Chapter 801 Zhu Minjie's Foolish Idea: The Plan to Force the Issue
Hearing Zhu Minjie finally say "I'll help you," Zhou Chen was overjoyed.
There's a saying that fortresses are always breached from within. Since I can't do anything to Zhu Zhe, I'll let your younger brother take action. That way, Zhu Zhe won't be able to blame Zhou Chen.
"You're going to help me, Xiao Jie, so how are you going to help me?"
Zhou Chen asked with a look of surprise, seemingly very interested in the topic.
Upon seeing this, Zhu Minjie laughed. It seemed that there was still something to talk about between them, which was a good sign.
Zhu Minjie waved to the waiter to bring a few more bottles of beer before saying to Zhou Chen, "Brother-in-law, I'm really concerned about you pursuing my sister. I've been thinking about this for the past few days. In my opinion, you just need an opportunity."
Since we don't have a chance, we'll create one. You can drink more later, and we'll find a hotel to stay in. I'll call my sister and ask her to come and take care of you.
"Using the alcohol, you said everything you needed to say, and then you just slept with my sister. If you could just get to the point where it's a fait accompli, then you could be together."
Zhu Minjie boasted about his idea, saying that he had been thinking about this problem for the past few days. He felt that once the deed was done, it would be too late, and his older sister would stop putting on airs.
At that point, the eldest sister would have no choice but to accept the fact that she had become Zhou Chen's woman, thus solidifying their relationship and securing her position as his brother-in-law.
In Zhou Chen's view, it was true that the deed was done, but getting Zhou Chen drunk was a stupid idea. If you get me drunk, do you expect Zhu Zhe to climb into bed with you willingly?
It's even possible that Zhu Zhe will bring Yu Chuhui along to avoid suspicion, since Yu Chuhui is Zhou Chen's girlfriend and it would be best for her to take care of Zhou Chen.
If such a thing happens, then Zhu Minjie's plan to force the issue will fail. Does that mean Zhou Chen will bully Zhu Zhe in front of Yu Chuhui?
This plan largely depends on Zhu Zhe's subjective intentions, and the chances of failure are high. One failure could make Zhu Zhe more vigilant, making the next opportunity to make a move seem less likely.
Although that's what he was thinking, Zhou Chen praised Zhu Minjie on the surface, saying, "Good idea. As long as we can make it a fait accompli, Zhu Zhe will be my woman, and she won't be able to escape my grasp."
"Xiao Jie, let's do it your way. My happiness depends on you. If I can win over your sister, we'll be family, and the job thing will be easy to talk about."
Zhou Chen immediately made a guarantee, thinking that if he wanted someone to put in the effort, he should at least let them taste some reward.
With Zhou Chen's assurance, Zhu Minjie was even happier. He patted his chest and said, "Brother-in-law, leave the rest to me. Let's continue drinking. We have to go all out. My sister is very shrewd, so don't let her see through our act."
Zhu Minjie seemed very happy; he felt no guilt whatsoever for betraying his sister.
Zhou Chen drank several bottles of beer in a row, then pretended to be drunk. After that, they went to a nearby hotel, and it was up to Zhu Minjie to decide what to do next.
Zhu Minjie gestured for Zhou Chen to remain silent, and then called his older sister.
"Big sister, where are you? Something's happened to me, and I need your help urgently. You'd better come over right away."
I'm at the Super 8 Hotel near Zhongshan Road, waiting for you at the entrance.
Zhu Minjie's words were ambiguous, and then he hung up the phone.
He only said he had something to help with, without specifying what it was, clearly intending to make Zhu Zhe anxious so she wouldn't have time to think.
Of course, this was also Zhou Chen's suggestion. He made things ambiguous first, without mentioning that Zhou Chen was drunk. This way, Zhu Zhe would only think it was his younger brother's problem, and would be embarrassed to ask the neighbor for help. This way, the plan to make things fait accompli would have a higher success rate.
Suspecting that something serious had happened to her younger brother, Zhu Zhe took a taxi directly over. She was relieved to see her brother standing unharmed at the hotel entrance.
"Why did you call me in such a hurry? What happened to you?"
Seeing his sister's anxious look, Zhu Minjie pulled her into the hotel and introduced her as they walked: "Big sister, it's not my business, it's Zhou Chen's."
You said Zhou Chen was a rich man, so I wanted to get a good job through him. But when we were drinking, I didn't pay attention to the limits and got him drunk.
I was thinking of taking a taxi to send Zhou Chen back, but I almost threw up in the car. Instead of spending money on a car wash, I might as well book him a room nearby.
He's completely drunk now, and there's nothing I can do about it. You work in hotel services, so you should have experience in this area.
I can only call you and ask you to come and help look after Zhou Chen. I can't just leave him there, can I? I'm counting on you to help me find a job.
After listening to his younger brother's explanation, Zhu Zhe frowned immediately. "Why are you two drinking together?"
Hearing that his younger brother was asking Zhou Chen to help him find a job, Zhu Zhe was even more speechless. Are you and Zhou Chen that close?
Wait a minute, what if my brother uses my name to ask Zhou Chen for help? Wouldn't that leave me in a debt to Zhou Chen?
Zhu Zhe wanted to scold his younger brother for his lack of discretion, but Zhu Minjie took Zhu Zhe into the room and then slipped away.
"Big sister, if you want to scold me, you'll have plenty of opportunities later. Zhou Chen is very strong when he's drunk, and I can't handle him. I'm leaving him to you from now on."
You absolutely must take good care of Zhou Chen. Otherwise, when he wakes up tomorrow and sees no one taking care of him, all the hard work I put into drinking with him will be for naught. How can I possibly ask him to help me find a job then?
I'm going back now. A room costs several hundred yuan; I can't afford it.
Without waiting for Zhu Zhe's reaction, Zhu Minjie slipped away, his purpose being to give Zhou Chen and his older sister space to talk. He felt he had done what he needed to do, and now it was up to Zhou Chen to handle things on his own.
Zhu Zhe really wanted to scold his younger brother. Why should I clean up the mess you made? If you hadn't gotten Zhou Chen drunk, this trouble wouldn't have happened.
However, if Zhou Chen is really willing to help his younger brother find a good job, Zhu Zhe will not object.
Unfortunately, Zhu Zhe was unaware that the bargaining chip her brother was using to make a deal with Zhou Chen was actually herself. Now, she was practically walking into the lion's den.
Looking at Zhou Chen lying on the bed in a completely unruly manner, it seemed that he really had drunk too much.
Zhu Zhe walked to the bedside and gently nudged Zhou Chen twice, calling his name, but Zhou Chen didn't respond at all, clearly intending to continue pretending to be drunk.
