Qiu Zheyan once heard Zhuang Hanxue mention his elder brother, but he didn't give details. He only vaguely knew that he was in his forties this year and lived abroad.
Don't know how real people are.
Zhuang Hanxue couldn't stay idle, chatted with him in the car, and said in a rambling manner: "My brother came back this time to bring his child for the second operation. The child he adopted is full of diseases, and he has to do it many times." Operation."
"That child was abandoned because he was born sick. It must have been abandoned because he favored boys over girls."
"His parents are so irresponsible. If they didn't want to raise a child, they shouldn't have had it in the first place."
"Fortunately, she came through all hardships and met my brother. My brother will definitely raise her well."
"My older brother took a better-paying job to support this kid."
Qiu Zheyan quickly interjected, "That means your niece is coming too?"
Zhuang Hanxue: "Yes."
Qiu Zheyan: "Then I should bring a gift for the little girl. How old is she?"
Zhuang Hanxue thought for a while: "It seems to be four or five years old?"
Qiu Zheyan glanced at the map.
After planning the driving route, after a few minutes of detour, I entered a gold store in a hurry, bought a gold bracelet, and clearly stated: "It should be engraved with words similar to wishing health and longevity."
The clerk came up with three recommendations, and he quickly selected one, packed it and took it away.
Zhuang Hanxue glanced at the phone and was amazed: "It took less than ten minutes."
Qiu Zheyan said: "There is no time to dawdle."
Rushing to the airport in such a hurry happened to be stuck on time. Just as they found the place, Zhuang Hanxue's brother also appeared. This man doesn't look like he is forty-five years old, he is tall and handsome, and he is taller than Zhuang Hanxue. He is hugging a little girl, and the girl is sleeping on his shoulder with her arms around his neck. Hands pushing luggage carts.
Zhuang Hanxue came forward to say hello with a smile: "Brother."
Zhuang Hanxue's eldest brother was quite surprised and said, "You actually arrived on time?"
Zhuang Hanxue didn't blush: "Because the driver is a punctual person."
Qiu Zheyan had some ominous premonition in his heart.
But when Zhuang Hanxue's eldest brother looked at him and asked, "Is this your friend? Do you still have such a reliable friend?"
Sure enough, Zhuang Hanxue never mentioned himself to his elder brother.
Qiu Zheyan always knew that the two of them were together because of his unilateral pursuit. So far, Zhuang Hanxue has never promised him anything. Because of the many lessons learned from the past, he didn't dare to ask Zhuang Hanxue for a guarantee so soon.
How should he introduce himself
Originally, he thought that Zhuang Hanxue's elder brother had a homosexual himself, so he shouldn't have any objection to his younger brother's relationship with men. But thinking about it carefully, it seemed uncertain that his elder brother might not approve of their relationship. There are also men who have brothers in the family, so they feel that the responsibility of family reproduction can be entrusted to brothers, and they can pursue true love without restraint. What if his eldest brother is this type of person
But what frustrates him the most is that Zhuang Hanxue never mentioned himself to his elder brother.
Even though they had slept together many times, he thought they were having a serious relationship.
It's better not to startle the snake.
[I am his friend.]—He should introduce himself like this, so as to take the overall situation into consideration.
At this moment.
Zhuang Hanxue scratched his head and said lightly, "This is my boyfriend."
Like throwing a bomb at random.
Everyone was stunned.
Qiu Zheyan blushed.
His confidence, which was still erratic just now, instantly swelled up.
Zhuang Hanxue gave him a tug, and introduced him to his stunned elder brother: "This is my elder brother, Zhuang Hanchen."
Qiu Zheyan hurriedly handed over the gift, because his body was stiff, as if a triad boy met his elder brother and bowed a standard 90 degrees: "Brother, hello, I am Qiu Zheyan, and I am Zhuang Hanxue's boyfriend! This is what I give to you." Prepared gifts."
He raised his head and looked at Zhuang Hanchen's sharp needle-like eyes, his heart was beating wildly, and the emotion of being finished hit his head, and his head was hot, so he bowed again, blurted out, and said in a loud voice: "I want to be with you." He is married!"
