The world of film and television begins from childhood

Zhou Chen fastened his seat belt, started the car and drove along the route specified by Xue Sumei. After a few minutes, he arrived at the gate of a residential community.

"This is it, this is it."

Xue Sumei in the back seat asked Zhou Chen to stop. Zhou Chen first parked the car, then quickly got out and opened the door for Xue Sumei.

"Xiao Zhou, look at yourself. You've made me feel embarrassed."

Although she said embarrassedly, Xue Sumei's face was full of smiles. It was obvious that Zhou Chen's actions made her very happy.

Zhou Chen: "Auntie, you are too polite. This is what I should do. Then, Auntie, I won't take you in."

Xue Sumei waved her hand: "No, no, Xiao Zhou, go ahead. I'll help you find out if there's a storefront nearby that's suitable for you in the next two days. If I find one, I'll call you."

"Thank you, Auntie. What about Miss Yang Tao?" Zhou Chen asked cautiously.

Xue Sumei smiled and said, "When our Taozi has rested, I will arrange for you to meet. Just wait for news from Auntie."

Zhou Chen didn't know what Xue Sumei meant, because he couldn't see the answer he wanted from Xue Sumei's face, but now that things had come to this, he didn't know what to say.

"Well, I'll wait for your good news, Auntie."

Zhou Chen drove away. Although Xue Sumei's reaction today was not very good, he was not worried, because when he said that he worked in the Civil Affairs Bureau before, he was not just saying it casually, but had a purpose.

As long as Xue Sumei did not completely reject him, she would definitely find a way to find out about his situation, and would definitely go to Guoran at that time, because Guoran had a good brother, who was Yang Tao's cousin's husband. So his previous invitation to Guoran for dinner and joining was also part of his plan.

Watching Zhou Chen driving away, Xue Sumei frowned. She didn't agree directly because she still had doubts in her heart.

"Auntie."

Suddenly, a voice came from behind, which startled Xue Sumei. She turned around and said, "Qing'er, it's you. How come you have time to come here today?"

The person who came was her niece Su Qing.

Su Qing replied, "Today we have a day off, it's my turn to rest, I have nothing to do at home, so I came to see you, Auntie. Auntie, I saw you just got out of that BMW, who was the man who sent you back?"

She just happened to arrive here and was about to enter the community when she suddenly saw her aunt getting out of a black BMW. She was very surprised, but she did not go forward immediately. Instead, she waited until the person left and only her aunt was left before she walked over.

Xue Sumei said: "It's a young man who wants to pursue Taozi."

"Really? That BMW is not cheap. Auntie, how is this person doing?"

Su Qing immediately became interested. Not only was Xue Sumei worried about Yang Tao, but Su Qing, as her cousin, was also worried about Yang Tao, hoping that Yang Tao could find a good husband.

Xue Sumei hesitated for a moment, "How should I put it? This young man's situation is a bit complicated. I don't know what his situation is."

Su Qing looked confused: "Aunt, what do you mean?"

"Qing'er, let's go back and talk about it in detail. Please help me analyze and see if what this young man said is true or false."

Xue Sumei took Su Qing and walked towards the community. After returning home, she told Su Qing what happened today.

"Qing'er, how much truth and falsehood do you think the young man named Zhou Chen said?"

Su Qing was also very surprised after hearing this, but she was not as decisive as Xue Sumei.

"Aunt, it's really hard to say, but the BMW he drove you home in just now is not cheap, it's worth at least 500,000 or 600,000 yuan."

"Is that car so valuable?"

Xue Sumei was surprised and doubtful. Although she could see that the car was unusual, she didn't expect it to be worth five or six hundred thousand.

"It shouldn't be that bad. When Xifeng was buying a car before, I looked at some cars. A BMW like that is worth hundreds of thousands."

Su Qing is a young man after all. Although he is not very familiar with cars, he still knows much more than Xue Sumei.

"And what Zhou Chen said is also true. Although civil servants have a stable job, they don't earn much. Such jobs are earned through hard work. Aunt, I know that your elders value stable jobs, but stable jobs do not mean income. Times are different now. Young people care more about the quality of life. Between a man worth tens of millions and a stable civil servant, I think most women would choose the former."

"Is that so?" Xue Sumei's face was full of doubt. She still felt that a stable job was the most important.

Su Qing analyzed, "If what Zhou Chen said is true, then think about it, Auntie. How many young people can make tens of millions of dollars from nothing with their own abilities, even though both their parents are gone? This shows that he is capable. A capable man would definitely not be content to be a civil servant with a fixed salary. It is human nature to go out and work on his own."

Xue Sumei thought for a moment and asked, "Qing'er, do you mean to let Taozi get in touch with this young man named Zhou Chen?"

Su Qing interrupted: "Aunt, I don't think we should rush this. You are right. We should test it out first. Didn't he ask you to help him look for shops? We can help him find a few first, and then let him choose. If..., wait."

