Chapter 124: A loving uncle and a filial nephew
Wu Erbai agreed with Wuxie's words, but that didn't stop him from continuing to urge Wuxie to get married.
"Don't worry about his affairs, just take care of yourself first.
You're not young anymore. Look at how many of your close friends are married. Don't you want to get back the gift money you gave away?"
Wu Erbai, knowing that he was short of money, hit Wu Xie's weak spot with one sentence.
Thinking of those college classmates who loved to show off their love and were so mean, Wuxie felt a slight toothache.
"Compared to Third Uncle, I'm still young, there's no rush. Besides, I'm busy with my career right now, so I don't have time for a relationship."
Wuxie felt a little guilty when he said the latter part of the sentence, and Wu Erbai mercilessly pointed out his predicament.
"Then you should focus on your relationship instead of your career.
Don't think I don't know the current situation of Wushanju, which you are running. It's good enough if it doesn't lose money. Even if it can make money, our Wujia family is big and powerful, and we don't need the money you earn."
Wu Erbai sneered, causing Wu Xie to blush in embarrassment.
I'm an adult and still have to rely on my family for support. I suddenly feel so useless.
"You should find a lover as soon as possible, find a girl you like, and give birth to a big fat boy. It will be a contribution to the family to continue the family line.
Your grandmother has always been looking forward to having a great-grandchild, so if you get married soon, it will put her mind at ease."
Wuxie had a bitter face.
In fact, he doesn't really not want to fall in love. The key is that he knows himself well.
Looking at all his advantages, only his family background and his face are acceptable. Those he likes look down on him, and those who like him, he looks down on them. His main point is that he is not as good as the best, but better than the worst.
What's more, he has had a good intuition since he was a child. Those women are either after his money or his face. Some of them act like young ladies and don't look like the type of people who can eat instant noodles with him.
Wuxie felt that it was better to just go with the flow in this kind of thing. The blind dates arranged by his second uncle were like an assembly line formality, having dinner with strange girls, and he felt awkward every time he went.
Seeing Wu Erbai's patience gradually running out and him taking out a familiar folder full of photos, Wu Xie knew that if he couldn't come up with a suitable reason or find a solid shield, he would definitely have to repeat the embarrassing time of blind date again.
At this moment, his brain was working frantically, and in a flash, he actually came up with a very suitable excuse.
This excuse could not only shut his second uncle up for a long time, but also put a huge blame on his third uncle.
Wuxie acted as if he was ready to die bravely, closed his eyes, and spoke with a sad face.
"Second Uncle, since things have come to this, I won't hide it from you anymore."
Wuxie took a deep breath, looked very determined, and spoke with great force.
"Actually, I already have someone I like, and he's the current head of the Xie family, Xie Yuchen!"
Wu Erbai suddenly heard the name of a person who shouldn't be here. His body froze in place, his mouth slightly open, and his expression looked a little dull.
I was a little stuttered when speaking and couldn't believe my ears.
"You...you, what did you say? Say it again!"
In fact, Wuxie felt a little regretful after saying this.
In his opinion, since Second Uncle can cover up for the couple Third Uncle and Hejie Uncle, it means that Second Uncle does not reject homosexuality. What if he listens to him and supports him in pursuing Xiaohua?
Will he go or not when the time comes?
If he goes, he will be repeatedly socially frustrated at Xiaohua's place. If he doesn't go, his second uncle will make him suffer a fate worse than death!
However, after seeing Wu Erbai's jaw-dropping look, Wu Xie felt relieved.
It’s okay to be shocked, it’s okay to not believe it, as long as you don’t support him, everything is fine.
Although he was thinking so in his heart, Wuxie looked miserable on the surface. He lowered his head and the corners of his mouth kept twitching, as if he was smiling bitterly. In fact, he was thinking about the blame that was about to be put on his uncle, and he could hardly hold back his laughter.
