Return To The Past: I Won’t Choose Humility This Time!

Chapter 39: Pick Yun Xi Up

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Yun Xi and Jing Yu made detailed arrangements for their business plans.

Jing Yu was smart enough to understand everything immediately. He did not ask where Yun Xi’s supplies came from. From then on, he had new ideas.

In the past, he felt that he had to protect two women in this world, namely his mother and sister. However, there was one more person he wanted to protect now, and that was Yun Xi.

In this life, Jing Yu would risk his life to protect Yun Xi to keep her safe. He had become one of Zhou Lin’s most powerful love rivals.

Yun Xi and Jing Yu’s business plans were in full swing. Meanwhile, Old Master Zhou, who was thousands of miles away, was busy buying things.

“Zhou Lin, what do you think of this?”

Old Master Zhou casually picked up a small golden lock. The golden lock was engraved with the words ‘auspicious and good luck’, which had a good meaning.

“It’s pretty good. What matters most is that you like it, Dad.”

Old Master Zhou listened to these useless words and ignored the situation here. He was so angry that he continued to beat the ground with his walking stick.

“Can you be a little more attentive!

“This is for you to marry a wife, not for me to marry a wife!”

Zhou Lin was speechless. Ever since his father understood his intentions, his father had been constantly buying things in the mall, including gold ornaments, bedding, and other things for betrothal purposes.

As long as Old Master Zhou was happy, Zhou Lin did not mind the trouble and continued to accompany him. However, Old Master Zhou was clearly exuberant. He had already been shopping for a week and still had no intention of stopping.

Sometimes, Old Master Zhou would also ask for Zhou Lin’s opinion, which was basically useless. It was not that Zhou Lin’s opinion differed from Old Master Zhou’s, but Old Master Zhou would end up buying everything.

Old Master Zhou had stayed in the military region his whole life. After he was promoted, his salary increased. He had come from a tough generation during the war of resistance. He lived a very frugal life and saved up all the salaries given by the higher-ups. The Zhou family’s eldest son had some business at home and was also very filial. As he was usually busy with work, he had very little time to take care of his father. He transferred quite a lot of money into his father’s account.

Although Old Master Zhou had been buying many things in the mall recently, his savings would not be emptied out.

However, Old Master Zhou was getting more and more extravagant. He was initially looking at the betrothal gifts, but now, he had already taken a liking to golden locks. What a rapid change. However, these things could be used sooner or later. Zhou Lin would let Old Master Zhou buy them as long as he was happy.

“Zhou Lin, what kind of milk powder do you think the child should drink?”

Zhou Lin thought to himself, ‘What!’

There was really no need to store the milk powder so early.

It was another rewarding day. Old Master Zhou was tired after shopping all day. Looking at the gifts, he felt that something was missing. However, he was afraid that the girls in the countryside would get engaged early, so he let Zhou Lin bring the gifts to the Yun family first. First, he would talk about marriage. If there was anything missing, he would make it up to his future daughter-in-law.

Zhou Mo found out that Zhou Lin was going to the Yun family to propose marriage. He hurriedly ran to the military compound where Old Master Zhou lived. He was the first to take the lead in opposing this kind of marriage. First of all, he could not accept the fact that a girl he had rejected would become his elder. Second, if his uncle married Yun Xi, what would happen to Yun Lian then?

Zhou Mo was surely the first to take the lead in opposing this matter.

However, in front of Old Master Zhou, how could he have the right to speak? In the end, his idea was vetoed by Old Master Zhou.

Old Master Zhou continued to do as he pleased and discussed with his youngest son about going to the Yun family to propose marriage. He noticed that there was still some time before the children started school. If there was a chance, he could bring Yun Xi over.

Although Zhou Mo did not have the right to speak, the Zhou family did not avoid him in all matters. When he heard that his uncle was going to the Yun family, he wanted to go along.

After all, it had been a long time since he had seen his goddess, Yun Lian.

If his uncle wanted to bring Yun Xi over, he would also want to bring his goddess over.

The saying ‘Absence makes the heart grow fonder’ was true. Once Yun Lian and Zhou Mo got closer, it was not known whether they could maintain that beautified image of each other.
