Chapter 5 Dad, I want to find you a wife
When Chen Yansen ran out of Beiyi Lane in one breath, he was embarrassed to find that his bicycle was left at the door of the Internet cafe.
For now, he only had this car, so he had no choice but to walk back.
"Huh? Are you back again?"
Wang Ziyan, who had just walked out of the Internet cafe, said to the brother next to him.
"Hello, it's Zi Yan. Girls really change a lot when they grow up."
Chen Yansen stopped and greeted with a smile.
"But you came to my house for dinner yesterday."
Wang Ziyan pouted her pink and shiny little lips and pretended to be angry.
"Haha, really?"
Chen Yansen opened the lock while doing it casually.
As for Wang Ziyan, he plans to keep a distance from her and minimize contact with her.
"Brother Sen, I will definitely do the two things you asked me to do properly."
Wang Zihao, who was standing aside, thought that Chen Yansen left because he was worried that he would not be reliable, so he patted his chest and made a promise.
"Well, see you tomorrow."
Chen Yansen understood the hidden meaning of Wang Zihao's words. It was obvious that the other party wanted to invest money and follow him to resell MP3 and MP4.
Then he nodded and waved goodbye.
"Brother, what did Chen Yansen ask you to do?"
Wang Ziyan didn't ask until Chen Yansen's back walked away.
"nothing."
Wang Zihao shook his head and avoided her gaze.
After all, if Chen Yansen was discovered stealing money for business, he would end up with blood torn apart.
When Brother Hao was out there in the gang, his main focus was on righteousness.
I can’t even tell my own sister! “Really?”
Wang Ziyan narrowed her long and narrow peach blossom eyes, stared straight at her brother, and asked back with a smile.
"Believe it or not."
Wang Zihao felt guilty when she looked at him, so he just stiffened his neck and refused to say a word.
There was no way. In terms of intelligence, Wang Ziyan was completely superior to him.
His quick thinking, understanding of complex problems and ability to solve them were far beyond his reach.
I studied hard all night and could only get into Chunshen No.2 Middle School.
However, Wang Ziyan, who had never attended a single tutoring class, was able to remain first in the grade and was specially recruited by Chunshen No. 1 Middle School in advance.
There are two schools, one is a key school in the city and the other is a key school in the province. The gap between them is self-evident.
He was worried that the more he spoke, the more loopholes would be revealed.
"Don't try to hide it from me."
Wang Ziyan snorted coldly and muttered softly.
…
…
Chen Yansen rode his bicycle, stopping and starting along the way. After finding a noodle restaurant on North Street to fill his stomach, he slowly walked into an alley.
Riding three hundred meters to the east, a familiar bookstore came into view.
Guobin Bookstore.
Chen Yansen stood at the door, staring at the middle-aged man moving books into the house, and couldn't help but be stunned.
It turns out that Old Chen is already showing signs of aging.
Although he is only forty years old, half of his hair is white. The upright figure in his youth now appears a little hunched.
"Have you had lunch?"
Chen Guobin had just put the latest editions of "Readers" and "Youth Digest" neatly in place when he saw a young man standing at the door.
The side bangs were all cut off and replaced with clean and refreshing short hair.
He looks a little like him when he was young, but his eyes and eyebrows look more like his mother.
"A bowl of knife-cut noodles and two taels of potstickers. I brought you one too."
Chen Yansen had mixed feelings. He originally wanted to go up and hug Lao Chen, but was afraid of scaring him. Finally, he sighed and pretended to speak casually.
"Ah? Thank you, son."
Chen Guobin was stunned when he heard this and subconsciously took the packing bag.
Feeling the warmth of the food, Chen Guobin realized for the first time that his son seemed to have changed.
It was just that his twisted personality prevented him from saying anything heartwarming, and along with an extremely stiff thank you, he took out a hundred-dollar bill from his pocket and stuffed it into Chen Yansen's hand.
I told him to eat more because it was the time for him to grow.
"Lao Chen, I want to learn how to drive."
Chen Yansen was not polite and put it directly into his pocket, then sat opposite Chen Guobin and spoke directly.
