The couple found their son had fallen asleep.
The daughter also went back to her bedroom to rest.
The couple who sat down were not sleepy. After exchanging a glance, they both gave a wry smile.
“I think not only my eldest brother and sister-in-law want Jingyu to marry into the family, but Dad probably has the same idea deep down.”
Juliet said softly, "Even if you know it's impossible, you can't help but hope for it. Plus, Qibo is guarding Xiangdu and by Jingyu's side, so it's not surprising that he has this kind of thought."
However, after hearing Shiyu's words, he may have completely given up hope and dared not have any more expectations.
“It’s normal for Dad, my older brother and sister-in-law to have this idea.”
Peng Fengyi sighed inwardly, "If Jingyu were an ordinary girl, or a simple girl from a noble family, perhaps this would be possible."
Willing to disregard everything and give up everything for love, just to be with the one you love.
Jingyu is not that kind of person. She is intelligent and capable, sensible and talented, and she also has the support of her sect.
A girl like her would use everything to measure things except feelings.
I will absolutely not prioritize emotions.
If it were for the sake of family or dignity, she would definitely give up feelings that she considered 'insignificant'.
Anyone who truly understands her knows that from the day the engagement was officially called off, there will never be a day when Bo'er and she will get back together.
I believe Dad, my eldest brother, and my sister-in-law didn't notice this, which is why they had some expectations.
"They are too arrogant and take their own and the Peng family's status too seriously."
Juliet expressed her opinion, "In their hearts, Jingyu is no match for them, no match for Qibo, otherwise things wouldn't have turned out this way."
"Perhaps only outsiders like us can see it clearly."
Peng Fengyi shook his head helplessly, "We can't interfere in Bo'er's private affairs, let them be."
"Even if you interfere, I won't meddle."
Juliet Chu frankly stated, "We have a daughter to care for, and we also have to take care of Ming'er. We're too busy with our own things."
“We have already separated our families, and the eldest brother’s family matters will be handled by him and his wife.”
"You're right."
Julie was about to end their casual conversation.
Just as I stood up, I suddenly remembered something. "Last time I went back to my parents' home, my aunt talked to me for a long time."
The conversation was all about Jingyu, and at the time I thought it was because the two families had been engaged and then broken off the engagement.
Then I thought about it again and realized that my aunt seemed to be asking if Jingyu's family had found her another boyfriend.
Peng Fengyi paused for a moment, then asked, "You mean... the disciples of your Zhu family want to marry this girl, Jingyu?"
"Yes, that seems to be the idea."
Zhu Lishan thought for a moment and nodded, "She also said that if there's a chance, Shiyu can take Jingyu back to play so that the Zhu family's children can get to know her."
I guess that's what she meant, otherwise why would my aunt say something like that?
"A young man from the Zhu family!"
Peng Fengyi recalled the several outstanding sons of the Zhu family, two of whom were in no way inferior to his eldest nephew.
Under the guidance of the elders in the Zhu family, they have already become some of the most outstanding talents.
If one of them falls for Jingyu, they might actually get married.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but say again, "Fate is a strange thing. Jingyu has severed her marriage ties with the Peng family and may end up in the Zhu family."
"It was just casual conversation. Jingyu's matter is not that simple or easy."
"Shiyu said that she is back this time to oversee the construction of the capital's infrastructure and will need to stay in the capital for a long time. If the Zhu family boy is interested in this, it would be a good opportunity to get in touch with her."
“There must be quite a few people eyeing her, and young people who want to take this opportunity to get close to her will definitely not miss it.”
...
There's nothing going on or planned for the time being.
Lin Jingyu went back to school first.
I made an agreement with the teachers when I came to take the exam in the first half of the year.
If her exam results are good, she will be allowed to graduate this year.
"Jingyu! Jingyu!"
A familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar voice came from behind, so Lin Jingyu, who was walking in the National University of Singapore, had no choice but to stop.
Turning around, she saw Zeng Miaozhu walking quickly towards her.
The other person smiled broadly and said, "I knew I hadn't misjudged you. I didn't expect you to actually come back to the capital to attend school."
"I'm here to collect my graduation certificate."
Lin Jingyu waved the things in her hand and replied with a smile, "I didn't expect to see you at school again. If I remember correctly, didn't you graduate?"
"I will stay at the school and take a teaching position."
Zeng Miaozhu explained with a smile, "I am now a freshman counselor. Over the past few years, I have become accustomed to being on campus and no longer want to go outside."
"Sure, just do the job you like."
Lin Jingyu nodded and asked as they walked, "Where are you going now?"
"I was planning to go home."
As they walked, Zeng Miaozhu teased her, "Now that I've finally caught you, if I don't have a good chat with you, you might not even recognize me next time we meet."
"No, I should be in Beijing all year."
Lin Jingyu responded, "You can contact me whenever you're free, but whether I'm free or not is hard to say."
"Are you kidding?"
Zeng Miaozhu looked surprised. "Aren't you staying in Xiangdu? Aren't you planning to go back to Xiangdu?"
"I won't go back for now."
Lin Jingyu smiled and said, "If there's anything that needs to be dealt with, I'll take the time to go and handle it. Now that someone's keeping an eye on things for me, I can take a break and relax a bit."
