The topic changed too quickly, and Luo Bei couldn’t even keep up.

As they were talking, they somehow got onto the topic of Zhou Jianguo’s single status.

Teacher Zhou continued, “I know in my heart that if it weren’t for you, he wouldn’t have achieved what he has today. It’s important for a person to be smart and capable, but if he can’t find someone who truly trusts him, it’s difficult to achieve great things. I know about your entrepreneurial process, and I know that you’re also a very smart and meticulous person. You must have noticed his differences, but you didn’t say anything, which shows that you trust him. Even when you found out that his identity was fake, you still trusted him. I, as a grandfather, can’t compare to him in this respect. At least in all the years I’ve been in business, I haven’t met a partner like you.”

Luo Bei felt a little shy after hearing this. “I don’t think he’s a bad person…but if I had known his identity was fake when I first met him, things might have been different.”

In the end, emotions still played a big role in human relationships.

Teacher Zhou nodded. “I know this, but he was fortunate to meet you. He was able to achieve what he has today despite having nothing, which surprised and amazed me. Of course, the most important thing is that not only he has changed his personality but he also met you during this year.”

Luo Bei was a little surprised.

“You should also know his personality. He’s not someone who likes to waste time on things outside of making money and pursuing his career, especially things like falling in love. In the past few years, his family has also considered finding him a partner, but he has always been against it and even disdained us, saying that we are a group of… ” Zhou paused for a moment, his expression extremely difficult as he said, “breeding cancers1.”

Luo Bei was shocked, but couldn’t hold back, and laughed.

She could imagine the expression on Zhou Jianguo’s face when he said those words, it must have been very contemptuous.

Teacher Zhou : “From my perspective, I do hope he gets married and has children. Our family’s company needs someone to inherit it, but I also hope he can have his own wife and small family. What’s wrong with that? He thinks it’s a waste of time and believes that he can’t communicate with us on a spiritual level. His parents are afraid to intervene in his life, and I’m the only one who cares about this. He’s a stubborn person who won’t even listen to my opinions on work, let alone his personal life. Fortunately, he met you.”

Luo Bei’s fair face slowly blushed. If the person who said these words was Zhou Jianguo, she might not feel so embarrassed.

“I’m not just speaking up for my grandson, but you also understand his personality. He won’t even have the idea of ​​cheating because he’s not interested in that kind of thing from start to finish. Also, you don’t have to worry about anyone opposing your relationship. I can make the decisions for this family. As for his parents, you can rest assured too.” Speaking of his own irresponsible son and daughter-in-law, Teacher Zhou talked about them as if they were outsiders. If it weren’t for the blood relationship, he probably wouldn’t want to admit that they were his son and daughter-in-law. “His parents are very afraid of him and dare not interfere in his life and decisions. They may be more surprised than I am about him having someone he likes. So, in order to ensure a comfortable life for the future, they will not only not cause you trouble, but also flatter you.”

Luo Bei : “…………”

Teacher Zhou paused for a moment and said again, “Beibei, don’t tell him he’s my grandson for now, because I’m currently doing something very important. I know that those veterans within the company are also planning something, especially during the year when he wasn’t around. I don’t want my grandson to be criticized by others. So, I want to do those things that will carry a bad reputation for him myself, and give him the best environment. This is the last thing I can do for my grandson.”

When he said this, the usually kind old man’s eyes were fierce. It can be imagined how decisive and resolute he was when he was young.

Luo Bei hesitated. She didn’t know if she should agree to the old man in front of her.

If she knew about Zhou Jianguo’s life experience, and also knew that his family members were always by his side, but still kept it from him without telling him, is that really what a friend would do?

When they were doing business, didn’t they agree to trust each other?

Luo Bei turned her head to look out the window, where she could see the sign of the car beauty shop. She thought about how she and Zhou Jianguo had achieved what they had today step by step over such a long period of time. They had suffered together, worked hard together, envisioned the future together, sympathized with each other, and supported each other…

She withdrew her gaze and looked at Teacher Zhou, shaking her head apologetically. “I can’t promise you that.”

Teacher Zhou was surprised.

“No matter what his previous identity was, right now he is my good friend and my partner. To be honest, I am closer to him than to you, and I should stand by his side. Even if I knew about his background and that you are his family member, I would disappoint myself if I promised not to tell him.

“I believe that if the same thing happened to me, he would definitely choose to tell me. Besides, I am not someone who can keep secrets, so you really can’t ask me to do that.”

Teacher Zhou looked at Luo Bei in surprise. He hadn’t expected her to refuse him.

