After the engagement banquet between Wang Gang and Xiang Nanfang ended, the two sent the guests away one by one. Wang Gang originally wanted to leave Qiao Yicheng alone, but Qiao Yicheng wanted to send Sun Xiaomo home, so he ran away.
Later, it was Xiang Beifang who was the last to leave, secretly pulling Wang Gang aside.
"Brother-in-law, does your third sister have a partner?"
Xiang Beifang's directness made Wang Gang quite suspicious.
"Brother Beifang, what do you want to do?" Wang Zangzhang smiled and said: "You don't like my Sanli, do you?"
Xiang Beihe giggled and said, "My Xiang family likes to be straightforward when doing things. Since you guessed it, I won't hide it.
I’ve fallen in love with your sister!”
Wang Gang didn't know what to say. Xiang Nanfang confessed to him so directly back then. It seems that the Xiang family really likes to be straightforward when it comes to relationships.
It's just that you are too straightforward!
Fortunately, Wang Gang is not a girl-controller.
"Although my Sanli doesn't have a boyfriend, there are a lot of people chasing her, and they are almost queuing from the end of Shamao Alley to the end of the alley."
Xiang Beifang was not worried at all and said: "Is it normal for good girls to be chased by boys?"
Wang Gang asked strangely: "Why do you fall in love with my sister? Isn't it the first time you meet today?"
Xiang Beifang said with a crazy look on his face: "I don't know why, but my heart was pounding when I saw Sanli today. It's not like I haven't seen beautiful girls before, but I just think Sanli has a special temperament!"
Wang Gang saw that Xiang Beifang fell in love with Qiao Sanli at first sight.
But for Wang Gang, all love at first sight is based on lust.
"Would you object if I pursue your sister?" Xiang Beifang said coquettishly as he geared up.
"I basically don't interfere in my sister's emotional affairs. She makes the decision on her own." Wang Gang said:
"But before I say that, if my sister doesn't have feelings for you, I hope you won't keep stalking her."
"Don't worry." Xiang Beifang said hey, "I'm not that kind of person."
Wang Gang stared at Xiang Beiyi with suspicious eyes, not believing what he said no matter what.
However, Xiang Beifang is generally a good person. Although he is a bit impulsive, he is still a good man. Wang Gang is still happy to see his success.
But if Qiao Sanli really gets married to Xiang Beigui, should he call her brother-in-law or second brother?
After Xiang Beifang received Wang Gang's reply, he left happily. Looking at his excitement, Xiang Nanfang could tell that something was wrong.
"What's wrong with my brother?"
Wang Gang pursed his lips and told Xiang Nanfang about Xiang Beifang's crush on Qiao Sanli.
"My brother fell in love with your sister at first sight?" Xiang Nanfang was surprised after hearing this.
"Do you think they can make it?" Wang Gang said, touching his chin.
"I think it's quite difficult." Xiang Nanfang smiled and said, "I have been in contact with your sister. Sanli is soft on the outside but strong on the inside. She has her own opinions. If she doesn't have feelings for my brother, this matter won't work."
Wang Zangzhang smiled and said, "Don't you think highly of your brother?"
Xiang Nanfang shook his head and said: "I don't think Sanli likes people like my brother."
Wang Gang became interested and asked, "Do you know my sister well?"
Xiang Nannan rolled his eyes at Wang Gang and said, "Of course I want to get to know my future sister-in-law better."
Wang Gang took Xiang Nanfang's hand and walked slowly towards Xiang's house.
"What kind of person do you think Sanli likes?"
Xiang Nannan thought for a while and then said: "Sanli is smart and sensible. She has known what she wants since she was a child. She probably won't think about love affairs in the next few years and will focus on her studies."
Wang Gang nodded and said: "You are right. Sanli has been sensible since she was a child, which makes people feel distressed. On the contrary, it is my fourth sister who makes people worry."
"Simei's character has a clear distinction between love and hate. Once she likes someone, she will show her heart and soul. This is a good thing, but sometimes it is also a bad thing." Xiang Nanfang said softly:
"I think you should pay more attention to Simei's emotional affairs to prevent her from suffering in the future."
Wang Gang sighed: "My sister is older, and it's not easy for me as a brother to take care of her. Just let nature take its course!"
Xiang Nanfang suddenly said: "Don't you like the Sun Xiaomo that big brother brought today?"
Wang Gang stopped, glanced at Xiang Nanfang, and said, "Did I make it obvious?"
"Anyway, you are quite cold to her, unlike others." Xiang Nanfang said sensitively.
Wang Gang sighed and said, "Sun Xiaomo has epilepsy."
Xiang Nanfang said in surprise: "Brother, does he know?"
Epilepsy is not a minor illness. There is no cure for this disease and it can only be controlled with medication.
What’s even more troublesome is that epilepsy is a genetic disease and will be passed on to the next generation!
