Whether it was their fight or his later interactions with Zhou Yunting, Da Wa felt that he was no ordinary man.
If he is wholeheartedly good to his sister, that would be the best thing. But if he has any ulterior motives, then it will be their little Duo who gets hurt.
Zhao Qinglan, the mother, seemed to have the most peaceful attitude, but she subtly and quietly learned about Zhou Yunting's situation.
Some of the information came from her daughters, while others came from her smiling conversations with Zhou Yunting.
By the time Zhou Yunting reluctantly left the provincial capital and returned to Beijing, Zhao Qinglan had gained a certain understanding of him.
The fact that I've never been in a relationship before is a big plus.
In terms of personal qualities, apart from being much older than Xiaoduo, he is otherwise quite good, with good looks, height, and character.
If you have the financial means and already own a successful company, then you don't need to worry about money.
Many couples who initially had a harmonious relationship eventually had their feelings worn away by the mundane daily grind of life.
There are also family-related issues. As an only child, there are no brothers, sisters-in-law, or other female relatives who may cause disputes and conflicts.
The father is an official, and his personality is currently unknown. The mother has a good impression of Xiaoduo, who is a potential future daughter-in-law (this is because she knows that Xiaoduo helped prepare the gift), and the score in this aspect is also rated as good.
After all, marriage is not just a matter between two people, but also a union of two families.
Zhao Qinglan doesn't require a marriage between equals, but she only has one precious daughter, whom she raised like a pearl. How could she bear to let her marry into another family and suffer?
The mother-in-law is a very important factor.
Putting herself in Ji Rou's shoes, she only hoped that her daughter's future mother-in-law would do a better job than she had.
Zhao Qinglan wouldn't share these subtle considerations with a woman, but after Zhou Yunting left and Xiao Duo clearly became somewhat lonely, she confided her innermost thoughts to her daughter.
"Yun Ting is a pretty good kid. If you really like him, you two can give it a try by officially dating."
She wasn't a traditional, old-fashioned elder. Even though Zhou Yunting seemed good in every way now, it might just be appearances. Whether he was truly good or not, her daughter would have to experience and judge for herself.
Dating is the best way to get to know someone.
If any problems or inappropriateness are discovered, losses can be stopped in time.
Xiao Duo was unaware of her mother's many considerations; she was simply delighted upon hearing this one sentence.
She couldn't wait to tell Zhou Yunting that they could start dating.
But after the initial euphoria, he managed to suppress the impulse.
She should be more reserved, and at the same time give him some surprises. She should hint at it to him when they meet again.
Sanwa's middle school entrance exam results came out, and he ranked first in the city. Even though they knew he was smart, the whole family was overjoyed to hear the result.
Even though the third child became the top scorer in the high school entrance exam, he didn't take it too seriously. When asked if he needed to celebrate, he waved his hand, saying it was too much trouble.
Helpless, Zhao Qinglan respected her youngest son's opinion.
In their daily interactions with Erwa, Xiaoduo and Sanwa also revealed a lot about Erwa's daily life with Yu Xiang.
The siblings exchanged a glance, both feeling that Erwa and Yu Xiang were likely to be extraordinary in the future, but Erwa was simply too young to realize it yet.
However, they won't remind each other. They'll let their feelings slowly develop and ferment, and when they reach their most beautiful moment, that's when the romance and depth will be at their peak.
Zhao Qinglan spent a lot of time in the provincial capital for her eldest child's wedding. After her husband returned home, she and her children stayed with her mother and father-in-law for a few more days before setting off back to Guangzhou.
After all, it's not easy for the second child, Xiaoduo, to come home. Even if her husband doesn't say it, he must still hope that the family can be reunited.
When Zhao Qinglan returned to Guangzhou, she and her husband treated many people to a meal. Even though their eldest child's wedding wasn't held there, many people still remembered to give them gifts.
They would feel bad if they didn't treat everyone.
As for Zhou Yunting, after returning to Beijing, he didn't fly abroad. He stayed in Beijing waiting for Xiao Duo to go together.
Seeing how Zhao Qinglan's family treated him, Zhou Yunting would secretly rejoice after reflecting on it upon his return, and he quickly bought a house in Beijing.
He didn't tell the Zhou family about buying the house at first; even his father and grandfather didn't know.
It wasn't until he bought the house that the topic was casually brought up. Grandpa Zhou and his father were fine, even a little happy, thinking that their grandson/son had bought a house in Beijing, which might mean they would spend more time in China in the future.
However, the rest of the Zhou family felt uneasy, and even suspected that the old man had secretly given Zhou Yunting, his eldest grandson, a handout.
Because Zhou Yunting stayed for quite a while this time, and there were even rumors of him buying a house, several girls in the compound who were already interested in him couldn't help but urge their families to let them get together with him.
Some suggestions were rejected by the adults in their families, while others were approved by the adults and came to the Zhou family to express their opinions, which annoyed Zhou Yunting so much that he returned to the compound less and less.
Because of his unpleasant attitude towards anyone who mentions him, rumors have spread that he either has personal problems or is arrogant and condescending.
After hearing this so many times, even Grandpa Zhou started to worry about his grandson's marriage. However, when he brought it up again, Zhou Yunting said impatiently, "I have someone I like. Let them think what they want."
Upon hearing that his grandson had found someone he liked, the old man was both delighted and curious.
Since he hadn't officially established a relationship with Xiaoduo yet, no matter how his family asked, Zhou Yunting kept his mouth shut, only saying that she was a fellow countryman and international student he met in the United States.
Grandpa Zhou was initially worried that his grandson had dated a blond-haired, blue-eyed foreigner, but when he heard that the man was a fellow countryman, he felt much more at ease.