Let alone Zhuang Hanchen, even Zhuang Hanxue was dumbfounded.
Zhuang Hanxue laughed: "You woke up my niece."
Qiu Zheyan's ears were red: "Yes, I'm sorry."
Zhuang Hanchen felt a headache from the scene of flying dogs and dogs, sighed, and said: "Let's go. I have booked a hotel, take me to the hotel."
After getting in the car, Qiu Zheyan said again: "I'm sorry, brother, I should have booked the hotel."
Zhuang Hanchen said, "It's okay. I never counted on you."
He didn't seem to have any interest in talking to Qiu Zheyan, and his attitude was indifferent from beginning to end.
Turning to ask Zhuang Hanxue: "Why didn't you tell me before that you like men now?"
Zhuang Hanxue said disapprovingly, "You didn't ask me."
Zhuang Hanchen: "You should always tell your family when you are in love."
Zhuang Hanxue: "Back when you fell in love with brother Qiming, you didn't tell me all the time. I didn't know until you eloped with him."
Zhuang Hanchen choked for a moment, he was really wronged: "It's different, how could I easily come out of the closet at that time? I have liked men since before, but didn't you change girlfriends every day when you were in your twenties?"
Zhuang Hanxue immediately retorted: "How can there be every day? Change one every week at most."
Zhuang Hanxue: "Is this the point?"
Zhuang Hanxue curled his lips: "Just treat me as if I suddenly woke up."
Qiu Zheyan kept looking at the rearview mirror in a panic, he couldn't join the battle of the brothers.
But soon the war ended with Zhuang Hanxue's cheating: "Every time we meet, you start to scold me, can you stop doing this? I'm in my thirties. And my daughter is here, arguing in front of children How bad. Like our parents."
Zhuang Hanchen said: "I'm in my thirties, and I'm still not serious."
Although Zhuang Hanchen didn't say it clearly, but arguing with his younger brother in front of him was obviously dissatisfied with his younger brother's boyfriend. But he secretly called "Big Brother", but the other party did not refuse.
Qiu Zheyan graciously helped carry the luggage, sent the eldest brother to the door of the room, and asked for his contact information cheekily, and said, "Brother, shall I book a hotel to entertain you tonight?"
Zhuang Hanchen refused: "I made an appointment to take the child to the doctor in the afternoon. I don't know what time it will be."
Zhuang Hanxue: "You get off work late, I'll take my brother to dinner."
Qiu Zheyan respectfully said: "There is nothing to do today, I can leave work early. If there is anything, you can call me at any time."
Zhuang Hanxue stayed with his elder brother and went to the hospital to help run errands.
Qiu Zheyan hurried back to the company. He was very efficient today, waiting for Zhuang Hanxue's call, but he never got it. He got off work early in the evening and went to have a meal.
It was pretty harmonious at the dinner table.
"How did you and my brother meet?"
"We met online by playing games, and after getting in touch with each other in reality, we felt that each other was pretty good."
"how long have you been together."
"It's been two months since we formally communicated."
"It looks like they've already lived together?"
"Yes… "
"He told me that he doesn't go to work, but plays at home every day? Do you agree with that?"
"Whether he wants to go to work or not, I will follow him."
"But he is a man, how can he not have a job of his own?"
"Well… "
Zhuang Hanxue couldn't help interjecting: "What's the matter? Why do men have to work hard and bear the pressure? Why are men not hard enough and hard enough, so they are laughed at and called useless and worthless. Don't you think it's wrong? I Isn’t the contribution of being a househusband not a contribution?”
The elder brother said: "You are so unreasonable. A person should have a job. Especially a lazy bone like you."
Zhuang Hanxue raised his chin and said confidently, "Xiaoqiu can afford me. I can live as I want. I'm just so worthless."
Seeing that his eldest brother seemed to be angry, Qiu Zheyan held his breath, thinking anxiously in his heart how to smooth things over.
The eldest brother said: "You are still very talkative. You are still a househusband, do you cook, sweep the floor, and do housework at home?"
Zhuang Hanxue said categorically, "I won't do it. Xiaoqiu hired a housekeeper to do the housework. It's better for professionals to do this kind of thing."
