Former Object
Chen Jin was really impressed, it was just buying a wedding dress!
"I think it looks good, so I want to order one too."
Chen Yongxin was also speechless, "Who would order a wedding dress for themselves for no reason?"
"Then how did you know?" She made the order secretly and didn't tell anyone else.
"Tingting and Liu Chengzhi accidentally found out when they were ordering wedding dresses."
Oh, no wonder. This is too bad for the wedding shop. How could they leak her information? However, it is also possible that Chen Ting discovered it accidentally.
She was thinking of ordering it quietly and keeping it at home, but suddenly everyone found out, so she decided not to keep it a secret anymore. Once she got the wedding dress, she was going to wear it out and take photos!
Chen Wenqiang was still worried and confirmed again and again, "Are you really not dating someone now? If you are dating someone, then just do it. You are not a teenager in middle school. There is no need to hide it from us. If you are dating someone, bring him out to meet your family so that we can help you check it out."
Chen Jin let out a long sigh and said, "I really haven't talked about it." He only wants to make money and doesn't want to talk about dating.
Chen Jin didn't want to talk about this topic. She felt that once it was brought up, many people would pay attention to her relationship status. My third cousin is doing fine now. He often leads tour groups out, so no one will complain about him if he is not at home.
If she really encounters an elder who urges her to find a partner, she can still ask her third cousin to stand in the way. "If he is not in a hurry, then I will be even less anxious."
The eldest uncle was going out to meet his business partner, and Chen Jin was also ready to leave, but the second cousin asked her to stay and chat.
What's there to talk about? Don't ask her to be a relationship consultant?
As for her love experience... forget it, let’s not talk about it.
"Brother, I'm serious. You and Sister Zhuang Yao should go and order your wedding dresses as soon as possible. Aunt Chen Yue's wedding shop is booming right now. If you go to order your wedding dress now, you may have to wait for an appointment."
Seeing that his second cousin was hesitating, Chen Jin thought of other possibilities, "You won't..." blow it, right?
Chen Yongxin understood the cautious look she gave him and felt a little embarrassed, but should he talk to the elders about these things? It's so embarrassing. Looking for big brother? My eldest brother's toy company has been doing badly recently and is in a state of panic. Also, because of the assignment from the construction company here, his relationship with him is not as close as before. Looking for his friends? I'm afraid that not only will no one help him with any advice, but they will just laugh at him mercilessly.
After much thought, I think the third sister is the most suitable one, after all, Zhuang Yao has a good relationship with her.
"A while ago, Zhuang Yao and I went out for dinner and met Lin Xiaoman. We talked for a few minutes. Later, Lin Xiaoman asked me out for dinner. Zhuang Yao found out and is now angry with me."
"Who is Lin Xiaoman?"
Chen Yongxin glared at her and said, "My ex."
When he and Lin Xiaoman were caught dating by her, he used a lot of food to coax her. After she ate so many snacks, she actually forgot who she was.
"Oh oh." Chen Jin remembered, but, "They are both exes, you really went out to eat with them?"
"It was to discuss business. Her company is our supplier. I didn't expect to meet her during this cooperation discussion." Chen Yongxin pinched his brows. "Unfortunately, Zhuang Yao saw us. She didn't listen even after I explained to her."
"Lin Xiaoman and I were dating, but that was all history many years ago. If I really wanted to, could I still find someone else to date and get married?"
"Don't just nod. Go talk to Zhuang Yao on your brother's behalf."
"Ah? What am I going to say?"
Chen Yongxin glared at her, "Who are you related to?"
Chen Jin shrugged. When faced with such a situation, she only had her own family and didn't want to get involved in the affairs of other couples. By the time they reconciled, she was caught between two odds.
"You were wrong in the first place. Everyone knows that you and Lin Xiaoman were dating, so you should have avoided suspicion. If you really couldn't avoid it, you should have told Sister Zhuang Yao in advance, or... Hey, that's not right. You two only went to discuss business and then had dinner together? Didn't she bring her colleagues, and did you not bring anyone from the company? It's normal for Sister Zhuang Yao to misunderstand when she saw it."
