To make up for the debt owed to Lin Qingping and Gu Juncheng

There's no such thing as a blind date...

Her relatives were indeed making arrangements, but she was unwilling. Her mother and brother never pressured her; in fact, they stood in front of her and refused on her behalf.

But now that things have come to this point, we have to have this person even if we don't already.

As she pondered, Zhiyuan had already smiled, a smile that was both bitter and somewhat forlorn.

"It seems I've really put you in a difficult position."

Qingtian raised her head, smiled faintly, her gaze looking in his direction, but landing on an unknown place behind him. "He is really a good person."

"Okay, I understand." Zhiyuan took a deep breath. "Then, I'll head back now. If you have time to visit the capital, remember to look me up, and I'll treat you to a meal."

"Okay." Her smile seemed etched onto her face.

"Goodbye."

"Goodbye."

Zhiyuan smiled again, turned and left, never looking back.

Qingtian watched his retreating figure, her smile unchanged, but tears welled up in her eyes.

When she got home, Qingtian was a little lost and was stopped by her mother and Qingtian who were waiting at home.

Qingtian knew what they wanted to ask, so she just shook her head and was about to go into her room, but her mother pulled her back.

Qinglang also asked her, "What exactly happened between you and Zhiyuan?"

"Nothing's wrong," Qing Tian said calmly. "He went back and came to say goodbye."

This can be seen as a final farewell to her brief and beautiful time.

Sunny's mother couldn't stand it any longer. She grabbed her hand and asked, "I don't think it's that simple. Sunny, tell me properly, what exactly happened?"

Qingtian remained silent, looking at her brother and mother's expectant and anxious eyes, and finally said, "Mother, brother, so what if he's not simple? Am I good enough for him?"

Both Sunny's mother and Sunny's eyes darkened.

“Mom, brother, Zhiyuan’s family has been very kind to us. We can never repay them enough in our lifetime. But at least we should not cause them any trouble or hinder their lives. Otherwise, wouldn’t that be repaying kindness with ingratitude? Don’t you think so?” The girl, who had been timid and hesitant in front of Zhiyuan, was unusually determined at this moment.

Sunny's mother sighed, and Qinglang's face also darkened completely, but they both nodded in agreement with Sunny's point of view.

“Zhiyuan comes from a good family and is an outstanding person. If he has a good in-law family to help him, their combined strength will make his future even brighter,” Qingtian’s mother sighed.

Qinglang agreed, patting Qingtian on the shoulder, "Our Qingtian is no less than you, but I respect your opinion. It's okay, I'll take care of you for the rest of my life!"

Qingtian smiled and said, "Okay! As long as I can stay with my brother and mother, I will be very happy."

Zhiyuan went home.

Lunch is being prepared at home.

Lin Qingping and Gu Juncheng have reconciled. The two are busy in the kitchen. Zhangzhu is holding a computer and is still studying Lin Qingping's novel, taking notes as she reads.

You're so serious about reading a novel? No wonder you're your mom's biggest fan.

Zhiyuan originally wanted to go into the kitchen to help, but Lin Qingping and Gu Juncheng were talking inside, their voices were very soft and he couldn't hear what they were saying. But Zhiyuan felt that he might be going in at the wrong time...

So he sat down next to Zhangzhu to see what she was writing down.

The title of the notebook was: A review of Lu Zhian's most attractive moments to girls.

Zhiyuan was watching and unconsciously read the sentence aloud, which startled Zhangzhu, who quickly covered his mouth and tried to signal him not to make a sound.

"It was Dad who asked me to summarize this; I guess he wants to learn it," Zhangzhu whispered in his ear.

Zhiyuan: ...

Gu's father is truly a lifelong learner, especially when it comes to figuring out how to please his mother. He's never really improved...
