911: Are you trying to be a matchmaker?
Shao Xia greeted the two brothers and went upstairs as if she knew the place well. It seemed that she had been to Zhou's house before and was very familiar with it.
Jia Zan watched Shao Xia go up the stairs until she disappeared around the corner. Then he looked away and asked Jia Song beside him:
"Are you familiar with this Mr. Shao?"
"Of course, we're old acquaintances. We were in the company next to each other in the Great Northern Wilderness. Later, we even rehearsed and performed in the same propaganda team as Xiao Ye. We hung out together every day, so of course we're familiar with each other."
Jia Zan muttered softly:
"I didn't know about this."
Jia Song felt that his elder brother's words were incomprehensible:
"Why do you want to know?"
"Oh, it's okay, it's okay—"
Jia Zan had a pleasant surprise today. It turned out that the teacher Shao he had always wanted to thank was actually a friend of his brother and Yu Xiaoye. In this way, he and Teacher Shao had become acquaintances after a roundabout way.
I was just worrying about how to thank Teacher Shao, but unexpectedly, things turned out differently and I became an acquaintance with her now.
Thinking of this, Jia Zan couldn't help but smile.
Jia Zan did not notice the change in his mentality, and did not realize that his mind had begun to be occupied by the kind and patient teacher Shao.
When the banquet started, Jia Zan never realized that his eyes were subconsciously following Shao Xia. No matter where Shao Xia went, his eyes followed her. It was like a parent's eyes always on his young child.
But it's more complicated than that.
No one noticed this change in Jia Zan except one person, and that person was Zhou Ziheng.
Zhou Ziheng noticed that Jia Zan was always looking at something absent-mindedly, smiling from time to time, and his face showed a kind of excitement that he had never had before.
Zhou Ziheng felt puzzled and looked in the direction Jia Zan was looking at several times, but he didn't know what Jia Zan was looking at.
But after watching it for a long time, I finally discovered that wherever Jia Zan looked, there seemed to be the shadow of Shao Xia.
Shao Xia?
Jia Zan—actually staring at Shao Xia?
This unexpected discovery made Zhou Ziheng a little unbelievable. He didn't dare to make a decision easily, so he deliberately used a little trick and told Yu Xiaoye to let Shao Xia help look after the children while they went to toast some elders.
Yu Xiaoye never thought that Zhou Ziheng, the old fox, had hidden intentions and cooperated to hand his son over to Shao Xia:
"Shao Xia, please help me look after Zheng Zheng. Brother Heng and I are going to toast some elders."
"Okay, give Zheng Zheng to me, I'll hold him."
Shao Xia sat on the sofa, Yu Xiaoye put his son in Shao Xia's arms, and Shao Xia sat on the sofa and played with Zheng Zheng, who was just one hundred days old.
On this side, Zhou Ziheng was accompanying Yu Xiaoye in socializing while secretly observing Jia Zan's reaction.
Just as he expected!
Jia Zan actually kept looking towards the sofa.
Really looking at Shao Xia!
Zhou Ziheng suddenly laughed.
Yu Xiaoye, who was standing by, noticed that he laughed suddenly and was curious. He asked quietly:
"What's wrong? What are you laughing at?"
Zhou Ziheng asked:
"Does Shao Xia have a boyfriend?"
"As far as I know, there shouldn't be any. Why are you asking this all of a sudden? What are you planning?"
Zhou Ziheng smiled without saying anything and raised his chin in the direction of Jia Zan.
Yu Xiaoye was puzzled. She didn't know who Zhou Ziheng wanted her to look at among the group of people. Could it be that Zhou Ziheng wanted to introduce a boyfriend to Shao Xia?
Thinking of this, Yu Xiaoye asked jokingly:
"Brother Heng, you don't want to be a matchmaker, do you?"
"Yes, how about I introduce a boyfriend to Shao Xia?"
Yu Xiaoye was surprised that she had actually guessed it right:
"When did you become interested in this kind of thing? This isn't like you—first, tell me, who among that group of people do you have your eyes on?"
