After dinner, Lin Qinghuan chatted with Grandma Wei and the others for a while before going upstairs to read.
Grandma Wei watched Lin Qinghuan's retreating figure as she went upstairs and said with deep emotion, "Qinghuan studies very hard, and I believe she will definitely get into her dream university."
Wei's father smiled calmly: "Many people work hard, but how many of them get into university? Not everyone who works hard will get what they want."
Grandma Wei glared at Father Wei, annoyed. "Can't you just wish others well?"
Mr. Wei looked at Mrs. Wei helplessly, "Mom, I'm not a god, I can't make other people's wishes come true."
Grandma Wei said with a righteous expression, "You can't make other people's wishes come true, and you can't discourage others either. Regardless of whether Qinghuan can get into university, at least she tried her best, which is commendable."
The old lady is getting on in years, and we can't let her get angry. Worried that continuing the topic would upset Grandma Wei, Mr. Wei quickly chimed in, "Mom, you're right. Qinghuan is a good girl with aspirations and lofty ideals. Whether she gets into university or not, she deserves our praise."
Grandma Wei burst out laughing when she saw that Mr. Wei looked at her as if he was right about everything.
Looking at the Wei family enjoying themselves, Lin Piaoxue suddenly missed her own family.
Time flew by, and Lin Qinghuan and Lin Piaoxue stayed at the Wei family's house for a week.
That day, Lin Qinghuan was reading in her room when she heard a knock on the door.
Lin Qinghuan put down the book in her hand, opened the door, and saw Aunt Fang, the Wei family's nanny, standing at the door of the room.
"Aunt Fang, is there something you need?" Lin Qinghuan asked.
Aunt Fang smiled and said, "Qinghuan, Qin Zhen is here."
Lin Qinghuan's face lit up with joy, and she walked briskly downstairs.
When Qin Zhen saw Lin Qinghuan come downstairs, he immediately stood up and smiled at her.
Lin Qing walked up to Qin Zhen with a smile, "Brother Qin Zhen, what brings you here today?"
Qin Zhen looked at Lin Qinghuan with a smile in her eyes. Seeing that Lin Qinghuan's face did not show any dissatisfaction or resentment because she had left her at the Wei family for so long, she carefully relaxed.
Lin Qinghuan sat down next to Qin Zhen.
Qin Zhen held Lin Qinghuan's hand and looked at her apologetically, "Qinghuan, I had something to take care of, so I kept putting off coming to see you until now."
"I thought you had forgotten me."
Lin Qinghuan's tone carried a hint of resentment.
Qin Zhen sighed, "How could that be?"
Lin Qinghuan also hoped that Qin Zhen was delayed by something, and that it wasn't because his parents disapproved of his relationship with her that it had dragged on until now.
Regardless of the reason, Lin Qinghuan still had some reservations.
"If I go home, wouldn't you be unable to see me at the Wei family's house? It seems that I am dispensable to you."
Lin Qinghuan's expression carried a hint of displeasure.
"Qinghuan, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting," Qin Zhen said apologetically.
"Fine, I won't hold it against you." Lin Qinghuan didn't want to keep harping on Qin Zhen.
A smile appeared on Qin Zhen's face as she sincerely said, "Qinghuan, you are such a kind and understanding girl."
Lin Qinghuan glanced at Qin Zhen and said, "Don't flatter me. I won't be so easy to talk to next time."
Lin Qinghuan is giving Qin Zhen another chance. If Qin Zhen continues to treat her this way, then she needs to consider whether she wants to continue the relationship with Qin Zhen.
Qin Zhen said solemnly, "Qinghuan, if I can't come to see you next time, I will definitely tell you in advance."
Qin Zhen knew that he had acted without thinking and had not considered Lin Qinghuan's feelings, and he must be more careful in the future.
Lin Qinghuan smiled slightly at Qin Zhen: "I hope you keep your word."
