Xiao Bo couldn't help but curl his lips: "Just like your uncle? Your uncle seems to be like this too. I remember your aunt rarely smiled and looked particularly indifferent."
Yun Xu protested, "Jingjing isn't cold at all. After spending more time with her, I realized she's the typical person with a cold exterior but a warm heart. As for my uncle, well, he's pretty much the same as Jiyun."
The two couldn't help but laugh. Xiao Bo rubbed his chin, "Now that I think about it, Zhou Jiyun is quite wonderful and lucky. It's not easy to meet someone in this world who is wholeheartedly devoted to you and firmly chooses you."
Yun Xu's gossip radar went online: "What's going on? Are you hurt by love?"
"It's not that I have low emotional intelligence, I just speak my mind." Xiao Bo smiled and said, "It's just a colleague. He got injured and his girlfriend broke up with him right after. It's because our line of work is too dangerous."
"You're police officers, not heroes," Yun Xu said softly. "But you do need to be careful in your daily work. Every child is a treasure. They also have practical considerations for doing this. It's not easy to be a military or police wife these days."
"You're better off. At least we get to see each other often. With people like Zhao, we rarely get to see each other. It's the same with my dad. As far as I can remember, it was always my mom who was busy."
"If a girl is unlucky and has a difficult mother-in-law, she'll have to shoulder all the burdens of the household alone," Yun Xu said, shaking his head. "Sometimes, affection isn't enough to sustain a person's independence, so it's understandable that they would do this."
Xiao Bo sighed, "I know it's really hard to find a partner in our line of work. But that's how the world works. Some jobs always need people to do them. If you don't do it and I don't do it, society will be paralyzed if that day comes."
Yun Xu: "So you should find someone who can accept everything about you."
"Just like Zhao Ge's girlfriend?" Xiao Bo smiled. "Looking at it this way, Zhao Ge is really lucky. Where did he meet this girl?"
"She's Jingjing's only best friend. He's purely benefiting from Jingjing's influence," Yunxu complained with genuine emotion, "You don't know how much Zhu Li's family likes Zhao. We went to visit together, but they just fell for Zhao."
"I guess it's because Ah Zhao is busy, and Zhu Li is busy too. Her family's Chinese medicine clinic is still waiting for her to inherit and carry forward. It's a great thing for two busy people to get together and do their own things."
Xiao Bo was amused: "I think they have a good relationship."
"That's great," Yun Xu said with a smile, "A Zhao's vacation isn't long. From what I heard from him, he wants to set a date for the wedding before his vacation ends."
"Actually, if I think about it, Zhu Li could definitely go work in the military hospital. That way, she and A Zhao wouldn't have to be separated. But it all depends on Zhu Li's own wishes."
"You can't let them separate right after getting married, right? That would be too inhumane."
Xiao Bo: "That's their own business. I'm so envious. I never thought about it this way before, but when I saw Brother Zhao and Zhou Jiyun today, I suddenly envied them from the bottom of my heart."
Yun Xu halfheartedly comforted him, "It's fate. We'll always meet. Tell me what kind of person you like? I'll help you find one."
Xiao Bo raised his eyebrows: "Do you still know the girl?"
Yun Xu said calmly, "I don't really know many of them, but Jingjing has a lot of classmates. They all study art, and they're all very pretty. I heard one of them is in the capital."
"I heard them on the phone last time, planning to get together after the New Year. Do you want to come?"
Xiao Bo: "Classmate Jingjing, are you about the same age as her? I'm already 28 years old during the Chinese New Year, so I feel a little embarrassed."
Yun Xu was overjoyed. "Zhou Jiyun is two years older than you. He has nothing to be embarrassed about. It's so delicious to eat young grass. I'll ask Jingjing for her opinion when the time comes. We can all get together and have some fun. I heard that girl is very lively and outgoing and likes to be lively."
"Someone as serious and formal as you is suitable for this."
Xiao Bo's shameful heart was moved: "Okay, then you ask for me. I'm not just looking for a way out, I just want to find a chance to go out and relax. It's true that every time the New Year comes, I can't stop hearing them. They always find all kinds of reasons to urge me to get married."
Yun Xu: "Okay, leave it to me."
Xiao Bo took Yun Xu to the old house and helped deliver all kinds of New Year's goods. Only then did he say goodbye and leave. Yun Lan looked at Zhou Jiyun's expression and asked, "How do you feel?"
Zhou Jiyun had already been comforted: "I'm just grateful for his help, I don't feel anything else."
Yun Lan raised an eyebrow. "That's good. It was just a joke from the elders. Since Jingjing is with you, you two should just live happily together. Don't let outsiders ruin your relationship."
Zhou Jiyun was a little surprised. Although Yun Lan didn't say it, he knew that his father-in-law had some grudges against him. It wasn't directed at him personally, but no matter who became his son-in-law, Yun Lan would probably be unhappy.
Why is Yunlan still comforting him now?
The surprise in Zhou Jiyun's eyes was too obvious, and Yun Lan could certainly see it: "I'm not targeting you, I just think Jingjing is getting married too early. But since you're already together, just live your life to the fullest."
"These are more important than anything else."
Zhou Jiyun suddenly revealed a sincere smile: "Thank you, Dad, I understand."
Yun Lan curled his lips: "Even though I say that, I still don't like you. Alas, it's just fate. My daughter has a pure heart, how could she meet someone like you?"
"That's our fate," Xie Jing heard this when she came over to pour tea. She added, "Fate is wonderful. I think Jiyun is very good. He has been the best to me over the years."
"Although it may sound a bit cold to say this, because you have always cared about me all these years, but unfortunately, I have never received your friendship, and you have never appeared in my life."
"I understand," Yun Lan patted Xie Jing's shoulder. "If you didn't receive it, it's the same as if it never happened. Your mother and I were absent from your life for such a long time. It's a great regret after all."
"Really? You're protecting him so much, how could I eat him? You just treat him as a little white rabbit." At the end, Yun Lan complained unhappily.
He felt a little annoyed when he saw Zhou Jiyun's smiling face. Perhaps it was because they had the same nature that they inevitably repelled each other.
"Of course he's not a little white rabbit," Xie Jing took the tea Zhou Jiyun handed her. "Even if he's not a little white rabbit, I will protect him wholeheartedly, just like he protects me."
"Who says powerful people don't need protection?"
Yun Lan felt sour after hearing Xie Jing's words, but at the same time, he felt a little jealous: "Okay, I won't bother you anymore. I'll go find your mother. Am I just asking for trouble?"
