After the betrothal gift negotiation collapsed, I turned around and married a wealthy man.

He Fen turned around suddenly, "Who did you say left? Bai Yi? Where did she go?"

"Xiao Ye said that he is going back to his previous place of work. It is not certain when he will come back. He Fen, look at this girl and Xiao Ye, they are about the same age, but a girl has to work harder than a man to achieve this. It’s already very difficult, don’t make things difficult for her anymore.”

He Fen didn't know what she was thinking about, and didn't listen to Wang Yue's words at all.

At Wang Ye's place, life seems to have gradually become dull since Bai Yi went to the branch.

In addition to picking up Linlin every day, I just wander around the store. It’s the weekend, so I take Linlin out for a walk, or ride an electric bike around to see if there is a suitable place. I will wait for the second half of the year. , considering opening a new store.

And He Fen didn't know if he was persuaded by Wang Yue's words in the hospital that day. He didn't ask Wang Ye to talk about the child, and he didn't ask him to go back every now and then.

Those few days were like a breath of spring breeze for Wang Ye, and he felt that he had something to look forward to every day.

But Wang Ye didn't know that the calmer the day, the easier it is to be broken.

……

On the weekend, Zhou Hui received a call from her parents asking her to go home for dinner.

Zhou Hui's parents have reached retirement age.

The couple worked very hard when they were young and accumulated a strong family fortune for the Zhou family.

Last year, the couple retired from the front line and slowly adapted to retirement life. Now the Zhou family only has one or two small businesses operating.

When Zhou Hui and He Fen said that she bought a house in Furuijiayuan, it was true.

But she didn't just give a down payment. The Zhou family and the house she lived in were all in Furuijiayuan.

Furui is one of the best villa communities in Chongqing. Zhou Hui has bought a house here for several years, and Zhou Hui's parents only moved in last year.

Although they live in the same community, the two houses are far apart.

One is at this end of the community and the other is at the other end of the community.

Therefore, Zhou Hui goes home only a handful of times a month.

She usually only goes back when her parents call her.

"Hui Hui is back."

As soon as Zhou Hui entered the door, she heard Zhou's mother's joyful voice.

She was wearing a peony embroidered cheongsam with a shawl on her shoulders, looking dignified and generous.

"mom."

Zhou Hui said hello to Zhou's mother while changing her shoes.

"The food is ready, wash your hands and eat."

"Okay." Zhou Hui looked past Zhou's mother and looked at Zhou's father who was sitting on the sofa reading the newspaper, "Dad."

Father Zhou nodded in response, then put away the newspaper in his hand and stood up, "Let's eat."

Although the Zhou family is not a wealthy family, they have had family rules since childhood.

Eat without talking and sleep without talking.

So every time we eat, even if we are a family, the atmosphere at the dinner table is stuffy.

This is also the reason why Zhou Hui has not liked to eat at home since she was fifteen years old.

It wasn't until he was almost done eating that Father Zhou slowly spoke, breaking the strange silence.

"What is your brother busy with? I heard that he has been traveling between Chongqing and Haishi recently?"

Zhou Hui has rarely contacted her family since she started working.

Not to mention Zhou Yi.

The last phone call between her and Zhou Yi was last month.

That meeting in the hospital was purely accidental.

Even Zhou's father didn't know what Zhou Yi was busy with, and how could Zhou Hui know.

However, Zhou Hui suddenly remembered that when she was chatting with He Fen before, she accidentally learned from He Fen that Bai Yi's place of work seemed to be in Haishi.

Running on both sides, it probably has something to do with Bai Yi.

Zhou Hui didn't say it directly, but pretended not to know, "I don't know, maybe I'm in love."

Zhou's father's eyebrows suddenly frowned, and Zhou's mother's eyes lit up.

Zhou Yi is almost thirty this year, but he has always been single and has no plans to get married. Every time he urges him, he just excuses himself by saying he is too busy at work.

Father Zhou and Mother Zhou also saw it and were anxious in their hearts.

So when she heard Zhou Hui's words, Zhou's mother couldn't wait to ask, "Really? Which family's child is it? Have you seen it?"

Zhou Hui shook her head, "I guess, but it might be because of the case that they ran in both directions."

Father Zhou snorted coldly, "How big of a case can his law firm in Yucheng have, running to the sea market all the time, slacking off his work for a woman, even if he is in love, how can he be a serious girl!"

Zhou's mother looked at him complainingly, "You haven't even seen her before, so why are you saying that she's not serious? You should change your temper. Look at the two children. It's because of you that they are too scared to fall in love. Ah Yi is almost thirty and has never even been in a serious relationship."

Zhou Hui remained silent and didn't speak.

In fact, compared with Zhou's father, Zhou's mother has stricter control.

When she and Zhou Yi entered adolescence, she explicitly prohibited them from falling in love early, and they were required to keep a distance between opposite sexes. They had to go home before ten o'clock, and they needed to report anywhere they went, and it could not exceed four hours.

Under the influence of the environment, some rules gradually become habits.

When Zhou Hui was in college, at the instigation of her roommate, she secretly pursued a pretty good-looking senior in the same department.

But somehow Zhou's mother found out about this, so she kept Zhou Hui at home for three whole days.

From then on, until she graduated from college, Zhou Hui felt that it was a sin to even like her, let alone fall in love.

Later, after the two started working, Zhou's father and Zhou's mother may have been influenced by the people around them, or they may have figured it out on their own and became less paranoid when it came to dating.

But Zhou Hui no longer had the intention to fall in love. Zhou Yi did, but the girl was too pretentious and Zhou Yi had no love experience. Zhou Yi was troubled for a month. Later, Zhou Yi couldn't bear it anymore and broke up with her.

Who knew that after the breakup, the girl went even crazier, cutting her wrists and swallowing sleeping pills, and was sent to the hospital several times.

From then on, Zhou Yi also had a psychological shadow, and the opposite sex rarely appeared around him.

So when Zhou Hui heard what Zhou's mother said, she didn't feel happy, only sarcastic.

Zhou's mother did not notice Zhou Hui's emotions, but carefully warned her, "Hui Hui, if you see that your brother is really in love, tell him to take him home and show it to me and your dad. As long as the girl has good conduct, we don't care if the family is good or not."

Zhou Hui didn't know what she was thinking of, and asked suddenly, "You don't mind if you get divorced?"

This question stopped Zhou's mother.

Father Zhou frowned displeased, "What nonsense! How could your brother marry a divorced woman!"

Zhou Hui thought to herself, who knows.

She was quite curious, if Zhou Yi really insisted on marrying such a person one day, would they agree.

Zhou's mother also advised Zhou Hui, "Yes, Huihui, don't talk nonsense. Your brother's conditions are not bad. Even if his family background is not that good, a divorced woman is determined not to be good. If this spreads out, she will be laughed at." "
