654: Are there any rules in this family?
Seeing that figure, Zhou Ziheng's eyes flashed, and he immediately stopped the jeep:
"parking!"
The driver braked suddenly and stopped.
Before the driver could turn around and ask what was going on, Zhou Ziheng had already opened the door and got out:
"Give me a few minutes."
Zhou Ziheng got out of the car and looked at a middle-aged man riding a bicycle.
The middle-aged man was wearing a Zhongshan suit, had a square head and big ears, and had an honest face. He was not very old, in his early thirties, but he looked very mature. Coupled with his slightly plump figure, he had the aura of a leader.
After Zhou Ziheng got off the jeep, the middle-aged man also looked towards the jeep. Seeing Zhou Ziheng standing next to the jeep, he immediately braked his bicycle, got off the jeep, and shouted in surprise:
"Hengzi!"
"Jia Zan!"
The two did not expect to meet here unexpectedly and were both very surprised.
Jia Zan pushed his bicycle and walked over quickly.
Zhou Ziheng closed the car door and walked over. The two met. There was a moment of surprise at first, but after the brief surprise, there was an embarrassment that could not be concealed.
Jia Zan's expression was very unnatural, and he forced a smile:
"Just yesterday I heard from your sister that you were coming here to attend the agricultural reclamation conference. What a coincidence that I ran into you here today."
After Yu Xiaoye beat You Wenyue away yesterday, Zhou Ziying was worried that You Wenyue would go home and complain in anger, so he chased out and stopped You Wenyue, and brought You Wenyue to Jia Zan. He explained to Jia Zan that Zhou Ziheng had come back for a meeting and brought his girlfriend with him, and that You Wenyue had met Zhou Ziheng's girlfriend, and a rift had arisen between them, and that Zhou Ziheng's girlfriend had accidentally beaten You Wenyue.
Jia Zan heard all this from Zhou Ziying.
Jia Zan knew that his wife had always liked Zhou Ziheng, and had not forgotten him over the years, so he completely believed what Zhou Ziying said.
It's just inevitable that I feel uncomfortable.
Zhou Ziheng felt a little sympathy when he saw Jia Zan forcing a smile, but some things were unsolvable. After so many years, Zhou Ziheng was almost numb:
"I didn't expect to see you here. What are you doing here so early?"
"Um, I—"
Seeing Jia Zan's hesitation, Zhou Ziheng immediately guessed something:
"Did Wen Yue run away from you and go home?"
Jia Zan nodded, his expression very helpless:
"Yingzi sent Wenyue to my place yesterday. I tried my best to persuade her and she settled down. But early this morning, before daybreak, she left again. I guess she went back to her parents' place."
Jia Zan was an honest person. He and Zhou Ziheng had been friends since childhood and had been inseparable. Therefore, he did not hide anything from Zhou Ziheng and told him everything truthfully.
Zhou Ziheng also guessed that Jia Zan could not really persuade You Wenyue, and You Wenyue would eventually go to her parents to complain, so he said:
"Jia Zan, you know that my girlfriend beat Wen Yue, right?"
"I know, Wen Yue has a big bump on her forehead." There was some heartache in Jia Zan's tone.
"Wen Yue was the first to attack. My girlfriend was just forced to defend herself—"
Jia Zan rushed to say:
"You don't have to tell me, I understand."
As he spoke, Jia Zan lowered his eyes, avoiding Zhou Ziheng's gaze, his face a little embarrassed.
Zhou Ziheng felt a little sorry for Jia Zan's situation. He knew that Jia Zan could not control You Wenyue, and Jia Zan himself knew this. In this relationship, Jia Zan was the most humble person.
But there are some things Zhou Ziheng must say:
"Jia Zan, we both know exactly what Wen Yue did in the past. For your sake and Uncle You's sake, I can let bygones be bygones. However, from now on, if she dares to touch my girlfriend or cause trouble for her, I will not let her off. Let her deal with it herself."
Jia Zan was shocked and looked at Zhou Ziheng again, unable to believe that this was what he said.
Jia Zan found it magical that Zhou Ziheng brought back a girlfriend, and he could hardly believe it was true.
But now, after hearing with his own ears how fiercely and ruthlessly Zhou Ziheng defended his girlfriend, Jia Zan finally believed that Zhou Ziheng was serious this time.
At the same time, Jia Zan was particularly curious about what kind of woman could make Zhou Ziheng protect her so well?
Jia Zan really wanted to sit down and have a good chat with Zhou Ziheng, but Zhou Ziheng said:
"I'm in a hurry and can't tell you too much. I'll talk to you another time when I have the chance."
"Okay, go ahead and don't delay your work. We'll talk another day."
"Um."
Zhou Ziheng turned around and got into the jeep.
Jia Zan watched Zhou Ziheng leave.
As the car drove away, Jia Zan was still curious about what kind of girl Zhou Ziheng had met that could cause him to change so drastically.
Because Zhou Ziheng has been handsome since he was a child and is very popular with girls, many girls have approached him secretly since he was a child. Although these girls were eventually blocked by You Wenyue, Zhou Ziheng still met many beautiful girls.
So many girls failed to impress him, why did he have a special liking for the girl from the Great Northern Wilderness?
In fact, Jia Zan has always been confused about Zhou Ziheng's injury. He always felt that Zhou Ziheng was not injured at all, but was just lying in order to avoid marrying You Wenyue.
Now, the appearance of Zhou Ziheng’s girlfriend confirms Jia Zan’s guess.
Logically speaking, if Zhou Ziheng had a girlfriend, Jia Zan's situation should be better and his family should be more stable.
But the actual situation was completely the opposite. The girlfriend Zhou Ziheng brought back made You Wenyue particularly excited.
The situation that had been able to maintain calm suddenly became unpredictable.
One is You Wenyue's paranoia, one is Zhou Ziheng's determination, and the other is the girl from the Great Northern Wilderness who sounds like she is not easy to mess with.
If these three people really clashed, Jia Zan couldn't imagine what would happen.
But no matter what, Jia Zan is always the most passive and helpless one.
Jia Zan was in a state of confusion.
He waited until the exhaust fumes from the car completely disappeared from the main road before pushing the cart through the small gate into the compound and heading straight for the You family.
------
On the Zhou family's side.
Aunt Zhang prepared breakfast and stewed a pot of red date and millet porridge. She also went to the cafeteria to buy some ready-made buns and fried dough sticks and fried a side dish. The meal was ready and she was waiting for Yu Xiaoye to come down to eat.
Aunt Zhang saw that the old couple were still waiting, so she stepped forward and said:
"Minister Zhou, Sister Zhuang, you guys should eat first. Don't wait for her. Hengzi told her to continue sleeping when he left. No one should disturb her."
Zhou Jingru was unhappy when he heard this:
"Is there any order in this house?"
Zhuang Huaijian hurriedly tried to persuade him:
"Okay, leave it alone."
As he spoke, he winked at the old man, meaning, what did your son do last night? Haven't you counted it yet? You spent the whole night together, could it be that he was just chatting under the covers?
Although Zhuang Huaijian didn't know whether his son and daughter-in-law had been together since they were in the Great Northern Wilderness, he was certain that the two of them must have been busy until late at night.
Young people's affairs cannot be hidden from their sharp eyes.
