Chapter 1991 - 1990: Find a Woman
Chapter 1991: Chapter 1990: Find a Woman
Ziyi turned the topic back to Jing Xiaocha, looking at her with curious bright eyes and speaking in a mature voice that didn’t match his age, "Aunt Xiao Cha, since you don’t have a boyfriend and my second uncle doesn’t have a girlfriend, why don’t you become his girlfriend?"
Ziyi’s thought was, so you all don’t have to stay single.
His words caused everyone at the table to burst into laughter.
"Brother."
A soft and delicate voice chimed in amid the laughter, instantly grabbing Ziyi’s attention.
He turned his head and gave Qingqing, who was sitting next to him, a gentle smile, picking up his chopsticks to serve her the dish she pointed at.
At another table sat Gu Yan, Mo Xiuchen, Gu Kai, Qin Mu, Wen Jin, Lu Zhiyan, and others.
With a half-smile, Gu Kai teased, "Ah Jin, what was going on with you and Jing Xiaocha just now?"
Wen Jin was sipping soup and didn’t immediately look up when he heard Gu Kai’s words.
Only after swallowing the soup did he calmly raise his head to meet Gu Kai’s amused eyes, casually replying, "It was too crowded just now."
"Ah Jin, I’ve introduced you to so many women with great qualifications, why don’t you give any of them a chance? Don’t tell me you’re interested in that little girl just now?"
It was Gu Yan speaking.
In recent months, he’d been quite concerned about Wen Jin’s matter, not only ensuring to introduce him to potential girlfriends but also guaranteeing these women were of high quality in terms of character and all other aspects.
Yet, Ah Jin seemed uninterested in all the women he’d introduced.
Gu Yan was genuinely worried that if this continued, Ah Jin wouldn’t have a wife by the time he was forty. He used to worry about his son Gu Kai, but now his concern for Wen Jin surpassed that for Gu Kai.
Mo Xiuchen chuckled lightly, "Dad, that Jing Xiaocha is also a nice girl. If Ah Jin really is interested in her, it would save you from worrying about him."
"Xiuchen, don’t say such things."
Wen Jin frowned, displeased, and glared at Mo Xiuchen.
If he were interested in Jing Xiaocha, he would have been with her before she went abroad.
Why wait until now?
Mo Xiuchen gave Wen Jin a look that said he wasn’t making things up.
Gu Yan furrowed his brows slightly, pondering, "Earlier, Jin Fengjiao mentioned that the girl named Jing Xiaocha is dating her brother. If that’s true, then Ah Jin, you..."
"Uncle Gu, don’t listen to Xiuchen and Ah Kai’s nonsense. As far as I know, Jing Xiaocha might really be dating Jin Zheyu."
"Oh?"
Gu Yan’s voice lifted slightly.
Mo Xiuchen, sitting next to him, raised a handsome eyebrow.
Wen Jin hesitated a bit. That night, he ran into Jing Xiaocha and Jin Zheyu, only to find out that Jing Xiaocha had returned to the country.
It was also that night he heard Jin Zheyu telling the old man pestering Jing Xiaocha that she was his girlfriend.
"Just as Jin Fengjiao mentioned, Jin Zheyu went abroad with Jing Xiaocha when she left, and now they’ve returned together. With Jin Zheyu’s good qualities, there’s no reason Jing Xiaocha wouldn’t like him."
Gu Yan smiled indifferently, "If that’s the case, I’ll just introduce you to other girls."
Wen Jin smiled bitterly, "Uncle Gu, please don’t concern yourself with my matters."
"How can I not worry? Until you’re married, I can’t rest easy."
Gu Yan immediately put on a serious face, his gaze sweeping over everyone present, "At this table, you’re the only one left single. Ah Jin, if you have a type of girl you like, you can tell us. Even better if you have someone you like already."
As Gu Yan’s words dropped, Mo Xiuchen lowered his gaze slightly.
Wen Jin smiled to cover his discomfort, "I don’t have anyone I like. It’s just that the factory matters have been overwhelming lately, leaving me no time for other things."
"That’s no excuse for delaying such an important event as marriage. If you’re truly too busy, hire a couple more people."
Gu Yan wasn’t that easy to be fooled, having no belief in Wen Jin’s excuse.
Midway through, Gu Yan got up and made a phone call, then came back to tell Wen Jin, "Ah Jin, set aside time for next weekend. A daughter of an old friend of mine is coming back from abroad in a few days. You two can meet then."
Gu Kai looked at Wen Jin with schadenfreude, "Ah Jin, my dad is more worried about your marriage than he was about mine."
Wen Jin gave him a bland look, while Gu Kai simply chuckled.
Gu Yan proceeded to describe the girl, who was studying medicine, came from a good family, had high academic credentials, a good character, and was also good-looking.
"Ah Jin, this time you mustn’t decline. You have to try to get along with her. Love at first sight is rare. Many relationships develop over time."
**
After the wedding banquet, Ziyi ran up to Wen Jin, saying ingratiatingly, "Second Uncle, I found you a girlfriend."
Gu Kai and Qin Mu, who were with Wen Jin, raised their eyebrows in unison upon hearing Ziyi’s words, and Gu Kai asked ahead of Wen Jin, "Ziyi, what kind of girlfriend did you find for your second uncle?"
Wen Jin rubbed his forehead in frustration. What day was today?
Both the old and the young were concerned about his marriage. Even little Ziyi was helping him find a girlfriend.
Ziyi gave a mysterious smile, "It’s Aunt Xiao Cha. I asked just now, and Aunt Xiao Cha doesn’t have a boyfriend, and neither does Second Uncle."
Wen Jin’s mouth twitched as he feigned seriousness, "Ziyi, children shouldn’t speak carelessly."
Ziyi pouted, defending himself with righteous indignation, "Second Uncle, I’m not a child. I’m a little man with a girlfriend."
Qin Mu and Gu Kai couldn’t help bursting into laughter, not holding back when they saw Wen Jin’s dark expression. Gu Kai gave up on teasing and kindly advised, "Ziyi, finding a girlfriend can’t be done for someone else. Your second uncle has to be willing."
Ziyi blinked, pondering Gu Kai’s words.
Qin Mu also chimed in with a chuckle, "Exactly, just like how you like Sister Qingqing. It’s because you want to."
Ziyi touched his head thoughtfully. It seemed big uncle and Uncle Qin made sense. He nodded, "Second Uncle, in that case, you’ll have to pursue Aunt Xiao Cha yourself. I won’t help. I still have to take care of Sister Qingqing!"
With that, he didn’t care about Wen Jin’s expression, waved at them, and ran off again.
Gu Kai watched Ziyi’s retreating back, unable to hold back his laughter as he patted Wen Jin’s shoulder, "Ah Jin, if I were you, I’d quickly find a woman to marry. If not for my dad’s nagging, Ziyi might pester you to death too."
Between the relentless elder and the persistent youngster, how could he endure?
Qin Mu shook his head, sympathizing with Wen Jin.
Wen Jin watched Ziyi’s retreating back and then looked at Gu Kai and Qin Mu, feeling a bit melancholic.
