Chapter 1199: Chapter 1199: A Man’s Face Isn’t Given by His Wife
“That’s all.”
“Alright then! My wife sure knows how to hold a grudge.”
“Now you know? I’m not a forgiving person.” Su Wen snorted coldly, half-jokingly saying, “Offend a girl from the Su family, and just wait! I’ll remember it for a lifetime.”
Zhou Hengyang was practically shedding a tear of sympathy for his brother, letting him play—the game got too big, and he crashed and burned himself.
Especially since his wife was vengeful and defiantly authoritative, there was no way he could enter the Su family’s door in the future.
But as a big brother, he still had to put in a good word for his sibling.
“So, is there a chance for shameless Zhou Hengguang to enter our Su family’s door in the future?”
Su Wen burst out laughing, “What kind of joke is that? Have the Zhou family gone mad? One after another, you all really want to become live-in sons-in-law for our family?”
Zhou Hengyang touched his chin, his handsome face serious, “Before, I thought it was impossible and wouldn’t have agreed, but now it’s hard to say.” In fact, he was a bit surprised himself.
He hadn’t expected his brother to be serious.
“What do you mean?” Su Wen was also surprised.
She was joking just now. That shameless Zhou Hengguang was nothing but a scoundrel, a degenerate. To expect such a person to be sincere was foolish. It wasn’t that she lacked confidence in her sister, but rather that she wouldn’t pin her hopes on someone else.
She wouldn’t place her sister’s happiness in someone else’s hands either; love does exist, and everyone longs for a wonderful love.
But one mustn’t be blind and think that just because someone looks handsome and has good prospects, they are destined to love you unconditionally.
That’s foolish, that’s being lovestruck.
So she had never expected Zhou Hengguang to fall for Su Qing, and she had prejudged him as being worthless, which is why she flared up the last time she saw her sister being mistreated at his house. After getting angry, she regretted it the next day.
She regretted making her man lose face in front of others; she should have only reprimanded the worthless Zhou Hengguang. She should have controlled her temper instead of misplacing her anger on Hengyang.
Zhou Hengguang’s misdeeds were his alone; Hengyang was innocent.
She apologized to Hengyang in a low voice afterwards, reflecting that she shouldn’t be so hot-tempered and should have spared him some dignity in public.
Instead, it made Hengyang laugh, saying that a man earns his own respect, not from his wife’s gift.
Getting respect from one’s wife is like inflating one’s face to appear fat—it’s useless and extremely fake.
Go out and ask, does Zhou Hengyang need someone else to give him respect?
To this day, recalling what Hengyang said then still makes Su Wen’s heart feel sweet.
“I think that shameless Zhou Hengguang is serious this time.”
Zhou Hengyang realized that he had been led astray by his wife only after he finished speaking. Lately, every time his wife mentioned his brother at home, she called him shameless Zhou Hengguang, and others did the same. He’d heard it so much that he inadvertently started using it too.
“Wenwen, you might not see it, but Hengguang is unpredictable; however, when it comes to romance, he’s a blank slate. It’s not surprising that he’s fallen hard.”
Su Wen gave him a sidelong glance, “From the sound of it, you seem very experienced, huh?”
“I’m not; I’m just like my brother. The experienced one is my little uncle; he’s the one with experience.” Zhou Hengyang’s chiseled face carried a hint of a mischievous smile, “But Hengguang probably hasn’t fully grasped his own feelings yet, so he’s acting foolishly.”
That kid is extremely smart, and once he figures it out, he won’t be so passive anymore.
“Really in love, huh?” Su Wen muttered softly.
“But I still think he’s not suitable for my sister Su Qing. Keep looking for match-making candidates for her. I don’t care for an impressive family background; the person should be good-natured, ambitious, responsible, open-minded, and affable. Oh, and their family should also be easy-going—absolutely not problematic, or else I’ll have to personally get involved in a conflict.”
