Arranged marriage, love blossoms: Marrying into a wealthy family while holding a miniature version o

Qin Dongyu's face instantly lit up with a smile: "Pingting, what are you doing?"

"I was just in class, learning about infant and toddler care."

A gentle, quiet voice came from inside, as if the person knew nothing at all.

Dong Pingting sighed inwardly.

After learning that Wenren Chen had a son, her younger cousin did not give up. Instead, she enrolled in various training courses to learn how to raise a child.

I really, really like this.

I'd rather be a stepmother than a lover.

It was her; she wouldn't agree.

Qin Dongyu put down his coffee cup, saying helplessly, "Pingting, you and Sixth Brother are not a good match. Let's just forget about it."

"My cousin knows many outstanding and kind-hearted boys, and they are no less than my sixth brother."

"..."

As Dong Pingting listened to the words coming from her phone, her fingers tightened their grip on the phone.

Qin Dongyu listened to the silence on the phone and sighed: "I know what you're thinking, but you're an innocent girl with a good family background, good looks, and a good education. Why would you want to be someone's stepmother?"

"Your cousin feels sorry for you."

"I don't want you to suffer."

Dong Pingting's lips twitched, then slowly curved upwards, and that gentle smile returned to her face, flawless.

"Cousin, did Aunt Sheng call you?"

Hearing the still gentle voice on the phone, Qin Dongyu felt a pang of heartache.

It's not easy to like someone for so many years.

"Yes, Mom just called me and said that Yuyu has a bad temper and she's worried that your gentle nature won't be able to handle it and that you'll suffer because of her."

"Mom said she'll introduce you to a more suitable boy when the opportunity arises."

She was given the opportunity, but she didn't seize it, and there's nothing anyone can do about it.

Moreover, from her perspective as the older cousin, this is for the best.

Dong Pingting has always suffered injustices in the past, so it's a good thing to end her hopes now.

There are many good boys in the world, and it wouldn't be difficult for Dong Pingting to find someone who matches her.

Dong Pingting still had that gentle smile on her face: "Okay, I understand, thank you, cousin."

There was nothing unusual about her voice; it was just like any other day.

There was absolutely no fluctuation.

Qin Dongyu frowned, worried that she was still not giving up, and said, "Pingting, you are my cousin, so I won't keep some things to myself and will tell you directly."

"Cousin, what is it?"

“When Mom agrees, she really means it; when she doesn’t agree, she really doesn’t agree. If you’re going to go after her without her consent, you’re lowering your own status and losing face for your family.”

“Mom despises this kind of person the most. They don’t know the bigger picture and are selfish.”

"do you understand?"

Dong Pingting's eyes flickered, and she said, "I understand."

Hearing her earnest answer, Qin Dongyu finally felt a little relieved, and her voice softened: "Cousin knows that you have liked Sixth Brother for ten years. It won't be easy to give him up now, but time always heals all wounds."

"You're still young now, you'll understand in time."

"Ok, I know."

"My cousin knows a lot of promising and excellent young men. When I have time, I'll help you screen them and find a guy who matches you."

"Okay, thank you, cousin."

She agreed, and Qin Dongyu smiled, saying, "Then you go ahead with your work. We sisters can get together properly when we have time."

"Ok."

Qin Dongyu finally breathed a sigh of relief after hanging up the phone.

She had just been worried that her little cousin would be stubborn and impossible to reason with, but now she realized she had been overthinking it.

That's true. My aunt is such a strong-willed person, so naturally the children she raises know what's important.

As Dong Pingting listened to the busy tone on her phone, the smile on her face gradually faded until it disappeared completely.

Will time heal all wounds?

is it?

But why, as each day and night of these past ten years has passed, has she not forgotten him, but instead grown to like him even more?

Even love.

Her fingertips tightened their grip on the phone, and her beautiful almond-shaped eyes narrowed slightly, revealing for the first time a clear desire to possess it.

Extremely strong.

It was so intense it was frightening.
