Zhou Wenyi once said that because she had seen many failed cases, she felt very afraid of marriage and believed that remaining unmarried and childless would ensure her safety.
"I haven't decided yet."
Zhou Wenbo immediately objected, "Is it you who hasn't thought it through, or my sister?"
Although he doesn't want to get married, he hopes his younger sister will get married soon.
Otherwise, a girl's youth only lasts a few years, and there are various dangers associated with having children when she is older.
Faced with his future brother-in-law's angry questioning, Gu Wei calmly and frankly said, "To be honest, neither of us has thought it through yet."
Zhou Wenbo stared intently into Gu Wei's eyes, a hint of annoyance in his voice. "You two usually seem to have such a sweet relationship, how could you..."
At that moment, a buzzing vibration came from Gu Wei's pants pocket.
He made a gesture and took out his phone.
Upon seeing that it was a message from Zhou Wenyi, I immediately replied.
Zhou Wenbo spotted his sister's profile picture with his sharp eyes. He then noticed that the tenderness in Gu Wei's eyes and brows was genuine. Gu Wei seemed like an inflated balloon that had been pricked by a needle. He picked up his wine glass and gulped down two mouthfuls.
Gu Wei put down his phone and said to Zhou Wenbo, "Wenyi wants to see a newly released movie, are you going?"
Zhou Wenbo scoffed, "I'm not going to be a third wheel for you guys."
Gu Wei stood up. "Then I'll be going first. You've had enough to drink, so hurry back too."
"I understand." Zhou Wenbo said, then waved his hand, signaling him to leave quickly.
Gu Wei didn't drive because he knew he was going to drink.
After leaving the bar, I took a taxi to meet up with Zhou Wenyi.
The movie theater they chose was located upstairs in a shopping mall.
Before Gu Wei even got out of the car, he saw Zhou Wenyi, who was wearing a black and white dress and carrying a white handbag.
Despite her simple and elegant outfit, her good looks and temperament made her stand out and attract the attention of many passersby.
Zhou Wenyi clearly knew that Gu Wei would take a taxi over, and she was keeping a close eye on him.
When she saw Gu Wei, her eyes lit up immediately, and she ran a few steps forward.
Gu Wei quickly stopped her, "Be careful not to twist your ankle while standing there in your high heels."
Zhou Wenyi felt a sweet warmth in her heart upon hearing this, and obediently stopped in her tracks, quietly waiting for Gu Wei to come to her side.
"You came to watch a movie with me, did my brother say anything?"
“I invited him, but he said he didn’t want to be a third wheel.”
"He's smart to know his place."
The two looked at each other and smiled.
Then they walked arm in arm, chatting as they went.
"Did my brother grumble about his troubles to you?"
"Hmm." Gu Wei paused, not wanting to elaborate on the details, but instead changed the subject, "I think he seems to have lost weight."
Zhou Wenyi said with a mix of heartache and exasperation, "He's always had a smooth life, it's no wonder he's lost weight after encountering this situation."
Gu Wei had worked with Zhou Wenbo before and knew some of his background. Indeed, he had never suffered hardship or experienced anything too significant, and his ability to withstand pressure was not strong.
Zhou Wenyi couldn't help but continue complaining to her boyfriend, "That woman is really scheming. She secretly gave birth to the child and raised him to adulthood before bringing him home. She even taught the child to say things like wanting his parents to be together and wanting a complete family. She's also using the child to string my parents along. I'm really afraid they'll make concessions and compromises for the sake of the child. I don't want someone like that to enter the Zhou family."
Gu Wei also frowned.
Zhou Wenbo did not mention these details.
"Not only do you not want to, but your brother doesn't want to either."
Zhou Wenyi shook her head. "Alright, let's not talk about them anymore. Let's just enjoy the movie. You've been so busy with the orchard and picking garden lately that you haven't spent much time with me."
Gu Wei acquired a plot of land in the suburbs and converted it into a mountain resort and fruit picking garden, which is currently under construction.
But he wasn't busy with these things and neglecting Zhou Wenyi; it was because of his relationship with Ba Ba.
However, these truths can only remain unspoken and cannot be uttered.
The two enjoyed watching the movie and then went out for a barbecue.
After returning to Gu Wei's home, they inevitably shared another sweet and intimate moment when their love was at its peak.
Afterwards, Gu Wei had to reluctantly send his girlfriend home because he had changed his plans at the last minute and hadn't made any arrangements there.
Zhou Wenyi had stayed overnight at Gu Wei's house before.
Today I felt like I had exercised too much; my lower back and legs felt weak, and I was quite tired.
Although he didn't say it out loud, he felt a little wronged and sad inside.
She even had a strange feeling that perhaps Gu Wei was only lusting after her body and didn't love her as much as she thought.
Gu Wei doesn't have mind-reading abilities, so naturally he doesn't know these things; otherwise, he certainly wouldn't have made his girlfriend so anxious and insecure.
The next day, Zhou Wenyi had just arrived at the private restaurant and was still grumpy and in a bad mood when she received a call from her brother, Zhou Wenbo.
"I'm outside the store, come down."
Zhou Wenyi asked in a somewhat unfriendly tone, "What are you doing here?"
"I need to talk to you. Hurry up."
Zhou Wenbo hung up the phone without waiting for Zhou Wenyi to reply.
Zhou Wenyi bit her lip in anger and reluctantly got up.
Zhou Wenbo drove his supercar over and parked it outside the store, attracting frequent glances from the greeters and staff inside, who also gathered in small groups to discuss the situation.
"That's the boss's brother's car, isn't it?"
