Lao Shui left the guest house where Zhou Ming lived, and then went directly to Lao Cheng's home. Seeing the Cheng family members who were all looking at him expectantly, Lao Shui suddenly felt filled with emotion. If he had known that today, why would he do it in the first place? .
"Lao Cheng, Zhou Ming still gave me face, and he agreed to continue dating Kaiyan."
"Lao Shui, we can't just date, we must put marriage on the agenda as soon as possible." Lao Cheng said while holding back his surprise.
"Well, this is very simple. I just need to go talk to him, and he should agree to get married." Lao Shui nodded indifferently, but seeing the surprise of the Cheng family, he had to pour cold water on him again and said, "However, Zhou Ming He also made his own demands."
"What? He still wants to make demands?" Lao Cheng's eyes widened, showing that he was surprised and angry at this moment.
"Haha, Secretary Shui, tell me." Cheng Kaiyan's mother pulled the show-off Lao Cheng and then looked at Lao Shui with a smile.
"Zhou Ming said that you can't interfere with his work matters in the future, and he will not interfere with Cheng Qianli's matters. No matter what happens to Cheng Qianli, Zhou Ming will not come forward to help."
"What? Zhou Ming hasn't married Kaiyan yet, so he's going to sever ties with our family?" This time Lao Cheng was really angry, and looked at Lao Shui in disbelief, "Then I want him as my son-in-law and... What’s the use?”
"Lao Cheng, I think Zhou Ming was a little scared when he saw that Min Zhongsheng and other factory sons-in-law were having a hard time." Looking at the furious Cheng family, Lao Shui explained with a wry smile, "Actually, we can understand to some extent. After all, they are the first batch of college students like the proud sons of heaven, and they don’t want to live a life of “son-in-laws who come to their homes”.”
"Then you can't sever ties with us?"
"Haha, actually it doesn't count as severing the relationship. Apart from work matters, everything else is still a normal relationship."
"Lao Shui, thank you for worrying about Kaiyan, but we will never agree to this embarrassing marriage." Lao Cheng thought carefully for a while, and then flatly refused.
"Huh? Lao Cheng, you have to think clearly. Zhou Ming is still very serious about relationships and marriage, otherwise he wouldn't be so cautious." Looking at the stubborn Lao Cheng in front of him, Secretary Shui couldn't help but persuade him again.
"Secretary Shui, our Cheng family is almost being treated as thieves and we are on guard. We don't have high hopes for this marriage."
"Okay! This is all your own business, and I, an outsider, can't make any decisions." Secretary Shui sighed helplessly.
Seeing how stubborn Lao Cheng was, Lao Shui was a little disappointed at this time. After all, nothing is absolute. Although he had stated in advance that the Cheng family would not be allowed to interfere with work, Zhou Ming would still interfere with Lao Cheng and his wife.
Nowadays, Zhou Ming has a bright future and he attaches great importance to his future. Everyone can understand it. He didn't expect that Lao Cheng would sacrifice his daughter's happiness for the sake of profit.
Seeing Lao Shui leave in disappointment, the Cheng family was still furious. Cheng Qianli was still too afraid of Secretary Shui. He didn't dare to get angry until Lao Shui was far away.
"Dad, this person named Zhou is going too far. What does he think of our Cheng family? Is he a thief?"
"Okay! It's not all because of you, a loser." Lao Cheng quickly stopped his son's complaints, and then looked at his daughter, "Kaiyan, no matter how much you like Zhou Ming, this matter can only be done Let’s leave it at that.”
"dad……"
"Kaiyan, please stop being stubborn with your dad. We are all doing this for your own good." Cheng Kaiyan's mother quickly persuaded her daughter.
What Cheng Kaiyan thinks about now is Zhou Ming's kindness to her. In the more than a year since Zhou Ming left, she has had several blind dates under the arrangement of her parents. Unfortunately, every time she would take advantage of Zhou Ming's worries and other people's shortcomings. It's easy to feel like you're going crazy.
No matter how infatuated Cheng Kaiyan was with Zhou Ming, she had to listen to the opinions of her parents and brother after hearing the obstruction from her parents and brother, because she had never had her own thinking and had long been accustomed to arrangements from her family.
…
Marriage is a very complicated issue. There are many difficulties that need to be faced before and after marriage. If it is impossible to go both ways, it will be very painful for both husband and wife.
For Zhou Ming now, if he were an ordinary self-employed person, he could indulge the Cheng family occasionally without considering the interests and bottom line. However, the Cheng family would not look down on the self-employed people, and this would lead to a vicious cycle.
The next day, he received news from Secretary Shui that Zhou Ming no longer had any nostalgia for his relationship with Cheng Kaiyan. A marriage without family blessing is destined to be unhappy. It is impossible for Zhou Ming and Cheng Kaiyan to have a marriage together.
After learning about the matter with Cheng Kaiyan, Zhou Ming devoted himself to his work. In fact, the so-called supervision work was really just a formality. Based on Zhou Ming's understanding of Song Yunhui, Song Yunhui would never be careless about technology.
"Zhou Ming, you and Cheng Kaiyan?" Song Yunhui looked at Zhou Ming hesitantly.
"Haha, with Lao Cheng's machinations, he will definitely not agree." Zhou Ming explained with a wry smile.
"Hey! What a pity for you and Cheng Kaiyan."
"Yes! No matter from every aspect, Kaiyan is a very good woman, but she has a family with insatiable desires." Zhou Ming actually felt regretful, and then suddenly looked at Song Yunhui, "What about you? All these years Don’t talk about one either?”
"Zhou Ming, you know, I have always liked Liu Qiming, but she ignored me."
"Huh? What is Liu Qiming doing now?"
"Her father retired from Jinzhou Factory, and then she left the library directly. Then she heard that she was working as an accountant outside."
"Liu Qiming disagrees. Judging from the tradition of Jinzhou Factory, even if you marry her, it will be a lot of trouble."
"Huh? Is Mr. Liu much better than Lao Cheng?"
"Hey! They are the eldest brother, not to mention the second brother. Anyone who has a daughter in Jinzhou Factory has pure motives. They all want to find an obedient and capable son-in-law." Zhou Ming shook his head disapprovingly.
"Huh? Zhou Ming, are you too extreme?" Song Yunhui looked at Zhou Ming in horror.
"Actually, to be precise, every family with daughters has this idea, but situations like Lao Cheng's family and Jinzhou Factory are still rare. After all, more families will also take into account the happiness of their daughters. "
"Hey! I'm afraid of marriage after what you said."
"Don't say you are afraid of marriage, I am a little afraid of marriage now." Looking at Song Yunhui who was frightened by him, Zhou Ming explained with a wry smile, "I always want to find a perfect marriage, but there really is no perfect marriage in this world. ?"
Zhou Ming knew that what he was doing was wrong, but there was really nothing he could do about it. Rushing to get married for a lifetime would only harm others and himself.