After realizing the truth, Teacher Zhou laughed heartily and said, “Yes, that’s how it should be. You are a young couple and should be closer to each other.”

Luo Bei was silent for a while, “It’s not like that!”

“I just feel a little regretful,” Teacher Zhou said with a disappointed expression. “After he knows that he is my grandson, I won’t be able to see him wash my car anymore or see him only dare to express his anger silently. Fortunately, I have recorded a video.”

Luo Bei : “…”

“You don’t know how annoying this kid used to be. No matter what you said to him, he wouldn’t change his mind, even if his idea was wrong.”

“It’s not necessarily true. How can you be sure that his idea is wrong? Maybe you are wrong?” Luo Bei replied.

Teacher Zhou couldn’t recover from his trance for a long time and could only sigh in the end.

Well, his grandson found himself a protective wife.

Protective, yes, everyone in their family is protective.

After talking for a long time, when Luo Bei was about to leave, she asked, “You haven’t told me what Xiao Zhou’s real name is.”

Teacher Zhou shook his head and said, “Let him introduce himself to you.”

He paused and said again, “When he named himself Zhou Jianguo, I doubted whether his brain was broken.”

Actually, Luo Bei was still quite curious about Zhou Jianguo’s real name.

When Teacher Zhou and Luo Bei returned to the car beauty shop, the car had already been washed.

Teacher Zhou also felt regretful in his heart. There probably wouldn’t be such a beautiful day in the future.

When Zhou Jianguo saw them coming back, he quickly put down what he was doing and came to Luo Bei’s side. He didn’t pay much attention to washing the car today and was wondering what these two people were up to.

“Where did you two go?” Zhou Jianguo asked.

Luo Bei pointed to the cafe across the street and said, “We went there to sit and drink orange juice.”

Now looking at Zhou Jianguo, then at the Rolls-Royce parked aside, her mood was somewhat complicated.

Although she could feel from Zhou Jianguo’s speech, that before he lost his memory, he must have been an extraordinary person, very powerful, she didn’t expect him to be such a rich man.

Zhou Jianguo nodded and asked, “Who paid for it?”

Why is he asking this? Luo Bei coughed lightly, glanced at Teacher Zhou, and actually wanted to ask, Was he like this before he lost his memory? He has so much money, but still calculating so much?

She finally said, “Teacher Zhou paid the bill…”

“That’s good.”

Teacher Zhou: “?”

He walked around the car and immediately had a stern face and said, “Did you wash the car for me? Did you put your heart into washing it? Let me tell you, I don’t recognize paying this 25 yuan today.”

Zhou Jianguo argued, “It’s harder to earn your 25 yuan than to earn 25,000 yuan from others.”

After saying this, he looked at Luo Bei and asked, “What did you talk about with him? What do you have to chat about?”

Luo Bei hesitated and didn’t know whether she should tell Zhou Jianguo at this moment.

Say it, it didn’t feel quite right. After all, the apprentice and the master was still there, and if she didn’t say it, she didn’t know when she would find a suitable opportunity to say it.

While she was still in a dilemma, Teacher Zhou walked over, smiling and said, “Actually, it’s nothing. I really like Beibei. Coincidentally, I have a grandson who is only a few years older than her. I want to introduce Beibei to him and have her be my granddaughter-in-law.”

Zhou Jianguo looked at Luo Bei and asked, “Is that true?”

Luo Bei thought that Teacher Zhou was really mischievous, because what he said was indeed true. He had always been talking about how good his grandson was.

Seeing Luo Bei hesitating, Zhou Jianguo knew that the old man hadn’t said anything wrong.

He was so angry. He had been chasing after Luo Bei, but now this old man wanted to introduce someone to her, his grandson. Although he didn’t want to admit it, this old man looked like he was very wealthy. Luo Bei was not someone who loved money, but if she agreed to meet this old man’s grandson out of face and then sparks flew, what would he do?

Zhou Jianguo also had a temper, but he just said to Teacher Zhou, “Sorry, we can’t afford to climb that high. Your car is clean now, so we won’t keep you.”

Although he was very angry, he didn’t lose his temper.

This was probably the biggest change in his personality over the past year.

Teacher Zhou sighed and said to Luo Bei, “Beibei, did you hear that? He said you can’t afford to climb that high. I didn’t say that.”

Luo Bei laughed.

Teacher Zhou sneered at Zhou Jianguo, “A rotten wood can’t be carved.”

“Have you asked if the rotten wood wants to be carved?” Zhou Jianguo retorted.

“What else do you have besides a sharp tongue?”

Luo Bei had a headache. This grandparent and grandchild pair, watching them made her felt like she was watching two kids argue, it was too childish.
