Although the two of them had met many times and had dinner together several times, in fact, his familiarity with Zhou Chen was not as good as that of his parents.
His attitude towards Zhou Chen was not exactly warm, nor could Zhou Chen's attitude towards him be considered good. He could say hello every time they met, but not much more.
Huang Zhenhua felt that Zhou Chen had robbed his sister, and as Huang Yimei said, he had a tendency to hate the rich, or he just hated the 'rich' Zhou Chen.
He felt that if Zhou Chen wanted to be good to his sister, he should at least respect and please his elder brother, just like he did to his parents.
But who knew that Zhou Chen was not at all what he wanted, and his attitude towards him was quite cold, let alone flattering, so even after such a long time, the relationship between the two was still cold.
In fact, Huang Zhenhua didn't really want to take Zhou Chen with him today. Today was a good opportunity to promote his relationship with Bai Xiaohe. He felt that it was enough to take his sister Huang Yimei with him, and there was no need to take Zhou Chen with him.
But Huang Yimei had to bring her boyfriend with her, otherwise she wouldn't go. He had no choice but to compromise.
The reason why he is unwilling to take Zhou Chen with him is mainly because when two men are together, they will definitely be compared. Although he thinks he is not bad, he has to admit that he is very confident in other aspects.
Relatively speaking, it is still slightly worse than Zhou Chen.
Well, there is also a small gap in wealth.
Even though this person was his 'brother-in-law', he was still quite unhappy.
So before leaving, he made an agreement with Huang Yimei to drive his car later.
Zhou Chen naturally has no objection. Men want to show their best side in front of the woman they like. They don't want to be compared with others. No one wants to be someone else's supporting role.
"Let's go, let's go to the laboratory building and wait."
Huang Zhenhua got on the bus first, while Zhou Chen and Huang Yimei sat in the back row.
"Hey, you really think of me as your driver."
After muttering something, Huang Zhenhua drove to the chemistry building where Bai Xiaohe was located and waited.
Seeing that the weather was hot, Huang Zhenhua very considerately ran to buy some popsicles.
"Rose, here you go."
Huang Yimei and Zhou Chen each had a popsicle, and then he also ate one himself and kept one in his hand to give to Bai Xiaohe.
"Brother, when will people come down?"
"I called, I'll be down soon."
Huang Yimei whispered to Zhou Chen: "My brother praised Miss Bai very well and very beautiful. My mother assigned me a task to bring them together. Please cooperate with me today."
Zhou Chen took a bite of the popsicle: "Eating people is soft-mouthed. Since I ate your brother's popsicle, I must cooperate."
Huang Yimei said: "My brother is already thirty, and he still hasn't found a partner yet. My parents are very anxious and want him to settle down the major events in his life as soon as possible."
"Hey, hey, Huang Yimei, I'm not deaf. You can call me thirty, but it's only thirty. Thirty is the beginning of a man's life. It's when a man is most attractive. What do you know? What's more?
I am thirty, but Zhou Chen is not much younger than me, he is almost thirty."
Huang Zhenhua was very dissatisfied with his sister's tone. Not only women care about age, men also care about age, especially men in their thirties who are the most sensitive.
Huang Yimei sneered: "When I was the most charming, I didn't see the charm, but my mouth was quite tough."
"Huang Yimei..."
"Here we come, brother, look, is it her?"
When Huang Zhenhua heard this, he didn't care about arguing with Huang Yimei and turned around hastily. When he saw Bai Xiaohe, he suddenly showed a smile on his face.
"Xiaohe, you are here."
Bai Xiaohe nodded, and then looked at Zhou Chen in surprise. Before she could say anything, Huang Yimei greeted her very enthusiastically.
"Sister Xiaohe, hello, I am Huang Yimei."
Huang Zhenhua also promptly introduced: "She is my sister, Huang Yimei."
Huang Yimei shook hands with Bai Xiaohe, and then pointed to Zhou Chen behind her: "Sister Xiaohe, this is..."
"Zhou Chen, I didn't expect to see you here."
"It's quite a coincidence."
Seeing Bai Xiaohe greeting Zhou Chen with a familiar posture, Huang Zhenhua's expression suddenly changed slightly.
"Xiao He, Zhou Chen, do you know each other?"
Bai Xiaohe replied coldly: "Yes, I know you."
Facing the puzzled looks of the Huang brothers and sisters, Zhou Chen explained: "Her father, Mr. Bai, and I are business partners, and we have had dinner together."
Huang Zhenhua secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "Oh, that's right. What a coincidence. Xiaohe, Zhou Chen is my sister's boyfriend."
