Li Chenyang, who was standing to the side, also noticed something amiss and quietly asked Ye Xiaoxiao, "Did you and your aunt plan this together?"
Ye Xiaoxiao nodded: "Isn't this a coincidence? Master is also looking for a partner for Lin Dong."
"Really? That's great! Shall we go see the master tomorrow and talk about this?"
Li Chenyang realized it had been a while since he'd visited his master. His master was getting old now.
After the wedding banquet, Lin Dong offered to take Li Yanni home.
Li Yanni hesitated for a moment, but under Ye Xiaoxiao's encouraging gaze, she agreed.
On the way home, Ye Xiaoxiao and Li Chenyang walked behind, looking at the two young people walking side by side in front of them, their hearts filled with anticipation.
"Sister-in-law, what about Lin Dong..." Li Yanni asked somewhat awkwardly after returning home.
Ye Xiaoxiao laughed: "What, you have a crush on her?"
"I just feel that he..." Li Yanni blushed, "is different from Du Ming."
It's not just different, it's so much better. That Du Ming has no skills and a terrible temper, and he hasn't even done anything yet.
He was always bossing her around. There were some things she didn't dare say. They'd known each other for six months, but only started dating in the last two months.
Every time Du Ming went out with her, she was the one who paid most of the time.
She felt very uncomfortable, but it didn't reach the point of breaking up with him. It was only when he offended her sister-in-law that she got angry.
"Of course they're different."
Ye Xiaoxiao poured water for Li Yanni while smiling.
"Lin Dong grew up right under our noses. Let me tell you, his dad is your older brother's mentor."
He comes every year; you've seen him quite a few times. Lin Zhan, the one you call Uncle Lin.
"Huh?" Li Yanni's eyes widened in surprise.
"Oh, it's Uncle Lin. Lin Dong is his son?"
Li Yanni was quite surprised, because Lin Zhan was her older brother's mentor, but this Uncle Lin always came to her older brother's house alone.
I've never seen him come here with his son and daughter-in-law, so I've never met Lin Dong.
"That's right, but Lin Dong has never been to our house, so it's normal that you haven't met him."
Li Yanni said thoughtfully, "No wonder I always felt he looked familiar."
"As she spoke, a hint of hesitation appeared on her face, "But sister-in-law, I'm working in Shenzhen now, and he's a teacher here..."
"We'll talk about work later," Ye Xiaoxiao interrupted her. "I'm asking you, what exactly are your feelings for Du Ming?"
Li Yanni was silent for a moment, then said softly, "After what happened when I brought him home for dinner last time, I don't want to contact him anymore."
"What's going on?" Ye Xiaoxiao's heart tightened.
"Du Ming, he..." Li Yanni bit her lip.
"When he called me, he was asking about you. What a jerk! He knows you're my sister-in-law, yet he still... It disgusts me."
Ye Xiaoxiao sneered, "He really is a scumbag. Yanni, some people appear glamorous on the surface, but are filthy at heart. It's a good thing you can see that."
"Okay. I'll call him and make things clear tomorrow. Since we didn't end up together anyway, it's better to cut our losses now than to regret it later."
The next morning, Li Yanni called Du Ming.
On the other end of the phone, Du Ming, upon hearing that they were breaking up, was first in disbelief, then flew into a rage:
"What do you mean? Li Yanni, how could you do this? We've been dating for half a year, and now you're just saying you want to break up?"
Don't be misled by your family. They're a bunch of country bumpkins. What's wrong with them?
From now on, we'll live our own lives...
Du Ming didn't want to break up with Li Yanni; Li Yanni's monthly salary was now close to ten thousand yuan, plus bonuses and such.
"It's not because of anyone else," Li Yanni said calmly, "it's because of your own problem. We're not suitable for each other, so let's leave it at that."
"You dare dump me?" Du Ming said angrily, "Who do you think you are? You're just a country bumpkin..."
Li Yanni hung up the phone immediately and blacklisted Du Ming's number. After doing this, she breathed a sigh of relief, feeling completely relaxed.
Ye Xiaoxiao was preparing lunch in the kitchen when Li Chenyang suddenly returned: "I just went to my master's house."
"You're back so soon?" Ye Xiaoxiao was a little surprised.
"My master's wife said he went fishing." Li Chenyang took off his coat.
"However, I chatted with my teacher's wife for a while, and she said that Lin Dong kept asking about Yan Ni as soon as he got home yesterday."
Ye Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up: "Really?"
"That's right," Li Chenyang said with a smile.
"My teacher's wife said that Lin Dong has never cared about any girl like this before. This morning he asked his mother first thing in the morning if our Yan Ni was still single."
Just then, there was a knock at the door. When they opened it, they were surprised to see Mrs. Su.
"Xiaoxiao," Mrs. Su said, taking Ye Xiaoxiao's hand as soon as she entered the door. "Is Yanni home?"
"She's upstairs." Ye Xiaoxiao quickly ushered Mrs. Su into the house. "Please have a seat."
"Well... I'm getting a little anxious. As you all know, Lin Dong is not young anymore; he's already 28."
It's rare to run into your Yanni. Why didn't I think of that before?
Mrs. Su was overjoyed. Ever since their son went to university, the elderly couple had been urging him to find a girlfriend.
Who knew that this guy would turn 28 and still be unmarried while playing cards? So he asked Liu Guilan to find him a wife quickly.
But unexpectedly, such a coincidence occurred.
Ye Xiaoxiao smiled and called Li Yanni down.
Upon seeing Mrs. Su, Li Yanni realized she had never met her before and didn't know she was Lin Dong's mother. However, her sister-in-law had asked her to come down and greet the guest. "Hello, Auntie!"
