“Zhizhi, your father and I were thinking that since you’ve been abroad for the past two years and haven’t been able to find a suitable match, we wanted to look for someone for you in advance. But in the end, it’s up to you. Don’t listen to Nanli’s nonsense.”
After hearing Bai Yarou's words, Nan Zhi subconsciously glanced at Shen Xingmian sitting on the other end of the sofa.
The man exuded a gloomy aura.
He was staring at me with a half-smile.
Nanzhi shuddered.
I finally experienced firsthand the chilling look Shen Xingmian gave to others.
"Zhizhi, what are you looking at?"
Bai Yarou had been keeping an eye on Nan Zhi, so she naturally noticed her unusual behavior.
Nan Zhi quickly looked away and said with a grin:

"Zhizhi, you have to be careful when you live alone. These days, you can't tell if someone is a bad person. You also have to be careful when you look for a partner. Many of those who are too old or too handsome are not good people."
Nanzhi could still hear Nanli's laughter.
He quickly said, "My phone is dead, I have to hang up."
Then the video call ended.
Even without looking at Shen Xingmian, Nan Zhi could feel the oppressive atmosphere.
Her mother is really ruining her daughter's life.
How come Shen Xingmian got both of them?
"Well, my mom was just saying it casually, don't take it to heart."
Shen Xingmian remained silent upon hearing Nan Zhi's words.
I was looking down at the glass of water, which had stopped sloshing and calmed down.
But his heart remained unsettled for a long time.
