Shen Jingyan was also taken aback when she saw who had come.
It was Qin Yuehe!
She was walking towards the Xu family's house, so it must have been an accident that she ran into the two of them on the way.
Qin Yuehe looked much thinner than the last time we met, but her shrewd and capable spirit was still there.
Looking at Xu Yatong's protruding belly, she opened her mouth in surprise: "Tongtong..."
Xu Yatong showed no mercy, her face instantly darkening as she pulled Shen Jingyan up and said:
"Let's go that way."

Qin Yuehe quickly caught up: "Wait... Tongtong, let me say something."
Xu Yatong turned her head away from her and said coldly, "There's nothing to say. Don't even think about messing with my child."
Qin Yuehe's expression was not good.
Because of the uproar at the wedding, now everyone in the capital knows that Zhou Zhengqing is a playboy.
After her marriage to Xu Yatong fell through, Qin Yuehe lowered her standards repeatedly, trying to find another marriage for her good-for-nothing son. However, even girls from humble backgrounds avoided her at the mere mention of Zhou Zhengqing's name.
The Zhou family's reputation was completely ruined, and Old Man Qin was also implicated.
This wasn't the first time Qin Yuehe had visited the Xu family to try and win back Xu Yatong, but the Xu family's attitude remained firm.
"Um, Jingya, can I talk to you alone for a bit?"
Qin Yuehe's words surprised Shen Jingyan greatly.
What could Qin Yuehe possibly have to say to her?

Xu Yatong gripped Shen Jingyan's hand even tighter: "What do you want with Jingya?"
Qin Yuehe smiled awkwardly: "It's nothing, I just asked her about something..."
Chen Jingyan was completely confused.
Could it be that Qin Yuehe had no other choice, and couldn't bear to see Zhou Zhengqing remain a bachelor, so she lowered her requirements to the minimum, hoping to bring Shen Yuqin into the Zhou family?
Aside from that, Shen Jingyan couldn't think of anything else Qin Yuehe could say to her.
"Tongtong, why don't you go back first, and I'll come find you later?"
Xu Yatong glanced coldly at Qin Yuehe and released Shen Jingyan's hand.
After Xu Yatong walked away, Qin Yuehe looked at Shen Jingyan and sighed repeatedly.
"Jingya, look at you, so young and already so accomplished. I wish I had a daughter like you."
Chen Jingyan said in a cold but polite tone, "Aunt Qin, please just say what you have to say."
Qin Yuehe rubbed her hands together hesitantly.
"Hmm... I heard that Comrade Gu didn't get recommended for graduate school?"
Shen Jingyan looked at her with considerable surprise.
Why did she suddenly become interested in Gu Zhiyun's affairs?
"Hehe, Jingya, it's like this. My husband, Lao Zhou, is the chief executive officer of the China Academy of Space Technology. He's an old friend of Professor Jiang from your school. He knows a little about what's going on at the school. He also thinks it's a great pity that Professor Jiang rejected Xiao Gu's application for postgraduate recommendation. He has always admired Xiao Gu very much."
Shen Jingyan gleaned some key information from these words.
She knew a little about the relationship between Zhou Lianjie and Jiang Shu from Fang Ru. When Old Man Xu was hospitalized and the School of Aeronautics and Astronautics was without a leader, it was Zhou Lianjie who recommended Jiang Shu to teach at the School of Aeronautics and Astronautics.
She hadn't figured out Qin Yuehe's purpose in talking to her alone until now, but she understood it somewhat.
“Jingya, my husband Zhou is also willing to say a few words for Xiao Gu. To put it bluntly, they are in the same research field, and I don’t want to see a gem go to waste. However… Professor Jiang is a rather stubborn person, and even if I plead on his behalf, I might not be able to persuade him. It will take some effort.”
Shen Jingyan now has a more thorough understanding of Qin Yuehe's purpose.

"Aunt Qin, do you want me to put in a good word for Tongtong with my parents and grandpa so that she can come back to your house? Then, Chief Zhou can help Yun-ge regain his eligibility for postgraduate recommendation?"
Qin Yuehe nodded hurriedly, thinking to herself that this child was incredibly intelligent and quick to understand.
"I know you're young but have a strong will, and your family listens to you. I really have no other choice but to ask you for help. For Xiao Gu's future, please consider it?"
Judging from her tone, it seemed as if Gu Zhiyun's future would be ruined if Shen Jingyan didn't agree.
He sneered inwardly.
Her man's future was never in Zhou Lianjie's hands.
"Aunt Qin, there's no need to think about it."
Shen Jingyan resolutely refused, saying, "I have no ability to change the will of any of my family members with just a few words, and Brother Yun wouldn't dare to trouble Chief Zhou to plead on my behalf."
This deal sounds like a great deal, but Shen Jingyan would never do anything that would harm others for her own man.
Given Gu Zhiyun's upright character, he would never accept the guaranteed admission spot that Zhou Lianjie had pleaded for.

“Jingya, think about it again. I’m doing this not only for Zhengqing and Tongtong, but also for you and Xiao Gu…”
Chen Jingyan politely took a few steps back and said, "Aunt Qin, I have something to attend to at home, so please excuse me."
She strode away.
Back at the Xu family home, as soon as she entered, Xu Yatong anxiously asked, "What did that woman say to you?"
Shen Jingyan simply repeated what she had just said to Xu Yatong, explaining that there was no need to hide such a thing from her.
"She really knows how to come up with ideas," Xu Yatong said sarcastically after hearing this.
