Su He was completely confused after hearing this. "What do you mean? So did you get the answer or not?"

Lin Jingyan smiled and explained, "I didn't ask directly. I just told him that you and your family are a little worried about him. He's not young anymore and knows what he should do. As elders, we don't need to interfere in everything. We'll only help him when he needs it."

Su He listened in silence for a moment, then sighed, "I understand the reasoning, but I'm just afraid that he might be bottling things up and feeling uncomfortable."

Linzi has been smart since he was little. You know my mom; when he was little, her favorite character was Mu Tou. He's only a few years younger than Mu Tou, so he inevitably gets overlooked. That's why he tends to keep things to himself, and I'm afraid he'll hurt himself by bottling them up.”

Lin Jingyan smiled, "Don't worry, I've already talked to him. Lin Zi knows how you treat him, and he'll speak up when the time is right."

Su He nodded. "That's the only way."

...

After hearing Lin Jingyan's words, Su He stopped worrying about whether Su Lin had someone he liked. However, even though she didn't ask, someone else did.

That day, Su Miao came to visit her during her holiday. She had received her salary and planned to keep her promise to buy her clothes.

Su He was not about to give in, and besides, she didn't lack clothes; she usually wore police uniforms the most.

However, Su Miao was determined to buy it for her, probably because she had received too many gifts from her over the years and felt embarrassed, so she was eager to give back in kind.

Seeing this, Su He thought for a moment and asked her to buy her a scarf. It looked thick and warm, perfect for wearing when it was cold.

Su Miao was finally satisfied and paid the money without even blinking.

After shopping, the two sisters were very happy. On the way back, Su Miao talked about her work and asked about Su Lin.

"What's wrong with Fourth Brother lately? He seems to have something on his mind."

Su Lin was the fourth among the boys of this generation in the Su family, so Su Miao always called him that.

Su He was surprised to hear this, not expecting that Su Lin had noticed it too. Considering that she and Su Lin usually spent a lot of time together, she asked curiously, "Do you know if your fourth brother has someone he likes?"

"What? Fourth Brother has someone he likes?"

Su Miao was surprised to hear this, "When did this happen?"

Su He shook her head. "I don't know if it's true or not, I'm just guessing, but he won't admit it. I haven't spent much time with him, so I don't know who he likes."

Su Miao listened in silence, then asked with some speculation, "Could it be her?"

"Is there a suspect?" Su He hurriedly asked, "Who is it?"

However, Su Miao shook her head and denied it, saying, "No, impossible, I might be wrong."

"Who is it?" Su He was incredibly curious.

Finally, Su Miao hesitated and said, "I don't know if my guess is right or wrong. When I was in high school in the county town, I saw my fourth brother come to the school. I thought he was coming to see me, but I saw him talking to one of our school's Chinese teachers instead."

I found it strange at the time, and the way my fourth brother spoke to her was very different. He had a smile on his face, but how should I put it? It wasn't the usual smile. I can't quite put my finger on it.

Later I asked my fourth brother, and he said he was going to take care of something. I saw him once after that, but the two of them separated quickly, so I didn't ask any more questions.

Now that you've mentioned it, I think it might be possible.

Su He fell silent after hearing this, so the person Su Lin likes might be his high school teacher?

What kind of development is this?
