Fortunately

Chapter 41 Blind Date
After meeting Zeng Zhiquan, Yan Youwei's mood became very depressed.

She knew that paper could not contain fire, and this matter would be exposed sooner or later.If she continues to have a close relationship with Zeng Zimu, Zeng Zhiquan will never let her go.

Her history does not bear scrutiny.With the financial and material resources of the Zeng family, as long as they search carefully, everything will be found.When it comes time to go to court to sue, Zeng Zimu has a much stronger advantage than her.

He is richer than himself, and this alone can kill people.And besides being the mother of the child, she has no advantage at all.Both of them are also single, but it is a matter of minutes before Zeng Zimu wants to get married.Some women with both talent and beauty are "willing" to be Yang Yang's stepmother.

But it will be difficult for her to marry.A single mother with a child is still working as a reporter, which is a day and night job.No matter how the judge looked at it, he would not award the child to her.If the Zeng family were a little more shameless and then looked for relationship activities...

Yan Youwei couldn't imagine what would happen next.

Her eyes were sore when she looked at Yang Yang these days, thinking that he might be taken away by others, it was as if a piece of flesh had been dug out of his heart, the pain made her whole body explode.

She wants to keep her child no matter what.No matter what method is used.If it's just Zeng Zimu, she has the confidence to persuade the other party to give up the custody of the child.But now that Zeng Zhiquan got involved, the situation became difficult to control.Her former father-in-law is definitely not a fuel-efficient lamp.

Yan Youwei was in a daze while wiping Yang Yang's freshly washed hair.Yang Yang's head was wiped back and forth more than ten times, and the dull kid finally felt that something was wrong, and protested dissatisfiedly: "Mom, don't wipe it, it hurts."

The scalp is about to be wiped off.

Yan Youwei came back to his senses with a jolt, and quickly smiled apologetically at his son, and put down the towel.She went to get a comb to comb the child's hair again, but the mother came in just after combing twice.

Yan's mother has been in a similar state to her daughter for the past two days, and she has no energy.After she came in, she sat down on the small sofa opposite the bed, first sighed, then raised her head, staring straight at her daughter with a pair of dull eyes.

I don't know why, but it looks a bit creepy that way.Yan Youwei immediately asked: "Mom, what's wrong with you. Are you feeling unwell?"

"No, no." Yan's mother obviously had something to say, and after deliberating for a moment, she chose an entry point, "Xiao Wei, you've been very busy recently."

"Yeah, I changed my job and I'm much busier than before. But my salary has also increased. Do you and Dad feel that taking Yangyang is too tiring, or I'll invite an aunt to come back."

"No, no, there are two ready-made labors in the family. What kind of aunt should you hire? Yangyang goes to kindergarten every day, and your father and I are not tired. I am concerned about you and want to ask what you have been up to recently. Since the last time I went back to Ma Huilan After snatching the child, I think you are not the same as before."

Yan Youwei twitched the corners of his mouth, and continued to comb the child's hair: "What's different."

"The mental state is different. I know it's definitely not your mother-in-law's fault. Xiaowei, tell me honestly, are you and Zimu getting on good terms again?"

I'm really afraid of what will come. Why do the parents of the two families misunderstand in this direction.Could it be that she and Zeng Zimu really showed a degree of intimacy beyond the scope of friendship?
Seeing that she didn't speak, Yan's mother continued on her own: "Xiaowei, listen to my mother's advice, don't see Zimu again."

This sentence was completely beyond Yan Youwei's expectation.She originally thought that her mother would persuade them to be together when she saw that she and Zeng Zimu were on good terms.She's been insinuating before.But why did the attitude change so drastically today?

"Mom, don't you want me to be nice to him?"

