Chapter 755: Chapter 755: Playing Matchmaker (2 more)
Qu Xiaoran couldn’t stand the sight of them hovering around her best friend, whose delicate demeanor was simply not cut out for these rough men’s flirtatious antics, and she couldn’t help but scold them loudly.
"All of you, get lost and stop being an eyesore here."
Although the men were reluctant, they didn’t dare to go against Qu Xiaoran and could only sheepishly take their leave.
However, the news that a great beauty had arrived at the base spread rapidly.
Since women were scarce in this place, the arrival of a great beauty was bound to arouse curiosity throughout the entire base.
So the news went from one to ten, ten to a hundred, and finally reached the ears of Ye Shaoting, who was at the time training his men alongside Jin Yu.
Both their squads were side by side.
Ye Shaoting heard this piece of gossip through an old boss at the base, responsible for mediating the relationships of the base staff’s families.
Elder Du hurried over, muttering a few words into Ye Shaoting’s ear.
Ye Shaoting let his men continue practicing and walked over to Elder Du, "Elder Du, what did you just say? I didn’t catch that."
Elder Du, well over fifty this year, originally named Du Jian, maintained a lean and scholarly appearance despite his age, embodying the charm of an older male to the fullest.
"Xiao Ye, I heard that Captain Qu has a sister visiting today to see the family."
Being a literati, even after spending so much time on the base, Du Jian spoke gently and melodically, which to Ye Shaoting’s ears felt tediously slow.
"What’s that got to do with me?" Ye Shaoting was puzzled.
With a habitual smile on his face, Du Jian clapped Ye Shaoting on the shoulder, "You see, Xiao Ye, you’re not getting any younger. Jin Yu and Ruiyang are about your age, one has kids, the other a fiancée, while you’re still single. Don’t you think it’s about time to resolve this major life issue?"
Ye Shaoting was sharp-minded and immediately grasped Du Jian’s implication.
Raising an eyebrow, he asked, "Qu Xiaoran’s best friend is single?"
Seeing how quickly he had understood, Du Jian’s smile grew even wider. freewёbnoνel.com
Those tough men in the base were all straightforward types, and only Ye Shaoting was comparatively astute.
Just as he was pondering a match-making opportunity, Ye Shaoting threw out a comment, "Better not. I dare not take a chance with Qu Xiaoran’s friend. I don’t want to end up battered or change my surname to yours."
"Tsk, what’s up with that? You, a bachelor, are now being picky? Let me tell you, she’s very pretty and polite too. My spouse has met her and said she’s a fine girl with a good way of talking. She’s not like Xiao Qu at all, she’s rather gentle."
"Then you might want to introduce her to the brothers. I’m not interested."
Ye Shaoting removed Du Jian’s hand from his shoulder and focused on training his team.
Seeing he was getting nowhere with Ye Shaoting, Elder Du "hmphed" in annoyance, but knowing how close Jin Yu was to Ye Shaoting, he cheerfully went over to pull Jin Yu into the conversation.
As soon as Jin Yu saw Elder Du approaching, he beamed with a smile and patted Elder Du on the shoulder, "Elder Du, good you’re here. Just take over for me and keep an eye on these rascals. I’ve got to prepare breakfast for my wife and kid."
Elder Du: "..."
Before he could respond, Jin Yuzheng had already run off, leaving Elder Du instantly deflated.
"Little brat."
Couldn’t any of them wait and let him finish his sentence?
Ye Shaoting, witnessing this, couldn’t help but snicker. Fearing that Elder Du would come nagging at him again, he quickly led his team away.
"Move it, move it, Elder Du will be heading this way again soon."
His frantic manner made one think something dire was chasing after them.
Elder Du found the situation both exasperating and amusing.
After all, whom was he doing this for?
