Chapter 32: Zhou Lin Was Shy

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“I said engagement. Do you have any objections?”

Old Master Zhou repeated his words, indicating that he did not say it on a whim but after consideration.

“Well… I don’t think that’s a good idea.”

Zhou Lin subconsciously began to refuse, but he was inwardly dissatisfied.

“You dumb*ss. It’s bad enough that you ruined all the previous marriages, but you even want to let go of the girl who moved your heart. How could the Zhou family have such a coward like you!”

The old man was so angry that he stood up from his chair and used the walking stick in his hand to hit the ground crazily.

“No, Dad. I just feel that based on your friendship with Old Master Yun as well as seniority, Yun Xi should address me as ‘Uncle’. If I were to be engaged to Yun Xi, wouldn’t that ruin the seniority between you and Old Master Yun?!”

Actually, when Zhou Lin heard that he was engaged to Yun Xi, he felt a trace of relief. After all, that girl’s temper and temperament were to his liking. Her mystery caused him to go crazy as well. Yun Xi was like a poppy, attracting him to get close to her and understand her. Even if poppy was highly poisonous and addictive…

“You kid, you’re overthinking it. You might end up harming yourself and her!”

Old Master Zhou lightly patted Zhou Lin’s shoulder.

“Don’t worry. Yun Xi and you aren’t related by blood. Your engagement is in accordance with the legal procedures. As for Buddy Yun and I, we’ll be fine. I’ll still call him Buddy Yun and call Yun Xi my daughter-in-law. It’s just a form of address. So what if I suffer a little for the sake of your lifelong happiness?!”

Old Master Zhou’s words made Zhou Lin felt as if he had been reassured.

“But, Dad, I’m afraid that Yun Xi won’t be willing to be with me.”

Zhou Lin did not know what Yun Xi was thinking right now even though she had given him a hair bracelet. According to Old Master Zhou, a hair bracelet was to express the love of a woman for a man. Even so, Yun Xi had indicated in the letter that this was just a way to pray for blessings in her hometown.

Zhou Lin naturally hoped that Yun Xi’s thoughts were the former in which there was love and affection between the two of them. Nevertheless, he was afraid that her intention was plain. In the end, that might be considered unrequited love.

“You kid, I usually see that you’re very confident in everything you do. Why are you so timid when it comes to love?!”

Old Master Zhou began to feel disappointed in Zhou Lin.

“I’ve read the letter that Yun Xi wrote to you. Although that girl’s hair bracelet is used to bless you, the way she addressed you has already said it all. She wrote your name, rather than addressing you as ‘Uncle’. Doesn’t this mean that she treats you as a member of her generation?”

When Old Master Zhou said that, Zhou Lin felt hopeful.

“Besides, even if she doesn’t have any interest in you at worst, you’ll definitely be able to use his charisma to woo her, considering your outstanding personality!”

Fathers knew their sons best. Old Master Zhou saw the unnoticeable smile on Zhou Lin’s lips.

It seemed like he was likely to have a grandson this time.

Old Master Zhou hummed a tune as he returned to his room. He was thinking about what to give the Yun family as a betrothal gift. He needed to think about it carefully.

He wanted to make the engagement party lively and joyous.

Meanwhile, the Yun family’s eldest son seemed particularly miserable.

Yun Gang originally thought that he would be able to resume his position after sending gifts. However, his superior was a vengeful person and rejected his request to see him.

Moreover, Yun Gang was not the only one trying to secure his current position. There were a lot of people taking advantage of the gap in his suspension to send gifts to the superior. They all wanted to get rid of their status as ordinary people and become officials.

Moreover, even if the superior was willing to see Yun Gang, the amount of money he had would not help.

1000 yuan might not even be enough to cover some of the gifts given to the higher-ups.

Finally, after a fierce ‘price competition’, a brand new face appeared on the chair.

Yun Gang was fired!

Without the salary, he could only find another way to survive..