Seeing Chen Yongxin frowning, Chen Jin continued, "You are not wronged at all for being ignored. A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. Only you know what is in your heart. You have to make Sister Zhuang Yao feel at ease, right?"
"Sister Zhuang Yao is so good-tempered. You should just admit your mistake and apologize sincerely. It will be over if you talk it out. You still want me to talk to you about it. Sister Zhuang Yao is not making trouble for no reason. Why should I go to her? It's clearly your own fault. You don't even realize your mistake and you still want to avoid it."
Chen Yongxin originally firmly believed that he was not wrong, but after hearing what Chen Jin said... it seemed as if it was indeed his fault?
"Don't be confused, it's your fault! Go buy a gift and go apologize to Sister Zhuang Yao. Be sincere."
Chen Yongxin humbly asked for advice, "What do you think is the best gift to buy?"
Chen Jin was so angry that he put his hands on his hips and said, "You are my partner, not mine!"
How could there be such a person? ! If he wasn't her cousin, she would have wanted to call Sister Zhuang Yao to tell her the news: Leave him alone!
"Forget it, I won't embarrass you." Chen Yongxin's mood became much better. He patted her head and said, "Don't mention it. You analyzed other people's emotional problems very well."
Chen Jin read another meaning in his words: You are not good at dating, but you are good at analyzing emotional problems. To put it simply, the theoretical knowledge is rich, but the practice is a mess.
Chen Jin didn't want to chat with him anymore and said she was going out shopping in the afternoon to pick out a big gold bracelet. But as soon as he walked out of the company gate, a gentle female voice said, "Chen Yongxin."
Chen Jin seemed to have automatically triggered his gossip radar. He immediately stopped and looked at the woman walking towards him.
Although a few years can greatly change a person's temperament, the facial features will not undergo major changes. Chen Jin recognized at a glance that the person in front of her was Lin Xiaoman, her second brother's ex-girlfriend.
In Chen Jin's memory, the teenage Lin Xiaoman was a particularly gentle older sister. Now that time has passed, the eyes beneath Lin Xiaoman's gentle face have become more resolute. At first sight of meeting again after a long separation, Chen Jin felt that Lin Xiaoman was particularly attractive.
"You are the third sister, right?!" Lin Xiaoman looked for a long time before recognizing Chen Jin. The little girl who used to skip and jump behind Chen Yongxin to pick up snacks has now grown into a beautiful young lady, and she is almost unrecognizable.
Just now, she saw Chen Yongxin taking a photo of Chen Jin intimately, and she thought that the girl who went out to eat with Chen Yongxin last time didn’t look like this. It’s impossible that Chen Yongxin would change his partner after a period of time.
"Sister Xiaoman."
After greeting, Chen Jin tugged at the corner of Chen Yongxin's clothes: Why don't you say something?
"Why are you here?" The contracts between the two companies have already been signed, so there is nothing else that needs to be coordinated. And judging from Lin Xiaoman's attire, she doesn't look like she's here to discuss business. Chen Yongxin was a little unsure.
Lin Xiaoman smiled and said, "I was busy talking about work last time. I just happened to pass by your company today and wanted to see if you have time to go out for dinner together. We haven't seen each other for many years, so I want to catch up with old friends."
Chen Jin laughed in her heart, she thought that the gentleness and toughness she had just thought of was all a mistake.
"That's really unfortunate." Chen Jin said, "My second brother and I were just about to go to my second sister-in-law for dinner. Oh, Sister Xiaoman, my second brother is engaged now, so it's not appropriate for him to go out for dinner with his female classmates alone. So, how about I call my second sister-in-law and ask her to treat us?"
