Chapter 1005: Chapter 426: The Daughter Cries, the Mother Comes – Part 2

Yang Lijuan was a bit angry and insisted that Zhou Guobin say a few words too. It took Zhou Guobin a while to say, “Isn’t there Xiao Zheng?”

Yang Lijuan thought about it for a moment and felt that among so many people, Zheng Yanyan was really not bad. First of all, she’s from the Capital city.

“Our Yuwen found a girl from the Capital city. In the future, when the grandson is born, he’ll be a Capital city person too. But ah, Yanyan, this girl, doesn’t look like someone who’ll manage a household well. She’ll definitely spend money.” Yang Lijuan mused, saying, “Actually, that Xiao Tao and Xiao Lu are also pretty good.”

“Xiao Tao, well, her looks are too outstanding, I’m afraid she won’t be honest. Xiao Lu, on the other hand, is alright, obedient and honest, can cook, just doesn’t like to talk.”

Yang Lijuan went over the pros and cons of each girl and then said, “Hey, if our daughter-in-law could have Xiao Jiang’s family background, be as obedient as Xiao Lu, as articulate as Yanyan, as considerate as Su Qing, and then be like Xiao Tao, wouldn’t that be perfect!”

Zhou Guobin couldn’t help but purse his lips, “Hmm, you’re taking all the good stuff; might as well make them all your daughters-in-law.”

Hearing this, Yang Lijuan gave him a side-eye, saying Zhou Guobin was talking nonsense.

“I only have one son; where would I get so many daughters-in-law?”

“Isn’t that what you meant?”

Yang Lijuan naturally disagreed, but her face was smiling brightly.

At this moment, Zhou Yuwen walked in from outside.

The old couple immediately stopped talking and looked at Zhou Yuwen, noticing their son’s low spirits. Yang Lijuan opened her mouth, “Xiao Jiang has been sent back?”

“Yes, why are you still in the living room, Mom and Dad?”

Zhou Yuwen asked.

Yang Lijuan said wasn’t she worried about you?

“Xiao Su was quite worrying just now. Did you ask how she’s doing now?” Yang Lijuan still looked worried.

Zhou Yuwen said nothing serious.

“She’s always like this. She’ll be fine in a few days. It’s not early anymore; you should go to bed early.”

Saying this, Zhou Yuwen urged his parents to go upstairs and rest.

Obviously, Yang Lijuan had a lot on her mind she wanted to discuss with her son, but as she was ushered upstairs by Zhou Yuwen, she hesitated to speak, saying, “Yuwen, Xiao Su might have been a bit harsh with her words just now, but I think there’s some truth to what she said.”

“Mom and Dad know you’ve made a name for yourself, have capabilities now, but when it comes to relationships, it’s better to keep them pure. Don’t believe me? Ask your dad. How many cases has your dad handled, and how many capable people have been brought down by women?”

Yang Lijuan kept rambling, but Zhou Yuwen only said he understood.

Then he saw them to the door, and finally, with a smile, said one last thing.

“You rarely come to Jinling, and I can’t even find a daughter-in-law who can show you around. How about this, I’ll arrange something tomorrow. Mom and Dad, let’s see if we can have someone show you around Jinling properly.”

Yang Lijuan laughed and said, “No need, it’s not our first time here.”

Though she said that, Zhou Yuwen still planned to make arrangements.

He sent his parents into the room to rest.

Zhou Yuwen also went into his room.

He took a quick shower, then picked up his phone.

His first thought wasn’t Jiang Xinyi, it was still Su Qing. By this time, Su Qing usually would have sent a message, but unexpectedly, she hadn’t this time.

Zhou Yuwen even opened Su Qing’s chat window to take a look. He originally wanted to send her a message telling her to stop messing around but ended up deleting it.

At this moment, Zhou Yuwen’s mind was in a bit of turmoil.

After all, across two lifetimes, how could you just let go so easily?

He was unusually troubled by Su Qing.

At the same time, Jiang Xinyi, this pampered young lady, was also crying her heart out for the first time over a man.

Heading home in such a state, Liu Jing couldn’t possibly not notice.

Initially, Liu Jing thought her daughter would return from meeting her future in-laws for the first time with smiles and laughter.

After all, her daughter was so excellent, while Zhou Yuwen’s parents were just ordinary people. Who wouldn’t be pleased to have such a golden phoenix in their family?

They probably couldn’t flatter their daughter enough.

Yet, a turn later, she heard crying and saw her daughter’s tear-streaked face, and Liu Jing’s face immediately turned serious.

