Chapter 358 What if it’s a son?
After reporting in and making his bed, Zhou Yong strolled to the county government on time.
Xu Jianmin was talking to his colleagues while pushing his bicycle out. Zhou Yong, wearing a hat, was standing at the government gate looking at him.
"Junior brother?"
When Xu Jianmin saw Zhou Yong, he greeted his colleagues and pushed his bicycle to his junior.
The two brothers hadn't seen each other for a while. Zhou Yong discovered that Xu Jianmin was in a particularly good mental state. He knew without asking that his brother must be doing very well in both family and work.
"Brother, would you like to have a drink tonight?"
Xu Jianmin smiled and said, "That's a must. I'm the one treating you today. If you rush to pay, I'll get mad at you..."
Usually when they eat together, Zhou Yong pays the bill.
Zhou Yong responded readily with a smile, and the brothers walked towards the restaurant while talking.
Two dishes, a bottle of wine, and the two chatted all night.
When Zhou Yong woke up the next day, it was already eight o'clock in the morning. He hurriedly left Xu Jianmin's house and went to the Party School.
Fortunately, Xu Jianmin's home was not far from the Party School, and Zhou Yong stepped into the study room five minutes before roll call.
He spent the whole morning in a daze, and forced himself to attend class in the afternoon.
After dinner, Zhou Yong returned to the dormitory and fell asleep. He slept until seven o'clock the next morning.
The study life was very boring and tedious. For Zhou Yong, every day felt like a year.
Therefore, Zhou Yong would go out to eat and drink with friends every night, and lived a very happy life.
On the fourth day of his study at the Party School, Chen Pingliang asked him to have dinner with him in the evening, and Zhou Yong went as promised.
"Zhou Yong, let me introduce you, this is Wang Ping's colleague Meng Xiaofan..."
If Zhou Yong knew that Wang Ping was also there, he would have said he would not come for dinner no matter what.
The four of them sat down. Zhou Yong glanced at Chen Pingliang who was chatting animatedly with Wang Ping. Seeing the two of them being so close to each other, he was speechless.
"Brother Zhou, which unit do you work in?"
Zhou Yong kept his distance from Meng Xiaofan. He said with a cold face: "I don't have a job."
"No job? Who are you kidding?"
Meng Xiaofan looked at Zhou Yong, who was well-dressed, and mistakenly thought that he worked in that government agency.
Zhou Yong frowned slightly: "I'm just a peasant."
Meng Xiaofan thought Zhou Yong was very humorous and kept trying to get close to him, which made him very annoyed.
"Brother Zhou, how old are you?"
Zhou Yong secretly raised his eyebrows and stared at Meng Xiaofan, who was about 22 or 23 years old. "Are you investigating the household registration?"
Meng Xiaofan was stunned for a few seconds. Looking at Zhou Yong who didn't understand the romance, she secretly pouted and turned her face away.
The dishes were quickly served, and Chen Pingliang enthusiastically poured wine for Wang Ping and Meng Xiaofan.
Wang Ping and Meng Xiaofan both have a good alcohol tolerance. They each drank more than half a pound of white wine and were not hurt at all.
After dinner, the two of them left the table to relieve themselves. Zhou Yong looked at Chen Pingliang and said, "Brother Chen, are you still with Wang Ping?"
Wang Ping and Chen Pingliang's wife are half-sisters. She is considered Chen Pingliang's sister-in-law. She is shameless enough that she climbed into her brother-in-law's bed a few months ago while her sister was not at home.
Afterwards, the two maintained an unclear relationship. Zhou Yong had complained about Chen Pingliang so many times that he quickly sent Wang Ping away.
However, Wang Ping was young, beautiful and resourceful, and Chen Pingliang was not only powerful but also rich, so she naturally did not want to separate from her brother-in-law.
Chen Pingliang pushed the frame of his glasses on his nose and said in a low voice: "Last time I broke up with her, she cut her wrists. What do you want me to do? Let's do this for now and talk about it later..."