The eldest brother asked: "Then play at home every day? Eat and sleep? Don't you think it's a barren life?"
Zhuang Hanxue snapped his fingers and said, "I play three or four games every day, do a lot of dungeons, walk the dog, play with Xiaoqiu, and sometimes go shopping. I feel very fulfilled."
Qiu Zheyan quickly said: "I cherish him very much, and I never asked him to do housework. When I am with him, I don't want him to take care of my daily life at home like a nanny."
The two of them sang together, and the elder brother was so angry that he couldn't speak.
Zhuang Hanxue said: "Why do you have to fight and compete as a man? Can't you escape? Everyone has their own way of life. You have your life, and I have mine. Although we are brothers, we are still different. Take care of your life? This is my life, I'm happy now, and there's nothing wrong with that."
The eldest brother said: "It is impossible to be happy all the time... There will always be times when you are not happy. What are you going to do when the time comes?"
Zhuang Hanxue didn't seem to take anything to heart, he didn't have the slightest bit of distress, and said heartlessly: "We'll talk about what happens when the time comes."
on the way home.
Qiu Zheyan said worriedly: "Your elder brother doesn't seem to like me very much."
Zhuang Hanxue comforted him: "I came out suddenly, so I need to give him time to accept the reality. My elder brother is a teenager, and my parents didn't care about me when I was young. He is more like my father than my brother. Even now, he still subconsciously meddles with me, his old problem, please be considerate of him, he has no malicious intentions."
Qiu Zheyan couldn't help imagining a bitter scene in his head. The irresponsible parents worked outside the home, the youngest son was left alone, and the eldest son worked hard to raise his younger brother. The two brothers depended on each other.
Of course Qiu Zheyan knew that the elder brother of the Zhuang family definitely had no bad intentions towards his younger brother, and it was because he was worried about this incomprehensible younger brother that he was so strict.
Zhuang Hanxue said: "He is very suspicious. He talked to me and worried that I would be cheated by you. I explained to him for a long time, and my mouth was almost dry."
Qiu Zheyan's heart skipped a beat.
Haven't had time to ask yet.
Zhuang Hanxue thought jumped to another place: "Ah, it's Jiang Ruoyun's billboard."
"Speaking of which, as soon as you met today, you told my eldest brother that you would marry me."
When it comes to marriage, Qiu Zheyan has no time to worry about other things, and his heart is immediately hung here again.
Zhuang Hanxue seemed to think of something interesting, and laughed to himself. He straightened his face and imitated his elder brother's expression: "My elder brother said, it's so strange that you can talk about marriage casually. Occasionally, isn’t this coercion? Hahahaha.”
After the performance, he returned to normal: "I was also shocked."
"When I saw Jiang Ruoyun, I remembered it. She also proposed to marry me before."
Qiu Zheyan was amused by his actions: "Really? Then Bei Yao also proposed to you?" Bei Yao is also a popular young actress.
Zhuang Hanxue said as if choosing a concubine: "That's not true, I don't like her style. At that time Xiaoyun and I proposed to get married, but I said no, she slapped me, so we broke up."
Qiu Zheyan thought he was telling a story: "Well, well, you have said many times that you were very popular with women before."
Zhuang Hanxue said regretfully, "Now that I'm older, you are the only one who likes me."
Qiu Zheyan said: "When you were in your early twenties, I was still a middle school student."
But just now when Zhuang Hanxue mentioned his refusal to get married, Qiu Zheyan was still a bit uneasy, now he calmed down and thought, is this a hint of Zhuang Hanxue's polite refusal
No, not likely.
This man with a simple mind like a paramecium can't do something so complicated as hiding a knife in his words.
He just said what came to mind.
Mostly half true.
It was true that a woman had wanted to marry him, and it was true that he had refused.
Qiu Zheyan is the ultimate impatient person. He stared at the road ahead and thought to himself, why not take this opportunity to ask Zhuang Hanxue his views on marriage.
Qiu Zheyan tentatively said: "You seem to think I'm joking. But in fact... I said today that I want to get married. I'm serious. Ah Xue, what do you think?"
