Chapter 555: Daughter Reborn (10)
Cui Shichu thought that since she had said such unpleasant things to Wang Zhennan last time, he would no longer have any thoughts about her. However, she did not expect that this man was actually so shameless. He started to queue outside Cui Shichu's bun shop every day, and took the opportunity to say a few more words to Cui Shichu while buying buns, just like a young boy who had just fallen in love.
But Cui Shichu would not be so easily moved by him. Unless necessary, he would not say a word to him, which made Wang Zhennan very disappointed.
But he couldn't do anything despite his disappointment. Every time after buying breakfast, he had to rush to work and had no time to stay with Cui Shichu. When he got off work, Cui Shichu's store had already closed and he couldn't even see him.
After get off work, Wang Zhennan passed by a closed bun shop and sighed melancholy. He was a little dejected because he didn't see the person he wanted to see. When he returned home, he couldn't be happy.
His parents, elder brother and sister-in-law, who were also coming home from get off work, saw that he looked depressed and couldn't help asking him, "Why do you look like this? Did you encounter something unhappy at work?"
Wang Zhennan shook his head: "No."
"Then why are you so unhappy?" Queen Mother asked her youngest son who had given her a lot of worry.
Wang Zhennan wanted to say something but stopped himself. He was a little embarrassed to tell his family that he had fallen in love with a woman, but because he thought of Cui Shichu, a blush appeared on his fair face.
When the Queen Mother saw him like this, her eyes suddenly lit up. She looked at Wang Dasao in surprise, then suppressed her surprise, pretending not to notice, and continued softly, "Zhennan, tell us what's on your mind. Maybe we can help you think of a solution."
Wang Zhennan was indeed fooled by his own mother. Seeing his parents, elder brother and sister-in-law staring at him, he said with a sense of pride, "It's nothing. It's just that I like someone, but she doesn't like me. I'm a little troubled."
"What? You have someone you like?"
"Who do you like?"
"Is that person a man or a woman?"
…
When the four members of the Wang family heard this, they immediately asked questions. There were so many people talking at once that Wang Zhennan didn't know which question to answer first.
"Ahem, everyone calm down." As the head of the family, Wang's father spoke first, "Don't worry, let Zhennan explain the situation first."
"Okay." The others nodded quickly.
"Okay, Zhennan, tell us about the person you like, who she is, where she lives, and what she does." said Wang's father.
Wang Zhennan nodded and told him everything he knew about Cui Shichu.
"What? She's been married for a long time and has two children? Even her daughter is married?" After hearing his words, Wang Mu's eyes went dark and she almost fainted. How old must she be to be the mother-in-law? Could her son have been deceived?
Mrs. Wang was also worried: "My dear little brother, that woman is not young anymore, how could you like her? Haven't you always been particular about art and beauty? Why don't you care about it this time?"
Brother Wang said with a straight face, "Is that woman trying to seduce you? No, this woman is not good enough for you. You should just forget about her."
"Zhennan, it's not that daddy disagrees with you finding someone older, but the older she is, can't be more than ten years older? What's more, she has two children. It's hard to be a stepfather." Father Wang advised.
Wang Zhennan listened to what they said and said blankly, "Mom, Dad, Big Brother and Big Sister-in-law, Shichu is not old. She is only a few years older than me. Although she has two children, she got married early, which does not mean she is old. In fact, she looks very young and beautiful... younger and more beautiful than my sister-in-law. Really, I didn't lie to you."
"How is this possible? Zhennan, are you thinking that she is young and beautiful because you see beauty in her eyes? Oh, what should I do? It's fine if you don't understand, but once you do, you fall for an unsuitable person?" The Queen Mother couldn't help but cover her chest.
"Yes, little brother, you are a young and promising researcher, and she is a widow selling buns. You are not worthy of her at all!" sighed Mrs. Wang.
Wang Zhennan never expected that his family would be so opposed to his relationship with Cui Shichu. Although he was in his thirties, he had never had any emotional experience. When he was less than ten years old, he was sent down to the countryside with his parents and older brother. He suffered a lot and became autistic and withdrawn.
By the time his parents' reputation was restored and they returned to the city, his character had already been formed. His father and mother spent a lot of effort to pull him out of his closed world, and finally raised him to be almost like a normal person.
But he was different from normal people in that he was too naive and did not understand the ways of the world. He was similar to what people later said as "high IQ but low EQ". Therefore, although he went to college and entered graduate school after graduation, he was actually still living under the wings of his parents and family.
In the past, the Wang family had thought about finding a wife for him, but Wang Zhennan had no interest in this at all, and he looked down on the women they introduced to him. Every time they asked him to spend some time with the girls and go shopping with them, he became impatient and said that it would be better for him to go home and read a book. Then he would leave the girl on the street and go home by himself, which made the girl so angry that she scolded the Wang family.
So over time, his family felt that he had no sense and stopped thinking about finding him a wife. He was happy working and reading every day by himself anyway, so he didn't have to get married.
But they didn't expect that after the Wang family had no hope in his feelings, he suddenly came to his senses and fell in love with someone else, and the woman he fell in love with was not a good match for him. How could they not be shocked?
Wang Zhennan pursed his lips, adjusted his glasses, his feather-like eyelashes flickered, and muttered, "I just like her."
The king's father and mother were in a very difficult situation. Their son had finally fallen in love with a woman, so they should have been happy. But when they thought that he fell in love with a widow who sold buns, they could not be happy anymore.
"Son, can't you really not like her?" the Queen Mother asked him with a sigh.
Wang Zhennan shook his head firmly: "No!"
The Queen Mother felt a headache when she thought of her son's characteristic of liking something for a long time.
Sister Wang pulled on her mother's arm and whispered, "How about we go find out more about that person first? My younger brother likes her right now, and if we strongly oppose it, it may backfire."
"Okay then." The Queen Mother said helplessly.
Wang Zhennan was listening to his mother and sister-in-law with his ears perked up. When he heard them say this, he immediately curled his lips. He was very sure that his mother and sister-in-law would like Cui Shichu after they got to know her.
But when will Cui Shichu like me? Wang Zhennan started to worry again when he thought of this.
