Transmigration: I Have Storage Space in the Apocalypse novel Chapter 389

Chapter 389: Chapter 385 Gossipy Woman Wouldn’t Say This [Honor Roll+]

——————

"Mr. and Mrs. Xie, Third Sister-in-law, I’ve always wanted to pay you a visit. I am one hundred percent serious about Xiaozi. We’ve been dating with the intention of getting married. As for my Zhou family, we truly hold no concern for family doors or lineage. If you don’t believe me, I can invite my elders to come right away to discuss the wedding proceedings for Xiaozi and me."

Zhou Zhenghui finished speaking solemnly and then gazed at Xie Jingzi with focused affection.

Xie Jingzi’s face turned red with embarrassment, stealing glances at her parents. Seeing that her mother’s expression was still calm but her father’s face turned pale green, it was clear he was displeased, and she immediately felt anxious.

Out of the corner of her eye, she saw her third sister-in-law calmly pick up her cup of red tea, take a gentle sip, and her demeanor appeared peaceful, and the strong warmth in her hands gradually steadied her somewhat chaotic breathing.

"Secretary Zhou, your opinion may not necessarily represent the view of your Zhou family, right?" Xie Tiesheng, seeing his daughter shrinking like a quail next to the young man, her little hand being held by him so tenderly without even a twitch, felt a surge of resentment watching them. How could he converse peacefully?

"Mr. Xie, I can represent the view of my Zhou family." Zhou Zhenghui spoke with an extreme confidence, looking straight into Mr. Xie’s eyes unabashedly.

As the legitimate eldest grandson of the Zhou family, he naturally represents the Zhou family. Moreover, he’s not just eight or eighteen years old; he’s a grown man at twenty-eight, having held a significant position for six years. What kind of storm hasn’t he seen?

The title Crown Prince of the courtyard was not spoken in vain.

In his view, he was not afraid of Mr. Xie’s bit of moodiness.

It was only for Little Zi’er’s sake that he showed so much respect to the Xie family.

Because of his affection for Xie Jingzi, there was naturally a trace of plea in his manner towards her family. Just this alone would be enough to surprise the Zhou family, were they to see it.

"..." Xie Tiesheng glared, his tiger eyes glaring with suppressed energy at the confident and self-assured young man from the Zhou family in front of him, knowing that he is now the Deputy Secretary of the county town, a man with both status and power. To genuinely fancy his youngest child, he should be happy, in theory.

However, his eldest daughter married into the ’officialdom,’ and although her husband is good, his family is extremely difficult to deal with—a man with ambition who puts all his thoughts on his career will not care for the women of his household, how would he know if his wife is doing well in her own home?

Like his eldest daughter, her previous marriage life could only be described with the word ’endurance’!

If it weren’t for the support of his son, Xie Jingchen, the eldest daughter’s position would be even weaker. After all, a woman’s status always falls once she gets married.

When you are dating, everything is wonderful, but once you’re married, the mindset changes completely!

Zhou Zhenghui, the young man, has delicate and poised features, a high bridge nose, clearly a man of ambition. Looking at him sitting with elegance, speaking with measure, and his forceful presence, in Xie Tiesheng’s view, this young man is not one to indulge in sentimentality.

The most important thing is, although Xie Tiesheng deeply resents what Wang Junxuan has done and knows that his youngest has not been harmed by him, the village gossips say otherwise!

If it were not for the village’s harsh and baseless rumors about his youngest daughter, would he and his wife have been so readily persuaded by the Third Son’s Wife to stay here?

Although taking care of the Third Son’s Wife is one thing, as the biological parents of their youngest, they naturally favor their own child. Seeing their daughter cooped up in her boudoir at home, not even daring to step out the front door, they were incredibly worried!

They feared that with one fatal thought, she would end up like the daughter of the old distillery root, drowning herself in the lake.

Now, regarding the boyfriend their youngest daughter is seeing, even the Third Son has made it clear that the Zhou family is a prominent household. Could Xie Tiesheng and his wife not think further?
