Chapter 319: Chapter 319: Make Sure They Get Married

"What’s wrong?" He Ye asked.

Cheng Zhiwei shook her head, smiling, "Let’s go back too."

He Ye glanced at the time and said simply, "It’s still early, shall we go for a stroll? My sister said she wants to buy you a gift."

Cheng Zhiwei really didn’t want the gift, so she said with some helplessness, "I finally have a day off today, and I want to go back and spend time with Yangyang and Xingxing, sorry."

"You don’t like her?" He Ye could tell.

Cheng Zhiwei was silent for a few seconds before choosing to speak the diplomatic truth, "I think it’s better for us to keep an appropriate distance."

"Then let’s not buy it," He Ye said casually. He thought Cheng Zhiwei knew about those past events and had a bad impression of He Mingzhu. He did not insist that Cheng Zhiwei must accept the He family, as his relationship with the He family was just so-so.

Meanwhile, Yu Shuhua looked at the jewelry laid out before her, her face looking very ugly.

The secretary stood by, speaking slowly, "The young miss said she knows you’ve been wronged, but Cheng Zhiwei must marry He Ye."

Yu Shuhua clenched her fists, her voice tinged with resentment, "She wants to cooperate with Zhou Group, then she should rely on her own abilities. How can she sacrifice my son’s happiness like this? I know she doesn’t like me, but Xiao Ye is her own little brother,"

She was actually making He Ye marry a woman who had already been married.

How could Cheng Zhiwei possibly be worthy of her outstanding son?

"Once the young miss’s matters are settled, how to deal with Cheng Zhiwei will be up to you to decide, and the young miss won’t intervene. But at this stage, it’s imperative that they marry," the secretary repeated, with a commanding tone.

The secretary left after delivering the message.

Yu Shuhua felt a lump in her throat, unable to swallow or spit it out, feeling extremely uncomfortable, with a headache as if her head was about to explode.

...

When Cheng Zhiwei arrived home in the afternoon, Guo Cuihua greeted her with a beaming smile, "Did He Ye send you back? Why didn’t you invite him in for a sit?"

Guo Cuihua had a very good impression of He Ye, and if Cheng Zhiwei truly decided to find another half, He Ye would be a fine choice.

Cheng Zhiwei paused for a few seconds, then smiled nonchalantly, "He’s very busy."

Guo Cuihua picked up on the strange note in her words and asked cautiously, "Did you two have a fight?"

"No, it’s just that I feel that he and I probably won’t last long," Cheng Zhiwei knew in her heart.

Yu Shuhua didn’t like her, and as for He Mingzhu, although she approved of them being together, it was for the sake of Zhou Lin.

Although she didn’t know what He Mingzhu really wanted to do, any mention of Zhou Lin made Cheng Zhiwei feel irritable all over.

"What’s wrong with He Ye? Does he have a childhood sweetheart or a close female friend?" Guo Cuihua asked. If there were such issues, then indeed it was not suitable for them to be together.

"It’s not his issue. The senior is a very good person..." Cheng Zhiwei sighed, chopping off the conversation, "We’ll talk about it when the time comes."

It wasn’t He Ye’s issue, it must be an issue with his family.

Guo Cuihua knew that divorce plus a child was Cheng Zhiwei’s hurdle, which most families wouldn’t easily accept.

She sighed inwardly; though Cheng Zhiwei’s attitude was that having a compatible boyfriend was enough, whether to marry or not, she didn’t insist. But what mother wouldn’t hope for her daughter’s happiness?

One Cheng Zhiwei, another Cheng Zhiyin, both were pains in her heart.

"By the way, your Aunt Wang mentioned introducing a boyfriend to your sister. When you have time, accompany your sister to meet him," Guo Cuihua remembered an important matter and reminded Cheng Zhiwei.

"Boyfriend?" Cheng Zhiwei was startled, "Sister won’t agree."

Unlike Zhiwei’s thoughts, Zhiyin was heartbroken by Gao Wei and had encountered the peculiarities of her eldest aunt’s family. Having completely lost faith in men and with her own physical condition being unable to conceive, she no longer accepted any matchmaking proposals.

She even kept a certain distance from men.

She would not agree to matchmaking.

"I know she won’t agree, which is why I want you to make up an excuse to get her out," Guo Cuihua felt as if her hair would turn white from worry. Although it is now touted that one can stay single to old age, in Guo Cuihua’s opinion, if one could meet a good person, there was no need to refuse marriage.

"If she had a child, I wouldn’t say anything, at least she’d have companionship and someone to care for her when she’s old, but with her situation... not having anyone by her side when she gets old, just thinking about it makes my heart ache."

"But..."

"I know you want to say she has Cheng Yang and Cheng Xing, but you know your sister’s character; she is not the type to trouble others," Guo Cuihua clasped Zhiwei’s hand, almost pleadingly, "Zhiwei, just think of it as helping your mom out, just go for a meal, whether it works out or not is up to them."

"Does the man know about the sister’s condition?" Zhiwei asked, not wanting her sister to go and be looked down upon.

"He knows, he knows, don’t worry, I’ve made it clear," Guo Cuihua was overjoyed, "Aunt Wang is a reliable person, and you’ll be there to ensure everything goes well. If the situation doesn’t look right, just take your sister and leave."

"Alright then," Zhiwei agreed, "Let me know when the date is set."

"I’ll ask Aunt Wang later to see when she’s free, and you should mention it to Zhiyin too."

"Hmm."

And so, it was decided.

A few days later, claiming to have made plans with Zhiwei and Zhiyin to head out, when they were almost at the location, Zhiwei still couldn’t help but tell the truth.

Naturally, Zhiyin refused to go. Zhiwei pressed, "I understand how you feel, but I think meeting him won’t hurt; it’s not like you have to agree to anything right now, it’s just about making a new friend."

Zhiyin glared at her in anger, "Even you’ve lied to me."

"You know how mom is, she’ll hide away and cry if you don’t go."

Zhiyin was instantly at a loss for words. She was gentle by nature, but not someone who fusses unnecessarily. Since she was already there, she begrudgingly agreed to go.

It was still their parents’ goodwill, after all.

Once they arrived at the restaurant, Aunt Wang was already there. Seeing the two sisters, her face lit up, "It’s been so long, you both are getting prettier. Have a seat for a moment, Huo Xuan is stuck in traffic."

Stuck in traffic, so he was delayed.

Zhiyin’s first impression was not very good, but she didn’t show it. She simply said, "No problem."

After chatting for about fifteen minutes, when Zhiyin felt there was no point in waiting any longer, the matchmaking prospect finally arrived.

Aunt Wang enthusiastically introduced Huo Xuan and the man besides him, Zhou Lin.

Zhiwei had thought that with Yucheng being small, she would run into Zhou Lin eventually but hadn’t expected that this encounter would come so frequently.

Fortunately, Zhou Lin’s gaze only lingered on her for a moment before moving away.

Zhiyin didn’t even glance at her matchmaking partner; her first look was also at Zhou Lin. She peered at Zhiwei worriedly, but saw that Zhiwei’s expression was as usual, very stable in mood.

Huo Xuan, wearing glasses and looking handsome, opened with a smile, "Sorry for the wait."

That voice?

Zhiyin suddenly looked over, exclaiming in astonishment, "It’s you?"
