Shen Jiaojiao looked towards Chen Jingzhuo, and he was also looking at her.

Yes, how could she forget that Chen Jingzhuo's family conditions were sufficient. His father now had another wife and other brothers and sisters. There was no one and nothing he cared about in that family.

Naturally, I won't try to please others for the sake of a woman.

She shook her head again and said, no, Chen Jingzhuo wouldn't like her either.

Shen Jiaojiao seemed to realize something and quickly said, "Comrade Chen, this is not something to joke about."

Chen Jingzhuo wasn't kidding, "Do you think I still need to rely on a woman?"

"That's not what I meant. It's just that..." Shen Jiaojiao couldn't look him in the eye. "My current contact with you and me is already making some people uncomfortable. If the magic circle is really more intimate, it might cause more misunderstandings."

"Why, wasn't Doctor Shen afraid of nothing just now? Why does he care about other people's opinions now?"

Shen Jiaojiao doesn't care about anything, but Chen Jingzhuo is different.

She knew that Chen Jingzhuo and she were not the same kind of people.

"Comrade Chen, if you're doing this for me, there's no need to make such a sacrifice. I wouldn't be moved."

Chen Jingzhuo said, "I don't have any other choice now. When my dad was with my mom, he arranged everything so well that he cheated on her even when she was pregnant with my brother. Later, my mom died in childbirth without even seeing my brother. Originally, because of this incident, my dad would have changed his ways, but do you know what happened?"

"Your father married another woman."

"That's right. Not long after my mother died, they got married. Soon after, the woman gave birth to a child who was only two or three months younger than my brother. Now you know the truth."

Shen Jiaojiao is a doctor, so of course she understands this aspect.

Chen's father had an affair with another woman when his mother was pregnant. He didn't care about his mother's life or death and had a child with that woman. His mother's death should be more or less related to this incident.

After all, dying in childbirth is not that easy.

Chen Jingzhuo continued, "My father sent my brother to the border when he was still very young. And you've seen my situation too. I've basically been away from home all year round. I don't want to go back to that home either. Now that my grandfather is old and in poor health, my father and that woman are eager to take all of my grandfather's things away."

Shen Jiaojiao understood, no wonder he let her live here first.

"Doctor Shen, I don't want to compete with them for anything in a family like this, but I will never let Grandpa be bullied by them."

"Even so, I don't have a family background, so there will be no benefit for you to marry me, right?" Shen Jiaojiao still knows herself well. Considering Chen Jingzhuo's current situation, she also knows what the outcome will be.

"Don't worry about that."

Shen Jiaojiao was still hesitant, thinking he was joking.

"Comrade Chen, you weren't serious about what you just said, were you? Do you really want to marry me?"

"Yes," Chen Jingzhuo nodded without hesitation, and looked at Shen Jiaojiao with a very firm look.

Shen Jiaojiao also nodded slightly, "Okay, I understand, but if you marry me, we will basically be separated. How can I guarantee that you won't betray me? You are very outstanding, and there are many girls around you who like you, such as Doctor Su. There are also many who cling to you. I can't tolerate any sand in my eyes."

Chen Jingzhuo didn't think this was a problem at all. "If I don't even have this little bit of self-awareness, I don't deserve to say those words in front of you."

"That's not necessarily true. Your parents separated because of this. Aren't you afraid that you'll end up like them?"

"Because I've seen what happened to them, I won't let the same thing happen to me," Chen Jingzhuo said firmly. "Of course, Doctor Shen, I'm a man. I know my responsibilities and my bottom line. I will never allow anyone to destroy my family, let alone take advantage of my wife."

The way Shen Jiaojiao looked at him, he was also quite manly.

This was the Chen Jingzhuo she knew.

But when she thought of the Chen family, each of whom was difficult to deal with, Shen Jiaojiao became worried again.

"What if your family gives me trouble while you're away?"

Chen Jingzhuo smiled, "Doctor Shen, you haven't married me yet, so your thoughts are always negative."

Isn't Shen Jiaojiao thinking about her own future?

Although she has no romantic feelings for Chen Jingzhuo yet, they have been together for some time after all, so she has a relatively good understanding of him.

I feel more at ease with him, but not necessarily with his family.

To allay her concerns, Chen Jingzhuo said, "Don't worry about that group of people. If they come to you personally and insist on causing trouble, you don't have to be nice to them. Just deal with it as needed. If you can't handle it alone, you can ask me to step in."

Shen Jiaojiao didn't expect him to say that. "You really trust me. Aren't you afraid that once you leave, I will join forces with them to deal with you? After all, compared to your current situation, their chances of winning are greater."

"What chance of winning? Isn't it just having more people?" Chen Jingzhuo said, "I don't believe you would do that."

"That's not necessarily true. I just haven't shown it in front of you now. Everyone has what they want," Shen Jiaojiao said deliberately, "Who knows, maybe your stepmother can give me what I want."

Chen Jingzhuo, however, was very confident in her. "If you really change your mind so easily, I think when you first knew about my family situation, you might not have gone to such great lengths to save me. Wouldn't that be much simpler?"

Shen Jiaojiao changed her opinion of him, “In this case, Comrade Chen, if you don’t mind the troubles in my family, I am willing to marry you.”

"Isn't that perfect? ​​You have troubles at home, and I have troubles at home too. Why not let them deal with each other, and you and I can have some free time."

ox.

"Okay, since you and I have no objection, then it's settled." Shen Jiaojiao still felt like she was dreaming. She had always wanted to stay as far away from the Zhao family as possible, but she never expected that they would use such a method.

Chen Jingzhuo said, "Thank you for your hard work. Now that we're getting married, I'll prepare everything you need. But I have to go back, so it's impossible to finish all of this at once. Do you have any objections?"

Shen Jiaojiao shook her head. She was the passive one now, so what opinion could she have?
