Siheyuan: I have a multi-dimensional chat group!

Zhou Bingkun looked helpless: "Fine, it was my fault. They'll all be back this year! My dad, my brother, my sister-in-law, and Zhou Rong and her husband, they'll all be back, okay!"

"That's more like it." Li Suhua breathed a sigh of relief this time, then asked curiously, "Kun'er, that's your sister, how could you call her Zhou Rong? Are you still angry with her?"

Zhou Bingkun said without hesitation, "How can I not be angry? For a random man, she abandoned her parents and brothers, and even said she didn't have a daughter. Who wouldn't be angry? It's only because you have a good temper. If she dared to say such things in front of me, I guarantee I would slap her to death."

"Look at you, so capable!" Li Suhua sighed and looked at Zhou Bingkun, saying, "You can't blame your sister for this. Nobody can really explain matters of the heart! Take you for example, weren't you just as stubborn for Zheng Juan?"

Zhou Bingkun immediately retorted, "How can that be the same? No matter what happened between Zheng Juan and me, I didn't say those kinds of things. I still asked for your opinions first. At least I didn't run away from home without a word, and I didn't abandon my parents and home. Zhou Rong can't compare to me."

He admitted that he was stubborn about Zheng Juan, but that was fundamentally different from his attitude towards Zhou Rong.

Hearing Zhou Bingkun's words, Li Suhua seemed very impatient.

She knew, of course, that Zhou Rong's actions were disheartening, but aside from a little blame at the beginning, she no longer felt any resentment and only wanted her daughter to come home as soon as possible.

Two days later, Li Suhua received another letter, this time from the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps.

The letter was simple: Zhou Bingyi said he wouldn't be coming back for Chinese New Year this year because he was going to marry Hao Dongmei.

Since Hao Dongmei couldn't leave, he stayed there with her.

The two consecutive letters left Li Suhua feeling very unwell.

With the Lunar New Year just days away, a telegram from your province made Li Suhua give up hope.

Zhou Zhigang forgave Zhou Rong and decided to stay in Guizhou Province to spend the New Year with Zhou Rong and the others, instead of returning to Liaoning Province.

Li Suhua was saddened to learn the news, but at the same time, she felt relieved.

Although she couldn't go home to reunite with her family, the fact that her husband could forgive their daughter was a comfort to her.

If the husband forgives his daughter, it means that there will be a chance for the family to be reunited in the future.

Zhou Bingkun had already known this would be the outcome, so he wasn't surprised at all.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, only Zhou Bingkun and Li Suhua ate at the Zhou family home.

The meal was far more lavish than usual.

However, Li Suhua was clearly in a bad mood because her husband and children had not returned, and she did not enjoy her meal.

Just then, Zhou Bingkun spoke up, "Mom, there's something I'd like to discuss with you."

Li Suhua looked up at Zhou Bingkun: "What is it?"

“My original plan was to tell Zheng Juan about my marriage when my dad and older brother came back!” Zhou Bingkun said to Li Suhua. “But now they’re not coming back, and we don’t know when they’ll be back. I feel that my marriage with Zheng Juan can’t be delayed any longer! I want to get married and register our marriage after the New Year. What do you think?”

In fact, Li Suhua no longer objected to Zhou Bingkun and Zheng Juan being together, but this was, after all, a major issue.

After pondering for a moment, he looked at Zhou Bingkun and said, "Kun'er, isn't this a bit too hasty? Your father and the others might be back in a couple of years. Shouldn't we wait a little longer?"

“Mom, it’s not that I don’t want to wait, but who knows how long it will take!” Zhou Bingkun sighed. “I’ll be 21 this year, and Zheng Juan is a year older than me. Women should have children when they’re young. Besides, it’s just the two of us in our family these past few years. Don’t you want to hold your grandson soon? Even if I go to work, you’ll still have your grandson to keep you company.”

"Of course I want to," Li Suhua said, her heart fluttering.

As she gets older, she does indeed want to have a grandchild.

So he looked at Zhou Bingkun and asked, "When are you planning to get married?"

Zhou Bingkun shared his idea: "Mom, I'm planning to have a big celebration on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, when everyone is free! We won't have a big celebration, just a meal with relatives and friends. What do you think?"

Li Suhua nodded in agreement: "Aside from the tight schedule, it's right not to hold a big event. It's better to keep a low profile these days."

"Then you agreed?"

Li Suhua smiled and said, "I agree! Here's what we'll do: once the post office is open, you can send a letter to your dad, your older brother, and your sister to tell them about it."

“Of course, no problem.” Zhou Bingkun thought for a moment and then said, “Mom, there’s something else I need to tell you.”

Zhou Bingkun's words instantly alerted Li Suhua: "What bad thing have you been doing behind my back again?"

Zhou Bingkun rolled his eyes, somewhat speechless: "Mom, am I really that unreliable in your eyes?"

