Lin Qinghuan looked at Qin Zhen's joyful smile and the corners of her mouth lifted slightly.

Qin Zhen looked at Lin Qinghuan and asked gently, "Qinghuan, how have you been lately?"

Lin Qinghuan said with a smile, "Good, at least it's much better than before. I have to do less work, and my skin is much whiter."

Lin Qinghuan touched her face happily as she spoke, and continued, "When I find money in the future, I'll buy some skincare products to maintain my skin, and it will definitely be ten times better than Lin Piaoxue's."

“You can find a capable husband, and he can buy you whatever you want,” Qin Zhen said.

“Brother Qin, I’m just a junior high school student. How could a capable man like me be interested in me? Isn’t that just wishful thinking?” Lin Qinghuan said.

"You really don't believe in yourself?" Qin Zhen asked.

“This has nothing to do with confidence. Would you marry a girl like me?” Lin Qinghuan asked in return.

Qin Zhen chuckled softly and said, "Of course I'm willing."

Lin Qinghuan was taken aback for a moment, then said, "Brother Qin, only you wouldn't look down on me. Others aren't as open-minded as you."

Qin Zhen tentatively said, "Lin Qinghuan, how about I marry you?"

Lin Qinghuan was stunned. Qin Zhen wanted to marry her. He was so outstanding, how could he have taken a liking to her?

Lin Qinghuan stood on tiptoe and put her hand on Qin Zhen's forehead, saying, "It's not hot! Why are you talking nonsense?"

Qin Zhen laughed in anger, grabbed Lin Qinghuan's hand, and said, "Lin Qinghuan, is it really that hard for you to believe that I would marry you? Just how insecure are you?"

"It's not that I lack confidence, but I see many young, beautiful girls from well-off families pursuing you. Why would you choose me?" Lin Qinghuan asked, puzzled.

Qin Zhen looked at Lin Qinghuan and asked seriously, "Are you that bad-looking?"

Lin Qinghuan replied, "How could I be ugly? I think I'm quite pretty."

Qin Zhen asked again, "Are you stupid?"

Lin Qinghuan puffed out her chest and said, "I'm not stupid. Although I don't have a photographic memory, my memory is excellent, unlike most people."

Qin Zhen then asked, "Since you're not ugly or stupid, why can't I marry you? Do you look down on me and think I'm not good enough for you?"

Lin Qinghuan hurriedly said, "I am not good enough for you."

"Whether you are good enough for me is up to me, not you. I'm happy that you're willing to marry me," Qin Zhen said.

Lin Qinghuan felt a little smug, but looked at Qin Zhen with confusion and asked, "You've taken a liking to me? How could you like me? I have a terrible reputation?"

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

Lin Qinghuan was stunned by Qin Zhen's words, as if she had been hit by a two million yuan lottery prize. Qin Zhen had taken a liking to her. Did he like her a little, which was why he was willing to marry her?

Thinking of this, Lin Qinghuan blushed and looked at Qin Zhen with a hint of shyness, asking nervously, "Qin Zhen, do you like me even a little bit, which is why you're willing to marry me?"

Qin Zhen sighed and said, "You're only realizing this now? Of course I'm willing to marry you because I like you. I wouldn't compromise myself by marrying a woman I don't like."

Lin Qinghuan asked nervously, "There are many girls prettier than me, why did you choose me?"

Qin Zhen stared straight at Lin Qinghuan and said, "Qinghuan, you don't need a reason to like someone."

Lin Qinghuan lowered her head and said, "I'm only sixteen years old. I won't turn seventeen until the New Year."

Qin Zhen held Lin Qinghuan's hand and said, "It's only been a little over a year, I can wait."

"What if your family looks down on me because I'm not well-educated and they don't approve of us being together?" Lin Qinghuan asked worriedly.

"Don't worry, my family is very open-minded," Qin Zhen said.

Qin Zhen is a very good person, and she has a good impression of him, even liking him deep down. Otherwise, she wouldn't have taken the initiative to hold his hand. Lin Qinghuan lowered her head and thought for a long time before facing her true feelings.

She fell in love with Qin Zhen, but felt that she and Qin Zhen were from two different worlds, so she suppressed her feelings.

Lin Qinghuan looked at Qin Zhen holding her hand, and the corners of her lips slightly lifted.

Looking at Lin Qinghuan's delicate face, flushed with happiness, Qin Zhen felt a surge of joy and said sincerely, "Qinghuan, as long as you are willing to marry me, I will definitely treat you well and I will not let anyone bully you."

Lin Qinghuan glanced at Qin Zhen, then lowered her head and said shyly, "We can date first, and get married when we turn eighteen."

Qin Zhen excitedly grasped Lin Qinghuan's hand and asked with surprise, "Qinghuan, would you like to be my girlfriend?"

Lin Qinghuan blushed even more as she looked at Qin Zhen, who was both surprised and delighted. She had never been in a relationship before, focusing solely on her studies. She was also worried about ending up like her parents, getting married and then divorced. She had never wanted to be in a relationship and had never met a man who moved her heart. She never imagined that she would meet Qin Zhen after being reborn in the 1980s.

Qin Zhen looked at Lin Qinghuan and asked again and again, "Qinghuan, answer me quickly, are you willing to be my girlfriend?"

Lin Qinghuan nodded, blushing.

Qin Zhen was overjoyed to hear the satisfactory reply.

Lin Qinghuan asked, "Qin Zhen, aren't you afraid people will laugh at you for marrying a country girl?"

"I live my own life and don't need to care about other people's opinions," Qin Zhen said.

Lin Qinghuan's smile deepened, and her determination to study and go to university grew stronger.

"Qin Zhen, can you help me find books for grades 10 through 12? I'll study for the college entrance exam on my own."

"Qinghuan, is it because of me that you want to go to university?" Qin Zhen asked, moved.

"I've wanted to go to university for a long time, and after being with you, my determination to do so has only grown stronger," Lin Qinghuan said with a smile.

“Qinghuan, you don’t have to go to university. I have enough money for you to spend, and no one will dare to laugh at you.”

Qin Zhen loves Lin Qinghuan, so he accepts everything about her. He has the ability to provide Lin Qinghuan with a life of luxury, and Lin Qinghuan getting into university is just icing on the cake.

Lin Qinghuan smiled and said, "I don't want to sit around waiting to die. Besides, I've been studying medical books on my own, and my medical skills are pretty good now. I'm preparing to take the medical school entrance exam. I hope that one day I can become a good doctor and make you proud of me."

A hint of surprise flashed in Qin Zhen's deep eyes; he hadn't expected Lin Qinghuan to have such lofty ambitions.

"Qinghuan, I believe in you. You will definitely become a good doctor," Qin Zhen said admiringly.

Lin Qinghuan smiled at Qin Zhen and said, "Thank you for believing in me."

Lin Piaoxue gripped the door frame, looking at Lin Qinghuan and Qin Zhen. Hearing their cheerful laughter from time to time, her face turned ashen, and the veins on her hands bulged from gripping the door frame so tightly.

In what way does she not compare to Lin Qinghuan? Why does Qin Zhen look down on her? Is Qin Zhen blind?

Lin Piaoxue's heart was filled with resentment and jealousy.
