Zheng Zecheng did not answer immediately, but walked to the window, turned his back to the two of them, and put his hands behind his back.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became depressing.
Zheng Zeqian quietly nudged Song Shishi and signaled with his eyes that she should speak up and help him out.
He is not afraid of anyone except his eldest brother.
Zheng Zecheng loves Song Shishi the most, so Zheng Zeqian wanted to ask Song Shishi to be his lobbyist.
Song Shishi glared at him, resenting this unreliable uncle in her heart.
If you want to pursue a girl, just do it seriously. Don't make sure you do it in a different way from others.
Now, I was caught red-handed by my uncle.
Even though she complained, Song Shishi still couldn't bear to see him being scolded by his uncle, so she could only bite the bullet and say:
...
...
"Uncle, we are all so happy today. How about we talk about something happy?"
Zheng Zecheng turned around, glanced at the two men's faces, and suddenly sneered:
"Happy things? Zeqian, how can you and that Miss Qiao be so tug-of-war in public?"
Zheng Zeqian took a deep breath.
"Brother, I won't hide it from you. I am pursuing her. From the first moment I saw her, I was determined to be with her."
Zheng Zecheng's brows knitted into a knot, and he raised his voice and asked, "Do you understand him?
Do you know her family background and how she behaves?
Although our Zheng family is not a famous family, we cannot let such rumors spread."
Zheng Zeqian explained eagerly: "Just because you don't understand now doesn't mean you won't understand in the future. I know what you are worried about, but I am serious this time."
"Are you serious? Even if you are serious, the girl may not be willing to follow you."
Zheng Zecheng spoke directly to Zheng Zeqian and was not afraid of criticizing him.
"Don't think I can't see that the way you acted today was just like forcing someone to have sex with you."
Zheng Zeqian opened his mouth and held it in for a long time before speaking.
"So if you want to pursue a girl you like, don't you have to be thick-skinned and use more tricks?
Otherwise, if my future wife runs away with someone else, you will worry that I will never get married in this life."
Seeing that Zheng Zecheng was about to lose his temper because of Zheng Zeqian's attitude, Song Shishi went over and massaged Zheng Zecheng's shoulders as he sat down.
"Uncle, I believe that my uncle must have acted on impulse today. He will be more careful in the future."
After saying that, Song Shishi blinked at Zheng Zeqian.
"Isn't that right, uncle?"
Zheng Zeqian quickly responded and nodded.
"Yes, yes, I made a mistake today."
After hearing this, Zheng Zecheng did not pursue the matter further.
"Today, for Shishi's sake, I won't bother with you. But next time I catch you doing such wanton things to a lesbian, watch out for your skin!"
Zheng Zecheng had something else to do in the afternoon, so he said hello to Zheng Peilan and told Zheng Zeqian to send his aunt and Xiaoye back later before leaving.
As soon as Zheng Zecheng left, Zheng Zeqian returned to his nonchalant self.
Song Shishi rolled her eyes at him and said, "Uncle, be more careful next time. If you really want to be with Yan Xin, then behave yourself."
As the two were talking, Meng Xunzhou and Zheng Yebai came over.
Meng Xunzhou looked at Song Shishi, his eyes full of concern: "Are you okay?"
Song Shishi smiled and shook her head: "It's okay, it's just that my younger uncle was scolded by my older uncle."
Zheng Yebai came over curiously: "Uncle, what trouble have you gotten yourself into again?"
Zheng Zeqian smiled awkwardly: "Don't ask too many questions, kid. Come on, didn't Xunzhou say he wanted to tell you about the army? Let's go to the yard and talk."
Several people sat together in the yard, and Meng Xunzhou vividly described the thrilling battle in which the troops won with fewer troops.
He only gave a general idea, and Meng Xunzhou omitted all the details.
Zheng Yebai's eyes widened and his mouth opened wide, and he exclaimed from time to time: "Brother-in-law, you are so amazing!"
Just as Meng Xunzhou was speaking excitedly and Zheng Yebai was listening fascinatedly, Xu Li rushed into the courtyard in a hurry.
Xu Li was sweating profusely and looked anxious.
"Sister Shishi, something bad has happened! My master has been taken away!" Xu Li said breathlessly.
Zheng Zeqian stood up suddenly, and the chair fell over with a loud "clang".
"What did you say? Who took him away? Why?"
Xu Li turned pale with fear and stammered, "I...I don't know either. We were just perming a customer's hair when a few people suddenly broke into the store and took Sister Yan Xin away without saying anything."
Zheng Zeqian's eyes narrowed, he grabbed Xu Li's shoulders, his voice trembling because of the intersection.
"Which direction did they go?"
Xu Li was so frightened by his appearance that tears welled up in her eyes and she trembled and couldn't speak for a long time.
Zheng Zeqian's eyes became more and more impatient.
"Hurry up and tell me!"
"They just...went east. They were driving and I couldn't catch up. I had no choice but to come back and report."
Xu Li tried hard to calm herself down before she could utter a complete sentence.
"What kind of car did they drive? Did you take note of the license plate number?"
Meng Xunzhou asked calmly.
Xu Li shook her head and said, "No, I was too panicked at the time and didn't think to remember these things. It's just that the car they drove was very similar to... the car that Brother Meng drove."
As soon as Xu Li finished speaking, Zheng Zeqian let go of her, turned around and rushed to the door.
Song Shishi originally wanted to chase after him, but was pulled back by Meng Xunzhou.
"I'll go, you stay at home with mom and the others, we'll see what happens."
Song Shishi looked at him and nodded, "Then you should be careful."
Meng Xunzhou touched Song Shishi's head, turned around and quickly chased Zheng Zeqian.
Meng Xunzhou caught up with Zheng Zeqian, "Don't panic, I'll drive, let's go to Miss Qiao's store first, maybe we can find some clues."
All they knew now was that Qiao Yanxin was taken into a car and headed east.
With Xu Li's speed, the other person's car would have gone away without her knowing where it was.
The two rushed to Qiao Yanxin's shop, only to see the door half-open and the inside in a mess.
Hair curling tools were scattered all over the floor, and the mirror on the wall had several cracks.
It was obvious that Qiao Yanxin had had an argument with that group of people at that time.
Seeing this, Zheng Zeqian's eyes turned red and his fists clenched so hard that they made a clattering sound.
Meng Xunzhou calmly scanned everything in the store.
"In this world, there are all kinds of people. That girl looks gentle, capable, and pretty, but how come she is accused of seducing someone else's husband? It's really a sin."
"Aunt, that's not what you said. Maybe she relies on this to attract business?"
"What you said is true. During the time I spent with that girl, she had good character and didn't seem like that kind of person."
"What's impossible? Last time, I saw Zhang Guihua's man wandering around the store, and his eyes were almost glued to Miss Qiao. Those people today seemed familiar to me, and they seemed to be Zhang Guihua's family members."
When Zheng Zeqian and Meng Xunzhou were at a loss, the voices of two women suddenly came from outside the door.
And the person being talked about should be Qiao Yanxin.
