Lin Yan picked up a piece of fruit and was putting it into his mouth.
"What is it?"
There was a languid quality to his voice.
"Sit up straight, I'm going to talk to you about something!"
Mrs. Lin was so angry that she slapped her son on the back, looking down on his lazy appearance.
"You're not young anymore, it's time to get married. We didn't push you when you were in the mountains, and now you've come down. Even though you've practiced Taoism, there's no saying you can't get married."
How can a mother not worry about her child's marriage?
"No, I didn't say I wouldn't get married. It's a matter of fate. You can't force it."
Lin Yan put down the fork in his hand and answered his mother's questions seriously.
"I'm afraid you're not just urging me to get married today? Just say whatever you want to say."
"Which girl did you take a fancy to during your trip?"
Lin Yan picked up the water cup at hand and was about to drink it.
As soon as I put the drink into my mouth, I was shocked by my mother's words and spit it out, and hurriedly took out a tissue to wipe my mouth.
"The Su family."
"If it's not mom, whose family are you talking about?" Lin Yan suspected that he had heard it wrong and asked again in disbelief.
"The Su family, the young lady who just returned from the Su family. Although she's a little young, I think she's pretty. Haven't you two known each other for a long time? You've been getting pretty close lately. You're quite interested in her, aren't you?"
Mrs. Lin looked as if it was a matter of course and didn't think there was anything wrong.
Lin Yan looked horrified.
"When did I ever become interested in her?! Mom, stop trying to match us up! We're just good friends! Besides, she's so young, let's not bring disaster to this beautiful young woman of our country."
Lin Yan neither has the heart nor the courage to do so.
"This kind of affection is developed through getting along. I'm just thinking about you. Now, if a girl is wanted by a hundred families, this good girl will be taken by others first. Then you will have the right to cry."
Mrs. Lin still thought that her son was just being stubborn and didn't dare to admit it.
"Mom! I swear to my ancestors that I really don't have such thoughts!" Lin Yan wanted to cry but had no tears. That was his boss. Didn't he want to live anymore?
Han Zong emerged from the jade pendant at some point.
"You still have some self-awareness. That little girl is definitely not worthy of you."
Lin Yan felt as if he was stabbed in the chest. He wanted to tell others that it was a different feeling.
Mrs. Lin looked at her son's expression, which looked like he was about to cry, and felt a little confused.
"Really not thinking of that?"
"No, no, absolutely not! We can be friends, we can be siblings, but we can never be husband and wife!" Lin Yan has a very clear understanding of his own position.
Mrs. Lin looked a little discouraged.
"That's great. The other girl from the Su family is not bad either. I heard she broke off her engagement with the Lu family. I've met that girl too. Although she's not the Su family's biological daughter, we don't have those prejudices against each other due to family background."
Suddenly she remembered that the Su family had a daughter. Her eyes lit up and she spoke excitedly to her son.
"No way! Mom, let's not even think about the Su family's daughter! I know the two sisters in the Su family are good girls. But they're really not suitable for your son."
If Lin Yan really dares to have any intentions towards Su Miaomiao, Sister Xuan will be the first one to not let him go.
"My son is not bad either."
"Since you've said that, forget it."
She felt a little disappointed. Why was this child so stubborn?
Could it be that after staying in the mountains for so long, he really became indifferent to worldly desires?
Lin Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Only after his mother went upstairs did he dare to talk to General Han openly.
"General Han, could you please stop hurting me like this?"
"Isn't everything I said true? Su Xuanxuan is obviously a powerful girl. With your current strength, you are not worthy of her."
General Han made a particularly pertinent evaluation.
"It's not about whether I'm worthy or not? I just want to be a little brother. I don't have that intention."
Lin Yan tried hard to explain.
"Hahahahahaha..." General Han laughed and went back into the jade pendant, leaving Lin Yan sitting alone in the living room with his hair disheveled.
Su Xuanxuan had just returned home and hadn't even sat down when Lu Qiang called him out.
Although I don't want to pay attention to it, this matter is not over yet and the show has to go on.
"Xuanxuan, you seem to be very busy recently?" Lu Qiang asked tentatively. He always felt that something was wrong, especially the girl's attitude, which was hot and cold.
He hadn't gotten reengaged yet, but he always felt that something was going to happen and felt uneasy.
“Yes, I’m quite busy.”
Su Xuanxuan's answer was rather perfunctory.
"I heard that you went to Nanshi with Lin Yan some time ago?" Lu Qiang's tone was a little tentative, and he was a little afraid of being intercepted by Lin Yan.
Su Xuanxuan nodded in acknowledgement: "Yes, is there anything wrong?"
"No, it's just you and Lin Yan..."
Lu Qiang tried again.
"My friend, I just arrived in the capital, and he's my only friend. Let's go to South City together. Is there any problem? You guys can study or work, and Lin Yan happens to be free."
There was nothing wrong with what Su Xuanxuan said.
"I'm just too worried about you. I wish we could get engaged sooner."
Lu Qiang spoke cautiously, hinting that Su Xuanxuan should get engaged as soon as possible.
"Not yet. It's only been a short time. If we get engaged so soon, people will definitely say bad things about me behind my back. Plus, my sister hasn't recovered yet and she's definitely not going to be able to handle it."
Su Xuanxuan shook his head and once again immersed himself in the role.
Lu Qiang didn't want to bring up the topic again, so he took a phone call and left.
Su Xuanxuan was about to leave when someone suddenly appeared and blocked his way.
"Make way."
She spoke coldly.
But the boy in front of him dragged him into a small alley.
It’s not that Su Xuanxuan couldn’t break free, but he wanted to see what this person was going to do.
"Lu Xu?"
Su Xuanxuan pretended to be surprised.
"I didn't expect you still remembered me." Lu Xu felt a little happy when he heard the girl in front of him calling his name.
"Brother Lu Qiang's younger brother, how could I not know him? By the way, aren't you in the same school as my brother? Why don't you go to class?" Su Xuanxuan asked "confusedly".
Lu Xu bit his lip, feeling a little embarrassed and not wanting to tell the truth.
"I came out for something, and I just happened to see you and my brother."
He also didn't want to admit that he skipped classes, for fear that this would make him lose the favor of the girl he liked.
Although there is no good impression to lose.
"Oh, I see."
Su Xuanxuan replied coldly.
"What's the matter with my brother asking you out?" Lu Xu asked nervously, sweat oozing from his palms.
Su Xuanxuan recalled what his younger brother had said to him that time and looked at the somewhat shy boy in front of him.
"Your brother asked me to discuss an engagement. I will be your sister-in-law in the future."