"Oh, Second Uncle, you don't have to be so surprised. I've liked Xiaohua for a long time. The reason I haven't looked for him in all these years is because I know that I've fallen in love with a man I can never get..."
Wuxie pouted and frantically suppressed his laughter, his voice becoming a little hoarse from holding it in, but it was just right for the current situation.
After building up his emotions, Wuxie began to recall the past with a melancholy look in his eyes.
"Uncle, do you still remember when Xiaohua first came to our house?
How cute Xiaohua was back then, with her pink coat and her whole body soft and cuddly, like a New Year doll, she would sweetly call me brother.
It’s such a pity, why is Xiaohua a boy?
Wuxie showed a melancholy look without concealing it.
"I saw him in the crowd at first sight, and that's when I made up my mind to make him my future wife."
This incident did happen, but at that time I didn't know anything and just spoke without thinking.
After hearing these words, Wu Erbai was shocked again after being shocked by the news that "Wuxie actually likes men, and Jie Yuchen at that".
What the hell? These two kids were barely ten years old at the time. How could this look like they were secretly getting married?
"Actually, I didn't understand anything at that time, and I didn't know Xiaohua was a boy.
But you all didn't tell me Xiaohua's gender, and my third uncle kept encouraging me and supporting me to marry Xiaohua when I grew up, so I took this matter to heart.
Later, because of Uncle Jie's accident, our two families stopped communicating. Xiaohua was no longer my playmate, but he was always active in my heart. The longer I couldn't see him, the more I missed him. Then, I don't know when, this simple concern turned into love..."
Wuxie's nonsense directly put the blame on Wu Sansheng.
He stole a glance at Wu Erbai, whose lips were trembling and whose expression was a little explosive, and felt that his third uncle would have to shed a layer of skin if he didn't die.
As if the stimulation was not enough, Wuxie turned into a distraught look, lowering his eyes and looking at a corner in a trance, continuing to add fuel to the fire.
"Uncle, I really don't want to accept those blind dates you arranged. That's over a decade of secret love, my entire youth. How can I let go of it?"
Wu Erbai's breathing stagnated, and he staggered back a step, supporting himself on the desk with one hand. He felt his vision go dark and he felt dizzy. There was only one thought in his mind.
Wu Sansheng, get back here and die!!!
But things have come to this point. Wu Erbai knows that even if he beat Wu Sansheng until he was paralyzed, it would not change anything now. He spoke to Wu Xie with some difficulty.
"Xiao Xie, he is the head of the Jie family, and you are the only heir of the Wu family. Even if you two are in love with each other, it will be difficult for you to be together, not to mention..."
"I know. I also wanted to forget him, but after meeting him a few days ago, I realized I couldn't do it. He was as dazzling as the stars in the sky, but he was a height that was beyond my reach."
It is indeed dazzling and out of reach...
Wuxie's eyes were a little red. Every time he compared himself with Xiaohua, he couldn't help but want to crawl in the dark and howl wildly, feeling that he was not worthy of being friends with the rich.
One of them is a poor loser, the other is a domineering president. They are both from the third generation of the Nine Sects. How can the gap between them be so big?
"I'm not someone who can't see the reality. Perhaps we are just not meant to be together in this life... I will try my best to forget him. Can you give me some more time, Second Uncle?"
Wuxie pursed his lips tightly, his eyes were red like a rabbit, and he looked at Wu Erbai pitifully, which made Wu Erbai's heart soften.
Wuxie simply fell in love with the wrong person because of a joke from an unscrupulous elder. What was his fault? Besides, he had also said that he would try to forget this relationship.
His poor nephew is innocent! The one who is wrong is Wu Sanxing!
Wu Erbai came to this conclusion in his heart, and his eyes looked at Wuxie with even more tenderness and compassion.
Don’t worry, your second uncle will definitely seek justice for you!
"Okay, that's great. No one will force you to do that. Go out for a walk and relax when you have time."