"Stop joking around, hurry up and tell me what's going on!" Li Suhua asked Zhou Bingkun anxiously.

Zhou Bingkun pursed his lips: "I rented an apartment outside."

"Rented a house?" Li Suhua looked puzzled. "Rented what house? Why would you rent a house out of the blue?"

Seeing that Li Suhua wasn't as angry as he had imagined, Zhou Bingkun breathed a slight sigh of relief and then explained, "Mom, don't be angry with me. Our house in Guangzi District is big enough, but it's really inconvenient. Getting water, using the toilet, and so on are all very inconvenient!"

"The apartment I rented is very close to the publishing house, making it convenient for commuting. It's also spacious enough, with three bedrooms, two living rooms, and a small yard outside that I can use as a vegetable garden."

"You're renting such a big house, so you're not planning to come back and live here in the future?" Li Suhua's expression tightened.

Zhou Bingkun laughed and said, "How could that be? This is my home, how could I not come back? What I was thinking was that after Zheng Juan and I get married, we'll have a child soon. When I go to work, it will be very inconvenient for you to stay at home, so I rented that house."

"You mean, you want me to move there too?"

Zhou Bingkun's eyes widened in surprise. He said, "Mom, what are you saying? You're my mom, how could I not think about you? There are only the two of us in our family now. No matter where I go, whether I'm married or not, I'll definitely take you with me, unless you don't want me as your son anymore."

"You little rascal," Li Suhua said, her anxiety subsiding. "Renting such a big house must have cost a lot of money, right? Mom will give you all the money your dad sent back; take it and use it."

Chapter 133, Teaching Luo Shibin a Lesson! (Happy Lunar New Year's Eve, dear readers!)

Zhou Bingkun waved his hand: "No need, I have enough money! Mom, how about I take you to see that house tomorrow? I had Zheng Juan tidy it up for a few days, it should be much better now."

Li Suhua thought for a moment and said, "It's fine to take a look, but I don't want to live there. I've lived in Guangzi area for so many years and I'm used to it. I don't want to go through the hassle of moving to another place."

"Absolutely not! Mom, if you don't want to go, does it mean you don't want to help me take care of the kids?"

Li Suhua snorted, "Taking care of a child is nothing! It's just that I'm used to being here! After you and Zheng Juan get married, you two can live your own lives. As long as you're happy, you don't need to worry about me."

Zhou Bingkun naturally wouldn't agree: "You're my mother, how can I not worry? Anyway, I've made up my mind, if you don't go, then I won't go either! At worst, we'll just let the rent for that house go down the drain for several years!"

Upon hearing this, Li Suhua immediately became anxious: "Kun'er, how many years have you been paying rent for that house?"

"Yes, the rent is 100 yuan a year, and I signed a five-year lease."

Snapped!

Li Suhua went up and slapped Zhou Bingkun, angrily yelling, "You brat, are you out of your mind? How can you rent a house like this? 100 yuan a year, renting for five years?"

Zhou Bingkun wasn't telling the truth, but he had to say it in order to get Li Suhua to come along.

“So, in order not to waste this money, we have no choice but to go and stay there,” Zhou Bingkun said, looking at Li Suhua.

In the end, Li Suhua was persuaded by Zhou Bingkun.

Zhou Bingkun's persuasion was part of the reason.

More importantly, it's just her and Zhou Bingkun at home now. If her youngest son leaves too, she will truly be all alone.

Having convinced Li Suhua, Zhou Bingkun immediately shared the good news with Zheng Juan.

"Really? Auntie really agreed to our marriage?" Zheng Juan's joy was undisguised.

She had wanted to marry Zhou Bingkun for a long time.

However, being a dutiful daughter, she dared not bring up the matter until Li Suhua and Zhou Zhigang agreed.

Fortunately, Zhou Bingkun has always given her confidence, preventing her from being anxious about gains and losses.

Now that she knows Li Suhua has agreed, she feels completely stunned.

It seemed as if countless noisy sounds were ringing in my ears, but I couldn't hear any of them.

Zheng Juan's expression of fear and surprise filled Zhou Bingkun with guilt. He gently embraced her and said, "Yes, it's true! I've already talked to my mom. We'll get married on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year. The location will be near our new house. We'll have a chef prepare a few tables of food at home. What do you think?"

Zheng Juan looked at Zhou Bingkun: "The sixth day of the first lunar month, is it that urgent?"

"Is there a rush? If it weren't for waiting for my parents, I would have married you last year, and our first child might already be born by now," Zhou Bingkun said with a smile.

Zheng Juan blushed instantly and said coquettishly, "You're so annoying."

Zhou Bingkun's expression suddenly became extremely serious. He placed his hands on Zheng Juan's shoulders and looked at her intently: "Juan'er, marry me! I can't guarantee you'll be the happiest woman in the world, but I can guarantee I'll do everything in my power to make you happy! Do you believe me?"

