"You kid, why aren't you in a hurry? It's time for you to find a good girl. If you don't find a good girl while you're young, when are you going to wait? By the time you want to find a good girl, all the good girls have been picked out.

."

"I know!" Yan Shaozhuang looked helpless.

Zhou Zhichu was beside him, with a smile on his face and didn't say a word.

After meeting the elders of the Yan family, Yan Shaozhuang took Zhou Zhichu to his bedroom and put away his luggage: "Every time you come here, you are pestered by a bunch of people. I know you are annoyed, but I have no choice but to wrong you.

"

Zhou Zhichu smiled and sat down on the sofa, "What's the grievance for? You didn't even mention it when you went to Jiugu Wenchang."

"That's different." Yan Shaozhuang said casually, "Jiugu Wenchang gives me a chance, what can the Yan family give you?"

Zhou Zhichu leaned back and stared at him without saying a word.

Yan Shaozhuang went to the bar: "What would you like to drink? Don't drink tea and coffee at night, otherwise you won't be able to sleep."

He poured white water for Zhou Zhichu.

Zhou Zhichu held the cup and asked, "Whose is it?"

Yan Shaozhuang took a sip of water and replied: "Cup? Mine is from before."

Zhou Zhichu walked in front of the big cabinet and looked at the photos placed on the cabinet. His eyes fell on one of the photos of Yan Shaozhuang when he was a boy. He looked about fifteen or sixteen years old, and he was in the prime of his youth.

"What are you doing?" Yan Shaozhuang couldn't help but ask when he saw him standing in front of the cabinet in a daze.

Zhou Zhichu looked back at him: "You seem to be in a good mood at this time, more relaxed than you look now."

Yan Shaozhuang paused, "My father was still alive at that time."

Zhou Zhichu said nothing. He knew that Yan Shaozhuang's father died of illness and his sister committed suicide due to depression. He rarely mentioned this topic for fear of touching his sadness.

This time he said it accidentally and casually.

Yan Shaozhuang sat down and asked, "How is Jiugu Wenchang doing recently? Nothing else happened?"

Zhou Zhichu looked back at him: "What do you hope will happen?"

Yan Shaozhuang glanced at him: "You said during the Chinese New Year that the old man was a little dissatisfied with Xiao Ran. I was worried about this..."

Zhou Zhichu chuckled softly: "The New Year has just passed, and the old man doesn't have that much thought. Even if he does, it will have to wait until he is free. Shaozhuang, I found that you pay too much attention to He Xiaoran.

Does she have other ideas?"

Yan Shaozhuang rolled his eyes at him: "I'm overthinking it. I hope she will be well, live a happy and healthy life, and live a harmonious and beautiful life with her two sisters. That's my wish."

Zhou Zhichu looked at him with his hand on his chin: "Your wish is not to wish your mother good health and a successful career, but to bless an outsider?"

Yan Shaozhuang shook his head, "You won't understand. In addition to love, there are many feelings worth having in this world."

"For example, you and He Xiaoran?"

Yan Shaozhuang nodded: "Yes."

"What about you?" Zhou Zhichu looked curious.

"Same." Yan Shaozhuang said, how does He Xiaoran feel about him?

Yan Shaozhuang knew that at first, the girl was still young and she must have been a novelty to him at that time. Later, when she grew up and had the consciousness of a girl, she knew that she should have a crush on her when she was shy. And then Xiaoxue left.

After that, her mood completely changed.

They never met again, but Yan Shaozhuang knew that he, like He Xiaoran, cared about each other because of Xiaoxue.

Yan Shaozhuang knows better than anyone how important Xiaoxue is to Xiaoran. Apart from her two younger sisters, it is the best friend she has ever made. The kind of friendship established between little girls is profound and delicate. They both love each other.

We are trying to protect each other and hope that the other person will be happy.

How can outsiders understand this kind of feeling?

For Yan Shaozhuang, the person who understands Xiaoxue best in the world is Xiaoran. It is a friendship that only girls can experience.

Xiaoxue left, and Yan Shaozhuang could only see the other side of Xiaoxue in Xiaoran. That was the cheerful side that she had never shown in front of her mother and her. Only when she was with Xiaoran could she smile so unbridled, so brilliantly and movingly.

…

Yan Shaozhuang knew that no matter what he said, Zhou Zhichu would not understand.

The brothers of the Zhou family are not independent and compete with each other. The best way to get along is not to interfere with each other, but more often to be wary of each other.

Except for a few of them, Zhou Zhichu had no close friends at all. He lived a cautious and cautious life. Even the helpers at home were twin deaf-mute brothers. For Zhou Zhichu, only such a pair of brothers would not

Talking nonsense behind his back will not let his privacy be leaked.

How could Zhou Zhichu understand his feelings for Xiao Ran?

"Do you think I can't understand your thoughts?" Zhou Zhichu asked looking at Yan Shaozhuang's expression.

Yan Shaozhuang smiled: "I don't think you can understand my feelings towards Xiao Ran."

"Stop mentioning her all the time." Zhou Zhichu said with a smile: "Every time you say He Xiaoran's name, there is always an excessive intimacy in your tone. Maybe even you can't notice it yourself."

Yan Shaozhuang sighed: "I really didn't pay attention. Forget it, I won't mention it."

Zhou Zhichu looked at his watch: "Do you know what day it is today?"

Yan Shaozhuang was confused: "What day?"

It doesn’t seem like a day in my mind.

"how?"

"Today is the Valentine's Day that young people like to celebrate." Zhou Zhichu said with a smile: "I have never celebrated this holiday since I was a child. I am very curious how young people today celebrate it."

Yan Shaozhuang raised his eyebrows: "You didn't spend Valentine's Day with your girlfriend when you were in school? Didn't you go to school abroad?"

There is still a smile on Zhou Zhichu's face. He looks good and has a cool temperament. When he smiles, he always has a fairy air: "No. On the way to pick you up, I saw many places outside.

They all have Valentine’s Day signs hanging on them, and I’m just curious about how they spend Valentine’s Day. Do you know?”

Yan Shaozhuang smiled and said, "I really know."

Zhou Zhichu raised his eyebrows: "Oh?"

"When I was studying in college abroad, there was a Chinese international student who was sick and returned to China on vacation. The day before returning to China was Valentine's Day, and I spent it with her," Yan Shaozhuang said.

Zhou Zhichu stared at his face: "Where is that person?"

Yan Shaozhuang looked at him and said, "He passed away. He was diagnosed with terminal cancer during a physical examination abroad. The cost of domestic treatment was low, so he returned to China for treatment. After half a year, he passed away."

"Is your relationship over?"

Yan Shaozhuang laughed: "It's not a relationship, at best it's a date."

Zhou Zhichu lowered his head and thought for a while, then suddenly said: "Watch a movie with me."

"I?"

"Um."

"Should you make an appointment with Miss Huai's family?" Yan Shaozhuang asked with a smile.