Bai Xiaohe was surprised, but he didn't show it. He just said calmly: "That's it. I haven't heard you mention it before, but I still want to congratulate you."
"Thanks."
Although the conversation between Zhou Chen and Bai Xiaohe was ordinary and they were not familiar with each other, Huang Zhenhua didn't think it was anything wrong and just thought it was a coincidence.
But as a woman, Huang Yimei would think more. She glanced at Zhou Chen's face suspiciously, but as Zhou Chen, who is at the level of an actor, how could she see the flaw?
And Bai Xiaohe's expression was even more unremarkable, because she had always been cold and expressionless. In addition, it was Huang Yimei's first time to see her, so naturally it was impossible to find anything.
In fact, it was nothing, and there was no need for Zhou Chen and Bai Xiaohe to feel guilty.
Huang Yimei said with a smile: "Since we all know each other, that's great. Sister Xiaohe, please get in the car first."
"Yes, get in the car first."
Huang Zhenhua echoed from the side and took the initiative to open the car door and offer the popsicle, but was declined by Bai Xiaohe. He could only hand it to Huang Yimei helplessly.
Along the way, it was clear that the four of them knew each other, but the atmosphere in the car was extremely strange. Huang Zhenhua and Huang Yimei raised topics several times, but when the topic came to Bai Xiaohe, she didn't know how to answer it, and simply said:
Two sentences, and then nothing more.
Zhou Chen, on the other hand, very wisely 'disappeared' at this time, did not speak much, and left all opportunities to them.
Soon, Huang Zhenhua came to the place where he used to fish.
There are mountains, water, and woods here. It is indeed a good place for outings.
When they arrived at the destination, they started to get out of the car and pack up. Huang Zhenhua kept courting Bai Xiaohe, while Zhou Chen and Huang Yimei were fishing by the river.
"This is not right, you have to throw it away like this."
Although Huang Yimei has also caught fish, her level is limited, so Zhou Chen teaches her step by step.
"Can you still fish?"
"Have you forgotten that I grew up in a rural area? Fishing and catching shrimp is a necessary skill. Although this kind of throwing rod is different from the fishing rod we used to fish when we were children, it is not difficult."
Huang Yimei quietly glanced at Bai Xiaohe's position and asked Zhou Chen in a low voice: "How long have you known Bai Xiaohe?"
Faced with Huang Yimei's probing question, Zhou Chen's expression remained unchanged: "Not long ago, it was just after I met you. Her father, Mr. Bai, had cooperated with our company before, and Peng Fei introduced him to me.
Yes, didn't Peng Fei go on a trip with his wife before? At that time, Mr. Bai invited me to dinner, and then I met Bai Xiaohe."
Seeing that Zhou Chen spoke so calmly, Huang Yimei didn't think much about it. Judging from the reactions of the two just now, they knew each other, but they didn't seem to be familiar at all.
"The conditions at Bai Xiaohe's family are very good?"
"Well, her father Bai Erru is a well-known senior in the business circle, and his family has assets of over 100 million."
Huang Yimei was quite surprised. In fact, she had just noticed that although Bai Xiaohe was wearing simple clothes, the bag he was carrying was a famous brand and was worth a lot of money.
Now hearing what Zhou Chen said again, she couldn't help but start to worry about her brother.
"Then tell me, since she has such good conditions, can my brother have any fun with him? I don't know why, but I always feel that her attitude towards my brother is lukewarm, not at all like the attitude that a normal boyfriend and girlfriend should have."
"It's useless for you to ask me, but I see that your brother is already deeply involved."
Zhou Chen knew that there would be no outcome between Huang Zhenhua and Bai Xiaohe, but of course he couldn't say such offending words.
Huang Zhenhua is actually very good among men, but the problem is that what he is meeting now is Bai Xiaohe, who has not yet come out of his last relationship. If he had met him two years later, he might actually be able to have a relationship.
What a chance.
Being suitable for marriage and being suitable for falling in love are two completely different concepts for women.
Huang Yimei frowned and said: "My mother asked me to help, but how can I help with this kind of thing?"
She now has a love-first mentality. She feels that when two people are together, love is the first priority. If there is no feeling between the two, no matter how much help others can do, it will be difficult to be effective.
They were talking about Huang Zhenhua and Bai Xiaohe here, and Huang Zhenhua and Bai Xiaohe over there, and the topic slowly came to them.
In order to talk more to Bai Xiaohe, Huang Zhenhua chatted with Zhou Chen.
Bai Xiaohe said: "I have only met Zhou Chen twice, and we are not very familiar with each other, but I heard my father talk about him, saying that he is a business wizard, very amazing, but I am not interested in business matters, so I know
There aren’t many.”
