Chapter 727 Turnaround
"Just ask whatever you want to ask."

Xu Zizhen said with a smile.

He decided to go to the courtyard to visit his uncle this weekend.

Because he had made up his mind, he suddenly felt relieved.

He didn't mind any questions Zhuge Yun and the others might ask.

Although Zhuge Yun and the others did not know about Xu Zizhen's psychological changes, they knew one thing, that is, Xu Zizhen must have misunderstood something.

"Xu Zizhen."

Zhuge Yun spoke and glanced at Xiao Xiao.

Since there was no response he assumed that the third brother agreed.

"If your uncle's little sister is really a monster-"

Zhuge Yun paused.

Xu Zizhen's originally somewhat relaxed expression became a little stunned and confused because of Zhuge Yun's unexpected words.

I don't know why I felt inexplicably nervous.

If his uncle's little sister is a monster.
What will happen?

As if he had sensed something, Xu Zizhen stared at Zhuge Yun, and his heart in his chest beat faster and faster.

A series of dull “bang, bang” sounds echoed in his ears and brain.

"The third brother may be able to help your uncle meet that young lady."

Zhuge Yun finally spoke.

But Xu Zizhen suddenly opened his eyes wide.

What do you mean?
Did he hear that correctly?
Didn't I understand it wrong?
Zhuge Yun's meaning is indeed
"You mean, if my uncle's little sister is really a monster-"

He turned around and looked at Xiao Xiao with a bit of stubbornness, "Xiao Xiao, do you have a way to let my uncle meet that young lady?!"

"is this real?"

Xu Zizhen's eyes fluctuated violently, and he confirmed in an unstable and hoarse voice.

Zhuge Yun also turned and looked at Xiao Xiao.

Xiao Xiao, who was the focus of everyone's attention, curled his lips slightly, his expression calm, "I'm not sure."

"Everything will be determined after we see your uncle."

Since he did not stop Zhuge Yun when he "pushed" him out, he also wanted to help Xu Zizhen's uncle in his heart.

Xiao Xiao heard about this incident by chance, so of course he couldn't just treat it as a story in a news report.

Xu Zizhen gave him a good impression.

Moreover, he could see that Zhuge Yun and others wanted to help Xu Zizhen.

So, what reason did he have to refuse this idea when he could perhaps easily realize it?

"Really, really?"

Xu Zizhen murmured, seeming certain but also incredulous.

"of course it's true."

Zhuge Yun patted his chest and vouched for Xiao Xiao, "The third brother is very powerful."

"As long as that young lady is really a monster, the third brother will definitely be able to help your uncle."

"Maybe the third brother can help your uncle find that young lady directly."

"Yes, you can rest assured that the third brother will do the job."

Zhang Bo looked cheerful and as if it was a matter of course.

"Third brother is a real master."

"Just look at your uncle. If Third Brother says it's okay, then there will be absolutely no problem."

As Xiao Xiao's number one fanboy in dormitory 417, Zhao Luzheng did not hesitate to praise him, "Third brother will definitely find that girl."

Xu Zizhen looked at Xiao Xiao with a mysterious look.

However, since he was willing to believe his uncle's story, which sounded bizarre to others, he was also willing to believe that the boy in front of him was really as amazing as his companions said.

Besides, why would they need to deceive him?
They just met today.

He took the initiative.

He could feel the other person's kindness.

Regardless of whether they helped in the end, he was very grateful to them for their concern for his uncle's affairs.

"thank you all."

Xu Zizhen bowed slightly to Xiao Xiao and the others, "Thank you very much."

"Oh, you're welcome." Zhuge Yun waved his hand, causing Zhang Bo to roll his eyes. "What do you mean you're welcome? It's not like you're helping me."

"It will be the third brother who will do the hard work then."

"They are polite, but you are not polite."

"My role is very important, okay?"

Zhuge Yun was a little annoyed, "Without me, how could Xu Zizhen let the third brother know about this?"

"How can the Third Brother help Xu Zizhen if he doesn't know about this?"

"Well, I appreciate all of you."

Xu Zizhen nodded seriously and agreed with Zhuge Yun, "You are all very good and have helped me a lot."

Everyone present felt a little embarrassed by what Xu Zizhen said.

In fact, they didn't really do anything.

It was just a story told by Xu Zizhen.

Xu Zizhen's solemn thanks made them feel a little "pressured".

"So when are we going to go find your uncle?"

Unable to bear the current atmosphere, Zhao Luzheng opened his mouth to ask.

“Is this weekend okay?”

Xu Zizhen told the decision he had just made, "My uncle always goes back to my great-grandfather's courtyard on weekend mornings."

"He'll be under that maple tree all morning."

"Does your uncle go back to the courtyard every weekend?"

Zhuge Yun asked curiously.

“Basically.”

Xu Zizhen nodded, "Unless he has something that he can't leave for."

Before my uncle got married, he lived in his grandparents' courtyard.

After getting married, my uncle originally wanted to continue living in the courtyard house.

The house is big enough anyway.

And by that time his grandparents had already passed away one after another.

There are even more empty rooms.

But my uncle's parents disagreed.

The other adults disagreed.

They all believed that if their uncle continued to stay in the courtyard, his "illness" would never be cured.

That red maple tree has become an obsession for my uncle.

My uncle's parents even thought about cutting down the red maple tree, but my uncle tried his best to stop them.

In order to save the red maple, my uncle chose to follow the arrangements of his elders and moved out of the courtyard.

"Your uncle is really too persistent."

Zhang Bo was inspired.

If it were him, he felt that he probably couldn't do it to that extent.

He would choose to bury that memory, that important existence, deep in the depths of his own memory.

When he gets old and can accept the other person's departure calmly, he will take it out from time to time to reminisce.

Think about the times you and the other person were together.

I wonder if by that time, when he is old, he will still be able to remember what the other person looks like?

"Yes."

Xu Zizhen smiled bitterly.

My uncle is really too persistent.

After so many years, I still haven't let go

However, there is no letting go until you let go.

Xu Zizhen suddenly felt that everything was destined.

If it weren't for his uncle's insistence, he wouldn't have kept his uncle's story so deeply in his heart even though he thought it was a little ridiculous.

He would not have chosen to talk to Zhuge Yun after accidentally hearing his words today.
