When Zhou Jin went to see the old man, the old man was talking to Zhou Shenye.

Upon seeing him arrive, Zhou Shenye nodded to him from his seat.

"I didn't know Shinno was here too," Zhou Jinxian said with a smile.

"You never come here unless you have a reason. What brings you here today?" Old Master Zhou's attitude towards his third son was noticeably different from his attitude towards Zhou Shenye.

"I'm here to tell you some good news," Zhou Jin said with a grin. "Zhou He's marriage should be settled soon. It was arranged by Yu Rong before, but the Xie family got the wrong girl, and now they've switched her back..."

Grandpa Zhou naturally knew about this matter, and even knew the details of the child swap.

"You too, you only have one son, and you don't even care about his marriage." Old Master Zhou considered himself a responsible father. He had been there for all his children and had always planned for their future before they got married.

When it comes to Zhou Jin, it's all about scheming.

"It wasn't Shenye who agreed to the marriage exchange; it was Zhou He who agreed." Zhou Jin looked at Zhou Shenye, hoping he would say something on his behalf.

Little did he know that Zhou Shenye didn't move an inch when he heard the words "Zhou He's marriage".

Especially when Zhou Jin said it was the marriage he had asked to be changed.

Zhou Shenye had no idea how he felt.

When Xie Qingqing called, he thought it would be better to change the marriage arrangement than to get intimate with his niece-in-law.

Who knew that the person who was replaced was Xie Qingyu.

Even though Zhou He and Xie Qingqing's marriage was only verbal and involved exchanging tokens, Zhou He and Xie Qingyu are now getting engaged in a real way.

Zhou Shenye didn't know what kind of willpower he used to restrain himself and speak, "Zhou He is still young, isn't it a bit too early for him to get engaged?"

“It’s getting late, we’re all of legal marriage age.” Zhou Jin replied instinctively, “If we get engaged now, we can get married in a year or two, and then Dad can hold his great-grandson.”

Zhou Shenye's face grew increasingly cold, and for the first time when he was not having an attack, he turned the prayer beads.

What does Zhou He mean?

“Zhou He has no objections. He’s been getting along quite well with Xie Qingyu recently… that is, the daughter the Xie family brought back.” Zhou Jin wasn’t lying about this.

He just didn't know what was wrong with that sentence, or if it was just his imagination, but he felt that Zhou Shenye's expression had become even colder.

After thinking about it, I don't think he said anything.

"The date hasn't been set yet. I was thinking of having Dad suggest a few dates first, and then letting them choose. It would show that we're taking this seriously," Zhou Jin said.

Actually, he could have made the decision himself.

The old man has many sons and grandsons, but he doesn't take care of them all.

But it was precisely because of this that Zhou Jin came over, which could also help Zhou He gain some face in front of the old man.

As for Zhou Shenye being here, it was truly a pleasant surprise.

If Zhou Shenye could come to the engagement ceremony, that would be a real moment of glory.

I dare not even think about it; I'd be lucky if he could even come to my wedding.

"I think these few days are all good. What do you think, Shenye?" The old man circled a few dates and handed them to Zhou Shenye.

Zhou Jin looked at Zhou Shenye.

"They're all about the same." Zhou Shenye simply glanced at them twice.

"That's all for now. Let the woman decide on the specifics, and see when it's convenient for them. Don't be impolite," the old man instructed.

"Okay, sure." Zhou Jin took the almanac from the old man who had circled the date.

Having gotten what he wanted, he naturally left happily.

The old man and Zhou Shenye were left in the room.

"What outrageous thing has the third son done to offend you lately?" the old man asked.

Zhou Shenye shook his head.

"What kind of expression do you have? You've replaced him with someone else's daughter-in-law who was already chosen, and now you're not even giving him a friendly look," the old man said discontentedly.

The third brother was too oblivious to notice, but he had noticed the change in Zhou Shenye's attitude.

Seeing that Zhou Shenye remained silent, the old man glared at him.

But I looked at the Buddhist prayer beads spinning in his hand.

The curse that was about to escape his lips stopped him. The old man changed to a worried tone, "Your illness has flared up again? Wasn't it said that it was safe to associate with that girl from the Xie family? Why didn't you..."

The old man was interrupted by Zhou Shenye suddenly standing up.

The prayer beads in his hand slowly came to a stop, and Zhou Shenye's voice was somewhat low, "That girl from the Xie family is indeed someone I can contact."

"I'll keep you by my side whenever I can have contact with you." The old man didn't want Zhou Shenye to suffer like this.

“You’re right,” Zhou Shenye said.

Watching Zhou Shenye's departing figure after he finished speaking, the old man momentarily forgot what he was going to say. He told him to take it with him, but he didn't tell him to take it now.

He hadn't even finished speaking!

-------------------------------------

As soon as Zhou Shenye left the old man's place, he picked up his phone and sent a message to Assistant Feng.

A short while later, a car appeared directly in front of him.

After Assistant Feng sat down in the back passenger seat, he told the driver the destination: the racetrack.

Zhou Shenye, sitting in the back seat, asked after hearing the address given by Assistant Feng, "Who did she go with this time? Was it Zhou He's group again?"

"Miss Xie went alone this time," Assistant Feng answered dutifully.

Ever since Zhou Shenye had the investigation of Xie Qingyu late at night, he has arranged for people to follow Xie Qingyu closely. As soon as she goes out, Assistant Feng can get the news almost immediately.

However, this was the first time Zhou Shenye was going to Xie Qingyu's place, and Assistant Feng only dared to follow orders and didn't even dare to think about the reasons why Zhou Shenye was doing this.

Zhou Shenye was somewhat surprised when he heard that Xie Qingyu was going alone, and then said, "Let's go to the nearby shopping mall first."

When we left the mall and arrived at the racetrack, it wasn't dark yet.

Standing at the finish line, you can see Xie Qingyu driving on the track.

Zhou Shenye was stunned when he saw it. "How many laps has she run?"

The person in charge was right next to him and immediately looked at the staff member who was guarding him.

This is the third lap.

"Go and bring my car over," Zhou Shenye said.

His gaze never left the silver car on the mountain road, the man driving the race car for so many laps.

Zhou Shenye knew that feeling.

The silver race car passed the starting line not far from them and began a new lap.

Not long after, a black race car set off and caught up with the silver race car in no time.

The addition of the black race car ignited the fighting spirit of the previously subdued silver race car, and the moment the two cars were side by side, it was as if a race had been triggered.

Dust was stirred up again on the driveway.

The two cars chased each other, neither giving way.
