Lin Qinghuan looked up and met Qin Zhen's deep eyes, which held a light that drew her in.

Lin Piaoxue watched Lin Qinghuan and Qin Zhen gazing deeply into each other's eyes, her eyes turning red with anger. Qin Zhen liked Lin Qinghuan, how could he like that wretched girl?

She's a hundred times better than Lin Qinghuan. Is Qin Zhen blind?

Lin Piaoxue glared at Lin Qinghuan indignantly, wishing she could push Lin Qinghuan far away and take her place.

Looking at Lin Piaoxue's face, which was twisted with anger and looked ferocious, Lin's mother felt a bit complicated. This was the daughter she had loved and placed high hopes on for many years. Her lack of composure was truly disappointing.

Lin Qinghuan suppressed her anger and resentment and said, "Qinghuan, you've been thinking about Brother Qin all day long, and finally, Brother Qin has arrived."

Lin Qinghuan smiled and said, "Qin Zhen is the best person in the world to me. If I don't think about him all the time, why would I think about you? You don't need me to worry about you. After all, there are too many people who think about you day and night. I won't make a difference."

Qin Zhen asked with a smile, "Qing Huan, is there something you want to ask me?"

Lin Qinghuan said frankly, "Of course, you're so good to me, who else would I miss if not you?"

A cold glint flashed in Lin Piaoxue's eyes as she said, "Brother Qin, Qinghuan keeps talking about you, wanting you to introduce her to a man from the city."

Qin Zhen frowned, feeling a little annoyed. He looked at Lin Qinghuan and asked, "Is what Lin Piaoxue said true?"

A faint blush rose on Lin Qinghuan's face as she lowered her head and said, "I most want to marry a good man like you, but I know myself and that I am not good enough for you. I just want you to introduce me to a man of good character, and I will be content with a life of plenty."

Qin Zhen looked at Lin Qinghuan and asked, "Do you feel you're not good enough for me?"

Lin Qinghuan nodded and said, "How could I possibly be worthy of you? You are rich, handsome, and of good character. You are a rare find among men. I am just a country girl. I dare not presume to be your match."

Qin Zhen's brows relaxed, and he said happily, "Matching someone of equal social standing is important, but if I meet a girl I'm attracted to, I will still pursue her and marry her."

Lin Qinghuan looked at Qin Zhen, who was willing to give up everything for love.

Is Qin Zhen a love-obsessed person?

Lin Qinghuan clicked her tongue repeatedly at this thought. Appearances can be deceiving, but Qin Zhen looked just like him! Had she misjudged him?

"Qin Zhen, I don't mean to be prejudiced by social class, but there are big differences in lifestyle between the poor and the rich. I think the family conditions of both sides should not be too different, which will reduce a lot of friction."

Qin Zhen looked at Lin Qinghuan with a stern expression and asked, "Lin Qinghuan, do you have some prejudice against rich people?"

Lin Qinghuan hurriedly said, "I didn't, I absolutely didn't. Rich people create wealth for the country and are exceptionally capable. They are people that ordinary people like us can't even touch. I admire them as endlessly as a surging river. But the biggest hope of ordinary people like us is to have enough to eat and wear, to be able to buy a new set of clothes for each season, and to save some money. That would make us very happy."

"You really have a good sense of self-awareness," Qin Zhen said.

“Of course, I’m not like some people who are overly ambitious and just daydream.” Lin Qinghuan said, glancing at Lin Piaoxue, “People should know themselves and not be ambitious but have little ability.”

Lin Piaoxue was so angry at Lin Qinghuan's veiled sarcasm that her face turned pale. She said, "Lin Qinghuan, you..."

Lin Qing stared at Lin Piaoxue with innocent big eyes and asked, "Sister, why do you look so pale? Are you holding it in because you need to use the restroom?"

Lin Piaoxue's face flushed red in an instant. Lin Qinghuan, that brat, is she even a woman? How could she say such uncouth things in front of outsiders?

Lin Qinghuan exclaimed, "Mom, didn't you see that my sister needs to poop? Hurry up and help her to the outhouse, otherwise what if she poops in her pants? She'll be so ashamed that she won't be able to find you a rich husband, and even Li Jian next door won't want her."

Lin's mother watched as Lin Piaoxue's face turned pale and then red, and she didn't know if Lin Piaoxue really needed to use the restroom.

Lin's mother thought of the worst-case scenario: what if Lin Piaoxue really needed to defecate? So she said, "Piaoxue, let me help you to the outhouse."

Qin Zhen couldn't help but chuckle. It seemed that Lin Qinghuan had really found a way to deal with her family.

Lin Qinghuan looked at Lin Feng standing behind her mother and urged anxiously, "Second brother, what are you standing there for? You're strong, why don't you hurry up and carry your sister to the outhouse? Do you want to be a rich man's brother-in-law? If you don't want to be a rich man's brother-in-law, I want to be a rich man's sister-in-law."

Lin Feng came to Lin Piaoxue, bent down and picked her up without saying a word, and hurriedly ran towards the outhouse.

Lin's mother stood there, stunned. Should she follow them, or not?

Lin Qing and Lin Ming watched Lin Feng carrying Lin Piaoxue at breakneck speed, unable to bear the sight, and silently turned their heads away.

Lin's father pointed at Lin Qinghuan with a helpless expression and said, "Qinghuan, you...you! I don't even know what to say about you."

Lin Qing smiled broadly and said, "Dad, aren't you especially touched? Touched that you have such an understanding and kind daughter? The Lin family's ancestral graves must be emitting auspicious smoke!"

Looking at Lin Qinghuan's smug expression, Lin's father was both angry and amused. Only Lin Qinghuan could do bad things so openly and honestly.

Lin Qinghuan didn't want to keep talking to Qin Zhen under the Lin family's nose, especially since there was also the clingy Lin Piaoxue in the family.

Lin Qinghuan took Qin Zhen's hand and said, "Qin Zhen, let's go outside and talk."

Lin Qinghuan's suggestion was exactly what Qin Zhen wanted to do. He missed Lin Qinghuan, which was why he traveled all the way from the city to Baiyun Village, just to spend some time alone with her and talk to her.

"Okay," Qin Zhen said with a smile.

Lin Qinghuan and Qin Zhen stopped under a peach tree. Lin Qinghuan looked at Qin Zhen and asked with a smile, "Qin Zhen, am I really amazing now?"

Qin Zhen chuckled softly, "Qing Huan has become very capable; she can protect herself now."

"I think I was incredibly stupid before, constantly backing down for the sake of so-called family ties, almost turning into a ninja turtle, so pathetic," Lin Qinghuan said. "Now I've figured it out. Since they don't care about family ties, why should I act like a fool and try to please them? Now I'm ready to defy everyone, my parents, and whoever makes me unhappy, I'll make them unhappy."

Qin Zhen looked at Lin Qinghuan and said earnestly, "Qinghuan, there are still more good people in the world. Don't be so cynical."

“I know, just like you, you are the best person in my heart,” Lin Qinghuan said.

"Am I really that good?" Qin Zhen asked with a smile.

Lin Qinghuan nodded and said, "Of course, you're the best."

Qin Zhen laughed heartily upon hearing this. As long as he had a good image in Lin Qinghuan's heart, it would be much easier for him to pursue her, given his proximity to her.
