1296 Zhou Yunjie (4)
“Yes, but this is different.” Zhou Yunbo was anxious.
Thinking about it, Zhou Yunbo’s forehead was full of frown lines.
“How so? You don’t want your child to be close to me?” Zhou Yunjie raised his eyes and asked Zhou Yunbo.
“Of course not! I didn’t mean that.”

“It’s good that you didn’t mean that,” Zhou Yunjie said and poured himself a glass of red wine. “Yunbo, I know what you’re worried about, but I really don’t need such things.” He held the wine glass and looked into the distance.
His eyes were filled with something that only he understood.
When Zhou Yunbo saw the expression on his brother’s face, he knew that no matter what he said, it would be useless.
He couldn’t help but sigh. Every year, when it was just the two of them, he would mention this matter. And every time, he would fail to convince his brother.
He understood what his brother was thinking.
However, he did not want his brother to suffer too much. He did not want his brother to be alone for the rest of his life. He did not want his brother to not even have someone to warm his bed with.

After Zhou Yunbo’s brother’s plan did not work, he thought that he had to be the one to solve the problem. He set his mind on his little miss.
He took advantage of the time when his brother was out on an errand to find Chen Meng’er.
Chen Meng’er looked at Zhou Yunbo, who was sitting opposite her. He seemed anxious.
“Yunbo, why are you looking for me?” Chen Meng’er went straight to the point.
With Zhou Yunbo, Chen Meng’er knew that sometimes he would not be able to turn the corner.
“Yes, Little Miss. I came to look for you today because of something.” Zhou Yunbo raised his head and looked at Chen Meng’er with a serious face.
“Go on.”
“Little Miss, can you help persuade my brother to find a partner? He is middle-aged and is still alone. I don’t want him to be alone for the rest of his life,” Zhou Yunbo said.
Zhou Yunbo looked at Chen Meng’er’s face that had suddenly lost its smile, then, he said, “Little Miss, I know that I shouldn’t have come to look for you because of my brother’s matter, but I really have no other choice. You also know that my brother doesn’t listen to us when we speak. If you come forward to persuade my brother, my brother will definitely listen.”
Chen Meng’er shook her head when she saw Zhou Yunbo’s hopeful expression. “Yunbo, I can’t agree to this.”
“Little Miss, why?” Zhou Yunbo looked at Chen Meng’er in confusion and asked, “My brother listens to you, Little Miss.”
“It’s because Yunjie listens to me that I can’t help you.” Chen Meng’er closed her eyes. She looked up at Zhou Yunbo after a few seconds. “Yunbo, I’m sorry. I can’t help you. If I ask him, he’ll definitely listen. However, it won’t be his choice. Do you think he will be happy?”
“But…” Zhou Yunbo knew that what Chen Meng’er said was right. However, if his brother didn’t get married, there would be no future for him.
“I’m sorry, Yunbo. I’ve already let your brother down enough. I don’t want to let him have an unhappy marriage because of me.” In this life, the person that Chen Meng’er had let down the most was Zhou Yunjie.
Although Yuwen Jing had been trying to persuade her that there was no one right or wrong in terms of love, she had always thought that it was all her fault. If she had discovered Zhou Yunjie’s different feelings for her earlier, she would have nipped them in the bud.
“Yunbo, you should go. I won’t help you with this matter.”
After Zhou Yunbo left, Chen Meng’er sat there alone and stared blankly for a long time.
It was not until Yuwen Jing came back that she was pulled back from her own thoughts.
The moment Yuwen Jing came back, he felt that something was wrong with Chen Meng’er today. “Meng’er, what’s wrong? What happened?”
“Jing, is it my fault that Yunjie has been single until now?” Chen Meng’er’s mood was extremely low as she sank into self-blame.
“What nonsense are you thinking? How is this your fault?” Yuwen Jing frowned. “Did someone say something to you today? I heard that Zhou Yunbo came to look for you today. That kid is talking nonsense again.”
Yuwen Jing knew that Zhou Yunbo never knew when to shut up.
“No, Yunbo just wants me to persuade Yunjie to find someone to get married to and have children. However, I rejected him. I knew that if I opened my mouth, Yunjie would definitely find a random partner to marry. I didn’t want that, so I rejected him. However, I know that Yunbo’s worries weren’t weird at all. Everyone has their own family and their own children. Yunjie is the only one who is alone.” Chen Meng’er frowned.
“Don’t worry. There will always be a solution.” Yuwen Jing could not see Chen Meng’er’s expression. He went forward and hugged Chen Meng’er. He reached out and patted her shoulder to comfort her.
The solution that Yuwen Jing gave in the end was to let their two sons acknowledge Zhou Yunjie as their godfather. When Yuwen Jing’s suggestion was aired, Chen Meng’er almost clapped her hands in approval.
Why didn’t she think of that?
Chen Meng’er called her sons back and Liu Xiyi also came back out of curiosity.
“Dad, Mom, you two are really mean. You only called your two sons back and threw your daughter to the side. Sigh, I have to find my great-grandparents and have a good chat with them later,” Liu Xiyi said as she returned. She looked at her parents with an aggrieved expression.
“You brat, you only know how to play tricks. I didn’t call your two brothers back for fun, but for serious business.”