Su Qing suddenly stopped talking. Xue Sumei was listening attentively. When she saw Su Qing stop talking, she immediately asked, "Qing'er, what's wrong?"

Su Qing said, "Aunt, I suddenly remembered that Xifeng once told me that he had a friend who worked in the Civil Affairs Bureau. If Zhou Chen really worked in the Civil Affairs Bureau, Xifeng must know the situation."

When Xue Sumei heard this, she immediately urged, "What are you waiting for? Call now."

"Hit me, I'll hit you right away."

Su Qing picked up the phone and called her husband. After explaining the situation, she asked Duan Xifeng to find out what happened.

The third update, please support!!!

Chapter 77 Satisfied Xue Sumei

"how is it going?"

When Xue Sumei saw Su Qing hung up the phone, she immediately asked anxiously.

She was really worried about her daughter's marriage. She finally met a young man she liked and of course hoped that everything was true.

Su Qing smiled and said, "Aunt, Xifeng asked his buddy at the Civil Affairs Bureau, and the answer he got was that everything that Zhou Chen said should be true. Xifeng even said that his buddy had a good relationship with Zhou Chen, and they often drank and ate together. Zhou Chen also invited his buddy to join the bridal shop he was about to open."

Xue Sumei said happily: "Is it true?"

Su Qing: "It must be true. Xifeng said that his buddy is very reliable and would not lie to him. Auntie, your worries are gone now. If Zhou Chen is really as good as you said, he is definitely a good match for Taozi. The only thing to worry about is that he is three years younger than Taozi. I wonder if Taozi can accept it?"

"She dared not to agree."

Xue Sumei glared and said harshly, "A girl is three years older than me and has a lot of money. Xiao Zhou doesn't mind, so why should she mind? No, we can't let Xiao Zhou go. We must take him down and make him and Taozi successful."

"Aunt, I think this is an opportunity. Didn't he ask you to help find a storefront? We can find a place close to our home so that it will be easier to get in touch with him. And didn't you say that he hasn't bought a wedding house yet? This is also an opportunity. If he can really get along with Taozi, he can definitely buy a house close by."

Hearing Su Qing's suggestion, Xue Sumei nodded repeatedly: "That's right, the family opposite our house is about to sell their house. It would be best if my daughter and son-in-law could live opposite in the future. Besides, Xiao Zhou doesn't have parents yet, so I will have to rely on him to take care of the child in the future..."

The more she thought about it, the more she felt that she couldn't miss Zhou Chen. She had to make Zhou Chen and her daughter a pair.

"Yes, auntie, if Taozi can really get together with him, since there is no parent in his family, you are the only elder for the two of them. If they don't rely on you, who else can they rely on?"

Su Qing has no parents-in-law, so she knows very well that although she no longer has the help of her elders, she also has no constraints or pressure.

"That's exactly the truth." Xue Sumei agreed very much.

"Xiao Zhou said he wanted to find a storefront. I'll go help him look for one this afternoon."

"Aunt, I have nothing to do this afternoon, so I'll go with you."

"it is good."

"But Auntie, when are you going to arrange for Taozi to meet him?"

"Don't worry, let me get in touch with Xiao Zhou again."

…………

"Zhou Chen, what's going on with you? Just now, a buddy of mine called me and asked about your situation. He said that you were pursuing his sister-in-law."

Zhou Chen had just returned to his rented house when he received a call from Guoran.

Zhou Chen was not surprised. He smiled and talked to Guoran for a few words. He also made an appointment to have a drink next time before hanging up the phone.

Although today's conversation with Xue Sumei was not very smooth, the fact that he made the call shows that the final result was not bad. It depends on his subsequent performance.

Because he quit his job, the bridal shop has not found a storefront yet. He has contacted several bridal brands, but everything has to wait until a storefront is found and decorated before it can begin.

As for the personnel, he is also looking for them, especially the important photographers, makeup artists, etc. However, he is not too anxious about this because he opened the bridal shop for Yang Tao, and everything will have to wait until he succeeds in pursuing Yang Tao.

So Zhou Chen had nothing else to do now, so he just found a gym nearby to exercise.

Now his physique has reached 11 points and his strength is 9 points. His physique is strong enough, so it is not easy for him to hurt his body when exercising his strength.

With the improvement of his physical fitness and the increase of his strength, Zhou Chen, who originally had no muscles, now has slowly developed muscles. Although he cannot compare with those muscular men, he is much stronger than before.

A few days passed like this, and during this period, there was no call from Xue Sumei, which made Zhou Chen, who was originally very confident, a little uneasy.

Human hearts are the most difficult to control. Although he has made sufficient preparations, he is not completely sure whether he can make Xue Sumei fall in love with him.

Lying on the rocking chair on the balcony, Zhou Chen looked at the sky outside the window. It had been more than two months since he came to this world, and there were less than ten months left until the one-year deadline. If he still didn't get any news today, he would have to temporarily give up the shortcut of Xue Sumei and pursue Yang Tao directly.

