Chapter 252: Learning to let go is also a kind of fulfillment

"Look at you. You've been gone for a year. Except for the few days during the Chinese New Year, you've never been seen. Who else is in a relationship like you, always invisible? Even if Xiaoqing has some opinions about you, she deserves it."

Zhang Baoping took a puff of cigarette, looked at Cheng Hao's dark face, immediately pursed his lips, and gave him a serious word of advice,

"Brother, don't always look so serious, as if someone owes you 200 yuan. From my experience with Lingzi, feelings are developed through getting along. If you have someone in your heart, be more attentive."

"I agree with Pingzi. Your sister-in-law and I pursued him relentlessly before he agreed. Later, your sister-in-law said that if I hadn't been thick-skinned and hardworking enough to replace his family's gas tank for more than half a year, his father-in-law and mother-in-law would not have agreed to our relationship."

Chang Hui laughed and lectured him based on his own experience.

"Xiaoqing is a good girl. If you miss this village, you will miss that store."

Cheng Hao listened to the two people preaching in turn, smiled bitterly, and recounted to them roughly what Dai Qing had said to him.

"Although I was far away and didn't feel like a boyfriend, the girl never seemed to understand. It seemed that she was not interested in marriage as she said. I could even sense her disgust when she mentioned the word marriage."

In theory, for a person to hate marriage, he or she must have suffered hardships in marriage.

But the girl was only nineteen years old and had never experienced anything... Could it be that she had a psychological trauma from having no parents and having to depend on her grandfather since childhood?

When Cheng Hao mentioned Grandpa Dai Qing, his heart was moved.

"From what Dai Qing said, if you want to be an excellent fortune teller and deal with the way of heaven, there are many taboos... I respect her choice, and it's not my character to cling to it. But as a friend, I will still protect her."

When you are just joking around, you can act as much as you want. But once the truth is out, it becomes annoying if you keep pestering.

Sometimes, learning to let go is also a kind of fulfillment. He doesn't like people who are clingy and naturally doesn't allow himself to become such a person.

Everyone’s life is not easy, why add to others’ burden?

Hearing Cheng Hao's attitude, Chang Hui and Zhang Baoping looked at each other. They had been comrades-in-arms for many years, so how could they not understand his character?

The two of them patted his shoulders helplessly and said, "Take it easy. How about we have a drink tonight?"

My buddy was heartbroken, he looked quite pitiful, so I accompanied him in his drunken and dreamy life.

"Come on, you're getting married today, and I don't want my sister-in-law to come and scold me."

Cheng Hao rolled his eyes at him rudely and cleared his throat.

"Xiao Qing invited me to dinner tonight, saying she was going to do it for me."

The girl can take it and let it go, so he can't be afraid.

"Hey, what does this mean? Are we wasting all this time?"

Zhang Baoping looked at him meaningfully and said something teasingly.

"Well, today is an important day, let's go back to our own homes and do our own things~"

In response to his friend's teasing, Cheng Hao said that he couldn't even say that he was heartbroken now because it was over before it even began.

After I figured it out, the sadness in my heart disappeared and only a bitter smile remained.

"You are very happy today, so don't worry about me. In about half a year, I will set up a company here, so I won't have to travel back and forth anymore."

Zhang Baoping's eyes lit up.

"That's great. The three of us brothers will be together forever. My old man wants to develop new business and build a business hotel that is connected to the international market. He is looking for a location. The first choice is a development zone, close to an office building. Then we can be neighbors."

"It's too early for you to say that. Let's not talk about it today. Go ahead and get busy. We're leaving first."

Chang Hui cursed with a smile and left with Cheng Hao, "I'll drive you home. It's been a while since you've been with your aunt, right?"

“Always busy.”

Cheng Hao raised his hand and pinched his brows. He came back last night, took a shower at home, and then came to the hotel to help.

"Being busy is just an excuse. Auntie is urging you, right?" As someone who has been through this, there is nothing Chang Hui cannot understand.

"I had an excuse before, but it was crushed before I even started." As soon as he got home, he was faced with double interrogation from his parents, and he couldn't stand it at all.

"You deserve it. Who told you to be a vegetarian like a monk? I'm telling you, I'm going to be a father."

A few days ago, his wife suddenly fainted, and he was so scared that he sent her to the hospital. It turned out that she had been pregnant for more than a month. After two years of marriage, he was finally going to be a father, and he was excited just thinking about it.

Seeing Chang Hui's proud and arrogant expression, Cheng Hao turned his head to look at him with deep eyes.

"Congratulations on becoming a father."

"Thank you, you should do your best too. Don't wait until my son can make soy sauce and you still don't have a wife?"

Chang Hui grinned, very proud.

Cheng Hao: “…”

On such a happy day, he really wanted to swear.

"Okay, stop looking so gloomy. When my wife gives birth, I'll let you be the godfather."

"That sounds like a human thing to say. I will prepare a big red envelope for my godson when the time comes." Cheng Hao smiled, got off the car at the doorstep and went home, waiting for the barbecue in the evening.

Chang Hui stuck his head out of the car window.

"Brother, since you have no chance here, how about asking your sister-in-law to help you and see if there is a girl of the right age in her workplace to find you a match?"

Cheng Hao pursed his lips and put one hand in his pocket, "No, I'm not interested in blind dates."

Getting married through a blind date is like rushing someone onto a shelf, it just makes you feel uncomfortable.

"Hey, don't be so stubborn. You're already an older man. If you don't hurry up, you won't be able to have a child." Chang Hui saw his resistance and provoked him again.

Cheng Hao narrowed his eyes and just as he took a step forward, Chang Hui immediately tried to climb up the car window and slip away.

"Hey, son, you're back so soon. How does it feel to be a best man? Are you jealous?" Just when Cheng Hao was feeling depressed, someone patted his arm. Cheng's mother was looking at him with a smile.

"Not jealous." Cheng Hao came back to his senses and spoke calmly.

"You are already old, how long do you want to wait?"

Mother Cheng glared at him with a resentful tone.

"Even the most unreliable Pingzi is married, and you are the only one left. When your comrades gather in the future, they will have families with them, but you, an old bachelor, how can you show up?"

Cheng Hao: “…”

What kind of day is he having today?

So he came back specifically to be abused?

"Don't be in a daze. Tell me what happened to the girl you were staring at last time? When are you going to bring her back for me to see?"

Mother Cheng stared at him with a bright smile.

"Don't be embarrassed. Mom is not that old-fashioned. It's okay if she's younger. The worst that can happen is that you just have to be more accommodating in the future."

Hearing his mother's urging, Cheng Hao felt even more upset. If he had known, he would not have used this excuse to stop his mother from introducing him to a blind date.

Now that the person is gone, what excuse can you use to get away with it?

"Did you have a quarrel with someone, kid?"
