"It's just a polite name. Her brother has to call me brother when he sees me."

Su Yuanyuan said indifferently, "Oh~ You also know her brother~"

Xu Jianli paused slightly.

"Well, of course I know him. Mainly because Grandpa has a good relationship with Grandpa Zhou, and our dad and their dad grew up together."

"So... you and those two siblings must have grown up together, right?"

Su Yuanyuan looked calm and spoke in a calm tone, but for some reason she gave Xu Jianli a feeling that something was going to happen.

Xu Jianli denied it almost immediately, "No, it's really not true. Uncle Zhou's family is in Feng City, and our family is in Qinghe. Our two families are far away from each other, and we only see each other a few times a year."

"Eh... so you were a soldier in Feng City..."

"No way! Yuanyuan, you know I only have a few days off throughout the year..."

Su Yuanyuan lowered her head and secretly curled her lips where Xu Jianli couldn't see.

Although she was jealous, it was just a little bit of possessiveness. Rationally, she absolutely understood Xu Jianli.

Xu Jianli would not lie to her. If he said they were not familiar with each other and had only met a few times, it must be true that they had only met a few times.

However, seeing how nervous Xu Jianli was, she suddenly felt like teasing this guy.

He raised his head again and continued to look stern.

"Who asked you that? I mean, Zhou Jieyu's family is in Feng City, how come you happened to come to Feng City to serve in the army? Is it really such a coincidence, or..."

Xu Jianli's forehead was gradually sweating...

It's over. Why is this getting more complicated the more I explain it?

"I was assigned here randomly...really, I..."

Before he could continue speaking, Su Yuanyuan suddenly looked at him suspiciously again.

"That's not right, Xu Jianli. Why are you so nervous when we're just talking about such a small matter? There can't be anything serious here..."

Xu Jianli: “…”

"Clap!"

A drop of sweat slid down his forehead and dripped onto the collar of his shirt.

Speaking of the things in this, he really wasn't honest at all...

It’s not that he concealed the truth out of guilt, but mainly because he was afraid that Su Yuanyuan would be unhappy after hearing it.

He felt that they were all irrelevant people, so there was no need to tell Su Yuanyuan...

But at this moment, he felt that he had no choice but to say it.

What if his wife really gets suspicious and goes to Zhou Jieyu to ask about something serious? If he keeps it secret, wouldn't that be bad?

Everything was fine originally, but now something went wrong.

Xu Jianli spoke carefully, "Yuanyuan, I have something to tell you, don't be angry."

Su Yuanyuan paused as she held the chopsticks in her hand reaching for the lunch box.

Um? ?

Xu Jianli continued silently, "I really have nothing to do with Zhou Jieyu, but Zhou Jieyu has a sister..."

When Su Yuanyuan heard this beginning, her brows furrowed and she immediately had a bad feeling.

Wow, there is really a story behind this!

For a moment, she had no appetite for her meal. She put down her chopsticks and stared at Xu Jianli, waiting for his next words.

Seeing Su Yuanyuan being so serious, Xu Jianli quickly emphasized, "Yuanyuan, please don't misunderstand. I have nothing to do with her sister."

Hmm? No involvement?

Su Yuanyuan's tense nerves suddenly relaxed and she glanced at Xu Jianli speechlessly.

I have nothing to say here...

Xu Jianli then added, "If there is any connection, it is only one-sided from her sister's side."

Su Yuanyuan: “…”

Su Yuanyuan was already a little angry as she raised her breath and released it again.

"No, Xu Jianli, when did you develop the habit of panting when you speak? What's going on here? Hurry up and tell me the truth!"

"Then I said, you can't be angry..."

Su Yuanyuan played a tyrannical and overbearing role, "If you don't want me to be angry, don't talk about conditions, just tell the truth!"

Seeing that she was on the verge of getting angry, Xu Jianli didn't dare to hide it anymore.

"It's Zhou Jieyu's sister... Zhou Qingxue. She once declared to her family that... in this life... she would not marry anyone else..."

After explaining the matter with difficulty, Xu Jianli carefully checked Su Yuanyuan's face and then quickly distanced himself from the matter.

"But I never agreed, really! I never thought about marrying her! I see her less often than I see her sister. You can ask Zheng Fei and the others. Every time she comes, I tell them I'm not here."

He didn't lie. He and Zhou Jieyu had only met a few times, and he had met Zhou Qingxue even less often.

The reason why Zhou Jieyu always called him "Brother Jianli" so casually was that she actually regarded him as her future brother-in-law.

This time the name is probably just out of habit.

He saw clearly that after he said he was there to bring food to his wife, the girl's expression changed visibly.

I guess he must be upset for calling him brother again...

Su Yuanyuan never expected that her spur of the moment trick would actually lead to some kind of story.

If you think carefully about the relationship between the Xu and Zhou families, if she hadn't interfered, maybe in the end, Xu Jianli's wife would really be Zhou Qingxue...

Su Yuanyuan touched her nose, and for a moment, she didn't know whether she should be unhappy about this or feel guilty.

She asked Xu Jianli, "What about now? You're married now. She shouldn't miss you anymore, right?"

Xu Jianli hesitated for a moment, and Su Yuanyuan immediately understood.

Good guy, still thinking about it.

In other words, at this moment, somewhere, there is a woman who is thinking about snatching Xu Jianli away? ?

In this way, Su Yuanyuan instantly forgot about whether she was happy or guilty.

Her nervous excitement level soared, and she suddenly became excited and prepared for battle.

"Wait, you said 'she comes to see you every time'... so during the time we were married, did she also come to see you?"

Xu Jianli had a stiff expression and was about to speak when Su Yuanyuan simply waved her hand.

"Okay, you don't have to say it, I already know it."

"Yuanyuan, then you..."

Are you not angry?

Before Xu Jianli could finish his question, Su Yuanyuan responded with another anticipatory response, "Okay, you don't have to ask anymore. I'm not angry!"

As she spoke, she picked up her chopsticks and started to eat again.

"You said you never thought of marrying her, so why should I be angry? Well, next time, if someone comes to the army to look for you, don't let them say you're gone."

"Please have someone notify me and I'll go see her."

"what?"

Seeing Su Yuanyuan's unprecedented excitement at this moment, Xu Jianli felt very nervous.

There's something wrong with my wife's condition.

It seems like he wants to fight with someone...

"Yuanyuan, why do you want to see her? She is just an irrelevant person..."

It's better not to meet him, in case a fight breaks out again...

The main thing is that my wife is still pregnant...

"No, no, no, she's not an irrelevant person. She's the one who's thinking about stealing my girl away."