But at this moment, his cell phone suddenly rang. The caller was Xue Sumei, which immediately perked up his spirits.

"Hello, Aunt Xue, yes, it's me... OK, OK... no problem..."

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Chen smiled. Xue Sumei called and told him that she had found a suitable storefront and asked him to go over and take a look.

Of course Zhou Chen would not refuse, so he agreed immediately and said he would go to the community to pick her up. Then he quickly changed his clothes and drove to Xue Sumei's community.

After arriving at the destination, Zhou Chen saw Xue Sumei standing at the entrance of the community waiting, but Xue Sumei was not alone, there was another woman standing next to her.

Zhou Chen stopped the car, pulled the handbrake and got out quickly: "Aunt Xue, you must have waited for a long time."

"No, no, we just arrived at the door too."

Xue Sumei smiled widely, then pointed at the woman holding her arm and introduced her: "Xiao Zhou, this is my niece and Taozi's cousin, Su Qing."

Zhou Chen immediately called out, "Sister Su Qing, hello."

Su Qing also smiled: "Hello, Mr. Zhou."

Zhou Chen: "Sister Su Qing, you can just call me by my name, or call me Xiao Zhou like Auntie."

Su Qing nodded. She had been looking at Zhou Chen since he got off the car. She found that Zhou Chen was indeed as young as her aunt said, and looked very enthusiastic.

Especially Zhou Chen's BMW. After she went back, she asked her husband and learned that the car was not cheap and was more expensive than she thought.

Therefore, Su Qing still had a good impression of Zhou Chen, because Zhou Chen was not bad in terms of height, appearance, personality and attitude, and he was also rich and hardworking. He was definitely a good match for her cousin Yang Tao. As for being three years younger, the boy had no objection, so they naturally would not have any objection either.

"Aunt Xue, Sister Su Qing, please get in the car."

After getting in the car, Zhou Chen asked, "Aunt Xue, where is the place you just mentioned on the phone? I'll navigate there directly."

Su Qing said: "No need for navigation, I know the way, just follow the direction I point you to."

"Okay, then I'll trouble Sister Su Qing."

Zhou Chen concentrated on driving, while Xue Sumei and Su Qing, who were sitting in the back seat, were secretly doing some small actions.

Su Qing looked at Xue Sumei, raised his right thumb, and nodded repeatedly.

Xue Sumei was all smiles. This time, in order to help Zhou Chen find a storefront, she had used a lot of connections. Finally, with the help of her niece Su Qing and her niece's husband Duan Xifeng, she found a suitable storefront.

Originally she was worried that Zhou Chen would be unwilling to come, but she never expected that after she called him, Zhou Chen came immediately without any delay.

This shows that what Zhou Chen said to her before was definitely not bragging or perfunctory, but the real truth.

This made her completely relieved that Xiao Zhou was not only not a liar, but also a very good man, so she must seize the opportunity for her daughter.

"Without further delay, arrange for Taozi to meet him tomorrow."

Chapter 78 Renting a House, Bargaining

"Zhou Chen, I heard from my aunt about your request before, so we found a storefront with three floors in total, each floor is more than 200 square meters. Do you think it is enough? Also, this storefront used to be a restaurant, but it closed down for various reasons, but the location is still good."

Su Qing in the back row took the initiative to bring up the topic and asked Zhou Chen.

When Zhou Chen heard that there were three floors, each with an area of ​​more than 200 square meters, he nodded immediately. As for what the business was before and why it went bankrupt, he didn't care because he didn't believe that.

"That should be enough. I'm really sorry to bother you, Aunt Xue and Sister Su Qing. I'm really sorry to bother you on our first meeting."

"Hehehe."

Xue Sumei smiled and said, "Xiao Zhou, you are being polite. Auntie is always willing to help others. Finding a storefront is not a big deal."

"Amazing, Aunt Xue, you are really amazing. To be honest, I have looked for many places for this store, but I couldn't find a suitable one. Aunt, you found such a place in just a few days. It's amazing."

Zhou Chen gave a thumbs up and praised sincerely.

"Right, Xiao Zhou, leave this matter to your aunt, she will definitely help you with it." Xue Sumei laughed.

"I should have met you earlier. Otherwise, I wouldn't have taken so many detours."

"Xiao Zhou, I'm not bragging to you. I used to be an actress and I know a lot of people. You're going to open a bridal shop, right? I know a little bit about makeup and taking photos."

"Really? Auntie, are you an actress? No wonder you have such a good temperament. I was just blind before. I was wondering why Miss Yang Tao has such a good temperament. It turns out that she inherited it from you, Auntie."

Xue Sumei said proudly, "That's right, Xiao Zhou, let me tell you, I have been nurturing Taozi since she was young. For a girl, you don't have to care about other things, but you have to cultivate her temperament from a young age. And her figure and appearance, which one is not inherited from me?"
