Chapter 51 "What do you think of my sister?"
Old Master Song twitched his lips and said, "So you are planning to turn the world upside down?"
Above Governor Wei is Gong Sanye, the Inspector of Five Provinces. The governors of the provinces below all follow his lead, so Old Master Song also has to give him some face.
They are from the Zhi faction.
President Xue is backed by the Feng faction.
No one knew when Wei Liangchen hooked up with her, and Mr. Gong Sanye was a little unhappy.
Mr. Song spoke up for his grandson, but he was also annoyed that he acted first and then reported to the emperor.
Wei Liangchen smiled and said, "On your birthday, I will give you another great gift."
"What do you want to do now?" Old Master Song gave a veiled warning.
"Nothing to do, I've already mentioned the gift, grandpa will definitely like it."
Mr. Song's tone softened. "Giving me a grandson's wife is the best gift for an old man like me."
"Dad, I heard that the cruise ship that Chief Ling's daughter, Miss Ling, is taking will arrive tomorrow. She and Liangchen are childhood sweethearts. I'll ask Liangchen to pick her up."
Wei Liangchen said, "They have relatives and friends, so I don't need to answer them."
"Liangchen." Mrs. Wei pulled his sleeve and winked at him fiercely.
Everyone present understood that the Ling family was prominent, and that the Wei family had chosen the Ning Du military family because of the previous situation. If they married into the Ling family, it would be like planting another big tree for the family, and everyone would be happy.
This is completely over.
Jin Ye glanced at Wei Liangchen and saw that he lowered his eyes, his thick eyelashes covering the expression in his eyes, and he did not respond to Mrs. Wei.
The atmosphere was a little awkward. Mrs. Wei smiled and said, "Okay, let's go eat first. Dad, I'll help you to your seat."
Now Mrs. Wei treated Zhou Siwei as half a family member and invited him to eat together.
Zhou Siwei said: "I wanted to ask Xiaojin out for dinner."
I didn't expect to see Mr. Song here.
Old Master Song said to the young man, "Young people, there is no need to rush for your date. Just eat here. Today, I am just in time to talk to you young people."
Zhou Siwei was disrespectful, he looked at Jin Ye and said with a smile: "Then let's go out for dinner tonight."
How else could Jin Ye answer? He could only nod slightly.
She had a question in her mind and wanted to clarify it.
At this time, Governor Wei and Wei Yanting also returned from the government office and said that all the students had been released today.
"Xiao Jin was right. Almost all the shops are closed." Governor Wei glanced at Jin Ye with admiration.
Mr. Song said "Oh?" with some ambiguity, "The little girl has such insight."
I don’t know if it was Jin Ye’s illusion, but when his eyes looked over and lingered on her face, there seemed to be a flash of surprise.
But soon he was helped to his seat by the governor himself.
During the dinner, Mr. Song asked Zhou Siwei about water transportation, and asked Wei Yanting about several things in North City. It was just a casual chat, and the atmosphere was much more relaxed.
Zhou Siwei sat next to Jin Ye, asking her in a low voice what she liked to eat from time to time, and picking up food for her.
But after the meal, Jinye didn't know what he had eaten.
At night, Zhou Siwei came to pick her up. "I was a little late today because of something. Have you eaten?"
Jin Ye said she had eaten, and he invited her to go to a newly opened dance hall in Haicheng, and she did not refuse.
Nowadays, young people like to go to dance halls when they are in love, to dance, drink, and play games. It was Jinye’s first time to go to a dance hall in Haicheng, and she felt the unique charm of Shanghai at night.
"This is our second date." Zhou Siwei said with a smile after getting off the car.
Jin Ye nodded awkwardly, feeling a little worried when thinking about the answer he would have to give him next.
At this time, in the private room on the second floor,
Qi Yuanzheng came out to smoke, and suddenly saw Jin Ye and Zhou Siwei walking into the dance hall. He smiled and said, "It's very lively tonight."
"What a hustle and bustle." The person who spoke was Ling Shaomin. She came with her elder brother to pick up her sister. Her elder brother had a date with the marshal tonight, so she had to come along.
Following Qi Yuan's gaze, she saw Jin Ye at a glance and immediately pouted, "What a narrow road for enemies to cross."
"I didn't do anything to bother you." Qi Yuan said with a smile, "Why do you act like you have a grudge against me?"
