"Mr. Zhou, Young Master Jiang said you were his savior. Can you tell me how you saved him?"
When facing the boy she likes, Zhao Manli is not only excited but also trying to find something to talk about. Besides wanting to get closer to him, she is also interested in everything about him.
"That's a long story." Zhou Yuan looked at someone's pretty face and laughed: "At the beginning, he took his girlfriend to take a bath in the small river in our hometown. As a result, he got a calf cramp and fell into the river. He almost died.
I was wandering around the river and wanted to take a shower, but I heard his girlfriend calling me, so I jumped in and rescued him.
It's that simple, but I want to make it clear that the girlfriend at that time was not the bride today."
Zhou Yuan smiled again after he finished speaking.
Zhao Manli said with a sigh, "I know. This guy has had at least eight girlfriends, if not ten. Now that he's finally walking into the wedding hall, it seems he's finally settled down."
Zhao Manli also laughed after she finished speaking, then looked at Zhou Yuan boldly and asked calmly:
"Mr. Zhou should be around 27 or 28 years old, right? Is he married?"
In fact, Young Master Jiang had just told him that Zhou Yuan was 28 years old and still had no girlfriend, making him a golden bachelor.
It’s not that Zhao Manli has a bad memory, she asked this question on purpose, mainly to make conversation, and at the same time wanted Zhou Yuan to tell her in person.
"I'm sorry, Miss Zhao, I'm already 28 years old and I don't even have a girlfriend. I'm doing really badly."
Zhou Yuan laughed at himself after he finished speaking.
Zhao Manli also smiled, but her smile was a little special. Then she cleverly told Zhou Yuan that she was 25 years old and didn't have a boyfriend.
They even joked, "We're a little ugly, I wonder if Mr. Zhou likes girls like us?"
"Miss Zhao, you are too modest. If you call me ugly, then I dare say there are no good-looking girls in the world."
Zhou Yuan pretended to be serious and said, "Of course I like beautiful women, but we are self-employed individuals outside the system, full of the smell of money. Will Miss Zhao be interested?"
"Mr. Zhou, please don't say that. What's the smell of money? Having money is a good thing!
Now even the country encourages some people to get rich first.
Only those with the ability can become rich first. I admire men like this the most."
Zhao Manli did not directly say that she liked Zhou Yuan, but she tactfully told him that she liked this type of man, which made Zhou Yuan happy.
For Zhou Yuan, it's not the case that he falls in love with every person he meets. The main reason is that the wedding has not started yet, and it seems a bit boring to sit there alone. So since he has nothing to do anyway, it's a great pleasure to have a beautiful woman to chat with him.
So, haha!
As for Miss Zhao Manli who was sitting next to him, Zhou Yuan knew nothing except her name and that she looked okay.
So the conversation was a bit perfunctory, and the two of them were chatting casually.
It was already 11 o'clock and the wedding officially began.
Zhou Yuan was not the best man and Zhao Manli was not the bridesmaid. They were both guests attending the wedding.
So I sat up there and watched everything going on at the wedding on the stage, occasionally clapping and making a few comments.
The atmosphere was warm, the scene was lively, the groom was handsome, and the bride was beautiful.
For a family as well-connected as Young Master Jiang's, a daughter-in-law must be from an extraordinary family.
There is no doubt about this.
But it has nothing to do with Zhou Yuan. No matter how good her background is or how beautiful she is, she is still someone else's wife. At most, he can call her sister-in-law.
After all the hassle, he felt a little hungry. What he was most interested in was eating at the table after the wedding.
For a wedding banquet like this, the host has already made arrangements. In other words, there is no random seating.
But I don’t know whether it was intentional by Young Master Jiang or a coincidence, but the person next to Zhou Yuan was actually Zhao Manli.
This surprised both of them. Zhao Manli was the first to exclaim in surprise, "Wow, Mr. Zhou, what a coincidence!
We're actually in the same position, aren't we?"
"Who knows, maybe this is called fate." Zhou Yuan shrugged with a harmless smile.
But in Zhao Manli's opinion, Zhou Yuan's smile was so charming that it almost made her fall for him.
So I joked, "Mr. Zhou, please stop laughing so often, okay? When someone as charming as you laughs, how can anyone resist?"
The two of them were whispering while eating, and Young Master Jiang and his bride were toasting each of them one by one.
When it came to Zhou Yuan's turn, Young Master Jiang patted Zhou Yuan on the shoulder and said with a double meaning:
"Brother, the one sitting next to you is a white, rich and beautiful woman. She has both good looks and a good family background. She can be said to be able to go into the kitchen and go out to the living room.
Don’t miss out on a beauty like this, so hold on tight!
"Thank you for the reminder, Boss. I wish you and your wife happiness and love."
Zhou Yuan raised his glass and clinked it with Young Master Jiang. The bride beside him quickly came over and said, "Young Master, is this the Brother Zhou you always talk about? He is indeed a handsome man, extraordinary!"
You and Manli are truly a match made in heaven. Brother, you're a boy, so be brave and hold on tight!
After saying that, he clinked glasses with Zhou Yuan.
Looking at this beautiful bride, Zhou Yuan laughed out loud and even said that his sister-in-law was so beautiful, which made the bride feel a little embarrassed.
He followed Master Jiang to the other side to toast, but Zhao Manli took advantage of the fact that everyone was toasting and didn't notice this side, and said half seriously and half jokingly:
"Young Master Jiang and his wife both asked you to pursue me, do you dare?"
Zhou Yuan rolled his eyes at the other person and said, "What am I afraid of? It's not like I'm going through fire and water. Besides, let me tell you, in the past, it was always others who chased me, I never chased anyone else.
So this time I want to experience a different life.”
Zhou Yuan laughed after he finished speaking, picked up the glass and drank it all. Of course, because he had to drive, his glass was full of drinks, not wine.
Zhao Manli acted arrogant and said, "Mr. Zhou, it's ok if you want to pursue me, but you have to be mentally prepared. I'm not that easy to pursue.
My father is the CEO of a large international company, and I'm considered a famous socialite in the provincial capital, so I have a lot of admirers."
What Zhao Yuanyuan said was of course the truth, but Zhou Yuan didn't really want to pursue her. He was not interested in whether she was a socialite or not.
He likes girls who are beautiful, pure and kind to him.
Those with too strong a background, especially those who are not in the same circle as him, are not his type.
So after returning from Young Master Jiang's wedding, although he and Zhao Manli exchanged phone numbers, a few days passed and Zhou Yuan never thought of contacting each other.
I almost forgot about it.
It was a Sunday, and early in the morning, his cell phone rang.
"Hello, who are you?" This is Zhou Yuan's usual catchphrase when answering the phone.
The other party snorted delicately and said with some dissatisfaction: "Can't you recognize my voice? Have you forgotten me so quickly?
You said you would call me when you got back. It’s been a few days now, have you called me yet?
Of course, the person who called was Zhao Manli.
