Lin Yu opened her mouth wide and pointed to herself: "You mean, me and that Chen Songbai?"

Seeing her reaction, Qi Mei already understood what was going on.

"Yes, the Chen family said that you two are getting engaged."

Lin Yu stood up: "It's a misunderstanding! This is a huge misunderstanding!"

She doesn't even know Chen Songbai.

This is the first time I've met you today...

Qi Mei pulled her along and said, "I know, I could tell just now that you two didn't know each other."

"Xiaomei! Let me explain, I..." Chen Songbai suddenly rushed in, in a hurry.

Qi Mei stood up and looked at him, her eyes filled with sadness.

Chen Songbai felt as if his heart had been squeezed, and he was in so much pain that he didn't know what to do.

Lin Yu looked around and decided to act as the little judge of love.

"Sit down, all of you, and let's have a proper talk face to face."

Chen Songbai then noticed that there were so many people around him, and said somewhat embarrassedly, "I, we,"

He looks a bit like the old Li Dahui, but he can't speak.

Qi Mei chuckled and beckoned to him, "Come here."

Chen Songbai walked over awkwardly and sat down beside him.

The sun shines brightly outside the window, while inside, two lovers sit facing each other, unsure of what to say.

They never overstepped any boundaries, because Chen Songbai always secretly helped Qi Mei with chores and saved the best food for her.

Sometimes they would whisper a few words to each other when no one was around.

If Chen Songbai's mother hadn't caught him in the act, Chen Jianghu would never have known about it.

The two had always met in the fields, never before sitting in a clean and bright house, surrounded by a group of young people their own age.

The atmosphere was relaxed and pleasant.

Lin Yu said seriously, "Let me state first that I know nothing about blind dates, I don't know Comrade Chen Songbai before, and I have no feelings for Chen Songbai."

She already has a boyfriend!

Chen Songbai blushed, but still said, "I didn't know about the blind date before I came. My dad mentioned it to me before, but I refused."

"Xiaomei, I have never thought about marrying anyone."

Qi Mei looked at him with sad eyes: "I went to see you. Your mother told me that you are getting engaged to Comrade Lin Yu."

I asked your little pea to call you out, but you didn't come..."

"How could that be? Maodou didn't tell me!"

Ever since they started their secret affair, Little Bean has been their little messenger, often helping to deliver messages.

Qi Mei waited a long time without seeing Chen Songbai.

Finally, I understood what he meant.

Now everyone understands what happened.

Chen Songbai's face turned red. How could his parents do this?

"Xiaomei, don't worry, I will only marry you in this life. I will make things clear to my parents."

Qi Mei was not happy.

"Forget it, Chen Songbai, we weren't a good match to begin with."

She didn't want to argue anymore.

She understood what Chen Jianghu meant today: he wanted her to find someone to marry, but not his son.

Who in the world could abandon their parents and siblings?

Moreover, feelings can fade. What if he regrets it one day?

Chen Songbai was clearly unable to accept this and stood up, saying, "Xiaomei, you wait, I will explain everything to my parents!"

Then they ran away.

Qi Mei pursed her lips, looking dazed and somewhat lost.

Later, Qi Mei went home. Lin Yu wanted her to stay, but she refused.

Lin Yu had no choice but to tell her, "Legally, you are a free person. No one can imprison you or force you to marry."

If you are bullied, you must learn to fight back!

Qi Mei nodded. She was no longer afraid of anything; she was barefoot and not afraid of those wearing shoes.

Once a person loses everything, there is nothing left to fear.

After Qi Mei returned home, she had a huge fight with her mother-in-law and sister-in-law, but that's another story.

After she left, Lin Yu and the others were deeply moved, realizing that rumors were not to be believed.

Everyone says Qi Mei is a vixen, but she's actually just a pitiful person.

She can only rely on herself in this world. If she doesn't become strong, what else can she do?

When the whole family gathered together that evening, Grandma Lin asked about this matter.

The whole brigade was in an uproar today. If she weren't working in the workshop, she would have definitely gone to join in the fun.

Lin Yi and Er Niu watched the whole thing.

Therefore, the two of them told the whole story.

"Hmph, what kind of good person is Hu Youcai? That matchmaker even introduces him to potential partners, isn't that just harming them?"

Lin Laosan despised Hu Youcai the most; this man even dared to covet his daughter—it was utterly delusional.

Lin Yu agreed in her heart; that person's gaze was very unpleasant.

"I never expected Chen Songbai to turn out like this..." Lin Aiguo was somewhat disappointed.

He could understand Chen Jianghu's meaning; he was thinking of becoming in-laws with his children.

He originally thought Chen Songbai was a pretty good kid.

But unexpectedly...

In the eyes of the older generation, it was wrong for a young man like him to like widows.

Lin Yu pursed her lips when she thought of this: "Captain Chen even used me as a shield, saying that Chen Songbai wanted to get engaged to me."

Lin Aiguo thought to himself, "That's not a shield for him, he really has that intention!"

Lin Yu felt increasingly worse as she thought about it, as her marriage prospects seemed to be brought up frequently lately.

If this continues, how many more times will they have to arrange marriages for her?

This won't do.

Lin Yu then stood up and said, "Don't try to find me any more partners, I already have one!"
