delayed love

Chapter 143 Are You Here To Announce The Good News?
Lin Xi's words directly blocked what Old Master Cheng hadn't said yet.

Old Master Cheng stared at her dully for a while, and finally let out a long breath.

"Don't blame grandpa, Xixi, I'm worried about your fourth brother right now..."

Lin Xi is not good at comforting others, but fortunately Zhou Jingheng is here.

After appeasing the old man, Lin Xi slowly opened his mouth, "Actually, fourth brother also has his own plans."

It was only in the afternoon that she promised her eldest aunt not to intervene. Lin Xi understood the reason, but at this time, she still couldn't help it.

"I know, I know everything." Mr. Cheng looked at the ceiling, seeming sad too. "I don't want to force him like this."

"But after a fall the year before last, my body is getting worse day by day. You don't need to comfort me, I know my own body best."

"I feel like I'm trying to hold on now. My only wish is to see Cheng Sicheng's family well."

"I hope there will be someone who can accompany him in the future. I am really worried that he will always be alone."

"I also know that I should find someone he likes. But in the past few years, he hasn't given any thought to this matter. I don't know whether it's a good thing for him to do so."

In this circle, people of Cheng Si's age have mostly colorful private lives.

Only Cheng Si and the others seemed to come out of a monk's temple.

Cheng Si was the only one who was taller than the short ones, and had ever been in a relationship.It's just a puppy love, and it happened many years ago.

So one can imagine how anxious Mr. Cheng was.

"Of course I know that he doesn't like me to introduce him, but he doesn't talk about it himself, and he is not in a hurry at all. I really have no choice."

How many times have I communicated in private, but Cheng Si always expresses that he is not in a hurry, and always uses work as an excuse to prevaricate him.

"Xixi, Grandpa really likes you. That's why I came up with this idea. Don't mind, Grandpa has no other intentions. It's best if you like it, and it doesn't matter if you don't." Old Master Cheng patted her hand.

"Grandpa didn't want to ask you at first. But the girl from the Su family... hey, don't mention it."

"I've heard." Lin Xi pursed her lips, struggled for a while before speaking: "This kind of thing really can't be rushed. In this way, I will help Fourth Brother to pay attention first, in case there is a suitable one."

"As for the Su family, the fourth brother probably doesn't like it very much either. You can put this matter aside first."

"Yes." Zhou Jingheng persuaded: "Take care of your body first, and we will take care of the rest. No one can say anything about feelings."

"Maybe Cheng Si will meet someone he likes tomorrow. Love at first sight is also possible."

Compared with the long-term love of marriage, he thinks Cheng Si's temperament is more reasonable than love at first sight.

"I hope." Mr. Cheng also had nothing to do, "I don't ask for a good family right now, as long as the family background is clean and the girl is kind. It's best...he likes it too."

"Just follow him."

"Xixi, Jingheng..." Old Master Cheng stopped them both.

"Here we are, you say."

Zhou Jingheng leaned forward.

"Grandpa would like to ask you for a favor... When I'm gone, you must continue to keep in touch with Cheng Si. Those friends outside of him are out of touch. With you by his side, Grandpa can rest assured."

"Everything must be fine."

-

The two came out of Cheng's house, and when they were about to reach Lin's house, they bumped into Bai Xu who was trotting out.

"Are you done?" Zhou Jingheng asked with a smile.

"Yeah." Bai Xu originally said he would be back in the evening, but he didn't finish his work until after dinner.

He glanced at the two of them, "What did Grandpa Cheng say?"

"You can guess it." Lin Xi shrugged.

Bai Xu had indeed guessed that Lin Xi was about to leave, so he grabbed her.

"?" Lin Xi looked up, "Let's talk about it when we go back."

It was windy at night, she was dressed thinly and didn't want to stay outside for too long.

"I'm afraid you won't be able to wait until you go back to hear about it."

"..." Lin Xi frowned, "Why do you sound like you are cursing me?"

No matter how awkward it sounds, it's weird, and it doesn't seem like a good word.

Zhou Jingheng chose to avoid, "I'll go back first."

"Second brother." Bai Xu hurriedly stopped him, "You can't leave. This matter has something to do with you."

Zhou Jingheng: "..."

"I went to your house just now." Bai Xu said to Lin Xi: "As soon as I entered the door, I heard them talking about you and my second brother at Cheng's house. I listened for a while, and then called Cheng Si."

"Then?" Lin Xi frowned.

"Cheng Si is busy. I called the third brother. The third brother said that Cheng Si was on the phone with Mr. Cheng."

"From Cheng Si's report, the old man really hopes that you and Cheng Si will develop."

After saying that, Bai Xu carefully observed the faces of the two people opposite him, and now he was sure, "This is really the case?"

Lin Xi nodded without shy away.

"It was offered, but I declined."

"Then you're done."

"what?"

"At that time, Mr. Cheng didn't seem to have said that you refused. The third brother seems to have misunderstood."

"..." Lin Xi choked, "This, what is there to misunderstand."

"Hiss." Bai Xu calculated carefully, "At this time, Cheng Si should already be being beaten."

"..."

He continued to make sarcastic remarks: "For so many years, I was the one beaten by my third brother, and today it's finally Cheng Si's turn."

Lin Xi and Zhou Jingheng: "..."

-

Back in the room, the first thing Lin Xi did was to call Qin Yu.

But after a moment of hesitation, she didn't know what to say.

In case, Bai Xu was lying to her, this kind of situation has happened many times before.

After thinking about it, she still called Cheng Si first.

I don't know if Cheng Si is really being beaten, and no one answered the phone for a while.

She calculated the time difference, Cheng Si and the others should still be in the morning.

She had no choice but to call Qin Yu.

The phone rang three times, but when no one answered, Lin Xi was about to hang up.

At this time, if no one answered, he should be busy with business.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the phone was taken away from the ear, there was a rustling sound on the phone, followed by Qin Yu's voice.

"Lin Xi."

"Uh." Lin Xi was stunned for a moment, her mind went blank for a moment, and she hurriedly said, "It's me. Are the third and fourth brothers busy? I didn't get through to the fourth brother."

"Well, in a meeting."

"That's it." Lin Xi was sure that Bai Xu was talking nonsense.

"then I will not bother you……"

The man's voice was low, and he interrupted her, "You called me just to make sure what Cheng Si was doing?"

"Yes..." Lin Xi choked up, let out a breath after two seconds, and corrected: "No."

"Find me?"

Lin Xi replied hesitantly, "Yes."

Qin Yu said in a pleasant voice, "Just came back from Cheng's house? Why, you also came to announce the good news to me?"