"......" Lin Xiaoman paused for a moment, then quickly returned to her original smile, saying in a gentle voice, "Since it's not convenient today, forget it. It's really not good to go out for dinner alone. There will be a gathering of old classmates in a few days. Can we talk about it then?"
Chen Yongxin found it funny to see Chen Jin looking at him with anger in her eyes. Is she his sister or Zhuang Yao's sister?
However, after being analyzed by her today, he also knew that he had indeed done something inappropriate, so he said: "I will not attend the class reunion. There are a lot of things going on in the company recently, and my partner and I are also preparing for our wedding at the end of the year, so we can't spare the time."
He has been very busy recently. In order to successfully pass the night school entrance exam at Nanjing University, he has been working and finding someone to tutor him, so he doesn't have much time to spend with Zhuang Yao.
Who would have thought that when we went out to have a meal together, we would meet Lin Xiaoman.
For him, what has passed is passed, and there is no possibility of turning back. However, what the third sister said was right. Only he himself knew what was in his heart. He could not ask Zhuang Yao to know nothing and trust him unconditionally.
His third sister really should open a relationship mediation center. There are a lot of big principles.
"Is that so? What a pity." Lin Xiaoman did not force it. She looked at Chen Jin and asked her whether she was still studying or already working.
"I just graduated this year and work as a teacher at school." Chen Jin added, "Sister Xiaoman, just call me Chen Jin."
Only people in her family call her the third sister, and occasionally Zhuang Yao also calls her that. Although Sister Xiaoman used to call her that when she was dating her second cousin, things are different now. She understands very well the principle that there is a difference between close and distant relatives.
"Oh, okay. I'll call you by your name then. A girl should not be called by her nickname all the time when she grows up. Being a teacher is a good thing. Which school is it? I know a lot of leaders in the education system. I'll introduce you to them when the time comes."
"No, no, I'm not thinking about getting promoted, so I don't need to get to know the leaders." She didn't even think about trying to please the leaders of the college, let alone the leaders who had no control over her.
As for this job, she would do it if she could do it, but if she was not happy with it, she would run away.
Lin Xiaoman no longer mentioned the introduction, but insisted on asking her which school she was teaching at now so that they could go out for dinner together in the future.
"Working at Nanjing University is very busy. I can't get off work on time during the weekdays and I have to work overtime on weekends. I don't have much personal time." Chen Jin said calmly that he had been working for half a month in a row and today was a day off that he had finally got.
"Sister Xiaoman, my second brother and I will leave first. My second sister-in-law has been waiting for a long time."
Lin Xiaoman forced a smile and said, "Okay."
Seeing that Chen Yongxin really followed him into the car, Chen Jin frowned, "Didn't you say you were going to look for Sister Zhuang Yao? Why did you get into my car? We are not going the same way."
"I'm too lazy to drive. Didn't you say you wanted to go to your second sister-in-law for dinner? Isn't this just right? Your second sister-in-law and I will treat you later."
Chen Yongxin laughed happily. Just now, he heard her calling her "Second Sister-in-law" repeatedly, as if she had rehearsed it in advance. She also told others that she was very busy with work...
"It's different when you're a counselor. Once you open your mouth, you can talk nonsense."
"Hey, everyone else is driving out, why aren't you driving?"
Just as he was about to start the car, his second cousin stopped him again, "Call your second sister-in-law first and ask her if she is at home or at the company now."
"You saw I was about to drive, why couldn't you call?"
Chen Yongxin said: "I was afraid she wouldn't answer if I called her."
Chen Jin rolled her eyes. What sin did she commit in her previous life? Her second cousin used her as a third wheel both times he dated someone.
She is just an extra tail.
When she was young, she didn't know much and knew that she could get delicious food if she went out with him. So when he said he would take her out, she would happily follow him, not caring who he was with.
But she is in her early twenties now, and will soon be 22 years old, and she still follows young couples around. Even if they don't find her annoying, she finds them annoying.
"Second brother, seriously, it would be unreasonable if you didn't give me a big red envelope when you got married."
