War Yin heard the sound of footsteps moving away before he came out of the bathroom.
It was fortunate that Grandma had called him over again, and fortunate that he had stiffened up and stepped on the steps she had given him, otherwise Zhang Niansheng would have had the chance to be alone with Hai Tong.
Zhang Niansheng came out of the shop and drove away, but at the junction, he stopped the car and called Hai Tong.
Hai Tong quickly answered his call.
“Niansheng, what’s wrong?”
“Sister Hai Tong, are you free later? It’s around half past seven.”
“What is it?”
Hai Tong didn’t say whether she was free or not, but directly asked him what he wanted.
Zhang Niansheng hesitated for a moment, but still said, “I have to go to a business reception at the Guancheng Hotel later, and I need a female companion, so you know, I don’t have a girlfriend yet, so I thought I’d ask my sister to do me a favour and accompany me to the business reception.”
Hai Tong refused without even thinking: “You can ask Xiaojun to accompany you, I’m not available, my husband is still waiting for me to have dinner with him at the shop.” One second to remember
She only had sister-brotherly love for Zhang Niansheng, but Zhangyin misunderstood, thinking that she was treating Zhang Niansheng as her next family.
Whether she meant it or not, she would spend less time alone with Zhang Niansheng in the future, and it was better if she could do without it.
The last time she invited Zhang Niansheng to dinner, there was Xiaojun present, not alone, and when Zhangyin saw it, he misunderstood that she and Zhang Niansheng were having an affair, which made her very angry.
How is it that in Zhan Yin’s eyes, she is the kind of person who can’t wait to find her next wife?
When she heard Hai Tong mention her husband, Zhang Niansheng’s heart clogged up, but she didn’t show it on the surface and begged, “Sister Hai Tong, do you need to eat until after seven o’clock? Sister, please do me a favour. My sister Jun has a programme in the evening, she can’t help me with this.”
“Do you have to have female companions? I don’t need to eat until after seven, but I still have to look after the shop. Besides, I have a husband. Niansheng, I’ve always treated you like a younger brother, but in the eyes of outsiders, the two of us are not related by blood.”
“If I accompany you to the reception, what will people think of us both?”
Zhang Niansheng knew that Hai Tong did not have any half-hearted feelings for him, and really treated him as a younger brother.
Hearing her say with his own ears that she only treated him as a younger brother, Zhang Niansheng still felt an ache in his heart.
If he had known that Sister Hai Tong needed to find a man to marry, he would have done her this favour.
Unfortunately, there was no knowing earlier.
Sister Hai Tong probably resented the fact that he was three years younger than her, she never considered his and would rather find a strange man she didn’t know for a flash marriage than him!
Zhang Niansheng understood this in his heart, yet he still had extravagant hopes.
Sister Jun had said that Sister Haitong and her flash marriage husband had signed an agreement that they would divorce after six months.
When Sister Hai Tong gets divorced, he must confess his love to her.
“Sister Hai Tong, your mouth is on others, whatever they say, we have no conscience.”
After a moment of silence, Hai Tong said quite frankly, “Niansheng, my husband cares a lot about me being alone with other men.”
Zhang Niansheng may have simply wanted a female companion and nothing more, but Hai Tong had to make Zhang Niansheng remember one thing, and that was that she was now a married woman!
After the quarrel with War Yin, the cold war, none of which was now considered reconciliation, Hai Tong was mindful of her distance from men.
Zhang Niansheng: “……”
“Niansheng, I’m going to drive, I’m not going to talk to you first, if you really want someone to accompany you, find your sister Jun, what kind of program can she have in the evening, it’s just catching up on dramas, you tell her, she will definitely help you with this.”
Shen Xiaojun was actually a geeky girl.
At night, she likes to catch up on dramas at home, holding her phone and reading novels.
Hai Tong hung up the call with Zhang Niansheng.
