Chapter 916: Chapter 916 You Better Not Listen

"So he would definitely consider it? Why, are you planning to set me up with someone? Does Uncle Su have a younger brother?"

Suizi almost blurted out in response to her senior sister’s candid reaction—who needs a younger brother when you have the real deal right here?

But upon reflection, she realized she didn’t know what the man’s stance was. If she spoke too confidently now and Su Zhe wasn’t interested, wouldn’t that make things awkward for both her senior sister and Su Zhe?

"I do have a suitable candidate in mind. I’ll introduce you in a few days, but—would you mind a divorced man with a slight disability, who has no children? But I must say he’s a man whose character shines brightly, has strong professional skills, has a stable income, and a really good job."

Suizi was just short of revealing Su Zhe’s ID card number.

With everything said to this point, her senior sister, with her straightforward thinking, still didn’t understand.

"A disability? Is it severe? Could it affect future children?" Her senior sister was quite concerned about good genetics and upbringing.

"Absolutely not, it won’t affect that at all. It’s not congenital, and he’s been in good health for years; you wouldn’t notice it unless you look very closely. Senior sister, if it was someone else, I definitely wouldn’t dare say this. I’m afraid you’d think I’m belittling you, especially when introducing a divorced man with a disability to someone as outstanding as you..."

"Hey, I know you. You’re not one to have bad intentions. Since you dare introduce him to me, then he must follow the conservation of energy law. I guess his positive qualities must vastly outweigh his history of marriage and disability."

As her senior sister spoke, images of Su Zhe interacting with the boy and girl twins came to mind.

Uncle Su was simply a man whose brilliance made people overlook the minor issue with his leg. She couldn’t understand how anyone could say such malicious things to hurt him.

Suizi felt as if she had found a kindred spirit, shaking her senior sister’s hand with enthusiasm.

Pottery, oh, this is going to become ironclad pottery—her senior sister understood her.

Now that the woman’s attitude was resolute, Suizi sent Yu Jingting to Su Zhe’s laboratory to gather some intelligence.

Although she and Yu Jingting both wishfully thought these two were a great match, arranged marriages were out of fashion; it was still necessary to ask the parties involved for their opinions.

Suizi was also a bit concerned. Su Zhe now seemed like a sage, showing no interest in women, which made her fear that even Yu Jingting might have trouble discerning his true intentions.

Back at home, she whispered behind closed doors with her mother-in-law and her own mother, all three women slightly worried.

"Asking other men would be simple. Just ask them directly if they have a good impression of the girl and whether they’d want to go out for a meal. After the meal, things would usually be settled. But with Su Zhe..."

Chen Lijun sighed, rubbing her belly. The baby inside gave a strong kick as if sensing its mother’s worry.

Wang Cuihua nodded in agreement.

"Right? When it comes to Su Zhe, if you mention setting him up with someone, he says he’s too busy or doesn’t want to delay the girl, hoping he would suggest meeting up and seeing how things go is difficult."

Deep down, Suizi absolutely agreed with both mothers’ opinions; Su Zhe was indeed a tough nut to crack.

Yet, she still held immense faith in Yu Jingting.

"We definitely can’t get anything out of asking directly, but our Jingting has an ironclad bond with Su Zhe, and he’s clever and resourceful. He’ll definitely come up with a way."

"Even if he’s capable, can he pry open Su Zhe’s head and stuff his own ideas inside?" Wang Cuihua remained pessimistic. "Matchmaking should be consensual, we only work as intermediaries if there’s mutual interest, otherwise, we’ll be forcibly pushing them together, and that wouldn’t be fair to the junior sister, would it?"

Suizi understood this reasoning.

She felt that Su Zhe shouldn’t be completely indifferent to her senior sister.

But that was just her own intuition. Whether or not that was actually the case, Su Zhe would have to express his stance himself,

"Ah, the date for Hong Kong’s return has been set, but when will there be any news regarding Su Zhe’s life matters?" Wang Cuihua’s words prompted a collective sigh from the women in the room.

Even Suizi felt that the matter was difficult to handle. But that evening, Yu Jingting came back smelling of soap and triumphantly announced a big development.

"Tomorrow at noon, Dong Lai Shun’s Su Zhe is treating us, invite your senior sister, have a meal first to get to know each other, and if the two of them want to see each other again, we can invite her parents and treat them to another meal."

"???" Suizi’s mouth formed an ’o’ shape.

Yu Jingting was extremely proud, he just relished his wife’s admiring gaze.

"You convinced Su Zhe?! How did you do it?!" Wang Cuihua was shocked, her first thought was whether her son had threatened Su Zhe?

"Did you hit him? Scold him? Tie him up and beat him?"

Yu Jingting glanced sideways at his old mom.

"What are you making me out to be? Su Zhe is a friend of our family, is that how you treat friends, according to the moral code of Jianghu?"

Even Siye put down his tea mug, asking with great interest.

"So it was Su Zhe who said he wanted to meet a girl for a blind date? That really doesn’t fit his character. Or did you fool him, not telling him it was a blind date?"

"You all really look down on people too much. Am I the type to handle things carelessly? Both of them are highly educated and qualified people. With tricks like deception and concealment, you might fool someone for a moment, but can you fool them for a lifetime?"

The way he said it was with such righteousness, like a refreshing breeze—if only the family didn’t know exactly what kind of person he was, they might actually believe he was a good guy.

"So, how did you persuade Su Zhe—and also, why is your hair still wet?"

Suizi’s nose twitched. White orchids mixed with his own scent, it was a smell she never tired of.

"I took Su Zhe to bathe, ah, but don’t worry, I didn’t soak in the pool, I’m still clean." Yu Jingting turned his back to his parents, winking and grimacing at Suizi.

Illness enters through the mouth, he understood!

The food hygiene safety of his wife was under his control, all secure.

"You locked him in the Toilet and threatened him, right?" Siye immediately thought of when he had just acknowledged his son, and his son had locked the door of the Toilet, almost causing him to have an accident in the Bathhouse.

This painful memory was too dark, and Siye never wanted to recall it for the rest of his life.

Yu Jingting looked down on his old man with disdain.

"What do you take me for? Am I the type to use the same trick over and over? Can’t I have some new tricks?"

Suizi swayed his arm, cooing in a soft and sticky manner: "Good Jingting, handsome husband, big darling, don’t keep us in suspense any longer, tell us."

"Oh dear mother..." Wang Cuihua sighed. For a taste of the hot gossip, the sacrifice was indeed substantial.

"You, and you, you too. Go inside." Yu Jingting noticed Jiaojiao leading Little Luobo "just happen" to pass by, each of them with ears pricked up, eavesdropping.

The next part of the conversation was not for children’s ears.

Jiaojiao’s mouth almost reached behind her ears, always having to shoo the kids away whenever there was talk not meant for them.

Siye squinted, observing Yu Jingting’s up-to-no-good expression, and suddenly stood up, pulling along Wang Cuihua who was sitting and eagerly waiting for the gossip.

"Let’s go back inside, don’t bother with this little scoundrel."

Wang Cuihua was so eager to hear the outcome, and as her partner dragged her away she was reluctantly looking back.

Yu Shuisheng was tugging her arm and forcefully pulling her away, and right before the door closed, they could still hear Siye’s earnest voice:

"Nothing serious ever comes out of Yu Tiegen’s mouth, better you don’t listen."
