Chapter 13 Soul Mate

• The trio in the room were all dumbfounded upon hearing that.
• “Woman?” Jin Zhiyi was the first to respond while looking extremely excited, “Brother! Brother! Is it the one you mentioned previously?”
• “Which one?”
• Mr. Jin returned to his senses and he looked sharply at his youngest son.
• Jin Zhiyi replied energetically, “It’s a woman. Brother said previously that he may get married soon.”
• “Get married?”
• Mrs. Jin could not believe what she had just heard, “You have found a life partner? Who? What kind of a person is she? What is her family background? How old is she? Is she pretty?”
• Jin Zhishen felt like his head was about to explode having bombarded with so many questions at one go.
• “Mom, can you all calm down?”
• “Ok, we are calmed now. But you better tell us what is this all about!”
• Mrs. Jin looked very serious. Obviously, she could not believe that her eldest son had found a soul mate.
• This man hated woman. He ran as fast as he could at the sight of woman.
• Every time she tried to set him up with a woman, he would find all sorts of excuses to escape.
• She even suspected that his son was a gay!
• Little did she know that a woman would pop up out of nowhere while they were away for just a few days.
• Jin Zhishen had no intention of talking about this. But looking at how anxious his parents were, he had no choice but to lead his parents into the house and explained simply, “Firstly, I didn’t say I had found a life partner. I only said I might and it was Jin Zhiyi’s imagination that had gone wild. Secondly, there was indeed a girl whom Bao was very fond of. Currently, we only knew each other for 2 days and there is nothing concrete yet. “
• Upon hearing that, the seniors were a little disappointed but were still encouraged, “Then what about you? Do you like her too?”
• Jin Zhishen knitted his eyebrow as if the word “like” was a foreign word. After a long pause, he gave a safe answer, “I don’t dislike her.”
• “That means you like her.” Jin Zhiyi interrupted.
• As soon as he finished his words, his brother glared at him.
• Mr. Jin was more rational, “Is the woman reliable? How long have you all known each other?”
• “A few… months,” Jin Zhishen hesitated when he said this.
• Mr. Jin was unhappy and said sternly, “Just a few months and you are okay to leave Bao with her? What if she has an ulterior motive? Don’t forget what happened a few years ago. I will not forgive you if Bao was hurt again.”
• Mrs. Jin agreed, “That’s right, Zhishen! While it is good that you have someone you are fond of, Mom and Dad had not even seen her before and you cannot just leave Bao with her like that. Go bring Bao back right now. We can find an appropriate time to know the girl more later on. “
• For a moment, Jin Zhishen was perturbed.
• The entire matter had escalated so quickly to having to meet the parents. All his explanation earlier was futile.
• Looking at his brother’s expression, Jin Zhiyi knew that things might not be as simple as it seemed. So he decided to bail him out, “Dad, Mom, fret not. You see, Brother is very capable. We shouldn’t be worried. Even if Bao is really at the woman’s place, I am sure there are bodyguards there protecting Bao. I am sure there won’t be any problem...”
• “Besides, don’t you guys want to see brother getting married? In the past, brother didn’t even like anyone. Neither does Bao. Now that it’s rare for the both of them to accept a woman, so let's not frighten her. I am sure you guys wouldn’t want brother to be single for the rest of his life or turn into a gay, right?”
• “But…”
• The seniors were still worried.
• Jin Zhiyi interrupted, “No more but. Brother had said that there is nothing concrete yet. I must have heard wrongly. The word “marriage” that I thought I heard was most likely a word that I’d imagined. Just let Bao stay outside for tonight. Tomorrow, I will bring Bao back together with brother. You see, it’s quite late. Go back and have a rest soon.”
• With that, he sent the seniors out of the house.
• Mr. Jin said snappily, “You rascal! We had only reached and you are already chasing us away.”
• “That’s right. We had only just arrived,” Mrs. Jin stared at him.
• Jin Zhiyi said, “There is nothing here. You guys are here for your grandson, not your own son. I am fully aware of that. Go back and have a good rest. The driver is still waiting for you guys.”
• The three of them shoved each other out the door. Once outside the door, the seniors were forced into the car and left.
• After he settled the seniors, Jin Zhiyi went to his brother asking for credit, “Brother, how do you find my performance? Did I perform well?”
• “Not bad,” Jin Zhishen praised sincerely.
• Jin Zhiyi immediately rubbed his palm and smiled while acting innocent, “So, seeing that I had performed well, can you please tell me who the woman is? I couldn’t sleep well last night. Do you know that?”
• Jin Zhishen glared at his younger brother, “There are a stack of documents waiting for you to review in the study room. Since you can’t sleep, go get it done.”
• Jin Zhiyi immediately froze, then he pulled a long face and complained, “Why are you so secretive? What’s wrong with telling me who she is? I might be able to help you in the future. Do you know that? “
• Jin Zhishen was unconvinced, “What kind of help?”
• Jin Zhiyi said proudly, “For example, appeasing our parents. Even though they were appeased for now, just you wait. I am sure they will be curious who the woman is and send someone to investigate on her. After that, for all you know, they might harass her and then you would need your younger brother, that is me, to go and appease them again. So, you should tell me who the person is.”
• Jin Zhishen was totally unconvinced after hearing that, “I can also appease them. Even if I couldn’t, I could set you up with a woman and marry you off. Then Mom and Dad would probably have no time to bother about me.”
• “What?!” Jin Zhiyi exploded instantly and pointed at his brother angrily, “Brother! You are so cunning! Are we even biological brothers?”
• “Certainly,” Jin Zhishen’s mouth curved up into a cunning smile, “Now, do you still want to know who that person is?”
• Jin Zhiyi was sad, “No! It’s okay.”
• I can find out who she is myself!
