Lin Qinghuan sighed deeply and said, "I don't know either. Lin Piaoxue has always been sweet-talking and cunning since she was a child. Everyone likes her. She secretly encourages her suitors to bully me and has her best friends cause me trouble every few days. She herself puts on the face of a good older sister. I have suffered countless losses at her hands since I was a child. Recently, I have figured it out and decided to fight back and stop being a coward."

Qin Zhen said with disdain, "Most of the villagers in Baiyun Village are very simple and honest, so Lin Piaoxue can only fool them. But in the eyes of outsiders, she is just a clown."

Lin Qinghuan looked at Qin Zhen, hesitating to speak.

Seeing that Lin Qinghuan seemed to have something difficult to say, Qin Zhen asked in confusion, "Qinghuan, just say what you want to say, don't hide it."

Lin Qinghuan said, "Qin Zhen, Lin Piaoxue is interested in your family background and wants to marry you. Be careful and don't let her get entangled with you."

A hint of surprise appeared on Qin Zhen's face as he looked at Lin Qinghuan and asked, "Qinghuan, you don't want Lin Piaoxue to marry me?"

“You’re such a good person, Lin Piaoxue doesn’t deserve you,” Lin Qinghuan said.

Qin Zhen asked with great interest, "Qinghuan, what kind of girl do you think is worthy of me?"

Lin Qinghuan said frankly, "Only a gentle, kind, and well-educated girl is worthy of you."

Qin Zhen smiled and said, "Qing Huan, if I like someone, even if she's a shrew, I'll still like her."

Lin Qinghuan blushed, remembering how fierce she always was in front of Qin Zhen.

"Qinghuan, what are your plans for the future?" Qin Zhen asked.

Lin Qinghuan said softly, "I want to be a doctor in the future and save lives."

Qin Zhen said admiringly, "You have ambition. I believe you will succeed."

Lin Qinghuan turned to look at Qin Zhen and said, "If I said this to outsiders, they would definitely laugh at me. Only you believe me."

"Qinghuan, I trust my judgment of people," Qin Zhen said.

Qin Zhen witnessed Lin Qinghuan memorize a medical book after reading it only twice. Such an intelligent person will surely do well in anything they set their mind to.

A faint smile appeared on Lin Qinghuan's lips; it felt so good to be trusted.

Qin Zhen and Lin Qinghuan chatted and laughed all the way. When they were almost home, Lin Qinghuan stopped and looked at Qin Zhen, saying, "Qin Zhen, my house is just ahead. I can go home by myself."

"Okay, I'll take you here. Remember to apply the medicine when you get home," Qin Zhen said.

Lin Qinghuan chuckled softly, "Okay, I will definitely apply the medicine. Be careful on your way."

Qin Zhen replied, "Okay."

Lin Qinghuan reached her front door and turned around to see Qin Zhen still standing there watching her. A warm feeling welled up in her heart, and she couldn't help but smile. She waved to Qin Zhen and then walked into the yard.

As soon as Lin Qinghuan entered the courtyard, she saw her father and Lin Qing sitting in the yard enjoying the cool air. When he saw Lin Qinghuan return, he asked, "Qinghuan, why are you so late coming home?"

Lin Qinghuan looked at her father and said bluntly, "I'm going to the mountain to pick wild ginseng to buy toilet paper, so that every time I have my period, I don't have to ask my mother for money to buy it. Not only does she grumble and complain, but she also makes excuses and refuses to give me the money."

Lin's father's face flushed red, and he went back into the house, his face full of embarrassment.

Lin Qinghuan's lips curled slightly, revealing a mocking smile.

Lin Feng said sarcastically, "To say something like that, you really have no shame at all."

"What's the point of having a face? What good is a face? Can it feed you? Or can it be sold for money?" Lin Qinghuan retorted.

Lin Feng scoffed and said, "Face certainly can't put food on the table, nor can it be sold for money, but if you have absolutely no shame, be careful no one will want you and you won't be able to get married."

Lin Qinghuan glanced at Lin Feng and said, "It doesn't matter if no one wants me, so I don't run into a man like you who has no ability and no self-awareness. He acts like he's the boss and I'm second-in-command all day long. Otherwise, I would have to spend my days crying and living a miserable life."

Lin Feng belittled Lin Qinghuan to the point of worthlessness, which made him so angry that he jumped up and down and shouted, "Lin Qinghuan, do you believe I'll beat you to death?"

Lin Qinghuan said disdainfully, "I don't believe it."

Lin Feng stood up, ready to attack Lin Qinghuan, but Lin Ming stopped him.

Lin Feng looked at Lin Ming with displeasure and asked, "Third brother, I'm going to beat up Lin Qinghuan, why are you stopping me?"

Lin Ming asked, "Second Brother, can you beat her?"

Lin Feng was stunned. He couldn't beat Lin Qinghuan; he could only be beaten.

Lin Ming only let go of Lin Feng's hand after he saw that Lin Feng had calmed down.

Lin Qinghuan gave Lin Feng a disdainful look, thinking he was a coward who bullied the weak.
