Lin Zhenzhu watched the car drive away from her. She saw the woman sitting in his car, her eyes filled with disbelief.
So why is there a woman in Shang Ziming's passenger seat? That doesn't make sense. What went wrong?
"Pearl, what are you looking at? Come in quickly!" Aunt Zhang called from inside the house, puzzled by her niece's sudden desire to go out for some fresh air.
"Okay, Aunt." Lin Zhenzhu lowered her eyes, suppressed the turmoil in her heart, and turned to return to the Zhang family.
"Pearl, your aunt thinks it's true that the merchant has a girlfriend. Why don't you take a look at the other young men?" Sister Zhang wasn't just being unreasonable. It's been circulating in the circle for a while that the merchant and the girl the Gu family found are a couple.

"Yes, yes, that's it! It's best to be open and honest." Aunt Zhang patted her thigh, extremely satisfied.
She sincerely wanted to get married to the merchant, which is why she still intervened and tried to win him over, even though she knew he might already have someone else in mind.
"If I put on that floral jacket again tomorrow, I guarantee that merchant boy will be head over heels for me," Aunt Zhang said expectantly.
