The legitimate daughter of the marquis, Lin Ran, who had just experienced the loss of her mother and the only relative in her maternal family, was plotted against by her father and stepmother, but ...
Lin Ran asked casually, "Mom, Third Brother, have you thanked him?"
Shen Wenfang was watching Shi Yan leave, but when she saw her daughter coming over, she immediately grabbed Lin Ran's arm and began to praise Shi Yan.
"Ranran, you don't know. At this time, the educated youth was really speechless. You said that he saved your third brother and what a great favor he did to our family, but he didn't care at all and just said it was a small favor."
"We offered him mushrooms but he refused, and even invited him to our house for dinner, but he refused. It seems he really doesn't take it seriously. Where can we find such a brave guy who doesn't expect anything in return?"
"The key point is that this educated youth is not only a good person, but also looks even better! I wonder which girl will marry such a handsome guy in the future!"
Having said that, Shen Wenfang paused and suddenly looked at Lin Ran beside him.
Yes, Shi Zhiqing is such an outstanding young man, just the right match for her daughter Ranran!
The man is talented and the woman is beautiful, what a perfect match!
When Shen Wenfang thought about Shi Zhiqing becoming her son-in-law, she was so satisfied that she couldn't suppress the smile on her face.
But suddenly she thought of something, the smile on Shen Wenfang's face faded, and she quickly changed her words:
"I don't care which girl he is, you can't fall for him anyway."
"No matter how good the educated youth are at this time, they are still educated youth sent to the countryside. They may go back to the city one day. So, we can't be confused about the important matter of life and death!"
Lin Ran was listening at the side and was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
"Mom, what are you thinking? My daughter doesn't even know the educated youth, let alone like him."
What's more, even though Lin Ran has experienced time travel, the idea of marriage arranged by parents and matchmakers in her previous life still remains in her bones.
Although it's not much, it's absolutely impossible to do anything that would damage one's reputation by privately giving or receiving it.
Lin Lao San, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but interrupt when he heard this:
"Mom, I'm telling you, you're just worrying for nothing. I think that educated youth definitely doesn't like my little sister!"
This made Shen Wenfang very angry, and she slapped Lin Laosan on the head.
"How can you talk like that? Why does he look down on my Ranran? If he doesn't like her, it should be our Ranran who looks down on him!"
"Ouch, it hurts so much, Mom! You hit me too hard! Are you still my real mother? I'm still injured, and you're still hitting me. Aren't you afraid that I'll get hurt even more?"
Lin Laosan rubbed his head and complained dissatisfiedly.
Shen Wenfang didn't buy it and ruthlessly exposed it:
"Yes, injuries. Serious injuries, injuries that are almost healing without any treatment!"
"It's useless. I'm telling you, stop pretending to be pathetic. If I hear you deliberately slandering Ranran again next time, I'll beat you to death!"
Lin Laosan was really wronged this time.
"Mom, you're too authoritarian. You hit me without any reason. And I didn't mean to insult my younger sister. I was just telling the truth. Shi Zhiqing really didn't like my younger sister!"
Shen Wenfang's face turned very bad when she heard this. Although she didn't want Ranran to have anything to do with Shi Zhiqing, it didn't mean that she would feel comfortable when she heard that Shi Zhiqing looked down on Ranran.
Why would he, an educated youth, look down on her precious daughter who was the apple of her eye and was perfect in every way?
I thought so in my heart and asked it out loud.
At this time, Shen Wenfang had long forgotten that Shi Yan was the savior of his third son, and the words of praise he had just given him.
Her mind was full of thoughts about how Shi Yan was so short-sighted that he looked down upon her precious daughter!
Lin Ran found it funny that Shen Wenfang was so serious. She didn't care. Whether others looked down on her or not was their business and had nothing to do with her.
But she was also a little curious about where Lin Laosan came to this conclusion. Could it be that something unpleasant had happened between her and Shi Yan before?
Being stared at by the two, Lin Lao San felt his scalp tingling, fearing that he would be beaten again, and hurriedly explained:
"It's just this basket of wild vegetables and mushrooms. I just tried to persuade Shi Zhiqing to accept it. He was reluctant at first, but he couldn't get over me and finally relented."
"It's also my fault for mentioning that this was picked by my younger sister after working hard all morning. But when the educated youth heard it was picked by my younger sister, he refused to accept it."
"No matter what I say later, it's useless. They've gone to such lengths to avoid suspicion. What else is there to not understand?"
After Lin Laosan reminded Shen Wenfang, he also remembered Shi Yan's reaction just now.
But she didn't care at that time. Now when she thinks about it carefully, it seems that is what the other person meant. After realizing this, Shen Wenfang immediately wanted to curse.
"Who is this person? How dare you look down on our Ranran!"
As soon as Shen Wenfang said this, she suddenly realized that Lin Ran was right next to her. She quickly stopped talking and looked at Lin Ran cautiously.
She knew that although her daughter was not familiar with Shi Yan, she was still a little girl after all, and she would definitely feel uncomfortable hearing that she was disliked by others.
Lin Ran took Shen Wenfang's arm and said playfully:
"Mom, it's okay. I'm not made of gold. How can I be liked by everyone?"
"But, those people who don't like me must be because they have no taste. I definitely wouldn't like something like this!"
She really didn't care. It didn't matter what the other person did. They were just strangers and she would never have any dealings with them again. It wouldn't affect her at all.
Shen Wenfang was relieved when she saw that Lin Ran really didn't care.
The two of them walked home chatting affectionately, completely forgetting about Shi Yan.
Feeling that he had said something wrong, Lin Laosan limped silently behind them, not daring to complain that no one helped him.
…
At the same time, on the way to the educated youth point, Shi Yan sneezed several times in a row.
Zhou Manman hurried over and asked with concern:
"Shi Zhiqing, what's wrong with you? Did you catch a cold after going in the water?"
Seeing Zhou Manman approaching, Shi Yan subconsciously took a few steps back and spoke in a distant tone.
"I'm fine."
Zhou Manman had gotten used to Shi Yan's cold attitude during this period, so she didn't care and continued to find conversation.
"By the way, Shi Zhiqing, you were amazing just now! You even knew CPR!"
He is indeed the man I like, he knows so much!
But what disappointed her was that even in the face of her praise, Shi Yan still had that indifferent attitude and didn't even look at her.
“I learned it by accident before.”
After saying that, Shi Yan walked forward quickly and soon put some distance between himself and Zhou Manman.
This made Zhou Manman feel discouraged again. As the daughter of a wealthy family, she finally fell in love with a man, but he turned out to be a hard nut to crack.
But she quickly adjusted herself. It was normal for a gay man as outstanding as Shi Yan to be difficult to approach.
But she believed that she could definitely defeat Shi Yan!
As the daughter of the richest man, she would still be a super rich woman even if she traveled back to the 1970s!
Thinking of her own shopping mall trading space and the Zhou family treasures she had collected, Zhou Manman subconsciously raised her head and chest, and looked at Shi Yan with a determination to win.
