Chapter 585 Zhou Mingxuan's Thoughts
After returning home, Zhou Mingxuan stopped Zhao Junhao who was about to go back to his room and said, "Haozi, can you please not talk about our past embarrassing things in front of Xiaoxue in the future?"
"What's there to not say?" Zhao Junhao was a little surprised.
"Oh, if Xiaoxue knew all that, we would be so embarrassed!"
Zhao Junhao said nonchalantly, "Hey, do we still have face in front of Xiaoxue?
We are not as good as her in every aspect, except that Xiaoxue is more of a homebody, doesn't like socializing with people, and doesn't like doing business. Otherwise, she would crush us in every aspect.
How can we save face in front of her?"
Hearing what Zhao Junhao said, Zhou Mingxuan was powerless to refute. It was difficult for him to tell others about his little thoughts, so he could only grit his teeth and say,
"Just because you can't compare to Xiaoxue, are you just going to give up and just lie down.
Are you still a man? Where is your masculinity?
Shouldn't we face the challenge head on and work hard to save our reputation? "
Zhao Junhao looked at Zhou Mingxuan with suspicion, "Mingxuan, I think you are very strange today. Why do you care so much about face?
You didn’t always care about these things before.”
“The before was the before, and the now is the now.
We are all grown up now, and have reached the age to start a family and build a career. We definitely can't just play around like before, we must stand on our own feet.
Anyway, you are not allowed to talk about the embarrassing things we did in front of Xiaoxue.
Even if you want to talk, you can only talk about your own things, and you can't talk about me."
After saying these words, Zhou Mingxuan went back to his room, leaving Zhao Junhao confused.
Zhao Junhao, who was left behind by Zhou Mingxuan, stood there in confusion. After a while, he muttered to himself,
"If you don't want to say it, then don't say it. Why are you reacting so strongly?
I am so stupid that I have nothing to do every day and expose my shortcomings in front of Xiaoxue. It's just that the conversation came up and I mentioned it."
After turning around and taking two steps towards his room, Zhao Junhao stopped again and turned to look at Zhou Mingxuan's room.
“But there’s something wrong with this guy. I just talked about his past and said he’s thick-skinned, why did he react so strongly?
We used to tease each other a lot, but I've never seen him act like this."
"What the hell is wrong with you?"
After thinking for a long time, Zhao Junhao couldn't figure it out, so he shook his head and went back to his room.
Zhou Mingxuan returned to his room, his heart pounding and he felt uneasy.
Just now Haozi talked about so many things he did not live up to in the past. Xiaoxue might feel that she is incompetent and cannot even compare to Zheng Pengcheng in such a small thing as martial arts.
Haozi is really something. How could he just bring up the past like that?
If you say that you tried hard, but found that you couldn't catch up, then you gave up. Doesn't that mean you have no perseverance?
I am not such a person. Haven't you seen that I have been getting up early every day to practice martial arts for more than a year, except for special circumstances, and I have persisted in doing so.
He also said that he doesn't care about face and doesn't care about other people's opinions. Although it is true, you should at least process it a little.
Even if you say that you don't cater to the world, it's good as long as you have your own ideas and persistence.
For the first time, Zhou Mingxuan regretted his previous actions and reflected on whether he had been too self-willed.
"After hearing what Haozi said, will Xiaoxue look down on herself and be disappointed in herself?
Will she still care about herself in the future?"
Zhou Mingxuan fell into deep worry.
At this moment, he had already forgotten that he was going back to his room to get some clean clothes so that he could take a shower.
After cleaning, I have to hurry to make breakfast.
The captain's first work whistle will probably be blown soon.
After Zhao Junhao finished his shower, he didn't see Zhou Mingxuan coming out to take a shower yet, so he stood outside and shouted,
"Mingxuan, what are you doing in the room? Why don't you come out and take a shower?
I've already washed it.
We have to go to work soon, and we have to make breakfast quickly. There is no time to waste."
Zhou Mingxuan was awakened by Zhao Junhao's call and finally realized that he had been sitting on the edge of the kang and had been in a daze for a long time.
He quickly said to the outside, "I just had something to do, I'll be out to take a shower soon.
You go make breakfast first."
After replying, Zhou Mingxuan hurried to find a change of clothes and prepared to take a shower.
In the evening, after coming out of the cowshed, Zhou Mingxuan looked towards Liu Jingxue's house not far away.
"Haozi, shall we go find Xiaoxue?"
Zhao Junhao refused, "It's so late, Xiaoxue should have gone to bed, so don't go.
Besides, it's not appropriate to go to a girl's house so late at night."
I felt that something was wrong with Zhou Mingxuan. He would never make such a mistake before.
"Mingxuan, what's the matter with you, Xiaoxue?"
Zhou Mingxuan, who was reminded by Zhao Junhao's words, had already reflected on how inappropriate his suggestion was. He quickly tried to make up for it.
"Just now when I was in the inner room, I heard Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu talking about their second son.
Their second son hasn't contacted his family for almost two years."
"It seems to be the case. I heard them say before that he was on a secret mission and would not be able to contact his family for a year or two.
It may take even longer.”
"Yes, it is estimated that the two-year deadline is coming soon. Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu are worried about the safety of their youngest son and are muttering to themselves.
I was thinking about telling Xiaoxue and asking her to contact Brother Liu to see if there was any news.
Didn’t Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu go out after their youngest son went on a mission? After he came back, he could only contact Brother Liu after his leader informed him. "
"This matter is not urgent. We can just tell Xiaoxue tomorrow. There is no need to go to her house tonight to disturb her." Zhao Junhao said.
"You're right. I was reckless just now."
Zhou Mingxuan was not in a hurry to tell Liu Jingxue the news. He just wanted a legitimate excuse to find Xiaoxue to find out whether Xiaoxue's attitude towards him had changed after hearing what Zhao Junhao said.
The next evening, before going to the cowshed to study, Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao first came to Liu Jingxue and told her about Liu Weihua and Wang Xiulan talking about Liu Jianjun.
Ever since Liu Jingxue opened the gate, Zhou Mingxuan has been paying attention to the expression on Liu Jingxue's face, trying to see from her face whether she showed any contempt or disgust towards him.
Fortunately, Liu Jingxue's attitude towards them remained the same as before and there was no change.
After listening to the two people's stories, Liu Jingxue frowned. She hadn't received any news from her youngest son in two years. Her uncle and aunt must be worried.
The agreed time is almost here, and if no news is received, the two might have some bad associations.
"I understand. I'll go to town in the next two days and call my eldest brother to ask if there's any news about my second brother.
You guys are over there, if they mention him again, please help comfort me a little."
"Don't worry, Xiaoxue, we will do it without you telling us."
After seeing the two off, Liu Jingxue sighed inwardly, hoping that her eldest brother would get news about her second brother.
The longer it goes on, the more worried my uncle and aunt will be.
