Zhu Li was puzzled: "You didn't tell Chen Yaozhi about this when you met her at the airport that year ago? What if she regretted doing that to you? After all, she did lose a lot of face because of Zhou Jiwen."
Xie Jing lowered her eyes: "I don't care whether she regrets it or not. A gentleman judges actions, not intentions. Because I didn't remind Chen Yaozhi, even if I did have good intentions, but I didn't take action, so there's no need to say these things, and even saying them would seem hypocritical."
“If you only look at intentions and not actions, then everyone in this world is a good person, but it’s the actions that matter.”
Zhu Li was silent for a few breaths: "Jingjing, you are too pure."
Xie Jing raised an eyebrow, then laughed: "I just strive to do everything with a clear conscience. I didn't remind Chen Yaozhi. I don't feel that I owe her anything. Similarly, I don't need her to treat me differently."
"She was rude to me before, but I got back at her at the engagement party. Now we're even now."
Zhu Li thought about it and shook his head: "It's impossible to even things out. I don't like Chen Yaozhi anyway."
"Then let's not talk about her," Xie Jing held Zhu Li's hand. "I never thought that in just two months, you'd transformed from my good friend to my sister-in-law."
Zhu Li also found it incredible: "I never thought of it, but if you really calculate it carefully, you Yun family are really super efficient. Look, Zhao and I got engaged within a month of knowing each other."
"You and Jiyun decided to get married after only meeting twice. As for Yunxu... his efficiency must be pretty good, Junjun, don't you think?" Zhu Li said as she nudged Jin Jun's shoulder, obviously curious about the progress of Yunxu and Jin Jun.
Xie Jing and Qi Yao were also curious. All three of them looked at Jin Jun. Jin Jun tried to hold on: "He asked me for my WeChat yesterday and asked about my upcoming work arrangements."
"Oh, not bad," Xie Jing was about to speak when her phone rang. She looked over and saw Wang Cancan outside the room. Xie Jing hurried over to open the door, and as expected, Wang Cancan gave her a big bear hug.
After hugging her for two seconds, she walked briskly inside: "Ari, you look so beautiful today! Like a fairy."
Zhu Li was in a very good mood after being flattered by Wang Cancan. She grabbed a side of nuts and stuffed them into Wang Cancan's palm: "You are beautiful too. Did your parents send you here?"
"No way. Brother Xiao went to pick me up. My dad had to go to work, so he didn't have time. My mom had a party with her group of little sisters today." Wang Cancan smiled and told the story of Xiao Bo very frankly.
Zhu Li's ears twitched. "You and Xiao Bo... when did you two become so familiar with each other? The distance between the compound and your home isn't that close, right? Xiao Bo is so enthusiastic?"
Wang Cancan didn't take it seriously: "You're getting engaged, so you think everyone you see is having an affair. Can't it be that Brother Xiao is worried about me, a girl traveling alone, so he's taking extra care of me?"
Zhu Li didn't care about the gossip Wang Cancan anymore. "I haven't heard Ah Zhao say that Xiao Bo is so enthusiastic, but you have a cheerful and outgoing personality. You can get along well with a taciturn person like Xiao Bo."
Wang Cancan slowly stopped eating nuts and said, "We do get along in terms of personality. He's not a bad person and he's caring. He's a police officer and my dad's subordinate, so there's no need to worry about him misbehaving in the future..."
Xie Jing was curious: "Then what?"
"Nothing more," Wang Cancan said proudly, "I'm simply stating the facts. Why should I overthink it so much? If a man really wants to pursue you, he'll come to you on his own. You don't need to spend so much time guessing."
"Look at your Mr. Zhou, doesn't he always get all the good stuff delivered to you?"
Xie Jing was helpless: "Why did the topic come back to me?"
Wang Cancan: "Who told you to gossip about me? I haven't thought about falling in love yet. Although, I really like Xiao Bo's job. Let me tell you, after getting married, when your husband is not at home and he brings money home every month, it's really great."
"Anyway, I think my mom is having a pretty good time."
Xie Jing hit the nail on the head: "That's because your grandparents and your maternal grandparents all helped you, right? If your in-laws and your own family were unreasonable, would you still be able to say such things?"
Wang Cancan thought about it and said, "That's right, so it depends on the other person's family situation."
"Buy a pig and look at the pen," Xie Jing said softly. Wang Cancan was so amused that his eyes narrowed: "Xiao Bo is a pig?"
Xie Jing: "It's just an analogy."
She glanced at Jin Jun as she spoke, hinting, "Whether it's dating or getting married, it's better to be cautious. Before dating, you must consider whether you can get married. Only when you are sure that you may get married, then start a relationship."
"Because this way men will be more cautious and won't be so casual. Of course, if you're a non-marriage advocate, just pretend I never said anything like this."
Wang Cancan moved closer: "Can you tell me more?"
Xie Jing didn't mind saying a little more: "After confirming that the boy has good character, then observe his work ability and his family. First of all, work ability. What should be possessed at a certain age."
"For example, when he's 25, he should have been working for two or three years. He's not required to own a house at this point, but he should at least have a car."
"If he doesn't have a car, then look at his savings to see if he has over 100,000 yuan. Any man who has some working ability and isn't used to spending lavishly should have that much in savings."
"When he's 30, you should observe his career. Whether he's been promoted to a junior leader at work, and whether he has employees under him, are all areas of observation."
"I'm being realistic, but if a man doesn't talk about money with you, and gets unhappy when you talk about money, you shouldn't date him. Life is reality, not about romance."
Wang Cancan: "I can't tell. I thought you and Mr. Zhou were always in love. I didn't expect your thoughts to be so... down-to-earth."
"I'm not a fairy floating in the sky," Xie Jing was amused by her. "I grew up in the Xie family. People who are not loved always mature early. I knew from a young age that I had to fight for my own interests. Liu Limin also tried to PUA me before, but I just didn't fall for it."
"When you see the benefits first, you won't be so easily deceived." Xie Jing said softly, "But the topic has gone a bit off topic. After you've confirmed that a boy is good, don't give him 100% of your heart at this time."
"You should investigate his family and see if it's harmonious, if the family traditions are upright, and if the elders are sensible. These are extremely important. Take Zhao Ge and A Li for example."
Zhu Li glanced at Jin Jun inconspicuously and said with a smile, "Are you using me as an example now?"