"To be honest, we are not on the same path as the Zeng family, and you know that in your heart. When you married into the Zeng family, I was very worried. The difference between the two families is too great, so we can't talk on an equal footing. It's a pity that Zimu is such a good son-in-law, but everything has advantages and disadvantages. Zimu's family is too rich, and he himself is very promising, and he is so outstanding. Even if he is devoted to you, there is no guarantee that no other woman will entangle him. This point You should be as clear as your mother. Look at your father when he was young. He is not as good-looking as Zimu, and his money is not as much as others. But even this is changing women one by one, just like changing clothes. Mom has eaten Such a bitter person, of course I don't want you to follow my old path."

Faced with such heartfelt persuasion, Yan Youwei nodded silently.In fact, she also has this concern, Zeng Zimu is too good, she is really unable to keep this man.And she didn't have the courage to live a life like her mother's. Thinking about decades of her husband fooling around with other women outside, this kind of life is really tormented.

Thinking of this, she hated her father again.

"For a family like ours, it's better to honestly find a child from an ordinary family to marry. Find an office worker like you. You two go to work during the day, and your father and I will take care of the housework at home with the children. Come home at night. , let's have a lively dinner together, isn't it better than marrying into the Zeng family? If you think the house is small after remarriage, don't you still have a house under your name? Let's use that as the wedding house. That house is close to us, You can get there on foot. You take Yang Yang back to your home to sleep after dinner at night, isn't it good."

Yan Youwei suddenly felt that the blueprint her mother had drawn for herself was actually quite good.She is just a little woman, and she doesn't have too high aspirations for married life.It's enough to be plain and happy. No wealthy family or president is what she pursues.

The house that the mother mentioned was originally a gift that her parents bought for her after she married Ke Jianzhong.Because her parents bought it with full money, Yan Youwei never regarded the house as her own.

At that time, parents considered that she was a second marriage, and they were afraid that she would not be able to hold up her head in her husband's house, so they bought this house.The house was a gift after marriage, and Ke Jianzhong also had a share.But this man still had a conscience. Before he died, he deliberately dragged her through the divorce procedures, and gave him not a cent of the house.

At that time, Yan Youwei didn't know that he was going to commit suicide, only that he was seriously ill and his days were numbered.When Ke Jianzhong persuaded her to divorce, he said: "It's best to divorce now, and divide the property clearly. You know my mother. If you don't divorce, once I die, she will definitely lose your parents' house. Missing. She will not let the child go, and maybe she will have a lawsuit with you. So it is best to get a divorce, it will be settled once and for all, and everything will be arranged before I die, and I can leave with peace of mind. "

Although Yan Youwei hated him for cheating and betraying herself, she was still moved to tears when she heard these words.After all, this man was good to her, and those hurts disappeared with his death.Thinking of Ke Jianzhong now, Yan Youwei no longer hates him at all.

If Ke Jianzhong didn't die, he and she would probably be able to live the kind of ordinary life that his mother said.But it's useless to say anything now.Where could she find such a man to start a family with?
"Mom, I also want to marry, but I have a child and I'm getting older, so it's really hard to find someone."

"Xiaowei, tell mom the truth, are you and Zimu getting along?"

"Mom, really not."

"That's good. Then I can get to work."

Yan Youwei looked confused: "What are you preparing for?"

"I'm going to give you a blind date. You see, Yangyang is getting older, and it will be difficult to develop a relationship with the new father if you drag it on. Now this is the best situation. The child won't be breastfeeding, and he won't be pestering his mother all day long. But after all, you are less than three years old, and you can still become a family with your new father. Now is a good time, go on a blind date. Find a man to marry and live a good life. Don't let your father and I worry about you all day gone."

"Mom, I've said it all, who would want me to be like this."

"You don't have to worry about it. I will find the candidate. We don't want people's money or money, as long as they are nice. It doesn't matter if you are older, sincerity is the most important thing for you. It's settled like that. When the time comes, I will find someone to come over, so don't make excuses and don't go. If you sleep more these two days, Yangyang will sleep with me. Only when you have enough sleep will you be beautiful. Although my daughter is over 25, she is dressed up If you say [-], no one will believe it. If you are so beautiful, you won’t be able to get married. Is there any drama for those crooked melons? Daughter, we must have confidence in ourselves!”

