Bloody Romance: I, the big troublemaker, Zhong Yuemin!

"What's so good about Zhong Yuemin that makes you defend him so much?"

Zhou Huaihai said:

"He just wrote a book called 'Drawing Sword' to earn some royalties. Little sister, you have to understand that his father is still in prison and whether he can get out is another matter. If he is finally convicted, Zhong Yuemin will be worse than an ordinary family child. He will definitely not be able to join the army, work, or go to college in the future. He can't rely on such an unstable career as writing books to make a living, right?

After the Spring Festival, the spring conscription will begin in March or April next year. Your father has planned your path. You will first go to the army and study in a field hospital for a year. With this resume, we will arrange for you to study at the Military Medical University for a few years. After graduation, you will be transferred back to the General Military Region Hospital in Beijing.

What about Zhong Yuemin? If his father's problem isn't resolved, he can forget about joining the army. He'll have to go to the countryside to work in the fields. The places Beijing can go to are either northern Shaanxi or the Northeast China's Great Northern Wilderness, both bitterly cold places used to exile criminals in ancient times. Once their household registration is moved, they become rural residents. They might end up spending the rest of their lives in the countryside, dealing with the land, hoes, and pickaxe handles every day. And how can you possibly go there and live with people? Do you think that's realistic?"

"Second brother, Yuemin's father's problem will be solved sooner or later. I'll wait for him!"

"That's easy for you to say." Zhou Huaihai said:

"If it's five or ten years before it's resolved, will you wait for him for five or ten years? You're already an old girl, how many decades can a person have? You only care about romance now, and don't know the daily necessities of life. My second brother used to be like you, thinking that as long as two people like each other, nothing else matters. That's not true. Marriage is not just about the two of you. The family behind it is also crucial.

"Little sister, even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about our family. Our father, our mother, even your older brother and I. We're a military family. Our father is in that position now, and there are countless eyes watching us from behind the scenes, just waiting for you to make a mistake. You said you married into a family with a background problem, and some scoundrels will use this as a reason to attack our family and our father. It's all possible. Have you ever thought about this?"

Zhou Xiaobai said:

"We are both young now. We still have several years to go before we join the army and go to the military medical university. Maybe during this time, Yuemin's father's problem will be solved."

"What if it can't be solved?"

"No one can predict the future, so I won't worry about it. I just cherish the present."

Zhou Xiaobai said:

"Second brother, please stop trying to persuade me. I understand the truth, but I will never leave Yuemin. I like him, and it's not a momentary impulse. It's not impulsive. I know what I want, and I will only be with Yuemin for the rest of my life."

"What kind of magic potion did this kid give you? How long have you two known each other in this life?"

"Second brother, you don't understand. Even if you only meet some people once, they are your lifelong destiny."

Zhou Huaihai was so angry that he laughed. He still didn't understand. Suddenly he thought of something.

"Little sister, you weren't bullied by this kid, were you?"

Zhou Xiaobai was embarrassed and annoyed, "Second brother, am I that kind of person in your eyes? No, I'm not."

"Huaihai, what did you say about your sister?"

"I was worried that my younger sister would suffer... I was wrong, I apologize to you," Zhou Huaihai said.

"I think Li Yuanchao is a good match for our family. Look how much Aunt Shen likes you..."

"Second brother, stop talking!"

Zhou Xiaobai said:

"Second brother, I've noticed you're quite materialistic now, constantly talking about other people's families. According to you, when two people are dating, they should choose based on the wealth of their family? If the other person is an old man, do I have to marry him?"

"Can you please stop arguing with me?"

Zhou Huaihai rolled his eyes.

"I'm your biological second brother, how could I possibly harm you? Ren Yuanchao is indeed qualified in all aspects, and I'm not saying you two must do this or that. Give him a chance, try getting along with each other, and maybe you'll discover a different Li Yuanchao, and your outlook on love will change. This is how people gain experience. As for you saying Li Yuanchao is a troublemaker, that's nothing. At most, he's just young and impulsive and loves to make trouble. Wasn't your second brother like that before? When he goes to the army for a few years to train, he'll be more stable. This isn't a big deal.

Mom, am I right?"

Chen Yijun said to his daughter:

"Xiaobai, Mom knows you're obsessed with Yuemin right now. I won't stop you, but there's one thing I'm saying. If it's really like your second brother said, and Yuemin's father's problem can't be solved and he stays in the countryside, then you have to listen to us. Don't throw tantrums or be stubborn anymore. You've never suffered a bit since you were a child, and your dad and I won't let you suffer. Maybe your dad is telling Yuemin this in the study right now."

Zhou Xiaobai simply said, "Anyway, Yuemin and I will never be separated."

The Zhou family was holding a family meeting, and the Li family was also busy. On the way back, Li Yuanchao was the driver today, and his parents sat in the back seat. Shen Lan said:

"Old Li, what do you think of Xiaobai?"

"He's quite good, well-educated and a well-behaved child."

"I think so too. He's handsome and a perfect match for our Yuan Chao. Old Li, please talk to Old Zhou later. I'll also have a good chat with Yijun. I'm really attracted to Xiaobai and consider her my daughter-in-law."

"You are so eager to do things," Li Hailong said.

"Xiaobai already has a partner, but you didn't even notice that Zhong Yuemin?"

Shen Landao:

"I'm not blind, I know what's going on. What's so strange about young people dating? Our Yuan Chao is no worse than that Zhong Yuemin. Zhong Yuemin's father is still in prison. This is equivalent to having a stain on his body. He can still avoid being sent to the countryside to work in the fields next year? Xiaobai is too naive. I will explain the pros and cons to her later. I think she will make the best choice.

Yuan Chao, you should spend more time with Xiao Bai from now on. Treat him to a meal, take him to a movie, go to the park, etc. Don't mess around with your friends all the time, do you hear me?"

"Mom, I know!"

Li Yuanchao said:

"We have to do this step by step. Don't be impatient, otherwise it will only backfire. Don't worry, I will definitely let Xiaobai be your daughter-in-law when the time comes."

Shen Lan said with satisfaction: "That's about right."

"Aid North Korea!"

Li Hailong said:

"I don't object to you dating Xiaobai, but don't act recklessly. Your Uncle Zhou is not an ordinary person. If you make him angry, I'm afraid even your father can't protect you."

"Dad, I'm not a child anymore. I know what's important," Li Yuanchao said.

"I will definitely make Xiaobai truly fall in love with me. I have confidence in your son."

After Zhong Yueyue came out of her father-in-law's study, she said goodbye and left without staying any longer. Xiaobai sent her downstairs, and Zhou Huaihai followed her down. When they reached the first floor, before anyone else could speak, Zhong Yuemin spoke first.

Second brother, do you want to talk to me too?"
