But his second brother's eyes clearly showed that he didn't want him to agree.
Zhou Yuxuan thought for a moment and then asked, "What do you need me for, sister-in-law?"
"It's nothing serious. If you're busy, that's fine. We can talk about it another day."
When Jian Yixue heard Zhou Yuxuan's words, she assumed he was busy with something and decided to talk about it later.
Anyway, there's no rush.
The reason she didn't say it outright was that she didn't want too many people to know that she had privately agreed to treat Old Master Huangfu.
Upon seeing this, Zhou Yuxuan understood that Jian Yixue was most likely looking for him about medical matters.
The reason they didn't say anything is probably because they didn't want too many people to know, so as to avoid causing trouble.
From his conversations with Jian Yixue, he knew that she was someone who disliked trouble.
Then, after thinking for a moment, she said, "Okay, sister-in-law. I'm free from now on. Just call me whenever you're free, and I promise I'll be there anytime!"
Jian Yixue looked at Zhou Yuxuan and nodded.
This was exactly what she had in mind, so she agreed.
Seeing this, Zhou Yuxuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
It's really difficult for him to avoid offending either side.
Seeing that the matter had been successfully resolved, Zhou Yuxuan finally mustered up the courage to look at Ye Mohan.
At this moment, Ye Mohan was staring at Zhou Yuxuan. When Zhou Yuxuan looked over, he gave him a "you know what's good for you" look.
Seeing this, Zhou Yuxuan finally felt relieved.
It's truly a battle of gods that leaves mortals to suffer.
Unfortunately, he was that incredibly unlucky mortal.
...
Seeing that the matter was resolved, Jian Yixue decided to leave.
Jian Yixue looked at Ye Mohan and asked, "Is there anything else?"
Ye Mohan shook his head. "No."
"Shall we go back?" Jian Yixue asked after thinking for a moment.
"Um."
Having received a reply, Jian Yixue looked at the Zhou Wenshan couple who had been ignored.
"Uncle Zhou, Aunt Zhou, we'll be leaving now since we have nothing else to do here."
Zhou Wenshan nodded to Jian Yixue, "Okay, see you next time." Then he looked at Ye Mohan, "Mohan, please give my regards to your grandfather. We'll go see him when he's feeling better."
Madam Zhou smiled and chimed in, "Yes, Mo Han, we will personally visit the old man then."
"Okay, I will pass it on."
Ye Mohan nodded slightly in reply.
Jian Yixue then looked at Zhou Yuxuan, who was still standing, and said, "Then we'll be going now."
Zhou Yuxuan nodded.
Then, the two left the conference room hand in hand.
...
In the conference room
Only the Zhou family of three remained.
As Mrs. Zhou watched the two leaving hand in hand with admiration in her eyes, she suddenly remembered that she had been single for over twenty years, and she felt a surge of anger.
Madam Zhou turned to look at her son, her expression one of disappointment and frustration.
Finally, she couldn't help but complain, "Look at Mo Han, he's the same age as you, and he's already married, and he might even have a baby."
Look at you again, I really want to shove you back in!
Who can understand how she feels as an elderly mother!
Sigh, now that she's so old, all she hopes for is that her son can get married and have children soon, so she can also enjoy the joys of family life.
That's why she agreed to the Qian family's suggestion to let the two of them communicate and develop their feelings for each other.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yuxuan looked completely innocent.
How did this fire end up on him again?
Seeing his mother taking her anger out on him, Zhou Yuxuan didn't dare to argue back.
The pleading gaze suddenly turned to Zhou Wenshan, who was sitting upright to the side.
Zhou Wenshan turned a deaf ear.
He already knew his wife's temperament, so he didn't dare to say anything after Ye Mohan and the other person walked past.
My son is still not as important as my wife.
Between his son and his wife, Zhou Wenshan decisively chose his wife.
After all, the son belongs to someone else, but the wife belongs to oneself.
Seeing that his father was ignoring him, Zhou Yuxuan secretly tugged at Zhou Wenshan's sleeve.
Zhou Wenshan remained unmoved.
Seeing this, Zhou Yuxuan knew that his father was deliberately ignoring him.
Every time his mother said something to him, his father would firmly stand on his mother's side.
Every time, it's the same, and the worst part is that he never learns his lesson. Every time he asks his father for help, he ends up with the same result.
"He was probably adopted," Zhou Yuxuan thought to himself.
Suddenly, her mother's voice came, "Don't try anything funny!"
Zhou Yuxuan immediately withdrew his hand, looking obedient and receptive to instruction.
Seeing this, Madam Zhou's anger subsided somewhat.
Thinking about the wrong things I had arranged for my son, I suddenly felt a little guilty.
After thinking for a moment, Madam Zhou said earnestly, "It's time for you to consider your life's most important matter."
You are our only son, and we hope that after we are gone, you will have someone close to you by your side.
Mom knows you're interested in medicine, and since you were little, your parents have always respected your wishes. You like studying medicine, so we support you in doing so. You don't want to inherit the family business, and your parents haven't forced you; we've allowed you to pursue what you've always loved.
But when it comes to the most important thing in life, Mom still hopes you can spend some time and energy finding your own happiness.
Hearing his mother's emotional words, Zhou Yuxuan felt very guilty towards his parents.
For so many years, he has always lived according to his own wishes and has never thought about so much.
He dared not delve into the weight of love behind it all, fearing that he would be unable to bear the burden once he understood.
Only now, when his mother brought it up, did he realize how selfish he had been.
Compared to his many brothers, he lived a relatively carefree life.
Although it can be tiring, he doesn't feel exhausted from his beloved job; instead, he's full of fighting spirit.
Zhou Wenshan looked at his wife and nodded in agreement.
“Yuxuan, your mother’s words are not to blame you. She is just worried that after we pass away, she will be worried about you being alone in this world.”
As for what you want to do, then do it. As long as your father is alive, he will always be there to support you.
Of course, if I'm not around, then you'll have to rely on yourself.
"Regarding your marriage, your mother and I will no longer force you to be with someone you don't like. We give you absolute freedom, and we only hope that you can pay more attention to this matter."
If you meet the right girl that day, remember not to miss the opportunity. And don't worry about whether we'll like her.
"Whatever you like, we parents will like it too."
Zhou Wenshan's words deeply moved Zhou Yuxuan, and his eyes gradually welled up with tears.
I haven't shed a tear in many years.
Zhou Yuxuan tilted his head back, forcing back his tears.
After a long while, Zhou Yuxuan looked at his father and said, "I know, thank you, Mom and Dad."
I have seen all your efforts, thank you for everything you have done for me.
Zhou Wenshan nodded upon seeing this, put his arm around Madam Zhou's shoulder, and patted her gently to comfort her.