Zhou Yong was speechless: "Be careful not to fall into her hands."
Wang Ping is not only a scheming woman, but she also has some evil intentions. Otherwise, she wouldn't have taken advantage of Chen Pingliang's drinking to get into his bed.
Chen Pingliang pursed his lips: "Not really, she is just a little vain, she has nothing to say about me, she would never do anything to let me down..."
Zhou Yong looked at the confident Chen Pingliang and couldn't help rolling his eyes: "Brother Chen, it's a good thing to be confident in yourself, but being overconfident is not a good thing..."
Chen Pingliang burped and said, "Don't worry, I know what's going on."
Zhou Yong frowned slightly and advised kindly: "Stop talking nonsense and live a good life..."
That’s all I have to say. Even with good friends, Zhou Yong shouldn’t be too controlling.
As Zhou Yong finished speaking, Wang Ping and Meng Xiaofan came back.
Without waiting for them to finish eating, Zhou Yong looked at the time and made an excuse to leave.
The next day, Zhou Yong's life went on as usual. He attended two hours of classes in the morning, one hour of classes in the afternoon, and spent the rest of the time studying on his own.
A few more days passed in uneventful life, and that night Chen Pingliang came to see Zhou Yong.
"Brother Chen, why are you here?"
Chen Pingliang held the steering wheel with one hand and scratched his head with the other, which made Zhou Yong look confused.
"What's wrong with you?"
He got Wang Ping pregnant, and she didn't want to be married and just wanted to give birth to the baby, so Chen Pingliang wanted Wang Ping to go to Huaixi Village to give birth.
"Can you please give me a straight answer?"
Zhou Yong frowned: "Brother Chen, you are so confused. How could you let her give birth to the child? Do you know that once the child is born, it will be a potential threat to you..."
Their relationship was doomed to fail in the first place. If the child was born, with Wang Ping's methods and scheming, Chen Pingliang would never be able to get rid of her in his lifetime.
Chen Pingliang understood everything, but the problem was that he wanted a son, otherwise he would not let Wang Ping give birth to the child.
"Brother Chen, what if the baby is a girl?"
Chen Pingliang was stunned. He already had four daughters, the only thing missing was a son.
"What if it's a son?"
Zhou Yong smiled bitterly: "Brother Chen, you and I are both someone's son, so what?"
Chen Pingliang pursed his lips and said, "My brother and my younger brother's families all have boys, but my family doesn't. I really can't accept it..."
Because there was no one to inherit the family line, he always felt inferior to his brothers.
Zhou Yong glanced at Chen Pingliang and said, "Brother Chen, as a friend, I have the obligation to remind you that your actions are nothing more than playing with fire and getting burned.
And if my sister-in-law knew about this, how sad would she be? If your children knew this, what would they think of you?
How are you going to deal with Wang Ping and her husband in the future? Have you thought about these things? ”
Chen Pingliang seemed to want to say something but hesitated. Finally, he fell silent.
What Zhou Yong said were all from the bottom of his heart. Chen Pingliang understood that he was doing it for his own good, but he also had his own reasons for insisting on having a son.
"Brother Chen, since you've said that, I won't advise you anymore."
Chen Pingliang sighed: "Zhou Yong, when Wang Ping gives birth to the child, I will give her some money and let her leave here..."
Zhou Yong narrowed his eyes and said, "Brother Chen, I think you are oversimplifying things."
Chen Pingliang raised his eyebrows: "What do you mean?"
"Wang Ping is a scheming and intelligent woman. Now she follows you without asking for a name, but when the child is born, I guarantee that she will change her attitude..."
How many women would be foolish enough to bear a child for a man without asking for a legal status?
Even if there was such a thing, it would not happen to Chen Pingliang.
After all, Chen Pingliang is almost fifty years old. Why would a girl in her twenties love you so much?
