Chapter 14: Harmony in Marriage or Partners in Crime?

  "Kindergarten!? I've never heard of it!" Xǔ Fēng was surprised. When he first learned that Xǔ Cǎi Yuè didn't get along with others, it was the kindergarten teacher who contacted him, saying that Little Moon had a stubborn personality and couldn't make friends at school. She hoped that he could spend more time with his daughter and guide her well. However, Zhōu Yún said that she had already met Xǔ Cǎi Yuè in kindergarten, which inevitably raised Xǔ Fēng's suspicions.

  "Hmm." Xǔ Cǎi Yuè sat down next to Zhōu Yún, explaining slowly and calmly: "I've known Xiǎo Yún since kindergarten. In elementary school, junior high school, and high school, we were in the same class. If Father doesn't believe me, he can dig out our childhood graduation photos - those are truly nostalgic..."

  "Oh...... is that so? Alright, alright......" Xu Feng was puzzled, as the two had been close since kindergarten, it was really hard to believe.

  Unexpectedly, Xu Caiyue had been hiding it so tightly that not a single rumor was leaked, and even let Xu Fengbai worry for nothing, misunderstanding his own daughter as not knowing how to make friends. But unexpectedly, Xu Caiyue had already chosen her target early on and was just teasing him.

  After chatting for a while, Zhang Xiaohong walked out of the kitchen: "Alright, alright, let's eat. Everyone stop talking first, you must be starving?"

  She had originally planned to prepare for a while, and make some delicious dishes to entertain Zhou Yun. Unfortunately, a clever woman can't cook without rice, the kitchen materials were limited, so Zhang Xiaohong could only make do with what she had.

  Since Xu Caiyue returned home, Zhu Zhiwen has been like an outsider, not saying a word. Everyone is focusing on Zhou Yun, which makes him very unhappy.

  According to Xu Feng, Xu Caiyue had no friends around her and hoped that they could get along well. At first, Zhu Zhiwen was delighted when he heard this and couldn't help but smile even in his sleep. But today, something went wrong, and halfway through, a Cheng Yaoguang suddenly appeared, claiming to be Xu Caiyue's childhood friend. This made him feel uneasy.

  However, when Zhusi Wen carefully looked at Zhou Yun, he couldn't help but curl his lip in a smile. A blue T-shirt, plus patched jeans, and on his feet were a pair of slippers from a street stall. Overall, he looked like some kind of lowlife hoodlum. This getup actually dared to compete with him for women? Don't be ridiculous.

  Zhu Zhiwen naively thought that Xu Caiyue would be with Zhou Yun together, because she had never been in contact with other boys. Otherwise, how could a fairy-like girl like her fall for someone like Zhou Yun who is so "unsophisticated"?

  He smoothed his collar and calmed down. A small figure like him couldn't stir up any big waves. As long as he was willing, he could get rid of Zhou Yun at any time.

  Zhū Zhìwén had just picked up his chopsticks when he turned to ask Zhou Yun, "Sir, might I inquire as to where your esteemed father is currently residing?"

  He deliberately made things difficult for Zhou Yun. From the sizing up just now, Zhu Zhiwen had already understood that Zhou Yun was unlikely to be a rich young master, and his father would not be a big shot with a good reputation. Otherwise, why would he dress like this to meet Xu Caiyue's parents?

  "My dad is a state-owned enterprise worker, what's wrong with that?" Zhou Yun had no reservations about this question and told the truth. To Zhou Yun, being a worker was not something to be ashamed of.

  Who would have thought that Zhì Zǐwén's expression was extremely solemn, and he actually apologized: "Sorry, I'm really sorry."

  This move obviously has a bit of disdain for people. At the same time, he also glanced at Xu Feng, wanting to see what expression he would have when he knew that Zhou Yun's father was just a worker.

  To everyone's surprise, Xu Feng seemed to be perfectly fine.

  To Xu Feng, what identity Zhou Yun's father has is not important. What's important is Zhou Yun's heart towards Xu Caiyue and the kind of person he is. A hero doesn't ask about one's origin, Xu Feng likes people who are capable and talented.

  It doesn't matter how much wealth you have, what matters is how much wealth you can create. This is Xu Feng's standard for selecting a successor.

  Zhou Yun wasn't a fool, and he immediately understood that this guy had no good intentions. He was actually setting him up. Was he someone who would take the loss? Obviously not. Seeing Zhiwen secretly laughing, Zhou Yun asked in a similar tone: "May I ask where Little Pig's father is now?"

  Upon hearing this question, Zhu Zhiwen immediately puffed out his chest and smiled: "Hehe, my father is the chairman of the board of directors of a large state-owned enterprise."

  His father is not an ordinary worker, look at Zhou Yun's outfit, I estimate his father's monthly income is not even higher than the Filipino maid they hired.