Zheng Juan's shy demeanor gradually faded, and she said just as earnestly, "I believe you, I believe you."

Zhou Bingkun pulled Zheng Juan into his arms again, holding her tightly: "I'm planning to take my mom to see the house over there tomorrow, you can come with me."

"Mmm." Zheng Juan nodded in Zhou Bingkun's arms.

She felt that becoming Zhou Bingkun's wife would be the happiest thing in the world.

She must have been a very kind person in her past life, doing many good deeds, to deserve this good fortune in this life.

Zhou Bingkun spent some time with Zheng Juan before going home alone.

Not far from Zheng Juan's house, Zhou Bingkun frowned.

Suddenly, two strangers blocked his way with their bicycles.

It was already quite dark, and he couldn't make out the other person's features: "Gentlemen, whether you're after money or have some other purpose, you've come to the wrong person!"

He had heard about the chaos in Taiping Hutong many times before.

He had been to Taiping Hutong many times, but this was the first time he had been stopped.

Of course, he wouldn't be afraid even if there were two more people blocking his way, let alone two.

Although he lacked practical combat experience, his first-tier strength was enough for him to overwhelmingly defeat ordinary people in this world who didn't carry guns.

"Don't misunderstand, we're not here to rob you, but to discuss a business deal with you." The two men took a few steps closer to Zhou Bingkun, one of them walking with an unsteady gait, seemingly having a leg problem, and spoke softly.

As the two approached, Zhou Bingkun could see their faces clearly.

It turns out to be the water flowing naturally and Luo Shibin from the future video.

Zhou Bingkun naturally had no good feelings towards these two people: "They blocked my way in the middle of the night, saying they wanted to talk business. Is this how you talk business?"

"Kid, how dare you talk to Brother Shui like that? Believe me or not, I'll..." Hearing Zhou Bingkun's rudeness, Luo Shibin immediately became anxious.

“Binzi!” Shui Ziliu interrupted Luo Shibin, “Brother, we really have no ill intentions! There are reasons why we came to find you at this time. But I assure you, we are serious about doing business.”

Seeing the way the water flowed naturally, Zhou Bingkun became curious about their purpose: "Do you know who I am?"

"Of course we know! If we didn't know, we wouldn't be waiting for you here." Shui Ziliu said to Zhou Bingkun with a smile.

Zhou Bingkun said without changing his expression, "Stopping me in the middle of the night, wanting to talk business with me, I suppose the business you're talking about is something shady, right?"

"Why the hell do you talk so much nonsense?" Luo Shibin was very annoyed by Zhou Bingkun's indifferent demeanor and started cursing at him.

At this moment, Zhou Bingkun had already stopped his bicycle. He appeared in front of Luo Shibin in a flash, grabbed Luo Shibin's finger, and twisted it forcefully.

"Ah!" Luo Shibin let out a shrill scream.

The excruciating pain from his broken finger made him bend over in agony.

Then Zhou Bingkun kicked him in the chest, sending the burly Luo Shibin tumbling to the ground.

“You…” This sudden scene horrified Shui Ziliu, who immediately tried to attack Zhou Bingkun.

Zhou Bingkun suddenly looked at him: "Do you want to end up like him?"

Shui Ziliu swallowed hard, abandoning his plan to take action.

Although he was the leader, Luo Shibin was the one who was the strongest fighter between the two of them.

Even Luo Shibin was taken down by Zhou Bingkun in one fell swoop; it would be pointless for him to go up against him.

Chapters 134: Eliminate Shui Ziliu and Luo Shibin to prevent future troubles! (Happy New Year's Eve, dear readers!)

However, in this situation, Shui Ziliu couldn't remain silent: "Brother, aren't you being a bit too harsh?"

"Ruthless? No, no, no, not ruthless at all!" Zhou Bingkun revealed a cold smile. "I have something even more ruthless to offer!"

As he spoke, Zhou Bingkun quickly approached Shui Ziliu, who was still in a daze, and knocked him down with a punch.

Looking at Shui Ziliu and Luo Shibin, whom he had knocked down, Zhou Bingkun snapped their necks without hesitation and threw their bodies into the chat group's backpack.

Zhou Bingkun had just used his internal energy to search the surroundings and found no trace of human activity, so he didn't need to worry about being seen killing someone.

Shui Ziliu and Luo Shibin were both single street urchins who didn't even have a home.

Even if they suddenly disappear, no one will care, so there's no need to worry about anyone calling the police to look for them.

Ever since watching the future video, Shui Ziliu and Luo Shibin have been a constant worry for Zhou Bingkun.

However, he didn't want to attract other people's attention, so he didn't take the initiative to find those two guys.

Now that they've come to him of their own accord, Zhou Bingkun is naturally not going to let them go!

Having been influenced by Ying Zheng and Yue Buqun in the chat group, Zhou Bingkun naturally learned to be ruthless at crucial moments!
