Chapter 403

Zhou Er Ni broke into a slight grin.

"In fact, in the eyes of outsiders, there is a gap between your fourth uncle and me." Lin Qing He told her.

This was the truth. She was a foreign language teacher at Bei University. Who wouldn’t highly look upon her when she said it? The foreign language teacher at Peking University! It was an overstatement to say it was a golden sign.

While Zhou Qing Bai, even though he earns money, he was still self-employed. Even when it was profitable, it wasn’t as decent as her proper employment.

So wasn’t the gap showing?

Zhou Er Ni made no comment.

"A gap is a gap. Whether two people can get along well, doesn’t depend on these external conditions. The key point is whether the two people can converse together and whether two people can bond together through this. Your fourth uncle’s and my external factors aren’t a match, still, I love your fourth uncle. Of course, your fourth uncle loves me." Lin Qing He clarified without embarrassment.

Zhou Er Ni was slightly embarrassed.

"Let him come over to have a meal tonight. He should come over for a meal formally." Lin Qing He said.

Zhou Er Ni hesitated and said: "Fourth Aunt, this...isn’t this going too fast?"

"What fast? Do you still want to continue to leave him hanging? It’s been more than two months. It’s okay to bring him to the home for a meal." Lin Qing He said: "After eating at my side, you have to take him over to your grandparent’s side and have a meal with them."

"Too...too fast." Zhou Er Ni flushed.

"It’s just a meal. It’s not like we’re getting you engaged. It’s considered he has met the grown-up in the family. You don’t have to hide when dating. It’s okay to hold your little hands but can’t do anything else. Don’t be polite with him if he oversteps the boundaries." Lin Qing He warned.

"Aunt, I haven’t let him hold my hand at all." Zhou Er Ni flushed with shyness.

"Holding hands is fine. However, if he go any further, then you don’t have to be polite. Simply give him a big slap to the face." Lin Qing He taught.

Zhou Er Ni was overwhelmed with embarrassment. Lin Qing He smiled and said: "In a blink of an eye, you’re also a 19-year-old girl."

The reason why she would support this was because Zhou Er Ni had certainly reached the age. She was 19 this year and 20 next year. If she was still studying (in high school), then it was fine. But she wasn’t studying, it was really harmless to date at this age. After all, she was all grown up.

Date first. After being together for two or three years, they can get married. It couldn’t be more appropriate.

And Wang Yuan was also attentive to Zhou Er Ni, so why not try? It was okay to separate if it doesn’t work out. At least, there won’t be regrets, right?

After talking about this with her niece, Lin Qing He came down to eat lamb dumplings in a good mood.

"It’s too greasy eating this in the morning." Lin Qing He remarked. She kind of wanted to eat shepherd’s purse dumplings.

"It’s not easy to be hungry when you are full," Zhou Qing Bai responded. Then he continued: "I have stewed chicken for you. Come back early at noon."

"Okay." Lin Qing He nodded before she went to class.

Zhou Er Ni came down. She was a little embarrassed. Zhou Qing Bai said, "What will you have?"

Zhou Er Ni asked for a bowl of pork and cabbage dumplings. She was quietly relieved to see her fourth uncle didn’t say anything.

She got Chen Shan Shan to watch at the shop in the afternoon and found time to come to the garment factory to find Wang Yuan. When Wang Yuan heard her fourth aunt invited him to dinner, he keenly sensed something.

"Fourth Uncle and Fourth Aunt know about us?" Wang Yuan immediately changed the title and questioningly looked at Zhou Er Ni.

"What Fourth Uncle and Fourth Aunt. Don’t think so much. Just want to invite you over for a meal." Zhou Er Ni lectured but there was a degree of shyness on her face.

It went without saying how overjoyed Wang Yuan was. Look, his efforts during this period weren’t in vain.

Finally, he was going to eat as their nephew-in-law!

"Wait for me for a bit. I can go with you after I have all these in my hands done." Wang Yuan said.

"Not waiting. Go there by yourself later. I have to go back to watch the store." Zhou Er Ni finished and ignored him.

Lin Qing He got Zhou Qing Bai to buy a lot of groceries back. The family only had dinner at 7 o’clock in the evening.

"Uncle, Aunt, a toast for you." At the dinner table, Wang Yuan toasted Zhou Qing Bai and Lin Qing He.

"What Uncle and Aunt?" Zhou Gui Lai went to bed early last night, so he didn’t know the situation. When he heard this, he puzzledly uttered: "I’m calling you, Uncle Wang Yuan. This generation is in a mess."

Zhou Er Ni’s face was red.

At the dinner table, Hu Zi, and Gang Zi grinned.

"Eat. Talking too much." Zhou Xuan clipped a piece of chicken for him and said.

"What talking so much? It’s getting mixed up." Zhou Gui Lai responded.

"It’s not. Your sister and I are dating. It is right to call Fourth Uncle and Fourth Aunt." Wang Yuan stated. His face’s thickness couldn’t be compared with Zhou Er Ni.

Immediately, Zhou Gui Lai’s eyes widened. He looked at him, then at his sister Er Ni, and said in amazement: "When did you two get together?"

"Smelly boy, not eating are you?" Lin Qing He asked.

What hook up? Although this vocabulary was used, it seems to be quite appropriate.

An enormous blush emerged on Zhou Er Ni’s face. Zhou Gui Lai was very curious: "When did this all happen? Why don’t I know?"

Wang Yuan said, "Your sister and I have been going out for a long time ago. You just didn’t notice it."

"I really didn’t notice. However, let me tell you that it is not so easy to be our brother-in-law." Zhou Gui Lai raised his chin.

In a blink of an eye, the identities were different. So he didn’t need to hold back.

"Hurry up and eat your food." Zhou Er Ni was too embarrassed and snapped.

"You can’t do this. Just starting and you’re already biased," Zhou Gui Lai hollered.

Let alone other people, Lin Qing He and Zhou Qing Bai both had grins on their faces.

This meal became particularly lively due to having Zhou Gui Lai.

After eating, Zhou Qing Bai said to Wang Yuan, "Have a meal with Er Ni’s grandparents another day."

"Okay, I’ll listen to Fourth Uncle!" Wang Yuan was indeed a successful businessman. There was no words for his thin skin.

Open and close mouth and it was ’Uncle’ and ’Aunt’. No blush or stutter. Zhou Er Ni quietly glared at him a few times.

In order to avoid frightening Father Zhou and Mother Zhou, Lin Qing He mentioned it in advance.

As expected, both Father Zhou and Mother Zhou were shocked.

Mother Zhou hurriedly said: "Huh? The one who came with Er Wa last time? Isn’t he the big boss of the garment factory? He’s going out with Er Ni?"

"He is the boss of a garment factory, who supplies my clothing store. Still, it doesn’t conflict with being Er Ni’s partner." Lin Qing He smilingly responded.

"But this...How did it come to this?" Mother Zhou stammered.

"How can it not? Our Er Ni is so good, so outstanding. She’s a slim and graceful young woman. She is only nineteen years old. Youthful with educated air. She’s extroverted when talking and handling matters. Which boy isn’t going to give her a few glances when she goes out? "Lin Qing He said.
