On the day of the blind date, the heir of a wealthy family pulled me to get the certificate.

"We can't keep sponging off your brother and sister-in-law, can we?"

“I’m different. Xiaoya and I have known each other for a long time and are kindred spirits. I’m successful in my career, young and promising, and I love Xiaoya very much. If Xiaoya marries me, she will definitely be very happy.”

Zhan Yue said coolly, "Dr. Lin is successful in his career and young and promising, but unfortunately Xiaoya doesn't love you. She just doesn't love you."

"Love cannot be forced. Love is love, and not loving is not loving. I advise Dr. Lin to be sensible and let go of his feelings for Xiaoya as soon as possible, and stop bothering her."

"I heard that Dr. Lin also has a woman who loves you very much. Dr. Lin, you should cherish the person in front of you. Xiaoya does not belong to you, and never will. I advise you to give up on that idea."

Lin Jian's face darkened.

He met Xiaoya first, but now he has Yuehua by his side. The worst part is that he slept with Yuehua last night. Even if nothing happened in the end, the fact remains that they slept together for one night.

He Yuehua is pressing him to take responsibility.

Xiaoya also knew about this, which was what made Lin Jian uneasy.

"Xiaoya doesn't belong to me, so does she belong to you, Zhan Yue? How will you support Xiaoya? You don't even have a proper job."

Who said I don't have a formal job?

Zhan Yue retorted, "Who told you I don't have a job?"

Lin Jian was speechless. No one had told him that Zhan Yue was unemployed; it was just his own guess.

Because Zhan Yue is too free, even more free than him, who runs his own clinic and is his own boss.

If Zhan Yue had a job, which company would allow him to be so free, letting him go out and buy this and that on weekdays?

"All you're doing is collecting rent for your sister-in-law, is that even a job?"

Remembering that Zhan Yue had said he would help his sister-in-law collect rent, Lin Jian used this to attack Zhan Yue.

Zhan Yue chuckled, "Don't you know that rent collection is lucrative? If I help my sister-in-law collect rent as part of my job, it's not shameful at all. On the contrary, it will make a lot of people envious and jealous."

"Many people envy and resent landlords in Dongguan. I don't want to collect all the rent in one day. I collect from a few houses each day, and finish by the end of the month. That's better. Otherwise, if I finish in one day, what am I going to do for the remaining 29 days?"

Lin Jian's face was as black as charcoal.

He worked hard for so many years to escape poverty, and finally managed to buy a house and a car in Dongguan, and also saved some money.

Zhan Yue, on the other hand, easily collects rent, and the rent he receives in a month may be more than he earns in a year.

“Anyway, I have a job and an income. Even if I'm just helping my sister-in-law collect rent, she won't let me work for free. She'll pay me a salary. Didn't you see me buying houses in Wansheng Garden like they were cabbages?”

"I paid in full, so I don't have to pay a mortgage every month. Now I'm renovating, and the materials I use are both environmentally friendly and of good quality. It just costs a little more, but it doesn't matter, I can afford it anyway."

“I travel in luxury cars, and I don’t think my job of collecting rent for my sister-in-law is shameful. If Xiaoya marries me, I can make her live like a queen or princess.”

“I’ll take care of everything, so she can just be carefree.”

"Dr. Lin, you say you love Xiaoya very much. If Xiaoya marries you, can you ensure she lives a carefree life? Can you give her the life of a queen or princess?"

Zhan Yue's question left Dr. Lin speechless. He continued, "I'm afraid that if you marry Xiaoya, your relatives back home will need to be hospitalized or go to higher-level hospitals for treatment. You'll have to ask Xiaoya to arrange it for your relatives unconditionally."

"It's true that you like Xiaoya, but it's also true that you value Xiaoya's family background. You should say that you are more satisfied with Xiaoya's family background. Her background and her family's connections can help you a lot."

"Is this why you've never accepted that young nurse who admires you, but instead keep pursuing Xiaoya relentlessly?"

Dr. Lin's expression changed, and he denied it, saying, "I never thought of using Xiaoya for anything. If my relatives back home need help, we're all relatives. Xiaoya can help if she wants to, and I won't force her to help if she doesn't want to."

"I like Xiaoya as a person, not her family background."

Zhan Yue chuckled, "If Xiaoya had the same family background as your little nurse, would you like her and pester her relentlessly?"

After a moment of silence, Dr. Lin said, "What if? There are no ifs."

"So, you still value Xiaoya's family background more."

Dr. Lin retorted, "It's as if you don't value Xiaoya's background. She comes from a family of doctors, and everyone envies her family's connections in the medical field and wants to get in touch with her."

Everyone gets sick, and when you get sick you need to see a doctor. If you have the opportunity to make friends with doctors, I don't think anyone would miss it.

"I don't care whether Xiaoya's family background is good or not, as long as she has good character."

Zhan Yue said, "Although my family can't be called rich, we can still make a living. We have doctor friends, so we don't need to rely on Xiaoya's medical connections."

"I simply like Xiaoya as a person; it was love at first sight."

The Zhan family knows quite a few doctors, including two who are considered legendary doctors.

Dr. Lin sneered twice and said sarcastically, "You're just bragging. Bragging can fool those infatuated women. They're captivated by your face and believe what you say unconditionally."

"But Xiaoya isn't a lovesick fool; she's not love-struck. You can't fool her with your bragging. Zhan, I advise you to give up on that idea; Xiaoya will never fall in love with you."

"Then let's have a fair competition and see who wins the heart of the beauty in the end."

Zhan Yue was too lazy to continue the verbal battle. He said, "If Dr. Lin can win Xiaoya's heart and get her to marry you, then I will let go and offer my sincerest blessings. If Xiaoya chooses me, Dr. Lin should stay away from Xiaoya from now on."

"That's right. Can you still pursue Xiaoya now? You don't have to take responsibility for your little nurse."

Dr. Lin: "...What nonsense are you talking about?"

“What responsibility? She and I are just boss and worker. She likes me, that’s her business. I never promised her anything.”

Xiaoya wouldn't tell Zhan about that matter, so Dr. Lin assumed that Zhan Yue mistakenly thought he had made some promise to Yuehua.

He vehemently denied it.

Little did he know that Zhan Yue knew everything about his rival in love.

After Zhan Yue finished his glass of warm water and put it down, he picked up the keys to his electric scooter. "It's late, so I won't continue talking to Dr. Lin."

He took a couple of steps and then turned back, bending down to say to Dr. Lin, "Last night, you were drunk and had Miss He call Xiaoya. She happened to be watching a movie with me and overheard the conversation."

Dr. Lin: "..."
