Zhang Ruoshui watched her son's hurried departure, then turned her gaze to Lin Yinuo, whose face was beaming with a smile as sweet as the warm spring sun.

Finally, the focus shifted to Su Qingyao, who stood to the side with a wronged expression, her lips slightly pouting as she sulked.

The scene before me seemed utterly absurd, and a big guess couldn't help but pop into my mind.

She gently shook her head, her heart filled with mixed emotions. "What kind of romantic entanglements has my son gotten himself into?"

After a brief pause,

She looked up at Lin Yinuo and smiled gently. "Yinuo, come here. Auntie wants to have a chat with you."

Lin Yinuo maintained a perfectly appropriate smile, but inwardly she felt a little nervous.

She took a deep breath, steadied herself, and obediently replied, "Okay, Auntie."

Then, she followed Zhang Ruoshui and slowly walked towards the corner of the courtyard.

Arriving at the corner of the courtyard, Zhang Ruoshui raised her hand and gently pointed to the stone bench beside her, gesturing for Lin Yinuo to sit down.

She slowly sat down, then let out a deep sigh.

She leaned forward slightly, looked at the beautiful Lin Yinuo in front of her, and said earnestly, "Yinuo, I think you are a good girl from the bottom of my heart. You are kind-hearted and pretty."

Your aunt isn't stupid; she can naturally see the special feelings you have for Qingzhou.

But as you know, Qingzhou now has her own family.

He has a deep affection for both Xiao Su and Xiao Mu, and also has two lovely daughters.

Although their family's life was somewhat complicated, it was still peaceful and happy.

Auntie sincerely hopes you can let go of your resentment and find true happiness for yourself. Please don't get hung up on Qingzhou; that's not fair to you.

Lin Yinuo listened quietly, her eyes lowered, her long eyelashes like two small fans casting a shadow on her cheeks.

His fingers unconsciously gripped the hem of his clothes, almost twisting it into a ball.

After a long silence, she slowly raised her head, a hint of determination in her eyes.

"Auntie, I know you mean well. Every word you say comes from the bottom of your heart, and I understand."

But my feelings for Brother Qingzhou are not something I can just let go of. It's like it's taken root in my heart and sprouted.

Since I was old enough to understand, I have been surrounded by many outstanding boys, but I have never been attracted to any of them.

Until I met Brother Qingzhou, that feeling of being moved was like a ray of light that instantly illuminated my entire world.

That feeling was truly magical; I think it was fate's arrangement.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Ruoshui was slightly taken aback. Images of her son's usual demeanor flashed through her mind, and she muttered to herself, "My son has such great charm? I've watched him grow up since he was a child, how come I never noticed that he had such great abilities?"

She gently shook her head, her eyes filled with helplessness, and was about to speak, "But with my son in this condition, how could you possibly..."

Lin Yinuo seemed to have anticipated what Zhang Ruoshui was going to say, and before she could finish speaking,

She interrupted urgently, saying, "Auntie, if you think about it from another perspective, since Brother Qingzhou can't get a marriage certificate with any of them yet, it means that everyone has an equal opportunity."

Don't worry too much. With more daughters-in-law, won't the Lu family line flourish even more in the future?

Zhang Ruoshui looked at Lin Yinuo, who was speaking eloquently and had a determined look in her eyes.

I felt a moment of disorientation, as if everything before my eyes had become so unreal.

She sighed, "The Lu family is thriving, so naturally I'm happy, but this matter... what exactly is this matter?"

In conclusion,

She sighed helplessly again, "Auntie is worried about you. If you keep going like this, you might be the one who gets hurt the most in the end. Qingzhou already has a family. He has to be responsible for Su Qingyao, Mu Shaohua, and the children. It's his responsibility and his duty."

Following Zhang Ruoshui's gaze, Lin Yinuo looked at Lu Qingzhou, who was busy not far away.

His shadow was stretched long in the afterglow of the setting sun, as if it were edged with gold.

Her eyes grew even more determined, showing no sign of backing down: "Auntie, I will definitely make Brother Qingzhou accept me. I will also make Miss Su and Miss Mu accept me. I don't ask for any titles or honors. As long as I can be by his side, I will be content."

"He's the one for me in this life. Only he can make my heart flutter, only he can make me do anything for him."

Speaking of this,

She chuckled and painted a "wonderful picture" for Zhang Ruoshui, "Auntie, just imagine, if Qingzhou and I get together in the future, along with Su Qingyao and Mu Shaohua, you'll have so many adorable grandchildren."

Imagine a group of cheerful little ones chattering and circling around you every day—what a lively and happy scene that would be! Doesn't that make you happy?

Upon hearing this, Zhang Ruoshui couldn't help but chuckle. The helplessness on her face was instantly softened by the sudden burst of laughter.

She gently tapped Lin Yinuo's forehead and said half-jokingly, "You little rascal, where did you learn all these twisted ideas? Don't try to make empty promises to your aunt, they're too big for her to handle."

"This isn't just empty promises; it will become a reality,"

Seeing Lin Yinuo's stubborn and determined appearance, Zhang Ruoshui was speechless for a moment, not knowing where to begin to persuade her.

She felt that the ideas of these young people were like a whirlwind, completely shattering her traditional understanding.

A question arose in my mind: 'Is the world changing too fast, or am I really falling behind the times?'