Yu Xiaoye asked and guessed that there were indeed a few young talents who looked pretty good among the group of people, all of whom were young people from the compound, but he didn't know which one Zhou Ziheng was referring to.
Zhou Ziheng said calmly:
"Jia Zan."
"——" Yu Xiaoye opened her mouth in disbelief. Among that group of people, she thought anyone could be the possibility, but she didn't think of Jia Zan!
"I'm not kidding you, if you don't believe me, just look for yourself."
Yu Xiaoye secretly observed Jia Zan and saw Jia Zan occasionally looking up. Yu Xiaoye followed Jia Zan's gaze and found that Jia Zan was looking at Shao Xia.
"Brother Heng, you are so cunning that you can even find out this!"
"I've never seen Jia Zan staring at any girl like that." Except for You Wenyue, Jia Zan has never shown interest in women over the years. This is the first time Zhou Ziheng has discovered that Jia Zan is attracted to a girl.
Although it is not certain whether Jia Zan really likes Shao Xia, sometimes liking someone is a matter of a moment. At first, it is like a seed that is invisible to the naked eye. It seems vague and weak, but it grows in the dark and grows stronger little by little.
For Jia Zan, this seed is extremely precious.
Jia Zan finally met another seed outside of the shadow of Juventus for so many years.
But Yu Xiaoye didn't think so. She worried:
"But, isn't the age difference between them a bit too big? Is it appropriate?"
"We are not far behind, but we are also very happy."
Yu Xiaoye wanted to say that it was different. When she met Zhou Ziheng, he was only in his thirties and still very young. Moreover, Zhou Ziheng looked much younger than his peers, so deep down Yu Xiaoye didn't think that Zhou Ziheng was much older than her.
Jia Zan is different. Jia Zan is very mature and the age difference can be seen at a glance.
The most important thing is that Jia Zan has a son and has had a bad marriage. Selfishly speaking, Yu Xiaoye doesn't want her good friend to marry a man so much older than her and become a stepmother to someone else.
But on the other hand, Jia Zan's family conditions and economic conditions are indeed very good, and his character is beyond words. He is definitely a good man who can be relied on.
As long as Jia Zan can completely forget You Wenyue, he is a good man worthy of entrusting his life to.
Therefore, Yu Xiaoye was a little hesitant for a while.
Zhou Ziheng instigated:
"Xiao Ye, give it a try. If the two of them don't get along or Shao Xia doesn't like Jia Zan, then forget it. But what if the two of them are suitable? Give them a chance, give Jia Zan a chance. Jia Zan is a good person. I really don't want him to end up alone in this life. He deserves his own happiness."
Seeing Zhou Ziheng's concern for his friend, Yu Xiaoye finally agreed:
"Well, for your sake, I'll just try it."
"Okay, thank you, wife."
The two of them didn't say much and acted separately in tacit understanding.
Zhou Ziheng walked towards Jia Zan, while Yu Xiaoye went to Shao Xia to see his son.
Shao Xia took the opportunity to say to Yu Xiaoye:
"Xiao Ye, isn't it a coincidence? I just found out now that Jia's eldest brother is the father of my student."
Yu Xiaoye was surprised:
"Lele is your student?"
Shao Xia smiled:
"Yeah, isn't it a coincidence? I just ran into Jia Le's dad. I was wondering why he was here. Then Jia Ge came over and I found out that he was Jia Ge's eldest brother and Jia Le's father. Jia Le is actually Jia Song's nephew! After all this fuss, we all know each other."
"So that's how it is—" Yu Xiaoye nodded thoughtfully. No wonder Jia Zan kept stealing glances at Shao Xia. It turned out that Shao Xia was Jia Le's teacher.
It seems that they were just being too sentimental. Jia Zan was peeking at Shao Xia not because he really liked her, but simply because she was his son's teacher.
It seems that Brother Heng is going to be disappointed.