"It's just that there is a grudge." Ling Shaomin didn't want to see Jin Ye. She originally wanted to talk to Qi Yuan, but now she didn't want to talk anymore and turned back to the box.
Qi Yuan puffed out smoke for a while before going in.
Wei Liangchen, Ling Yuanzhou, Qi Bangban, and French Concession Police Chief Zhong Huayang were drinking and chatting.
Ling Yuanzhou was still feeling a little uncomfortable after being punched by Wei Liangchen due to the cheongsam incident last time.
But Xuewei was coming back soon, and his mother knew he was in Haicheng, so she advised him to take the initiative to reconcile, as they would inevitably meet in the future, so Ling Yuanzhou had no choice but to ask him out.
It just so happened that I hadn't seen Inspector Zhong for a long time, so we made an appointment to meet.
Inspector Zhong smiled and said, "I haven't seen Xuewei for three years. If I can spare some time tomorrow, I'll go with you to pick her up."
They all used to live in Suzhou and grew up together.
Wei Liangchen just drank and didn't say anything.
Inspector Zhong looked at him and said, "I heard that Xuewei was driven away by you, right, young commander?"
"Nonsense, her feet are on her own legs, she can walk whenever she wants." Wei Liangchen said.
"Then why don't you pursue her?" Inspector Zhong said with some regret, "I withdrew from the relationship to help you two. We all thought you would be together, but you broke up. If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have done anything."
Wei Liangchen smiled, "You said it as if it were true."
Ling Yuanzhou was surprised, "Oh? Hua Yang liked my sister? How come I didn't know?"
Inspector Zhong laughed, half true and half false, "It's true, but I'm getting married soon, so there's no chance. We still have good times, do you two want to rekindle your past relationship? I heard Xuewei is still single."
"Get lost."
"Hey, you're still shy at this age? You don't have a girlfriend either. I heard that you were dating the daughter of General Ning before, but now she's gone. How can you marry her?"
Ling Yuanzhou glanced at Wei Liangchen and asked, "What do you think of my sister?"
Ling Shaomin walked in, "Humph, he has his own ideas, but my sister may not agree."
Ling Shaomin was angry about the cheongsam incident last time.
Ling Yuanzhou looked at her pouting and asked, "Who has annoyed you again?"
Qi Yuan, who came in later, answered for her, "She is the young marshal's sister."
Wei Liangchen raised his head and asked, "My sister?"
"Yes, your third sister, I saw her just now, with Zhou San, but I'm curious, why does sister Shaomin dislike sister Jinye so much..."
Before he could finish his words, Wei Liangchen had already stood up and walked out.
Jin Ye and Zhou Siwei sat in a booth next to the lobby on the first floor. It was a good location facing the stage. The area was full of people but not noisy. Waiters were walking around and the lights were hazy and bright.
"What would you like to drink?" Zhou Siwei asked.
Just then a waiter brought champagne. Jin Ye ordered a glass, Zhou Siwei ordered wine, and ordered a few snacks. He also tipped the waiter politely.
Jin Ye looked at him. He was wearing a grey suit, and he looked handsome, elegant, and gentle, like an older brother.
Zhou Siwei turned around and looked at her. She was wearing a blue dress, light makeup, curled eyelashes, and a pair of watery eyes that were like inlaid black pearls. Her hair was slightly curled at the ends, and there was only a hairpin on her head, which sparkled under the light.
It's so beautiful that you can't take your eyes off it.
His eyes darkened and he smiled, "I'm late tonight because I received a doctor friend from Hong Kong Island this afternoon. I asked him to help me with your aunt's matter. He is a classmate of the vice president of Maria Hospital and he said that an outstanding professor from the UK will come here in October."
Jin Ye's heart skipped a beat. "October?"
Of course, there is still time to hold a wedding.
She had already decided to reject him, but at this moment, Jin Ye couldn't help but hesitate.
Objectively speaking, accepting him is the best choice.
Especially since Mrs. Wei might have doubted her relationship with Wei Liangchen, marrying him would save her from disaster.
And Ling Xuewei was coming back soon, so why was she still staying with Wei Liangchen?
"Don't worry." Zhou Siwei said, "My promise is always valid. If you find someone suitable in the future, I will allow you to be free."
Jin Ye asked the question that he had been thinking about all night: "I don't understand why you are so nice to me?"
Zhou Siwei placed his hands on the table, holding the cup, as if thinking, "It's normal for you to be confused. In fact, I want to marry you. In addition to having a good impression of you, there is indeed another reason."
