Chapter 36 Did Xia Mian really say that?
When Xia Mian saved Zhou Pingchuan's contact name, she genuinely felt disgusted by his pretentiousness.
But after seeing Xue Chunling, his opinion of Zhou Pingchuan changed slightly.
Judging from her speech, behavior, and lifestyle, it's clear that Xue Chunling comes from a rural background. Now that she's retired, she probably longs to return to rural life.
Nangang has a pleasant climate, ideal for recuperation. To make the wet nurse's recuperation more comfortable and reassuring, Zhou Pingchuan specially built a house modeled after the architecture of her hometown, and made the interior design even more livable.
Normally, Zhou Pingchuan is as indifferent and ruthless as a machine, but today, he glimpsed a "human" side of Zhou Pingchuan.
However, whether Zhou Pingchuan has feelings or not is irrelevant to him, a mere cannon fodder; those feelings belong to Xia Mingzhao.
Moreover, no matter how well Zhou Pingchuan does, it cannot make up for the crime of attacking him yesterday!
Five million could buy his rose necklace, but it couldn't compensate for his emotional distress. He's priceless, okay?
Xia Mian retrieved the car, snorted coldly, and decided not to contact Zhou Pingchuan for the time being, nor would she keep asking about the date. This marriage would happen when it was time to get married; whoever was in a hurry was a bastard.
He opened WeChat, deleted the three words "Deadly Pretender Bro," and without thinking, changed them to "ATM"—Zhou Pingchuan only deserves to be an ATM!
Then, he released the handbrake and headed towards the next recording location, Qingyun Film and Television City.
At the same time, Zhou Pingchuan received a call from Xue Chunling.
"Pingchuan, have you sent Mianmian over there?"
"Um."
"This child is good; you must treat him well and not drive him away."
That little cat was indeed easily angered. Zhou Pingchuan chuckled softly, as if he had thought of something.
"Oh, right," Xue Chunling suddenly remembered, "when you're not busy tonight, send me the time and place of the engagement. I need to go and join in the fun. Also, I've prepared a gift that I want to give to Mianmian on that day."
"Aunt Xue, the date hasn't been set yet."
"Not decided yet?" Xue Chunling asked in surprise. "Why not? I just asked Mianmian, and she said everything is progressing normally."
That's what summer sleep actually said?
Zhou Pingchuan was quite surprised.
He was a businessman who knew that no one gets up early without a profit, so when Xia Mian took the initiative to propose marriage, he naturally assumed that Xia Mian, like other families, wanted to rely on the Zhou family and get a share of the profits.
Afterwards, when he went to the Xia family to deliver the betrothal letter, the Xia couple's attentive attitude towards him confirmed his suspicions. Even recently, Xia Mian's eagerness to ask him about the date of the betrothal ceremony, and her even going so far as to follow him to Nangang, all demonstrated how calculating Xia Mian was.
Naturally, he assumed Xia Mian would hint to the wet nurse to help expedite the process. However, Xia Mian said nothing and even embellished the facts.
It's reminiscent of children reporting only good news and hiding bad news to reassure their parents.
"Pingchuan," Xue Chunling thought for a moment, but still couldn't help asking, "Why haven't you set a date? Are you dissatisfied with Mianmian?"
Xue Chunling wouldn't advise Zhou Pingchuan on who to choose or not to choose; he was someone who knew exactly what he wanted. Moreover, she knew in her heart that she wasn't Zhou Pingchuan's biological mother and had no right to influence his life.
Although she thought Xia Mian was nice, she definitely wouldn't say anything if Ping Chuan needed to consider it.
But Zhou Pingchuan said, "We'll set a date later and call you after we do."
"Alright, alright, I'll be waiting to hear your good news!"