"Everything I know, eldest brother naturally knows too. I once talked with eldest brother, and he said he doesn't have that kind of interest in Sun Xiaomo?" Wang Gang frowned and said:
"I'm not discriminating against Sun Xiaomo's illness, I just think my eldest brother can have a better choice."
Xiang Nanfang nodded and said: "I understand what you mean. Epilepsy is indeed a trouble, but as a younger brother, it is not appropriate for you to interfere with the elder brother's feelings."
"This is what bothers me." Wang Gang said solemnly: "My eldest brother looks strong on the outside, but he is actually quite soft on the inside.
And I suspect that the person my eldest brother actually likes is not Sun Xiaomo."
Wang Gang also told Xiang Nanfang about Wen Ju'an.
"So, your eldest brother actually had feelings for that student of his, but he gave up on his own initiative just because his conditions were so good." Xiang Nanfang analyzed:
"Sun Xiaomo happened to appear in front of eldest brother at the right time, so they got together naturally."
Wang Gang nodded and said: "My eldest brother actually has a bit of an inferiority complex. He used to compete with his cousin Qi Weimin all day long because of his inferiority complex."
Xiang Nanfang chuckled and said, "Actually, you Qiao family brothers and sisters have a pretty good relationship."
"It's not like you don't know who my dad is. If we brothers and sisters weren't united, we probably wouldn't have lived this long."
Xiang Nanfang smiled and said: "I always feel that in your family, the eldest brother is the father, and you, the second brother, are the mother."
Wang Gang was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion: "How do you say that?"
Xiang Nanfang said: "Have you not noticed? To Sanli and Simei, you and my eldest brother are more like parents than brothers!"
Wang Gang smiled bitterly and said: "They were all forced out by the old man."
Xiang Nanfang was right to remind him, and Wang Gang also realized that they are brothers and sisters after all. Parents tend to interfere in emotional matters, and brothers are not suitable.
"Thank you." Wang Gang raised Xiang Nanfang's chin and kissed it gently.
"No, it's not good for others to see you on the road." Xiang Nannan wanted to refuse but then greeted him.
"What are you afraid of?" Wang Gang kissed Xiang Nanfang's lips nonchalantly.
…………
On the other side, Qiao Yicheng sent Sun Xiaomo home and slowly walked downstairs to her house.
"Thank you for taking me to your brother's engagement party today." Sun Xiaomo stopped in front of the corridor and said to Qiao Yicheng:
"I'm very happy that you introduced me to your brothers and sisters."
Qiao Yicheng said simply: "Actually, I have wanted to introduce my family to you for a long time, but I have never found a suitable opportunity."
Sun Xiaomo smiled and said: "I know, I was the one who fell in love with you in the past. I was so worried that it was just unrequited love."
"No, no, I actually like you, but I have never been in love before and have no experience." Qiao Yicheng said in a panic.
Sun Xiaomo couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth when she saw Qiao Yicheng's innocent look.
"When you saved me on the street, I always had you in my heart. Even if you don't like me, it doesn't matter." Sun Xiaomo said:
"I just want you to know that there is someone in this world who quietly likes you."
Qiao Yicheng was moved and said: "Thank you, Xiao Mo."
Sun Xiaomo glanced at the stairs, lowered her head and said, "Do you want to come up and sit down? My mother won't be back from the evening shift today."
Qiao Yicheng didn't understand what Sun Xiaomo meant and simply said:
"Forget it today, the second wife is engaged. It's not suitable for me to live with him anymore. I'm going to move to the school dormitory in two days, so I have to go back and pack my things."
Sun Xiaomo was slightly disappointed and said, "I'll help you move in two days."
Qiao Yicheng shook his head and said: "You still have to go to work, don't affect your work, I don't have much."
With that said, Qiao Yicheng waved goodbye to Sun Xiaomo.
Sun Xiaomo watched Qiao Yicheng leave, then stomped upstairs and returned home.
She opened the door with her key and saw her mother sitting in the living room watching TV and eating melon seeds.
"Mom, why are you back? Aren't you working the night shift?" Sun Xiaomo thought to herself. Fortunately, Qiao Yicheng didn't come up.
"I was temporarily transferred to another class and came back." Grandmother cracked the melon seeds and said, "That Qiao Yicheng sent you back?"
Sun Xiaomo nodded and said, "Brother Yicheng's engagement party is today."
"When are you and him going to settle things? Let me tell you, Qiao Yicheng is a graduate student at a prestigious university and will definitely have a future. Don't let others get ahead of you. Sometimes you can take the initiative." Grandmother warned.
"I know it well." Sun Xiaomo said impatiently, "I'll go back to the room first."
Sun Xiaomo returned to the room and took out a men's undershirt from the cabinet.
If Wang Gang were here, he would have recognized it. The sweatshirt in Sun Xiaomo's hand belonged to him.
