I don't need to rely on women's connections to climb the ladder; I rely on my own abilities!
When I marry, I want someone who shares my interests and can peacefully spend the rest of my life with me!
Zhou's mother could let her son have his way in other matters, but she was very stubborn about this one thing.
"I disagree! So what if they've severed ties? When you mention her, who doesn't immediately think of her father?"
Son, this will ruin our reputation! Do you want people to talk about our family behind our backs?
The things her father did were no small matter! Even now, there are still people who hate him to the core!
With your looks and qualifications, what kind of woman couldn't you find? Why are you so stubborn and fixated on her?
I admit, she's beautiful, intelligent, and has a respectable job, but her troubled family background and bad reputation are a major drawback! She'll only become a huge burden!
Zhou Lin was also discouraged when faced with parents who couldn't be reasoned with.
He slumped back, looking exhausted. "Mom and Dad, I've chosen her. If you really don't want to, then I won't get married."
"Don't bother me anymore after this!"
"Oh dear! What nonsense are you talking about? How can you not get married?"
"Exactly! What will you do when you're old and have no kids if you don't get married?"
In response, Zhou Lin shrugged and said he didn't care, "I never wanted to get married in the first place!"
I've finally found someone I want to spend my life with, and now you're all against it. What can I do?
"If I had to marry someone I didn't like, I'd rather be killed!"
Seeing that he didn't seem to be joking, Zhou's father tugged at his wife, who was about to speak, to stop her from nagging any longer.
"Son, you've had a long day, get some rest. We can talk about this later!"
Let's postpone it for as long as possible. Maybe our son is just acting on impulse and will stop liking it once he calms down.
Unfortunately, despite her beautiful plan, she didn't understand that her son was a stubborn mule; once he made up his mind, he would never change it.
Sure enough, Zhou Lin waved his hand and stood up. "No need to think about it anymore. It's either her, or I won't get married."
If you agree to our marriage, I promise you won't have to live together, so neither of you will have to see each other or feel uncomfortable!
You gave me life and raised me, and I will take care of you in the future. It's good that I don't need to get along with my daughter-in-law.
Upon hearing this, Zhou's mother exploded. Ignoring Zhou's father's attempts to stop her, she jumped up and demanded, "What did you say? We're not living together?"
What kind of talk is that? Does marrying a wife mean forgetting your parents? In our family, we absolutely do not accept wives who are not filial to their parents-in-law!
Zhou Lin looked up at the sky speechlessly, "Mom and Dad, you gave birth to me, not her! She didn't drink a drop of water from our house, nor did she eat a single grain of rice from our house. The reason she's associated with you is because of me!"
Why should I expect others to be filial? The one who should be filial to you is me, your son!
"I can take care of things, why do you need someone else? You don't even like them, it's just a waste of time and energy for both of you to be unhappy!"
Zhou's mother was so angry that she was panting heavily. Pointing at Zhou Lin, she scolded, "I told you we shouldn't let the child study too much, or he'll become stupid!"
Zhou's father wearily rubbed the throbbing veins on his face. "Your son's grades are so good, it would be foolish not to let him study!"
He's always been headstrong, so let him be! Since the relationship is already severed, it just means his reputation will suffer a bit!
Besides, he still has his master, right? It can't be any different!
He finally understood that his son was determined. If he tried to stop him, the son would simply move out to a separate room with his wife!
Zhou's mother was still indignant and wanted to say more, but Zhou's father pulled her back to the room.
"Do you still want this son? If you do, then don't say anything!"
Do you not know how capable your own son is? He doesn't rely on his family, so no one can stop him from causing trouble!
