Chapter 106: The Debt of the Past
No! Doesn't Zhou Xingshi love Chen You very much? How could he get into a love debt?
It changed so quickly?
Xia Xian looked a little unhappy.
As soon as Quan Ruifeng saw Xia Xian's expression, he knew she had misunderstood, and he quickly explained.
"It's not what you think. He didn't initiate the incident. It's a long story."
"Two years ago, when we were on duty together, we met a girl who was about 15 or 16 years old. She had a conflict with her family and thought her parents didn't love her but only her brother, so they sent her to the countryside. But she was so young and had to work in the countryside, and she couldn't stand it. She didn't dare to go to the unfamiliar countryside and thought it would be better to die, so she tried to commit suicide in the middle of the night by jumping into the river."
"But she didn't jump. She was stopped by a passerby and then ran to the police station to find us. Zhou Xingshi and I went to persuade her, but we could save her temporarily, not forever. One of her and her brother must go to the countryside, unless both of them have jobs."
"Zhou Xingshi had just started working at that time and was very enthusiastic. No one could persuade him. He didn't want to see a little girl commit suicide, so he acted like a good person and secretly found a factory to let her work as a temporary worker. He hid for a while."
"But she was still young and not steady enough. She made a mistake at work, and the factory didn't need any more people, so they let her go. She lost her job and had to go to the countryside, so she ended up going there anyway."
"But a few days ago, her family found her a job and tried to get her transferred back from the countryside. The first thing she did when she came back was to look for Zhou Xingshi and pester him, saying that he was always in her heart and that she worked hard to transfer back from the countryside because she was thinking about him."
"It's no use for Zhou Xingshi to refuse. I'm afraid she'll come over and ruin our engagement today."
Quan Ruifeng told everything he knew, but there were many flaws in it, and Xia Xian did not let it go.
"I have a few questions. First, does Chen You know about this? Does he know that he found a job for that girl, and now that she's back, she's pestering Zhou Xingshi again?"
"Second, how did she get back from the countryside? Was it really because of her family's job and connections? Did Zhou Xingshi contribute to this?"
"Third, after she went to the countryside, did Zhou Xingshi keep in touch with her? Did the two of them write letters or something?"
Xia Xian asked a series of questions, directly questioning Quan Ruifeng as if he were the person involved, because she was thinking from Shen You's perspective. If it were her, she might really be angry.
"Don't be angry first. I don't know that clearly, but I am sure that after he went to the countryside, Zhou Xingshi had no contact with her, not even a single letter."
"Also, Zhou Xingshi helped her find a temporary job. Shen You knew about this. At that time, I couldn't persuade him, so I told Shen You and let Shen You persuade him. However, Zhou Xingshi insisted at that time, and Shen You didn't care, so he agreed."
"The factory she went to still had Aunt Shen You as the workshop director, and it was through Aunt Shen You that she found out that there was a shortage of temporary workers there."
As for whether the girl's transfer back had anything to do with Zhou Xingshi, he thought not, after all, the two had never been in contact in the past two years.
“But now Shen You probably doesn’t know that she’s back. Even if she tells Shen You, Shen You probably won’t have any impression of her.”
After all, he was just an insignificant person. Two years later, Shen You had to dig deep into his memory before he could remember him.
Hearing Quan Ruifeng say this, Xia Xian's expression eased, it was okay as long as she didn't hide it from Shen You, and Zhou Xingshi didn't keep in touch with the girl, which meant that he didn't have any special thoughts about her.
"Then when does he plan to tell Chen You about this matter? If he hides it from Chen You, Chen You will be unhappy, right?"
“Look, he didn’t come today and didn’t tell Chen You. I feel that Chen You is already a little unhappy. If she knew that Zhou Xingshi was hiding from a little girl, she would definitely be even angrier.”
Xia Xian expressed her guess. She believed that partners needed to be honest with each other. No matter what the matter was, it was best to discuss it and not hide anything. The more they concealed, the easier it would be to cause misunderstandings and hurt feelings.
“Zhou Xingshi will definitely tell you, but it happened so suddenly that he didn’t have time to tell you. He will probably explain it to Shen You in the evening, so don’t worry.”
"He's such a chatterbox, he can't hide anything."
Quan Ruifeng was sure of this.
"That's fine."
After all, it was a good day for her and Quan Ruifeng, and Xia Xian didn't want to discuss Zhou Xingshi and Shen You too much, so she let it go for now.
Just as Gao Shuang and the others had finished their chat and it was almost time, she called Quan Ruifeng and Xia Xian out and distributed wedding candy to everyone.
"Don't stay in the house, come out."
"Let everyone see you two, an engaged couple. Don't be shy, little one. Just get used to it."
Gao Shuang was shouting outside.
The term "young partner" is indeed not as nice as "young couple". Quan Ruifeng smiled and decided to work hard to change the term "young partner" to "young couple" and marry Xia Xian!
But it was too early to talk about this now, so he pulled Xia Xian out and distributed candies to the neighbors in a lively manner.
Because of what happened with Zhou Xingshi, Quan Ruifeng even forgot to tell Xia Xian that he met the little girl brought by Chu Sheng before coming here, and he even spoke wildly and slandered Xia Xian.
However, on such a happy day, we can talk about this unlucky thing later.
Without the sabotage of Chu Sheng and Chu Nannan, Quan Ruifeng and Xia Xian's engagement went smoothly.
After the meeting, Xia Xian and Quan Ruifeng went home to have lunch, and Chen You and her aunt naturally went with them.
Grandma Quan happily held Xia Xian's hand tightly.
"Ruifeng finally has a partner, and grandma is relieved. Grandma is old, and she wants to see him get married before she dies, but he won't even find a partner, and he doesn't want to go on blind dates. No matter how I ask him to, it doesn't make sense. Grandma thought she would never have the chance to see what kind of wife Ruifeng would find in this lifetime!"
"Now, grandma can not only see what his wife looks like, but she may even be able to see her great-grandson!"
She urged people to get married and have children with a smile. Perhaps urging people to get married and have children is something that everyone, whether they have a partner or not, must go through.
Xia Xian smiled, not quite sure how to answer. She had no intention of getting married and having children in the short term. Marriage was still an option, but she would have to wait until she graduated from college before considering having children.
She opened her lips and was about to evade the question, but Quan Ruifeng spoke first and picked up some food for grandma.
"Grandma, you are in good health and will live a long life. If you want to cherish your grandson, you will have the opportunity at any time. Now you must cherish me as your grandson first."
"Why, are you trying to favor one over the other? I don't agree with that. I'd rather not have a baby."
He humorously interrupted the conversation between Grandma Quan and Xia Xian, causing Grandma Quan to hit him.
"What nonsense are you talking about? When did grandma stop loving you? You must have a baby! You young people make the decision. Grandma is old and doesn't care about so many things anymore."
Grandma Quan knew that Quan Ruifeng told her not to talk nonsense, so she shut up angrily. If she wanted to be a long-lived old lady, the first thing was not to meddle in other people's business. She understood that.
Xia Xian looked at Quan Ruifeng as if she was saved.
Points for knowing how to handle these little conflicts!
