Chapter 335: Random Matchmaking
Chapter 335: Random Matchmaking
Ding ding ding... Sun Jingtao saw Hou Baiwan and the others leave, then went upstairs again, knocked on the door gently, and heard his father shouting inside,
"Come in,"
Director Sun's tone softened noticeably, as if he knew it was his own son this time.
"Director Sun,"
As soon as he came in, Sun Jingtao called out "Director Sun", but his father gave him a cold look and scolded him,
"Close the door tightly, come here."
"Yeah, okay."
"Sit down, I have something to tell you."
Sun Jingtao nodded again and sat down on the sofa at his father's instruction.
"You haven't been home for two months, haven't you? Don't you know your mom misses you? Why didn't she even call? We two old people have to call you, and you're always away. Tell me, what have you been busy with all this time?"
"What can I be busy with? I'm just an assistant. I'm in charge of the team down there right now. I'm too busy to call you. Okay, I get it. I'll call my mom when I get home."
"Go back? What do you mean, you're just leaving without even reaching home?"
"Dad, I'm here on leave. I still have work to do, so I need to go back quickly. Please tell me what's going on. I'm here to listen."
Director Sun looked at his son in front of him. Although there was a look of longing in his eyes as an old father did for his son, a trace of resentment was suppressed when he saw his son was so indifferent.
"Okay, okay, I know you're busy, but there's something I need to ask you on behalf of your mother. How's your girlfriend's situation going?"
Upon hearing this, Sun Jingtao frowned slightly and said impatiently,
"I don't want to go back, but you and my mom keep urging me to do this. I've told you countless times that this isn't a matter of urgency; it depends on fate.
Well, since that's all I have to say, tell my mother I won't be single and I'll bring her a daughter-in-law sooner or later. Will she be relieved now?"
"You little brat, you get impatient when I say a few words to you? Sit down, who told you to leave?"
Sun Jingtao's butt, which had just been raised, sat down again.
"Don't blame us for being anxious. Come, look at how old you are this year? Also, don't you know that your grandfather has been looking forward to holding his great-grandson for several years? If not for us, you should also work hard for your grandfather, right?
Also, you'd better go back and see your grandfather today. He has been in poor health recently and said that he must be sick since you haven't been back for several months.
If you still have your grandfather in your heart, go back and see him. He is so old, how many years can he live?"
"Okay, okay, I'll go back. Is it okay if I go back?"
"You get impatient when I say this,"
Dad's face was filled with anger, but he finally shook his head helplessly and his expression faded away.
"Um, Zhang Xueying who just came doesn't have a boyfriend yet, right?"
"Dad, you can't match people up randomly!"
"What kind of matchmaking did I do? You and her were classmates from elementary school to junior high school. I think we can give this childhood sweetheart friendship a try.
Besides, I think this girl is pretty, but she always has short hair, which makes her look a bit uncomfortable. But I still know this child, you guys..."
“De de de…”
When Sun Jingtao heard this, he was even more unwilling to listen to what was said. He quickly stood up and said,
"Don't worry about it. If I really liked Zhang Xueying, I wouldn't have waited until today. Just don't worry about it for now.
Next year, at the latest, maybe by the end of this year, I'll bring my daughter-in-law back to you, how about that?"
"You little brat, is there something wrong?"
When I heard my son say this, the anger that had just risen up in my heart was washed away by joy.
"Dad, my friend is still waiting for me downstairs. I'll talk to you next time I come back. I'll talk to you next time."
Sun Jingtao saw that his father was interested and tried to escape, but his father would not give him a chance to escape. He shouted,
"Stop right there, kid. Come back, come back..."
Then he walked over, grabbed Sun Jingtao's arm, pulled him to the sofa, and pushed him down forcefully.
Sun Jingtao was really frightened by his father's sudden outburst. He sat on the sofa in a daze for a long time before he reacted.
"Stinky boy, tell daddy quickly, what kind of girl is this? Is she pretty? Where is she from? What does she do?"
The father's series of questions made Sun Jingtao even more confused. Was this really his father, the director? Wasn't this his mother possessed?
"Dad, please don't be like this. I'm scared. Isn't it okay for me to say it?"
"Is that right?"
Director Sun finally let go of his son's hand and looked at Sun Jingtao expectantly.
"Dad, let me be clear, I like her, but she hasn't agreed yet. But I'm confident I can win her over, it just takes some time."
"Son, good job, you're like dad in this respect, ha..."
Sun Jingtao was really scared by his father today. He had never seen his father so excited in his life.
"But Dad, since you insist on knowing, I think there's something I must tell you."
"Well, you mean son."
Looking at his father's excited face, Sun Haitao sighed in his heart and shook his head helplessly.
"Dad, she's just a little girl from the countryside, less than 20 years old."
"Well, you are much older than him."
Director Sun nodded vigorously while speaking.
"Boy, you really need to work hard on this. After all, she's a little girl. She's pretty good-looking, right?"
Director Sun seemed to understand his son's thoughts immediately, and even blinked at his son, which was very rare.
Today he has completely overturned his son's impression of him as a father.
"Work hard, son. If you like someone, then you have to work harder."
"Dad, are you obedient but not listening to the point?"
Sun Jingtao finally looked at his father who was more excited than himself and said helplessly,
"She's from the countryside, and there aren't many people left at home. Can you and Mom accept this?"
"You little bastard, aren't you from the countryside? You were born in the city thanks to me and your mother."
Hearing this, Sun Jingtao smiled. Does this mean he doesn't mind?
"Tell me, what makes you like this little girl so much?"
"Oh……"
When talking about Lang Xiujuan, Sun Jingtao's mouth corners immediately curled up and his eyes shone with light.
"The first time I saw her, I was attracted by her beauty. Later, as I got to know her better, I was moved by her kindness, diligence, and hard work. Dad, do you remember those books I asked you to find for me?"
"Um,"
Dad Sun nodded quickly and looked at his son.
"These are all ways I came up with to pursue her."
"She likes reading?"
This surprised Sun's father quite a bit.
"Well, she not only likes reading, but also loves studying. Now she works as a cashier at my friend, oh! Han Changping's rice mill.
Dad, you don’t know that her handwriting is very beautiful.”
"Well, okay, do you have a photo of the girl?"
Speaking of photos, I have to thank Han Changping. The photos I have always treasured were given to me by Han Changping.
Of course Sun Jingtao didn't know that the photo was actually retrieved by Han Changping from Bai Hanshan.