After Yan's mother said this, she directly reached out to pick up Yang Yang and went out.Yan Youwei was left alone with the comb in a daze.But my mother's words reminded her that finding a man and remarrying is actually the only way out.If she remarries, she is no longer a single mother. If the family is complete, it is very important to file a custody lawsuit.Besides, if she didn't have a relationship with Zeng Zimu, Zeng Zhiquan wouldn't bother her anymore, and maybe he wouldn't check Yang Yang's life experience.

It's just that she has a negative attitude towards whether anyone is willing to marry her.

But it turns out that she really underestimated her mother's abilities and methods.Only three days after she agreed to a blind date, her mother got her the partner's phone number.

And this man is not short and poor, he is one year older than Yan Youwei and has never been married.Currently working in an accounting firm, the annual salary is about RMB 20.

Yan Youwei himself finds it inconceivable that such a person wants to go on a blind date with her.

But she went anyway.No matter how bad it is, it can't compare to the current situation. No matter how the other party reacts, just treat it as a friend.

The place where they had a blind date was at a western restaurant in a hotel. The standard of the place was not bad, and the other party took the initiative to make an appointment there, which seemed very sincere.This made Yan Youwei even more curious, what kind of medicine does this man who is said to be called Wu Chu sell in the gourd?

When the day of the blind date came, Yan Youwei dressed up and went out.It's almost the Chinese New Year now, and the festive atmosphere is quite strong on the streets.Yan Youwei couldn't help being infected by this lively atmosphere, and kept smiling all the way there.

So when she sat down opposite Wu Chu, she looked pretty good.With light and delicate makeup and freshly dyed long hair, apart from the fact that Yan Youwei had a child, she can really be regarded as a top-notch woman in the eyes of blind date men.

Wu Chu saw her startled for a moment, then smiled lightly and said, "Miss Yan is so beautiful today."

Faced with this kind of compliment, Yan Youwei could only smile slightly.She skillfully shook out the napkin and spread it on the table. Just as she was about to reach for water, she looked up and saw a man not far away pushing open the door of the restaurant and coming in.

Her outstretched hand froze in mid-air, and forgot to put it down for a while.

Zeng Zimu, who was more than ten meters away, saw Yan Youwei almost at a glance, and had a panoramic view of the man sitting opposite her.

At that time, there was only one thought in his mind: a blind date?This woman is really promising.

The moment Yan Youwei saw Zeng Zimu, Yan Youwei's blood almost froze.

For some reason, she felt very guilty. It was really embarrassing to be caught by her ex-husband dating another man.What's more, she had sex with this man not long ago, and she felt guilty no matter how she thought about it.She immediately put herself in the ranks of bad women.

She wondered what Zeng Zimu's reaction would be, would he walk up to her arrogantly, pretending to be chic to greet her?Or will he stab this man named Wu Chu mercilessly?No matter how you look at it, Zeng Zimu has the capital to look down upon Wu Chu in front of him.

But Yan Youwei always fails to guess the ending of the riddles recently.None of the things she thought happened.Zeng Zimu only glanced at her indifferently, then withdrew his gaze and walked straight in.The waiter who walked in front of him led him upstairs directly. Obviously, he was a distinguished guest and would not sit in the lobby downstairs.

Yan Youwei's eyes followed his figure unconsciously, until Zeng Zimu disappeared at the stairs, then she turned around and touched her hot cheek.

At this moment, Wu Chu said, "That was Zeng Zimu just now."

He used an affirmative sentence pattern, Yan Youwei couldn't help being curious: "Do you know him?"

"Of course I know him. He and I were in the same class. We came out of the same university, but with different majors. He used to be a famous figure in the school. I don't think anyone would not know him."

"What, you went to the same university as him?"

