Chapter 327 Envy and Loss



When Zhou Yi heard that Ma Peipei actually thought of holding a proposal ceremony, he thought it was quite avant-garde, and it was obvious that he really cared about Xu Xiaoxiu.

"Okay, no problem. When do you want? What do you need me to do?" Zhou Yi agreed with a smile.

"Tomorrow afternoon, you will be responsible for gathering Jinghai's friends together and then bringing Xiaoxiu over. I have already prepared the place." Ma Peipei said mysteriously.

"Okay, Peipei, you kept it a secret well." Zhou Yi said with a smile into the microphone.

"I feel sorry to trouble you because you have a lot of things to do recently." Ma Peipei knew that a lot of things had happened between the Su family and Meiyi recently, and he felt really embarrassed to trouble her. Besides, this was a surprise for Xu Xiaoxiu, so he wanted to do it himself.

"Okay, where can I get it? Give me the address." Zhou Yi didn't say anything else.

Ma Peipei gave Zhou Yi the address for tomorrow's proposal and hung up the phone.

Seeing Zhou Yi smiling so happily, Yun Gaofei asked what was the matter.

Zhou Yi told Yun Gaofei what Ma Peipei was going to do, and urged him to change his clothes, pick up Yun Xiaoyun first, and then return to Su's house.

As a result, they did not see Yun Xiaoyun when they arrived at Jinghai University. Zhou Yi was a little worried: "Mr. Yun, I haven't seen Xiaoyun in the past few days. Is there anything wrong?"

Zhou Yi was no longer worried about the affairs of the Qin and Long families at this time. He realized that he seemed to have not seen Yun Xiaoyun since the last dinner.

"Xiao Yun has grown up and has been in Jinghai for a year, so nothing should happen to him." Yun Gaofei replied, but in fact he was also quite worried.

"Jinghai University hasn't started school yet, and today is the Lantern Festival. Where can she go?" Zhou Yi had a guess in his mind, would Yun Xiaoyun go to find Qin Bei?

"How about we go to the Qin family first?" Yun Gaofei felt something was amiss when he heard Zhou Yi say that. Xiaoyun rarely acted like this. Even before, even if he was still in class, he would come to Yi Mansion or the army to find him every two or three days. This time, he hadn't seen him for nearly ten days.

"Okay." Zhou Yi nodded, but she was really worried.

Yun Gaofei drove Zhou Yixian to the Qin family in Yanshan. As a result, when they arrived at the Qin family, they saw Yun Xiaoyun standing not far from the Qin family's gate.

Yun Gaofei stopped the car. Zhou Yi motioned him to wait in the car while she got out and walked to Yun Xiaoyun's side.

"Xiaoyun, why are you here?" Zhou Yi stood beside Yun Xiaoyun and asked softly.

Zhou Yi found that Yun Xiaoyun had become thinner after not seeing her for ten days, which made her even more worried.

"Sister-in-law, are you here to see Brother Qin?" Yun Xiaoyun didn't dare to look into Zhou Yi's eyes. She lowered her head slightly and asked softly.

"I came to find you." Zhou Yi said frankly.

"Looking for me?" Yun Xiaoyun was a little surprised.

"Your brother and I went to Jinghai University but couldn't find you. We were a little worried. We guessed that you were not in school or back to Yi Mansion, and that you might have come to the Qin family. Turns out you are here." Zhou Yi held Yun Xiaoyun's hand. He always felt that something was different about her, but he couldn't tell what was different.

"Sister-in-law, I'm sorry for making you worry." Yun Xiaoyun replied in a low voice.

"Xiaoyun, did something happen?" Zhou Yi looked at Yun Xiaoyun worriedly.

"No, nothing happened." Yun Xiaoyun's face turned pale instantly and he answered in a panic.

Looking at Yun Xiaoyun's reaction, Zhou Yi became even more suspicious. Something must have happened, but she just didn't want to say it.

"Xiao Yun, let's go back and celebrate the festival." Zhou Yi did not choose to continue asking at this time, thinking of chatting with her again tonight.

Yun Xiaoyun glanced at the Qin family, then nodded and followed Zhou Yi into the car. When the three of them returned to the Su residence, all the Su family members were already at home.

The whole family celebrated the Lantern Festival together. Zhou Yi and his friends did not return to Yi Mansion until nearly ten o'clock in the evening.

As soon as I returned to Yi Mansion, I saw Ma Peipei at the door.

When Ma Peipei saw Zhou Yi and his friends’ car stop, he walked over with a gift box in his hand: “Xiaoyi, Gaofei, Xiaoyun, you’re finally back.”

"Peipei? Why are you here so late?" Zhou Yi got out of the car and looked at him with some confusion.

Ma Peipei raised the gift box in her hand somewhat embarrassedly, then looked at them and said, "I prepared a dress for Xiaoxiu to wear tomorrow and brought it to you. I would like to trouble you to make sure Xiaoxiu wears this dress to the event tomorrow."

Zhou Yi looked at Ma Peipei with a smile, then said jokingly, "Not bad, Peipei, you're really attentive."

Yun Xiaoyun looked at Ma Peipei and Zhou Yi with some confusion. She didn't know what Ma Peipei's plan was for tomorrow. Seeing this, Yun Gaofei whispered to her about the situation.

After hearing this, Yun Xiaoyun was moved by Ma Peipei's thoughts. There was envy and a hint of loss in her eyes. When would she be able to wait for this day?

However, she didn't show it, but just stepped forward and wished him well: "Brother Peipei, I wish you a successful proposal tomorrow."

"Thank you, Xiaoyun. I've been out for a long time. If I don't go back, Xiaoxiu will be worried. I'll go back first. You all have to come tomorrow." Ma Peipei looked at them, touched his head and said with a smile.

"Go back quickly." Zhou Yi looked at Ma Peipei and felt happy for them from the bottom of his heart.

After Ma Peipei went back, Zhou Yi gestured to Yun Gaofei to go upstairs to wash up first, and she pulled Yun Xiaoyun to sit down on the terrace garden.

"Sister-in-law, I'm really happy for Brother Peipei and Sister Xiaoxiu." Yun Xiaoyun said with a smile, but Zhou Yi still saw the hint of loss in her eyes.

"Yes, they finally achieved their goal, and I am happy for them." Zhou Yi said while making flower tea.

Yun Xiaoyun looked at the plants in the garden swaying in the cold wind, feeling a little dazed, and the sadness in her heart became more obvious.

"Sister-in-law, all lovers in the world can finally get married, right?" Yun Xiaoyun asked softly with red eyes.

"Xiaoyun, are you okay?" Zhou Yi looked at Yun Xiaoyun in front of him and became even more worried.

But Zhou Yi didn't know how to ask. After all, the situation of the Qin family was very complicated now, and the matter between Yun Xiaoyun and Qin Bei would definitely not have any results in the short term.

"Sister-in-law, I'm fine." Yun Xiaoyun lowered her head.

Zhou Yi didn't know how to ask, and Yun Xiaoyun didn't know how to talk about it, and was even embarrassed to mention it.

"Xiaoyun, we are a family. Don't hide anything from me." Zhou Yi looked at Yun Xiaoyun closely. "Did something happen at the dinner that day?"

Zhou Yi decided to ask anyway. Looking at the thin Yun Xiaoyun, she was still worried.

"Sister-in-law~" Yun Xiaoyun's eyes gradually turned red.

Zhou Yi's expression made him even more certain that something had happened that day. No wonder Qin Bei's behavior was so strange that morning.

"Xiao Yun, if you believe me, just tell me." Zhou Yi said.

In the end, Yun Xiaoyun told Zhou Yi what happened that night.
