Qiu Yang returned to his residence dejectedly.
Sun Yichuan was working overtime on materials for the company. He looked up and asked, "Uncle criticized you again?"
Qiu Yang sat dejectedly on the sofa. "My mom said they'll go back when I settle down with my partner."
Sun Yichuan: “…”
He could understand Qiu Yang's feeling of helplessness and guilt.
In the more than one year since they returned to China, the two of them were often introduced to potential partners by enthusiastic colleagues at work, and they could just be perfunctory with their colleagues.
But when facing their families, they always feel guilty and cannot tell them about their preferences.
He is lucky because he has an older brother and two younger sisters who are already married.
But Qiu Yang is the only son, and his parents are counting on him to carry on the family line.
In this way, Qiu Yang was arranged to go on six blind dates in a row.
Because he always said the same thing, "I don't have any feelings for her."
Later, Qiu Dahui was even angry. "You look down on this, you look down on that! Who do you think you are? You're old, you're lucky others don't pick on you!"
On Sunday morning, Yu Xiangyang came to the guesthouse to find Qiu Dahui and others, and took them to look at houses for a whole day.
In the afternoon, I took them to the restaurant again. Wen Qiuning and Cheng Jingmo had already arrived at the restaurant and were waiting there.
"Where is Nian Nian?" Yang Jie asked.
Cheng Jingmo replied: "She went abroad a few days ago and won't be back for more than two months."
Everyone had known each other for many years and started chatting after sitting down.
Wen Qiuning poured them some hot tea and asked, "Uncle and aunt, how do you like your house?"
Yang Jie replied, "We did have our eyes on two places, but Qiu Yang didn't like them."
He glared at Qiu Yang and said angrily, "I introduced him to a girl, but he didn't like her. I bought him a house, but he still didn't like her. I don't know what he could possibly like!"
Qiu Yang sat in his seat with a look of despair on his face. "Don't worry about my affairs. I know what I'm doing."
"What sense do you have?" Qiu Dahui scolded, "If you had any sense, you wouldn't have sent us all the way to Beijing at our age to worry about you!"
Qiu Yang lowered his head.
Cheng Jingmo quickly tried to smooth things over, "Qiu Yang has been abroad for so many years. He has broader horizons than us and thinks about things in the long term. Uncle and aunt, don't worry too much. He will consider his affairs."
Qiu Dahui said, "Don't foreigners get married and have children? I don't have any other requirements for Qiu Yang. I just want him to find me a daughter-in-law to carry on the Qiu family's bloodline! I don't care whether it's a boy or a girl!"
Cheng Jingmo and Yu Xiangyang: "..."
Wen Qiuning didn't understand why, so she said warmly, "Two female university graduates were assigned to our unit last year..."
Before she could finish her words, Yu Xiangyang pinched her leg under the table.
Wen Qiuning looked at Yu Xiangyang in confusion.
Yang Jie had keenly grasped the message in Wen Qiuning's words, "Female college student? Hurry up and introduce Qiu Yang and the others to her!"
Yang Jie has also reflected on this in the past two days.
Qiu Yang didn't like any of the girls they introduced to him, maybe because they had never been to college and they had nothing in common.
This female college graduate works in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and often travels abroad. Maybe Qiu Yang will be interested in her.
Yang Jie said, "Ningning, go ask them tomorrow when you get to work if they're single. If they are... you know Qiu Yang's situation well. Talk to them beforehand. If they're willing, arrange a meeting."
Yu Xiangyang kept pinching Wen Qiuning's thighs. Wen Qiuning only understood that Yu Xiangyang didn't want her to introduce a girl to Qiu Yang, but she didn't know why.
Now that Yang Jie had said so, and she had brought up the topic first, she could only agree, "Okay, Auntie, I'll ask them tomorrow."
Yu Xiangyang withdrew his hand and forced a smile. "I think blind dates are unreliable. Who would like someone after just one or two meetings? Relationships between people require long-term interactions, slowly discovering each other's strengths and weaknesses, and becoming attracted to each other. Only then can marriage be happy."
For the first time, Qiu Yang felt that Bighead Fish spoke human language.
Qiu Dahui glanced at Yu Xiangyang and said, "Let's not talk about anything else. Just look at Cheng Jingmo and Nian Nian. Didn't your parents arrange a blind date for them and then they got married after just a few meetings? Aren't they happy?"
Yu Xiangyang continued to speak up for Qiu Yang, "They're not very happy either, are they, Cheng Jingmo?"
He gave Cheng Jingmo a look.
Cheng Jingmo: "I feel very happy." You can't slander Qiu Yang's marriage just to help him!
Yu Xiangyang almost couldn't hold back his breath. He continued to argue, "Cheng Jingmo feels happy because he is tolerant and generous, and has low expectations. You all know Nian Nian's temper. She will make a big fuss over the slightest thing."
Cheng Jingmo almost couldn't pull it up in one breath.
This Yu Xiangyang is determined to discredit his marriage!
Qiu Dahui glared at Yu Xiangyang with dissatisfaction, "I can see that you, Yu Lao San, are behind this! Does Qiu Yang's dating affect you?"
Yu Xiangyang: "No impact!"
"Then why do you keep interfering and obstructing his search for a partner?" Qiu Dahui asked. "Do you often try to dissuade Qiu Yang from finding a partner?"
Yu Xiangyang complained, "No! Uncle Qiu, am I that kind of person?! I also want Qiu Yang to find a partner, but he has to find someone he likes!"
Yu Xiangyang and Cheng Jingmo had discussed the matter between Qiu Yang and Sun Yichuang two days ago, so they decided to speak up for Qiu Yang.
At the time, Cheng Jingmo said, "Niannian said that we can't understand or support it, but we can respect it. They also want to get married and have children like normal people, but they can't. Given their conditions, it's easy for them to find a woman to marry and hide their tendencies, but they don't want to ruin any woman."
Cheng Jingmo said, "Do you think Qiu Yang and the others are unwilling to come back after being abroad for so many years? They know what they will face upon returning. They may not care about the opinions of outsiders, but they must feel ashamed to face their parents. But what can they do?"
On the one hand, Yu Xiangyang sympathized with Qiu Yang, and on the other hand, he felt sad for Uncle Qiu and the others, but he could not tell Uncle Qiu and the others about Qiu Yang.
Qiu Dahui's words brought Yu Xiangyang back to his senses.
Qiu Dahui said, "I have many comrades in Beijing. Once I contact a few more, I don't believe Qiu Yang won't be interested in any of them!"
Yu Xiangyang looked at Qiu Yang with sympathy.
