. "She only felt guilty towards me. I don't want to use that guilt to force her to like me. Feelings should be pure, and I don't want to get her this way."
Qin Zhuo rubbed his forehead, a hint of helplessness in his eyes. "Forget it, I was just reminding you. Ultimately, it's up to you what you want to do. When it comes to relationships, outsiders can't really help much."
If it weren't for the fact that Chen Yunfei was his good brother, he wouldn't have bothered to remind him.
Just then, Youxiang hopped in through the door and said, "Zhuozhuo, will you come for a walk with me? Mimi isn't home, she must have sneaked out for a stroll. Sigh, looks like I'll have to bathe her next time."
She looked at Chen Yunfei and said, "Oh, Brother Chen is here too. Were you two talking about something important?"
Qin Zhuo walked up to Youxiang and gently took her hand. "You didn't say anything important. I'll go out with you."
Youxiang turned around and glanced at Chen Yunfei, blinked, and said, "Brother Chen, do you want to come along?"
Chen Yunfei waved his hand, "No, I won't be a third wheel. You two enjoy your time together."
Brother Qin, that guy who forgets his friends for the sake of women, must have been annoyed with him for a long time.
Yu Xiang said "Oh" and then walked out of the villa hand in hand with Qin Zhuo.
After leaving the villa, Youxiang kicked at the pebbles on the ground and tilted her head to say to Qin Zhuo, "Zhuozhuo, it seems like Brother Chen wasn't very happy just now."
Qin Zhuo chuckled softly, "You're quite perceptive; he's unhappy."
Yuka stopped and asked curiously, "Why is he unhappy?"
Qin Zhuo patted her head. "You shouldn't worry about his affairs. If he doesn't think things through, no one else can help him. By the way, where should we go for a stroll later?"
Yu Xiang's eyes lit up immediately, and she said excitedly, "Of course we're going to the mall to see what good things we can buy."
During this period, Youxiang organized everyone to build a large shopping mall within the base, which became the center of all transactions within the base.
Moreover, the construction of basic services such as hospitals and schools is also underway under her leadership.
While other bases were still struggling with shortages of supplies, Taoyuan Base was worried about not having enough professional personnel, with key positions such as doctors and teachers in short supply.
Qin Zhuo thought about the items in the mall and asked, "Can't you buy everything in your game store? There's no need to come to the mall specifically."
Yu Xiang pouted and said coquettishly, "That's different. I enjoy the feeling of shopping. I stroll around the mall slowly, looking at this and touching that. It's so much fun."
After saying that, her eyes darted around, and she took Qin Zhuo's hand, saying, "The most important thing is that I can go shopping with you. Being with someone I like makes me so happy."
Qin Zhuo felt a warm current surge into his heart, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up. He then tightly gripped Youxiang's soft little hand.
Little Yuzu is getting better and better at saying things that he likes to hear.
