Upon hearing this, Madam Helan smiled and said, "This child is already twenty years old, there's nothing wrong with getting married. But whose family is her fiancé? Is he also from the capital? I didn't hear her mention it when we last met. Is there some problem in their relationship? If it's something that our Helan family can handle, then please step in and don't let anyone from our Helan family suffer any injustice."
Helan Zhi said, "Not really. I think the two of them are quite loving. I ran into her at dinner last time and found out she was already married. Later, I had dinner with the couple alone and felt that their relationship was very good. It's just that Xiaoqian's husband's family is quite powerful."
Old Madam Helan was somewhat displeased. "Can't you finish what you're saying at once?"
To whet people's appetite.
Helan Zhi smiled slightly, "Her husband's family is none other than the Second Young Master Long, whom Elder Long has been grooming."
"Long Yunting!"
Although Madam Helan rarely went out, she was still very familiar with the outstanding young men of these prominent families in the capital.
Especially for prominent families like the Long family, which have connections within the ministry, Old Madam Helan pays particular attention.
Even if you've never met Long Yunting, you've heard about him.
Most people have high praise for this young member of the Long family.
Therefore, in terms of character, there is nothing to criticize.
When things were going well, countless people wanted to be his matchmaker.
Two years ago, that accident changed his life.
Only then did everyone realize the danger that his position posed to him.
The special battle in the south is not over yet.
But Long Yunting was no longer able to participate.
Upon returning to the capital, he awoke, but was crippled.
His decision was also a major blow to the authorities.
She has experienced so much at such a young age, and was even seriously injured and fell into a coma when she was nineteen.
The twists and turns before and after would have been unbearable for most people.
This Long Yunting is a man of strong will!
If he hadn't been unable to walk, his future achievements would surely have surpassed those of Elder Long.
What a pity.
Thinking of this, Old Madam Helan frowned and looked at Helan Zhi, "So, Xiaoqian hasn't been wronged?"
No matter how good Long Yunting is, he can't give Sheng Qian happiness in this state.
“I don’t think Xiaoqian has those kinds of thoughts. If she hadn’t accepted him, she wouldn’t still be with him.”
Helan Zhi did not think Sheng Qian was that kind of person.
He Lanjin said, "But I heard rumors that their marriage was not voluntary. At the time of the marriage, Long Yunting was still in a coma, and the woman was forced into it."
Madam Helan frowned deeply. "Didn't Xiaoqian marry willingly?"
"Rumor has it that it wasn't voluntary. Instead, it was bought in the countryside on the advice of a Taoist priest to bring good luck to Long Yunting. Since it's a rumor, there's probably some truth to it." He Lanjin, who was out walking, had indeed heard some of the real truth.
He Lanzhi also frowned. Since he had recognized Sheng Qian as his goddaughter, how could he not feel anything at all?
He Lanzhi quite liked Sheng Qian.
"That child...why didn't you say anything?" Old Madam Helan didn't know what to say, and felt a pang of heartache for Sheng Qian.
“My dad just recognized someone, how can he tell you everything?” He Lanjin shook his head helplessly and said to He Lanzhi, “Dad, I’m going to the resort to see my mom this afternoon.”
“I’ll go with you, and then your mother can come back and meet Sheng Qian.”
He Lanzhi also hoped that his wife would feel better after seeing Sheng Qian.
"Are you planning to hold a family banquet?" He Lanjin was taken aback.
"I only plan to call my close friends and family over," Helan Zhi said.
This is also a way of announcing it to the outside world.
Since the intention is to bring his wife back, he can't bring too many people, as that would affect her mood.
He Lanjin nodded. "It just so happens that I also want to meet this god-sister."

Sheng Qian received a call from He Lanzhi, who told her about having dinner at He Lan's house the next day and also asked her to invite Long Yunting along.
Sheng Qian relayed the message to Long Yunting. At that moment, they were cleaning up some flowers and plants in that courtyard, planning to move their belongings over after a little more work.
When I asked Sheng Qian last time if she wanted to come and stay with me, Sheng Qian was actually tempted.
Although she and Long Yunting had been married for over a year, they still had very few opportunities to be close to each other.
They've never even had a proper kiss.
They did lie together, but that can't really be considered intimacy.
At the time, everything was handled properly and nothing happened.
Therefore, the two have not gotten any serious closeness to this day.
Sheng Qian has now made up her mind about this man, and she will not let the distance between them remain unchanged; that would be too unreasonable.
That's when I thought about living together.
"I'll go out this afternoon to prepare the gifts for the delivery," Long Yunting said.
“Okay,” Sheng Qian put her phone away. “Let’s go now. You don’t need to cook lunch.”
Long Yunting nodded, wondering whether he should make other preparations.
They were heading to the Helan family's residence; they couldn't let the other party look down on Sheng Qian.