"I will definitely keep my word," Qin Zhen said confidently.
Lin Qinghuan, Grandma Wei, and Wei's mother entered the living room. When Grandma Wei saw Qin Zhen, her eyes flickered.
When Lin Qinghuan saw Grandma Wei returning from her walk, she immediately stood up with a smile and greeted her, "Grandma, Auntie, you're back from your walk."
"Yes! You're back." Grandma Wei said, looking at Qin Zhen, and teased, "Qin Zhen, what brings you to see Qing Huan today? I thought you had forgotten about Qing Huan."
Qin Zhen looked slightly embarrassed and smiled at Grandma Wei, explaining, "I've been quite busy lately and haven't been able to find the time, which is why I've only come to see Qing Huan now."
Grandma Wei smiled at Qin Zhen, "Oh, I see! If you don't have time to visit Qinghuan next time, you can call home. Qinghuan won't be so eager for you to come see her."
Lin Qinghuan was completely dumbfounded after hearing what Grandma Wei said!
She didn't eagerly await Qin Zhen's visit; all her thoughts were focused on her books, leaving her no time to think about Qin Zhen.
Love is beautiful, but reality is harsh. A good life requires effort to shorten the distance and make the future even better.
Qin Zhen smiled and looked at Lin Qinghuan. Lin Qinghuan smiled awkwardly and then lowered her head to avoid looking at Qin Zhen.
Mother Wei looked at Qin Zhen with a kind expression and said gently, "Qin Zhen, it's rare that you have time to come today, so please spend more time with Qing Huan and have a simple meal before you leave."
"Okay!" Qin Zhen said.
Qin Zhen also wanted to spend more time with Lin Qinghuan, and Wei's mother's suggestion suited his wishes perfectly.
Qin Zhen didn't see Wei Xiao at home, and asked with a smile, "Why don't I see Wei Xiao? Did he go back to the army?"
Mother Wei smiled and nodded, saying softly, "Wei Xiao's unit is quite busy. He'll be going back to his unit as soon as his vacation is over."
“Brother Wei Xiao is a hero who protects our country. He’s so busy because it’s for the safety of the nation,” Lin Qinghuan said.
Qin Zhen smiled and chimed in, "Qing Huan is right. Wei Xiao is a soldier we should respect."
Grandma Wei and Wei's mother smiled with relief, feeling that Wei Xiao's hardships and exhaustion were all worthwhile.
Lin Piaoxue smiled slightly at Qin Zhen, "Qin Zhen, why didn't you bring your cousin with you today?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Qinghuan's expression turned somewhat unpleasant.
Qin Zhen looked at Lin Qinghuan guiltily, and seeing Lin Qinghuan's gloomy face, he glanced at Lin Piaoxue with displeasure. This woman was really something, always bringing up the most sensitive topics. Wasn't she just making Lin Qinghuan uncomfortable?
Mother Wei looked at Lin Piaoxue with suspicion, "Is Qin Zhen very close to his cousin?"
Lin Piaoxue: "Yes! Qin Zhen's parents are trying to match him with his cousin, hoping they will get married."
Grandma Wei's face showed a hint of displeasure. "Have you told your parents that you're dating Qinghuan?"
Lin Qinghuan was a junior she liked, and the granddaughter of her friend. She didn't want Lin Qinghuan to suffer any injustice.
Lin Qinghuan didn't ask Qin Zhen if his parents agreed to their relationship, because she wanted to wait for Qin Zhen to tell her on his own initiative.
Qin Zhen said, "I've already told my parents."
Grandma Wei: "Oh! You've already told your parents? Do they approve of your relationship?"
Lin Qinghuan looked at Qin Zhen, eager to know if his parents had agreed to their relationship.
Lin Piaoxue and Wei's mother also looked at Qin Zhen, eager to know if Qin Zhen's parents had agreed to Qin Zhen and Lin Qinghuan dating.