“What happened?”

Jiang Xinyi said nothing and ran straight to her room, crying her eyes out.

When Liu Jing came over to ask, Jiang Xinyi just held onto her mother’s neck and continued crying, her eyes turning red.

Jiang Xinyi cried louder, and Liu Jing’s expression became more serious.

She asked Jiang Xinyi sternly, she said, “Tell me, did Zhou Yuwen bully you?”

Jiang Xinyi had red eyes, she bit her lip, and after a long pause, she said, “It’s not related to him.”

“Then why are you crying so loudly?”

Jiang Xinyi said that Zhou Yuwen had an ex-girlfriend named Su Qing who was always pestering him and talked in a particularly vulgar way.

Jiang Xinyi told Liu Jing everything Su Qing had said to her today.

After listening, Liu Jing frowned and asked in disbelief, “How can there be such an uncultured girl!?”

By this time, Jiang Xinyi had stopped crying, she wiped her tears and said, “That’s not what makes me upset.”

“Then what is?”

Jiang Xinyi’s face showed a hint of discomfort as she said, “I didn’t expect Zhou Yuwen to be mean to me because of her.”

“How dare he be mean to you?”

Liu Jing, as if she had heard the biggest joke, thought of her darling daughter.

Zhou Yuwen was indeed very outstanding, but his excellence depended on whom he was compared with, and he didn’t even know what our family had?

I never paid attention to social standing and was willing to hand over my darling daughter to Zhou Yuwen.

And yet Zhou Yuwen dared to be mean to my daughter.

Jiang Xinyi, afraid of her mother’s anger, said in a seemingly coquettish way that it wasn’t really mean.

“It’s just, he said his ex-girlfriend was a part of him too, and said something about Su Qing originally knowing his parents, that it was understandable to meet them since they rarely come to Jinling.”

Even without exaggeration, Jiang Xinyi’s words still made Liu Jing’s face turn grim.

Jiang Xinyi, afraid Liu Jing would confront Zhou Yuwen, took the initiative to hug her mother and said, Mom, don’t go to Zhou Yuwen, this matter has nothing to do with him.

“It’s all because of Su Qing, she wasn’t wrong.”

As Jiang Xinyi spoke, she wiped her tears again, and repeated what Su Qing had said about how because of her age and not being rich, Zhou Yuwen wouldn’t even look at her.

The more she spoke, the more aggrieved she felt.

Liu Jing couldn’t bear to see her daughter so aggrieved, and comforted her by saying it was okay.

And Jiang Xinyi asked her mother what they should do.

She squeezed out her tears and told her mother that Zhou Yuwen had said to her that he wouldn’t break ties with Su Qing or Zheng Yanyan because of her.

“He said, either I accept this, or break up with him?”

When Jiang Xinyi said this, she indeed looked a bit aggrieved, it was obvious that she didn’t want to leave Zhou Yuwen.

Liu Jing hugged her daughter and comforted her, saying it was going to be okay.

“He says he can’t break up, so let me do it for him.” Liu Jing’s expression grew colder.

Jiang Xinyi said, “Mom, don’t go looking for trouble with Zhou Yuwen, he doesn’t want you involved in our matters.”

Liu Jing smiled and said, “Don’t worry, I know that of course, dating is a matter for the two of you and what am I always getting involved for, okay, stop crying.”

As she spoke, she helped Jiang Xinyi wipe her tears.

After being comforted by Liu Jing for a while, Jiang Xinyi felt a bit better.

At night, she kept holding onto her phone, hoping Zhou Yuwen would send her a message.

But she waited all night and didn’t get any message, and fell asleep holding her phone.

Actually, Zhou Yuwen was almost the same, he didn’t sleep well all night because of Su Qing, but he didn’t take the initiative to seek out Su Qing.

So a night passed just like that.

Early the next morning, Zhou Yuwen canceled all his engagements, thinking of taking his parents on a tour of Zhongshan Scenic Spot. Zhou Yuwen was not the type to know how to serve people, so he called Lu Wanting and Peng Xiaoyong over.

Peng Xiaoyong had a certain rough integrity about him, but it didn’t matter, he was a cousin after all and could chat with father a bit.

And Lu Wanting’s job was as an assistant, she also knew Zhou Yuwen’s identity and had intentions of flattering him. With these two accompanying his parents, Zhou Yuwen felt more at ease.

It was on this day that Zhou Yuwen accompanied his parents on a day out.

Early in the morning, Liu Jing put on makeup with an imposing aura and went to Zhou Yuwen’s school.