"Of course." A smile appeared on Wu Chu's white face, "So Miss Yan, we are also alumni. Don't you remember me?"

Yan Youwei finally realized that she had guessed correctly.She felt strange when Wu Chu agreed to go on a blind date with her.She didn't really want to fall in love with someone when she came today, the main reason was curiosity.

Now the results are in.This Wu Chu was actually her senior. They used to go to the same university.Obviously he knew himself, but she couldn't think of him.

"That, you know? We met in school before?"

"I've seen it more than once. When I played with Zeng Zimu on the court, you often helped him buy water. At that time, the people we played with always talked about it, saying that you two should be a couple. When other people fall in love, I feel that this world is too mysterious."

"Wait, please don't make random definitions, okay? Just because I bought water for Zeng Zimu doesn't mean we're in love. We're just friends and we've known each other for a long time."

"Tsk tsk." Wu Chu smiled badly, "The water is for nothing."

Yan Youwei was already flipping through the menu, but when he heard this, he put the menu down again: "Mr. Wu, so you came to meet me today for a purpose? It's to see how I, a woman who didn't know anything, is doing now. It's over, and then go back and gossip with those teammates of yours?"

"No, I'm here to date you."

"Blind date, do you know me? Do you know that I have a son who is almost three years old?"

"Of course I know. The introducers have told me. You are now a TV reporter, and you should be very busy."

"It's really busy. Today is the rare time I'm free. So you shouldn't waste time on me, because I may rarely have time to date you."

Wu Chu didn't answer, but called the waiter to order food first.Yan Youwei also ordered the staple food along with her, and then she drank water with her head depressed and didn't speak.

Wu Chu was very natural: "It seems that the person who is not serious about this blind date is not me, but you, junior."

"Why on earth did you want to go on a blind date with me? Do you have some hidden disease? Otherwise, you are in good condition, so why bother to find a divorced person with children."

"This also doubts my physical health. Well, I will go for a physical examination another day, and I will show you the report later."

"Wu Chu..." Yan Youwei's tone was somewhat helpless.

"Yan Youwei, I came on a blind date because I really like you. I fell in love with you when you were always hanging around the stadium. It's just that you were Zeng Zimu's woman at the time and I didn't have the nerve to do it. Now I heard that you Divorced, I think my chance has come, so I came to you. Why, is it wrong to like someone for more than ten years, shouldn't it?"

Is she in the rhythm of love?Yan Youwei felt that she would not be so lucky.But Wu Chu's expression didn't look like he was joking.

She was quite helpless: "Have you really liked me for so many years?"

"Isn't it possible? You were very beautiful when you were young, but you haven't become ugly now, and you have the charm of a mature woman. It is said that first love is the most memorable, so can't I be infatuated once?"

Yan Youwei was completely speechless.She really didn't expect to meet such a "superior" for the first blind date in her life.This superb product does not contain derogatory meanings, but it can't be said that it has much commendatory meaning.

In short, she was pestered and chatted with Wu Chu for three hours that day, starting from her life in college, and she covered everything in detail.Wu Chu is a very talkative person, and he gave a complete account of his past.He said he had a girlfriend before, but they broke up.

When talking about this, Yan Youwei laughed at him: "Didn't you say you liked me for more than ten years? Why are you still in love?"

"I always thought you were married long ago. I can't be a bachelor all my life."

Yan Youwei lost his temper completely, and could only chat with him until almost ten o'clock before going home.Wu Chuyou came by car, and after taking her home, he asked her without giving up: "Are we in love?"

"of course not."

"Then I'll chase you from today on, okay?"

Yan Youwei rolled his eyes at him: "As you please."

After saying this, she quickly went upstairs and left Wu Chu downstairs alone.Because she was walking so fast, she didn't notice at all that in the night, under the faint street lights, Wu Chu's originally thin and fair face showed a gloomy smile.