  "Oh! No, you're wrong." Zhou Yun immediately denied. He looked very serious, not like he was joking at all. Even Xu Feng and his wife couldn't understand why Zhou Yun would say something like that.

  "What's wrong? What's wrong?" Zhū Zhìwén was taken aback, his own father was in a high position, didn't he know that?

  Before Zhou Yun could speak, Xu Caiyue's mouth curled up into a sly smile, and she said in a low voice: "Of course, the father of the little pig is in a high position at the breeding farm. Such a simple question, Little Pig classmate actually guessed wrong. It really lives up to its name..."

  "Cai Yue is really clever, thumbs up!" Zhou Yun immediately gave Cai Yue a big thumbs up. The question he raised was still inspired by Cai Yue's sarcastic remarks to Zhu Zhiwen.

  Hurting others is indeed Xu Caiyue's strong suit. The little girl said bluntly, "Xiao Yun doesn't need to be polite, some people are just stupid."

  Zhū Zhìwén was indeed fooled this time. Zhōu Yún asked where the little pig's father had a high position, not where your respected father had a high position. As a result, this foolish person actually took his old man as the little pig's father.

  "YOU!!" Upon hearing this, Zhū Zhìwén's face turned bright red as he stared at Zhōu Yún. It was unclear whether it was embarrassment or anger, but the latter was probably more likely.

  If it were somewhere else, Zhu Zhiwen would definitely explode in anger and teach Zhou Yun a good lesson. However, in front of Xu Feng, he didn't dare to act rashly. In the end, he could only swallow his anger and secretly plot to find another opportunity for revenge.

  "Alright, alright, you two stop arguing. Let's eat quickly." Zhang Xiaohong saw that Xu Caizhen and Zhou Yun were so tacitly in agreement with each other, she couldn't help but feel secretly delighted in her heart. She wouldn't take sides with Zhou Yun, nor would she take sides with Zhu Zhiwen. In a mother's heart, as long as Xu Caizhen liked it, that was enough.

  As for Xu Feng, this old fox, he calmly maintained his neutrality and quietly ate his meal. Seeing two boys secretly competing for Xu Caiyue's attention, he was delighted to be unencumbered. At the same time, he thought to himself, it seems that his partner was right, with Xiao Yue looking so beautiful, how could she not have anyone pursuing her? It seems he had been overthinking things. The affairs of young people should be left for young people to deal with.

  After everyone finished eating, no one knew what was wrong with Zhū Zhìwén, and he actually invited Zhōu Yún and Xǔ Cǎi Yuè to go out and have fun. As for this proposal, Zhōu Yún flatly refused. A lot of things happened today, which exhausted him, and now he just wants to go home and rest early.

  However, something inexplicable happened. Xu Caiyue suddenly turned around and also agreed with Zhu Zhiwen's proposal, shouting that they should go out and play together. She even nodded in agreement with Zhou Yun: "The third year of high school is tense, it's rare to have a Sunday tomorrow, we should relax properly."

  This time Zhou Yun was confused, didn't Xu Caiyue dislike that guy? Why is she openly supporting him now?

  Actually, Xu Caiyue wasn't supporting Zhu Zhiwen. She wanted to take this opportunity to thoroughly disappoint him, so he wouldn't be like a tailgater annoying her every day. This was also the ultimate purpose of Xu Caiyue seeking help from Zhou Yun.

  Having obtained Xu Caiyue's promise, Zhu Zhiwen was over the moon. The little man who had achieved his goal glared at Zhou Yun with a look that seemed to declare his victory.

  Zhu Zhiwen's idea is exactly the opposite of Xu Caiyue, preparing to take this opportunity to show off in front of Xu Caiyue. Let her understand that Zhou Yun is just a country bumpkin, and he is the real white knight prince. Only by being with him can she experience the greatest pleasure in life.

  As a result, Zhu Zhiwen excitedly proposed that everyone go to the nearby Didi bar for some fun. Xu Caiyue had no objection to this. Zhou Yun also reluctantly agreed to accompany the beauty.

  After leaving Xu Caiyue's house, Zhou Yun has been thinking all the time. Today, he doesn't know what to do either, and he's busy like a dog. Now he still needs to go to the bar, it's better to say that he is being consumed rather than consuming himself.

  In the past, Zhou Yun was a hoodlum and had been to this bar several times. However, he didn't come to the bar to consume, but to find trouble with people. As for entertainment, he didn't have that kind of money.

  The wine in the bar is expensive, a few dozen yuan can be bought in the supermarket, but here it costs hundreds of dollars. Some people say that the bar has a good atmosphere, lively and passionate, with beautiful women constantly passing by. But for Zhou Yun, if you want to have an atmosphere, it's better to go to the internet cafe to listen to music. Looking at beautiful women, he is confident that the bar cannot meet beautiful girls like Xu Xuan and Xu Caiyue... even if there are, it's a once-in-a-lifetime encounter...
