Chapter 2644 Proposal (Part 1)
As He Jiayi's eldest sister, He Jiali was showing off Wang Yue's great achievements to her younger sister, which left He Jiayi speechless!
Wang Yue is also her older brother, isn't he?
She still calls him "elder brother" instead of "brother-in-law"!
But now He Jiayi didn't dare to argue with He Jiali. After all, her older brother had become her brother-in-law, so she could only comfort her older sister.
"Sister, do you think everyone is like your brother-in-law, who has you in his heart and doesn't want to leave?"
It was obvious from a young age that Zhang Qiulin was a very pragmatic person; otherwise, he wouldn't have come to the courtyard house so often after coming to Beijing to study, and he wouldn't have even brought his girlfriend along.
Do you think he really just brought his girlfriend along for a visit?
Zhang Qiulin just wanted to show his girlfriend that he had a good network of connections!
This is a case of the fox borrowing the tiger's power; he's using us to get his girlfriend's family to take him seriously.
Besides, our two families are just neighbors, not related at all. He's doing this to get our fourth son to give up so he can wholeheartedly become his rich son-in-law.
He Jiali listened to her younger sister's analysis and thought it made a lot of sense. She didn't expect her third sister to be so clever, so she smiled and said, "I didn't expect my third sister to have grown up so much."
Seeing her older sister looking so pleased, He Jiayi felt a warm glow inside.
It's just a family matter; when problems start to arise, it's like trying to fix one problem only to have another pop up.
He Jiawen is now in his twenties and has reached the age to get married, so Grandma He, He Changsheng, and Liu Meixin are all a little anxious.
Originally, many teachers at the school wanted to find a partner for He Jiawen, but he was rejected, so they had to give up on that idea for the time being.
But now that the senior sister from the He family is anxious, she's asking even more questions. He Jiawen has no choice but to use work as an excuse to avoid them.
But sometimes love comes and you can't stop it.
Sure enough, on this day, a basketball league was being held in the city, using the basketball court of No. 1 Middle School. He Jiawen happened to be watching a basketball game and immediately took a liking to a player named Chen Weiguo.
He Jiawen watched Chen Weiguo play basketball and found him to be very good. Although his skin was a little dark, he looked very energetic. Moreover, he didn't use any dirty tricks during the game and would often protect his teammates, and even the opposing players.
He Jiawen thought he was a kind person, and thus left a very good impression on him.
Chen Weiguo dribbled the ball across half-court and had just passed it to a teammate when he saw He Jiawen watching from the sidelines. It was love at first sight!
So Chen Weiguo stared straight at He Jiawen, unable to look away, and stood there dumbfounded, not moving an inch.
And just at that moment, his teammate, unable to launch a strong attack, passed the ball back to him.
Chen Weiguo only remembered that they were playing basketball when he heard his teammates shouting. He quickly turned around to look at the basketball.
But it would have been better for Chen Weiguo not to turn back. If he hadn't, the basketball would have hit him on the side of his head, and at most it would have just hurt for a moment.
But as Chen Weiguo turned around, he caught the basketball being passed to him right on the bridge of his nose, managing to catch it very steadily. The collision was completely unexpected; Chen Weiguo was hit in the nose and started bleeding, but the ball just happened to land in his hands.
After a group of people exclaimed in surprise, Chen Weiguo could only cover his nose and come to the sidelines. He Jiawen happened to be there, and Chen Weiguo's eyes kept drifting towards He Jiawen.
Seeing Chen Weiguo's pitiful state and his proximity to her, He Jiawen didn't think much of it and took out her handkerchief from her bag, handing it to Chen Weiguo and saying, "Use this to wipe yourself first."
Chen Weiguo was dumbfounded. He had originally intended to rinse himself off with water, but he came over because he wanted to take a few more glances at the beautiful woman.
Now Chen Weiguo could only foolishly accept the handkerchief, without thinking of anything else.
However, because Chen Weiguo was only focused on looking at people, he didn't take the handkerchief and instead grabbed He Jiawen's hand.
He Jiawen's face flushed red. She quickly pulled her hand away, threw the handkerchief at Chen Weiguo, and ran away in a flash.
Chen Weiguo stared blankly as He Jiawen ran away, still reluctant to wipe his nosebleed with his handkerchief, and instead wiped it with his own T-shirt.
Chen Weiguo's foolish appearance was seen by his superiors and colleagues. One of them, who knew Chen Weiguo's mother, secretly went to the school to inquire about He Jiawen's situation.
When the leader learned that He Jiawen was a college graduate who had returned to teach, and that his older sister and brother-in-law were both teaching at Tsinghua University, and that his two younger sisters were also in college, he remarked that this was a family steeped in scholarship.
Although Chen Weiguo's family was relatively well-off, it was still difficult to pursue someone from such a family. Therefore, Chen Weiguo's supervisor told him about He Jiawen's situation and asked him to think it over carefully.
After hearing this, Chen Weiguo was in a daze, feeling as if his little fairy had left him.
Chen Weiguo's family had arranged blind dates for him early on, hoping he would find a partner, but he just wanted to find someone he liked.
Now he's finally found someone he likes, but her family is a scholarly family, and he's really worried that he won't be able to win her over.
Chen's mother also felt very sorry for her youngest son. Seeing that he was sullen after returning home, she directly contacted Chen Weiguo's leader to ask if her son had encountered any problems.
Chen Weiguo's superiors didn't hide anything and told him about how Chen Weiguo had fallen for a girl.
Upon hearing the news, Chen's mother was overjoyed. As long as her son had someone he liked, she was happy. She immediately brought gifts and went to his door.
After asking around until she found her way home, Chen's mother knocked on the door without any hesitation and asked, "Is this He Jiawen's house?"
Liu Meixin happened to be home. She was a little suspicious of this stranger, so she asked curiously, "I wonder what brings you to my house to see Jiawen?"
Chen's mother recognized Liu Meixin's identity, but smiled and shook her head, saying, "I'm not looking for He Jiawen, I'm looking for you. You're Jiawen's mother, right?"
Liu Meixin had probably guessed that he was probably here to arrange a blind date for her second daughter. She politely replied, "You're here to propose marriage, right? Our family is quite open-minded. As long as our daughter likes it, my husband and I have no objections."
