In this era, there are many such pedantic people.

"Do you really think so?"

"Of course." Fu Huaiyi smiled faintly and said, "Although I do hope you can talk to me about a partner, maintaining your spirit and writing excellent works are important matters in your life and are more important to you."

She was really surprised that he thought this way.

Lin Yuyao lowered her head and curled her lips slightly, saying, "Thank you for your understanding."

After chatting with her, I seemed to be less nervous.

The more I talk, the easier it becomes.

Fu Huaiyi asked, "If you consider starting a family in the future, can you consider me first?"

Lin Yuyao looked up at him in surprise and met his burning gaze.

The gaze was too scorching, and she dared not look directly at it.

She lowered her eyes again and said, "But I heard from Brother Yi that your family has arranged a marriage for you. It seems to be Miss Ming."

Fu Huaiyi: “…” Is that kid looking for death?

"Don't listen to his nonsense, it's not true. It was just an elder who mentioned it. I never agreed to it. I told Mingmei very clearly from the beginning."

"Well... she doesn't seem to think so."

Fu Huaiyi took a deep breath and sighed, "Yaoyao, I can't control others. I can only take care of myself. I can only tell you my own thoughts. You are the same, right?"

Oh, that seems to be the case.

For example, Lu Jiangting never believed that everything was over between them. He still firmly believed that he was just angry and that the conflict between them was only temporary.

She also couldn't control Lu Jiangting's thoughts.

"Yes, I understand. Then..." She couldn't keep him hanging forever.

"How old are you?" she asked suddenly.

Fu Huaiyi: “…”

If I suddenly ask you about my age, will you think I’m too old?

He is older than Lu Jiangting, who started school earlier than Lu Jiangting.

"I just turned 24 a few days ago, which makes me one year older than Lu Jiangting... a little more, I think I'm three years older than you? Not that much, right?"

Seeing him trying hard to explain that he was not that big, Lin Yuyao knew that he had misunderstood.

"No, I just want to say that I don't want to talk about it now."

"Well, I understand. It's okay if you don't want to talk now. I'll wait for you. Don't feel too burdened."

Lin Yuyao: “…” He didn’t understand.

"I mean, I'm afraid of delaying you. In my hometown, if you're not married at the age of 25, people will talk about you."

Lin Yuyao thought that it was indeed like that in their hometown. Anyone who was not married at the age of 25 or 26 would be considered to have some kind of mental disorder.

It seems a little better here?

Fu Huaiyi was stunned for a moment and said, "So that's how it is."

He thought about it and came up with a way to relieve her of the psychological burden.

"That's true. I can't wait forever. But here, there are many people who are not married at the age of 25 or 26, so people won't say anything. If you are still not married at the age of 30, then people will say something. How about this, three years? I'll wait for you until you are 27."

Afraid that she would overthink it, he added, "I originally planned to get married when I was 27 or 28."

Without waiting for her to speak, he added, "You and I are both free in these three years. If you find someone you like, go after them and don't worry about me. If I find someone I like, I will tell you, so don't feel burdened."

After hearing what he said, Lin Yuyao swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth.

This is really... very thoughtful.

In this way, the three-year period is dispensable and can be disregarded at any time.

Lin Yuyao heaved a sigh of relief. This way, she no longer had any psychological burden.

"OK."

Obviously there was nothing, she didn't promise him anything, nor did she make any promises to him, but to Fu Huaiyi, it sounded as if she had agreed to date him and he was as happy as ever.

"The food is ready, where is Lin Ping?"

"I asked him to go out shopping. He should be back soon. I'll go check on him."

Fu Huaiyi left quickly and went downstairs to the third floor, where his mood gradually calmed down.

She didn't know when his figure appeared in her eyes.

It’s just... she always feels like there’s something between them, making her want to get closer, but also afraid.

Forget it, don’t think about these things. No matter whether it is fame, fortune, or money, no one else has it as good as yourself.

She should put her mind at ease and focus on writing.

Once the first quarter report comes out, she will negotiate the price of the second book with them.

Fu Huaiyi went downstairs to pick up Lin Ping. Fortunately, he went to pick him up, otherwise he would have been exhausted carrying two large boxes of soda up.

"Why did you buy so much?"

Lin Ping said, "You gave me ten dollars, so I must buy more. Otherwise, I won't feel comfortable with the hard work fee."

Fu Huaiyi: “…”

"Oh, by the way, did you succeed?"

This kid still has the nerve to ask?

"Didn't you say that your parents are helping your sister find a date back home?"

"Yeah, what's wrong?"

"You lied to me, she said no."

Lin Ping: “…” He did not admit it.

"I didn't lie to you. They said they would give my sister a surprise later. My sister just didn't know about it."

Um?

"real?"

Lin Ping's head was nodding like a chicken pecking at rice, "It's absolutely true. I told you secretly because you are my senior. Don't tell my sister, my parents won't let me tell you."

When it comes to things related to Lin Yuyao, he always reacts slowly.

After hearing him say this, he couldn't tell the truth from the false.

But whether it was true or not, he felt that he could not take it lightly.

In a few months, he would have to find another opportunity to tell Yaoyao to focus on her career and not to rush into finding a partner and getting married.

In this way, even if what Lin Ping said was true, I believe Yu Yao would refuse her parents' blind date arrangement for her.

When the two of them came back carrying a large box of soda, Lin Yuyao had packed her food and was ready to eat with her chopsticks.

"Hey, why did you buy so much soda?"

Fu Huaiyi spoke before Lin Ping, "It's hot now, it's okay to drink some. I asked Lin Ping to buy it."

You are not allowed to buy so much.

Lin Yuyao didn't know Lin Ping yet. She rolled her eyes at him and said, "You're greedy."

Lin Ping: “…”

"Sister, it was really my senior who asked me to buy it."

"Okay, okay, sit down and eat."

After dinner, Lin Ping took the initiative to take over the job of washing the pots and dishes, and asked Lin Yuyao to go downstairs and rest quickly as she had to go to work the next day.

She went downstairs with Fu Huaiyi.

"Is it convenient for you to return to the unit now?"

"Yeah, I drove here, it's convenient."

"Lin Ping is ignorant, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you."

Fu Huaiyi said: "No, he is quite good, full of youthful spirit."

My sister complained, "It's still youthful and reckless, that's about right."

"It's all normal. He will be stable in four years."

Well……

I hope so.

Stopping at the door of the fourth floor, Fu Huaiyi asked again: "By the way, I heard that blind dates during the Chinese New Year are popular in your place. If your family arranged a blind date for you... you wouldn't agree, right?"
