Chapter 44 Why can’t I do that?

Chapter 44 Why can’t I do that?

He tried to calm himself down, thinking back to Lin Yaoyu's words, and trying to find the loopholes in them.

The voice was calm: "Does that mean Grandpa Lin hasn't agreed to the marriage with the Gu family yet?"

"Yes, my grandfather said yesterday that he would think about it. How could he agree so quickly?"

Lin Yaoyu looked at his good brother strangely. Why was this guy so curious about his family affairs today? He was too lazy to ask about these things in the past.

Ling Luochuan lowered his head in silence for a few seconds, then raised his head and looked at Lin Yaoyu with serious eyes.

…

Lin Yaoyu felt frightened by being stared at. Why was he being looked at like that? Was he disliked by the man for talking too much?

"Yaoyu, I like Xiuzhu, you will help me, right?"

Lin Yaoyu widened his eyes in shock, his mouth slightly open, wondering if there was something wrong with his ears?

His good brother who doesn't care about worldly things said that he likes his sister? And let me help him?

Good fellow, he treats him as a brother, but his brother wants to be his brother-in-law...

"Ling Luochuan, do you still have any moral conscience? My cousin is still so young, and you are still thinking about her?"

Ling Luochuan said coldly: "Gu Yu is one year older than me, if he can do it, why can't I?"

"You, you..." Lin Yaoyu was choked and speechless.

Indeed, Ling Luochuan is younger than Gu Yu, but...

Bah, bah, bah, bah, they are just two old men, what’s the difference of one year?

"Take me back to the west of the city. I want to meet your grandfather." Ling Luochuan said in a serious tone, with a firm look in his eyes, and a hint of unquestionableness.

After all, he is a comrade-in-arms and friend for many years, and his character is trustworthy. Now he is asked for help for the first time, how can I bear to refuse?

I can only say sorry to Gu Yu silently in my heart.

At the Lin family, in Grandpa Lin’s study, Ling Luochuan sat upright on a chair, a hint of nervousness on his cold face.

With a respectful and sincere tone, he said, "Mr. Lin, I really like Xiuzhu. I hope you won't let her get engaged so soon."

"If you want to get engaged, can you consider me?"

Grandpa Lin was speechless at this time. His granddaughter was so young, but she was already being targeted by several people. It would be terrible if she grew up. It seemed that he really needed to find someone more powerful than the Lin family to protect her.

He had had this idea before, but he always thought that Xiuzhu was still a child, so he wanted to wait for another two years.

It seems that there is no time to delay now. His granddaughter is too beautiful, which is a worry. If she is targeted by a powerful person with evil intentions in the future, he will be worried to death.

If a family has a daughter, she will be pursued by hundreds of families. It is normal for a granddaughter to be beautiful, straightforward and lovely, and for several outstanding sons to pursue her.

Besides, the Gu family and the Ling family are currently the best choices for their Lin family. Neither of them has a political stance and both are in high positions and have power, so they can protect their granddaughter.

Gu Yu and Ling Luochuan are both handsome and capable, and are worthy matches for Xiuzhu.

However, seeing that she is confused and obviously not getting the idea, it seems that I still need to check it myself.

Grandpa Lin's eyes darkened, and the smile on his face faded. He looked at the cold and handsome young man opposite him and said meaningfully: "If the interests of Xiuzhu and the Ling family conflict in the future, what will you do?"

This question hit the nail on the head. Ling Luochuan frowned and was silent for a while, then slowly said, "If there comes a day like that, I will convince my family to transfer Xiuzhu to the Ling family."

"Then Xiuzhu's interests are the interests of the Ling family, and we will do everything we can to protect her."

Grandpa Lin smiled and nodded after hearing this, and said in a gentle tone: "Haha, Xiuzhu is still young, don't worry, okay, go out first."

Ling Luochuan said goodbye politely and walked away nervously. Does this mean that Mr. Lin will not arrange Xiuzhu's marriage so soon?

This means he still has a chance. His cold eyes were filled with a smile and his steps became lighter.

Grandpa Lin looked at the tightly closed door, and the expression on his face became extremely complicated.

In fact, he asked Gu Yu the same question last night. At that time, there was a burning flame in Gu Yu's dark and cold eyes.

His tone was firm, without any hesitation, he said: "I have already decided that Xiuzhu is my wife. We are one. If one day the Gu family cannot tolerate us, then we will sever our ties with the Gu family. We will live together and die together."

He was shocked when he heard the answer and changed his attitude towards Gu Yu. He probably couldn't do this even when he was young.

There is nothing wrong with what Ling Luochuan said. He will try his best, but he is not as crazy as Gu Yu.

Intellectually, he wants Xiuzhu to choose Ling Luochuan, but emotionally he prefers Gu Yu.

One is to try your best, the other is to fight for your life.

Alas, it is difficult for him to choose. He can only give the children time and let Xiuzhu make her own choice. No matter what the result is, he will support his granddaughter.

As for whether his youngest son who lives far away in Yucheng agrees or not, that is not important. The old man is not dead yet, so it is not his turn to take care of Xiuzhu's lifelong affairs.

…

In Yucheng, Lin Zhongjun, who was sitting in the office, sneezed and felt a little puzzled. How could he catch a cold in the middle of summer?

It seems like I need to exercise more tomorrow. I can’t be so weak before I’m even fifty! ! !