"What I'm more curious about is, how did he and your sister meet? And how did they fall in love?"
Huang Zhenhua said: "I don't know very well. I know that the first time they met, my sister bumped into him with her roller skates. As for how they fell in love later, I really don't know at all. Maybe it was because
It's fate, just like us, it's fate."
Faced with Huang Zhenhua's unabashed confession, Bai Xiaohe just smiled lightly and did not say anything, but did not refute either, which made Huang Zhenhua a little happier.
He glanced at Zhou Chen and Huang Yimei, who were leaning close to each other not far away, and he was actually very envious. He also wanted to get along with Bai Xiaohe like this, but after taking a look at Bai Xiaohe's face and extending his hand a few centimeters, he felt that
He quietly took it back.
After thinking for a while, Huang Yimei felt that she still had to do something for her brother, so she told Zhou Chen and walked over on her own initiative.
Huang Yimei is a very approachable person who is good at chatting. Even though Bai Xiaohe is not good at getting along with others, under her guidance, the two quickly became familiar with each other and chatted.
Huang Zhenhua walked to Zhou Chen's side and sat fishing with Zhou Chen.
"I just saw your posture. Did you often fish before?"
"It's not that often, but I have caught fish before. It's definitely not as good as you, big brother."
Huang Zhenhua suddenly said proudly: "I dare not say anything else, but I am definitely an expert in fishing. I am familiar with all kinds of fishing rods. I don't have any other hobbies. I just like fishing. If you do it in the future,
If you want to fish, you can come to me and I will guide you."
Zhou Chen said: "If I have time, I will definitely ask you for advice."
While chatting, Huang Zhenhua revealed his purpose.
"Zhou Chen, are you familiar with Xiaohe's father?"
"It's not that we are familiar with each other, but we have cooperated with each other in the company. Recently, my partners are in charge of the company's affairs, and I have less control. Therefore, Mr. Bai is relatively familiar with my partners, and I can only be regarded as acquaintances."
"Oh, that's it."
Huang Zhenhua nodded, then changed the subject and asked: "Zhou Chen, can you answer my question?"
"What?"
"I'm very curious, how did you catch up with my sister? Who is Rose? I know her best. I was also there when you first met. How come you caught up with me after just a few days?
sister?"
After hearing this, Zhou Chen really didn't know how to answer for a while.
Could it be that he didn't pursue her much at all, and Huang Yimei took the initiative to find him for a role in the first place?
He thought for a while and then replied: "How should I put it? To be precise, it should be regarded as love at first sight, love at first sight. Brother, do you know what it means?"
"I understand, of course I understand, I understand so much, I just love Xiaohe..."
Huang Zhenhua's bald mouth revealed his secret, but in the end he coughed twice to cover up his embarrassment.
"Even if it was love at first sight, then how did you pursue my sister? It must be difficult to pursue a girl as outstanding as my sister."
"Well, it's really hard to chase. It took a lot of effort for me to catch Rose."
Huang Zhenhua suddenly became energetic, sat upright, leaned next to Zhou Chen, and lowered his voice.
"I knew that a successful person like you must have the means to chase girls, that's why he was able to chase my simple, stupid sister so quickly."
"Brother has misunderstood. To tell you the truth, in this world, before I met Rose, I had never been in love."
Zhou Chen said: "I really don't need to lie about this kind of thing."
"real?"
"Absolutely true."
Seeing Zhou Chen's sincere answer, Huang Zhenhua was surprised. He felt that Zhou Chen should not lack a girlfriend because of his good conditions. But looking at Zhou Chen's appearance, it didn't look like he was lying to him. Could it be true?
"Okay, let me believe you for now. The first time you fell in love and met my sister, you are lucky. She is definitely worth it."
"Yes, I think so too."
Zhou Chen followed Huang Zhenhua's words and praised him.
Huang Zhenhua suddenly changed the topic: "So many boys have pursued my sister before, but they have failed. The fact that you can catch up with my sister shows that you are talented. In this case, I want to ask you, what do you think I should use?"
How can we take a step closer to Xiaohe?"
The corners of Zhou Chen's mouth twitched. It had to be said that Huang Zhenhua's emotional intelligence and eyesight were really incomparable to Huang Yimei's, and even far worse than his parents.
Look what he said?
However, Huang Zhenhua asked him for advice on how to pursue Bai Xiaohe, which surprised him. The relationship between the two of them was not good enough to talk about this.
It seems that Huang Zhenhua was really completely fascinated by Bai Xiaohe, so much so that in order to catch up with Bai Xiaohe, Huang Zhenhua had racked his brains and asked him for advice in a roundabout way.
