Chapter 364: Chapter 364

"Alright, let it be. Wenyuan's marriage needs to be settled quickly. Just tell him, if he delays any longer, I'll give him the daughter of my sacrificed comrade's family.

If he wants to find someone himself, he'd better hurry up. Anyway, if there's no news by the end of the year, I'll send someone back to bring that girl over."

Zhu Peishan hung up his brother's call and sighed.

Then he dialed his nephew Zhu Wenyuan's phone, "Wenyuan, it's your uncle. Come over for lunch with me."

"Uncle, what's going on?"

"I have my eye on a girl. She's already said she likes someone else, but I'm not giving up since she's not married yet. She's the office director at T City Textile Factory, got into university on her own, graduated this year, and came here to report today. I'll have her join us for lunch. You come too."

"Uncle, she's got someone she likes. Why would I go?"

"Just come when I ask you to. I just called your dad. He said if there's nothing by the end of the year, he'll send his comrade's daughter over.

Think about it yourself. I'm not forcing you, but if you don't come, I'll tell your dad directly. No need to wait until the end of the year; I'll bring her over now."

"Alright, alright, I'll be there at eleven o'clock." Zhu Wenyuan really had no other option; even his uncle had resorted to threats.

Zhu Peishan put down the phone with satisfaction. He had long had his eye on Jiang Xinyu, but he had never been this eager before.

Jiang Xinyu returned home, and the three were not there. They probably went out to play. In this hot weather, lying on the bed with an electric fan is the happiest thing, right? I really don't want to go out for lunch, but that person is not easy to offend.

She fell asleep in a daze, feeling like she never has enough sleep since she came back.

Wei Kaiyun took the two kids to the building, wanting to buy them toys, but both liked picture books, so the three of them stopped on the third floor.

Jiang Xinyu had bought them a lot of books, but due to regional differences, there were many picture books here that they hadn't seen.

Wei Kaiyun watched the two kids joys like little mice falling into a rice jar, smiling indulgently from the side.

The two kids selected a lot, but none were duplicates.

Wei Kaiyun observed them carefully from the side, thinking that Jiang Xinyu had really taught the two kids well.

Finally, the two of them selected twenty picture books, feeling a bit embarrassed and standing nervously by Wei Kaiyun's side.

Seeing his children's expressions standing beside him , his heart ached. The two kids, although they called him Dad, didn't seem to regard him as a dad they could freely ask things of, right?

Wei Kaiyun squatted down, placing his hands on both kids' shoulders, "Shi Jing, Feifei, I am your dad. You can make any request of me, just like with your mom."

The two kids nodded, "Dad, we selected more than twenty picture books. Can you help us buy them?"

"Alright, is that enough? This place has the most comprehensive collection of picture books. Choose a few more. When we get to the Capital, there will be a lot of new books too."

Wei Kaiyun encouraged the two kids to buy more, just to get them used to being with him and expressing their needs to him.

"Dad, we've read all the others. Mom sent them back to us. Are there more we haven't read in the Capital?"

"Of course, when the time comes, Dad will take you to the bookstore. There are a lot of books there, and you can choose whatever you want."

The two kids nodded happily. The shop assistant watching the three of them thought this father was really different, making one envious.

Wei Kaiyun took the slip to pay, while the two kids watched the shop assistant pack. "Auntie, you're amazing at tying them up ." Shi Jing praised the shop assistant, making the thirty-something woman's face full of smiles.

When Wei Kaiyun came back, he saw this scene and found it amusing. His son was quite capable too.

The three of them took another round, and Wei Kaiyun bought them each a pair of sandals. The sandals were made of plastic, but they were still quite novel.

The kids didn't want clothes, thinking that they had already spent a lot and shouldn't spend more.

The three of them then went downstairs to buy snacks.

"We'll take the train tonight. What do you want to eat?"

As for the snacks, they usually had them, so they weren't interested.

Wei Kaiyun wanted to buy them candies but was afraid his wife would blame him, so he held back.

"How about we go straight to a restaurant?"

"Will mom come looking for us?"

"It's very likely your mom will be kept for lunch."

"Dad, let's go home and check if mom's back." Jiang Feifei said, pulling Wei Kaiyun's hand.

"Alright, let's go home." In his heart, Wei Kaiyun sighed that his wife's position in the children's hearts was too high, and he felt a little jealous.

The three looked at the locked door, and the two kids laughed, "Dad, mom's at home."

"That's right, your mom's at home."

Jiang Xinyu was actually awake and got up to open the door when she heard knocking.

"You're back? Shi Jing, Feifei, did you have fun?"

"Yes, mom. Dad bought us a lot of picture books and also sandals."

Jiang Xinyu smiled and held her daughter's hand into the yard.

"Feifei, mom needs to go out for lunch. What do you want to eat?"

"Mom, Dad said we're going to eat at a restaurant."

"Okay, you three go ahead. Mom has to go, and it won't be good if I'm late."

Jiang Xinyu helped the two kids put on the sandals. Shi Jing was all smiles, but Feifei seemed a bit displeased. "Mom, these sandals aren't as comfortable as the ones you made."

"Haha, there are advantages too. When it rains, you won't worry about getting wet."

Jiang Feifei nodded but took them off and wore socks instead.

Jiang Xinyu looked speechlessly at the girl's actions, thinking she might have a bit of OCD and cleanliness obsession?

"Alright, let's all head out."

"Xinyu, we're off. Don't stay out too late. After dinner, we'll be back."

"Got it, I'm just having a meal with Director Zhu at the Management Bureau." Was this because he wasn't reassured?

At five to eleven, Jiang Xinyu arrived at the Management Bureau and went directly into Zhu Peishan's office.

She saw a man sitting inside and just nodded.

"Director Jiang, let me introduce you. This is my nephew Zhu Wenyuan, who works at the Provincial Public Security Bureau."

"Wenyuan, this is Jiang Xinyu, the office director at T City Textile Factory. She's quite a remarkable talent."

Zhu Wenyuan stood up and shook hands with her, exchanging a few polite words.

"Director Jiang, let's go for lunch. The canteen should have been arranged. Consider it my treat for welcoming you and congratulating you on your university graduation journey."

"Thank you, Director Zhu. You're making me a bit embarrassed."
