Chapter 1230 Tension



Zhou Yuanyuan was very satisfied that Cao was able to solve this difficult problem by himself.

Over the years, Aunt Gu and Zhao Cao had been helping to clean the Zhao Qingshan family's old house. After the Chinese New Year this year, Aunt Gu was not feeling well, so the task of cleaning the house fell to Zhao Cao.

Zhao Cao was a diligent girl. Before going to Kyoto City, she cleaned Zhao Qingshan's house carefully.

When Zhou Yuanyuan and the others came back this time, they saw that the house was clean and spotless. Zhao Qingshan and Zhou Yuanyuan had a better impression of Zhao Cao.

Because the house had been uninhabited for a long time, there was no bed sheet or anything except a straw mat.

Zhou Yuanyuan took out the sheets and quilt covers from the cabinet. Just as she made the bed, Zhou Jiasheng came.

"Sister." Zhou Jiasheng stood at the door of Zhou Yuanyuan's room and smiled at her foolishly.

"Brother, if you want to go find Sister Cao now, I advise you to forget it. If you go over now and ruin Sister Cao's business, I guarantee that she will never pay attention to you again." Seeing Zhou Jiasheng showing such a silly smile, Zhou Yuanyuan knew that her brother's heart must have flown to Cao again.

Zhou Yuanyuan hadn't forgotten that Cao had just used the excuse of "Zhou Jiasheng didn't like her" to deceive Zhao Hongsheng and his wife. If Zhao Hongsheng and his wife discovered Zhou Jiasheng's infatuation with Cao, they wouldn't just lower the bride price; they might even double it.

"What's up? Do you need our help?" Sure enough, Zhou Jiasheng's focus shifted again.

"Brother, you think too highly of Sister Cao, don't you? Is there anything Sister Cao can't accomplish?" Zhou Yuanyuan curled her lips. Don't think Zhou Yuanyuan didn't know that when Zhou Jiasheng first fell in love with Zhao Cao, it was Zhao Cao's strong and independent character that caught his eye.

"That's true. Cao has always been more capable than other girls." Zhou Jiasheng's face lit up with pride when Zhou Yuanyuan praised Zhao Cao. Zhou Yuanyuan was irritated. A brother who had always been obsessed with his sister, now that he met his "true love," the girl he kissed became "the other girl"?

"However, sister, you are just like grass, very capable." Zhou Jiasheng saw that his sister's face was not good, so he quickly made amends.

Hehe! Zhou Yuanyuan didn't want to continue arguing with Zhou Jiasheng and was getting angrier and angrier.

"Brother, I suggest you don't do anything now. Go back to your room and go to sleep." Zhou Yuanyuan pointed at the door of Zhou Jiasheng's room and drove Zhou Jiasheng away.

"Sister, please don't! I still have things to do! When Cao left just now, I saw that she seemed to be crying. You didn't let me go, so why don't you help me comfort her?" Zhou Jiasheng didn't achieve his goal, so of course he refused to leave. Cao's slightly red eyes before leaving still reappeared in Zhou Jiasheng's mind. Zhou Jiasheng regretted not catching up with her.

"Sister Cao isn't sad, she's just..." Zhou Yuanyuan thought for a moment, but decided not to tell Zhou Jiasheng that Zhao Cao had burst into tears of joy after hearing his "declaration of love." It was their own business to worry about it. Zhou Yuanyuan didn't want to pay attention to her overthinking brother; she felt exhausted.

"Sister, please help me persuade Cao! Cao is a very worried person. She will definitely be sad because of the way her family treated her." Zhou Jiasheng's heart was in a knot. He was afraid that Cao would not understand.

"Brother, believe me, Sister Cao is really fine." Zhou Yuanyuan was a little impatient. Having a brother who loved his girlfriend so much, showing off his affection to her and bullying her because Brother Ziqing wasn't around? This life was unbearable.

"Well, okay! Sister, do you know when grandpa will go to the Cao family?" Zhou Jiasheng glanced at Zhao Qingshan's closed door and asked softly.

After Zhao Qingshan and Zhao Youtian entered the house, they closed the door and whispered to each other. They hadn't come out for more than ten minutes, which made Zhou Jiasheng anxious. He wished Zhao Qingshan would appear in front of him right away.

"Brother, can you calm down? Great-grandfather has already agreed to this marriage, and grandpa will definitely go to Sister Cao's house to propose on your behalf. Don't rush grandpa, otherwise, you know the consequences." Zhou Yuanyuan waved her fist, wanting to knock her brother unconscious with one punch. She still had a lot of things to do here! Her brother kept following her and talking nonsense, and he was bored!

"Oh! Sister, my heart is beating so fast. Sister, are you and I sick?" Zhou Jiasheng covered his chest and said something that made Zhou Yuanyuan almost burst out laughing.

That's because you're nervous, not sick. If your heart stops beating, you're dead, right?

"Yeah, brother, you are sick, lovesick." Zhou Yuanyuan said seriously.

Zhou Jiasheng blushed, but his heart was filled with sweetness whenever he thought of Cao Cao's beautiful figure.

"Brother, believe me, if you want your marriage with Sister Cao to go smoothly, you should go back to your room and sleep now. You are not allowed to step out of the door before I call you. Do you understand?" Zhou Yuanyuan's spiritual sense had already "seen" that Zhao Hongsheng had already walked out of the door and was walking towards the village entrance.

Zhou Yuanyuan knew that Zhao Hongsheng must have come to her grandfather to explain the betrothal gift issue. In order to prevent Zhou Jiasheng from causing more trouble, Zhou Yuanyuan decided to send him away quickly.

Otherwise, if Zhou Jiasheng saw Zhao Hongsheng, he would definitely rush to curry favor with him. Zhou Yuanyuan would not let her brother ruin the good situation she had worked so hard to achieve.

"Sister, I don't want to sleep. I want to talk to you." Zhou Jiasheng made a bitter face and refused to move.

How could Zhou Jiasheng sleep without a marriage decided? If Zhao Qingshan and Zhao Youtian hadn't closed the door and were discussing things after entering, Zhou Jiasheng would have wanted to drag Zhao Qingshan to Cao's house immediately to finalize his marriage with Cao.

"You have to sleep even if you don't want to. Brother, look at your face, you look as haggard as a patient. If you don't take good care of yourself, we will go to Sister Cao's house to propose marriage. When your future father-in-law and mother-in-law see you like this, will they suspect that you are a sickly person? If they refuse to marry Cao to you, then you can just cry!" Zhou Yuanyuan suddenly had an idea and brought up Zhou Jiasheng's marriage to scare him.

"Ah? My face looks really bad?" Zhou Jiasheng couldn't help but raised his hand and touched his face.

Zhou Jiasheng was so excited during the whole trip that he hadn't slept at all. Without proper rest, his complexion would definitely be a little worse. No way! He wanted to show Cao's family a perfect version of himself.

Without waiting for Zhou Yuanyuan to nod, Zhou Jiasheng hurried back to his room to catch up on his sleep.

Looking at her brother's hurried back, Zhou Yuanyuan's eyes became inexplicably moist.

In his previous life, Zhou Jiasheng was disfigured and died young. He never married and never had a girl he liked. Now, seeing Zhou Jiasheng, who is trapped in love, Zhou Yuanyuan feels happy no matter how she looks at him.
