Feng Nanchen also noticed Lin Yaoyao's distrust of him, but he couldn't explain it clearly now, so he could only think about expressing it through his actions in the future.

He knew that Lin Yaoyao had no romantic feelings for him.

It was his selfishness that forced the two of them to be tied together.

But in that situation, he really had no choice.

He would not marry another woman.

Feng Nanchen either doesn’t fall in love with someone, or if he does, it’s a lifelong thing.

No one else would be in his eyes anymore.

"It's getting late. If you have nothing else, go back first. I should rest too."

"Well... I'm leaving now. You should get some rest and have a sweet dream."

"Ah."

Feng Nanchen noticed her indifference. Although he was mentally prepared, he still couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

Even when he left, Lin Yaoyao didn't see him off, she just sat there in a daze.

Not long after Feng Nanchen left, Lin Zhengping appeared in a menacing manner.

"Yaoyao, is that brat here again?"

"Well, just left."

Lin Yaoyao glanced at her father's expression.

"Dad, do you really want to chase him and beat him up?"

Lin Zhengping gulped down a cup of tea in frustration and said gloomily, "I won't fight anymore. It's a waste of my time!"

"Could it be that you can't beat him, Dad?"

"How...how...how is it possible?! Lin Yaoyao, you are too stingy to your father!"

Lin Zhengping was so angry that he wanted to stand on the table to make himself look more powerful.

But in fact, he felt very weak and he really couldn't beat that brat.

At first he thought they could fight to a draw, but later he unexpectedly found out that Feng Nanchen was not unable to beat him at all.

He was simply leaving room for maneuver.

Perhaps it was to save him some face, or perhaps he had already developed other ideas and wanted to curry favor in front of his future father-in-law.

Lin Zhengping didn't say anything else. He just drank two cups of tea, got angry for a while, and then left dejectedly.

Everyone else in the mansion suffered from insomnia.

Lin Yaoyao was no longer worried and fell asleep as soon as she lay down on the bed.

The next day, Lin Yaoyao felt very strange when she saw her two younger brothers appearing outside her room early in the morning with big dark circles under their eyes.

"Did you two go out to steal last night? Why do you have dark circles under your eyes? You look like iron-eating beasts!"

Lin Youan had a sad face.

"Sister, are you going to get married?"

"An An, don't you want your sister to get married?"

"I don't want to! I want my sister to stay at home and be with me forever."

To Lin Youan, although this sister is not the original sister, she gives him the same feeling as a sister.

Gradually, he let go of his grudge.

This person is my sister!

Naturally, he didn't want his sister to get married. He hoped that his sister would always be just a family member to him.

"But my sister is old enough to get married. She will get married sooner or later!"

"Then please wait a little longer, sister. When I grow up, I will marry you!"

Lin Yaoyao was immediately amused by him.

"But we are brother and sister. How can a brother marry his sister?"

"Why not? If I say yes, then yes!"

"An An is going to be the top scholar, so she can't leave any criticism for others. Things like marrying my sister can never be mentioned."

"Oh~"

"But An An still has to work hard and get the top score in the exam so that she can support her sister. If her sister doesn't have a good life in the future, you can go and take her home!"

"I know, I will try my best!"

After comforting Lin Youan, Lin Yaoyao looked at Lin Nianzhi, who also had dark circles under his eyes.

This was the first time she saw Lin Nianzhi like this.

In her mind, Lin Nianzhi should be the kind of person who is very steady and rational in everything he does.

Even though he was still a child.

"Nianzhi, what's wrong with you now? Is it because of my marriage?"

Lin Nianzhi nodded.

"Yes."

"You don't want your sister to get married either?"

“Not really. I just kept thinking, I’m not trying hard enough.

If my sister were to marry into the royal palace, I, as her younger brother, would not even be qualified to support her.

If my sister is bullied in the palace, I don’t even know if I can seek justice for her.”

Lin Yaoyao touched his head.

She found that Lin Nianzhi seemed to have grown a lot taller, much taller than when he first came back.

"Nianzhi, you have worked very hard, and I believe you will succeed and become a very useful person.

My sister won't let herself be bullied. Have you forgotten that my sister's fists are very hard?

If anyone dares to bully my sister, I will definitely fight back.

When Nianzhi grows up, I won’t do it myself anymore. I’ll wait for you and Youan to fight back for me!”

"Can I really?"

"Of course! I believe you!"

"Then...sister, can you let me see him?"

As if he was afraid that Lin Yaoyao didn't know who "he" was referring to, he deliberately emphasized it again.

"It's Lin...Lin Zhengfeng."

He is still not used to the fact that his former father is suddenly not his father anymore.

But he didn't feel any reluctance to leave Lin Zhengfeng.

Originally, there was no father-son relationship between them, it was just that everyone kept reminding him that he had a father who was a marquis in the capital.

"can."

Lin Yaoyao did not deliberately hide the fact that she locked up Lin Zhengfeng from anyone except Qu Manrong.

Lin Nianzhi knew that it was a normal thing.

She hid it from Qu Manrong because she was afraid that she would get too excited and become physically unwell.

If Lin Nianzhi wanted to see her, she would take him to see her.

She sent Lin Youan back first, and then took Lin Nianzhi to the basement where Lin Zhengfeng was imprisoned.

In order not to affect Qu Manrong, she specially asked someone to dig a new entrance leading directly from the back garden to the underground secret room.

There was no light in the entire secret room until the two of them entered, and then it was illuminated by the night pearl.

Lin Zhengfeng collapsed to the ground. Unable to adapt to the sudden light, he quickly used his arms to block his eyes.

Lin Yaoyao didn't even need to do anything herself, as Lin Zhengfeng had been tortured to the point of being worse off than death by the poisonous insects over the past two days.

After getting used to it, Lin Zhengfeng finally saw the person coming.

The moment he saw Lin Nianzhi appear, Lin Zhengfeng was extremely excited.

"Nianzhi, you're here?! Are you here to save your father? Quick, hurry and save your father!"

Not only did Lin Nianzhi not move, he even took two steps back.

He demanded, "Father? But are you really my father?"

"Why not? If you were not my son, how could you be so smart?"

"But the fact is, you are not my father, are you?"

"Impossible! You are my son! My own child, how could I not know?"

Lin Nianzhi walked towards him slowly, with no expression on his face.

No heartache, no excitement.

He doesn't care whether Lin Zhengfeng is his father or not!
