"What the hell?" Xing Fei was startled and instinctively replied, "How is this possible?!"
"Why not?" Xing Minggao retorted, "Yang Yu is a good kid, and you said he's a gentle person. To be honest, Dad is quite satisfied."
“But I don’t like him.” Xing Fei pursed her lips.
Seeing how well his daughter and Yang Yu got along, Xing Minggao had assumed they were mutually in love. His daughter's words surprised him: "You don't like him?"
"Yes." Xing Fei nodded: "He is indeed very good, very gentle to me, and has helped me a lot. But you don't have to like someone just because they are good. Liking someone is about feeling. I don't have romantic feelings for him. I only see him as a senior, an older brother, and a friend."
Xing Minggao remained silent for a while.
He had previously considered that it might not be a bad thing if his daughter got together with Yang Yu. He and Yang Yu had been like brothers for so many years, and if his daughter were to get married one day, it would be better for the Yang family than for her to marry into a family he didn't trust.
Moreover, Yang Yu is an impeccable person. He's young, has a good temper, no bad habits, and most importantly, he's humble and eager to learn.
However, my daughter doesn't like it, so there's nothing I can do.
Xing Minggao looked at the girl opposite him: "If you don't like it, then we should make it clear. Don't leave Xiaoyu waiting for you like an idiot."
“Okay.” Xing Fei nodded. She had never thought about what would happen between her and Yang Yu before. It was only today, when her father mentioned it, that she learned that the Yang family had taken a liking to her.
“In a few days, the three of us will go to Grandma Yang’s birthday banquet. No matter what, Uncle Yang helped us so much when Dad was in trouble, we should thank them.”
"Of course."
……………
"Uncle Xing is trying to set you up with President Yang's son?" Ji Zhinan asked, somewhat surprised.
Shelley put aside the simple tools she was using to trim the flowers and helped her sit down on a chair.
She was almost seven months pregnant and had become much heavier.
Xing Fei sat in the chair opposite her, nodding with a bitter expression: "Uncle Yang's son is also from University A, two years older than me, a senior. I had never met him before because I don't go to school often. I only met him by chance when I went to school a while ago, and then I found out that he was Uncle Yang's son."
Shelley poured Ji Zhinan a glass of milk, took a sip, and Ji Zhinan nodded: "When I met with President Yang before, he mentioned that he has a hardworking son."
"Uncle Xing wants you to be with him?"
"Mm." Xing Fei nodded, holding a cup in her hand: "My dad said that Yang Yu is a good person and hardworking, and it would be good to be with him."
"But you still refused, didn't you?"
"..."
She stared in astonishment at Ji Zhinan, who had clearly seen everything even though she had only heard a few words from her.
"Nan Nan, why are you so smart? It only makes me look stupid."
Ji Zhinan smiled and asked, "What are your plans?"
"?"
When will you be with Lin Que?
"!!!"
Seeing her utterly shocked expression, Ji Zhinan smiled and said, "If you like her, go for it."
"Forget it," Xing Fei said dejectedly. "Lin Que is just a penny-pincher."
"???"
"He's straighter than steel!!!" Xing Fei was numb at the thought of Lin Que's quintessential straight-man moments.
Lin Que was the most straightforward straight man she had ever met, bar none.
