After Lin Wanwan finished speaking, Qian Qian stopped talking. They were both smart people and knew when to stop.

Qian Qian wasn't afraid that she would make a mistake, but that Cheng Jinyan would get stuck on a rut.

Neither of them spoke again. After sitting for almost half an hour, Qian Qian sighed and said, "Grandma is old and her thinking is outdated. Grandma isn't blaming you, she's just afraid you'll get hurt in the middle."

"Grandma, I know you mean well. I know what I'm doing."

Seeing that Lin Wanwan had been in the small garden for so long, Cheng Jinyan came looking for her.

"Master's wife, is it because you find us too troublesome that you've come out to find some peace and quiet?"

Qian Qian smiled and looked at him, "Yes, none of you are as well-behaved as my little girl."

Lin Wanwan slumped in the rattan chair and said, "It's just that there's no sun. It would be perfect if there were sun. Senior brother, are you here to join us?"

Can I join?

Qian Qian pointed to the rattan chair next to her, "Sit down and talk."

Lin Wanwan immediately poured him a cup of flower tea. "Senior brother, have some tea."

"Do you need something from me?" Cheng Jinyan asked, raising an eyebrow.

Lin Wanwan slumped back down and looked at him, asking, "What do you mean by that?"

"His fawning expression made me think he wanted something from me."

"Hehe, of course I need your help."

Cheng Jinyan didn't speak, but raised an eyebrow and took a sip of tea.

"Senior brother, give me your little white horse. I'm so curious about it after you told me about it last time."

Cheng Jinyan lowered his head and smiled, "Can you ride it? You just asked me for it, asking for my white horse right off the bat."

"You said you'd teach me, don't go back on your word," Lin Wanwan said listlessly, her head spinning and feeling sleepy.

"Teach me, and once you've learned to speak French, I'll give you the little white horse, but there's a time limit."

Lin Wanwan tilted her head and asked, "How long will it take to learn?"

"This semester, we also need to learn professional terminology."

Lin Wanwan held out her hand to him, "It's a promise, don't go back on your word."

Cheng Jinyan reached out and gave her a light handshake. "Yes, I won't go back on my word."

Lin Wanwan had only intended to test him, but Cheng Jinyan agreed so readily that she was even more confused and felt a little dazed.

"Wanwan, wake up, you'll catch a cold."

Lin Wanwan was shaken awake by Qian Qian. She rubbed her eyes and asked, "Was I asleep?"

"Hmm, don't sleep, you'll catch a cold."

"Grandma, I feel a little dizzy."

Qian Qian reached out and touched her forehead. "It's a little hot. Let's go back inside first. Let's go."

Lin Wanwan bumped into Lu Feng as soon as she entered the room. Feeling dizzy, she leaned on him and said, "Lu Feng, I feel dizzy."

Lu Feng supported her shoulders and reached out to touch her forehead.

Qian Qian hurriedly said, "Let's go back inside first, he seems to have a fever."

Lu Feng picked her up and carried her upstairs to the bedroom.

The people inside the house knew she had a fever, and a flurry of activity ensued.

Lin Wanwan lay on the bed, feeling dizzy. She looked around at the people around her. Cheng Jinyan stood at the foot of the bed, looking at her with a worried expression, as did Mu Lin.

At this moment, Lin Wanwan wished she could just faint. How was she going to face Cheng Jinyan and Mu Lin after this? Mu Lin was even from the same school as her.

"Wanwan, is there anything else that's bothering you?" Lu Feng asked anxiously.

Lin Wanwan reached out and took his hand, whispering, "It's nothing, my head is just buzzing. I'll be fine after a nap. I didn't sleep well last night, and it's all your fault."

Lu Feng tightened his grip on her hand. Qian Qian, seeing so many people in the room, quickly shooed them away, "Everyone, leave, leave. Don't disturb her rest. It's not very hot. Lu Feng, there's a thermometer on the bedside table. Take her temperature."

Lu Feng nodded and took her temperature with a thermometer.

The younger generation in the house had all been driven away by Qian Qian. Apart from Lu Feng and her, only Xu Zhang, Song Lanzhi, and He Yumei remained.

"Nannan, is there anything else that's bothering you?" Qian Qian touched her little face.

Seeing Lin Wanwan shake her head, He Yumei stepped forward, took her hand, and asked, "Don't hide it from us, just tell us if you feel unwell."

Lin Wanwan couldn't help but laugh. "Mom, I'm fine. I probably just didn't sleep well last night. I'll be fine after a nap."

Qian Qian glanced at the thermometer. "It's okay, it's not very high. Lu Feng, stay with her and let her sleep for a while before checking again. Feel her forehead anytime, and call us if anything happens."

Qian Qian shooed the rest of the people out of the bedroom, saying, "Go, go, it's alright, let her rest."

Seeing that everyone in the room had left, Lu Fengye took off his coat and lay down on the bed.

Lin Wanwan snuggled closer to him and rubbed against him.

"I'm sorry, Wanwan. I was too petty. I was jealous. Mu Lin likes you, and Cheng Jinyan likes you too. Zheng Yan is right. You are so good. I am not good enough for you at all."

Lu Feng kissed the top of her head, and before she could answer, he continued, "But I'm also trying to become better, so don't look at others first, okay?"

Lin Wanwan nestled in his arms, her voice muffled, whether from a cold or something else, making her seem even more delicate and vulnerable.

“Lu Feng, I have never thought you are not good enough, nor do I think you are worse than anyone else. When we first got married, I also thought that I was not good enough at all, and even a little bad. Why did you agree to marry me? I am not good enough for you at all. Apart from my good looks, I am really useless.”

"But you're not someone who only cares about looks. Besides, if it were just about looks, I believe you could find someone prettier than me. That might sound a bit pretentious, but I think there's some truth to it."

"Eileen Chang said that when she met him, she became very humble, so humble that she was in the dust. But he was happy, and a flower bloomed from the dust. Love is always feeling indebted, but also feeling precious."

"It's a bit sentimental, but Lu Feng, I've never regretted marrying you. No matter how outstanding someone comes along in the future, I won't regret it. Even if we don't grow old together in the end, I won't regret it."

Lin Wanwan felt Lu Feng's hand tremble slightly, and then he hugged her tightly again. "Because what they see is me becoming more beautiful and more outstanding, but the person who accompanies me to become better is you. Only you have believed in me, loved me, and decided to spend your life with me from the very beginning. These are things that none of them can compare to."

"Lu Feng, we may meet many people in the future, and so will you. Some of them may be prettier or more outstanding than me. Will you divorce me because of these things?"

"No, their excellence or beauty has nothing to do with me. In my eyes, you are the most beautiful and the most outstanding."

Lin Wanwan chuckled lightly, "Then please have some faith in me. I am just as determined as you are."

Lu Feng released his grip on her and lowered his head to kiss her deeply.

Lin Wanwan felt even more dizzy from his kiss and said breathlessly, "Don't stay silent anymore, or I'll start overthinking."

"Okay, I won't do it again."

Lin Wanwan nestled in his arms and fell asleep contentedly.

Lu Feng thought to himself that he must have done something incredibly good in his past life to be able to meet her in this life.
