Unable to contain her excitement, Yu Zhenzhen said in a slightly trembling voice, "Could Aunt Hui ask Dr. Lin for me? I have some things I'd like to ask her about. But she's playing chess with Uncle Gong right now, and I'm a little embarrassed to go and ask her directly!"

Upon hearing this, Grandma Gong immediately stood up and said with a smile, "Okay, Zhenzhen, don't worry, I'll go ask Xiaojin for you right away." After saying that, she turned and walked towards the direction where Lin Jin and Uncle Gong were playing chess.

Grandma Gong walked to Lin Jin's side and said softly, "Little Jin, there's something I want to tell you." Lin Jin looked up, saw Grandma Gong, and smiled as she replied, "Grandma, please go ahead."

Grandma Gong then told Lin Jin about Yu Zhenzhen's time working in the countryside in Suzhou and conveyed Yu Zhenzhen's wish to have a chat with her. Upon hearing this, Lin Jin's heart stirred; she felt that this Yu Zhenzhen might very well be the Yu family girl she had been searching for, and perhaps even her birth mother!

At this moment, Old Master Gong, who was standing nearby, overheard Old Madam Gong and Lin Jin's conversation and looked somewhat displeased. However, when he saw Old Madam Gong glare at him, he could only helplessly say, "Alright then, I'll go to my study to read for a while." After saying that, he turned and left the living room.

Lin Jin watched Grandpa Gong's departing figure, a smile playing on her lips. She turned to Grandma Gong and said, "Grandma, I'd love to chat with Aunt Yu." Grandma Gong nodded in satisfaction.

Seeing the Gong family's affection for Lin Jin, Li Yunlu's jealousy grew wildly like weeds. "Why does this country bumpkin get Grandpa and Grandma Gong's favor!" she cursed inwardly.

What Li Yunlu found even more unacceptable was that her mother also planned to talk to Lin Jin. This was undoubtedly rubbing salt into her wounds, deepening her disgust for Lin Jin.

She glared at Lin Jin, then ran to Yu Zhenzhen's side like a rabbit, hugged her mother's arm tightly, and pouted coquettishly, "Mom, what are you talking to her about? She's just a country bumpkin, what could she possibly know?"

Yu Zhenzhen was clearly dissatisfied with Li Yunlu's attitude. She glared at her daughter and said sternly, "How many times have I told you not to look down on anyone! Who didn't come from the countryside? It's so rude of you to talk like that!"

However, before Yu Zhenzhen could finish speaking, she suddenly noticed that Old Madam Gong and Lin Jin had already walked up to her. So, she quickly stood up and said to Lin Jin with a face full of apology, "Dr. Lin, I'm so sorry to have taken up your time."

Lin Jin, however, acted very amiably. With a faint smile on her face, she said softly, "Aunt Yu, please don't be so polite. I'm not in a hurry."

Seeing this, Grandma Gong quickly said, "Oh dear, everyone, don't stand there, sit down and let's talk." Then, she turned to Li Yunlu and said with a smile, "Yunlu, little girl, would you like to come with Grandma to the backyard to pick some flower petals? Grandma will make you rose cakes tomorrow!"

Li Yunlu was actually not very willing, but she couldn't refuse Grandma Gong directly, so she reluctantly agreed and followed Grandma Gong to the backyard, looking back every few steps.

After Grandma Gong and Li Yunlu had completely disappeared from the backyard gate, Yu Zhenzhen finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I heard that Dr. Lin is from Suzhou City. I wonder which part of Suzhou City he is from?"
