She explained everything to Senior Lin, saying that this was between the two of them and had nothing to do with anyone else.

No sooner had he finished speaking than Senior Lin turned around and went to find Zhan Yue.

Although she didn't mean to cause trouble for Zhan Yue, Zeng Xiaoya felt sorry for him because he had been dragged into this for no reason.

Zhan Yue said, "That's not really a problem. It's just that I've been bothering you too much lately with buying materials for the renovation, and every time we go out, Dr. Lin happens to see us."

"It's normal for him to misunderstand that you're with me. He didn't lay a hand on me, he just said some unpleasant things."

"It's okay, I won't take it to heart. I'm the kind of person who can handle anything. Even if the sky falls, I can use it as a blanket."

"Dr. Lin came to see me for two reasons: first, he felt threatened by me, and second, he lacked confidence in himself."

"Xiaoya, do you really have no feelings for Dr. Lin? He's quite a good match for you."

Zhan Yue asked tentatively.

Even after testing her countless times and knowing that Zeng Xiaoya really didn't like Dr. Lin, he still couldn't help but test her one more time.

“I think your second uncle and aunt both like him quite a bit. You’ve known each other for a long time, and you all know each other well.”

"I heard that Dr. Lin's clinic is doing quite well. You two are both studying medicine, so you have common topics to discuss."

After a moment of silence, Zeng Xiaoya said, "Lin is suitable to be a friend, but not a husband. Our views are different. If we force ourselves to be together, we won't be happy; we'll only keep arguing."

Because their perspectives on things and their interactions with people are different.

"Besides, I've always treated him as a senior student, and I haven't had any other thoughts. The only things we can talk about are medical issues; we don't really have anything in common in terms of life."

After a pause, Zeng Xiaoya told the truth: "I rejected Senior Lin not only because I don't love him, but also because a big reason why he likes me is because he values ​​my family background."

"He's been tainted by impurities. He's indecisive in handling relationships, and he plays hard to get with Miss He. I don't like men like that; they're not decisive enough."

"If he didn't like Miss He, he could have just rejected her and told her to find someone else, but he didn't. He wanted to pursue me while enjoying Miss He's care and affection for him."

“Ms. He goes to his house almost every day to help him clean the house and do housework. She also has the best understanding with him at the clinic. Both in public and in private, the two of them are a better match.”

“My second uncle really likes Senior Lin. After all, he has been guiding him for two years, so there is a bit of a mentor-student relationship between them. Senior Lin is very outstanding in medicine.”

"My second aunt has always been lukewarm towards Senior Lin, not particularly fond of him, but she really likes you. Even though my older brother has only met you once or twice, he has praised you several times and thinks you are quite good."

Zhan Yue laughed, "Brother Zeng has good taste."

If his future brother-in-law has good taste, did he pass his test?

Zeng Xiaoya also laughed, "You were already very outstanding. None of the men in your Zhan family are bad. Grandma Zhan is so good at training people, she has raised you all to be so excellent."

"It's such a pity that she didn't go and run a school."

Zhan Yue said, "She had done it before, but as she got older, she felt she couldn't keep up. After my eldest brother took over the Zhan Group, Grandma gradually sold some of her properties or handed them over to her daughters-in-law and granddaughters-in-law to manage."

The old lady owns many private properties.

The largest coffee shop Haitong went to when she introduced her friend and Sunan was owned by an old lady.

Even Zhan Yue and his grandsons weren't very clear about their grandmother's private business empire.

The old lady said that she was keeping her businesses for her daughters-in-law and granddaughters-in-law to practice and earn some pocket money, and that her son and grandson should not keep an eye on her.

"I see. But I think Grandma Zhan is still in good health and has a lot of energy."

Zeng Xiaoya said, "Aside from those elderly people who have worked hard all year round, I rarely see an elderly person with as much energy as your grandmother."

The old lady was ninety years old, which is considered very old for an elderly person.

"That's right. A few years ago, my grandma used to travel around a lot. These past few years, my eldest brother has kept her in check, so she hasn't been able to travel around so much. Now that she's a great-grandmother, she has great-grandchildren to keep her company, so she's not as wild anymore."

Zeng Xiaoya smiled.

Madam Zhan was a very interesting old lady, and she liked her very much.

"Xiaoya, it's late, I won't bother you anymore. You should get some rest, you have to go to work tomorrow. I won't be going to work tomorrow morning, I'm going to accompany my grandma for a medical check-up."

Zeng Xiaoya hummed in agreement, "Goodnight."

She did not repeat Zhan Yue's promise to accompany her grandmother to the medical check-up.

After ending the call, Zeng Xiaoya placed her phone on the bedside table, turned off the light, and lay down.

As she interacted with Zhan Yue more often, she came to think that Zhan Yue was a very nice person. At first, she had some psychological burden, thinking that it would be difficult to get along with a rich young master.

Now I no longer feel that psychological burden. On the contrary, I think that real wealthy young men are well-mannered, without that high and mighty attitude. They are very down-to-earth and approachable.

Especially when Zhan Yue rode his electric bike around buying the materials that Master Tang had given him, it was so down-to-earth.

She had a great experience going out to eat, shop, and watch movies with him.

This is why she was unwilling to listen to her second aunt's advice and ask Zhan Yue to pretend to be her boyfriend so that Lin Xuechang would back down. She was afraid that she would not be able to resist Zhan Yue's charm and would fall in love with him.

Although she knew that the Zhan family valued character more when choosing a wife, and that a clean family background was sufficient, Zeng Xiaoya still lacked confidence.

I'd rather find someone of equal social standing; I won't stoop to such a high social status.

Forcing your way into a circle that doesn't belong to you will be exhausting.

Thinking this through, Zeng Xiaoya sighed inwardly and forced herself to banish Zhan Yue's image from her mind.

He doesn't belong to her.

Zhan Yue, however, drifted off to sleep in a pleasant mood.

She called Zeng Xiaoya and told her about what Lin Xuechang had talked about. When Dr. Lin went to Zeng Xiaoya and spoke ill of him, Zeng Xiaoya didn't think much of it.

She was still the frog in his slowly heating pot, letting him gradually increase the heat.

Nothing more to say all night.

The next morning, after the old lady got up and practiced Tai Chi, she checked the time and guessed that her eldest son had gotten up before she called Zhan Yin.

After Zhan Yin answered the phone, she said to Changsun, "I don't have time to take care of Beibei today. You can take half a day off and stay home to take care of Beibei."

Zhan Yin never asked his grandmother to help him take care of the baby; it was his grandmother who had to keep an eye on her great-granddaughter every day. But even though his grandmother said that, he still asked with concern, "What is Grandma busy with?"

"Where is Grandma planning to sneak off to this time?"

The old lady said, "I need to go to the hospital. I need Lao Ba to come with me. Oh, and Lao Ba also needs to take half a day off today. You older brothers shouldn't give him too much work."
