Chapter 55: Will occupy the Peach Blossom Palace

As soon as the three of them left the door, Lu Jiaying said, "Don't pay attention to them. Men are all self-righteous. Especially Mo Jizong, who can be considered young and promising, has always been self-centered."

"Thank you for speaking for me just now." Su Jinshi said.

"I couldn't help it either. They are so annoying." Lu Jiaying pursed her lips. "Besides, before Mo Jizong came to the capital, our relationship was always very good, and there has never been a situation like this. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Du Jinze and Kang Youwen were instructed by Mo Jizong to make us all unhappy."

"I'll talk to them later and ask them to stop listening to Mo Jizong." Lu Jiaying rolled her eyes. "How can they be so persistent? It's too ugly."

Su Jinshi chuckled, "But, do you two really want to go to the bathroom?"

"I came out to get some fresh air and talk to you." Lu Jiaying said, "There's no chance in there."

"Me too..." Xiaomai grinned, "We thought the same thing."

Lu Jiaying laughed and said, "Okay, I've finished what I want to say, you guys take your time."

Knowing that Su Jinshi had a better relationship with Xiaomai and that they probably had something else to talk about, Lu Jiaying took the initiative to leave first.

Xiaomai asked Su Jinshi in a low voice, "The boyfriend you are talking about is not your cyber boyfriend, right?"

"It's him." Su Jinshi nodded decisively and firmly.

Xiaomai whispered, "I saw it before, saying that playing this kind of game will occupy your peach blossom palace. That is, after your palace is occupied, it will be difficult for you to find a boyfriend in real life."

Su Jinshi opened the game to look at Shen Shilang, and said with a smile: "I didn't plan to look for him. It's good to spend the rest of my life with Shen Shilang."

"But..." Su Jinshi sighed and became a little depressed, "I will grow old, but he won't change. I can only be glad that he can't see me."

Xiaomai's mouth opened into an "O" shape in surprise, but she still chose to respect Su Jinshi's idea.

Anyway, there's nothing good about men.

Fortunately, Su Jinshi came out for the party this time, and nothing unexpected happened on Shen Shilang's side.

In the blink of an eye, it was New Year's Eve.

Su Jinshi had already returned to his parents' home and made dumplings with his mother during the day.

In the meantime, Su's mother couldn't help but nag her for not having a boyfriend or something like that.

"You said our home is in the capital, but you don't live at home and have to rent a house outside." Su's mother kept talking, "If you work, you want to live closer to the company, that's fine. You don't have to go out for your job, so it's better to live at home. Your father and I can take care of you."

"I'm taking good care of myself outside." Su Jinshi pinched a white and plump dumpling.

"What's good about that? Don't I know you? You usually order takeout, which is not nutritious at all. The vegetables they take out are not cleaned properly, and the oil they use is not good. They are heavy in oil, salt, and flavorings. It's strange that you can get nutrition from eating them."

"I don't always order takeout." Su Jinshi said patiently, "I usually eat nutritious food. And I moved out so that I can write quietly. There are too many noises at home, and I can't concentrate, which is not good for writing."

"You always have excuses. Anyway, you are old enough now, and we won't listen to you." Mother Su said, and changed the subject. "By the way, the daughter of our Donghu Wu family, who is four years older than you, said she wants to introduce you to a guy. I think he is quite good. Although the boy is not from the capital, his family is not bad, and his parents are not a burden."

Su's mother didn't care about Su Jinshi's reaction and continued to talk: "That kid has a good job. He works in the court as a prosecutor. But he went home for the New Year. When he comes back, have you made an appointment to meet him?"

"Mom, I don't want to think about these things now." Su Jinshi said while making dumplings, "I'm still young, so I should focus on my career."

"Putting your career first won't interfere with your love life. Besides, you're a freelancer, so don't you have the freedom to decide your own schedule? You don't have as much free time as people who work." Su's mother said.

"Time freedom is just what others think. When I was writing the script, I stayed up late every day and locked myself in the study without going out. And I really hate it when someone suddenly sends me a message when I'm writing. My train of thought is interrupted. If I don't reply in time, the other party will be unhappy." Su Jinshi sighed and said, "Mom, I just want to concentrate on work now. Working and making money is more reliable than any man."

"I just don't have to go out to work, but in terms of hard work, I work just as hard as others." Su Jinshi said helplessly, "Don't always think that I have nothing to do every day."

"I didn't say that..." Su's mother muttered, "But it's always okay to meet once... I'm not asking you to agree immediately after meeting once, at least take a look first, maybe you just happen to like it. You also said that your job doesn't require you to go out, how can you meet people if you don't go out? How can you have the chance to fall in love if you don't meet people?"

"Mom!" Su Jinshi was helpless and powerless. "Love is not a must. It is not an option in life. Besides, I am fine being alone. Why do I have to find someone to fall in love with? Don't you think there are enough things in life that make me angry?"

"How can this be the same..."

Please...collect 6...9...books...!

"How is this different? Unless I find someone who is willing and whom I can't let go even if the other person makes me angry, I won't take the initiative to get angry." After Su Jinshi said this, Shen Shilang's face appeared unconsciously in his mind.

If it was Shen Shilang, she wouldn't care even if he made her angry.

However, given Shen Shilang's personality, he wouldn't easily make her angry.

If she couldn't be in the same time and space with Shen Shilang, she would be fine with being Plato for the rest of her life.

"Okay, okay, it's Chinese New Year, and the child rarely comes home, so don't talk about this." Father Su advised, "Jinshi is right, she is still young, there is no need to be so anxious. It's Chinese New Year, let's talk about something happy."

"Is this still an unhappy thing?" Su's mother said dissatisfiedly.

"I don't know whether you are happy or not, but I know our daughter is unhappy." Father Su said, "Besides, young people nowadays tend to marry late, and many don't marry at all. We should just let the child take care of things naturally. Our Jinshi is already doing very well. She is outstanding at work and earns six figures a month at a young age. How many young people who have just graduated can do this? If it weren't for her hard work, how could she have achieved such success?"

"I agree with Jinshi's idea. It's a good thing to work hard in your career while you're still young."

"Dad, thank you for understanding me." Su Jinshi said gratefully.