As soon as Yan Youwei entered the house, she was in a hurry to go to the toilet. Yan's mother followed her behind until she was locked outside the toilet, and she didn't give up asking questions.

"Mom, can we talk about it after I go out?"

"Tell me first, how does it look like, compared with the photo?"

"almost."

"Is he really only one year older than you?"

Yan You slightly boiled water to wash his hands, and didn't bother to answer this question.When he opened the door and came out, he smiled and said, "Why, do you still have to ask me to check his ID card? Don't worry, he is indeed only one year older than me. He is from the same school as me, and we knew each other before."

"Really?"

"it is true."

Yan Youwei roughly explained the content of the conversation with Wu Chu today.But she deliberately concealed the fact that the other party has liked her for more than ten years, and instead explained to her mother this way: "He didn't come to meet me on a blind date at all, but he didn't see me in ten years, so he came to see me. Mu's matter is probably a good show. You, don't get your hopes up."

"Are you serious?"

"of course it's true."

"Oh, then I have to talk to his grandma. Why is this man like this? It's really disgusting to see my daughter's jokes in the name of a blind date. "

Yan Youwei saw that her mother had the urge to take the phone, so she quickly stopped her: "Mom, don't be impulsive. What does her grandma know, she is just a kind match. Don't make the relationship stiff. Although he and I can't be lovers, friends It can still be done. After all, he graduated from a school."

When Yan's mother saw that her hope was shattered, she looked listless.In the next few days, she also took a break from the idea of ​​finding a blind date for her daughter.What's more, even if she wanted to look for it for a while, she couldn't find it.

The young man surnamed Wu last time was a bit strange.Although such conditions are not one in a hundred, it is not difficult to find a girl who has never been married.At that time, she thought that the world was falling, and it finally hit their house.It's really frustrating to have a lot of fun for a long time.

Yan Youwei got a temporary peace, so he didn't care about this matter.The work of the TV station is still busy, and even eating on time has become a luxury for her, so she has no time to think about the big things in her life.

That guy named Wu Chu didn't bother her too much.It's just occasional text messages and occasional phone calls.Sometimes Yan Youwei can't answer the phone calls, he is not angry, and the voice is still smiling when he calls next time.

When Yan Youwei occasionally thinks of him, he always wonders what is this man plotting?But often before you have time to think for a minute, you will be interrupted by the work at hand.

It seemed that she had just returned from holding a cup of coffee in the pantry that day, before her butt touched the chair, her immediate boss came over and gave her a very important task.

There was a chain-vehicle collision on one of the city's busiest highways.She had to go to the scene immediately with the photographer and bring back the first report so that it could be broadcast on the noon news.

Yan Youwei put down the cup and set off immediately, arriving at the scene as quickly as possible.The place has been surrounded by the police, and roughly ten cars rear-end it.The road section at the scene of the incident has been blocked, and other vehicles must make a detour.

There were quite a few onlookers standing outside the cordon, all of whom looked fearful.They should be the driver or passenger in the accident.Seeing this scene, Yan Youwei hurried up to interview her, but as soon as she took two steps, someone hurried past her with a stretcher.

The patients on the three stretchers were all bloody and almost lost their shape.Yan Youwei had also interviewed the scene of a traffic accident before, but it was the first time he had seen such a tragic situation.She was stunned for three seconds when she saw it, then covered her mouth, rushed into the grass by the roadside and retched.

She's still too young to anticipate this kind of situation.

The fire in her stomach hurt so badly, Yan Youwei bent over and tried hard to suppress the urge to vomit.She hadn't eaten much in the morning, so she had nothing to vomit at the moment.But that uncomfortable feeling hit her heart wave after wave, causing her to tremble involuntarily.

Just when she was so uncomfortable that she couldn't help herself, a powerful big hand pressed heavily on her shoulder.Immediately afterwards, I heard a familiar voice say in my ear: "Okay, hold on, have you never seen such a battle as a reporter?"