"Learning to drive?"
Chen Guobin's hand holding the chopsticks froze for a moment, then he nodded and said, "Men should learn how to drive."
Previously, he had suggested that his son take the driving test during the summer vacation. However, Chen Yansen’s mind was only filled with Zhou Keyuan, the Internet cafe and the billiard room. After a few arguments, the two ended the matter.
"How about I call your third uncle?"
Chen Guobin thought for a moment and said with a frown.
"There is only one driving school in Chunshen?"
Chen Yansen asked back.
He knew very well the true relationship between Lao Chen and his three uncles. During the holidays, they had very few basic contacts. If he asked for help at this time, he would definitely be looked down upon and squeezed out.
"Okay, I understand."
When Chen Guobin heard his son say this, he immediately felt relieved.
Since his wife passed away, he had only been to the Liang family once. His father-in-law and mother-in-law's words and deeds were nothing more than cursing that he had a cheap life and had brought death to their little daughter.
The eldest and second uncles also disliked him. Although the youngest brother-in-law's attitude was gentler, it was not much better.
As Chen Yansen grew up, the relationship between the two families eased, but it was limited to visiting each other to pay New Year's greetings on the second day of the Lunar New Year.
"Huizhen, it seems our son has finally grown up."
Chen Guobin lowered his head and continued to eat, feeling a warm feeling in his heart.
"Old Chen, can I discuss something with you?"
Chen Yansen looked at Lao Chen and waited until he finished his noodles before asking cautiously.
"What is it?"
Chen Guobin was in a good mood, and seeing his son's serious look, he sat up straight and prepared to listen carefully.
"You are only 40 years old this year. Are you really not going to find a life partner? At the last parents' meeting, Meng Jun's mother praised you for being mature and stylish, a bit like Zun Long, and having a scholarly air..."
Chen Yansen spoke slowly, and his expression did not seem like he was joking.
Chen Guobin's smile froze instantly, his mouth opened wide, as if he had lost his mind.
"You don't like Meng Jun's mother? In fact, our class teacher Zhang Li is also interested in you. The most important thing is that she is only 33 years old this year, so she should still be able to have children!"
Upon seeing this, Chen Yansen thought that Old Chen didn't like plump women, so he quickly changed the subject and recommended another candidate for stepmother.
"You bastard, I'm going to beat you to death!"
Chen Guobin's face gradually turned red. After a roar, he picked up a ruler and swung it towards Chen Yansen's head.
"Old Chen, do you have any conscience? I introduced you to a wife, and you treat me like this!"
Chen Yansen was so scared that he stood up and retreated, ran out of the bookstore, and stood at the door and shouted.
The tender moment between father and son didn't even last ten minutes.
"Old Chen, your son is still the most filial one!"
"Hahaha, finding a stepmother for him, what a scorpion daddy - one of a kind!"
"Brother Bing, what Yansen said is correct!"
The owners of the surrounding shops heard the noise and poked their heads out to watch the fun. A few familiar uncles and aunts even started making jokes loudly.
"Get in here, you bastard!"
Chen Guobin said angrily with a stern face.
"Old Chen, don't disbelieve me, our head teacher can really have more children. I don't mind having more brothers or sisters in the future."
Chen Yansen was not afraid of him and continued to persuade him while standing at the door.
"Student Chen Yansen, I didn't hear what you just said clearly. Could you please repeat it again?"
Zhang Li, who was not far away, held the lesson plan in her hand and spoke with gritted teeth, the ballpoint pen in her hand squeaking.
Chen Yansen slowly turned his head and smiled awkwardly but politely: "Hello, Teacher Zhang. Goodbye, Teacher Zhang."
After saying that, he didn't even dare to ask Lao Chen for the driving school tuition. He quickly got on his bicycle and chose to run away immediately.
"Teacher Zhang, children are young and ignorant, please don't take it to heart."
Chen Guobin rubbed his hands awkwardly, cursing in his heart what a rip-off, while forcing a bitter smile on his face.
"It's okay. It's okay."
Zhang Li also looked embarrassed. She quickly exchanged greetings and said goodbye, then left without looking back.
